of large corporation, and drew a
salary Of $50 week. Also, she Kept
cat and a parrot
"For goodness sake, Mary, why
don't you get married." her friends
would say.
Thanks, but I haven't found the
man yet who's good substitute FOR
eighty dollars week." Mary would
answer, laughing.
And nobody would have guessed
that Mary Rochester had ever had a
love affair. Nevertheless, there were
hours OF loneliness when she remem'
bered certain bygone days.
The setting was the seashore. Mary
was twenty-three. less plump, more
wilowy, and the young man who had
his arm round her was tall and slim
nad dark, and had expressive brown
eyes.

"For ever and ever"
All, well they had drfted apart, and
he had gone west and forgotten her.
And perhaps It had all been for the
best. Then Mary would come out OF
her trance and laugh, and tickle the
cats ears, to his Indignation, and tease
the parrot with peanut.
Then. one day, she got letter that
set her heart beating the minute she
saw the well-remembered writing upon
the envelope. 1t was from James. lie
had done well out west, he wrote, and
was returning east for a visit. He

1t was the clay pipe which set the

that the first American Indian tobacco
pipe was taken to England by Ralph
Lare, first governor of Virginia, In
1886. He gave this pipe to Sir Walter
Raleigh
The pipe making industry grew so
rapidly In England that in 1919 there

these pipes were made. The clay

wire through the stem, which was
drnwn out before baking. The pipes
