he was to marry another, and
having the trust and confidence
in his word which he had de-
manded, she believed him. Her
heart was broken and she acted
harshly, and without thinking.
There is a lesson in the tragedy,
and the lesson is for girls to
learn. A man who plays jokes
like this is beyond redemption.
The girls must learn, and know
the manner of men to whom they
give their hearts. Finding there
has been a mistake, they must
not think, as this girl thought,
that there is nothing else left in
life.
They must know that there is
everything left, that there is
more to live for than before, for
now there is the knowledge of a
fortunate escape.
The knowledge that a lover is
not worth loving is a painful
one, but out of it grows wisdom,
a clearer view of life, and a hap
piness that has a more stable
foundation.

Short Man.

Short men might look as if
they had a harder time to succeed
than the tall man, but such is
not the case. Most of the best
known men of the world have
been and are small men. Napo-
leon, Nelson, and Lord Roberts
are a few of them.
The small man has the same
sized heart, lungs and brain as
the big man; or least to speak
more accurately, the vital organs,
although they are actually larger
in the larger body, do not in
crease in size in anything like
proportion.
For instance, a fve-foot-high
man has a heart weighing about
10 1-2 ounces; a six-foot mans
heart weighs barely IL ounces,
whereas, in proportion it should
weigh something over IL 1-2
ounces. Proportionately the
taller man has less heart power.
Yet his heart has to do harder
work. 1t has to raise the blood
higher.

People win Talk.

You may get through the world, but
twill be very slow.
If you listen to all that is said as you
go;
You'll be worried and fretted, and kept
in stew,
For meddlesome tongues will have
something tc do,
For people will talk.
If quiet and modest, you'll have it
presumed
That your humble position is only as
sumed;
You're awolf in sleeps clothing, or
else you're fool,
But don't get excited keep perfectly
cool,
For people will talk.
If generous and noble they'll vent out
their spleen,
You'll hear some loud hints that you're
selfish and mean,
If upright and honest, and fair as the
day,
They'll call you rogue in a sly, sneak
ing way,
For people will talk.
And. then, if you show the least bold
ness of heart,
Or slight inclination to take your own
part,
They will call you an upstart, conceited
and vain;
But keep straight ahead; don't stop to
explain.
For people will talk.
If threadbare your dress, or oldfashion-
ed your hat,
Someone will surely take notice of
that,
And hint rather strong that you can't
paylyour way;
But don't get excited, whatever they
say,
For people will talk.
If you dress i'm the fashion, don't think
to escape,
For they criticise then a different
shape;
You're ahead of your means, or your
tailor's unpaid;
But mind your own business, there
naught to be made,
For people will talk
Now the best way to do is to do as you
please,
For your mind, if you have one, will
then be at ease.
OF course you will meet with all sorts
of abuse.
But don't think to stop them; it amt
any use,
For people will talk.

A Sweetheart's Wife.

On the morning of April l, Ida
Kaiser, living in St. Louis, and
19 years old, ran gaily down the
steps to meet the postman.
He handed her an envelope ad-
dressed in the writing that was
dearest to her. 1t was from the
man she was to marry next
month.
She ran back to her room, or,
rather, she flew, for Love gives
wings to those who carry what
she carried in her hand, and who
want to be alone while they read.
Reaching her room, she broke
the seal, and with heart beating
high with expectation, read the
opening sentence:
Il have married another"
Then she went down the steps,
but not as she had come up.
Crossing the street to a drug
store, she bought a quantity of
mercury tablets, returned to her
room, swallowed them, and was
soon beyond human aid.
1T was an April fool JOKE" a
young man sobbed to her mother
a few hours later. Il did it as a
joke. l never thought of marry
ing any one but Ida. l just
wanted to tease her,
All his lamentations and re-
proaches can't bring her back.
He is like the man who rocks the
boat, and who is left in the boat
alone, his only memory that of
an agonized face.
The girl who was the victim of
this little April fool Joke" was
foolish, it is true. Only a fool
ish girl will decide that any one
mans love is all there is to life.
Had she been older wiser, and
known men at their right values,
her first thought would have been
gratitude that she found out his
faithlessness before it was too
late.
Discovering later that he
wasn't married, but was tortur-
ing her because he thought 1t
funny, she would have been glad
to know the manner of a man he
was before she gave him the
right to torture her all through
life.
She gave up her life, a needless
and awful sacrifice. but | claim
that any woman is better dead
than married to the asinine sort
of man who thinks humor lies in
torture.
The kind of men who think a
laugh must be based on pain;
that a cry of anguish without
real cause is the most delicious
inspiration for mirth; who worry
and fret and frighten. that they
may laugh, are the kind of men
for all the world to avoid.
They should be penned up to-
gether that they may play prac-
tical jokes on each other, and de-
crease their number by torment
ing worrying and soaring each
other to death.
They should be given limitless

LAND PURCHASED FOR
ADDITION TO SUBDIVISION
New Section to Be Opened at
ChiI|um Castle
Heights.

One of the largest sales of the year
In suburban real estate of Washington
was the one by which the Metropolitan
Loan and Trust Company conveyed to
the Washington Land and Mortgage
Company a tract containing about thir-
ty-four acres and located just north of
Chillum Castle Heights, which the Wash
ington Land and Mortgage Company now
owns. The purchasers have subdivided
the property into 300 building lots, which
they will Immediately put on the market
