and broke the spell whose power each OF them
felt. The man, who had bent over toward
her. Strengthened himself up. Her strangely
moved voice became mute He merely pressed
her hand once more. Then she disappeared
in the depths Of the room.
The century-od church on the Schlossberg
was filed that night to the doors. The can
dies in their iron sockets on the gray walls
threw an uncertain pickering light on the rich
" carved altar Of age-darkened oak, on the
dove which hung over the chancel on pict-
ures from long vanished times and on the
many, many men and women in the seats in
the body Of the church and the choir.
The gold-colored square Of silk forming
BACKGROUND for the altar behind the cruciix
shimmered like the sun when the light broke
through it, and wonderful woman's voice,
soft and full of feeling foated out through the
vaulted space over the audience.
Though l speak with the tongues of men
and of angels and have not love, am become
as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal."
The voice stirred the congregation, which
had come to the concert each one TO give his
mite for the relief of the men who out there in
the field were suffering so many privations and
hardships.
Kurt Heinzius looked up TO the dim organ
choir, where Regina was singing He did not
see her But her tones moved his heart, as
her whole personality had long moved it, and
It seemed to him that he could see the angels
candles brightly burning-a symbol Of happi-
ness for Regina and for himself. 1t seemed
to him as if his own hard had been chosen to
light them for the first time He gave a start
as the last note died away and the organ be
gan to play the closing number.
Side by side with Regina and her mother
he walked up the valley to their house. To the
left little stream ran and the night wind
sang in the tops of the ancient trees. Captain
Heinzius had silently pressed Regina's hand
and she had understood.
"And have not love"-he repeated the text
and saw in the blue light of the summer night
a radiance in Reginas eyes and a emile upon
her lips
"Love-it ought to he able to overcome much
nay, everything life. Yet there are
chasms which even it cannot bridge
Thus spoke Frau Wolter, harshly and bitter
ly, and the smile on Reginas face vanished
81 know Of only one such chasm," he an
swered, quickly. "A chasm into which one
casts his honor-that love could never bridge"
A dry laugh was Frau VOTERS answer.
Eyes, that is life" she added.
II don't know said Regina softly; there
may be a love which pardons even that
NO" replied Kurt IIeinnus emphatically
mo. never. Like two saints, they 20 through

hands out to each other-Love and Honor.
Everything great and splendid that happens
happens through them. One without the other
is poweress. Of all the precious things on
this earth honor stands first 1t must remain
pure and spotess. blot on the honor of my
house or my family would be to me deadly
poison, killing all my enjoyment of life. And
in such case love would never help me out
never"
They had reached the house, and when the
friendly lamplight illuminated the room he
was startled by what he saw in Regina's face.
1t was ashy and haggard and the expression
less eyes stared into vacancy.
Regina, what's the natter" he asked, anx
iously. "Was the excitement of singing too
much for you?'
She shook her head.
"Nothing's the matter. | will go and get
some refreshments"
"No; don't. will go myself"
And Frau Wolter pushed Regina back from
the door and went out.
Regina leaned on the table, her head bowed.
Her arms dropped Imply at her side and over
there. towering above her, stood the man who
had taken away her soul, whose heart fought
against hers. Only an hour ago she had be-
lieved in her fortune--in a great, solemn, en-
rapturing happiness. And now?
"A blot upon the honor Of my house would
be TO me deadly poison, killing all my enjoy
ment Of life"
She heard the words again and again. Now
she knew what must happen. Was there no
- 49,
minutes, those btterest minutes?
In helpless fear her glance flew unwilingly
10 the angel. Hurts eyes had followed hers.
Suddenly he stood beside her and his hot hands
casped her cold trembling fingers. His voice
sounded close to her ear, which was almost
stopped by her heartbeats.
Regina, can't put what want to say into
words. You know how deep into my heart you
have grown, with your goodness and your
charm You know that life would be cherries
for me without you-that love you very. very
dearly. Let me light the angels candles, for
you and for me-"
But she drew back. With big, Mortified eyes
she stared at him, as she took her hands out of
his. Then she slowly shook her head:
"No; il cannot-it must not be. II can never
be-
Her voice was now clear and calm
"Regina"--
She raised her hand protestingly.
"Neverl Don't ask me why. 1t cannot be-"
With that she left the room. He was alone.
He stared after hereafter her who no longer
seemed the same to him. from whom all ten
derness and goodness had been stripped and
nothing remained but offshness and seff-will.
What was the matter? That was the question

THE BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES

The manufacture of non-alco-
holic beverages causes many in
dustries to spring up in the wake
of Prohibition legislation.
In Oregon at least one brew
ing establishment-the million
dollar Weinhard plant at Port
land-is making 5000 barrels
daily.
In Salem there are two large
fruit juice establishments, and
smaller ones are springing up in
many places in western Oregon,
The We.nhard factory has a
capacity of 10000 barrels per
month and employs rs hands
and ships to four states.
The importation of liquors on
a large scale keeps down the
output of the home product but
this may be changed.

