There they stood confront ing each other, Romeo. with hls fierce eyes. impatient of denial. the Apoihecary, pale and weak from eh- forced fasting. surprised that GUS toner should come his way, but fear ing all things and studying the face of the stranger with furtive @lahees. There were the extremes of fortune in toIch on the common ground of ,J,sperate unhappiness. Romeo comes at once to Lhe point:
 "f see that thou art poor, Hold. thcrf is forty ducats: let me have dram of poison"
 The Apothecary, for his art, ex- presses no surprise. His own SUI fe1ing has made him cynlcaily in- different. not sympathetic. II h' nroffered sum is a great t2mptatlon' and the only question with him is whether he should incur the risk i1 volyed in making the sale. Romeo
 is equally interruptions; but he eS- presses surprise that man Ill the depth of misery should hesitate al any venture that promised reiiei' or that he should care at all for the W orld's opinion of it's laws. Then the sorely tried wretch, reminded of the extremity of his need, yields, strikes his flag, but is ashamed to do SD without making an excuse even to Romeo who is about to die
 How often is that excuse made " this world, which is all one great battlefield, through all the days of the year between truth and error. right and wrong! My poverty, but not my will consents" The writer the artist, sacrificing high ideals at the demand of vulgar taste, oHers that plea to himself. The pubic leader. abandoning his personal con yictions to win applause and pre- lferment. argues that there IS no other way. And both are selling noison-and both are poisoning them- ee1ves But how subtle is the sophls- try of inclination and self-interest! -he man who would rather be flgn1 than President. rather be honest than rich rather be true than win the ropular verdict anywhere.

The larger of the two, aa'n ed 'Sus Grande in tribute to his ayoIdupois. was low, .heavy-set and nossessed an abdomen given oXev to corpulency. The other was also low, but thin. wiry and lacked parts. But here dissimilarity ended. Both were, descendants of mixed ancestry. part Spanish but mostly Aztec. Both were dark. with Indian blood showing con, spicuously in the protruding cheek bones, the big, black eyes and the coarse. raven hair. Both were agile. quick alert. Both had large black eyes that saw everything. Both had big ears that heard everything. Both had little feet that went everywhere. Both had little hands that did everything And both were dressed in the :conyen- tional garb of the country-coarse cotton coats, dark pants that fit tightly about their limbs and tapered to their ankles, wide-brimmed sombre- ! ros that tapered to a high point on their crowns. sandals on their feet, and corn shuck cigarettes in their mouths.

ORDER
TO Be ORGANIZED

There Is movement on foot to or
ganize a division of the Sons and
Daughters of Temperance IN the near
future, and it is hoped that it will be
carried through as it is one of the
grandest orders in the temperance
work.
York by sixteen observation-disclosures on
Sept. 20, 1912. Since that time the
work has spread over the entire civil
lied world there being active divisions
in South Africa, Australia, Bahama
Islands, Cuba Nova Scotia, New Zea-
land, Great Britain, Canada, etc
Some Of our n latest statesmen have
been leading members of the order,
There are many good features
in connection with the order, and
among them is the work OF teaching
the rising generation to understand
the evil effects alcohol on the system
and to instill into the minds of young
and old the necessity Of concerted
action in temperance work. This will
in no way conflict with the Anti-Sa-
loon League, but will be d help to that
organization.
The Sons and Daughters of Temper
ance is a secret order, and the cere-
monies are grand and imposing. There
is disability and death benefit fund
in connection with it,
SO far there is not IA division in the
State, so let us have the honor by
organizing the first one in Fort Pierce,
A number have signed application
blanks, and as soon as names sufficient
can be obtained to call for charter
the work will be got under way.
Mrs. John Miller and two daughters,
of Eden, were in town last Saturday.

that we could not have any unless we
