So here hath been dawning
Another blue day;
Think wilt thou let It
Slip useless away.
Out of Eternity
This new Day is born;
Into Eternity
At night will return.
Behold it afaretime
No eye never did;
So soon it forever
From all eyes is hid.

Editor The Chronicle:
! believe you will grant me little
space in The Chronicle to say few
words which may be Of benefit in the
way OF putting people tn thinking, and
that may result in abating v.Ty disa-
greeabe practice,
In the early days of Clinton we wom-
en- use To LOOK forward to the time in
the, as we hoped, not distant future
when we should have sidewalks aud
could get about over the town and
also escape the mud when the weather
was wet. The good old board side
walks came and served their purpose.
We, as well as the men of the city =,
were glad Of them, although at times
the hoards would warp and spring up
holes appear which would spoil
the symmetry and impair the usefrl-
noss Of the whole. Then came, with
city ways a"d waterworks the beauti.
fll cement sidewalks, which spoke
much for the Advancement of the
little hamlet that we had seen grow

metropolitan ways sat as tho gh nat

our husbands, brothers and sons, OF
course sweethesrts are included in
the general numbering.
or course we know that in the west
a great many men chew tobacco. Even
Sam Jones did that, and when n good
sister asked him why he did il he told
her that he "Chewed tobacco SO he
could spit red" While may not APP

habits | shall offer no criticism. 1t is
conceded that one of the reasons, il
not the main one for men chewing to-
oacco is to give them chance To spit

liberty 10 do so as not 10 infringe upon
the right guaranteed all people TO
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happi-

The Watonga Republican takes note
of the change in the presidency of the
schools of the state and reads the de-

The Southwestern Normal at Weather

OF the Southwestern. There was no
reason why the changes should have
been made at this time. Both schools
are in splendid condition and are en-

these schools changed in the middle of
the year? Politics Only that anu

Yet, even in this mood of optimism,
John Shil could not hide from himself
the serious nature Of the problem that
would comfort him in the near future.
He had assumed Lauras recovery to
health. But after that? marriage to
Leonore? For the moment he could
not contemplate such an event with
equanimity. Leonore had concealed
important news from him, news that
must inevitably affect their relations
towards each other. He could not
doubt that she had done this with a
definite purpose in her mind. She
knew well enough why he had given
up all hope of taking Laura from her
husband. She was well aware that
only the existence of the child re-
strained him from sin. She herself
had harped on this one point in Wild
ley street. THE child, the child"
That had been her cry; that had been
the weapon with which she had con
quered him.
And now the child was dead, and
there was nothing save sense OF
honour to restrain him from takir~

the step which would lead him to
happiness.
only my sense of honour" he said
to himself, as he watched the blue
smoke from his pipe curl up to the
ceiling; yet that is enough for an
honorable man"
But as he considered the matter
from every point Of view, he began to
wonder il, after all, honour would
prove a strong enough chain to bind
him to Leonore. 1t was not purely
question of self. There was Laura Ia
be considered. She had left her hus
band and come to him for protection
No words of love had passed between
them, but he knew well enough why
she had come to him. She had
evidently decided to break loose from
all the ties which bound her to Sir
William Tankerlane, and to seek the
happiness that had so long been de.
MED to her She had not spoken OF
love, but he had seen the passion in
her eyes, and the mere fact of her
presence at Black Hall was more elo-
quent than a thousand protestations OF
affection.

Laura would be beyond the reach of
all medical aid before he returned.
The man had suffered much during
the last two years, but never had he
suffered so terribly as this.
He launched the punt, set the sail,
and tore down the creek with wind
and tide in his favour. In less than
ten minutes he had hailed the William

he ran his little craft alongside, and
jumped aboard with the painter in his

They had come to sharp turn III
the bank, A narrow creek flowed in
land for nearly half a mile, and the
bank, following the'li of the water,
ran obediently along the. whole length
of it and returned on the other SIDE.
The uacreek was not more than hfty
wards wide at the mouth, but it was
necessary to make detour OF half
mile to skirt it. Halfway down the
bank. on the side. which faced the
water. was the battered frame Of an
old barge-a mere SHELTON of a thing
that had perhaps once been che pride
of its owner and crew. Jonn Shll
moved towards it down the steep slope
and held out his hand to Laura.
She took the proffered assistance,
and the, firm grasp of the mans
fingers sent the colour to her cheeks.
He was only Offering an ordinary
courtesy, but her heart, beating last at
his mere touch, imagined the grip OF
possession, the strong hold of. the hand
that would take her, and protect her
against the violence Of the world.
They sat down on the edge of "a
plank which still stretched between
two gaunt ribs. 1t was not COM
Portable seat, but twas better than
the damp grass. The old hulk was at
the foot Of the bank, and half of it
was buried in the mud Of the creek.
Beneath their feet lay a mass OF
corlzs, sticks, seaweed, crab shells, and
all the .jetsam which the tide brings
up with it from the sea-.
For little while neither of them
spoke. There was much TO be. said,
many. questions to be asked and
answered. Yet, neither liked to break
the silence. Their hands were side by
side on the edge of the plank, but
their fingers did not touch. Once
again Laura's mind harked back to
those happy days on the Stonewold
Hills.
Then the memory of them stung her
to madness, and she plunged headlong
into the contest.

and caught hold of her arm. What

been married to him for years. She
has recently divorced him in Amer

"In America? All, yes; she has just

Indifference had stirred up all hel

Fire!

Vernon Murry's residence had
narrow escape from a destructive
fire last night, but was saved
from danger by Murry and some
neighbors.
His child was up stairs with an
oil lamp, and; accidently over
turned it. The oil and flame
spread rapidly over the floor.
The bureau and bed clothing were
badly burned. Fire alarm was
turned in but the fire department
was not needed as the surround
ing neighbors were quickly on
the scene and had the fire under
control. Fridays Daily.
