WOMEN FOND OF SACRIFICE
Seemingly No Extremes to Which They
viii Not Go for the Husband
They Love.

Women often rush In where angels
with any kind Of judgment would fear
10 go. Strong men are faint-hearted
by comparison to good-intentioned
women in their reckless dashes, usual
ly to give assistance to or throw some
protection around a man.
A case In point is that Of Califor-
MIA woman who has just offered TO give
up her children and sacrifice herself
In devoted effort to make man Of
her husband, rancher. Trying to
make man Of husband is job none
but woman in whose veins flows the
blood of martyrs would think OF. Many
women have tried 1t, but who knows
their names? How many have any
thing better than the frayed ard tat
tered remnant of lifetime wasted in
endeayor 10 make miracle one Of the
routine duties OF domesticity? Only
the woman with the self-sacrificing in
stinct cultivated TO the precipice OF
genius tries it.
If he is not up to the lowest limit Of
tOlefance--a common Weight-by the
time he is-oh, whatever age he hap
pens to be when she has him thrown
on her hands-she may as well make
up her mind TO take him as he is. If
nature, through the centuries during
which men have been evolving, could
not do better with him than what she
sees has been done, why should one
lone woman hope to take it up there
and make him into man? Yet here
is woman who has lived with him
long enough TO be convinced, Offering
TO give up her children for one more
chance to turn husband into a man
before she acknowledges defeat.
1t is not alone great military men
who don't know when they're beaten.

HiQh Cost of Courtind.

Rev. DR.. w. Wofford T. Duncan says
the high cost of counting must be
curbed or there viii be a decrease In
marriages. In the good old days, the
doctor says, when man courted a girl,
he occasionally brought her flowers or
box of candy and she was satisfied.
But the modern girl, he says, collects
gifts from her male admirers as II
these gifts were the premiums of an
advertising concern. There Is n de-
cided mercenary streak in many a girl
Of today" declares Doctor Duncan.
"She not only allows, but expects, the
young man Of the period to spend on
her and for her much more than be
can afford. Even the mercenary spirit
Is cropping up in small children"
says the good doctor. Only recently he
heard some schOolchildren hummi -:
u should worry, should care, l should
marry a millionaire if he should die, 1
should cry should marry another
guy."-New York Times.

dred dollars.
Thereafter she got twenty-five week.
ly. She little guessed the cheapness
OF money in Alaska, or what Steve was
denying himself. And gradually she
settled down to accuStom herself to
his absence. Steve wrote that he
was going into the interior, and she
might not hear from him for while,
but he was not going into any dan.
ger, and she was not to worry.
A letter came two months later, in.
closing five hundred, and announcing
that Steve had struck a rich claim.
Meta wrote out of the Joy Of her
heart, and he answered much later.
That was the last letter Steve received
from Meta.
As the months slipped by and none
Of Stoves letters were answered he
became desperate. At last he settled
down grimly to making his pile. He
trusted Meta, and he believed that IL
she were dead, somebody would have
written. He did make inquiries about
her, but people do not trouble to inter
est themselves on behalf Of those who
are distant, and nobody answered him.
When the two years were ended
Steve saw fortune within his grasp If
he remained third year. He re-
NAMED third, and at the end Of that
time 1t was case Of a cool million If
he remained fourth. So he stayed a
