Three Brave Men Who
Went to Africa.
Continued from page ~.

nington He was Eunisman, and when
boy he was full of fun and mschief-not what
we call goody-goody boy-and he found 1T very
hard to stick to his studies. But he had fine stuf
in him. and though at first he found it rather diff
fcult to settle down to hard work. he was
noble Christian and had his heart stirred to go
to Africa. He went once, but had to come back,
as he was terribly sick But he only stayed in
England long enough to get well and strong then
returned to Africa. Finding in one of the mission
stations that they had church building he wrote
home for money to build one-"not tin ark of
cocoanut barn, but proper stone church, church
to the glory of God," he wrote The money came
and the church is there beautiful tribute to our
religion. Bishop Harrington started to march
from the east coast of Africa and to cut new
road through the forest of Uganda. He took two
hundred men with him, but the wicked king
Mwanga, heard he coming, and not wanting
any Christians in his country, decided to
kill the bishop. When he came near the capital
of Uganda band of men rushed upon him when
he was alone and captured him, bound his arms
dragged him through the jungles, and threw him
into hut where he lay for week nearly dead
from this cruel treatment and perishing with
thirst, as he was burned by fever. At the end of
this time he was marched through the woods to
an open spot where he saw fifty of his followers
bound hand and foot. Then he knew that the
king meant to kill him. They made him kneel
down; then the spears were thrust through his
body His last words were: "Tel the king die
for Uganda; my death will have opened the
road" His followers were all killed; only one
man, after lying for hours, almost Dead managed
to crawl away and get to friends who attended to
his wounds. This was in 1885.

According to the agreement, I am to keep it
until-you know what?"
Until am able to keep wfe?"
"Yes-or the minute l fall in love with some
man who wants to marry mel am to send it fly
ing back to you"
"That's understood" assented, kissing the hand
held in mine and incidentally the ring.
"By the way, will expect you to dinner on
Sunday; Papa and Mamma are very anxious to
have YOU They will feel dull without you. Only
think we have not heard any of your college songs
for two years. You will Gomez"
What else could do? l went.
Homeward l took my way in very different
frame of mind from that which had taken me to
Dorothy. Nothing was changed; 1T was just as
impossible now, marriage with Dorothy, as it
was before went to her; and yet 1t didn't seem
quite so hopeless I had planned such heart
breaking wrench apart She, with bit of pleas
antry, had fixed it all exactly right. We were to
be good friends; to see each other often She was
to be free to marry if she found someone to suit,
had years probation on easy terms. What
might not happen in year?

relatives that do You can tell them that you do
all the work alone
That's hardly fair to you but of course If you
wish it so, all right" agreed Mrs. Schrader.
So Mr.. Schrader swept and busted and wiped
dishes, and sometimes even washed them, and
when guests were expected for meal he helped to
get things ready before they came and helped to
clear up after they were gone but while they were
there his wife did what was to be done. If the
work was mentioned Mrs. Schrader would say,
Eyes, | do it all"
But how you, and teach School!' would IN
variably be the query.
"Oh l get along very easily" and Mr.. Schrader
would give her a nod of approval or squeeze her
hand if he were near enough to do 1t unseen, and
sometimes he would remark, Eyes, have fine,
smart wife, have | not?"
Toward spring Mrs Schrader began to lose flesh
and look tired, as she always did at that time OF
the year. Mr. Schrader kept doing more and more
of the housework until it was very small share
indeed that fell to her lot. One evening when she
had had particularly hard day. and had come
home nearly exhausted, Mr.. Schrader insisted on
her lying on the couch while he got the evening
meal. He had barely finished Strengthening up
after, when two fellow teachers called.
"You look SICK" one of the ladies remarked to
Mrs. Schrader, who had gotten up to greet them.
Are you still trying to do your own work"
"Yes-s" replied Mrs. Schrader.
Really" continued the speaker, you are doing
too much. It's no wornder you look so worn and
tired. I should think Mr.. Schrader would get
time to help you little Doesn't he?"
MOO" faltered Mrs. Schrader looking at her.
husband This time he did not give her nod of
approval, and his face wore thoughtful express
sion. Mrs. Schraders eyes twinkled, but she kept
her counsel.
"How some girls do change after marriage" re-
marked the talkatve guest when she and her COM
panion had left the fiat. when Millie was at
home, she hardly ever lifted her hand to work
Her brothers were always doing for her. NOW she
teaches and runs her house. and dare say waits
upon her husband, hand and foot Excuse me from
ever marrying fOreigner!
Los Angeles herald., 1908-03-22

