Heroic -
Treatment
By F. TOWNSEND SMITH
My friend Rogers was forty years
old and a bachelor. Ho had no taste
for society, and his life was solitary in I
the extreme.
I had been to his room occasionally,
and his landlady knew fny name. One
day Sogers hud worked himself up to
such u condition that she feared he
was going to commit suicide. They
hunted my name in the telephone reg
ister and called me up to .gay that I
she wished I would come round and j
trtfce charge of him. I went to his (
room and found him walking the floor 1
with a desperate look in his eye. I ;
took him out with me for dinner, after |
which we went to the theater, and he
spent the night in my rooms. Before ■
going to bed I said to him:
"Itogers, the thing for you to do is to
get married."
"Who would marry me?"
"I know several young women who
would be glad to get you. I'll Intro- j
dik-e you to the one that 1 think would
be the most likely to suit you If you !
like."
"Anything to relieve me of myself." i
The young person to whom I intro- |
duced Rogers was twenty-seven years j
old. Not having thus far fulfilled the I
condition for which she was made—a I
wife and mother—she was beginning to ;
get dissatisfied with herself nnd those I
about her. I told her of Rogers' case, i
nnd she confessed that it was much i
like her own. She, too, said "any
thing but the life of an old maid." It j
was understood when 1 brought them I
together that it was for the purpose of j
matrimony, and they didn't preteud to 1
what ihey did not feel—that they were ■
In that delirium commonly called love ,
They made shurt work of the prellmi- j
nerles and, being very much pleased
with each other, became engaged and !
were married.
I think their honeymoon was as hap
py as It is with married couples, usu
ally. Roth seemed to have taken
laughing gas. There was no attention
too great or too trivial for Itogors to
pay his wife, and she seemed disposed
to suffer any inconvenience rather than
put him to the slightest discomfort
I called on them soon after their
ojii rnage. iupd 1 am not see lueui
again for six months. I met Itogers
and. grasping him by the hand, said:
"IIow are you, old manV IIow goes
married life?"
"Oh, married life is well enough, 1
suppose!"
"Well enough? Why, I thought at
fl'st you considered It delightful."
"That was In the beginning, when
wo hadn't really settled down to the !
business of married life. 1 find double
harness pretty hard to work Iti some
times."
"Have any company?"
"All we want."
"Well. I'm coming round to see you
pretty soon."
When I called Rogers had been de
tained at Jiyslness, and 1 was enter
tained by his wife. Being an old
friend of mine. I did not hesitate to
lsk her how married life suited her.
"Oh, 1 don't suppose," she said, "that j
Ril is any harder to live with than
must men!"
"lie Isn't somber, is he?"
"Oh. no; ho is cheerful enough, but
1 surprise him every now and then by
not being what he has always sup
posed a woman to be, and If all men
ire what he is sometimes they must
be"—
While we were talking in cnme Ed.
He saw by his wife's expression that
she bail been pouring her troubles Into
uiy ear. and he didn't like It He sat
iowu with u very ugly look oil his
face.
"Well." he said to me. "I suppose
she's been making me out a pretty
hard nut"
the best I could for you two in bring
ing you together. If you want to quar
rel 1 would prefer that you lecve we
oat"
"Who's drawing you In?" nsked the
husband, with a snarl:
"lie's drawn himself In," snapped
the wife. "He tried to pump you
when he met you the other day. then
came around here to pump me."
"Pump you! What Interest have 1
In whether you get on or don't get on
togetlwr? I bid you both good even
ing."
I seized my hat and got out of the
house as quickly as I could, followed
by more caustic remarks from both
of them and making to myself more
caustic remarks still.
"What a fool I was to try to do any
thing with a bachelor and an incipient
old maid! One might as well try to
make a crooked tree grow straight.
Catch me trying to help any one that
way again."
When we do a kindness we don't
know whether It will turn out sucU.or
an Injury. I thought I knew that In
this case I had done the latter. But 1
was mistaken. The two needed heroic
measures to bring them together and
heroic measures to get them fused.
After the heyday of wedlock hau pass
ed they needed a blowpipe. I was that
blowpipe. When they both turned and
fought me they found a common vent
for their irritation, nnd its flow upon
each other was directed in another
channel.
Rogers came to see me, apologized
'<ir himself nnd his wife and begped
mo to dine with them the next Sun
fl'iy. I went, and we have been excel
lent friends ever since.

