HIS WIFE'S chum: He had been married a year and still found that marital haDDiness ii ; was really a tangling thing; not the fanciful vaporiDga of poetic enthus iasts. He was able to crumble in the dust the highest and strongest arguments brought forward bv . cynical bachelors and marriage is a failure. But yfct, with all his devo tion, he was able to appreciate a pretty woman. He kept his appre ciation to himself. In a year's time he had learned many valuable truths of whose existence he had not even dreaived before. One of these was that it was far better for a married man to keep some things to himself and to observe a religious silence on others. One subject upon which te kept a religious silence was that of praising pretty women in his wife's hearing. .When he had married her he thought his wife the most beautiful creature which the wildest dreams of a lover's fancy could conjure up, but after a year's constant association with her he had been forced to acknowledge to him self that there were others as pretty and at last had decided that some were even prettier, but that none was better or sweeter he never doubted. One morning at' breakfast as his wife, clad in a bewitching gown, was pouring the ccffee the smart, white aproned maid came in with the mail, and amid the pile of letters was one which his wife siezed eagerly and tore open with the unconvential aid of the butter knife. "Oh. Jack," she said joyfully as he read on with to get one up and no one offered to help me." , . - - "Have you ever been out this way before?" he asked. ' - "Oh, yes. I used to live in Boston or about here." ' " . . "Yes, indeed, I know er that is. I I do not know any one nQw Everybody has moved away." "Now, what the dickens made her like that?" thought Jack as the young lady suddenly became intecsly inter ested in the passing landscape. She turned back again after a time, -but evidently had great difficulty in meeting her . companion's . eyes. Every reference to Boston or its vicinity was discouraged with re strained - confusion. Jack made some tactful attempts at getting her name, but every one was foiled. Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report 1ft "She's a bright-gtrlTIS Maude is coming !

"She was my chum when you came to see me before we were married- She used to plague us by coming in when we wanted to be alone. Don't you remember?" Jack had a dim recollection of , a small girl who used to make herself too confoundedly numerous," Jack had once said in a moment of exas peration, but her face he could not call to mind. So he nodded ' and asked when she was coming. "Tonight, she says. She does not mention the train. There are two you know. I suppose she will take the 10: 35 from Boston, where she wants to do some ' shopping. I am so glad she is coming. We can have such fun talking over old times, and. oh, lots of things." Every afternoon at 5: 30 the train started back from the big, smoky, noisy, B. and A, station, and every afternoon at 5: 20 Jack enterred the the last car with his grip and his paper. In the middle of the week the train was seldom crowded, and often Jack found himself entirely alone for most of his journey. This happened to be one of the days, and Jack stretched himself out comfort ably and began to read the paper The main line pulled out in a slow and dignified manner. Jack saw a flash of white fly by the window, and the next moment a charming young woman, with dark brown hair, laugh ing browe eyes and a jaunty blue and white shirt waist and a red necktie, stood in the door, a vision of summer personified. She was so extremely pretty that Jack could not help look ing at her again as - she came down tbe isle. She caught his eye, a half surprised expression flashed . over her face, she paused uncertainly and then deliberately at down directly opposite Jack. She arranged her blue skirt daintily, looked out of the window and then at Jack, who found himself stealing a surreptitious gjance at her from the edge of the paper which he was pretending to read The same little comedy was gone through with again, and this time she smiled slightly, but encouraging ly, and Jack smiled back.' Nay, do not frown. What would you have done under the same circumstances, A stern and moral benedicts of a year's standing? . At any rate. Jack smiled, and then with malice aforethought, as he very well knew, this pretty girl began to struggle ineffectually to. raise the car window. Now, this has been the accepted prelude to the car flirtations since the Invention of railroads, and there is good ground for thinking that it r ay be the reason why car windows always stick. As soon as Jack saw her at temps he gallantly sprang up and offered i to help her. With a pharmiog,. oonfusioi she ac oepted, and after a few vicious tugs the window came op, and JacK- sat down 'jeside the charming joung woman. He was so exhausted he had to. . - -' "Oh, thank yoa so ; much." . said she. It is so hard to get these windows -up. -As I was coming through the main line I tried so hard himself, "but what makes her want I to giggje all the time?" The tram approached Alton Centre and the young lady made prepara tions to leave the train, and while it pulled intoJhe station Jack carried her hag to the door and wished her a goodby. She turned as if to speak to him and then ran down the steps. "She is a mighty pretty, girl," mused Jpck as he resumed his seat i "But what- wonder if I'd belter say anytaing to Edith about it. No, I won't no need of it." And he be gan to read his paper. His wife met him at the gate and her face wore look of disappoint ment. Maude is not coming today, Jack," she said. "She wrote me she was going to stop off to see a .friend anil ccme on tomorrow on the after noon train. Isn't it mean, after all my preparations too?" Jack thought it was, and the sub ject dropped. In the ev2ning they went over to the Van