1t was an engagement ring. The en-
gagement which il solemnized did not
have the approval of the woman's
father, who threatened TO disinherit
her If she persisted in it. She married
the man of her choice in disregard of
the parental authority. and her father
cut her off in his will. She gave the

Preparing For a Tourney.

Jerome X. Jerome recalled, with
reverence. a habit Of his methodical
uncle who, before packing for a Jour-
ney. always made a list" This was
the system which he followed, gather
ed from his uncfe's own lips:
Take n piece of paper and put down
on 1t everything you can possibly re-
Quire. Then go over 1t and see that it
confirms nothing you can possibly do
without. 81 ST. .sssslisa9 = : .'gss.s'ss~

you got on? Yssy yell ras i s ssg :,

have finished. Then take your clothes
Begin at your feet. What DO you wear
or your feet? Boots, shoes. socks. put
them down. Work up till you get to
your head. What do you want besides
clothes? Put down everything.
This is the plan the old gentleman al
ways pursued. The list made, be would
20 over II carefully TO see that he had
forgotten nothing. Then he would go
over il again and strike out everything
IL was possible to dispense with. Then
he woul! lose the list.
