An Ounce of Prevention By S'JS!2 BCUC"EILE WiGHT t >ip\right, Hut, L> G. T. Ytckuiskkl "Now. Tom, dear," said little Mrs. Ellis, handing liini a eui> of coffee. "I | ha\e something serious to say to you." . "Yes?" Xlr. Ellis' tone was notably abs< xitniinded. He was looking ut the alluring curve of her soft white arm. She had the cunulugest way of giving her big sleeves a twitch to keep them out of the way us she |>usscd uuything at table, and this morning the sleeve was a great silken one embroidered with Ju|tanese Iris. However, for her own good her husnund had not told her all her attractions for him. Not know- j lug his train of thought, she observed [ only the preoccupation In his tone. 1 This confirmed her In the wisdom of her determination, but It also gave her a queer little disposition to let down the corners of her mouth. "Well, it Is only this, Tom," she pro ? ?ceded, her eyes studiously avoiding J his. Preoccupation in his tone wns had enough; to recognize It In his eyes would be Intolerable. "You see, we j have been staying so closely together | since the wedding, now three whole months. Aren't you Just a little afraid j we are overdoing the devoted? When I 1 see so many married couples who are j Just as happy away from each other, j or more so, I dread the time"? Her Hp J quivered, but tills time Mr. Ellis was giving his attention to the smooth ?whiteness of her neck. He did not an swer, and In a moment she went on In a steadier voice, "You remember the 'ounce of prevention,' dear?" "Worth a |>ound of patent medicine, Isn't It?" he replied frivolously, and when she proceeded gravely her voice had shaded down to actual wlstful ness. "For fear, Tom. that our happiness should lose some of Its tone In suoh constant association as ours I hare been thinking that maybe It would be better not to see each other quite so often. 1 couldn't bear to see that you were growing tired of me"? "Her Infinite variety," ho began to quote, but she Interrupted him with a lift of the kimono clad arm that set his thoughts adrift again. "We must con sider the subject seriously, dear," she said softly and plaintively. "Suppose we plan deliberately to keep new to each other by tnklng some of our pleasures away from eaeh other." "Goodness, Betty!" he exclaimed. "I thought we were married in order to enjoy ourselves together." "We did, but see how people get j after a few years! The Thomases, : now, for Instance?how different they ! are! And yet I am old enough to re member that they were perfectly self ish together at first. There are the ltipleys too. They are congenial and apparently the best of friends, but Mrs. Ripley doesn't seem to mind at all that her husband spends the greater part of his time away from her. It Is ! only that I dread such a phase In our life"." lie looked at her in surprise. Who would have thought her capable of such serious consideration of a life problem this pretty creature of sun shine and smiles? Just then a thought popped Into his mind. Suppose she were already getting tired ?Just a little bored with him! It would be like her to contrive some tactful way of telling him. And then Betty had been a lielle; there had been a score of fel lows dancing attendance upon her, even up to the very day of the wed ding Perhaps she was feeling dull, and no wonder, with such a poor stick as he as her only companion, even if she did love him as she professed. lie pondered a few moments, making a great sacrifice, while trivially engaged in sipping his fragrant breakfast cof fee. When he spoke his tone was cheerful. ?- _____ I uell, Betty darling, he remarked, ?"'that had not occurred to me until you spoke, hut you are right. There Is danger of overdoing the devoted, and we mustn't get tired of each other we Just must not! 1 have not been to the -club?not since the wedding. I will go there to dinner this evening, and you 1 must accept one of your numerous In vitations. You have I>olly to go with you, and I will send a carriage to be at your disposal for the evening." ?"Yes," acquiesced Betty In a small voice, keeping her eyes upon her plate. She had not expected her Ideas to be adopted with so little protest, and It was not cheering to find herself so correct In her forethought. He looked at her sharply for a mo ment, then came over to her side of the table and kissed her goodby roost af fectionately. She longed to tell him that It would seem like a month for him to be gone until late that evening before she should see him again, but no?If be was already feeling the pull of the silken chain that bound tlwm to gether she must not let him kDow that she wis r?vnre of It. She sprang mer rily up. . cut with him to the door, chattc lug uliout this and that, as though her every thought was not ef the evening that was going to ho so lonely without him. When he turned back at the corner for a last look the wave of her small hand was positively hilarious. The ?' y c.t.y "rat her Im pulse was to remain quietly at