I Rictmrd Marston, the young Amer ica seated within, translated to him ttt, "My soul, my life, I love you," tod' flung aside his cigarette In a sud den gesture of despair. "My soul, my !lfe, I love you! Truly, of what use bli daring plunge Into the mountain .umber camp of El Oro, this exile from friends and family In persistent guest of forgetfulnessT Of what use when the forgetting is as far distant, bow, Id the continual round of tedious duties, the overseeing of Indian gangs and balancing of numberless accounts, yj it was in the first days?" The long hours of morning toll brought, for a time, detachment and Rental relaxation, but when evening game with its crying demand for (physical rest, its breathing of wind In the oak trees and glittering of first Stars above the shadowy pines. Mars ion as Invariably overwhelmed with eld memories, and a slender girl, red cloaked, her hood drawn over her soft brown hair, stood' once more before fclm, gazing wistfully outward through tier tear-dimmed eyes. ' Unnumbered times, had the bitterness of that part ing been renewed. "My soul, my life, I love, you!" Harston tilted his chair legs back against the crude, unfinished boards, and stared meditatively out through the open window. Hla glance Ignored the miserable out-lying huts of the .laboring half-breeds, passed along the narrow dirt road, cut and seamed with the continual repassing of the heavy loads, and lingered above on the hill tide, where, its lights gleaming "My Soul, My Life, I Love You." rightly through the intervening trees, tood the comparatively princely cot tage of his friend and employer, Lewis Tembertnn, promoter and engineer. Several day ago Lewis Pemberton bad designed to confide to bis atten dant corps a fact that bad long since been suggestted by the radiant shin ing of bis eyea and his frequent out bursts of gay, Impulsive laughter that the young lady, back home, bad Anally come to a favorable decision, ud was now expected, accompanied by her mother and several friends, to pend a month or so in tbe crude but hospitable shelter of her fiance's cot tage. Pemberton bad selected three of the boys to act as guides and gen eral cavaliers to the ladles during off lours Newton, Jim Howard and young Dick Marston. Newton and Howard had jumped at the Invitation but Dick had shaken lils head with finality, pleading that lie was too busy. Pemberton had re- SUed. "Walt till you see the girls, my boy," and had laughed Immoderately. , What pleasure could companion ship with any girl be since Natalie fad goneT At best these friends of (Pemborton's betrothed would be col mrkua, insipid creatures, or the usual forward type of chattering girls. Na 'We, with her deep, grave eyes, her tactful understanding, her unfailing ranathy, bad spoiled him for tbe frivolous banter of the girls whom iNewton and Jlra Howard were now finding so enchanting In their first en thusiastic greetings at Pemberton' 'festive little cottage on tbe hillside. To Marston, accompanied by hla loneliness and sorrow, occasional peals J girlish 'laughter mingled with jbrolen snatches of conversation and song, softened by the distance and the trees, floated downward through the night ' He closed his eyes in hope less surrender to homesick, longing depression. And, even now, in the midst of gloom, seared and over shadowed by the contrasting gayety above, his thoughts turned to Natalie and the days long past. How sweet she had been! How brave! How loyal to her cross-grained old father, who, in a burst of un governable rage, had forbidden Mar ston the house and further communi cation with bis only daughter! It was on that never-to-be-forgotten night of humiliation and dismay that Natalie had explained, out under tbe stars of the great suburban estate. "You see, Dick, he's very old, and mother left him to me when she died. 'Always think first of your father,' she said, and so, Dick dear, you bad better, go away somewhere, for I can't possibly marry you. Go away some where and forget." He bad gone away, to the ends ot the earth, it had seemed. At first, be bad received unselfish little letters from his far-away sweetheart, but soon these were entirely dropped, and his only news of her was gleaned from the month-old newspapers from home. But, in spite of seeming indifference on her part, and persistent endeavor on bis, he had in no way followed out the Injunction of the piteous, pleading girl: "Dick, please, Dick, forget" Not even, after a long period ol neglect on the part of the social sec tion, when he had perceived this glar ing headline, final and complete, "Broker's Daughter Betrothed Miss Vernon to Wed Son of British Peer," had he denounced the loved one. Natalie, Natalie. Without, the wind whispered tender things to the towering pines, and tbe stars still shone, unheeding and unmindful of bis hurt. Only the guitar, sounding mellow and deep toned, seemed In sympathy with the throbbing tyrant, bound fast within his breast. "My heart, my soul, I love you." For a long time he sat there, his eyes closed, oblivious to his surround ings. So completely had he been swept onward by the ever-Increasing current of his deep imaginings, that when he opened his eyes again, it seemed that a strangely familiar fig ure stood framed within the doorway. The rising moon from