him to wait-I didn't know what /
would say to him in the end.
That wasn't a story-I loved John

seemed to me beyond hope that ever

well, certainly I couldn't live along
with my stepmother 1t was her

bit of money. She had said:
You're welcome to stay until you

the lane-they had nests in the

Never was there such another night
Now | love to think of it-for years
the memory was like fire.
Midway the lane we heard some
body riding in the far end of it
riding hard. There was a little rise
before the end. AS we looked we
saw Allen come squirting over it,
bareheaded and stopping in his
saddle. He was upon us all In
Whit. and saying fretfully:
What are you doing here. Lyn-
cite? Come back with me to your
mother"
He said 1t with authority. John
stepped before him, caught his bride
rein and said, before could answer

"Ly1ette will stay here as long as
she likes-with the man she is going

he had the strength of a bull.
He caught John in a bear-hug,
foaming out curses. John only
smiled. With a shake of the Shout
ders he wrenched free, half flung
Allen from him, but caught and
steadied him, and holding him up
right turned to face me.
Choose betwixt us, little girl" he
said. Il thought you had chosen me.

right-to be honest and true-but
John had said he would never ask

me. And poor Allen. How could
fiout him with a happy rival? I
wheeled about, calling to them over
my shoulder:
Il shant marry anybody-until I
please"
No; that's not the end. John went

made him mighty happy. Myself?
oh, it hardly matters about women.

Sneezed at Her.

The courtroom was crowded. A
wife was seeking divorce on the
grounds of extreme cruelty and
abusive treatment. Guns. axes, roll
ing pins and stinging invectives
seemed to have played prominent
part in the plaintiffs married life.
The husband was on the stand un-
dergoing grueling cross-examination.
The examining attorney said: "You
have testified that your wife on one
occasion threw cayenne pepper in
your face. Now, sir. kindly tell US
what you did on that occasion"
The witness hesitated and looked
confused. Every one expected that
he was about to confess to some
shocking act Of cruelty. But their
hopes were shattered when he finally
blurted out:

When You Can't Sleep.

There is an odd theory (that many
people believe and which Is certainly
harmless) that sleeplessness may oft
en- be cured in the following odd way:
Move your bed out into the room SO
that no part Of bed or covers VIII
touch the wall. Then place under
each caster of the bed piece OF rub
her or a rubber overshoe, or set the
caster In a thick glass dish. Then go
to bed, making sure the covers do not
touch the wall Thus the bed and
yourself will be cut of from all elec-
trio contact with the floor or wall.
Such absence of electric current con-
tact. it is claimed, will make you
sleep better. 1t is said to have cured
stubborn cases Of insomnia.

know hundred whose coats are very