BIG BURDEN ON CANADA

According to recently pub
lished reports, the opel alton of
the government-owned railway
lines in Canada is proving a
heavy burden to the taxpayers.
The figures show a loss of al
most 100000 to the people
of Canada. In operation alone
the five government railways
spent $102,13 for every $1OO Of
revenue they earned, whereas,
on the other hand, the average
operating cost of all the lines
thus conducted in the Dominion
was brought down to 1884 for
every 500 earned. In this, as in
every other instance on record
where accepted business prac-
tice is made. .subservient to po-
lit.cal necessity, the public
shoulders the deficit and pays
the bills.
"The moral of the Canadian
experiment" says the Railroad
Employee, should not be lost to
those on this side of the border,
and it is to be hoped that it may
influence the development of
fairness on the part of the pub
lie towards the railroads On
whose prosperity the welfare of
such a substantial percentage of
our citizenship in that employ
ment depends"

be sure we shall have every one Of
our big crowd of friends at IT'D we
will go straight to our own coy little
fiat, gayly playing at housekeeping
you the presiding genius-happy as
the day is long"
Being a sensible girl, she is we'll
pleased with the mental picture. She
knows beforehand that she is not to
marry rich man and will have to do
her own homework, but that thought
is not appalling to her. The girl who
loves the man she WEEDS is happy over
the knowledge that she can transform
even a plain little fiat into an earthly
paradise for him, and prepare whole
some meals for him that are fit for
king.
In burst OF confidence, she con-
fides to her young women friends that
she need never be ashamed to have
her Harry bring home Unexpectedly
any number of friends for dinner. She
can cook a steak to turn, cream po-
tatoes and bake f1aky biscuits that
would tempt the appetite of an cpl
cure, to say nothing OF her delicious
layer cake and homemade preserves
remarks which her friends store in
their memory.
The ceremony Is scarcely over ere
her friends begin to throng their mod
est little fiat. Acquaintance, friends,
and cousins flock to see her by the
dozens. Terror strikes to her heart
as she counts the numbers. Not only
is there an insuf1ciency Of dishes to
go around, but there's an alarming
drain on the larder. Worst Of all, the
poor frustrated bride has to slip OFF
her pretty clothes and get into the
kitchen and cook, cook, cook.
To be sure, they do not remain long
but they leave the young wife so
thoroughly tired out with baking,
broiling, frying and stewing, to say
nothing of puttering over pot and
pans, that she is more ready to cry
than laugh over honeymoon joys that
did not materialize.
This is especially the case if hubby
is fairly tearing his hair with worry
over the terrible expenses and debts
that are piling up. The first fort
nights experience is usually quite
enough to show him, beyond all doubt
ing, that the young couple who have
a host Of friends are wiser in spend
ing their honeymoon beyond their
reach. If the bride must 'pay the
piper" that is, cook for them, the calls
of persons she is not particularly in
terested in are anything but welcome.
One last word of advice-be chary Of
calling on the bride until the honey
moon is weIl-nigh over, in such cases.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1916-06-21
WHY BRIDES ARE DISSATISFIED.

You may buster and blow, but we know
what is bliss!
Here are laughter and love, and hug
and a kiss.
No clustering mind can reach heaven,
we guess,
And home may be more-it should never
be less.
It's amusing often to hear engaged
couples planning their future. If they
have wealth, where they shall go on
their honeymoon is a matter Of no
anxiety; gold throws open the gates
to every avenue of pleasure. He says,
'rWhere would you like to go, dear?
and after the trip to We hington is
settled upon by her, she leaves the
rest to his judgment and the days that
follow the bridal hour are one long,
sweet dream of JOY and gayety.
The young man who has not money
TO burn" intends that his bride shall
be Just as happy. 1--WE shall not nave
money to spend in travelling about, "
he explains, "but we will be quite as
happy putting the money to wiser
use. After the wedding (and you may
