this time. But the minute the edge of the widows skirt showed on the platform Ads courage fled, and so did he. Up the main street he went. Gee! but you ought to have seen that fellow run. There never was anything to beat it in Oklahoma. Out the north road he took like a jack rabbit ln a prairie fire. That happened to be my road. I was waitin' for him be- hind a sycamore with a lasso in my good right hand.
 Somehow or another, I didn't figure right on his speed. He must a-been goin' a mile a minute, for when that moose settled down over his shoulders he stopped with jerk that nearly took me Off my pony and doubled him up into bow-knot at the side of the road 1 thought he was dead, but when the crowd came up with the widow there was doc tor In the bunch, and he said there was nothin the matter with him except an arm and a couple O ribs broken, an a crack in his head. So we carried him out tc his sod house, put the widow to nurs- in him, and of course the rest was easy.
 q don't live in that part of Oklahoma now, but every Christmas Ad sends me couple O turkeys, just to show his grati- tude, and they've gllded that lasso and hung 1t on the wall.
 ''Uh huh! Didn't tell you!' exclaimed the man with the Roman nose. Don't that prove the power and the beauty and the beneficence of advertising? Don't it now? Don't it?"

matrimonial papers. It had taken all she had to pay her fare. and here she was, in 0 strange country, flat broke, and the man she'd expected to take her in his arms had fled. Boohoo! It was tough. And she was a mighty good lookin widow, too; lady any man could be proud of. We made up our minds right there that this long tance playin with the affections of un- protected females in various parts of these United States by this long-legged, chicken hearted Don Joo-an had to be stopped: also, we felt 1t our duty to restrain Ado nlram'S impetuous bashfulness and get him married in spite of himself. So we ex- plained the situation to the widow, told her what was the matter with Ad, what a good fellow he really was and what fine farm he had, and we conspired together.
 Well, we fixed it up with the editor of that matrimonial paper and sent the wid- CIV over to Guthrie to wait until she was wanted. In two or three days Ad sneak ed back home, and pretty soon he com- menced gettin' letters from the widow, sent of course, by way of the matrimonial editor, so he would mt catch on to where she was. She reproached him gently for his fickleness, and he was mighty sorry; wrote her if she'd come again he stay hitched If it killed him. When he come to town to meet her the second time we made all the arrangements for a coop, as the French say. We stationed a man on every road leadin' out of Kingfisher, and had his horse locked up. The other times Ad had been in too big hurry to get his horse, but we wasn't taking any chances.
 "Adoniram went up to the depot that mornin as bold as lion. When the whistle blew he stuck to his post though he was looking mighty sick, and the boys begun to believe he was goin to hold on

From the Youths Companion.
 Mrs. Millsap's new girl, who never had gone out to service before, and had had scarcely any experience as a cook, ap- peared to be willing and industrious and was quick to learn. In view of her mex perience, she had readily agreed to work for s350 a week. Mrs. Millsap, who was an expert cook, had taken much pains with her education in that time, and at the end of five or six weeks Jemima was equal to any demands upon her in the line of kitchen work The mistress was great ly surprised, therefore, when the maid one morning gave her a weeks notice.
 What does this mean, Jemima?' she asked "Haven't treated you fairly?'
 "Yes, ma'am," answered the girl, but I've learned how to cook now, and I've found a place where I can get $5 a week right at the start"
 .'You didn't ask me to raise your wages. Do you think you are acting fairly with me?'
 ''Oh, I'm going to do the square thing with you, Mrs. Millsap," said Jemirna. "I've got a sister about a year younger than I am and she's perfectly willing to come here and work for $3.5O week-till she learns cooking, anyhow"
