The, next letter was business letter,
In which the writer tells her that he
had paid his former wife, from whom
he had been divorced, $1,000 due on
allmony, and that as soon as he paid
her $4,000 more he would be clear of
her.
A third letter Is written from Beach
House, Castleton, Isle of Man, Eng
land. In it the writer says he has been
singing Bring Back My Bonnie" again
But "absence makes the heart grow
fonder," he writes and he win soon see
her again.
Then cloud appears on their hori-
zon, for in the next letter the writer
states he has received "horrid' let
ter from her, and any one that had
mentioned Ada Conger to her only did
1t 10 make trouble. He assures her
there is nothing in 1t at all and wants
her to write him a nice letter. Ada
Cenger is now Mrs. william L. d.
Carey.
There is plenty of sentiment but no
talk of marriage in the letters. Miss
Bonne, however, has assured her at
torhey that she can show by the pro-
prietor of the st, Charles hotel in
Chicago and other witnesses that he
said he would marry her.

THE SUCCESSFUL MAN.

The man who accomplishes things in this worlt
necessarily makes enemies for all mediocracy rise
against him His achievements are fninimized anf
his failures magnifed- but his plans are stolen anf
his methods adopted without credit.
Were 1t not possible TO do this, yituperation. rid
cnle and malice are employed to detract attention
from the plain evidence of lack of ability on Tho
part OF those who mouth their spleen.
Criticism Is easier than accomplishment but snee
is poor substitute for deeds done
The primitive man who first demonstrated the feas
bllity OF making skin clothing for himself probably
had to encounter the dersion Of his denser minded
tribe, just his later brethren had to undergo !
like experience when they began to make civilization
possible
Honest emulation Is open fattery, but carping
criticism is the hand-maiden Of dishonesty. Still
the successful man mounts to higher planes over the
shoulder of his critics He saves the breath for re-
newed effort while they waste theirs in empty va
porings. He acts while they hesitate he works while
they wait
That is why there is always one man in a com
munity who is conspicuous by contrast, and why
also, there is always one interest one corporation
or one association which overtops all Others
The best banker in town did not inherit his bust
ness genius He worked. If he had stopped to listen
to his critics he would have fallen far short of the
mark. He would not have escaped criticism even
then for failure is fertile field for malicious com
ment.
All Of which goes to prove that it does not make
much difference what we do in this world, as long
as it Is honest We cannot escape the critic but we
at least confuse him by making him appear in the
light of false prophet, and we can also reap what
EYER material reward hard work brings which is
more than chronic kicker can look forward to- Il

NEW GEOGRAPHICAL CLOCK.
II Indicates the Time Of Every Part
Of the World.

An interesting clock was recently
completed by Charles u. Davis. of Chi
cago, says the jewelers. Circular. Ge-
o%eraphical clocks. or clocks which In
dictate the time in every part or the
world, are by no means new. but MI.
Davis invention is said to possess
many novel features.
The dial is totally unlike that of the
ordinary time recorder. in that 1t con-
tains $50 marks where the minute
marks are usually placed. these marks
representing the $50 degrees of the
earth's surface. On the outer circle
of the dial, where the twelve hour rep
reservations are usually placed, are
twenty-four figures representing he
full day. The minutes are denoted by
marks o nthe outer circle, but two dots
are required for five minutes, because
there are twice as many characters on
the face as on the ordinary clock.
The dial is divided in the center from
the six mark TO the opposite six mark
The twelve hours of the day are dis
tinguished by light spaces n the re-
naming twelve hours by dark Spaces
The hOur hand is stationary at he
point which is made the central time.
while the minute hand revolves as on
the ordinary clock.
To determine the time 1t is only nee
essary to locate the city or country on
the red dial and rcad the time In rela-
ton to il as on an ordinary clock.

The AMERICAN HUSBAND.
He Is One of the Most Satisfactory o.
Our Products.

London Telegraph: So many good
things come from America nowadays
that one hardly experiences a shock
on learning that America is also claim
ing to produce husbands which are al
most ideal. The American middle-class
husband is as perfect as 1t is possible
Tor any man to be. He has only one
failing-he does not put by money in
to provide for the happy
home" When he marries it is usually
on short notice, and because he has fall
len very desperately in love with some
n and cannot find it in his heart to
wait until cold caution declares the
venture advisable. Even when an IN
gagement is a long one he usually
squanders SO much on gifts and enter
tainments for his fiancee that there is
only q Very moderate amount to begin
housekeeping on.
But this Is only an early evidence OF
his chief national characteristic as IL
husband-his unfailing, unselAsh and
aimost improvident generosity. He is
liberal to the point of extravaganza in
his money relations with his wife. The
young American husband expects to
provide well II literally for his house,
old. He is also very indulgent to his
wife's fondness for fine clothes. He
would a dowdy me-. and although he.
grumbles occasionally at a millinery
uili' III reality ne SiOrleS IN the re-
spiendent appearance of his wife in her
fine feathers, n would max n sac
rif1ce that his pride might be ministered
to In this one particular.
A true American husband who has
beer out late always takes of his shoes
at the front door and undresses in the
dark. OF course he frequently lapses
from This path when matrimony has
become an older joy. but, as a rule. he
is extremely devoted to his home, and
shows yer little desire for pleasures
outside of it. Indeed. the fault which
American wives very frequently find
In their husbands is that they are too
fond of their homes. In many house,
holds the husband is unwilling to sacri-
flee his desire for an evening at his
own fireside to take his wife abroad in
search Of pleasure.
