HER OWN SWEET SELF - 11* J. II I.M A>s III lll.KY _ Copyrhjhttd, 1*03, by Tht Author* PitblitMiu/ Company L____ A man was sitting in (he comfort able parlor of a modern up town resi dence. There was a scowl upon his handsome features which quickly gave place to a look of determination as he heard the rustle of a woman’s skirts in the hall. "Now for a scene," lie muttered, bracing himself as for a trying ordeal. The woman swept into the room with a grace that marked her as one of high sentiment, having a firm, com mon sense grasp u]H>n the every-day affairs of life. She greeted him with a bright smile —a smile that gave token of the deep, true love she held for the man before her. Going over she seated herself upon the arm of his chair, then coquettlshly looking down into his eyes, she said: "Roy, dear, I would like some money this morning, as 1 have an appoint ment with the dressmaker this after noon. He glared at her for a moment, then thrust his hands deep into his pock ets. "Money, money, money; good heavens, Wynn, how you can get away with it. it is only a week since I gave you fifty dollars; where in the world did it all go to? You are just like all the rest of the women— spent it all for some foolish tiling. 1 thought, when I married you, that you had at least a little common sense, hut from morning until night you are on the go after some useless thing. A man wears out his life trying to fill a woman’s purse.” She laughed a little at his outburst, and her voice took on a bantering tone as she replied: “Thanks, hubby, always glad to hear you express yourself. So you think lhat is all 1 married you for; just to spend your money, and to have a good time. Well, really, 1 must confess that the pastime have proven very enjoyable.” "Enjoyable!” he burst forth, “1 should say It has. It's turned out just as 1 have long expected; your extravagance lias ruined us. Do you understand, woman? Ruined us! I have borrowed to keep you going, to pay It back as business Increased, but now I have failed, l.ast night 1 made an assignment, and this morning l stand before you without a penny. Oh! if you had only been like other women, 1 would not thus have to hide my head in same.” He had risen to his feet, and was pacing up and down the room. She went over to him and placed her hand upon his arm. There was a note of sympathy and sorrow in her voice as she replied: “My dear, dear boy, I am very sorry indeed that it has come to this; perhaps I was wrong, but 1 did only as 1 thought you would like me to do. A woman, they say. is what a man makes her; is it so?” He started in sudden amazement. "What, a man makes her," lie echoed; “why, woman, have I caused you to make a pauper of me?" A roguish twinkle flashed in her "/our extravagance has ruined us.” eyes, and evading his question she continued: “Roy. dear, give me a kiss, and we will begin life over again. I shall fry to be like other women in the future.” “Kiss you? No!” and without even a backward glance, he turned and walked out of the room. l>eft alone, the wife seated herself In an easy chair, and as she sat thinking there came Into her mind, not anger, but sympathy for the man who had just accused her of causing his min. No one can know what anguish swayed her heart. Was this to he the end of their happy days; those happy days, the anticipation of which had so brightened (lie dawn of her htidehood? "Poor Hoy," she «aid, slowly, "the dear, dear boy: he feels very bad, in deed. It's just like a man, always to accuse the woman when anything goes wrong." At last, rising to her feet, she mur mured: "The husband has fulled, so M .St ^ /ft Womanlike, she burst into tears. the wife had better see what the fu ture lias in store for her." Ordering her carrlarge, she was driven to the office of her husband’s lawyer. After a short interview, the lawyer left the office and was gone for some time. When lie returned he l anded her a hunch of keys and some papers, saying: “I wish you every success in carrying out your plans for the future.” Thanking him, she departed. Her next stop was at her husband’s place of business. By means of the key she gained admittance, and at onco proceeded to his private office. Going, to his desk she made a careful search through it. and soon found a drawer marked “private.” In this were a number of hills and accounts. These she went over very carefully, deter mined to find out the exact condition of his affairs. Klie added the items, then compared the total with a receipt which was among the papers the lawyer had given her and found the amounts to he the same. 'Ah, ha!" she exclaimed, "my sus picions were well founded; now for business." ('ailing a messenger she directed him to notify the head clerk to re port lor duty, and as soon as he ar rived, she had him dispatch the fol lowing note: ‘.Mr. Roy Evans, City: “Sir—Your immediate presence is requested at the office. "Respectfully, “J. Clark." Roy was not long in putting in an appearance, and seeing her sitting at Ills desk, he started back hi amaze ment. “Why, Wynn!” he exclaimed, “what bre yon doing here? This Is no place for you.” “Place or not,” she replied, “that can be discussed later on, and in the meantime will you kindly inform me us to tin correctness of these bills.” handing him a number of Hills, being lor wine suppers, dinner parties, luncheons and numerous similar ex pensive luxuries. He was trembling violently as he sat down to look them over; she was perfectly eool and self-possessed. “And now,” she continued, when he bait finished examining them, “are they of your own contracting?” “yes,” he faltered, "1 must admit that they are.” “Does not their total equal the amount for which you are involved?” she asked. “Yes. it does.” he acknowledged. “Read this!” she commanded, as she handed him another paper. As his glance fell upon it he started. It was a receipt in full for his Indebt edness. lie gazed at her In amaze ment. At length he gasped: “Wynn—Wynn, what does this mean. Who-” “That the wife has paid the hus band's debts,” she broke in. “Oh, Roy. why did you do It! You thought you were keeping ay this from me, and accused me of ruining you. when you brought it upon yourself. 