It’s the fellow who is even, Or a little way ahead; The man who pays us promptly And whose checks are always signed, He's vastly more important Than the man who is behind. .For every kind of' business And the whole commercial clan Is indebted for existance To this honest fellow man. He keeps us all a-going , And h' 5. town is never dead, So we all take our hats off To the man who is ahead.

She had been marTM in early youth, her fcm&*acl died, she had taken up Kinging, ^Ocotae famous in grand Oiawfa; and she chu.risht.'d her persoaai rejiutatltm hw » than her professional one, - t A beautiful woman at thirty-five— tail, exquisitely Juoldad. a tragic hero­ ine Who called fiuws thunders of applause when she swept on the stage; In private Ufe un:ip])toju-hahle. She had no heart, her critics said. Perhaps she bad tdved ^estrange so well that no other man could take his place. Bob Hampton wn$^ her .closest friend, If such a woman could be said to have friends. She had known him eight, ten, twelve years. He was said tp be madly In love with her. She held 1dm off, laughed at him, accept­ ed his invitations. He was much older than she—he must have been well into the fifties when Emma was thirty-five. “Emma, why won’t you marry me?” he pleaded. "It isn’t as if It would mean'the end of your career. ..You^ shall be as Independent as you are now. j! I am a very rich man—every- thlng Xhave fs yoursJand I only ask to-be permitted to share your life a little, because I love you.” She refused him. “We’ve been .friends so long, roy dear. Is it fair to refuse me, .unless, you care for anyone else?” Then Emmaanswered him, and It - was just that sort of heartlessness that had made her' so many Silent enemies. “What you propose is impossible. Bob, and—and I’ve got to go further than that, Do you know that our be­ ing seen about together is gravely comprdftfisiug me?” “Meaning?” asked Boh. “We shall have to part forever, Bob. I’ve always valued my reputa­ tion more than anything in the world," “Emma, that’s a mania of yours. No one had ever assailed your reputation. IPs perfectly proper for me to be your friend.” ' * » ’ “It may he a madia, Bob, but all the same thts must be good-by.” Bob Hampton looked at her, and In that moment be seemed to see Emma Lestrange in ail her coldness, and selfishness more clearly than be had ever done before. "imma, you’re a bard woman, and I’m going to punish you for it,” lie said, Emma shrugged her shoulders. 'Bob had ceased to. Interest her., They „ parted. That was their last meeting. He wrote her * letter, but she did not answer It. Her career occupied all her time. And a few months later Bdb Hampton died suddenly, *wo weeks inter Emma received a letter from his lawyer* asking her to call. Mystified, yet hoping that he had left her a legacy, she wept to their offices. "It’s about Mr, Hnmpton’a will* Mrs. Lestrange,” the senior partner ex­ plained. "It.appears.that Mr, flump- ton’s sister and brother intend to con­ gest it.. Ypu will, of bourse, he Joint defendant with the co-heiress,” "I don’t understand," she an­ swered. ,. “Is It posslbl% yofi do not know that-he has left you practically all his estate, to the exclusion of members of Ms family?” He went on to tell her thnt the es­ tate was..valued at something over: a million dollars; that she was to re­ ceive all except 120,000, which was to go to a colored Woman, an old fam­ ily servant. "Of course you’ll fight They are alleging undue influence—” “I won’t fight,” cried Emma. "I can’t afford that sort, of publicity.” “They refuse to compromise.” *Td father give up everything.” . "Impossible, madam. The other legatee will fight for her $20,000. It is impossible for your name to be dis­ associated from the contest.” “But It means ruin for me, People will say—” She stopped in dismay at the pe­ culiar look On the lawyer’s face. "My dear madam, noperof us is ex­ empt from uujustMed scandal. It will hardly matter, wuh so much money nt stake, will it? For Mr. Hampton was undoubtedly sane, and you will be a very rich woman4-" $he looked at him in terror, and tfie full meahing of Bob Hampton’s re­ venge came to her understanding. How exquisitely it had been planned. So long as "she lived people would point tlielr fingers nt her ns the wom­ an who had influenced Bob Hampton to. make over his property to her. And the colored woman—Oh, he’d tied‘her up nicely! She Went out with shaking knees. “I wish Tdmarried you,Boh," shewhis­ pered as she groped for the elevator. Wind’s Effect on Tidelesa Lake*. Under thafforce of great gales large lakes and tideless seas, like the Cas­ pian, have been observed to experi­ ence surprising changes of level, as if they were huge basins of water tipped, by the hand of a giant. In the Cas-" plan a.difference of level between the two aides of the sea amounting to 12 feet has been noted during the,preva­ lence of a heavy vlnd. In Lake Erie a difference of level of 15.feet has*oc­ curred In similar circumstances. An­ alogous observations have beeu made on..other lakes and in the Baltic sea.

The rynge be­ taken* the true love, as t have SCyd; the broth betokens the clcnnesse In herte and chastjtye that she oweth to have; the gariond betokena the glad- wme and tha dygnjtye. of the sacra- teent of wedlock.” VM Y ^sCm ilsc^ s e im n n r n m f 1' i' ll’ !'!*1'' l ‘ li I * . * J WWf Every Christmas brings Its camisoles and this year’s are the daintiest ever.
