John Rimington, that I wish to see." A Great Change. “This Is John Rimington," the warder said, civilly enough The question caused him no surprise, he was too well accus tomed to the change that prison works In a man s looks, to the leveling influence ••f prison dress and discipline, that speed ily brings into line the prince and the peasant. Rut to Rimington the question was a shock and an awakening. He realized now as he had hardly realized before, that he was in no way different in ap pearance from those other shaven clowns among whom his days were passed. "Yes. it is I. aunt," he said, and his vei y voice whs changed, the hesitating voice of one who seldom speaks Even more than the physical change in the man before her, this change of voice from the gay. pleasant tones she knew to a low-pitched servility hurt the woman staring yt him with wide eyes behind the bars of the (age “oh, Jack I dldn t know—l never guessed, " she said, faltenngiy.

Aft er keeping company with him for four years I found him out walking with anothe young lady whom I very much dislike, as I have heard several remarks about her charac ter that were not very nice.

I am in loxe with a girl two years my senior and have kept company with her for the last year and a half. i'p to the present time I have found her to be a very good friend, yet 1 suspect she does not love me. I have treated her as the best of lovers treat their dear ones, yet I do not see why tae love I have for her is not reciprocated. When leaving her after a night's enjoyment, she has a very peculiar way of bidding me.good-night. As she has several other fellow ac quaintances, I don't think they have any serious intentions with her at all. Evon at that. I -see her more often than these other fellows. In fact. I see her regularly two times a week. E. ('. R If she did not care for you she w ould not give you so much of her time. There is encouragement for you in that. I am of the opinion that in refrain ing from showing love for you she is a particularly sensible young woman It will be soon enqugh for her to show her love when you have told her of yours.

Mrs. ltsander john ap- PLETON, in her capacity os First Standard Bearer for the Equal Suffrage Party, never loses an opportunity to make an appeal for the cause of Equality and Justice. She sprinkles argument with her sea soning of meats and potatoes in her kitchen; she serves arguments with greetings in her parlor, and she psteses them over the counter to the butcher and the baker. She has found recently to her dis tress, that members of the Home Mis sionary society of her church are very lukewarm on the question of suffrage. This great lack of progression has ap pealed to her as strongly as the lack of funds to keep the church going. The ladies held a rummage sale, at which they sold things they didn't want to other sisters, who likewise didn't want them; they gave dinners and suppers and fairs and bazaars. They gave a concert, at w hich Day sey Mayme Appleton sang, "by re quest." her effort resulting in consid erable grumbling because she did not give the name of the person making the request, so that the audience might have known v here to place the blame.