home for the evening, but he was going to the club, and she roust not be behind him In carrying out the plan. She accepted Mrs. Ripley's .Invitation to hear Nonllca with her. In the after noon she dressed and went to a tea, re'?' firv h - v - ? dreasuiaser uutl when evening fltiullj came she arr.iyid her self for the sac ritiee. It was no fun at all to Huff oul her gulden hair when there w;u u> one there hut l?ol!y to remark upon the ef feet, ami then Iiolly ni painfull)" mat ter of fact. She would wear the violet mil, with the yellow luce cascades. even If there was nobody there to tell her 1, waa the prettiest tire mm that ever a pretty woman wore. It was a sort of aoleum aatlsfc c.iou to lie making her k -If lovely without the encouragement of an admirer aittlng over in that big ehair. his knee over the arm and a eigar in hla mouth, hut ut the mental picture I she smothered an Irrelevant sob. Holly { looked at her acutely. "I?believe I am uliout to take cold," faltered the little mistress mendacious ly. "My?my throat feels so queer." When she entered the box und threw her great white cloak in a luxurious heap in the chair behind her. Mrs. Kile ley glanced over her with a look of die elded approval. "You were never prettier. Betty," she whispered, "and then It Is so sen sible of you not to Is? foolish u!x>utbnv ing Tom Kills dangling after you every where you go." "That Is what we agreed only this morning." said Betty In a burst of con fidence, and then she grew suddenly silent. Her eyes, sweeping the crowded house, had fallen upon Tom Gills In a ?troup of men down near the footlights. As the moments went on she began to feel aggrieved that he did not even glance toward the Itipley box, although he surely had known of the invitation. She wus glad when the music began, because her throat still had that queer feeling, and her lips wanted to tremble. Nordlen's su|>erb presence and her sing ing failed for the first time to absorb Betty's attention. She would not look again at that group down near the stage, but she could not keep from see ing them In her mind's eye. She waa glad there were others In the box who felt like tnlklng. She did not want Mrs. Ulpley to regard her too eloeely after the drop of the curtain. The hum of conversation began In a moment, and she half turned toward those near her seeming to listen, although she : heard not a word. Still she would not look below hor. "Boo!" came a frivolous exclamation at her shoulder, ami she started vio lently. The rich blood surged Into her face. She did not need to see whoso hand was resting on her arm. "Why, Betty Ellis," cried one gay voice, "you don't mean to tell me you are actually blushing over Tom, you aucleut married woman, you! The blushes are for the buds." "Then they are for Betty." said Tom gallantly. "What rosebud ever looked sweeter than she does this minute?" "Tom!" she remonstrated, and he laughed and sat down beside her. When the others were absorbed ill themselves again he whispered to her: "Forgive me, Betty, if 1 bored you by i coming. I Just couldn't help it. 1 had forgotten all about the Uipley invita tion until 1 saw you in the box. I came along just to be doing something." "Don't," she begged, and the eyes i that were lifted to his were full of! tears, lie covered her hand a moment with his and waited; then, when she bad slyly wiped the moisture from her | lids and had swallowed that trouble- j some lump, she whispered: "I was just mistaken after all. I don't believe in preventive measures like this. We are not tired yet. Is>t's just wait until I we are." "Done, Betty!" he ngreed rapturous- j ly. "You are so sensible!" "Sensible!" interrupted Mrs. Uipley, turning quickly at the word, which hnd drifted to her ears. "Isn't she so, Tom? I was just telling her a little while ago that she was most remark J ably so." The two accepted the unmerited i praise unblushingly and looked at each other with a happy laugh. I Sliirli'N From Java. In Java the European "r<>sidpnt" of a government station is a very impor tant personage, to whom great homage is rendered by the natives. A story Is told of one resident who was thrown out of his dogcart while descending a hill. He had barely recovered from the stunning fall when he caught sight of his secretary?who had been follow ing in his own carriage?coming bound ing down the steep road like a big In dia rubber boll, roiling over and over ia th ? dust. "Hello, have you been np- j set too?" raked the resident. "No, resident." sputtered the fat little sec retary, scrambling to his feet again, "but 1 thought if the resident leaps 1 j leap too." During a cholera scare another resi dent Invited a widow to remove to a high hill as a precaution against the disease. She, however, said that she thought iter time to die had come, and as her husband had been a person of Importance In his lifetime she asked only for the Inestlmnble privilege of having her grave dug next to the resi dent's own.?Chicago News.

