A Woman,s Sacrifice.

Three years ago startling tale came
to light concerning prominent bust
ness man in Austria. He found him
self on the brink of ruin, and his wife
came to his rescue at the cost of her
own life. Leaving an overheated room
one night, she walked up and down a
stone tagged passage, barefoot and
with nothing on but nightdress, till
she caught chill which she aggravat-
ed by series of reckless acts. In
hammation of the lungs set in, and she
died shortly afterward. Her husband
obtained the large sum of money FOR
which her life was insured, and with
this he was able to pull through the
crisis successfully. He married for a
second time within three months of his
first wife's death. This husband did
not get off scot free, however. A serv-
ant in his employ had overheard the
conversation In which the heroic
young wife had told her husband her
intention to die for his sake. The serv-
ant Informed the police. Then the in
surance companies contended 1t was
case OF suicide and sued successfully
for the return of the money. The hus-
band was prosecuted for being an ac-
cessory to his wife's death and re-
ceived the punishment he well merlted.

warden regards as the apple of his

ways. and went to sleep.
After time I suddenly walked to
find the room dimly pervaded by that

pervasiveness warned me. and I slip
