It was some time before Miss
Martha could quiet her, which she
did, evidently, by saying: "Burn it,!
burn it!''
Then Miss Matilda took up the let.
ter and held it over the candle.
"And even now,'' she said, hyster-
ically, 1--WE do not know which it was
intended for. Let me say it was for
me; deserve it, though I never was

I took it because I envied you every.
thing"
"No, no." corrected Miss Martha,
quickly; II was not as pretty as you;
I was older; there was pathos about
you being an orphan with only an
uncle's house for a home-in my Sc
cret heart I may have thought that
the letter as we hoped it was was
meant for YOU"
Her eyes were on the paper that
shriveled under the flame until il
fluttered to the table, a mere black

wagging tentatively.

dence in Jimmy Jones after that.

When a member of the royal family
comes to dinner It Is point Of ctl-
Quette to provide none but the illustri-
GUS guest with a finger bowl at the end
of the banquet. The other diners must
get on somehow without that conven-
fence.
The reason Is curious one. In early
Georgian days one never knew who
was loyal. Every other man might be
q Jacobitc In his secret heart. Now, 1t
was piece of Jacobite ritual whencv-
or the toast of "Thc King" was drunk
secretly to pass the goblet over any
water that happened to be by the
drnker. This was supposed to con-
vert the toast into that Of "The King
Over the Water" the eXiled Stuart Mt
Rome or st. Germans.
On this becoming known the court
insisted that there should be no water
within reach of any guest. and the pro-

SHELTON.

FOR PERMANENT ROAD IMPROVEMENTS Upon petition of a number of the take action on improving some of the from Wooster street, now called Shel- ton avenue, to be done under the State law. The other was to grade hill
 west of the residence of D.'P. LOverin, in the Walnut Tree Hill district. The Town voted to appropriate for the next two years the sum of 5000, (twO- thirds to come from the State) for the | improvement of the roads in town, one | half to be laid out within this borough, and the other ihalf without reference to location, thus practically ignoring the | first petition. The matter of grading the hill mentioned was laid over until the October meeting, although MT Loverin.Offered to do the work for SlOO, and the town appropriated $50. Take it all in all, it was queer town meet ing.
