Did You Ever Stop to
Think?

So Mr.. Married Man, did you ever give
pouch thought 10 what might happen
nvhen you die? Did you ever spend
anuch Thought upon the fact that You
baere going To die? Did you ever real
uZe that your wife would cease TO be
asour wife and become widow? Did
"Iou comprehend that your children
SHOULD no longer be our children, but
would be known as your orphans? III
p,ou did grasp these facts which many
amen try TO dodge, did you ever carry
oi0ur speculations a little further, thus
irlse, says an exchanges:
T Will my widow wear as good clothes
as my wife? Where will the bread
irone from when The bread winner
hasses away? viii my orphans have
abe advantages Of my children? 1t is
dather grim suite this idea OF
heath. Not dinuer table conversation
int all. It's pleasant thing TO forget.
fdany people do successfully dodge the
subject all their lives. But there Is
mo lodging death itself. 1T never for
ttets. 1t never skips. Rich or poor
bnighty or lowly-no matter. It's a
aine thing to live. 1t makes a man
e,roud to have home, to dress his
iRife, to give his children educational
advantages and To keep his family In
abe front rank. 1t takes money, yes
lA-but it's fine for the children, de-
! bIghtful for the wife, satisfying to the
man.
e}ut-
a When you've run your length, Mr..
\ Married Man, what then? Some day
-FOUR friends will lay lily on your
I chest, heap the praise, the reverence,
the XII ndly tributes that should haye
been yours through life, upon what is
eft Of, lay yod away, and proceed to
orget you. The widow won't forget.
The orphans wont forget. " hen you
20 to the cemetery will the widow go
o the poor house? When you pass
nto the unknown will your orphans
PASS into the asylum? Save! Leave an
ncOme, If you left your wife while
alive the law would put you in Jail.
. Death relieves you OF the law, but
OF OF the responsi blity. Then again
Mr.. Man. your saving may not be for
merely your widow or your orphans.
1t may be for yourself. There are
,nch thi nos nc noralvSiS blindness

DYER SETTLES HIS
W|FE'S CLAIMS

SPOKANE, Jan. 19.-E. ]. Dyer OF
San Francisco, once a prominent bank
er of Spokane, has settled long-stand-
ing litigation with his former wife,
Mrs. Leila A. Dyer, and Howell Peel
A stipulation winding up the suit was
filed in the Superior Court today. The
settlement was effected by N. E. Nuzu-
man, attorney, and Peel. who inter
viewed Dyer at Oakland.
Mrs. Dyer brought suit to have 1884,
200 shares of International Coal and
Coke Company stock declared her prop
erty by the court. She held the shares
as security for note by Dyer for $39,-
715. Peers claim was for $4,000
debt and he claimed a lien on the
shares held by Mrs. Dyer.
Both claims have been satisfied by
the transfer of the stock to Mrs. Dyer,
who is to settle with Peel. The shares
are worth 65 cents and will probably
advance as the result of radical i'm
provements In the fuel market. The
company owns great collieries in

cause he lost such a good position.
There is a clause in our contract with
Price which says that when he leaves
