Bank Lewis of Sabina, Ohio, is highly respected all through that section. He has lived in Clinton Co. 75 vears, and has been president of the Sabina Bank 20 years. He gladly testilies to the merit of Hood's Sarsa- i avilla, and what he says is worthy nitention. Al brain workers find Hood's Sarsaparilla peculiarly adapted to their needs. It makes pure, rich, red blood, and from this comes nerve, mental, bodily and digestive strength. *“*Tam glad to say that Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla is a very good medicine, especially asa blood purifier. It has done me good many times. For several years I suffered g-cc‘ly with pains of Neuralgia ii, com> eye and about my temples, es- pecially at night when I had been aaving « hard day of physical and mental labor. Itook many remedies, but found help only f'eod’s Sarsaparilia which cured me of rhermatism, neuralgia and headache. liceel’s Sarsaparilla has proved itself a true President Isaac friend. I also take Hood’s Pills to keep my bowels regular, and like the pillr very much.” Isaac Lewis, Sabina, Ohio. 2 oods Sarsaparilla I¢tho One True Blood Purifier. All druggists. €1. Prepared only by C.

I'd like to help you ‘very well,” “T'll put it off for been a) good to ine if I can.’’ The ‘‘nice girls’’ didn’t appeal to in the least, but he went home by Mrs. Millicent’s sympathy of encouragement. “Oh, you big, handsome, silly fellow,”’ she thought when he left her, ‘‘you think miserable, end you'll go to minute your_head touches the pillow,’’ but she, who had really known trouble, lay awake half the night think- ing of many tiknes. Her guests came after a they really were nice, and very pretty, too, Gerald saw them daily and before the month wis orer he was madly in love with Miss Sherlock. Theat is, he didn't call it ‘‘madly,”’ to hitrcc'f.. He felt sure that Kittie had broken his heart, in the most unfeeling manner, and that h —=l@ xever. fcol sogain as ho kad fek tow.rd hk But, after all, life went on He was not especially happy, cond ker was a charming, congenial girl who mac him happier whenever le met her. Why coulcn’f he make the rensation permen ent instead of so intemnittent? So he rea soned, and so one night, when he and she were alone together, he reached over and took her hand. She drew it away with a little manner that stayed the him cheered and words rou're so d sleep the few days, and frichte ‘ned words on his lips. ‘*] beg your pardon,”’ he said, simply. **your rings are very beautiful.’’? She hele out her hand to him, the color warm in her cheeks. **Yes,’’ she said with a little gasp, ‘1 do not always wear them, but this one ] ought to—I should—’’ She faltered and stopped. His face was crimson. ‘‘ You mean—”’ ‘Yes, it is my engagement ring.’’ She spoke with a sort of tumultuous energy, as if each word had gathered itself for a leap. ‘There was a short, awkward silence. **Do you think that’s fair ?’ he blurted out at last. **T don’t understand you.”’ “Yes you do. You know what I was going to say; you stopped me with this. Don’t you think your confession is a little late?’’ ‘How could I know? How dared I imagine such things? Do you think a girl believes every man she meets will fall in love with her, unless she wears a danger signal? I never dreamed—I never sus- pected—I hope now it isn’t true.’’ The tears rose in her honest eyes, 2nd the sight of them gave Gerald the first real pang he had felt. ‘*Never mind,’’ he said with a sort of pathetic dignity, ‘‘I dare say it’s my fault. I’m a good deal of a fool.”’ ‘*And you'll believe,’’ she said looking at him with sorry, shining eyes. “‘T shall believe nothing but good of you.”’ He raised her hand to his lips and kissed it. A good woman is very apt to exagger- ate the pain she gives a man, by refusing him. She measures his grief by her capacity to love some one else and finds his loss great and terrible. As a matter of fact, most men have been refused, at one time or another, and very few of them have been blighted in the process. This girl, for instance, cried a good deal over her carelessness and _heartless- ness. She felt deeply remorseful for what she had done. But Gerald bore the blow with composure, and without any bitter- ness whatever. Of course, he did not go to Mrs. Milli- cent’s so often, until after her guests had departed, but then he fell into his old ways of dropping in to see her; of listen- ing to her singing, of taking her to drive. She soothed him and rested him. She began to scem to him the one woman in the world who never exasperated. One night he told her he loved her. He made the confession a little shyly, for she had always treated him with a cer- tain matronly kindness, as if she were very much older than he. She did not answer for some time—so long in fact, that he became very uncom- fortable. Then she said slowly :— ‘‘How long have you cared for me, Gerald?’’ ‘Ever since I have answered promptly. She looked at him in amazement. “Oh,” he added hastily, ‘‘I suppose you are thinking of Miss Sherlock. Yes, I did like her.”’ ‘*And told her so?’’ ‘*Yes, I told her so."’ ‘‘But that was only a month ‘*T know it.’’ Their eyes met in the silence that lowed and then they both laughed. ‘*But, Gerald,’’ she said, looking «t bim straight, from under those level eye- brows, ‘‘this is not a laughifig matter.”’ ‘I know it is nat,’’ he said penitently. ‘*Before you met Miss Sherlock, were- n’t you fond of some one else?’’ “Yes, that Was Kittie; I was engaged to her.’’ ‘‘And before Kittie?’’ ‘‘I don’t think this is fair, Mrs. Milli- known you,’’ he ago.’’ fol- cent. Yes, there were others before Kit- tie.’ He was red and defiant new, } ut truthful in the depths of his embarrass- ment. Her eyes twinkled a little asked him, gravely :— ‘*Have you ever been called jickle?’’ ‘IT say, Mrs. Millicent, this isn’t fair a bit. I’m in dead earnest, and you do nothing but chaff me! I know I've liked other girls, I’ve been a feol if you choos» to call me so, but this is different.’ ‘*Is it, Gerald? Suppose I should accept this omnibus affection of you, how long before you'd be offering it to some one else?’’ He flushed indignantly. right to say that. If you us she ‘*You’ve no would let me love you I would never look st another woman in my life.”’ ‘*Do you know, Gerald, strange as it may seem, I believe you.”’ ‘Thank you,’’ he said a little stiffly. **Do you know, I think your fick lene: 38 is only a sign of great fidelitv. %.». — - not langhing at You; i mean’ ity ~ You have loved ‘the etevnal womanly,’ that is all. Whenever yott have met a woman who seemed sweet and lovable and attrac- tive, you have been drawn toward her like a piece of iron to a magnet. When you were detached, the next magnet drew you in the same way, but it wouldn’t have moved you at all if you'd been firmly fastened to the first one.’’ She smiled as she watched his eager, attentive face. “I believe,’’ she went on, “that you would make the most faithful of lovers. the most loyal of husbands, if once your love and tenderness were centered some- where where it was treasured and re- turned.,”’ ‘Il know L.would,’’ he said, enthusias- tically, ‘‘I know I would.”’ **l even believe that I could happy if I tried, Gerald.’’ “Oh, Mrs. Millicent!’’ ‘Tam older than you—oh,not in years, I know—but I have suffered, and, even Without that, mine is the older nature. I know, as a young girl cannot know, how great and beautiful a thing an honest man’s love is. I should be so careful of it, I would never trifle with it, never hold it lightly, it is beyond all price.”’ She stopped, her voice choking a little. He rose and stood in front of her. “And you will take mine,’’ he said. ‘*Oh, indeed, it will last! I am sure—I never felt like this before !’’ She put her hands before her minute. Them she said:— ‘*Is it quite fair to you? your love, I shall revel in your make you face a I shall love devotion —but it wil be a little different. A younger woman would meet you more fairly—more equally. She would love and quarrel and make up. I shall man- age you. You will be very comfortable, and you won’t know it, but—do you want to be managed?’’ ‘*Always,’’ he said will do it.’’ fervidly, ‘‘if you She smiled at him, but he hesitated now. He looked like a thirsty man, who, traveling over an arid plain, comes un- expectedly upon a sparkling spring, yet who will not touch its waters until he is sure of their purity. ‘“*You have been so frank, awkwardly, ‘‘and I can’t talk as you do, and express things, but I want to say something—I know I will be happy with you, because I love you so, but if it’s only my love you care for, and the man- aging me, and making me comfortable— if it’s that, I’m afraid you won’t be hap- py. You will have to love me a little bit, just for myself you know, or the rest won't count. Do you think you could?’ Her eyes had the softest, sweetest look in them, that he had ever seen in a wo- man’s face. There was infinite tender- ness shining through a little mist of tears. **Dear,’’ she said have loved you all the time. He put his arms around her then and kissed her, and us his lips touched hers, he felt the first link forming in the chain, which would keep him hers through life. They were married and went abroad, and it was over a year before he saw Kittie Mcholson again. He felt himself the very happiest of men. The birth of his first child recenthy had been a source of the keenest delight to him. His heart was so full of good will to all men that he even included some women and he forgave Kittie for all her cruelty. He went up to her and offered her his congratulation s upon her approaching marriage. She shrugged her shoulders coquettishly as she answered him. **And you are very happy?’’ she asked. ‘“Yes,”’ he said honestly, ‘‘I am.”’ ‘*‘What mistakes we make, don’t we?’’ she said, glancing at him, and then let- ting her long eye-lashes droop a little. **Yes, Kittie, we do.’ ‘*But you know [I told you in the be- ginning that you were in love with Mrs. Millicent.’’ ” he began softly, “I think I 99 ‘*You did, Kittie, and I have never thanked you for it. I don’t believe I should ever have found it out, if you hadn’t been so sure of it.’’ A Country Boy’s Wit, Any one who has ever been rash enough to attempt to make sport of the street gamin of a Jarge city Knows only too well what a fatal mistake it is, says the Youth’s Companion, but one is not so well prepared to be made the victim of his own joke by an apparent unsophisti- cated country boy. A lad of 15 was driving alon a coun- try road, taking a load of calves to mar- ket when he chanced to meet a company of young folk who were evidently out for a pleasure excursion. The young men of the party, thinking to amuse themselves and their companions at the boy’s ex- dense, began to imitate the bleating of the calves. But their merriment was of short dur- ation, for without a moment’s hesitation he called out to his would-be tormenters, as the vehicles were passing: ‘Oh, I knew what you were before!’’ Mean Wills. Husbands wha profess to love their wives intensely, sometimes play them a very mean trick when about to depart for that better land where there is ‘‘neither marrying nor giving in mar- riage.’’? One might suppose that a tender ‘spouse, on the eve of being divorced by death from the partner of his joys and sorrows, would be governed in the dis- position of his worldly goods by an earn- est desire to render her earthly future a happy one. If he has a fortune to be- queath to her, why should he makea dog-in-the-manger will, providing that she shall enjoy it only during her widow- hood? What right has he to condemn her to a life of loneliness, under penalty of pauperism, in case she shall marry again? Husbands about to shuffle off this mortal coil, if you desire to be tenderly borne in mind by your: relicts, don’t deal with them after this contemptible fashion.
