The face of the other woman was
drama during this TRADE. With the
self-possession of the born aristocrat
she maintained her entire dignity and
possession; but it was evident
from the first how strongly she was
moved and how deeply she was
shocked. When the dressmaker
paused for breath she stepped for

upon Dollie's shoulder.

: The following may have bearing or
the general conditions Of the present
day In our cities. It is a true story:
A friend of mine, physician, has
given much of his energy and scien
tific skill to work among poor chill
dren. One of his methods of helping
them is to take them on a weeks
camping expedition in the country
One night as he sat around the. camp
fire with his little friends, telling
them stories, he beckoned to him one
of the littlest boys, who was sitting
apart from the others, and who some
how invited "mothering" without
asking for it.
Climb up here in my lap," said the
doctor, and the child did so so eager
ly, smuggling to his friend with a sigh
of contentment
Presently he looked up into the dos
tors face and said thoughtfully, az
though he had been considering the
subject for some time. my mothe,

''Never holds you in her lap, you
mean, Arthur"
"No-never does"
well, why not?"
Drearily, but with entire resigna
tion, the child answered:
"She works.

HORSE WAS A TRUE SPORT.

But It Is Doubtful If His New Owne,
Appreciated Him.
A shrewd old Yankee horse-trader
after years of success of a kind tc
make David Harum look small, got
badly stuck on nag so feeble and
spiritless that it squatted like a jack,
rabbit every time its ribs were
touched. Th new owner felt very
sore, but determined to do what he
could to retrieve. He invited dea;
con of the village church for ride:
and himself rode the new horse. See
ing a rabbit, he jabbed the horse with
his heels, and d=~the;; animal promptly
squatted. When the deacon inquired
the cause, the trader explained that
the horse had the faculties of a set
ter, and set whenever he saw game.
A rise of partridges brought forth
another manifestation, through the
traders heels; and then the deacon
insisted on trading his own horse and
$50 for the sporting equine. On the
way home, the deacon rode his new
purchase. Fording stream, he
raised his feet to keep them dry and
accidently jabbed the horse in the
ribs, whereupon the animal sat down
in the water, wetting the rider from
feet to chest.

the deacon. "He can't see no birds
nor rabbits now!"

dressed young man, pacing moodily
to and fro in the shadows of the ware
house at the end of the square, looked
and felt just about as much out of

His was the old, old story of mans
surrender to the fatal fascinations of
a pretty face, and he was wondering,
with increased irritation, why he had
ever permitted himself to become SO
miserably entangled with that portion.

dering, too, why he had not long since

Such a mesalliance could nots result

She was too proud, he knew, to do

Never had there been such a gor.
geous wedding scene in the social
annals OF the city. The church was
crowded with the fashion, beauty and
chivalry of the most exclusive circles.
The floral decorations were something
marvellous; the costumes beyond
even the female society reporter. At
the appointed hour the groom stepped
from the room assigned to him, &C.
:companied by his. best man, 4 and
moved toward the altar, just as the
bride, arrayed only as wealth car

preceded by pretty flower girl and
followed by splendid array. of brides.
maids, all yelled. They met at the
altar and the ceremony. began. The
great audience craned it's collective
neck to hear the responses.
DO you, Florence, take this man
to be your welded husband, to cleave
unto him, forsaking all others, to
love, honor and obey him until death
you do part?" read the clergyman
solemnly in his most sonorous voice.
He paused and comfortably awaited
the response.
Then came the crash from the clear
sky.
"No, l do not" replied the woman
at the altar in a clear, tense tone,
throwing aside her veil and disclosing
a face of ashen color strangely set.
"God help me, I cannot. l."
my God, Florence, what does this
meant" exclaimed the groom aghast.
"Silence," commanded the woman,
turning upon him with flashing eye.
II will not because l cannot in the
sight of God and man. will not
and cannot because this man belongs
to another-to a girl whom he has
deceived and intended to betray. But,
good friends, you will not be cheated
of the wedding you came to see. The
bride-the real bride-is here, and
the ceremony will go on" and with
an imperious gesture she motioned
forward Dollie Culver from her brides
maids, lifted the veil from her fright
ened face and, turning to the clergy
man, said:
Proceed, sir, the bride and the
bridegroom are ready"
The reverend father caught the
poetic justice of the occasion and
sternly began the service over again.
The startled groom, unable. to gather
together. lis scattered senses, mum.
:bled along the responses and in a
trice the closing words were spoken
and the Four Hundred were making
their way to the door, amid rattle
of tongues that would have put tn ,
tower of Babel to sleep in a cradle.

be bitter sacrifice, he knew; but
he owed it to her and to the best OF
his manhood.
The resolution brought strange
peace, a feeling of exultation, to him.
He was going to escape from this
thraldom of selfshmess and be a
man. He was going to defy the fury
of paternal anger, the popgun criti-
cism of whilona friends, the chilling
ostracism Of society, and act an hon
orable part toward the girl whose
heart was SO completely his.
After all, his little romance was to
have the trite matrimonial ending.

Realty Market is prowsy.

The realty market is lazy, but steady
sales are, registered. -.
Buyers seem to be looking ahead earlier
this year to tax time. The approach Of
January always depresses activity. Pur-
chasers try to avoid assuming the taxes
on property they buy so until after the
first Of the year sales slack up. for this
reason.
Some late sales are reported as follows:
The u. s. Installment Realty company
has sold 20S. acres north of city on the
river road for $1,000; forty acres in Fridley
for $4,000; also ten acres in same town. for
$500; house, 3840 Clinton avenue; two lots

of the lake is grand. The few lots that
are left are being picked up by people who
admire the beauties Of nature and people
who can see into the future and know the
