nn Invnrlable rule? Tho rule Is that

Thin is moro ensy of explanation than
the strange custom regulating the

ciation. Marlon Hathaway, though sho was
not Interested In the rights of women,
was deeply Interested In tho rights of
a woman, and that woman was her
self. Miss Hathaway was twenty-six
years old and unmarried when It sud
denly occurred to her that thcro was
one right belonging to her that she
had been denied, not by any law, but
by the most Imperious of all rulers,
custom.
"A man," sho said, "may say with
Impunity. 'I'm looking for a wife.' but
lot n woman say tho same thing about
a husband and sho would bo consid
ered Immodest In tho extreme. Indeed,
her statement would bo he'd up to rldl-
culo and would defeat her purpose to
marry. Furthermore, a man may nsk
a dozen women ono nftcr another to
marry him, whllo n woman Is forbid
den to ask oven one man. Now, I'm
not going to submit to such Injustice
any longer. I wish a husband, homo
and children. I know tho man I
should like to marry. 1 dccltno to
angle for him. I'm going to assume
with regard to him tho same privilege
ho has assumed toward mo. I shall
propose marriage."
Mr. Archibald IIowo was tho man to
whom Miss Hathaway decided to pro
pose. Ho was thirty-two years old,
doing a good business and of good
standing both socially and as a citizen.
Miss Hathaway had nn Income or
$1,000 n year. In a business point of
vlow tho elements for n partnership
existed. The question In tho lady's
mind was this: First, had the man
over thought of her as ono be would
Hko to mnrry: second. If not, could sue
lead him to so think of her? Ho was
permitted to discover her feelings for
him. Why should sho not bo permitted
to learn his for her?
All this reasoning was well enough.
but to put It Into practho was another
matter. Miss Ilathuway winced at tin
first fine. A bravo way to act In the
enso was to sond for Mr. Howe nnd

A SIGH HAIR,

Copyright, 1010. by American Press Association.
Tho editor of the Excelsior Magazine
sat nt his desk opening envelopes con
taining contributions, uunning over
tho sheets of one to discover If It enmo
within the prescribed length, ho found
between two of them a hair. It was
too long for a man's hair nnd too short
for a woman's. Hut It must bo one,
or the other, nnd since the manuscript
wns sent In by a woman ho concluded
thnt It had belonged to the latter. It
wns not black or brown or red; It
wns golden. And tho name of the girl
on whoso head It had doubtless grown
was Nathalie Hose Arrowsmlth. Hut
perhaps this was fictitious.
Tho Kxcelslor Magazine was pub
lished In the far west, where women,
being comparatively scarce, nro appre
ciated. Possibly It was this that led
tho editor to dream over tho golden
hair and Nathalie Hose Arrowsmlth.
Ho was a young man of Ideal tastes.
Ho wns not tho owner of tho period

It wns to select such contributions as
would fit In between ccrtnln other
ntnple matter. He possessed literary
discrimination, but was awnro that this
delicate faculty was not considered In
fixing his Halnry. What wns expected
of him was to read tho manuscripts
that camo In to sco that there wns
nothing In them calculated to offend
uny of tho magazine's patrons, select
ing thoso that would lit tho empty
spaces.
That a good nnmo for Miss Arrow-
smith would be "the fair one with the
golden locks" gradually Insinuated It
self li'" tho young editor's mind. He
estimated the length of her produc
tion nud, finding it within limits, laid
It aside for acceptance In caso It con
tained nothing objectionable. Mean
while his operative mentality was on
his work, but his Ideal faculties those
nkln to soul were on "tno fair ono
with the golden locks." Uy the time
ho had read her manuscript he hnd con
jured up a poetic, aesthetic condition

Tho Philadclphlnn pushed through

Tho southerner couldn't explain, but

Tho young negro laughed. "Now,

written on every feature. She was n

ency to enter upon Innovations that
only the concurrent opinion of lnrge

she wns determined and. having once
put her hnnd to the plow, would not

Her heart had recommenced lls'ltcttle-

threatened to let her down on the tloor.
Thnt woman's nature bad something

grent force. Mr. nowo rose, she me
chanically extended hor hand, he re

Miss Uothawny's reply was u shiver.
"A matter of charity?" usked the
gentleman after n pause to help her
out
"Woll yes In n wny."
"For whom or what do you nsk old?"
"Myself."
Mr. Howe looked surprised.
"I havo sent for you, Mr. Howe," she
continued, with ovory Bhow of resolu

"Something dlsngreenblol"

Ho roRo from his scat nnd snt down

Miss Unthawny gathered hor facul
ties for a beginning.
"Did you over think of mo that Is,

Sho stopped.
Mr. Howe was looking nt her In
tently. Her bosom was heaving; hor
oyes woro like those of n hunted fawn.
It occurred to him thnt ho would like
to put his arms about her, take her
head on bin shoulder and comfort her.
"I Imvo freely resolved," sho wont
on. with u gasp, "nlways to remain

"Indeed!"
"Yes. And I have thought that wo
might dovoto ourselves to some world's

In keeping with the'estnblished De Laval custom
of making the De Laval Cream Separators as much
better each year as possible, the De Laval machines for
1910 show even greater perfection thon they have in
the past
The dairy farmer who buys a 1910 De Laval can
feel assured that he has by far the best Cream Sepa

The dairy farmer who lets the year or even the

the 1910 De Laval will be doing himself an injustice.
The opportunity of examining and trying a 1910
De Laval right at his own home is open, free of all cost