' ' i The Work Ahead < FOR THE Coming Congress I TIIIO opening of congress gives the | couu.;-j a now topic of discus siun. anil Mgus ure not lucking < that the coming session will be , ill many res|>ects a lively one. Although the Hepublicaus have a large majority . In both brunehes of cougreaa, there is a pro pert that matters will eottie up for ? consideration upon which the members I of the majority party are not wholly < agreiMl, ao that there will lie a chance j for the development of new factional ' i alignments anil unprecedented political ( situations. New Issues have recently j _ come to the front in respect to which j party lines have not been strictly drawn. Among the topics which will I he uppermost in debate will he railroad ? rate legislation, the work of construct ' Ing the I'anama canal, federal supervi- < siou of insurance companies, tariff re- 1 vision, limitation of representation ( from southern states on account of al- , lcged suppression of the colored vote, admission of new states anil matters ' connected with the insular possessions of the T'niteil States. The leading place ( will he taken by the subject of railroad ' rate legislation. The house of repre- 1 sentatives passed a bill on this subject last winter, but the senate adjourned without taking action on It. This being i a new congress, the matter must be , taken tip again from the beginning, nnd , It Is the plan of the advocates of rail road rate legislation In the house to pass a new bill on the same lines as that of the Inst session, but somewhat more explicit. They hope to get this bill through early in the season and thus give the senate no excuse for In action on the ground of Insufficient time to consider the matter. ( The Fifty-ninth congress Is composed j largely of old members?old, that Is to ( say, In the sense of having already seen congressional service. There are 380 men In the house of representatives, and 200 of these, or 75 per cent, have I ? I RPEAKEll JOBEPH O. CANNON. i occupied sects iu tlie chamber before, i The percentage in the last congress 1 was G<). Fifteen states are represented iu the Fifty-ninth congress by the same men who represented them in the Fifty eighth congress. Among the new men in the senate are James A. Ilemenway of Indiana, Frank li. Braudegee of Connecticut and Itohert Marion I-a Fol- ! lette of Wisconsin. Mr. Heraenway 1 took the seat vacated by Senator Fair- I banks when he became vice president, i The new member from Indiana is re- i garded as one of tlie ablest legislators at Washington and has the advantage . of a long and busy service In the house j of representatives to aid him In becom ing a leading figure among the senators. ( Senator Braudegee. who succeeds the late Senator Orville II. Flatt, has also 1 served In the house. He has the dis- i tlnetlon of being the youngest member j of the new senate, and. as he has quite ] a reputation as an orator, is expected , to become a figure on the floor of the Renate chamber. Another new senator from New England is W. Murray Crane. Speaker Cannon is likely to be the ' same dominant figure in the house of representatives of the Fifty-ninth con gress that he was In the Fifty-eighth. J Though he prefers to be cons' ml an "easy boss." his rule over .!;?? house is , none the less fllie often carries , his points without crent'ug any ill feel- j ing because of bis lo-e ,f humor and . command of wit and homely illustra- I Hons. One of the questions on which 1 Speaker Cannon differs from some of his Republican colleagues is that of the tariff. He does not believe In re vision. "I nm not in favor of hanging tbe country up by the tall," was the way he put it In referring to the sub ject recently. Asked to explain his ] ideas on this head more fully he de scribed the disturbances to industry 1 which he thought would follow any ef- ! forts In the direction of tariff revision ( and added: "We used to swing dogs by the tall when we were boys. It . must have been a very uncomfortable 1 sensation for the dog It would be Just . as uncomfortable a sensation for this great country, and. by Jove, I am not one to sit quietly by and see it at tempted!"
