Great efforts are made to induce the
legislature to substitute Georgia marble
for oolitic limestone from Indiana in
building the new capitol. The contract
has been made; the material has been
engaged, much of it brought on and paid
for; no bid for using Georgia marble
oame within the limits of the appropria
tion; the legislature has not provided for
raising mere revenue, and many say that
not a cent of the money brought in by
tbo l»ws ean lie use 1 to nav for
work done on the capitol, because it is
all needed for other purposes, and the
act says the expenses shall be paid out of
any surplus; prudence then seems to dic

fited thereby. In stnteplide the benefit is

HER DIAMOND EARRINGS.
There they were, to be sure! sparkling
like twin stars, as enveloped in seal she
tripped down the s'eps and turned her
head a moment in passing by. Mrs.
Mayrell dropped the Holland window
shade from behind which she had beeu
reconnoitering, and turned away with a
groan. To live in the basement "flat”
was bad enough. To have tapestry Brus
sels carpets when Mrs. Kinsley had mo
quet was worse, but have only coral ear
rings when the tenant of cho floor above
displayed diamonds was the latest and
most cruel blow of fate.
A latch-key turned in the street-door.
There was a step in the passage without.
Will’s cheery voice rang out, “Dora,
dear!”
And then in a minute —“Why, what’s
up? Are you ill?”
For bis wife of a year lifted her head
from the sofa-cushion and turned towards
him a pair of suspiciously ri d eyes.
“No-ol” gulping down the sob that
would rise; “but —b-ut she sgot them!"
Poor, big. good-natured mystified Wil|
just stood and stared.
“I saw thorn I”
“You did, eh? ’
“Ye-ye.s!"
“And now,” deliberately, “will you be
good enough to tell me who is ‘she’ and
what she ‘got?’ ”
Dora swallowed another invisible pill,
as she rose.
“I mean Mrs. Kinsley. She has got
diamond earrings.”
Will burst into a boyish laugh; then,
seeing it was a very serious mutter with
his wife, sympathetically sobered up.
“Come, now, Dora; be sensible, like a
good little girl. You don't mean to say
you’d cry for a pair of earrings!”
Mrs. Mayrell's pretty olive face bright
ened not at all at the pleasant raillery.
“Much good it will do me!” she de
clared sullenly, and intently resardful of
the toe of her slipper. Will edged over
io the sofa, sat down beside her, stole an
arm around her.
“Dora I”
“Well?”
“You don’t look half so pretty when
you’re cross.”
Silence.
Will began to ask himself if bo hadn’t
made a tremendous mistake about twelve
mouths ago. Then he bani-hed the
thought as disloyal. She was a little
selfish, perhaps vain, at times discontent
ed, but he loved her very dearly, and no
other girl would have suited him halt so
well.
“Dora, pet," ho said, gravely, “you'd
have diamonds if I could give them to
you. indeed you would, dear. But y>u
know I’ve got to figure pret'y closely to
make ends meet, now that hard times
are upon us. You know that?"
She nodded.
But when halt an hour later he went
back to the office he left behind him a
still very dejected little lady.
Ho wis not quite so gay as usual that
afternoon, lie diln't joke so audacious
ly with the boys nor break now and then
into a whistle. The man who hail the
desk next to liitu observed (ho change.
“What’s the racket Mayrell?”
Will started.
"Oh, nothing!” and lie laughed and
shrugged his shoulders.
“That's a lie,"returned Andrews, with j
calm directness and the familiarity born
of long friendship. “Ou with it!”
Will turned to him.
“You’ve helped me out of a good many
tight places, I admit, but you can’t do it
ibis time.”
Andrews, sandy-haired and chubby
faced little Scotchman, cocked bis head
on one side like an inquisitive sparrow.
“Maybe not, but try me.”
Will laughed with an air of embarass
ment.
“It seems a foolish thing to worry so
about,” apologetically. "Will, as you
must know, here's the case in a nutshell.
Dora wants diamond earrings, and 1
could quite as easily purchase for her the
World's fair and the Great Eastern
thrown in. Now you know."
Andrews rubbed his chin and nodded.
“Yes, I know,' dryly. “1 know women,
at least I know one woman, and I guess I
they are aro all pretty much alike. I'm I
engaged."
‘"Ho!” cried Will.
“Fact. Got to got rich first. Domes-I
tic happiness indefinitely postponed.
