tSODS OF LOVE AND JEALOUSY Sometimes Associated, but Not by Any Means Inseparable, as Gen erally Supposed. The prevalent idea appears to be that there can be no love without a pretty large admixture of jealousy, -and that, conversely, almost every case \ of jealousy springs from some mis guided love affair. Whether this idea is the right one or not is decidedly open to question. Ideal love affairs preclude jealousy altogether, and ^ where absolute trust and confidence exist there is no room at all for the green-eyed monster. One curious attribute of the jealous woman who plans to sweep her rivals out of the way is that she generally shows a marked lack of brains in her methods. Jealousy not only blunts all her finer feelings, but at the same time it causes a curious confusion of mind, which fails to take the proper grasp of consequences and which is utterly illogical and childishly reckless in its workings. One has only to glance at the daily papers to see this fact practically illus trated. The schemes of the jealous woman are the most childishly imma ture in the world, and in almost every case fall to pieces and bring speedy retribution on her own head. For not alone does the victim suffer. The worst generally comes upon the plotter her self. Love very often does bring a cer tain amount of jealousy in its train. But at the same time it is entirely up to ourselves to curb those feelings and to keep them from outward and visible expression. Moreover, it is perfectly true that, although love generally does admit of jealousy, the latter can exist and flourish pretty successfully with out love. Therefore in the last analysis we may most assuredly claim that jeal ousy and love are two distinct and quite separable affairs.—Savannah News. PIECES OF MAN REFITTEDT Circus Acrobat, “Smashed to Bits,” Is Being Scientifically Knitted Together. Like a vessel of fragile china, shat tered to pieces and then carefully patched together so that no eye can distinguish the cracks, Miriana Cortez, a Spanish circus performer, who was crushed and fractured in a score of places all over his body on April 10, has been knitted together by the doc tors of St. Luke’s Homeopathic hos pital and is now almost well again. Remarkable in the annals of surgery has been this man's strange case, in volving months of the most painstak ing work and racking suffering on the part of the patient. That he recov ered at all from his frightful njuries is remarkable; if he should regain all his physical faculties, as the surgeon say he will, it will be almost miracu lous. Cortez was an acrobat in the cir cus. He performed his most thrill ing acts on top of a long pole, which was balanced on a support, attached to a broad leather belt, worn by the strong man of the group. On the night of April 30, before a large crowd, Cortez was performing his act when his feet slipped. He went crashing to the ground. Both his legs were fractured, the right leg in '.he thigh and thfe left leg just above the ankle. His left col larbone was also fractured and his nose broken. His right arm was jolted out of its socket, and his left arm crushed under him. His head was bumped in reveral places. Inter nally several organs were thrown out of place and four ribs were fractured. —Philadelphia Record. To Protect a State’s Wards.

GINGERBREAD OF OLD DAYS Was a Luxury That Filled an "Achinj Void” in the Down East Boy. What memories this reference to the flve-cent ginger cake of commerce will arouse in the minds of men approach ing or past middle age who passed their boyhood in the country! v At all public gatherings where con cessions were given for the serving of refreshments it was the chief feature in the order of the day down to a period of much later than half a cen tury ago. And then it seems to have disappeared, suddenly and mysterious ly, after the manner of the disappear ance of the bootjack and the passen ger pigeon, and like them probably never to return. Who among us whose hair has grown thin atop or disappeared altogether cannot recall the bill of fare of the refreshment venders in those earlier and simpler days at fairs, town meet ings and Fourth of July celebrations! The assortment was not elaborate, but| it was filling and satisfying, and one got a good deal for his money, says the Biddeford (Me.) Daily Journal. Most conspicuously displayed were those ginger cakes, everywhere lo cally known as “baker’s gingerbread,” to distinguish it from homemade gin gerbread, which lacked the delicate color, the spicy fragrance, the work manlike finish and pleasing regularity of the imported article. Then there were coffee served in big mugs; crack ers and cheese, baked beans and brown bread, not infrequently home made doughnuts, and always raw oy sters. The gingerbread and the oysters were the things that took with the crowd; for only on such occasions were these viands readily attainable. What country boy has not watched some older person order a saucer of raw oysters, cover them with vinegar; and cayenne pepper and then absorb them as to the manner born, with-) out admiring the grace and nonchab ance with which the trick was dona and wishing for the time to como when he might venture to give such an exhibition? His consolation lay in a “sheet” of that famous baker’s gingerbread, and if he was particularly well fixed finan cially, a piece of cheese to go with it. Those were, indeed, happy days, when a piece of gingerbread and a hunk of cheese at a total expense of six cents, would fill an aching void which in these degenerate days is hardly satisfied with a six-course din ner. It may be assumed that the men who made that famous gingerbread are not all dead. Here and there-i throughout the country there must be several survivors who retired for well earned rest after long service in the best interests of hungry humanity. This being the case, ’t is barely pos sible that the recipe for those ginger cakes is not irretrievably lost.

