Hanna" He said lie never, never could
consent 10 such choice for his child
Gussie Rhodes told her father, with
many reassuring embrace, that she
would never marry without his con-
sent, and she added: But, papa dear,
shall never marry any man but Mark
Hanna"
Then she promised her father not TO
see her lover or write to him for
year at least She kept her promise,
and In the course of few weeks, nj
though she never audibly murmured,
and was sweetly gentle and loving to
all about her, she grew pale and wan.
She neither ate nor slept. The old
father was at his wits end. Some one
proposed Il foreign tour for that
change OF scene which is supposed to
work wonders In heart affections, and,
presto! few hours notice. father,
mother and daughter were on board an
Atlantic liner.
For nearly year the change OF
scene" prescription was faithfully pur-
sued. and the patient. always cheer-
fully submissive, gentle and charming,
obviously grew frazier day by day. Al
most in despair the old man brought
his child home again, and one morn
ing he gathered the courage to ask her
il she still cared for Mark Hanna
why. father" she replied, Il shall
always love Mark; l told you that, you
know, a year ago"
Poor old Uncle Dan Rhodes! That
was a bitter day for him, but he was
equal to the occasion. Sending for the
obscure young man. he said to him.
"Mr. Hanna Gussie loves you; that
Is my only reason for accepting you as
her future husband You.are poor. I'll
fix 1t so Gussie can live as she has
been accutomed to and l suppose |
must see you marry her"
Now the coming young man cast
ever so slight shadow of his future
greatness on the opportunity OF tho
present.
"Mr. Rhodes" said he, 81 most CRATE
fully accept the gift of your daughters s
love. To marry her is for this world
to become paradise for me, but | can
not make her my wife unless she will
be content to live as my means will
enable us. can neither accept aid
nor permit my wife to accept II FROM
any one"
\ So Mark Hanna and Gussie Rhodes
were married and the bride went from
her fathers big house to live In tiny
little cottage where with one maid-of'
work she was as happy as queen for
some years.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

"Miilions for Defense"

A prominent naval officer tells a
story of the days just previous to the
Spanish-AmericaI, war, when Theodore
Roosevelt was assistant Secretary of
the Navy. One day Mr.. Roosevelt, as
sisted by Lieut.. Sharpe, had concluded
certain negotiations looking to the pur
chase of vessels suitable for scout
duty. To this end the two officials
had expended about three million dol
lars of Uncle Sans money.
When the days work had been COM
pleted and the two We're ready to leave
the department, Mr.. Roosevelt observ-
ed that it was raining.
well, Sharpe said Mr.. Roosevelt,

but three.cents in my pocket, you'll

II haven't a cent, ,"-he said
Mr.. Roosevelt burst into loud
laugh.
"Well, never mind, old man." said
he. "This only goes to show what an

HOW HANNA WON HIS WIFE.

Nearly thirty eight years ago Mark

He was poor, plodding, and to the cas-
uaf observer avery every day sort of
.young man. Daniel Rhodes was one
of the rich coal owners OF the State.

ARCTIC EXPLORATION.
Is the Object Sought Really Worth All
the Time, Ex pense and Troublef

Mr.. Peary is going on another hunt
for the North Pole. The layman Is
sometimes apt to pause and ask him
self whether, after all, the business of
Arctic explorat ton is worth while. The
history of such exploration is story
of long effort.
AS long ago as 1853 Sir Hugh VIII
loughby, with several other command
ers, led the way into the frozen north
in the eastern hemisphere. 1t Is prob
able that they reached seventy-two de-
erees north latitude. In. the centuries
following, navigator after navigator
went into the north either In the. east
ern or western hemisphere The names
of Barents, Henry Hudson, john
Davis, Frobsher and william Baffin
are written on the worlds map, and
their explorations were. without doubt,
of specific benefit to commerce and the
scientific world. Modern exploration
may be said to have begun With Perry
who i'll 1927 reached 81 degrees 10 min
utes north The most memorable expe-
dltion OF the nineteenth century was
that of Sir John Franklin. who in 1S45
sailed for the north with two ships aud
1873 men. His expedition was lost. In
the next twelve years no less than
twenty-one expeditions frop England
or America were organized to search
for Franklin and make explorations to-
ward tim pole. After. that. polar eX-
plorations lapsed for. a. time. but about
1875 1t WAS renewed with fresh yigor.
During the century England, Germany,
Austria,. Amapica, Scandinavia =. and
even Italy have sent explorers, and the
achievements of Kane, Hayes Hafi
Greeley, Welman De Long, Nansen
and Feary are too we'll known. to need
specific mention. Hundreds of thou
sands of dollars haze been spent. many
lives lost men have suffered untold
hardships, even being driven To canni-
baism. And for what ask the doubt
ers. Merely tAat they naay reach an
Imaginary peirf on the top Of. the
world-a po1ntswhich, If found, would
benefit nobody except the explorer
himself antr the lecture bureaus. No
ona has Yet 'reached IT. The man who
made the nearest approach to the goal
was Captain cagni of the Duke OF
Abrhzzi's expedition, reaching S6 de-
erces SO fmihfres north"
The dohbter' who is compelled.willy'
'nilTy to observe the actions of explor'
ers may take comfort in the thought
