1t was not until o'clock She then
resolved to appear at dinner and
show him that she was as Indifferent

packing hand sacael and appeared at
the dinner table more radiant than
ever She seated herself at the old

had the audacity to appear. Yes, sure

away still leaning adoringly over that
terrible woman with the dusky olive
skin and brilliant eyes. 1t was evil
dence of her GOODNESS that she de-

Once during the meal he glanced to-

watching for somebody.
In the meantime Tom had made the
excuse of the afternoon cigar in or
der to get away and meet his brother
and new Sister-in-law at the train and
arrange for proper denoucment. At
the depot he learned that the train
upon which they We're coming had
been detained by a wreck. A train
was going in that direction and would
ride distant. the station agent assured
him. So he decided to ride out and
meet them and ride back with them.
IL would be much more pleasant than
waiting about the depot.
But alas for human plans, the wreck
was cleared much sooner than ex-
pected and when Tom arrived at the
station where he expected to meet it
he learned to his chagrin that it had
already passed and the more alarm
ing news that there was not another
train his way for two hours. He

"What Makes a Man7r

''Not numerous years noT heightened life,
Nor pretty children and a wife,
Nor pins ana chains and fancy rings,
Nor any such like trumpory things;
Nor pipes, cigars nor bottled wine;
Nor liberty with kings to dine;
Nor coat nor boot nor yet a hat;
Nor master, reverend sir, nor squire
with titles that the memory tire;
Nor ancestry traced back to win.
Who went from Normandy to kill.
Nor judges robes nor mayors mace,
Nor crown that decks the royal race
These all united never can
Enlarge the soul to make the man.
"a truthful soul. n loving mind
Full Of affection for its kind;
a helper at the human race;
a soul of beauty and of grace;
\ spirit firm, erect and free,
That never hascly bends the knee;
That will not bear a feathers weight
OF slavery's chains for small or great;
That firmly apcaks Of God within
Ana never makes n league with sin;
That snaps the letters dcsputs make;
That loves the truth for its own sake;
That worships God ana only God;
That trcmblCs at no tyrant's nod
Ana thus can smile in curse and ban
That is the soul that makes the man"

settlement it was agreed that 81 per
cent should be added to the assessed
valuation of 1900 and upon that
