It WAS REAL LOVE
BY MYRTLE BAIRD WEBSTER.

Peter Lowden was a disappointed
man He had been six months in the
United States and half that time in
Chicago, and II seemed as though that
period had been set aside by some
cruel destiny as a special purgatorial
test for his stanch spirit.
I'm wearin' ava for a sight of
auld Scotia's heather bloom" he
sighed as from a deep dark pit of
penury and disbursement. And
Jessie!-"
That was where honest loyal
Peters heart pinched hardest He
could philosophize calmly over high
hopes quickly blasted as to sudden
wealth and position in the new far
countrie." He was content with a
dish Of weak brose and an occasional
finnan haddie-but Jessie, light of his
heart! How he had hoped to wed his

1t had come about strangely. She.
an orphan, had left the little town
where both had been born a few
months in advance of Peter. She
had written him as agreed only once,
to furnish him with the penciled ad-
dress of the home in Chicago where
she had found employment as lady's
maid. Armed with this, Peter started
to try his own fortunes in America
and to be near his future bride.
For three months in New York
Peter wore out shoes and patience
looking for work. Finally he saved

Folklore Of the Raven.

r. Bosworth Smith, an Englishman,
recently made an exhaustive study of
the place of the raven in folklore, in
religious legends and In literature. 1t
is a curious commentary on the peo-
pie OF some Christian nations that
they should hold the raven in abhor-
renee, when the legends, and in some
cases the authentic histories, OF the
church tell them that the bird which
they shun was the companion of a
dozen or so Of saints and martyrs who
gained rather than lost Ia sanctity
from the companionship.

moves the body's urinous waste and

filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from 1t 500 grains Of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital importance OF keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots OF water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast each morning
for few days and your kidneys will
act fine. This famous salts Is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
Juice. combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to clean and

should take now and then to keep

WRONG VIEWS OF MARRIAGE
Brooklyn Lawyer Tells of Some Popu-
lar Impressions That Are En-
tirely Erroneous.

Some persons believe, says Mr.
Hugo Hirsh OF the Brooklyn bar, in
Case and Comment, that marriage
can be entered into by any man or
woman, regardless of age, race. re-
lationship, or condition. But in this
they are mistaken. for every state has
its own peculiar laws regarding, limit
ing, and circumscribing entrance into
this relationship as the same may De
affected by those provisions.
Some persons believe that fraud.
force. duress, coercion, used for the
purpose of bringing about marriage
between man and woman. do not af-
feet the legality OF the relationship,
but in this they are mistaken, because
every state and territory has a law
providing for the annulment Of mar
riages caused by fraud, force, etc.
Some men believe that wives are
chattels and may be beaten into SUB
mission. This is a grave error, for In
many Of the states such conduct Is
cause for an absolute divorce, and In
nearly all of the states It is cause for
a legal separation.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up Mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make 1t at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get a large bottle Of the famous
old recipe for about 80 cents.
Don't stay gray! Try 1t! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does It so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with IL and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time, by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy

Moleskins have been extensively
used in this country during the last
few years in making fur garments,
and practically all of the supply has
been imported from Europe. In the
belief that the common mole of east
ern United States produces fur of
equal value, skins were submitted to
professional furriers, who stated that
the quality is superior to the foreign
product A report on the economic
status of the eastern species was pub
lished during the year. The mole In
habiting the northwestern coast is
larger than the common eastern spe-
cies, and number of these have been
collected in order to obtain a report
on the quality of the pelt. If the tex
ture of the fur proves to be as good as
that of the eastern animal, there Is no
reason why trappers should not secure
a good income by capturing these ami
mails, as the area they inhabit is ex-
tensive. In many localities an acre
OF ground supports as many as a hun
dred individuals. II this little animal
can be profitably trapped for its fur
the problem of freeing agricultural
areas from It will practically be

only clue to Jessie.
Then came a month in Chicago
where the inexperienced lad patrolled
the city streets, seeking the lady of

disappointment. He spent his last

he recalled the wretched woman on

might be dead, or-wedded to anoth-
