HER "LOvE" RETURNED
WHEN HUSBAND HAD MADE HIM
SELF FAMOUS.



They had been deeply in love when
they married. That was ten years
ago. Much had happened In ten years
and In their case they had drifted
apart. At first there we're little
scraps, mended with kiss and few
loving words. BY degrees the rift be
came larger. She wanted the com
forts, II not the luxuries of life, and
told him many times of the motor cars
and theater boxes she could have had
If she had married Tom, Dick or Harry
instead of him. Once he used to
weave stories Of tomorrow, but to
morrow never came, and finally the
friction became too much for him.
You are never satisfied" he said
after one of their quarrels, according
to New York letter to the Cincin-
natl Enquirer. You have no belief
In me. Perhaps don't amount to
much We don't get on. You remain
here and I'll find place for myself
Ill let you have enough to keep you
going $25 a week"
She agreed to this joyfully, and In
few days he removed to furnished
room not many blocks away. Each
week she received an envelope with
the stipulated amount in 1t. Other
wise they lived as strangers.
The man had only left himself
enough out of his salary to keep him
self alive. There was no overplus for
amusements, and his chief recreation
was reading at the public library
One evening, having finished his
evening paper. he took up pencil and
began to draw on the edge. He had
sense of humor and was making a
comic picture of something he had
just read. He was fond of drawing
and had given much time to it before
his marriage. Then he took sheet Of
paper and drew several comic
sketches, and they amused him so
much that just for fun he sent one
to comic paper. 1t was accepted
and the editor asked for more. He
kept on drawing and in three years
had attained reputation under the
name of "Scorn.", Meanwhile his wife
lived on in the old house. perfectly
eontented and only slightly curious
when her allowance was gradually In
creased. When one day the envelope
contained fifty dollars she decided to
go after him. She called at the place
where he had been employed when
they parted and asked to see him. The
clerk grinned.
He left over year ago."
She rushed to the house where he
had roomed. "He left over a year
ago." she was informed. Still the fifty
dollars arrived regularly.
In California lives a thin man who
Is something of a cynic. His reputa-
ton as a comic artist is established
and money comes easily to him. Once

THE ALLIES VIEW
BY ALDER w. Bryce.

The right of a nation at war to
deprive an enemy nation of its food
supplies rest upon the power of
seige. In beseiging a city, it is not
inhumane to shut off all food sup
plies from the beseiged inhabitants,
because the beseiged may obtain
food at any time by surrendering.
If it were in the power of Britain
to put cord entirely around Ger
many, SO that not q pound Of food
could go into that country, that
wuld not be inhumane. If it were
in the power Of Germany to put a
similar Gordon around Great Brit
ain. that would be perfectly legiti-
mate. But in each case the beseig-
ing power would be bound to OBJ
serve the ordinary rules of warfare,
and not slaughter non-combatants.
The Germans are not observing these
rules, and have killed non com bat
ants on the Falaba and other ships.

THE GERMAN VIEW.
ny hugo Won Kleist

The incident in my memory con-
corning the great Chancellor, Prince
Bismarck. most pertinent to the pres
ent time is a story which | heard
of him in Berlin in the year 1878,
just after the close of the famous
Congress of ations there, which pre-
vented Russia from disrupting the
Ottoman 5mpire. 1t was said that
in one of the most excited sessions
of this congress, Prince Bismarck,
while earnestly and vigorously ad-
dressing some very plain words to
the Russian plenipotentiary. the old
Prince Gortschakoc, suddenly and
with much vehemence stamped his
foot upon the floor, whereupOn the
great Pomeranian Mastiff, which al
ways followed Prince Bismarck,
sprang at the aged Gortschakoff and
would probably have fastened his
great tusks in the Russians throat
had not Bismarck seized him by his
iron collar and dashed him, stun
ned and almost lifeless upon marble
pavement.

Petersburg getting into shape. The
Athletics are rated poorly this year,
yet they had no trouble winning
from the Boston Americans.
There is merit in Florida climate
for big ball teams, and the mag
mates are recognizing the fact. The
showing that has been made in Flor
ida-trained teams has been so good
that the baseball world is bound to
acknowledge that this state is the
best training ground than can be
found, and next spring will see
more big league teams in the state.
Several teams that have been going
to Texas are looking to Florida for
next season or the one that follows.

the other teams were not ready. The

A RECOVERY.

There was a doc" in our town,

He cut a mans appendix out,
Rut sewed his tools inside.
And when he saw his tools were
gone,
With all his might and main,
He quickly ripped the bastlng
threads
And got his tools again.
