hoping to save enough to buy one OF
these good Jefferson county farms some
where near Moler'S Cross Roads. He
reports his wife as being in good health

The Sunday closing law was carefully
observed last Sunday in Shepherdstown.
Both drug stores were closed all day,
being open only for the sale of medicines.
Those who are regular subscribers to the
Sunday papers received them through the
mail. @. w. Freeman, proprietor OF the
bakery and confectionery, closed his
place also, but delivered orders for ice
cream that had been given him on Satur-
day. J. M. Toliver kept his restaurant
closed, and also declined TO deliver any
goods that had been previously ordered.
There is disposition on the part OF some
persons TO create dissatisfaction with the
Supdoy cIOcino louy ~, eaaI;,o ,,praacOn-
able enforcement of it and to make it
Objectionable. There is no intention on
the part OF our town authorities to make
it offensive in any way, and we hope that
our druggists and others will stand firm
in their present attitude, which is, we are
sure, satisfactory to majority of our
people. Proper enforcement of the law
will be hardship to no one.

M0RGAN'S FUNERAL

New York, April 14-Funera services over the body of J. Pier pont Morgan were held at 1 0 o'clock this morning at S t. Georges Protestant Episcopal church, where he had worshiped for half a century. Afterwards special train conveyed the fun. eral party to Hartford, Conn.,. for final services at the Morgan mausoleum in Cedar Hill ceme. tery.
 Blanketed by a covering of 5000 red roses, Mr. Morgan S ia vorite flower, the coffin was re. moved from the Morgan library, in which the body had lain in State since Friday night, shortly before 10 o'clock, for the church. A vested choir of 250 voices pre- ceded the funeral party to St. George Behind the choir came the clergy, then the pail bearers, the coffin and the fami. ly.
 Fifteen hundred persons, one of the most notable gatherings New York has seen for many years, were crowded into the church. Admission was by card only. So great had been the de. mand for tickets that many hun dreds could not be accommodated Not half the congregation of St. Georges with whom Mr. Nor. gan had worshiped, obtained ad. mission.
 There was no variation in the services from the Episcopal Tit, ual. The chant from the 39th and 90th psalms, Lord, let me know my end and the number oi my days" was sung as the coff- in entered the church. ':Asleep in Jesus" and Lead Kindly Light" favorite hymns of MT. Morgan, were sung by the choir; Cavalry" was Sung as a so!o. As the funeral party left the church the choir sang the reces. sional, For All Thy Saints Who From Their Labors Rest"

A GOOD BREAKFAST.
Some Persons Never Know What lt
Means.

A good breakfast, a good appetite
and good digestion mean everything
to the man, woman or child who has
anything to do, and wants to get
good start toward doing 1t.
A Mo. man tells of his wife's good
breakfast" and also supper, made out
Of Grape-Nuts and cream. He says:
Il should like to tell you how much
good Grape-Nuts has done for my wife.
After being in poor health for the last
IS years, during part of the time
scarcely anything would stay on her
stomach long enough to nourish her,
finally at the suggestion of a friend
she tried Grape-Nuts.
Nov, after about four weeks on
this delicious and nutritious food, she
has picked up most wonderfully and
seems as we'll as anyone can be.
EVERY morning she makes a good
breakfast on GrapeNuts eaten just as
it comes from the package with cream
or milk added; and then again the
same at supper and the change in her
is wonderful. a-.,..

Different Altouether,

Happy lovers they were, both devot-
cd to dancing both partakers of the

dancer; he far less adept, with no con-

rhythm.
In point Of fact, he was not SO good
at dancing as he led the lady to be-
lieve by his fervent descriptions OF
his prowess. Halfway though the Gin
derella the lady's beautiful gown was
sadly torn, her dainty slippers bore
marks of a heavier tread, her toes
ached from stampings like unto those
of a Nasmyth hammer. Eventually
she decided to give up in despair.

Gladiator in Armor Exhumed.

During some important excavations
undertaken at Mount Cavo, in the Ro-
man Campagna, in the hope of tracing
an ancient temple devoted to Jupiter,
the diggers struck upon an extensive
second century cemetery, which had
evidently been planned out on the sur
face Of a gigantic landslip on the side
of the mountain caused by earth
quakes, which had buried the older
existing buildings.
= A giant warrior, or gladiator, clad
in iron armor, was discovered in one
OF the tombs, which was covered with
big tiles taken from the Temple OF
Tiberius. A number Of bronze coins
bearing the effigy OF the Empress Of
Faustina, in addition to quantity of
rings, safety pins and brooches Of a
very early period, a terra-cotta ele-

vase, containing Inscriptions. are

I've answered that question to-day.
Seems like the whole town was IN

HAS the post-office inspector been
here?"
HE was in here this morning and
made just the routine examination. He
didn't ask no questions, though I'M
derstand he has been sleuth1ng
around up to Widow Smiths, where
Charlie Rouser boards. If he's looking
for anything wrong with Charles ae'
counts it's my private opinion that he
amt going to find it. I've been all
over the books twice today and there

