Only high-class materials used >n my work. While traveling on the continent I hail met Wlmhrop Sa.vies, nud we had been members of the same party traveling together In Italy, with a long stop at Lake Como. In Switzerland, and In France. Mr. Sa.vles singled me out among several other girls of our party, and so marked were bis atten tions that we were soon considered to belong to each other. The party broke apart in Paris, 1 go ing to London. My admirer followed me. lie had proposed to me while we were in Lucerne and had during our subsequent journeying together linpor tuned me to marry him. it was not a ease on m.v part wherein a girl feels that she has met her fate—that is. that the proposer is absolutely necessary to her happiness. Nevertheless 1 liked hltn well enough to consider his prop ositlou, and 1 was sensible of the fact that girls are liable to let desirable parties slip away from them till they have become old maids, when they are left out in the cold. Mr. Sa.vles was so persistent that 1 at last yielded, but so late that we had barely time to be married before we were obliged to endure a separation I was about to sail for home, while he was obliged to remain temporarily in England. Yielding to his solicitations. I consented to do what 1 afterward considered an unwise thing. 1 agreed to marry him before going aboard the ship, reserving our honeymoon till his return to America. Just before sailing i was handed a letter from an aunt of mine in Amer ica. Her husband was wealthy; they were getting old and had no children If I would agree to abide with them so long as they lived my uncle would leave mo all his property. Had 1 been desperately In love with the naan 1 had married I doubt if this offer would have had more than a passing effect on me. If m.v husband had accompanied me to America the inevitable, the association of marriage, would have brought the same result. But, receiving this offer immediately after parting with a nmn I had known but a few months, it caused regret. We see marriage on the surface. There are the happy pair, the wedding gifts, the shower of rice and old shoes The first month of wedlock is called the honeymoon and savors of sweet ness. What we do not see are the balk ings that may take place or certain regrets that may thrust themselves in the face of one or both of the happy pair up to the point where the knot is tied. Yet it is possible sueb may occur In the case of those who are destined to become absolutely necessary to each other I confess I should have put the mat ter out of m.v head. 1 was married, nnd that was all there was nbout it But I fancy, as I have already said, that I am not the only person who has just been married to wonder whether be or she has taken a wise or a foolish step. However, by the time I bad reached port I bad made up my mind to cease to think about the proposition I had received, but to write my aunt, telling her why I could not accept It. 1 had promised to write something every day to my husband and mail what I had written ou arrival. I wrote him of the offer I had received, nnd ou reading over what I had written it occurred to me that possibly what I had said might be interpreted to express regret that I bad lost the power to decide between bim and a prospective fortune, i would have rewritten this part of my letter, but could not very well get it. out from the rest Besides, the letter was all ready to mail, and so I dropped it in the post As soon as ( landed I wrote my aunt, who lived in the west, that I had been married abroad und. of course, could not accept her proposition. 1 received loving letters from my husband till about the time he should have receiv ed my epistle written ou the steamer. After that I heard nothing for several days, when 1 received a brief note from him stating that be bad been ill. but was now better. He would write again soon. A few days later I recelv ed a cablegram from a friend of bis that m.v husband was dead. I confess I was much shocked. Be sides, the message brought u revela tion to me. 1 learned that my affec tions had been more completely engag ed than I had supposed. I blamed myself for m.v regrets. I felt that If 1 could only have my husband buck again I would not exchange u prospec tive fortune for him nor even a fortune In baud. The cablegram had advised me to remain where 1 was and await a letter When the letter came I was Informed that my husband tind requested that I should not on nriv account return to England as a res'Uit of his death and that his body l>e burled abroad. He had very little property to leave and had—so i was Informed—some time be fore his marriage left what there was to a sister. This was entirely satisfac tory t<> me. My aunt and uncle, being Informed that I h:ul become h widow, renewed thetr propu-itinn to me. arid I went to live with them They were very kind tome, nnd 1 entered upon n style above what I had been accustomed to. My uncle made a will lu my favor, and 1 had before me the anticipation of ou Joying a fortune. Nevert holers my life was dull. They were old persons and had outlived most of tlielr Inti mate friends They were certainly not companionable for me. As to enjoying the society of per sons of my own age. I had very little opportunity to do so My aunt soon after 1 went to live with her became an Invalid nnd required my constant attention. Besides, my mint had uot for many years had anything to do with social affairs, ami 1 was not thrown into the "swim.” I had step pod into what front it distunee i tmd considered an enviable position, but was not satisfied. 1 had become a nurse, m.v pity to consist of a living nnd a fortune after my patient’s death, or, rather, after the death of two per sons, either one or both of whom might outlive me. And now that I had experience in this condition which had led me to re gret my marriage J turned longingly to what would have been my lot if my husband had lived. 1 pictured it little house that 1 would have made cozy and an Interest in husband and chil dren—an interest which is paramount to nil other Interests. 