Il promise you, Lloyd-it shall never
pass my lips until you come to claim
me as your wife," was the quiet but
earnest reply. "And, Lloyd, you will
hurry back to me soCn-you will not
stay longer than you can help, and you
will be true to me?" she pleaded, look
ing straight into his eyes with an ex-
preston of dumb agony.
Little one, there was no need to ask
me that" Lloyd Langham smillngly re-
sponded. "Of course l shall hurry
back to you the moment am at liberty
to do so. and / shall be as true as
truth itself. Surely you trust me, my
sweet wife?"
Yes, | trust you; II l did not

He folded her once more to his heart,
kissed her upon the brow, cheek and
lips, murmuring words of passionate
endearment, and the next moment was
gone.
Grazia stood where he left her until
the door closed after him and the last
sound of his footsteps on the pavement
died away; then, with moan OF an
guish she threw herself upon a couch
near her, and her long restrained grief
burst forth.
She lay there for half an hour. sob

Then slight movement attracted

Among the many bright women in
the New York State Federation Is Miss
Mabel Potter. Being newspaper NO
man Miss Potter wss recently asked to
give her views of club women from the
reporters standpoint. 1t is the knife
which cuts sharply and to the very Gen.
ter OF the disease which brings relief,
health and strength. This may be the
result of some of the sharp truths she
expressed. and the free, yet tactiul, ex.
position che made OF the vulnerable
points of clubdom. Its benefit may he
far-reaching, for what is true in one
locality is more or lees true generally.
Miss Potter said in part:
There is a humorous side to the club
proceedings, although the members
themselves are 80 deadly. seriously in
earnest thst it never strikes them. We
reporters, on the other hand. who are so
thoroughly in the club worlG, if not of
it, are impressed most forcibly with Just
that phase. 1t is fortunate that we are,
too. for it is the only variety that adds a
zest OF enjoyment in orr monotonous
club rounds. For you must remember,
ladies. that going to clubs as business
every hour in the day and every day 10
the week, as newspaper women must. is
slightly different from going for recrea-
ton as club women do! 1t is always
possible, you know, to get too much Of a
good thing. and steady diet Of even the
best of papers and addresses is apt to
pail upon ones taste. We get rather
an overdose some times. That is why
we do go thoroughly appreciate what
ever of humor there is in the situation.
Moreover it's our business to give to the
public what we see. just 80 sure. though,
as We liven up report with bit OF the
humor which a meeting sffoi ded, We are
accused Of making fun of club women
and there is an immediate consultation
held on the advisability of excluding re-
porters from the session.! Right here l
might drop a gentle hint to the ladies,
that that's just the way how not to do
it. A dozen reporters inside, let me
assure you, ladiee, are ten thousand
times safer to your interests than
single one shut out! think one OF the

the heaviest books know personally
that one Of the clubs is devoted to the
study of sociology. We have young
women who write papers on original
philosophical subjects, on strictly lit
erary subjects and on subjects pertain
ing more strictly to feminine life. Our
women are not blue stockings. but
simply full-orbed human beings. From
my observation and experience | will
say that here the literary women are
much more literary than the men. 1
find that the discussion OF looks is one
of the chief subjects with our young
persons; not novels, but scientific theo-
ries like evolution, art, ethics, etc.
Many OF our women are conversant with
Haeckel, Wiseman, Tarde. Spencer.
Ward and GiddiDgs. find that they
read George Moor, George Gissing,
Thomas Hardy, Meredith; that they
really get to the bottom of literature;
that they love it for its own cake. only
wish the men were as literary as the wO-
men. but, alas! money-making is too ex-
citing a game to be given up for the
harmless study OF literature.
The following ccgent reasons for be
longing to a WomaI's club I clip from
the Kansas City Star:
We like this comradeship-
The warmth of heart we find revealed
Besides the brightness of each mind
Puts searehlieht on Our own, to find
If any thoughts lie nesting there
That we, perchAnce, with friends may
share
And though we find the little new
Is not arranged, but all askew,
And small results our search attains
II clears the cobwebs from our brains.

to secure were: the extension OF the
U. S. Constitution with no modif
cation or colonial treatment; the
public land, in Hawaii to be ad
ministered by territorial officers
and under Hawaiian land lave, and
an independent Judiciary, which in
my opinion was best secured by
presidential appointment. l also
desired a constitutional U. S. Court,
and this was voted 10y the House,
but rejected by the Senate, which
substituted a Federal Court for ad.

Senators thought, an implication

A strong effort was made to send
the Bill to the Ipsular Committees,

vent such course will never be ap-
