An exchange tells that young mar
ried woman recently gave her husband
sealed letter, which he was to read
when he got to his office. He did SO,
and the letter ran as follows: 81 am
obliged to tell you something that
may give you pain, but there is no
help for it. You should know every
thing whatever be the consequences.

me, with bitter reproach, for you will
have to put up with your share of the

brow of the husband who was pre-
pared for the worst. Tremblingly
he read on: Our coal is all gone.

~1HE spring round ups were all
over and Bruce had nothing
s1SSfY1 to do but to loaf about the
EsGa4J Stopping Place, drinking old
Latour's bad whisky and making him
self a nuisance. In vain the Pilot
tried to win him with loans of books
and magazines and other kindly cour-
tesies. He would be decent for day
and then would break forth in violent
argumentation against religion and all
who held to 1t. He sorely missed the
Duke, who was away south on one or
his periodic journeys, OF which no one
knew anything or cared to ask. The