without en haloed her soft brown hair, a heavy cloak enfolded her; her bands reached outward, and even In the shadows, he saw the questioning wonder of her eyes. She stepped forward, trembling and half afraid. "Dick, you haven't for gotten? I came with Ellen Du Val, Lewis Pemberton's fiancee. Lewis knew from the beginning. He told me to find you here." The boy's chair legs were still tilt ed carelessly against the wall, his mud-caked boots twisted rakishly about them, bis hands thrust deep into his pockets. Though he had been lounging thus for tbe last hour in meditative abandon of despair, he did not feel the cramped unnaturalness of his position, nor the growing ache across the muscles of his back, so for getful had he been of bis physical self in the pain of despondency. Even now, confronted by the en trancing little figure, be did not move a muscle, so assured was he that it was but tbe embodiment of his dreams before him. Surely, If he quivered a fraction of an inch, the silvery shim mering of the moon-crowned bead would vanish utterly into the fathom less nowhere whence it had so sud denly arisen Dreams are good. He would go on dreaming. "Dick, you don't understand. Tou see father father " The voice fal tered, then continued brokenly. "Father died and there Is no one to care now. I thought that you might still want me, Dick, and so I came." He managed to stammer, as one addressing a pleasantly shimmering but utterly impractical delusion. "Tbe Englishman!" She laughed, "Dick, foolish Dick, It was only a rumor! Surely you never believed!" ' He stood then, bis arms stretched outward in a great longing for pos session, and she found ber way to them. Without a voice was, raised, sweet toned, melodious, "My soul, my life, I love you." New Wrinkles. An Irishman desired to become nat uralized, and after tbe papers were signed the judge turned to him. "Now. Dennis," he said, "you" can vote."

OTHER WOMEN'S HUSBANDS. !! the Interesting and Delightful Man 1 Are Married, According te Mag-, azine Writer. The Interesting and delightful men ara all married, writes Phlllppa Ly aan. In the Smart Set. I found that t years ago, about tbe same time I discovered that none of the eligible 'oen ot my acquaintance would ever do aa husbands. U has made me wonder If good hus bands are born and not made, , or hbether It 1 tbe refining Influence of "other women". In tbelr lives that bat made them so adorable. ' Very Wkely that Is it or else they bad good mothers, who began their education tore they were boru. Or Is It I fnrink from saying It Is It fhat we Poaen have become Imbued with that urns tbirtt for the unattainable that Froui time Immemorial baa been the pdolng of men. Are the good old days. rotm a husband and wife bad no fought for anyone on ear lb but one another, really gone and is everyone discontented and groaning under his matrimonial chains and fetters? Is tbe real reason why we attract or are at tracted by other women's husbands that we are unattainable or forbidden? It cannot be true! There must be something less petty than the crying of the child for tbe moon behind It all . There are bachelor down town, too, many 'of them. But somehow, those whom I meet seem crude and unin formed In comparison with tbe "other women's husbands," Immature and un tactful. Back In my little country village I used to assist the Plymouth Rock ben with the batching ot ber chicks, picking off little bit of shell from the round balls ot feathers and helping In my clumsy way that the chick might get its bearings. I am always wanting, figuratively, to poke off a bit of shell lere and there from the bachelors ot my acquaintance and watch them cat tbelr eyes open- Hints For Hostess mm Mm TIMELY SUGGESTIONS for Those Planning Seasonable Entertainments For Hallowe'en, From the voluminous correspondence which has poured into the office re garding "Hallowe'en" It would seem that every reader, old and young, rich or poor, intended to celebrate on this most fascinating festival day. Madame Merrl sincerely hopes that there has been something In the departments to suit the needs of all. Here Is a very simple method of de termining one's future partner In life. It Is called the "yarn" test: At tbe stroke of midnight the girls must all go upstairs, the men remain ing in the hall below. Then each maid In turn drops a ball of light yarn over tbe banisters. Of course, she must hold tightly to one end of the yarn and remain unseen when she throws it down. The men scramble for the ball, and the one who gets It, when the yarn is drawn taut by the girl above, must re ply by giving his true name when the unseen holder says "who holds?" If he recognizes her voice, so much In their favor; if the girl drops the end she holds, she will remain unmarried; If tho yarn breaks she will not marry any ot the men present on this occa sion. This test is always sure to provide a happy ending to the party, and it Is also a means of pairing the guests for refreshments or for any game where it is necessary to choose partners. A Superstition Party. A ladder was put up on the front porch so all would have to pass under It to enter the house. All the black cats in the neighborhood were bor rowed for the occasion and salt was spilled in front of each plate at the table. The party was on