Plays' to play whist, and Edith and Mr. Van Pluys beat Jack and Mrs Van Pluys, much :'Er my dear it means I the facUs oh, dash it -I I saw her yesterday in the car. That is what, it means." And Jack blurted out in a v6ic.e which was a combination of a groan and a shout. ' " - l'Met her in the car?" Well. I seei;,:Wife nojfeason why you should be so con Jo me very haughty. Jack said nothing. He was swear ing he was swearing to himself. Maude saw that it had gone far enough, and that it was time for her to speak. DONALD'S LAST BET. The Silver Dollar He Found on the Trail Brought Him Luek at Last, but it Came too Late to be of Benefit Either to-Himself or hi a Starvinfl -Atbigri nese Tommie's gambling pavilion, in the Creek Indian country, a few weeks ago. The place was filled with men in all stations of border life, who were trying to carve out a fortune through the high card. "Come Edith," slie said, "I'll con-. Hardly any one noticed the entrance fess. When I entered the car yes-1 of a seedy, broken down man, who terday afternoon, I reconized your; took a seat at the faro table and to Edith's delight and Jack's chagrin. for if there was one thing on which Jack prided himself it was his whist and his famous combination play of the king second hand .which had never failed of its object, but did fail signally that night. For some unaccountable reason the next day did not pass as well for Jack in the city. Everything seemed to go wrong. husband at once and was going to speak to him, but I saw that he did not recouize me. I well, I do not know why I did it. but you know icy fault is liking fun and practical jokes and all that, and I just thought that it would be fuu to play a trick on him and flirt with him and then tell you all about it. He kindlv helped me" here she smiled at Jack, who cursed mentally "to raise the window, and then he talked very nicely to me. And I nearly died with laughing and having to keep it -to myself. When I loft the train at Alton, I intended to tell him all about it. but the thought of seeing the expression on .his face when he met me today kept me from it. That's all, Edith. It was just one of my awful practical jokes. Forgive me, dear, but really I could not help it." Jack had straightened up when she began her tale, and when she had finished added emphatically: You by George,' that's all, Edith. I was going to tell you all about it tonight myself." Edith looked from one to the other doubtfully, and when she thought of His typewriter spoiled the unutterable woe depicted upon two briefs when they were almost done, and he dropped his big ink stand and spilled all the ink on the pretty rug which he and . Edith had selected to make to make the office look mgre chery. When it came time for him to go to the station, he was glad " and sank within his ac customed teat with a sigh of relief. He remembered the affair of the day before and wished that he had told Edith and compromised with himself by deciding to tell her when he reached home. The monotonous rattle of clicking cars jarred upon him, and he could not read. When the train stopped at West Alton, his temper hadnot improved materially, and when he ran into a fat man's pardon, although he knew that it was his own fault, but muttered savagely something about people not looking where they were go ing. Edith did not meet him at the gate as usual, and that irritated him more. As he neared the little porch he heard the sound of animated voices. ; One was Edith's. The other sounded strangely familiar. Where he had heard it? He racked his brain, but could not determine. As he opened the door to the . coolt darkened sitting room Edith met him. ; - '" "Maude has come, Jack," she said and dragged' him into the room where, seated on the divn with the big cushions, was a white form which- his eyes, unaccustomed o the dim ness of the room, could not make out, , ,,- .:- . . .. - "Maude, '" this is ray husband. Jack' said Edith. "You reme mber Jack?"1 "' ' ' I believe that we havt had the pleasure of meeting more recently, Mr. Strong,", said Maude, with roguish smile. , .. . 'Er ah, yes, yes, of course," he managed to gasp. "Delighted" And he sank down upon the nearest chair with the perspiration standing out upon his ? forehead. . ' His . wife stood like a statue of ice and looked fronf Made, who was smilingly self posessed, to Jack, who looked likev a melting molasses candy image T dn not onite nnderstand." she began. Maude said nothing, byt kept her calm, roguish smile. Edith turned to Jack and almost caught him , in the act of making wild "appealing irpat.nre toward Maude. He wilted to- ' ' further. ' John," said Edith and when she ta .Tnhn" nh meant what she said, and' Jack knew it. what does this mean?" , . the face of poor Jack and his bad quarter of an hour her sense of humor came to her, and she was forced to smile and was joined by Maude, who had had great difficulty keeping her face straight for the last 15 minutes, and by Jack, upom whom the smile of Edith had produced a reaction. They all laughed loudly and long, and Edith kissed Maude, and then everybody went into one of those delightful little dinners for which the Strongs are so justly famous. But that night, after Maude had gone to her room and Jack was smoking his last pipe, Edith looked, up from her book and gazed at JackJ long and earnestly. He met her gaze with a long smile. "Jack, Maude is a dear girl, isn't she?" 'Why, yes, of course she is." She's an old friend of mine, too, and I think a great deal of her. She and I went to school together. " She was always so jolly and so fond of practical jokes and that sort of things vou-tnow." Shi paused and fingered the cover of her book. She was deep iu thought. "Jack don't you think that people who are that way carry things a little too far. sometimes?" And Jack smiled. Rochester Post Express. The Discovery saved. His Life Mr. G.

