your search. Good afternoon
DAVIS looked after her in surprise.
She had not spoken a word about the
need for haste if the marriage was to
be prevented: he had been expecting it all
through the interview, and she had gone
without once introducing the subject.
Perhaps she had altered her mind; any
way, that part of the business had moth
! ing to do with him. Once more he open
ed his desk.
Here is the money, Sir Godfrey, and
here is the bill ready stamped to sign.
You will send me an occasional tele-
gram, if you come across any news; and
if you find another fifty necessary you
can have it OF the same terms. wish
you successful search, sir, and speedy
return"
II shall wire if necessary, not unless;
and you may depend upon my earliest
possible return"
He put his name to the bill, took up
the small roll of notes, babe the lawyer
good day and left the room without see
ing his extended hand.
"As proud as Lucifer" muttered
DAVIS, not a bit abashed. 'Never mind,
the palmer and simpler the better"
Mr.. Mallett reached the noisy, busting
street and looked about him for a cab;
time was getting precious, if he meant
to start tonight; and he would like to
do so, if possible-for an intolerable rest
lessness had come TO him, and he felt
that he could not spend moment in
peace until he knew everything.
To his surprise, as he looked up and
down the long street, Babette glided
from the shadow of a doorway and beck
oned to him.
II want to say a dozen words to you
that | do not care that llttl eman to
hear" she said, as he reached her sidt.
II have only two minutes TO spare, and
was afraid you would not leave in
time. If you find out that your niece Is
dead, and that this woman Is an i'm
postor soon enough let me have a tele-
gram to that effect by Wednesday morn
ing. / will not ask for my half OF that
FIVE thousand pounds"
Here was another complication.
"Why by Wednesday," asked Mr.
Mallett. in surprise.
Because she is going to marry Mr..
Dornton at Bishopgate church at II
o'clock on Wednesday next-all in secret
you know-and / would not only give UP
the money, but the best years Of my life
to prevent it"'
Married to Dornton on Wednesday,
the very day after her birthday-at q

does it all meanY asked Mr.. Mallett, In

man and will marry him in spite of ev-
cry one, if you do not prevent it.

can"
| He stood for a moment looking after
hcr retreating figure, tried to make out
what the news meant, then gave it up in
despair and bestowed his thoughts ex

sence.

some people to write a cheerful letter.
One feels instinctively that the read
ing Of a certain letter will give one
Dad fit of the blues and it does.
Why will not people keep their gloomy
thoughts off paper? The unfortunate
recipients cannot possibly sympathize
to the proper extent-not knowing ev-
cry particular-and it only has the eff
feet Of making them thoroughly miser-
able, in nine cases out of ten, over an
imaginary woe which belongs to some
body else.
Consider it duty to write cheerful
letters, and, if you haven't anything
cheerful to say, hunt till you find some
thing. You won't have a very long
search. If the sun doesn't shine to-
day, it will tomorrow, or the day
after.

wastefuI Ways of Saving.

Do not try to save money by
Doing without your luncheon, even
if only for once This will injure your
health.
Walking home after a days shop
ping. You can get more money, but
you cannot get a new constitution
after yours has been undermined.
Sewing in the twilight. Artificial
light is cheaper than Oculists' bills.
Wearing thin clothing. Flannel is
cheaper than druggists prices.
Using cheap soap. 1t will cost you
something in cold creams and suffer
ing to remedy the harm it does.
Going about in thin shoes. Leather
is cheaper than quinine and porous
plasters, also than a case of pneu-
mOnia.
Il. Trying to do the work Of the uphol-
sterer and the carpet layers. You may
never feel like doing any work again.
Overworking. Nobody will thank
you. You will be so cross that the
very people for whom you are saving
the money will hate you, and your
husband will wish he had married a
spendthrift.