THE IMAGE IN
THE MIRROR
A Story For Alihallow Eve
By ADELAIDE BURNHAM
Kdward Dix was a sportsman from
tbe crown of his head to tbe tip of his
great toe. One October evening, when
he had been hunting ill the woods all
day. he came to a little lake nestling
among the hills, its surface covered
with fallen leaves of every color from
the lightest yellow hue to the deepest
crimson. And looking down n valley
he saw a landscape that tilled him with
delight.
"What a place for n summer cot
tage!" be exclaimed. "Some day I'm
going to build one here."
And he did. Now, I'm going to tell
you how he caiue to carry out what
was but a thought.
I.ooking to his right, he saw tbe deep
red of a brick chimney against brown
limbs of trees. He knew that where
there was a chimney there must be
a house and started to go and make
an Investigation. lie came upon a
very pretty cottage, with a broad piaz
za around it. a Queen Anne roof and
dainty windows.
"And I'ui jingcd if I don't build a
match to that." he added to his first
assertion.
There was not a living thing in or
near the cottage, and it was evident
that it was Intended only for summer
use. Mr. Dix went lip on the piazza
and looked Into the living room
through a window. The apartment
contained cottage furniture, but the
chief attraction was a large fireplace.
"I've a good uiind to sleep there to
night." he said to himself and tried the
window to see if It wore securely lock
ed. It was. but Mr. Dix hunted for a
place of Ingress as energetically as he
had hunted for game and found one by
getting on the piazza roof—a window
not well secured. Going downstairs,
be opened a door from the inside, ad
mitting him to tbe wood house, and In
a few minutes had a tire blazing on the
hearth. Then he settled himself down
in an easy chair before it, and. look
ing at his reflection In a mirror on tbe
mantel opposite him. he remarked:
"Your comfort is only equaled by
yuur usMinuiri*.
Aud straightway he fell asleep.
Now. it happened that this was
Halloween. and n party of girls were
coming to spend It at this very cot
tage. Flora Stebbins. a daughter of
the owner, was the hostess, and the
others were her guests. Mr. Dix went
to sleep about dark, which comes early
at the last of October, and the young
ladies arrived about 8 o'clock.
"My goodness gracious!" exclaimed
Miss Stebbins "There's some kind of
a light inside. It looks as if theie
were n tire on the hearth. Wait a mio
ute till I reconnoiter." She went to a
window aud saw the slumbering Mr.
Dix sitting before a (ire that was still
blazing merrily. "She beckoned to the
others. They came and saw the same
sight. -
"i;iris." snid Flora, "(here Is the be&t
chance to celebrate Allhallow eve 1
ever heard of. l<et one of us go In
stealthily, make Just enough sound to
waken him so that he'll see her reflec
tion in the mirror on the mantel and
get away before he can catch her."
The Idea was eagerly caught upon,
and Flora was urged to play the part
The others returned to the vehicle that
had brought them and waited for the
play .to be over and her to join them
in a retreat.
Mr. His was awakened by the fall
ing of some article behind him and.
opening his eyes, saw a girl's farj re
flected in a mirror before l;!m. But
only for an Instant. If he had 'een
wide awake he would doubtless have
arisen from his chair Immediately and
made an investigation. As it w;.s. he
delayed Just long enough to allow the
conspirators to make good their es
cape. lie am not even ueur i. . suuuu
of wheels, for the carriage had gone
far enough to prevent that. Flora get
tins into it near the gate.
When Mr. i>ix got fairly around he
did what lie would have been expected
to do. He went to the hall and out
through the front door. lie encoun
tered nothing, and all he heard was a
distant sound of laughter, but so dis
tant that he was not sure whether It
was or was not laughter. lie was
very much puzzled.
.Mr. Dix had a job of hunting on his
hands far different from following up
jauie. He was a methodical chap and
began by learning to whom the cottage
belonged. Then he went to the winter
residence of Its owner ostensibly to
peddle books. Oe could not be driven
uway until he had caught sight of
Flora Stebbins. whom he at once recog
nized as the reality of the image he
had seen in the mirror on Allhnllow
eve. She recognized him, but pretend
ed Ignorance o( him.
"You are my fate." he said. "I saw
your face in a mirror on what I have
since learned was Ailhallow eve. It
will be useless for you to attempt to
escape the husband that"—
"Nonsense!" she exclaimed, blushing
very red. "it was you who saw my face
in the glass, not I who saw yours. All
hallow eve does not count for men."
But It did count, for then and there,
or rather on Ailhallow eve. commenced
a courtship which ended. If it ended at
nil, with marriage. And when It be
came evident that the Dix family need
ed a summer cottage of their own Ed
ward Dix built an exact replica of the
one owned by his father-tn-law. But
one article of furniture that was in
the latter has been removed to the
former—the looking glass in which Mr.
Dlx's fate was revealed to blm.

No Use For Fresh Air.
Oid time doctors bad no faith In the
virtues of fresli air. Andrew Boorde
In his "Compendyous Itegyment or
Dietary of Helth," published 1542,
writes: "To bedwnrd and also In the
morning use to have a lire in your
chamber, to waste and consume evil
vapours within the chamber, for the
breath of man may putrify the air
within the chamber. In the night let
the wiudows of your house, specially
of your chamber, be closed, let your
nightcap be of scarlet, and this, I do
advertise you. to cause to be made a
good thick quilt of cotton, or else of
pure flocks or of clean wool, and let
the covering of it he of white fustian,
and lay it on the feather bed that you
do lie on."—London Chronicle.
Dead Easy.
Two guests missed the first courses
of a dinner at a suburban home, which
had been arranged partly In their
honor. Hand bags had been searched,
distant homes called on the telephone
for information, much nerve energy
had been expended, all because the
key to the trunk containing the neces
sary dinner raiment could not be
found. Finally a locksmith from the
town four miles away came by auto
mobile, was led to the trunk, and in
less than a minute the lid was turned
back.
"Good work," said the maid.
"Dead easy," said the locksmith; "the
thing wasn't locked at ail."—New York
Tribune.
Up to Date Milkman. ^
"What are you giving your cows now
in the way of galaotagogues?" asked
the Irvington profeysor of the milk
man.
"Oh." said the milkman, who has
Just been graduated from Purdue and
Is not to be stumped by any Butler
college pedagogue, "their sustenance Is
wholly of vegetable origin, rich In
chloropbyl and opulent in butyraceous
qualities."
"A pint if you please," said the pro
fessor.
"Git up." said the milkman.—Indian-1

The Speaker.
It was his power of protesting that
in the first place gave the speaker of
the British house of commons his
name. For the early members "were
not great at oratory and soon realized
the desirability of choosing a spokes
man with a ready tongue and the cour
age to argue with the king. Hence
came the title of "speaker," which was
Brst given to Sir Thomas Hungerford
In 1370.
Fairies.
How many kinds of fairy were
there? A good many. For an elf dif

confounded with a pixy. Then in ad

MOTHER LOVE.
All mo:hers arc rich when they
love their children. There are no
poor mothers, no ugly ones, no old

when they seem mos', sad it needs
but a kiss which they receive cr