1 found some of those bills soon after our marriage, and seeing how it would end. 1 saved my me iey for this time. Oh! you can never know what heart aches it has cost me, hut now. thank Hod! your good name Is redeemed." and sinking into a chair, woruan-like, she gave way to a flood of tears. Roy staggered to his feet. Reeling like a drunken man. he crossed the room, and reaching her chair he fell upon his knees beside it. ‘ Darling." he sobbed, "can you ever forgive me; I must acknowledge the truth. Never before did I dare eon less my guilt. This morning I sought to blame you for it all, brute that 1 was. My love, my love, forgive me, and 1 shall prove myself a man in the future; there shall he no more of this. As God is m.v witness 1 shall try to bo worthy of you.” Stooping over, she lifted his face to hers, and kissed away his tears, as she replied: "Darling, do you not know that my heart has already forgiven you?” Springing to his feet he clasped her in his arms. “Sweetheart!" he cried, “I thank God that you are like your own sweet self!" SCHEME DID NOT WORK. Gmart City Individual Outdone by Smooth Farmer. Into the Jersey City station of the Pennsylvania railroad sauntered a portly man. He wore a chesty look and carried an umbrella. Advancing to one of the benches, he pulled a chain and padlock from his pocket, ran one end of the chain through the open handle anti made the umbrella fast to the seat. Then he said it) a man sitting there: ‘ I’ve traveled all over this country for five years, and l know a thing or two.” Then he walked away. The man who sat there got up. He had a check suit and a smooth cheek. He stepped up to the umbrella, pulled a file from his pocket., rubbed It to and fro across one of the links in the chain for a few minutes, loosening the umbrella. Then he said to an other man: "If the feller who is smarter than chain lightnln- comes hack after his parasol, tell him the chap you saw a walkln’ off with it never was off the farm afore.’’—New York Times. YES. THE GRATE DREW. But the Customer Was Not Altogether Satisfied. "Well, sir, doesn’t that grate draw since 1 fixed it?" inquired the hardware , man as a customer walked in. I "Yes, it draws like a 15-cent cigar." “Oli, I thought so. I knew it would. I tell you when that patent attachment of mine doesn't make a grate draw it is time to tear down the house and build the flues over again. It never fails. But you were saying?” "1 was saying that it drew. I was remarking that it drew so strong that it drew all the soot Rnd ashes out into the middle of the room. I was sug gesting that that patent appliance of yours was a great thing, but that you got it at the wrong end of the chim ney. I want that smoke drawn into the outer air And I was furthermore saying that you had better, put up a little deposit to cover the loss of ear pet and set of parlor furniture ruined by smoko and soot, or 1 will levy on your store in the morning. Yes, that thing draws, hut it can’t draw checks, so you’ll have to do that.” At Last. 1 dreamed Iasi night that thou didst fly to me With outstretched hands, crying: "At last, at last!" Then time and space were not. The changeful past Fled far, as pale wraiths from the sun rise flee, Death bared no flaming sword 'iwixl thee and me; •Thou wen alive! Thy lips were warm on mine. Thy dark eyes shone, and those, sirring arms of thine Held me close clasped, hi wordless ec stasy. O love, dear love, we have been parted long! The tides of life and deaih have borne us far Each from the other. Where tho im mortals are, Thou werest still, exultant. lithe and strong. Thy crown of youth, resplendent as the star That sang for very Joy earth's matin song— While I, still loitering in life's dim maze. Grow old and wan, remembering othe da ys! —Smart Set. Blacksmiths Earn $12,000 a Year. Robert Bonner w.ir the man who first started laney prices for horse shoeing when he paid $100 for shoeing Dexter. Others of uig stables to-day pay far more than that for shoeing a horse, but. they don t pay it to a man keeping a blacksmith shop and doing public business as Bonner did. The money goes in (he list of salaries and presents to expert blacksmiths who work only for owners of big stables and who travel with crack racing horses wherever they go. Some of these blacksmiths get $12,000 a year and expenses, besides a liberal present if the owner has had a lucky year. Her Reason. Mrs. Wabash- Why do you take that dreadfully sensational paper? There's nothing in it hut scandals and highway robberies. .Mrs. I.akefrout—That’s the reason. I’m getting my husband so frightened that he hasn’t said club to me for a fortnight." Saw His Finish. Bifkins—So Mrs. Boss wick is going to marry again, eh? Mifkina—Yes; and her fiance boasts of being a self made man. Bifkins—Well, it’s doughnuts to I fudge she’ll make him over again.

Whitewash needs to he well made to do its work effectually; too often It. comes off in flakes, once the house Is dry, If the woodwork Is touched Finely slacked lime should be dts solved in hot water; making the lime as thick as possible; add a little soft soap and some paraffin, and we get a whitewash that will kill the lice and stick to the woodwork. It should- ho applied hot, the walls of the poultry house being first swept down to clean them of cobwebs ami dirt, aud tho perches and nest boxes removed, tabbing the walls with a thin mixture jf lime and water does little or no good. The perches and neSt boxes should also be treated to a coat of whitewash; the work should bo dono rn the morning, so that by nightfall the house and perches and nest boxes are dry again.