1 do not except those cases where the husband and wife quarrel or separate. The interest is there, but it Inis become, so to speak, diseased. I laid nil the comforts wealth could bring, but there was no soul In them. 1 lived In a splendid house, but there was no home in It lor me. 1 did nut meet my husband's sister, who inherited what little property lie left. She wrote me offering, inasmuch ns it was mine by right, to give it up to me, but 1 declined to accept 1L She was very sympathetic, nnd somehow through her letters I conceived a decid ed liking for her. 1 would have liked to see her, but she lived fit a distance, nnd neither could well go to the other She and 1 became regular correspond ents, and 1 conlidcd in her my Uissatis. faction at the life 1 led and my regrets that 1 could not have hud a home of m.v own, “be it ever so humble.” To this she replied that the (lay would come when l would be wealthy and 1 would then be satisfied that fate tmd kept me from marriage without adequate income and had given instead the power and comfort that money brings. But to this 1 replied that, hnv ing become familiar with wealth, it did not seem so much of a blessing ns those who saw it from a distance sup posed. I hud lived with my aunt three yean when siie died. Then my troubles be gun in earnest, for I laid the whole re sponsibility of bolstering up my uncle in his old age. A woman left desolate can accommodate herself to the new situation better thau a man. My uncle could not accommodate himself to get on without his life partner, i endured his misery with him for the greater part of a year, when 1 saw evidence that he was intending to marry again. A woman about half his nge had set her cup for him and was not long in securing him. My standing in dead men’s shoes tmd been u failure. 1 knew well enough that this new wife would so riously object even to sharing her hus band's inheritance with me, and 1 did not believe that, under the circum stances, we two women could get on together under the sume roof. This turned out us I expected. The lady soon made it plain to me that 1 was uot desirable and set my uncle against xue. What should 1 du'l I had noplace to go, und the means at my command were limited. My uncle was soon got under the thumb of his wife, und she would not even permit him to give me un allowance. 1 knew nothing about his destroying the will made in my fa vor, hut if Ida wife permitted it to re main she wus not the woman 1 sup posed she wus. In my distress I wrote to my sister- in-law, pouring my troubles out to her. She wrote uie a sympathetic letter, re minding me that 1 was still young—i wus twenty-four—and would likely marry. She suggested no pluu ror me. hut said she would write again soon Later 1 received another letter from her Inviting me to make her a visit We could then talk over what It was best for me to do und would doubtless hit upon some plan for uiy comfort. I determined to accept the Invitation. I found Mias Sa.vles living In modest comfort und took her Into uiy lieurf on sight us I hud through her letters She made me feel at home from the mo rnent 1 entered the house. She was older than my husband had been and seemed to have looked upon hltn more as a son than a brother. “1 have u surprise for you.” she said, “of such importance that 1 fear to give It to you without preparing you for It. You remember that you wrote Win tbrop while coming from England of the proposition of your aunt and unde to live with them and Inherit your un ele’s wealth In your letter you show ed regret that you had been married and must consequently decline tlielr proposition Winthrop—a very sensi tive man —was much hurt by your let ter and determined that he would not stand between you urn! the life you preferred. He"— "What did lie do?" 1 gasped. A door opened, und my husband en tered. It was some time before I could for give him for having through a friend sent word to me that he was dead He had often regretted having done so and had as often thought of reappearing to me lu tiie flesh, but my uucle's fur tune stood between us I was still young enough to build op a home with m.v beloved husband, and It Is and has peer: .more enjoyable, more '-acred for m.v experience lr. wait lug for dead men s spues ARMY CAMP WATER.

The Cassowary Has a Way of Its Own For Capturing Its Prey. Habits of tho cormorant and of our native fish Imwlc are generally known. Their methods of taking fish are very much like those of birds of prey, lint tiie cassowary fishes according to method of its own. A well known naturalist witnessed its operations on a river In the Island of New Britain. lie saw a cassowary come down u tiie water’s edge and stand for sotnt minutes apparently watching the wa ter carefully. It then stepped into the river where It was about three feet deep and, partially squatting down spread its wings out. submerging them the feathers being spread and milled. Tiie bird remained motionless und kept its eyes closed ns if la sleep. It remained In Ibis position for a quarter of nn hour, when, suddenly closing its wings and straightening its feathers, it stepped out on the hank. Hero shook itself several times, whereupon a quantity of small fishes fell out of its wings and from amid Its feathers These the bird Immediately picked u| and swallowed. The fishes had evidently mistaken the feathers for a kind of weed that grows in the water along the hanks of the river In this Island ami wide much resemble the feathers of the cus sowary. The smaller fishes hide i these weeds to avoid the larger one that prey on them.—St. Paul Pioneer Press. Camels In Warfare. Camels are a feature of warfare I the far east.

It Always Helps says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in writing of Iter experience witli Cardui, the woman’s tonic. She says further: “Before 1 began to use Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I thought the pain would kill me. J was hardly able to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles of Cardui, 1 began to feel like a new woman. I soon gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all. my housework, as well as run a big water mill. 1 wish every suffering woman would give The Woman’s Tonic a trial. I still use Cardui when I feel a little bad, and it always does me good.” Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness, tired, worn-out feelings, etc., arc sure signs of woman ly trouble.