The Likeness. “That chronic grumbler reminds mo of an express train.” “In what way?” “He is always on the rail." An V nfinished Song -BY -% Copyright, 1903. by ANGELA MORGAN ' W. R. H.or.t ———■----., % By sundown the summer boarder* who lounged about on the piazza of Onderdonk's farmhouse were already heavy-eyed and apathetic. People patronized the place to obtain absolute rest and relaxation rather than to Indulge In the strenuous sports or amusements of the season. The men—what few there were— Idled and smoked and went fishing. The women Idled, too, when they were not minding their children or gossiping or strolling through the sweet-smelling woods in quest of pine needles for pros pective sofa cushions. It Is during such periods of release from turmoil and responsibility that the human consciousness, steeped in sunshine and saturated with fresh air, dreams and drowses and forgets Its past. Such inactivity has almost a benumb ing influence; ambitions rest. Mem ories are blotted out. One Is kin to the birds and beasts content to eat and sleep and drink the open air. There was this stupor always in the atmosphere of Onderdonk's at sundown. Even the exquisite coloring of a glori fied west awakened nothing more than yawning comments, feeble, scattering attempts at praise. On an evening when the torpor was so heavy that the boardsr failed even of this effort, there came suddenly from the old fashioned parlor the sound of a foreign touch on the piano keys. It was a firm, masterful touch, and It thrilled each stupid listener wide awake. Other fingers had often essayed to awaken music from the piano. Just at dinner time there had been much bang ing and strumming of popular melo dies. This was different—so vastly differ ent that there was an Immediate move toward the window to discover who the player might be. "Why, it's that strange man in the gray suit—the one who came at noon!" murmured a fat mother, whose two chubby children strove to Intercept the view. "Who’d have thought him a musi cian!" exclaimed one of the younger women. “He looks a business man from head to foot." "Not if you observe him well," dis agreed her companion, promptly. "No tice his eyes and forehead. He has the artistic temperament. Can’t you-” She paused abruptly as the player’s sweet yet powerful tenor voice arose in song. After that no one spoke again. They were songs of the heart he sang. The golden quality that gave magiQ to his fingers through his voice and shook his listeners to the heart’s core. Alert, breathless, they heard him and lived again. Apathy was a thing of the past. They were not mere human beings now. They were souls. They could feel, could love. Old memories came rushing back. Old longings clamored. Life was a thing of restless beauty, of radiance, of untold possibil ities. So absorbed, so entranced were the listeners that they did not notice the approach of figures up the path, and were startled at a burst of merry laughter and Jest. “It’s Mr*. Wadsworth and her party,” whispered the fat mother. “They are Just getting home from that picnic.” Glances of annoyance greeted the in truders. Mrs. Wadsworth was not pop ular with her own sex at Onderdonk's. There was open disapproval of her frivolous ways, her attractive dress, her monopoly of the men. She seemed out of place there. And besides, as one of the prim bach elor girls observed: "No one knew any thing about her husband. Where was he supposed to be? She never men tioned him and he was not dead, pre sumably.” Clearly there was something uncer tain about Mrs. Wadsworth’s domestic affairs. So the women did not cultivate her. Just now, as she approached the piaz za with her escort, she looked provok ingly pretty and care free with the faint rose of the west reflected In her laughing face. Noting the disturbance which their arrival was creating and catching at last the sound of music from within, Mrs. Wadsworth’s party withdrew to the far end of the piazza, hushing their chatter to listen with the rest. The opening chords of another song were struck. Mrs. Wadsworth’s expres changed suddenly. It was “The Ros ary.” Clear and sweet, yet tremulous a* with tears, rose the beautiful tenor voice: me hours l ve spent with thee, dear heart. Are like a string of pearls to me-” Mrs. Wadsworth arose unsteadily and crossed to the window. Her face went white as she looked. She put up her hand and touched the fat mother’s shoulder as If for support. "I count them over, every one apart. My rosary, my rosary.” People were staring and commenting, but Mrs. Wadsworth seemed not to care. She stood, trembling, wide-eyed, with parted lips and uneven breath. "Oh memories that bless and burn-” She moved suddenly from the win dow. "I think I'll go in,” she faltered. The screen door closed behind her. Those outside saw her pause Just a mo ment in the hallway, then enter the dim parlor. “I kiss each bead and try at last to learn To kiss the cross—sweetheart!—to kiss-" The voice broke abruptly. There was a man’s startled exclamation and a woman's sob. The affair furnished splendid mate rial for the gossips next morning. “To think of their having been sep arated two years and of their meeting here in that unexpected way! Why, It’s Just like a bit of fiction. Isn’t It?” “It’s a wonder he would take her back! I shouldn’t In his place,” said the bachelor girl, severely. “Well, you can’t tell,” murmured the fat mother. "Perhaps he was as much to blame as she. It's often the case, you know. Anyway, they're certainly happy now, and I think he was right to forgive her.” It Didn’t Work.