Just bought the ring," fumbling in his
vest pocket. “You may look at it and
get an idea for your wife.’s solitaries.”
"Dcn’t joke Dan. I’m a little sore on
the subject of my poverty.”
“I am not joking," replied Dan, snap
ping a spring with bis finger; “what do j
you think of that?" And he banded
him a little blue velvet case. Will's eyes
widened.
’ Phew! how did you manage that on |
seventy-five a month. It's a beauty.”
Andrews chuckled.
“You like it? '
“1 should say. How would stones like
that do for earrings?’’
“O, let up Dan. Where’s the use of
talking about it! That’s a carat isn’t it? ’
“Riirht you are. But you can get the
same if you wish.”
“O. some installment scheme, I sup-'
pose?"
Andrews restored the ring to its case
and the case to his pocket.
“Not exactly.”
And he forthwith proceed to explain.
That night Mayrell said to his wife;
“I'll try and manage it, Dot."
"What? Not the earrings?”
“Yes.”
“O, you darling!”
And the very next day he brought
I them up.
Didn’t they sparkle on their bed of
, snowy velvet, though? And weren’t ,
they beauties? Actually larger than Mrs.
Kinsley’s too.
“I’m glad you like them, Dora.”
“Line them?”
And her eyes were brighter than the
gems.
And maybe she didn't rejoice iu them
and keep them wrapped in chamois skin
when not in use. And perhaps she did
not return Mrs. Kinsley’s visit. If you
think she wore a poke bonnet ora veil
you’re mistaken.
And for one whole month home was a
paradise of serenity for Will Mayrell.
But one day, going out in a hurry, Dora
hastily put in her earrings. She could
not have fastened them securely, for on
her return she found herself minus one.
Os her grief, distraction, who could
write? Straight-way down-town went she
aed advertised in all the dailies. But did
not give her real name and address. She
must not let Will know till it had been
recovered. He would feel so badly about
it. No, no, she would conceal the fact
of her loss from him till she could tell
him of her repossession in the same
breath. She offered sls reward, and
came hemo tagged and heartsick. But
day by day passed and never a word came
there of the mi-sing jewel. She stayed
at the bouse altogether now. She had
no heart for shopping or calls.
Her hope of ever recovering her pre
cious earrings grew fainter daily. She
could not bear to look at the poor lonely
one laid so carefully away.
Going out to the theatre with Will one
eve ing lie sa l suddenly:
“Why, Dora, you have not got your
earrings in. Are you tired of them al
ready? ’
“0, no!” she explained, with a fever
ish laugh, “but I can’t wait for them.
Come, I do bate to be late.”
And Will, having read the oft repeated
advertisement and noticing the unadorn
ed pink cars, bad come to his own conclu
sion. But he only smiled and was silen’
—except for this one reference to divert
»US| inion—like the wise fell >w he was.
And when two weeks had passed and
doubt had begun to settle into despair,
little Mrs. Mayrell began to wonder i I she
ciuld l<y an economical strain replace the
lost trinket unknown to Will. She might
have managed it if they bad not been
such brilliant stones, and so large, too.
They must be worth an enormous sum!
How Will had manured to get them in
the first place rather puzzled and fright
ened her when she would let her.-elf
think, but then Will always did things on
a grand scale when he made gifts at all.
They must be worth three hundred at
least. Sevi ral had valued them at that
none less. She would take the one in
her dressing case down to Mackin, the
chief jeweler, tell him of her loss, and
learn from him the lowest sum at which
ii o mid f e replaced.
Anil this the very next day she did.
Mr. Mat kin examined the earring as
she faltering inquited what one exactly
like it would be worth.
“ I’wo fifty madam.”
Ab. even more than she thought.
“Two hundred and silty! That is a
great deal!” she murmured.
Uh I nked at her blankly. “Two dol
lars and filly cents, madam. We don’t
keep such stones, but se can have your
1 missing earring replaced for that sum.”
And then, observing her pallor and di
vining the truth, ho kindly and politely
turned his back on her.
Over the secne which followed at home
! turn low the lights, ring down the cur
tain.
But raise it again for a moment.
It is two weeks since Mrs. Will May
rell met her husband with a face which
told him Ins scheme had found him out.
