2HJ3 came among t lem in strange
M reticence; tactfully aimed ques
tions met with no success. There was
a kind of haughtiness about the new
resident which forbade intimacy.
Later it was the exacting townsfolk
who encouraged the coldness. Mrs.
(Jay was not desirable, they decided.
True, her frocks in their modish good
taste were superior, and t ie li :ngaio\v
she had taken the iinest in town.
There was craning of necks 011 Sun
day when the remote neighbor attend
ed service ut the beautiful stone
church, whose ancient date was regis
tered on the doorpost. The organ was
the pride of ail. It was the gift of a
now great musician who had cotne from
I'lainsviile in his boyhood.
Rupert liolf had repeatedly prom
ised to return to his old home town to
give an exhibition of his skill. The
promise had b'en unrealized.
One day printer placards announced
"that the musician was to arrive that
week in I'iainsville; the following
Sabbath he would play upon the gift
organ in the beautiful church.
The placard in the store window
seemed to scream at her with its red
letters—Rupert RolfT Rupert Rolf!
And next Sabbath he was to play at
the church she attended. Well, might
she not still attend?
"Good-by," said the little girl; "my
mamma would not want me to stop.
Oh, Mrs. Gay, your eyes are wet."
Mrs. Gay laughed shakily. "Why, so
they are," she, said. *»■
£he wore a dark dress the day of
Rupert Rolf's church recital. She went
early to take her seat in the gallery,
and sat palpitating throughout the
preliminary opening of the service.
The minister explained that lie was
waiting, with iittle hope, the appear
ance of Rupert Rolf. ' The musician
had not arrived ia the town as ex
pected, detu ! by engagements, but
he l>ad sent ' tter, assuring his pres
ence if poss, L E, at t''3 morning serv
ice.
The allotted time of waiting passed. 1
The minister looked, smiling, over his
people. "Our usual organist is out of
town," lie said. "I wonder if some j
one will not volunteer to play for us
this morning? Please," he begged— 1
and paused. There was no response;
again the request was given.
"This is an unusual circumstance,"
the minister explained, troubled. "Will
not some one kindly help In this man
ner?"
Again 110 response.
Some one arose In the gallery—sig
nified her willingness.
The audience could not see the vol
unteer organist who went swiftly to
take her place before the keys. They
saw a dai..-clothed back, an envelop
ing small hat.
The music poured forth. It was an
offertory. This wc . a musician indeed
who j laved for them; untrained ears
i cogi .zed the sympathetic skill, the
beautiful rendering of a great compo
sition.
She stood a moment, fli.ding her
v—the volunteer organist was the
disapproved Mrs. (Jay. Her face shone
hite and sweet beneath the drooping
brim of tile prim black hat—fffe.-i she
was seated beyond their sight. The
minister i-anie down ti,■ • pulpit stair
hurriedly afterward tlint lie might not
miss ii •, t J c.vieiid his thanks. Many
lingered, looking back curiously. A
' man arose in the rear of tie building
.—a distinguished-appearing blonde
nun. He, too, pressed hurriedly for
ward until he stood with the minister
and the one who luid come to his as
sistance. P.ut the man's iiand went
out first to the woman—"Gay," he
murmured chokily; "Gay!"
The little woman smiled; a smile
which He' her blue eyes all at once
ashino. "Rupert!" she answered him;
the' r: inlster waited. Suddenly his
'hand went ont to the man. "Rupert
Rolf," cried Reverend Roberts. "Here
and I did not see you."
"I arrived very late," the -musician
replied. "My substitute Was already
at her post filling acceptably my
place." Lie whirled abou.. "Mr. Rob
erts," siild Rupert Rolf, "let me pre
sent to you—my wife."
,~i> Tho minister hesitated —"Mrs. Gay,"
"Gay," said the musician, "i* my
wife s given name. To you I may as
well now explain. My wife and I were
rival musicians. We met abroad, upon
a musical tour. After our marriage
we traveled together giving recitals. I
had lived but for my music uefore I
met her. You know, my life was so
ordenjti. And —in an artist's u*adnes3
of pride—l found myself humiliated
one night, the very night I had so
wished to excel — by uiy wife's su
perior performance. I and inf loud