POLES TO BE‘NEARLY'FREE New Europe Must Result From Chancellor’s Words, Tagehlatt Asserts—Means Strength ening of German Empire. Berlin, (via London). Aug. 28.—Ger man newspapers, with a few exceptions, comment exhaustively on the speeches In the Reichstag of the Imperial Chan cellor Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, at taching particular Importance to his re marks, concerning Poland. The gen eral opinion set forth In the press Is that the government contemplates an nexation of Russian Poland, which meets with almost universal approval. Editorial comment, although dealing frankly with this subject. Is restricted to some extent by the prohibition of the discussion of annexation—a pro hibition promulgated by the chancellor himself. The Taegllche Rundschau says that "Poland will be freed finally from the Russian yoke and guaranteed a more fortunate future.” The Poles, thte newspaper says will be independent, or nearly so." The Taegllche Rundschau questions whether an Independent Poland under German sovereignty would not be a menace to Germany and whether the chancellor In bringing up the discus sion of annexation has not retarded the conclusion of peace by bringing home to Russia realization that its richest Industrial province may be lost. The Nachrichten, of Dresden, draws the conclusion from the chancellor’s speech that the government does not Intend to permit Poland again to be Under Russian control. The Tageblatt, of Lelpsic says: “The world now knows how we became In volved In this war and the chancellor for the first time has lifted the veil concealing the purpose of the war and has Indicated distinctly and manfully what Is to be the reward of the efforts of ourselves and our allies—freedom of the east to the west and the weakening of Russia to the east." The Nachrichten, of Lelpsic, ex presses the belief that the military achievements of Germany thus far are not sufficient to warrant the chancel lor’s utterances. The Tageblatt. of Rerlln says: "A certain goal Is clearly to be seen In the chancellor's words. A new Eu rope, a new order of things must re sult, which will make Impossible any encircling of Germany, any breaking of her circuit in the future. The basis therefor© Is In the chancellor’s opinion, the extension and strengthening of the German empire. In this purpose all Ger mans will agree with him."

Aug. 23.—The body of Mrs. Josephine L. Brugulere, one of the two Americans lost with the Arabic has been found, the White Star line announced today. This was based on a conversation. It was said, with Mrs. S Marion Brugulere, the dead woman's daughterinlnw, who was quoted as say lng she had received a cable message to that effect. Maid’s Body Found. Young Mrs. Brugulere also was quoted by a representative of the line as having said that the body of her motherlnlaw's French maid. Margaret Boudet, has been recovered, too. M. Boudet, one of the two maids who sailed with Mrs. Brugulere. had here tofore been listed among the survivors. It was said that the cablegram re ceived by Mrs Marion Brugulere con tained no details. s London Aug. 23.—At least five pas sengers, two of whom were Americans, 1 and 40 members of the crew lost their lives when the White Star liner Arabic} was torpedoed and sunk by a German . submarine off Fastnet. Nine other passengers arc missing and are believed to have perished. S The two Americans who went flown with the ship were Mrs. Josephine ; Brugulere. of New York, and Dr. Ed mund T. Wood, of Janesville, Wls. Mrs. Brugulere was thrown into the water and kept afloat for some time by her son Louis, who was forced to relinquish his hold when he was struck by a piece of wreckage. Nothing was seen oil Wood after the steamer was struck. Most of the missing membei-s of the 3 crew belonged to the engineer’s staff. They remained at their posts and went down with the ship. Captain Finch and the other officers of the Arabic assert that the submarine gave them no warning. They declare the torpedo was fired as they were go ing to the rescue of the steamer Duns ley which had just been torpedoed, pre- § sumably by the same submarine. That the loss of life was not mucl| heavier was due to the preparations made by the officers In view of the possibility of an attack while passing through the "war zone;” to the fine weather which prevailed and to the splendid discipline maintained by the crew. Life belts had been placed on the decks and the lifeboats swung out. As soon as the ship was struck, rafts were flung over the side. Many of the ; passengers and crew who were thrown Into the water climbed on board these rafts or were dragged on to them by persons already upon them. The Americans who reached Queens town were cared for by the United , States consul. With the other passen- > gerB they left Ireland for England last night.
