TWO SLOW WITH HIS WOOING
Another Had Captured the Fair Wild.
ow Shaun O'Grady Had Looked
Upon as His Own.

Michael died, and Mary, his wife,
was giving him a. grand wake. She
was good to look upon. and Shaun
O'Grady looked with covetous eyes
upon her, the little cottage, and the
thousand dollar insurance which she
would receive. Shaun was a bachelor
with a tidy bit in the band. He sided
up to Mary as she sat at the foot of
the casket.

share 1t with me? Shure, what's the

for you to bear as it is, poor woman"
he said.
Mary looked up. "Thank you kindly,
Shaun, you're always that thoughtful,
faith, the woman hat didn't get you
don't know what she missed"
The next day Shaun supported Mary
at the burial, After the interment he
came forward and. taking her arm,
drew her away from the grave and as.
sisted her to the carriage and they
started home. After a time he said:
"'Tis a. lonesome home you'll now

Children versu. Church.

In a strong article in Suburban Life
Magazine, Margaret Woodward raps
the present-day woman and shows how
the ancient and honorable calling Of
home-making is being neglected by the
modern woman. As an example she
cites the following: Across the street
a new family has moved in, consisting
of father, mother and several small
children. These children are allowed
to amuse themselves by committing
acts QGlawlessness in adjoining yards.
When visited by an irate neighbor,
whose lawn had received q donation OF
tin cam and other denominations. the
mother admitted she did not know
what her children were doing. When
asked why size did not look after them
she offered as an excuse church du.

Estate Duly Divided.

IN the orderly way OF PROBATE law,
Mrs. Cora Van DVyne and Mrs. ELIZA
beth Ball, the immediate women heirs
to the mlller's estate, got their con-
siderable shares, and the Court Of
Chancery in and for Morris county,
upon application, directed the execu-
tors to apply the income of the rover's
share of the estate to the mainte-
nance of the stay-at-home wife and
mother and daughters, the latter now
having grown out of shoe-top frocks
and passed from he braid-down-tfe-
back period. into IaMe early stage of
young womanhood.
Upon the settlement of the estate
Srs. Van Duyne and her husband, the
latter's health requiring a change, re-
moved from Montville straight across
the country to Pasadena. CAL, where
they settled.
Long-Lost Brother Found.
One day last winter, while motoring
about in the new country, Mrs. Van
Duyne visited Los Angeles. She was
driving her car along one of the ave-
nues toward the suburbs when a troll
ley crossing at an angle halted her.
The motorman, capped and coated
in blue, turned his head in her direc-
ton. She recognized him at once.
The motorman was her long-missing
brother.
AS socn as possible she arranged

out formality.
And what a lot of things there was
to tell-the death of the good old faith
er just as he had rounded out his
eightieth year, and of how up to the
very last he had had only the kindest
thoughts for the absent son; Of the
will and the codicil thereto, which
s~afeguarded the one-third share; Of
his own loyal wife and the daughters,
and of the marriage of one to as likely
a chap as there is in the valley, and
of the new baby with eyes like it's
mothers, and just learning to toddle;
of the fire which had reduced the old
homestead to ashes-all these things
and more there were to tell In a rec.
ord OF the years that had come and
gone since he had struck out.
Rover Arranges to Go Home.
There was some telegraphing and
some letter writing on the part of ths
sister, and some hesitation on the
part OF the rover, all of which a
quite natural, and as matters OF the
sort are bound to be settled If only
they are helped along in the right
way, Bert Zabriskie finally decided to
return.
Bronzed from life in the open, with
hair just a little thin at the temples,
but otherwise looking much as he did
when the fever attacked him, Bert
Zabriskie arrived back in Montville-
back to the valley which was no long

the wooded ridge which has resumed
it's normal, and to the river, which

How quickly the news jumped from

Why. In less than a week everybody

pretty everybody said he was mighty

lot better than some folks that had
talked about him.