He cornea in now aud hands her a pa
per, pointing out a paragraph as ho does
so, ami this is what she leads:

HAPPY MARRIAGE, HAPPY HOME.
First, it is a mistake for young people
to marry simply for beauty. Beauty is
often only “kin deep, and serves as a ve
neering to cover up a deformed heart and
soul. Some of the most homely persons
we have met are inwardly the most beau
tiful. Such was Annie Steele, the tender
poetess of England. Such was Watts, the
great poet, of whom a lady said that she
admired the jewel but abhorred the cask
et. Seek, then, for a partner in life who
possesses the inner beauties of virtue,
truth, and sincere affection. These will
cause the countenance to be all radiant,
not with cosmetics, but with that which
will abide amid the stern realities of life.
It is a mistake to marry simply for so
cial position. This marrying surroundings
rather than a partner is the bane of mar
ried life. A young man who marries from
so base a motive simply adds one to the
family, but that one is often a consum
mate fool, and a cat-and d.og life is gener
ally the consequance. Those who marry
simply external surroundings, deserve
nothing better than a selfish, calculating,
designing woman, who will shoot missiles
of srrrow into their sou's all through life.
Motives of wealth too often operate in
the ‘election of life-partners. This is the
ease in respect to both sexes. "Did she
matry well?" is very often asked; that is,
“Did she marry a long, full purse?'' not
“Did she marry an honest, industrious,
respectable man?" There are no terms
strong enough to express the contempt
due to any two-L’gged creature who, not
having brains enough to make money,
will go to work with cool deliberation to
marry it. This having one eye on a wo
man, and the other on her purse, is base
hypocrisy. Themistocles said he would
rat her marry his daughter to a man with
out money than to money without a man.
She Had Confidence.
Mrs. 11. C. Harshbarger, Manor Hill,
Huntingdon County, Pa., writes- “Dr.S.
B. Hartman & Co., Columbus, O.: I
have been afflicted for three years.caused
hv over-work too soon alter confinement.
Mv kidneys became seriously affected;
could not retain mv urine day nor night.
It was high colored, tliick and bloody.
Mv monthlies had left altogether for four
teen months, during which time I was
confined to my bed 141th a beating in right
ovaries. The discharge from the womb
was so offensive no one could stay in the
room. The urine continued bloody, with
pain in voiding it. and when in bed would
pass from me in mv sleep. I have had
three d >etor, attending me regularly,one
for four months, one of the others one
whole summer, and the third all winter.
We ha 1 two others in consultation with
them, and used twenty bottles of differ
ent kinds of patent medicines, all to no
good. I then got a bottle of Pf.ri'NA,
and before I had three-fourths of the bot
tle taken I quit wetting the bed and could
retain the urine sufficient to attend church,
which I had not done for three years,
and my monthlies came back as natural
as ever; indeed, I considered myself a
well woman again. Since that time I have
bad pneumonia. Mv confidence in I’k
ri'N A «as so great that I did nut send for
u doctor. I followed the directions in
your “Ills of Life” and am over it, as well
as can be expected of one so delicate as I
have been. Others in my neighborhood
had the same disease, an d among them
were strong men, and had the best physi
cians, and yet rbed, while I sailed through
in safely on Peruna an I Manamn. I
sincerely believe, and would saytoall the
afflicted in the wide world, that Puri n a
and Manai.in are the only two medicines
that any one needs in any disease, if used
as directed in your book entitled “The Ills
of Life.”
J. E. Fleming, publisher of the New
Dominion, Morgantown, W.Va. writes:
“ Some m snths since. I received :ome of
your m -divine in exchange lor advertis
ing. My wife his taken live nittlesof it,
and has derived great benefit from it."
Mr. M C. Pershing, Bradenville, Pa.,
writes: “ Mv wife has been using Peru
NA for some time for weak lungs and liv
er and kidney coinplaint, and thinks it is
doing her great good. His used only one
bottle as yet. Please send your book on
the ‘llls of Life,’ as wc can't get any from
our druggist.”
Mr. John Dennv, Mt. Vernon, 0.,
writes : “ We have a large sale in Pa-
RVNA. It gives satisfaction.”
I’E-RU-NA is sold by nil druggists.
Price $! per bottle, fix bottles $5. If
you cannot get it tr im your iru.’gi-t, we
wid sen 1 it on reoiipt of regular price.
We prefer you buy it from your druegitt.
