LESSON FOR MARRIRD WOMEN.

"The most important thing of all
that I have learned is how to get
along without my husband, p writes
fshas.t M n Z me- "a a. ;;,.,c, .
as ever we were. We are very fond
of each other indeed, and I think my
own marriage so far has been happier
than most. Only have learned what
almost all women learn first or last
that is, for the sake of my own peace
of mind and his must not have my
interest in life begin and end in him.
''I must not be lonely if he isn't
here. It mustn't be a tragedy to me
if he isn't with me. During our en-
gagement and the first part of Our
marriage Joe absorbed every thought
I had.
"He dimmed my interest in my
friends, he altered my life all over and
gave me new set of interests-which
began and ended with him. I have
had in self-defence to unlearn all these
things, for when I had surrendered
myself entirely I found myself, so to
speak, left high and dry. had
learned my lesson too well-I unlearn-
ed it as best I might and became once
more what people call reasonable
woman.
''I cannot tell exactly when things
began to get different. It was as
imperceptible as the coming of night,
for we are both good tempered people
and had none of the fierce clashes that
some people have. ! don'tthink we
had anything as definite as a first
quarrel even.
"In describing my experience /
think am telling what great many
other people have gone through.
The incidents vary but the result is
the same.
Yesterday you were happy; there
was no cloud in your sky. Today
the most you can say is that you are
contented.
Yesterday you had companion
ship with your husband. Today
when you talk with him, If you talk
at all, it is about the trivial things Of
life-just as other women do to their
husbands toward whom you felt so
patronizing only little while ago.
"The mysterious door which leads
to perfect sympathy is shut. The
way in which women act toward this
altered state of things has as many
shades as there are women."

is merely old and decrepit."

SOME AFTER DINNER TALK.
A Cincinnatian riding through th
mountains of Tennessee stopped on
evening to water his horse before |
little cabin outside of which sat al
old colored woman watching the an
tics of a couple of pickaninnies play

"Good evening aunty," he called

A Washington man, wishing tc
take his family into the country for
the summer, crossed over to the Vir.
ginia side of the Potomac to look at a
small farm with a view to renting it.
Everything was to his liking, and
negotiations were about to be com
pleted when the question of hiring
also the farmers COW came up. It
was an excellent cow, the farmer de-
clared, and even after feeding her
calf she would give six quarts of milk
a day.
"Six quarts day !" exclaimed the
Washington man. "That is more
than my whole family can use. )"
Then, suddenly observing the cali
following its mother about the pas
ture, he added:
"I'll tell you what Til do Til

In the summer of 1863, the
aourishing camp of Unionville was
visited by Mark Twain, or Samuel
Clemens, and partners, who like many
others were lured by the reports of
rich strikes in the silver mines there.
They arrived with the usual equip
ment of the average p%rospector and
took up their abode in Straight can
yon, at the base of a large rock re-
sembling a chimney, and which since
has been known as Mark Twain's
rock. 1t was here that he built . rude
hut with a thatch roof, and under this
humble roof one of his best books,
"Roughing IT, was written. Many
of the adventures which are 80 thrill
ingly portrayed in this work were
actual occurrences OF this time.
The first few days after his arrival
were spent in prospecting. This life
was somewhat new and he searched
diligently. Soon he seemed to be
rewarded, for no more did the rising
sun find him enjoying peaceful slum-
Der. With the first peeping of dawn
he was up and of to the mysterious
mine which his partners in camp
for some time. Then becoming over
enthusiastic, he divulged his secret in
this tanner: "Boys, I've found it;
you can scrape it up by the spoonfuls;
] don't intend being selfish, for as
soon as / have enough to do me for
life IN point out the spot to you
all.' But the boys, not content to
wait, watched him closely next day
and saw him returning to the creek
with bags Of sand. This he carefully
washed and deposited the shining mass
which was left in the pan in q quart
jar which he had nearly filed. This
he carefully hid and returned to camp,
his face aglow with satisfaction. Then
his curious comrades visited the spot
and uncovered the jar containing the
supposed gold. Being miners Of ex-
perience, they were satisfied a. to its
value, and exchanging significant
looks and queer smiles, returned to
camp to find Mark busily engaged in
preparing the evening meal. He vas
happy, needless to say, and went about
his work with the lightest of hearts.
Provisions were getting low, and
considering this a good time to men,
ton the fact, they broke the news to
Mark, who cheerfully offered to replen-
ish the larder. For why should a man
with q jar Of gold hesitate over so
little a matterf Accordingly he arose
early, and with his precious treasure
neatly wrapped, started for the
''store." He gave the order with the

air of n who is well supplied with
this worlds goods, hen unwrapping
the jar Of shimmering metal, held it
toward the astonished grocer, who
took it and proceeded to weigh it out,
but as it fell out on the pan of the
scales a severe look overspread the
grocer's face and he accused the inno-
cent Mark of ~swindling, for it was
only mica. C%restfallen and forlorn,
he. returned home less happy, yet a
wiser man.
In his despair he offered to let the
others do the prospecting, while he
remained in camp as cook, but this
was a failure also, as Iar as cooking
was concerned, for it was now that
"Roughing It" was written, and as
the old adage says, "One thing at 0
time and as "Roughing 1t" is a
very good book, the cooking must
have suffered.
His reputation as q fun-maker was
well known among his companions and
appreciated by the few then, as it is
by the multitude now.
The tall chimney rock still stands,
a monument to his memory, but the
crumbled walls Of the cabin are Gov
cred by a growth Of sagebrush.