THE ALAMANCE GLEANER.
cretly, "and my most absorbing eifort !
to L.d»her was unavailing. In order
to place me first in the musical world '
which she thought my all—she had
effaced herself completely. And —"
the musician's eyes, filled with re
morseful tears, met those of his wife—
"and broke my heart," he finished.
She met the townspeople gracefully,
the gii'tei. wife of the famous musi
cian.
"Such a charming pair!" the resi
dents said. "No doubt it was Mr.
Rolf's wish that his wife remain un
known among us until he himself
might present her,"
:'.WS OF COMSA,.iJG DISEAC,u j
international Health • Authority Ex- |
plains tho Two Main Principle* 1
of Preventive Medicine.
Doctor Elmendorf of the inter;- -
tlona' 'a Ith board, writing in Hygeia,
says chut "preventive medicine is I
based largely on two principles. The
first, and by far the most importan'
principle from a genera! standpoint is ,
that of breaking the life cycle of a j
disease at its most eas' y accessible
point and so climina'ng the disease.
' The sec ' ' is the principle of pro
tecting man uy vaccination or Immu
nization, and so preventing the onset
of the disease, 'the first tends to blot i
iut the malady. The second helps in I
the blotting out, but particularly bene- '
fits (lividuals by protection.
Yellow fever will serve as an exam- |
pie of both these ../pes of attack. The j
life cycle of the yellow fever germ
consists of a period of development In
the mosquito, aed«s caiopus, next,
transmission to a human host, then a
period of development In this iiost, and !
finally infection of another mosquito.
The first principle of prevention lias
been applied by exterminating and pre
venting tha breeding of these mos
quitoes. Cuba, Panama, Guayaquil,
and the Central American republics of
Guatemala, Salvador, Nicrragua and
Costa Itiea have all been freed of the 1
infection by the vigorous application j
of this method.
Another means In the prevention of
tills disease is that of rendering the
Individual immune by vaccination,
which lias been applied successfully in
pre.enting the local spread of an epi
demic. Tills Itst method, however,
must necessarily be local and Is only
a helpful adjunct.
Fur Raising Increasing.
Important progress has been made
in investigations perta-ning to the
rearing of wild fur-bearing animals
in captivity. Fur farms ure reported
from 25 states where foxes, skunks,
raccoons, minks, opossums, martens, |
muskrats, squirrels and beavers are
raised. It is estimated that 500
ranchers are raising silver foxes in t ie !
United States, that they have between j
12,00(1 and 15,000 foxes lp captivity,
and that the value of the Investment
is about $8,000,000. The discovery of
the fact that martens breed the last of
July and in August »hus solved the
problem which has heretofore prevent
ed the successful rearing of these ani
lortia in captivity and has opened up ,
an Important field to the fur farmer.— j

HOW OLD AGE CAM FIE EVADED
Keep Insisting That You Are Young,
*nd Resist the Suggestion*
j of Others.
Doc Hrnneberry hss Just 1 roven the
excellent of a lo"g-he! theory. For
as long as T can renu-.aoer One has
ii ted that age can be evaded, within
limits. Nothing, he says, will grow
hair on a bald head. But if the owner
of the hairless cflput will say to him
self: ,
"I am not old. I will not be old. I
shall remain a IUC >f hale middle
age—"
He will not know he hai over
ripened until the day the reaper gets
him with his hook, says a writer In
the Kansas City Star. I>oc points out
that not one man in a million realizes
he Is old until his younger friends be
gin to exhibit needless consideration
fi 4' him. *|
"It is a shock for any man waen
he first hears himself referred to as
the old man.' -Hut if he is nut a per
. on of sturdy char: ;ter he begins
to act old. lie has not been able to
re.«i"t the power of suggestion."
Doc has been preaching and acting
this for years. But last week his fa- i
ther dug himself out of the living
groove he has been occupying for
years and came to the city to visit (113 ,
son. Doc says the old fool is a viru- I
lent proof of the truth of his theory
of the essential youthfulness of man. j
lie rolled forty years off his shoulders
the first time he heard his son's ideas
about being young.
"I'm going to send for mother," said
Doc. "Young or old, she always had j
his number."
JAPANESE TAKE REAR SEATS

Apology.

man than thou be bidden. But go and |

whosoever exalteth himself shall be !
abased; and he that liumbleth himself
shall be exalted."
A person who is forced to make a ;
way fon himself th-otigh a crowd or

between a crouch and a bow, expres- !
slve of supreme humility, murmuring !

was reminded of this fact by a nr.t.i-e