Good Lord!" burst out Schrader, "I've done hall
of the work ever since Millie and l were MARRIED
and lately I've been doing nearly all OF it! cant
a man do what he peases in his own home With
out everybody having to know about it?'
Forgive me, Schrader," smiled John, compre
hending the situation knowing Millie, should
have been wiser"
At the study table that evening Mr.. Schrader
spoke out. "You Americans" he began, don't
think any the less of man If he helps his Wlte
about the house, do your"
mo, indeed, we think good deal more OF him,
answered Mrs. Schrader her eyes dancing merrly

friends that I do help you-a litte-sometimes-
with the housework," he stammered

out walking. But Mrs. Schrader had been teaching
in high school for some years-she admitted to
ten-and her courage great.
The wedding trip over and the couple had
eaten the first meal in their new home.
Here, dearie" said Mrs Schrader, handing Mr..
Sch raider a towel, you wipe the dishes while
wash them
Mr. Schrader took the towel thrust upon him,
in surprised and dubious fashion, and stood hold
ing it helplessly. Really, my love-" he COM
menced, hestatingly.
"Its easy enough" interrupted his wife, cheer

Just be sure and wipe them dry
Mr. Schrader went awkwardly and doubtfully to

fast. You know We'll have to have 1t early, for
we'd never hear the last of it if we late to-
morrow-our first day." and she chatted cheerily
on about their school work
Mr. Schrader did all that was asked of him,
meantime thinking hard and when, at last, their
rockers were drawn up to the study table, he had
decided just what his future position would be
the matter of helping about the house
81 suppose, my DEAR" he observed, shat you will
-er-like me to help you more or less with the
work every day as long you continue teaching?"
"Why, of course, honey" replied Mrs. Schrader.
WED never save enough money to buy that vine
covered cottage if we kept servant, and besides,
I don't believe I'd like to have one around"
'Nor l." quickly agreed Mr. Schrader, exchang
ing comprehensive glances with his wife,
"Our fiat isn't very big" she continued, "and
don't think that we'll find the work so very hard"
at isn't the work, dear, it's-oh, well, I will help
you but don't want you to tell our friends or
Los Angeles herald., 1908-03-22

The next day Mr.. Schrader met his wifes
brother, John.
"Milie isn't looking very well' John observed,
during their conversation. Don't you think that
she's trying to do too much with both her school
and housework? When she was home she made
us boys hustle around but now she seems to want
to do everything herself 1t seems to me that you
ought to insist her getting some outside help II
she won't let you help her"

Mrs. Schrader went into it with her eyes wide
open. Her brothers had taken particular pains to
fully inform her to what she might expect she
persisted in taking foreigner but two years over,
for a husband. They told her that she would have

while the socialist vote increased more
than 300 per cent, and the increase in
votes was almost as great as the increase
in republican votes.
The republican leaders have been in
the habit of sneering at the socialists,
while blindly indifferent to tho causes
that have contributed to the growth of
socialism. The democrats recognize
that socialists are honestly seeking q
remedy for the known abuses admitted
by Secretary Taft. Democrats dissent
from the remedy proposed by the So
cialists, believeing that socialists are
mistaken and that the democratic
remedy is better, but it is time for
thoughtful people to recognize that in
can only be retained and
defended by remedial legislation that
will remove the abuses which have been
allowed to fasten themselves upon the
country. The democratic party, be-
lieving in individualism, addresses
itself earnestly to these abuses, and
instead of ridiculing and maligning
the socialists invites them, as it does
the republicans, to examine the demo-
cratic platform and the remedies
proposed therein. 1t submits it's plans
