when the children wrangled over the supper table and after they had gone to bed. The result was that next day he drove over to SaundersvilIe. 1t was an hour after he reached the vil- lage before he dared call upon the wid- ow. and then he made the slimsiest sort of excuse. He hemmed and hawed and finally asked if she had cider bar rels to sell. The Widow Taylor sus- pected the real object of his visit and smiled at his wanting cider barrels in May. but she didn't smile to hurt his feelings. She let him down easy. and he returned home feeling quite chirky. It was only when he drove into his yard and found five of the children came over him. Dare he ever pop the question and own up to the seven.
 That night. after the children had fought themselves to bed and to sleep, the deacon got out pen and paper and wrote q letter to the woman whom he had seen a few hours before. He told of his situation very truthfully until he came to the number of his children. He dared not admit to seven. It was deception to say several" but he de- ceived. "A widower with several in- teresting children" he put it. and ear ly next morning he gave it to pass ing farmer to mail. Only two hours had gone by. and the children had had but one free for all scrap. when his heels suddenly lifted from the ground. Suppose his letter led the widow to saying yes. She must then know that he had seven instead of several children. and what would be tion and probably sue him for dam- ages. His own letter would convict him. It was warm May day. but the deacon shivered. Half an hour later he was driving to Saundersvile again. His letter to the widow would reach there at 8 o'clock in the afternoon. and he must get hold of it.
 II was very nervy thing for the deacon to go to the poStoffice at the proper hour and inquire for mail for the Widcw Hastings, but he had work cd up his courage and the postmis- tress happened to be unusually busy, and so the letter was handed out and he started for home. An hour after his doing so the widow herself 2p- peared at the office and asked for mail and was told that letter had been handed out. The postmistress couldn't remember to whom. and q TOW was on.

THE MISSING LETTER
By M. QUAD.

lCopyright. 1909, by Associated Literary
 PressI
 When Deacon John Greens wife died he was left with seven children on his hands, and his friends and neighbors said they wouldn't blame him bit for getting married again within year. This was very kind of his friends and neighbors. but 1t didn't exactly solve the problem. To get married, whether for the first time or the second, and whether man or woro- an, one must find one of the opposita sex who is willing. It is said that in case or widower over forty his fir { thought is to marry girl of twenty and his second to look around for q widow of about his own age. If nea. con Green figured this way he didn't find the girl, and it was two years be- fore he found the widow. He was planting corn in his field one day when sewing machine man came along and sought to banter him into a purchase. He was jovial man. and. although the farmer couldn't see his way clear to buying. the other saw his way clear to do him good turn. and he finally asked the deacon why he had not married again.
 Because don't know of anybody that would have me-" admitted the deacon. with almost blush.
 "Whew. Why. man. you are way behind the times. Say I can give you the name of widow right now She's about forty years old. and she lives in Saundersville. Owns her own house and lot. and guess she has money"
 "She might have me and she might not" answered the deacon.
 But how are you going to know un. til you try? Say, man, believe you are letting good thing slip away"
 The deacon thought it over after the agent had gone. and he thought it over

It so happened that the widow was expecting an important letter, and the inspector for that district was notified and came on to solve the mystery There was no clew to start on.
