Quite Miteiiiiilv tliil we prtmtmiiei our vows, uinl wlu'ii ho plaeecl the plain o-oUt bainl. tin- wedding rinir. upon my tinker. I seemed to think of the words: "I'or In-tter, for worse." in a diiTerent, far more serious way than I had ever tlone before. We wore loth youiijr, ami, ltxilcin),' through the rose-colorel f,'las.so we then wore, we haw the future only as a llower-strewn path. For :t time, reality seemed to verify our fancies, but by and by there- came that inevitable lirst quarrel, and we learned that the roses were not en tirely free from thorns. That first domestic eruption was followed by others of vary in; importance, and then, two years after our weildin; tiny, the final disagreement came. As I look back upon it all now. I can see l.ow foolish we lxith were, and how easily it could have liecn avoided. Hut with the waywardness anil indiscretion of yottnj people, we refused to lie reasonable, but anrrily argued and accused each other of various misdemeanors. The more we talked the preater our rievances grew, until at length there were things involved of which I cannot tell, of which I cannot bear even to think. And so we parted. Rex went to an eastern city to enjra.ife in bu.-.iness there, and 1 stayed in my native town for a time, partially t.u ! rtltiLT myself lay writing at my own home, for I was stnldxirn, and hud angrily reiusetl to accept any as:r,t:iuce from my husband. At lat I wr.te to a friend of iriaie, who livetl in another part of the state, and fully explained to her my circumstan ces. Site bade nv come to her at once, and I made pro pa rat ions to do so, but on the eve of my departure I learnrtl that I had liot Money to tak-" ill'' on the journey. I kiiew not what to do. for there was no one of wlum I eoiild )or row it just then, and I had nothinir to sell, fi ir tltiriiir the lat few month I hail tlisposetl of everything that I could possibly do without. Then 1 looked at my netiilinj rinef. The thotie'lit (f si lliiii that hail never In-fore entered my mind, ami at first I coil Id not tolerate the idea: but stem neeossity finally ovorjx e.vere.l all senti mental objections to the plan, and I de xsited it with a pa wu broker for thirty days, ami received the amount of money reipiin d to pay my passage. lie fore the thirty tlays had e'ajsed I sent the 11101103- and a ticket to :i frit lid at my old home, askini him to rt deem the rino; for me. Immediately upon the receipt of my letter he v. rote to me, saying that he would tlo so within a few days, whenever his work should call 1 1 1 11 into that part of the city. How many times I asked him during the next few months either to fot my rine? and send it to me, or to return the money and ticket, I tlo not l:inw, but nil my communications were unan swered for a lonr time. At last he answered, saying: "I send you the money ami ticket for which you ask." That was all. There was not a word of explanation as to why he had re fused to tlo as lie h:id promised, and, moreover, the money was not forth comirior. although the ticket was intact. I asked him if he had forgotten to en close the money, and lie replied that he knew well enoutrh that I had received it antl that it was useless to try to de ceive him, for lie was not so foolish that he could not easily understand my scheme, which was to uvt him to send it twice. Such an insulting letter as it was! Whenever 1 think of that man, and his infamous conduct, my bhxxl fairly Ixiils. Ho was an old man, and had always U't'ii a trusted friend of my father, and what could have liccn the cause of his treating me in such a con temptuous manner has always lieeii a mystery to me. At the home of my friend my daugh ter my little Mariaret was born. I knew that I was welcome to make that my home so lonj as I chose to stay, but as Margaret ffrvw older 1 loiiered more anil more to see Rex, for the child was so like her father that I was constantly reminded of him. At last I concluded to fro to the city where he livetl, ami try to find him. anil ask his fortrivoncss. Hut la-fore I went I aefain obtained ixissossiou of my rin' (it had not Ih-cu sold), for I could not War to lose it; it seemed as though it were u part of uiy very self.

"llut how did you happen to find me? " I asketl. later on, when explanations were in order. "Through this, your weddiiiir rinr." he answered, placing it for ti.o second time tn :uy tinker. "Aefnin. with this, let us pledge ourselves to one another, ami never, hereafter, niti.st we f.irifet our vows." "Hut how did you find this?" I queried. "In the strangest way ima'inalle. 1 was walking down Sixth avenue this afternvn when a curioivs, fantastic object in a window attracted my atten tion.

I was a pretty o-.x-nl shot and thou-ht it wou'ol 1k no trick at all to kill a lx-ar with the Mississippi rilie that I brodrht home from the Mexican war. "One day I went out villi a man named Willis, who was a f.x.l hunter, ami in the hills back of Sonora we found plenty of lx-ar sioiis. In fact we could fret through the thick brush and chaiarrol onl- on the trails made by ln-ars, and we had t fro carefully for fear t.f running ui)n a frizzly at clo-e quarters. Although it wa evident that we were in a lx-ar country, we hadn't seen anything to sh.x.t at when we i-nit-i-;'.-il from the brush into atl ojx n space alxuit fifty yards in diameter. Willis said he was sure that liears were close around 11--, if wc could only s.f them, and I proposed to climb :, tree on the other side of t he clearing- mid jret a view .f the surroumiini thickets. If I should Ix-ars I was to make a noise and iry to scare thcin out of their hid- lVl pi ICes.

II.' l.xiketl much larovr and ni'iierthan I had expected, and it struck i:n- that the j-oiH-r Ciini,- for mo was to ;rot iiito that tree lie fore shtHtiti. I tfot to the tree all ri--l:t enouffh. but foutid llia.t I couldn't climb it an I take my rili' with me. Willi.-, saw my dilfi eui'y and shout.-.! to ui- that I couldn't make it. and so 1 abandoned the at tempt ami ran back toward him. "The lx-ar wis following 111c, and Willis st ark d back into the brush. I called to him not to do that, but t stand in the open and wait for me. He halted, antl when I r't al intrside we lxitli turned ami raised our ritlos. When the bear saw that we were standing-our frrouml. he st.pix)d. looked jt us a mo ment ami then turned and shi: filed back into the brush, lie was so bi:f and l.xiketl so formidable that we conclude! to U-t him .'0 unmolested, rather re lieved, in fact, that we were let out of the sera 1 ie so easily. "We made our way back to camp with some caution anil decided that we would ret ii a crowd ami fo ln-ar hunt ing tho next tlay. When we told our adventure ireen w as very hilarious at my expense ami kept remindim me of the brave things I had said coming across the plains. lie was so everlast ingly tickled with his joke that he sat up all that niffht to pny me alut my runniiifr away from a lx-ar. I told him I would show him all the lear he wanted to see the next day antl five him a chance to try his own nerves. "The next tlay five t us went to look for lxar, and we struck them thick le foro we pot U the place where Willis ami I found so much sijrn.
