To aome Love comes so splendidly and soon, With such wide wings, and steps bp royally. That they, like sleepers wakened sud denly. Expecting dawn, are blinded by his noon. To some Love comes so silently and late That all unheard he is and passes by. Leaving no gift but a remembered sigh, While they staj^d watching at another gate. But some know Love at tlie enchanted hour; They hear him singing like a bird afar; They see him commg like a falling star; They meet his eyes and all their world's in flower. When Ned Dalton married Una Per kins the village gossips reaped a har vest. Every one had something to say except the man whose heart was smarting under the wrong dealt him by the friend and schoolmate of his boyhood and the woman he had loved ever since she was a wee lass. When some of his friends came to him to offer sympathy, Tom Reed met them with an impenetrable reserve. He turned with renewed fervor to his work upon a wonderful invention, which he never ceased to believe would one day make his fortune. Una and Ned went to housekeeping in a cozy little cottage on the edge of the village, and for a time it seemed as if the dark prognostications would prove false. Then Ned got into bad company and neglected his wife and home. After the baby came it was worse. Una expostulated, entreated, rebelled. They quarreled bitterly and one dark,.dismal November night Ned took the midnight train to Greenfield and the next morning was speeding away on the Northern Pacific express to Seattle, the gold fever in his veins and the Klondike a dazzling vision be fore his eyes. He left a letter for Una: “I’ve gone to make my fortune in the gold fields. If I never come back, marry Tom. He always loved you, and it will be some amends for the wrong we both did him. “NED." Una read the note with blinding tears, and fancied her heart was bro ken. But as the months passed and grew into years, and no word came from her husband, it was Tom she thought of most. For the first year after her husband left she watched every mail, hoping that it would bring her some message. Now five years had gone, and she had given up all hope. One day as she came home from work, her mother met her at the door. “Una, we have heard at last,” she said, as she put a western paper in her daughter's hands, and pointed to a small notice marked in blue pen cil. Died—In Denver, May 18, Edward Dalton, aged 32. Westbrook, Conn., papers please copy. "Now Tom will surely come,” Una thought. But he did not. One day she learned that he was ill, in dire poverty in a ne ghboring city. She went to the address that had been given her, and stumbled up the dark, ill-smelling stairs to the wretched hall bedroom that he occupied. Knocking timidly at the door, she received no response. She opened the door softly. "Una!” He had awakened and rec ognized her. “Una, why have you come?” “To ask your forgiveness, Tom.” “You had that long ago. Do you think I don’t know what you have suf fered?” “Then why have you stayed away all these years, Tom?” “Can you ask? Book around. What Y ' Una read the note with blinding "tears. have I to offer any woman You’ve had enough of poverty, my girl.” “But your invention. Surely, Tom, you can interest some one in that.” "I’ve tried, Una—every friend I know.” “But have you tried our manager, Mr. Norton? He made a fortune in oil last year, and has plenty of ready capi tal.” "Why do you think he would help me?” “From something his wife told me. You know, she has been such a friend to me, Tom. That was the beginning of Tom's good fortune. Mr. Norton was inter ested in his behalf and advanced funtls. Soon Tom had regained his former ^strength and was working att day and long into the night at the fac tory which boro the name of Nortoa. Rood & Co. Una and Tom wore married on the day that tho factory wheels first start ed to run, and even the village gos sips admitted that they would surely be happy at last. And so they were until the tide turned. A wealthier firm than Norton, Reed & Co. manufactured sweaters and ceps at prices with which they could not hope to compete. Tom was in desrair, for again ruin stared him in the face. One drizzling night a stranger alighted at the station, took the only cab the village afforded and told the driver. Old Bill Streaker, to take him to Thomas Reed's. On tho way they conversed. “Did you know a fellow who lived here once by the name of Ned Dalton. I met him out west,” the stranger said. “Did I know Ned Dalton? Well, I guess I did. Every one knew him. Good hearted as the day was long, but shiftless. Just about broke Una Per kins’ heart, and played Tom Reed a mighty dirty trick. Tom and Ned were chums till Tom fell in love witli Una, and then Ned cut. him out. Darn ed if I know how he did, though, even if he was a handsome cuss. “But she got her reward all right. wsm.1" iMjmumftiimtxwgni I Under the window he paused and looked ir.. She and Ned lived a cat and dog life, and one night he sneaked off to the gold fields. She never see hide nor hair of him after that, till one day she heard he was dead. “Then she married Tom. That’s just about a year ago. They were happy as clams at first, but they’ve had mighty mean luck of late. They’re poor as a church mouse, they say.” When they got in sight of the house the stranger gave the old man a dollar and dismissed the cab. Lights gleamed from the little cot tage. The stranger stood a long time leaning over the gate, smoking his cigar. Then he threw it aside, set his jaw, squared his shoulders, opened the gate and walked up the path. Under the window he paused and looked in. Tom sat at tho open fireplace star ing in at the fire. Una sat at liis feet, leaning against his knee. Her boy, sprawled at full length beside her, played with a kitten. Una’s face was turned toward the window, and it look ed wan and white in the firelight. Tom's hand was resting lightly on her head. A cold December rain was falling hut. the drops on the cheeks of the stranger were warm. Then he turned and walked rapidly away in the dark ness. A week later Mr. Norton came to Tom, his face radiant with good news. “An order for 1,000 sweaters, caps and leggings from Messrs. Lucky, Strike & Co., Chicago, Tom!" After that orders poured In so rap idly that Tom could hardly fill them, and with every order came a check in payment. Other firms, seeing the output of the factory, gained confi dence In them, and gave them their orders, and In a few months the busi ness was on a paying basis. Then one day Tom read the fol lowing article, clipped from a Seattle paper: “The proprietor of the Lucky Strike mine, on tho upper Yukon, who is said to have’taken out some $5,000,000 of gold in thfe last three years, owes the discovery of this rich claim to the In dians. He has repaid them In tho fol lowing original manner: Every man, woman and child of the entire tribe hns received the present from him of a woolen sweater, cap and leggings. These garments are of as many colors as Jacob’s coat, and the tribe is not only the most comfortably clad, but the most picturesque Indians we have in the far west.” Tom took the paper to Una. “Can it ho—” His lips failed to speak the name. Some l*w months ago a San Fran cisco paper printed the report of a steamer lost ej route to Alaska. Among the pas 1 ■ O. O. SNYDER & C O.

WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, 8AY8: Baltimore, Md., March 30, iqoi. Gentlemen .* — Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give yon a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted n num ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this cit\, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected car would he lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noisesc.cascd. and to day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I U :>rk you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours, F. A. WERMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltii.u.ic " i. ' Our treatment, does not, interfere with your usual occupation.
