I'p until the year 1754 couples hi England experienced little difficulty in o-pHino- married, either with orsl without the consent pi parents or guardians. Bat in that year an uct abolishing clandestine marriages came into force and after that date runaway couples were forced to seek the hosptaltty of a country where it sufficed lor them to de clare their wish to marry in the presence of witnesses. It was nat ural that they should select the nearest arM most accessible point for the consumation of the conjugal knot and Gretna Green, a small vil lage in Dumfriesshire, Scotland, three-quarters of a mile from tne river Sark, which is the dividing line between England and Scotland, became notorious as the resort of eloping couples who had failed to ltain the consent Of parents or guardians to their union. At Gretna Green the ceremony was usually performed by the black smith hut the toll-keeper, ferryman, or in fact any person might officiate tnd the toll house, the inn, or Gretna Hall was the scene ol many such weddings.

Judging from the faint smile on her thin lips she was glad of it. She hatl never been a robust woman, bail been in a decline for a year and now the end had come. An early marriage had brought her many children; poverty added its burden to her lot of incessant care and hanl work. She had been a very fair woman with soft, pale hair and oale blue eyes, never very far from tears. Her manner had been very gentle, even apologetic, and her submissiveness pained one like the suhmissiveness of K circus dog scourged through its tricks. At last she was out of it all, lying very straight and still in her small room. rue only sound that broke the silence was the sobbing of her children. Two life-long friends lingered to draw the white sheet over the whiter face and to place between the wasted fingers a white jasmine flower. Then they sought to speak a few' words of sympathy to the bereaved husband. They found him on the .piazza wrapped in gloom. Mr. Dobbins was a small man with a solemn and stately mien, his hair was jet black, so were his eyes, his nose jutted forward like a sharp boulder from the face of a granite crag and the corners of his mouth turned down like the points of a horse shoe. A grim, unsmiling man was Mr. Dobbins, especially if all about him were joyous and gay; now he appeared sadder than the saddest. The two ladies approached him with words of consolation and of appreciation of the many virtues of his dead wife; they spoke of her kindness, her true friendliness, the sweetness of her character and her liefer failing industry. "Yes," replied the bereft one, "An nie was a good woman, 1 suppose, but she had her faults and nobody knew them, better than I did. To he sure she was never a gadabout, she never belonged to. these clubs and societies, she never read these novels and magazines, she never was no hand to run around the neighborhood gossipping. She went to ehurch and souietiomcs ' to prayer meeting, she read her Bible, she stayed at home and cooked and washed and ironed and tended to her children. To be sure she never was much of a cook; I hatl to cook the steak and measure out the cof fee and I always thought it took her longer to got out a week's wash than anybody I ever saw. It was amazing the wood site burnt up a ironing, just Ur.- six children and me. She was rignt good to wait on our lame girl lutt I got a sprain m my back rigid how from haying to do all the lifting of the child. But she's gone now OimJ her faults lays between her and her Maker. Wrath ami indignation flashed from the eves of the small woman standing before fiirn as she respond ed. And she died of softening of the brain and a broken-heart." L. P. R Hooper, James 10.

Dodge Brothers BUSINESS SEDAN Exceptional interest has been aroused by the practical arrangement of the interior. The entire rear compartment furnishings seat, seat cushions, back cushions, seat frame, foot rest, carpet and all can be re moved from the car in a few moments. The front seat is then tilted forward, giving a gross clearance of twenty-two inches through the rear doors. In this way, a space of sixty-four cubic feet in the rear compartment is made available for loading. When the rear seat fixtures are back in place, the interior is complete and attrac tive in appearance. Its convertibility is not apparent to the eye. - Business men, farmers, salesmen, campers, tourists and everyone who has occasion, at times, to carry bulky articles or luggage, will readily appreciate the great utility of this construction.
