 For some time I have been taking  lunch with the editor of a pure food journal, but I've quit. Every time I started to order my food, this indomi- table friend would piously assure me that the particular dish was about to have placed before me contained formaldehyde as a pTeservatiye. When I suggested something else, he would invariably impart the information that my second choice had salicyIic acid in it. My third suggestion was vetoed because of too much saccharine adul. iteration. By this time, I usually sub sided and meekly told the waiter to make it two. About the time that | threatened to collapse from starvation and apprehension, my friend moved to another city and confidence is again restored. Where ignorance is bliss, it is folly to go hungry.

WHAT THEY
 LEARNED

From the first days of their ac- quaintance Mrs Hartnett had had to contend with Hartnett's jealousy A person is born jealous just as he Is born with blue eyes or a liking for chocolates. Hartnett had full meas ure of that evil. trait
 Before they were married 1t had been different At first 1t had been a joke. then a certain pleasure to Helena to find how she could sway his moods. Hartnett was handsome and popular and sought after, and 1t was rather complimentary than otherwise to have him glover and sulk if she smiled oL anyone else or talked longer to an other man than himself. There was

Cant Help It." after they had heen married several years Hartnett had not broken himself of the habit Not that he made scenes. but the at mosphere of rebellion. of protest. of indignation with which Le surrounded her on occasion was depressing to say the least. | was not that he resented the presence of any particular person, but that he resented any withdrawal of her attention from himself even for few brief moments.
 He is merely a sulky little boy. Mrs. Hartnett frequently told herself T must remember that and try not to mind"
 But she did mind At last indigna- tion grew uppermost in her feelings. That she should be conscious of giving her every thought and ali her affection to him and yet not succeed in satisfy ing him reused her resentment. Fi- nally she discovered that she did not care very much whether Hartnett was indulging in it of Jealousy or not.
 Then the inevitable happened-she RwOke to the realization that she did not care for Hartnett. His state of mind made absolutely no difference to her. That was why when his firm wanted to send him abroad fo- a cou- pie of years he went alone. They had drifted too far apart even to consider going together. There was a mutual forbearance which prevented any words, but each knew.
 As the day waned which witnessed Hartnetts departure from Chicago Helena Hartnett sighed in relief. That Is, she thought 1t was relief The pros peet of unbrolSen weeks and months ahead of her in which she would be free to live and breathe and think without the hampering fear of precipi- tating trouble vas welcome.
 No man who really cared for his wife could make her miserable in the way Hartnett had made her. She did not pretend to herself to he happy since it was all over aud she might never see him again. hEt at least .ae was free rom that awfu.. eyer-pTeseat cloud Of 1earous espionags She to!4 herself that as time went on she should recover the bright and cheerful frame of mind which had aiwavs beer hers in the old days Tier. -asrst be happiness for her somewners
 New interests flied her lire. pur she was restless. She could consider Hart nett in calm, impersonaI way which assured her that all affection for him mad vanished long ago and that she never wanted to see him again or to go back to the old troubIous days which had meant a constant fear of rousing his jealous temper. The relief rom that was worth all the b,ankn7Ss of the present
 When the two years were up auz Hartaett came back, Gs course, she rusned into his arms without a word and he held her speeches.. his face white and tense.

COAST WAR ON
RATS GOES ON

WASHINGTON. d. c., March 25.-Re-
porting from San Francisco. where he is
in charge of the bubonic plague preven-
ton work. Surgeon Blue. of the Public
Health and Marine Hospital Service,
states that while 1894 rats were taken
during the past week the last one by
meteorological examination to be infected
was found on March Z. This indicates an
encouraging condition.
The number of pOisons placed in the
work of exterminating rats was 6S,2SS.
Twenty-one rats infected with bacillus
pestis were found during the week. This
is one more than during the previous
week. In Oakland 22O,65O poisons were
placed and 473 rats taken, with afteen
showing the bacillus pestis. Port Rich
mond and Emeryville. two other suburbs
Of San Francisco, got 40 rats and placed
2O.s9o posons.
Considerable regarding Is in progress in
Seattle. Hills are being cut down and
the dirt deposited on tide fats, raising
them from twenty to forty feet Houses
are elevated on piles to a similar height
in these low lying parts Of the city. and
all this, combined with the work Of clean
ing up refuse, destroying old shacks and
poisoning and trapping, has scattered. the
rats over the city. Householders in sec
tions hitherto comparatively free from
rodents are now reporting the presence OF
lorge numbers Of rats in their neighbor-
hoods.
The number Of fieas on rats is less than
in November. Counts made in the labora-
tory show that the number of feas per
rat has dropped from hfteen-twentisths
per rat In November to six fieas to four
teen rats in February. Fleas become more
plentiful here in March.
The war upon rats as communicators OF
the plague has extended TO Glasgow,

Although TO mere man Springs only
significance lies in its being the sea-
son Of sunshine, flowers and showers
to woman its greatest glory lies in Its
being the season of Spring opening s.
In truth, from a woman's standpoint
humanity could very well do without
the sunshine, the flowers and the show
ers II only the Spring openings were
retained. This is a truth that has
been the making Of many a prosper
Gus merchant, who has been quick 10
see its application. The season OF
Spring openings. in a word, has ar
rived. and is being duly observed by
all womanlSind and by those who deal
in the things that delight woman's
eye.
Never before, perhaps, has there been
such keen expression Of the prosper
ity OF Wilmington merchants than
during the Kresent season of Spring
openings. All the stores OF Whining
ton have placed on view their richest
merchandise to attract feminine eyes
and a stroll along Market street, Is
a stroll in paradise to the tasteful