He had the unmis takable look of a man who had been' pushed to the wall and was staking his last cent. An old sombrero shaded eyes that were underlaid with heavy, dark rings, and the gambler dropped into his seat as thougli his body had been weighted with lead. He threw a silver dollar on the high card, slouched his hat down over his eyes and became motionless. The high card won, and the dealer paid the bet, pushing the money over toward the player. He let it remain, and the high card continued to win until a big pile of money lay in a heap before, the forelon looking stranger. Still the player never moved. The deal went steadily on, an,d still the high card won. '"Shake that fool up," swore the dealer at last. A half breed Indian first shook the player and then pulled off his hat The face of a dying man greeted his close scrutiny. The dealer reached for the heap of money, and a dozen pistols were drawn upon the instant. . - " He's as good as dead,"eaid Faro Dick, the dealer. "Money won't do him any good, and no one knows him." "1 do, said Cherokee cam an Indian police officer. "'His name is Mike Donald, and fhey call him Unlucky Mike, the Mover, on the jorder. His wife and family are camped down on a creek near here, and I have heard today they were literally starving." In ten minutes Donald was dead. Apoplexy had killed him. At once a half dozen willing hands bundled the winnings of the corpse into handkerchief and started to the wife's camp, to see the widow and turnthe-iaQney over to her. One or twj6 stopped to buy some provisions for the distressed ones. They found the forlorn little camp without much trouble. TJ.ulucky Mike's wife was there, but she was dead. She had died of starvation and exposure. The rough bordermen many of them professional gamblers and killers, perhaps more of them express robbers were horror stricken. They brought the husband to' the creek and buried the two together in one grave, a converted Cheroke In dian preaching the funeral sermon. Eour little children, hungry, dirty and cold, were taken in charge by a committee, the money won in the faro bank by their dead father was placed to their credit, and they are how being furnished with good homes. Mike Donald was a noted border character. Six or eight years ago he fc with his wife. They had a good team of horses and; a new wagon. Whenever a new countrv was opened to settle ment, they were there, ready to make the run to secure a home. Down in No Man's Laud, in 1883, Mike be came a squatter sheriff near Beaver City. The United States did:- hot recognize that there was such a cptf a try as No Man's Land, and - the set tlers organized themselves into a governsient of their " own. They selected tbeir sheriffs, judges and other officers. Outlaws from all oat west flocked in, and soon -No -Man's Laud became a mundaneparadise. -- While Mike Jonald was sherilf he killed Whiskey Diek at Beer City over a game of cards, and from that to tbe time of his death he wa3 un fortunate. : Hw stock died, and he was never able to keep a good - team of horses. - Either they were stolen of disease carried them ofE. He left No Man s Land and traveled ; up : to Kansas. ' An nneiisy demon appeared Mike , the Mover because ; he was wer long at one place.- He was one of an army of people who had been flitting about over the border in cov ered wagons for years past, ' " " A year or two t, ago, when old Whil wind's band of Cheyennes" killed several settlers and Were on the war path, unlucky Mike was near at hand and was arrested by the Fed, eral officers 'charged with selling the Indian "fire water"' and inciting them to rebellion. It took a month to clear himself of these charges, and by that time his family had wand ered away and were lost to him. ' ' ? On foot he trailed them over the Indian country. Once he got track of . the wagon it was no;"- trouble to follow " its meanderings. Any one hoJiadjfw8eea. it would -not - for get it The wheels ' were, held to gether with wire and rope wrapping, the bed was in splinters, and the old canvas top was a . mass of shapeless ribbons; ; . By the supersticious the man be came isolated .from the humanity. When he found his family, down upon the banks of the Cimarron Eiver, they .were almost starved to death. Together thev' continnpd in wander over the wild, country like a rudderless ship at sea., Mike had three old crow bait horses when . he first went into his last oamp, but it is eaid he killed one of - the animals or food. On the day of his death he fou nd a sil ver- dollar on a trail eading to a town . near by. With this money he determined to tempt Dame Fortune for the last time. It was this dollar that he risked at Japanese Tommie's tent. His little daughter Nellie told the committee of the finding of this dol- ar and her father starting to town after something to eat. Once upon a time Mike had been a gambler in a mild way, and doubtless when he was passing the gambling house his desire for play drew him in. The wife died soon'after he left the little camp, and it probable that con sumption had something to do with her death.