Man, woman ard Money.

man, woman ara money.
Every now and then one reads in the
papers an account of some foolishly
confding girl or woman who, at Ills
solicitc ton, has entrusted her little
hoard Of savings to her lover or fiance,
and finds trust and trustee missing.
Hear That Ella Wheeler Wilcox has
to say on this subject:
There is one type Of man / have
never yet known to be strong, reliable
and trustworthy-a man / would like
to see any friend take for life COM
panion--and that is the young man
who asks a loan OF money from wo-
man he loves, or who loves him. Be
lieve me, there Is some lack OF real
moral fiber in such a man.
"a husband and wife many years
married, and united by common in
terests, may become so one in thought
and purpose that a common purse
would be as natural to them as a
common dinner-table.
But before marriage, or immediate
ly after, the man who begins to ask
woman for the use Of her purse
should be distrusted by her. He could
not breach such subject unless he
lacked certain refinement and
strength which makes a manly man
woman's protector by nature. Even
where no sentiment exists between
man and woman, the really strong
men of the world never become Dor
rowers from women.
where q man is q woman's lover
and asks her to advance money to him
for any reas0" she may as well real
lie at once the reed on which she will
lean IL she accepts him for life CON-
panion. vital quality Is left out Of
his character.
"He Is but one step removed from
the man who seeks q woman because
she has money, and he, is the most
despicable of the human race"
This is true as Gospel" 1t has
been proven so many, many times, to
| the cost of foolish women who allow
themselves to be led away by senti-
ment or over-persuaded by a glib
tongue. The world respects no man
who takes money from woman CT
lives on her earnings. When the cor
rect financial situation Is reversed,
romance flies. No woman can be
| blamed for ceasing to respect the man
who allows her to support him, max
| ing no effort to assume his rightful
place as bread-wlnner. And when she
ceases 20 respect, love and happiness
| soon take leave also.
A man who has not sufficient prop
erty to furnish a place for his wife
to live. or position giving him q

Upon himself the responsibility Of

where he happens TO hang up his hat.
and whose estate consists Of change
of neckties, can very often coax girl
into marrying him and wheedle her
out of any little savings she may have
accumulated. The chap who wants
to borrow before marriage is very apt

Now that so much lace and friIls and
picture hats are in vogue, long, droop-
ing eyelashes are necessity. So prev
alent is the demand for long eye
Iashes that especial treatment is now
necessary for their development.
Warm. milk, applied with soft
camel's-hair brush is very beneficial,
also clipping the extreme tips of the
Iashes with tiny sharp scissors. Avoid
rubbing or touching the ids with the
fingers. Many women have the habit
of rubbing their eyes. which il a
harmful practice. as it makes the
growth of hair very sparse.

How Ex-Governor Peck and His Friend

How Ex-Governor Peck and His Friend
Got Something to Eat.
Whenever George r. Peck gets back
to Kansas the papers can count upon
him for a good reminiscent story of
some kind. He was at Topeka the
other day. and as usual bunch of old
friends gathered around him in the
Copeland lobby to talk over old times.
Colonel w. II. Rossington, the we'll
known Topeka lawyer, was in the
crowd. He and Peck have been warm
friends for a third of century. Peck
says that "Rossy" while a reporter on
a Kansas paper made" him.

Temper and Marriage.

Every one agrees that marriage has
a strong influence upon the temper,
says a writer, but is it good or bad T?
Taking a woman's point of view for a
moment, we can easily see how her
temper may be improved by marriage.
When she marries she has, we may
assume. attained the ambition of her
life. She has got q husband and a
sorEc Of her own; she looks forward
to happy life-in fact, the future is
as bright as future well could look.
This is l.ound to tell Perhaps before
marriage she was inclined to peevish-
ness: she might even have had grave
doubts about ever being a wife; she
might have a disconnected family cir
Gle to deal with, end so on. These
things are are all brushed away when
she rarries She enters a condition
which enables her to see a roseate
hue OH the most ordinary things of
life If this does not improve her
temper nothing can.
