Mr. Vincent had some' twenty

yet, with blonde whiskers, a florid
complexion and the 'unmistakable

Mr. Vincent looked about him
as if preparing for a speedy re
treat, hastily swallowing the rem
nants of toast npon his plate and
rapidly stirring his coffee.
"I am sure," continued his wife,
"dear Uncle Edward would have
given me 20 lace shawls if I had
asked him."
Mr. Vincent nearly strangled
himself trying to drink coffee boil
ing hot
-Dear old man! the steady
whine kept on. "All my wishes
were gratified when I was at home.
Ah, me! We never appreciate our
comforts when we have them."
"Humph!" growled Mr. Vincent.
- Juat to think that for a noa
sencial freak of girlish . indepen
dence I left my dear uncle, my
happy, happy home, and came
here to the city to teach school.
But for that " a heavy sigh com
pleted the sentence.
t "Bat for that you would never
have married me," said Mr. Vin
cent. "Don't leave the point out
of your Bpeech, my dear."-
Another sigh with a martyred
expression that was absolutely
perfect.
"There is $50," said the master
of the house, producing a cripp
new note. "Anybody would really
suppose I was made of money."
"Fifty dollars for a point lace

tempuously. "It wouldn't buy a

"Well," as thepocketbook closed
with a lesolute snap, "if you are

No other reply. The last swal
low of coffee was hastily taken,
Mr. V incent rose from the table.
took up his hat and bent over his
wife for a kiss.
"My Uncle Edward!" she sighed,
with an evident intention of again
summing up the virtues of that
relative, when she was cut short
by a quick step across the room,
a door viciously banged and the
echo of the words :

took up the $50 bill, folded it de
liberately, put it in the pocket of
her dainty wrapper, and ringing
the bell to have the table cleared,
sauntered slowly to her own room.
A most luxurous room it was,
richly furnished, with appoint
ments of rare value in exquisite
taste. Jennie, the lady's maid,
was hanging up in a well-filled
wardrobe a maize-colored satin,
part ot a Dan attire lor a coming
watering-place sojourn, and upon
a large table was heaped other
new finery to fill the Saratoga
trunks a few weeks later. On every
side were the proofs of wealth
spent freely, and the little figure
reflected in the long mirror was
faultlessly and expensively attired.
But there was growing habitual
to the pretty face that had raised
Almira Hodges- public school
teacher, to the place of Almira
Vincent, petted wife of the mer
chant prince, an expression of dis
content had bade fair to mar much
of it3 beauty. . Free from all care,
childless, indulged in eyery whim,
tne young wile baa made many
friends in fashionable circles and
had gathered up many of the so
cial follies that were new to her.
Country-bred, she was yet refined
in taste and possessed a ready tact
that coyered m ny deficiencies of
education in the . requirements of
polite society. The very con
sciousness of such defiency made
her more quick to catch some of

.Ldwcd had t ken her wherever
she wanted so. The constant re
frain was:
"How foolish I was ever to
leave my Uncle Edward."
About a week after the conser
vation above record, tbe possession
of a particular pair of diamond
ear-rings came under discussion
between Almira and and her hus
band. The fact that she had al
ready a more than sufficient stock
of jewelry weighed nothing with
the pretty, spoiled wife, and she
pounted and teased, brinein the
inevitable Uncle Edward to the
front in gallant style. "But for
once Gilbert Vincent was firm. He
had selected that very pair of ear
rings lor Almira 8 approaching
birthday, and he would not ba
coaxed into giving thera sooner.
uniting into uis omce alter tne
stormy interview he was surprised
to see a rongu looking man, in a
suit of homespun, sitting in hU
own chair and reading the morn
ing newspaper. He rose as Mr.
Vincent entered.
"Good morning." he said. "Be
you Mr. Vincent?"
"That is my name, sir.
"Married Miry Hodges ?"
"Yes, sir."
"I don't often come to York, but
bein as I was here. I thought I'd
like to see Miry, and had only
your office direction. Miry pretty
well?" ,
"My wife ia in good health!"
"Pretty good wife, eh?"
"Reallv, sir."
"I trained her well, I did. I
never believed in givin gals their
heads no more'n young colts.
Miry never had no finery when
she was to hum, an' she's a master
hand at farm work, Miry is. Never
had no laziness at the farm, for
we'd all to scratch hard for alivin.
But I reckon I drawed the reins a
leetle too tight for Miry, for she
run off, an' took to school teachin'
here in York. I reckon she aimed
the fast pair o' Bhoes she ever
wore, in the summer time here in
the city, an she never wore bet
ter'n kaliker down to the farm. So
Miry's married rich! Well, well!"
"And mav I inauire who von
are?"Jsaid Mr. Vincent, with labor
ed politeness.
"Me! I'm Miry's father's broth
er. The landsakes, ain't she never
told yott about her Uncle Ed'ard?"
Uncle . Edward! Gilbert Vin
cent fairly gasped. .
The model of indulgence, of
wealth, refinement, stood before
him. Like a flash of inspiration
an idea seized Gilbert Vincent.
Extending his hand cordially, he
said:
"You are" more than welcome,
sir! Do you make a long stay in
the city." .
"I must go bae'e this af ternooa,
leastwise start. It's nigh 2 day's
journey down to my place.
"Would you like to have Mrs.
Vincent pay you : a visit, return
with youl Of course, I should
pay expenses, but I am sure she
would enjoy a visit to her
home. '
a aon i know about that, was
the slow reply. "Of course, Miry's
tiler welcome, but she hated the
farm desperate bad when she was
there.. It's a shabby, poor place,
but I was a poor maaiui' ii was
the best I could give her. I reck

She was a Tery picture of ibdolent

so saying it asnaiis the Roman
Catholic doctrine, conscientiously
believed in by a large part of the
citixens of this SUte, that lie did
nothing of the sort, but that by his
teaching marriage Is a sacrament
Indissoluble except by death. On
one tide, therefore, the New York
law of divorce conflicts with the
teaching of Roman Catholicism, on
another with that of Protestantism,
hlcn st the Information sbon-
doned the doctrine of the sacra
mental character of marriage, and
held that under command of Christ
and the injunction of the Apostle
Paul, both adultery and malicious
desertion released the innocent
party from marriage bonds. The
Jews, too, are numerous la New
York. The Mosiao law allowed a
man to give his wife a ''bill of di-

but it gave liberty to "go and be

State to satisfy religious teaching
by any legislation on the subject.
the rMate can avoid the conflict
only by treating marriage as a
purely civil contract, leaving to
each Church to deal as a 'ain'
ith whatever It regards as as a
transgression of God a law.
It is noteworthy, as we hare
pointed out before, that England
ith its State Church, tolerates
adultery In the husband, but not
In the wife. It rives divorce to
the man only for rthat prime out
rage against the marriage relation,
though unquestionably no such
discrimination is recognized by the
teachings of Jesus or by the law
of morality. The committee makes
