Hero
Surrender

wv HILE NOT approaching the
w tragical, Miss Harmon's life
W had in il the tragic significance
of meagreness, not the pathetic kind
of the isolated, but where success had
failed to bring anticipated satisfaction.
DIR. Carroll had warned her. He
had furthermore stated his opinion
that while it was very well for a horse
TO have one idea, it wasn't equally so
far human being.
Freedom of speech evidenced their
friendship; the confidence that no hurt
was intended allowed none.
So congenial were they that he did
not realize how much at variance were
their ideas of life until he asked her to
share his lot.
"Yours?" she questioned significant
ly.
Yes" almost sternly, divining the
purport OF her thoughts. Mine is
broader; 1t can encompass you; yours
does not go beyond your music. 1 do
not wish to enter upon a semblance OF
marriage. 1t would be so IL you clung
to your work. should be secondary
in your thoughts. | should be Mrs.
Carroll's husband. / do not want a
to exemplify Platos theory. l want
wife; want love, home; / want you.
Dorothy"
There" she cried, nervously, twist
ing her rings, that is what fear. Oh,
I'm afraid to love you"
Look here. look to me; do YOU mean
YOU weigh a mans honest love in the
scale Of your idea of a work and find
it wanting?" He watched her earnest
face, pathetic In it's struggle,
81 do like YOU" she faltered.
He smiled encouragingly.
Better than anyone else" she con-
tinued II should hate to give you up
entirely"
could you?" he askeSstenderly.
"Yes." She did not meet his eyes.
TITS your music, is it?'
She nodded an affirmation.
She did not see him again until the
night OF the Thurston reception.
He was standing in the doorway
leading from the reception room to a
less occupied one beyond,
She cast an appealing glance as she
| passed through on young Edson's arm.
His glance betrayed no comprehen-
sion, but she felt he understood.
They stopped in obedience TO the
Doctors detalning gesture.
Excuse me just a moment. I may
not get to see you again, Edison, and
wanted to say hear you are going to
Europe about the same time we are"
nodding toward Miss Harmon. I'VE
go right after our marriage next
raontb on1 we shall no plaaSad IN
meet you abroad"
He had turned to her the instant
they were alone, with outstretched
arms,
She had risen: suppressed anger,
scorn and contempt found expression
for the moment in her face: words
seemed hard to utter,
"You-you," she faltered, dare you

j, decrease; l. increase.
It will be seen by the foregoing table
that the total increase of the city Is
but $26,57S and of this the Sixth ward
bears $26,30S, the Third $2,75S, and the
Fifth sl65. The other three wards have
shown decrease in property valua-
tions of $2,764. 1t seems peculiar that
the Sixth ward Is the only one In the
city to be prosperous. One OF the items
in the list is s275S1, charged up to the
improved new breaker of the Delaware
and Hudson company, but where the
other changes have been to bring this
ward up with such boom it is not yet
stated.
The slight increase in the Third ward
is due to the improvements made by
the Central Pennsylvania Brewing
company. One of the assessors says
that not more than four new houses
have been built in the city during the
past year. The improvements made at
the Electric Light company's plant and
the new buildings erected by the Car
bondale Gas company do not AFFECT the
valuation, because these companies pay
tax on their capital stock and do not
have to pay other taxes.

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelle0
the silly notion that one kind Of
food is needed for brain, another fo1
muscles, and still another for bones.
A correct diet will not only nurish
a particular part of the body, but il
will sustain every other part. Yet,
however good your food may be, its
nutriment is destroyed by indiges-
ton or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower, the
favorite medicine of the healthy
millions. A few doses aids diges-
ton, stimulates the liver to healthy
action, purifies the blood, and makes
you feel houyant and vigorous. You
can get DR.. g. G.. Green's reliable
remedies at Fox Bros. Get Green's

Late Wisconsin News.

missing about four days his
father went to look for him at
the home of friends near Waba-
sha and found that the boy had
not been there. Investigation
showed he had driven north from
Nelson and offered his team and
rig for sale.
The climax was capped when
both Mr.. Greve and Arenz
received letters from st. Paul,
the former from his wife, and
the latter from his boy, stating
that they were never coming
back and that their past here
was dead and buried. Neither
one mentioned the other, but
suspicion was aroused and Mr..
Greve went to the sanity city,
but found no trace of the fugi-
tiveS.
1t is said that a couple answer
ing the description was seen at
Prescott about Nov. 1. Now they
are gone many things that went
unnoticed before appear sus-
picious and the two families sus-
pect that an elopement had been
planned for some time. The
woman is AZ yeas of age, while
young Arenz is but 81 and looks
much younger.
Mrs. Greve deserted her hus-
band. with seven children aged
from 2 to 13 years. He is very
respectable man and his neigh
bors feel for him in the sad
plight his wife has plunged him
into. It is rumored that young
Arenz was thwrated by his par
ents in some love affair and that
this may have partly impelled
him to this rash act.
