WAS ON THE LEVEL
WlFEY'S LINE OF TALK NOT
MEANT FOR SARCASM.
Cause Of the Late Dinner Consider
ably Puzzled Mr.. Hopkins Until
His Better Half Settled II
with an Explanation.

Hopkins had been detained at his
office an hour later than usual, and
when he boarded a car for his home
he was all nervous. His nervousness
increased as he got nearer home. It
was no wonder, either. for Hopkins
had promised his wife to be homo
early that evening.
He tried to read his paper but in
stead he found himself repeating from
memory the line of talk that his wife
would hand him about keeping dinner
waiting upon poking around down
town after he left the office, and how
thoughtless he was of her wishes and
lot more like that.
He had his explanation all framed
up ready for use when he let himself
into the fiat with his key.
Mrs. Hopkins came in smiling when
she heard his shut the door.
Dinner isn't quite ready" she re-
marked apologetically. as she helped
him of with his overcoat.
isn't hey" says Hopkins, suspi.
ciously, wondering what sort OF a
game she had fixed up on him. He
wished whatever 1t was she'd get It all
over with.

she asked, because am getting up
Just plain little meal this evening

Huh, uh," says Hopkins. amy old
thing'll do me, Just 80 it's some sort
of food product" He looked at her in
subdued manner that said. "Yes,
I'll be II for whatever the game is,
but let's get started" II was all too
deep for Hopkins. He never was
much Of a hand at working out mys-
teries ami refuses and the like, and
whatever the plot was It was getting
on his nerves.
That's Just like you" went on Mrs.
Hopkins, you never complain, Here,

here II you want to look over your
paper. I'll hurry up dinner Just as
fast as ! can. I'm almost ashamed of
what a little I've got. oh. waitl I'll

to wash your hands"
And so her talk ran "Going to be a
nice evening of 1t, isn't It," thought
Hopkins to himself. "Yes, It isn't

At the dinner table the missus laid
down her hand. The game had really
been on the level all the time. "I'n not
let this happen again." she began In
that same apologetic tone. "Yoi see

Obituary.

Mrs. Mary ]. Gustin, daughter of
Thomas and Mary Roberdt, was born
near Petersburg April u, 1852 and
departed this life at her home in
Belfast May 9, 1908, aged So years.
On January 8, 1875 she was married
to Thomas Gustin. To this union
we're born four children, Clyde, Ho.
mer, Mary and Bertha, the three
latter having proceeded her to that
deathless land,
In early youth she united with the
M. e church and she lived devoted
Christian life to the end. In the early
part of her sickness, which was of but
few weeks duration, she said her
work was almost finished, she would
soon be with departed loved ones.
Loving hands did everything to pro-
long her life but the Lords will be
done and peacefully she fell asleep to
awaken on the other shore.
The funeral services we're conducted
on May II by her pastor, Rev. Gibson,
after which the remains we're laid to
rest in the cemetery near by, followed
by large concourse of sorrowing
friends and relatives.
Death has robbed us of our mother
Whom we loved and cherished dear,
1t was mother, yes, dear mother
We can't help but drop tear.
Oh, we miss her coming footsteps
Oh, we miss her everywhere,
Home is not what It used to be
Since she is not here.
Dear mother is gone but not forgotten
Never shall thy memories fade,
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger
Round the grave where she is laid.
