HEAR MRS. LADDEY.

In an address before the Civics Club
yesterday Mrs. Clara v. Laddey, pres
ident of the New Jersey Woman's Suf-
frage Association, declared that Christ
was the real emanoipator of woman.
Mrs. Laddey traced the history of
women through the Egyptian, Greek
and Roman periods, dwelling upon the
characters of Sappho, Cordelia, Pene-
lope, and her rapid rise following the
advent of Christianity. She quoted
Victor Hugo, Goethe and Shakespeare,
referring especially to Portia, with her
keen mentality, and Cordelia, of the
soft and gentle voice." and drew a
sharp contrast TO the conditions Of to-
day.
Mrs. Addison B. Poland, acting presi-
dent of the Young Women's Christian
Association, was present and made a
brief address.
A musical program was furnished by
Miss Mabel Sauer, soprano; Miss Olive
Mills, pianiste, and Miss Maude Cruik-
shank, violinist. Refreshments were
served by the hostess, Mrs. James G.
Corliss, at whose home, 20 East Park
street, the meeting was held.
A special meeting will be held Sat-
urday evening at Mrs. Corlies's, when
business matters will be transacted.
The presidents of the various sister
clubs of the city were present, and the
president, Mrs. Corlies, presided.

than ii used to be.
1t was autumn before l was able to
leave Frankfort, but it was one of the
most beautiful autumns that / have
ever seen in Kentucky. Never before
had the colors of his most glorious
season burned SO deeply; its red was
the reddest and its gold the purest, all
the world was ablaze with glow and
light, and 1, Harry Clarke, felt new
life in every vein of me when 1 took
the train for my home.
I had not told Uncle Paul and Aunt
Jane the exact time of my arrival, be-
cause l wished to come without noise
and to surprise them, Hence there was
nobody at Carlton, when / left the
train, except the station agent and one
or two loungers, and they greeted me
respectfully, but without any undue
Difference. They had known me in my
boyhood and they would not be over

warning. VIII you always be a boy?"
Would you have nc to be an old
man before my time" l replied, as 1
kissed her.
Then We went into the house, and
soon Uncle Paul came. He said nothing
unusual, but gave my hand a powerful
grasp. Before night Seth arrived, hav-
ing taken a later train with the bag
gage, and in the evening, which was
sharp and crisp, we sat around a great,
glowing fire of logs and talked lazily
Of many things. When Uncle Paul and
Aunt Jane rose to bid me goodnight
Aunt Jane said:
Harry, we never abated a particle
of our faith in you during that awful
time, when they were attacking you,
nor did we change when you made your
speech to that meeting"
"I knew you wouldn't. God bless you
both" l said, and there were tears in
my eyes.
7 rose early the next morning to an
other October day of glowing colors and
gorgeous sunlight, and, after breakfast
s~trolled away alone, across the fields.
All the time something had been call

by intense feeling was established be-

ing. The call was for us both. I
looked up and 1 saw her through the
trees. Alicia coming toward me! All,
God! it was worth our years of suffer
ing this one moment!
She was In gray-the mourning that
was no mourning was cast aside-and
the bloom of girlhood was on her
cheeks. She was a girl again, and I
was a boy. We were not old in years,
only in life, and suddenly 1 realized our
youth.
It was the first time in all these years
that I had seen Alicia happy, and she
vas very human and very beautiful,
made to love and to be loved. Pinned
upon her breast was a sprig of some
late wild flower, and its delicate rose
matched the delicate rose of her cheeks.
IT felt hat l must come" she said
shyly from the other side of the pool.
"It was foreordained that you and
should meet here at this time" I said,
1T know it, she said.
Curiously, l felt no shyness. It was
no boy love of mine, but n that had
been tried by every test, and I had
come forth with courage to seek what !

/ went around the pool, and l took
both of her hands ln mine.
Alicia" I said, gravely, God would
not have brought us through so many
evils to meet here today If he had not
intended from the first that we should
belong to each other"
She was silent, but agreeing, and,
putting my arm around her waist, |
kissed her on the lips, while the color
flooded her cheeks.
"You will marry me in the winter,
will you not, Alicia?" I asked.
81 will marry you. Harry, whenever
you come for me- she replied. and she
sighed in deep content. She, like I, had
found peace and rest at last.
I repeat that we were not boy and
girl. TIL gossip of the world had had
its will with us, n would touch us
again. / had been in prison, and none
would forget it; she had been the wife
of a man who had taken the life of
another and his own but, secure in our
love, we did not care.
Thus we stood, with the beautiful
world about us, and on our heads the
glorious sunshine fell in brilliant

THE LATEST LINEN SKIRT.

1t is quite plain and launders beauti-
fully.
1t is made with a high empire waist
line and fastens directly in front or
slightly to the left. Sometimes It has
an inverted box plat in the back, but
1t docs up" better when It is made with
no plaits at ell.
1t is not trimmed, as it Is meant for
the simplest morning ear
1t should also be made with a good
wide hem, as it Is likely to shrink be-
fore the seasons end. It fastens with
fiat buttons at the placket, instead OF
unstable, bendable hooks and eyes. Or
course, most of the separate skirts,
however, will be white, and the shirt
waists worn with them will be of soft
white stuff.
This combination is likely to regain
this summer all of the popularity of its
first seasons as a reigning warm
weather costume.
