mistake with her that her father had
made with me. Observing that had
unintentionally inspired her with a
sentiment that might lead to love,
confded to her the secret that love
with us meant death for me.
From that moment a passion that
might otherwise have either never
been born or at least soon have died

sorbed her whole being. Could this
passion he scientifically analysed
think It would appear that the pre-
dominant element in ii would turn out
to be a desire that I should accept
death in preference to giving her up.
There is something paradoxical about
this, but nature is full of paradoxes.
There would surely come a time
when we would put not our necks in
a halter. but my neck in the garrote.
We were one day IN the room where
taught Donna Inez's brother. he hav,

proachful look.

it? l beg of you be careful You IN

She WIS silent for q moment. with

There was something irresistible in
her face as she turned her eyes up to
meet mine. l clasped a hand that
hung loosely by her side and felt a
current running from her arm into
mine. Then it was ali over with me.
l drew her toward me and kissed her.
The next few weeks were the most
delightful to me of any period of my
life. 1 was constantly stealing inter
views with Donna Inez, knowing all
the while that If caught in one of them
1 would pay for the pleasure with my
life. True. there were moments when
the abyss on whose brink 1 stood

terrible reality. But had it not been
for these moments would my enjoy

one that brought out the other.
The bliss of one Of our meetings

The one fact that stands out
clearly in every analysis of the re-
suits of the recent election is that
the people generally have been do
ing a great deal of thinking about
the cost of living. The problem of
keeping outgo within the bounds of
income is just now paramount.
Bread winners and housewives are
deeply interested in the trend of
prices. They are paying more at
tention than usual to the advantages
of careful buying in the most favor

What Are They DYING From.

Heart disease as a fatal ailment
takes on a more grim and terrible as
pect with each year. In a table just
issued by the census department it
ranks second among the leading
/ causes of death, or next to the white
/ plague.
/ The cause is found principally in
/ The consumption of too much nitro
! genous food. the drinking of too much
strong liquor. too intense living, and
+ the failure 10 take exercise enough in
the open air. The prevalence of the
grip bacilli is another cause. accord
/ ing to DR.. W. II. GuilfOy, head of the
bureau Of vital statistics of Greater
/ New York.
/ While deaths from infectious and
/ contagious diseases are declining in
number those from causes not amen
able to sanitary regulation are in
! creasing. Men actually work them
selves into a debiIitated condition OF
! the heart seeking TO guard others from
contagion due to bad sanitation. The
| idea that the race is to the swift is
sapping the strength of the strong and
rendering them weak. So far as the
adoption of sanitary safeguards is
/ con Cerned, men willingly assent 10 the
provision of these, but neglect TO eX'
ercise over themselves the control in
temperance their bodies demand for
their best welfare.
THE most important cause for the
increased mortality from heart dis
ease" in DR.. Guilfoy's opinion. is the
luxurious manner in which most of US
Americans are living today. We are
eating too much heterogeneous food,
meats and game particularly. We are
imbibing too much liquor Cocktails
and wines taken to stimulate the ap-
petite are having their effect. The
numerous deaths from acute indiges
ton, which is heart disease more often
than not, show that most of us are
Overeatiug. Our systems are unable
to take care of the additional waste
matter that is imposed upon them,
and as very few of us take much exer-
else in the open air. heart disease
claims more and more victims every
year.
I'VE are taking great pains 10 pre-
vent the spread of infectious diseases,
but we pay comparatively little atten-
ton to looking after our own health.
If we would only eat less, drink less,
and exercise more the death rate from
heart disease would show a decided
drop"

Paupers in England and Wales.

1t is not that long-haired Missionaries
are in majority in the British parlia-
ment. for they are not, that this great
body has more seriously concerned it
self with legislation affecting the poor,
the INDECENT sick, the outcast and the
unemployed than with any other prob
lem, not excepting reform of the
house of lords. during recent sessions.
Great Britain has realized the fore
cast of Macaulay. Its factory towns
are filled with MANNED and crippled
and idle men and women; with dis
eased children; with incapacitated and
helpless Old men and women-human
wrecks of the merciless wheel of in
dustry that claimed service through
long, toilsome hours in poorly ventt-
lated and insanitary factories. The
provincial towns and the warehouses;
are filled with others helpless who,
robbed of their self-respect by poverty,
are content in pauperism.
For the relief of Ireland the parlia-
ment passed the land purchase act,
unhorsing the feudal parasites that
have stifed industry agriculture and
opportunity for three long centuries,
forcing the emigration of the strong
in body and keen of mind, filing the
cities on the west coast with the poor
and the weak, herding them in novels
that recruited for the graveyard leav-
ing at home practically alone the sup
erannuated, the diseased and the in
sane.
Other parliamentary relief measures
recently enacted and applying general
". are the old age pensions law, the
workmen's compensation law, putting
the whole risk of trade on the en-
ployer, and now there is consideration

of these measures of relief, entailing
an annual outlay of hundreds of mil
lions of dollars from the imperial
treasury Fortunately there are at
hand statistics conveying accurate
idea of the extent Of pauperism in Eng
land and Wales, American Consul
Byington at Bristol, summarizing re-
cent English reports concerning out
door relief, pauperism and old age
pensions, advises that on Jan. l, 1909,
the number of persons relieved was
I 904.02S. and on Jan. l, 1910, 942,SS7, an
| increase for the year of 3S,S09. Con
lsidering the number of paupers in re-
lation to the population, the figures are
as follows;
District. 1909 1910.

| Outside London, in Eng

ION March 81 of this year there
we're 441,4S9 persons in receipt OF old
age pensions in England and Wales.
Within the next four months the pau
per disqualification will be removed,
and in this connection it is interesting
TO note that inquiries made by the To-
cal government board show that on
Jan. l, 1910 there were 1924 pau
peTs each over 20 years of age. OF
these, 57721 were inside warehouses;
and 1929 were in receipt of outdoor
relief. The women exceed the men
by $4,000. The various medical Off
GERS estimate that CT the total number
of indoor paupers over 20 years, 80
POS. or CTS per cent, are unable to
take care of themselves, owing to ply
steal or mental infirmity."
No more terrible Indictment of civil
lization is anywhere else presented
than in England and Wales. Think
what it means that one person in every
IS in these countries is a pauper.
