LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES
COTT TO THE LITTLE MAR
QUISE. CARE OF THE
81 (,To TT, I'D ANNrI1D

SECRET DRAWER
1 have told you before, Little Mar
quise, how l often hope that by some
sort of alchemy you really do know
what is in the letters 1 send you.
Lately 1 have been thinking about
YOU a good deal, and l have almost
come to the conclusion that the an
mails Of my life, as l have put them
down for you, are not basicly much
different from yours.
OF course, 1 know that you lived
hundreds Of years ago, at one OF
the most gorgeous courts that the
world has ever known, and | am just
the wife of an American business
man. Nevertheless, l am quite sure
that human nature has not changed
very much since the time you left
that fragment Of a letter in the
secret drawer-comedy and tragedy,
joy and grief, love and hate, birth
and death, are still a part Of the
luggage that humanity is carrying
about this old earth.
l wonder, dear little Marquise, if
you found in your kingly lover when
he was away from you, and when he
was with you, was two totally differ
ent persons. When Jack is away
from me, l surround him with all
the imagined ideality that l had for
him before we We're married. When
he returns, we have a few weeks of
great happiness, and then, alas he
grows tired-at least he seems 70
grow tired--of me and my life.
Ever since sgd and Melville Sar-
toris We're over her, Jack has seemed
20 be much preoccuried with his
work Ho hardly seems to know
that l am about when he comes
home. Even little Jack said to him
the other night
Daddy, what is the matter with
you? You don't seem like you at
ALL"
When his father asked him what
he meant by that, the child said.
II don't see me in your eyes when
I look at you, and l don't hear me
in your voice when you talk to me.
All Jack said to this was: 'Daddy's
tired, sonny but he seemed more
preoccupied than ever.
This week he has not been home
one evening, telling me that things
were kind of in a miXup at the
office. Something he said yesterday
makes me think he has had some
losses. He tells me nothing Of any
importance about his work, ever. and

zone of the things, Leslie" said
my dear mother, that makes a man
grow tired of his wife, is to be al

Men are queer creatures, my dear

about things, and then the whole

up his mind that his home must he

FENNIWORE-
LANCASTER
ROAD LET
KeOkuk and Madison Firms
Take $4,000 JOb.-To
Begin at Once.

The district No. highway office in
the Herald building, Lancaster, was a
big place Tuesday on account of sew
eral big road lettings.
Alert-looking road men, some of
them big-jowled and stomached con-
tractors, looking for all the world like
ex-barkeeps, rushed to and fro, held
whispered confabs and figured might
lily with stubby lead pencils. One won
dered if prohibition had driven the
saloon men into the highway game but
no Slurs are intended or offense
meant
The result of all the hustle and
hustle was as follows:
Hard Road to FennimOre
The ancaster-Fennimore contract,
from Bidwell Corners to thN south city
limits of Fennimore, went to two bid
ders. This is a 81 mile Improvement
Cameron-Joyce & Co. of Keokuk took
the grading and bridges for $49, 1857 ga.
John Gunnison & Sons of Madison
took the surfacing for 500 ,30152 The
total of the two is $89,069.16.
The contract calls for three 30-foot
span bridges, one six foot bridge to
be widened, a 10X5 box, and numer-
Gus small culverts. The road will be
hard-surfaced 26 foot wide with three
courses of crushed stone.
Bidding was spirited on all ends
of the contract. Cameron-Joyce had a
bid on the whole contract but lost on
that. There were five bids on the grad
ing and bridges and seven bids on
surfacing.
Other Projects Let
A federal project, Shullsburg-M Mon
roe improvement, leading 3A miles
east of Gratiot, surfacing only, was
let to Huff & Kamerude of Argyle,
Wis. This calls for a road 26 foot
wide with six inches base and five
inches of loose stone. It went for
$23, 585.42. The road is part of S. T. L.
20, much travelled route.
The Darlington-Mine Point pro-
ject, 81 miles, now tailings and to be
redressed with light course of stone,
went at $8,28S.00 to Geo. Priestly of
Darlington.
This concluded the lettings for the
day but others will be held as the
season advances.

Conditions At Nome
Greatly Exaggerated

Mrs. Anna Eddy hands the Herald
an interesting clipping describing the
situation at Nome, Alaska, during the
recent diphtheria epidemic $50 called
there According to the authority the
conditions were nowhere near as bad
as described although the dash
through by dogteam with the anti
toxin was epic and made thrilling
reading. Instead of one nurse and one
doctor there were at least two doctors
and nine nurses at Nome. At the time
of a government investigation of con-
ditions at Nome there were no hos
pital cases. 1t is fact, however, that
the government had no anti-toxin at
Nome and the shipment received by
dogteam was very welcome. Congress