money came from that we found be-

mo, and don't see that it's any OF
| my affair. His books is right, and his
stamps and his stamped envelopes is
all accounted for. Maybe he made 1t
| in Wall street, or maybe somebody
| left it there with him for safe-keep-
| ing"
AS I recalled Davis parting instruc-
lions to me when l had first come
out to Ardway, l was more and more
surprised that he had not investigat
ed further at the post-office. He had
seemed to think that the clue to the
whole mystery would be found there
and he had particularly charged me
| to find out to whom Lock Box No. IL
had been rented. I decided to ask
Miss Cox If she knew anything about 1t.
Seventeen has never been rented
as long as I have had anything to do
with the Office 1t is away off there
| in the corner where it is hard to see
into. There's always been more
boxes than there was any call for. Not
one Of them in the lower row ever has
been rented, even in summer, when
there's a lot Of city folks out here"
do you ever remember of seeing
any mail addressed to that box?"
She worked industriously at her
crocheting for a minute or two before
replying and then, putting it aside, said
thoughtfully:
'It's funny that you should have
asked me that
"Why?"
II don't know that I've any bust
ness telling you," said Miss Cox, as
she debated with herself whether or
not she was talking too much, but I
am as anxious as anybody to find out
what's become of Charlie ,Rouser, and
from what I've seen of you l guess
you're a sight more likely to find him
than Jim Dobbs, the constable. If
wasn't sure in my own mind that Char
lie hadn't done nothing out of the way,
don't know as I'd even be telling
you about it. But since you've asked
me, guess l will"
She hesitated, studying my face as
if trying to read there whether or not
meant harm to the missing post.

I rode in several cars and finally
decided to try out little car which
attracted attention because of it's very
small size. Still wearing the light
overcoat, stepped into the little buzz
wagon and took the usual trip up the
street and back.
On my return Pat very excitedly
grabbed my hand and said:
"Begorra, Frank, don't buy that car,
whatever ye do"
inquired the reason, and he said:
Faith, I watc1d ye going up the
street, and I swear We looked as
though We had wheels on yer over

Wife IN name ONLY
Marriage for Money and Title
Turns Out to Be a Real
Love Affair. 80. b. IT.
By GEORGE MUNS0N.

All London society was whispering
and questioning, for Lord Rensley
was on his way home to England after
an absence OF year. He had shot
tigers in India, had speared salmon
In Alaska, and hunted grizzlies in the
wilds of western, Canada And all
the while Lady Rensley had kept open
house at the Abbey. Now he was
expected home; he would arrive In
two weeks. Actually he arrived =
week earlier and unexpectedly.
They had been married nearly three
years before. Lady Rensley had been
Miss Edith Kane, OF Cleveland. and
her father was one of the twelve
richest men in America. The mar
rage had been considered singularly
fortunate, for the Rensley family
dated back five hundred years-though
not the title, and his lands were ex-
tensive, although improbable. Miss
Kane's dowry would restore the old
abbey and enable her husband and
herself to assume their rightful place
In tho social hierarchy. And so
Rensley had won the beauty of Cleve-
land. ~ -
This Is what happened three hours
q ter the marriage: He and his bride
wore face to face in their apartments
at the Eversley hotel. The bride
drew off her engagement ring media
lively and handed it tn him and said,
without trace of passion:
II shall wear my marriage ring, but
not this. The bargain is an equal one
and ] am satisfied. You will never
have cause to be ashamed of me in the
eyes of the world. Goodnight, Lord
Rensley." -.-
"You mean," he asked, that our
marriage is to be one in name only?"
"Why, what else did you expect?''
she answered mockingly, though her
lip was quivering. You never loved
me. You sought me for my fortune,
as you for your title" And SO she
turned away and they said no more.
That he had sincerely loved her che
did not know. nor he that she could

Monuments to Mark Twain.

Mark Twain is to have two monu-
ments in Missouri, one at his birth

by the state. He deserves them both,

for the Florida memorial little too

forted tired world" But is It a
tired world? The fashion nowadays is
to praise literature in the terms Of
Sancho Panza's blessing on him who
invented sleep, but is as dubious a
compliment as Pope's tribute to an
industrious contemporary writer.
"Sleepless himself, to give his read

hausted who gets good from Mark
Twain; he is one of the favorite au-
thors Of young people.

Good Idea to Let LESS Criticism and
More Comradeship" Be Your
Guiding Motto.

LESS criticism and more comrade-
ship" would be a helpful maxim for
all homes.
It is easy enough to be pleasant to
the casual acquaintance, but the great
difficulty lies in being decent to those
who are devoted to us-to those who
are ever willing to forgive our short
comings. There is no duty above treat
ing your friends courteously and try
ing to illuminate the general monot'
ony of the lives of those you love.
In home life tact will succeed often
where command will fail. Sugges-
lions will go farther than argument.
Direction is so much better than die
tation. Criticism of loved ones is a
vice that takes possession Of one like
a stimulant, or drug, once 1t is en-
.couraged. 1t may begin In our So
called high moral standard and hatred
Of sin. But once it becomes a habit,