Friday, on the thirteenth day of the month, and each guest was asked to tell his favorite superstition. The favors were scissors, knives and tiny purses without the pro verbial "lucky cent." Tne result of this party was that no one died within the year, all remained good friends, and, in spite of the looking glass which the hostess shattered Just before going In the dining room, none had bad luck. This affair could be combined with Hallowe'en stunts and make a Jolly time for tomorrow night or during the week, when fads and fancies pertain ing to the mystical day are in order. Quotations for Hallowe'en. In the way of quotations for place cards tbe hostess has a store of riches from which to draw by consulting Shakespeare or Burns. A few apt sen timents are given: Fortune Is merry, And In this mood will give us anything. This day we fashion Dantlny, our web of Fat we spin. There swims no goose so Bray Rut aooii or late She flmla Some honest gander For her mate. The Iron tongue of midnight hath told twelve. When the Btars shoot, And the owls hoot. And bnts fly In und out, When the fire burns blue. And the candle, too. Witches are about Double, double, toll and trouble; Fire burn and caldron bubble. Fresh dawning Hallow Eve! Sweet, new-old Hallow Eve! For what thou wert, for what thou art Thrice welcome. Hallow Eve! Telling Fortunes. Fortunes may be told by the tradi tional "three bowls." Place three bowls, or saucers (as they are more convenient), on a table, one filled with water, one with, milk and the other empty. Each maiden is then blindfold ed, turned around three times and started In the direction ot the bowls. If she dtps her finger In the water, she will marry a bachelor, if In tbe milk her husband will be a widower, wbllo If her finger touches the empty dish she Is fated to remain single. After each one makes the test the order ot the bowls must be changed so as to prevent those who watch from know ing which Is which. The Egg Fortune. The correspondent who asks for a new Hallowe'en fortune test may find the following suitable for her purpose: For this potent formula for peering Into the future an absolutely new laid egg Is necessary. Drop the white only Into a glass 01 cold water. A clever seer will then foretell the future from the queer shapes which the albumen assumes. MADAME. MERRL Color for Sick Room. Always choose for an Invalid bright ly colored flowers rather than white, which are not. cheerful for the sick room. Two Dainty Gowns THE gown at the left is ot black chantilly lace and liberty. The skirt Is of liberty covered with a tunlo of chantilly which is finished with a wide sash of liberty crossed in the back. Tbe corsage Is of chantilly with large collar of beaded embroidery tin Ished In front by a- knot of liberty. The girdle la ot liberty, fastened with rosettes. Jabot From Handkerchief. The jabot made of bait a handker chief la a sensible and Inexpensive solution of tbe necktie problem for the business woman. Cnt diagonally in half, the hand kerchief, If a plain one, will admit of extra trimming along its already hemstitched edges. Part of tbe finish being provided, there but remains to be added the narrowest of Irish lace edges on one Jabot and a Jabot and delicate clung on tbe other. Pressed Into shape, tbe Jabot la mounted along Its diagonal raw edges upon a small band stitched by ma chine, and by this It Is secured be neath tbe turnover collar. 1 A Graceful Carriage. It U one ot tbe chief ot a woman's charms. It la equal In Importance to beauty, a faot which young debutantes with a natural wish to "make an Impres sion" would do well to remember. Tbe first thing to learn Is bow to bold tbe body correctly when stand ing. Tb body should be erect. Inclined The other gown Is of pale green lib erty and moussellne de sole ot the same shade. The skirt Is of liberty with draped tunic of moussellne de le, caught at tbe side by roses. The corsage Is also of liberty cov ered with a sort of plaited pelerine of tbe moussellne de sole. The chemi sette is of white lace; the girdle, aa designed, Is of liberty, with knot ot roses at the side. slightly forward from the hips up, the weight on the balls of the feet, never on the heels, tbe knee held together, the arms banging naturally at the sides, tbe chin up, tbe chest forward and the abdomen In. . In walking, a good rule for begin ners la to Ignore tbe knee joint, and, carrying the chest uplifted, try to got a good, free swing from the blps. If you can see the bump, bump ot tbe aklrt against tbe knee, the action la still wrong. There Is,, however, a difference be tween swinging the leg and swinging tbe blp alone. The latter produces an ugly walk. Old Fashion Revived. Tbe quaint, old-time handkerchief or glove boxes made ot glass and bound with ribbon, by which the sides and top and bottom were bold In place, are being revived and make ac ceptable gifts for almost any anni versary. The glass can be easily cut Into any site and shape and tbe boxes have a certain advantage over others In that they can be aaU cleaned. INEBRIATE IS DEAD WEIGHT Progress Is Pushing Drunkard to One Side With Relentless Force Old Order Was Kind. If conditions 60, 70 or 80 years ago were considered, the decrease shown in Inebriety would be most striking, one drunkard being found in a thou sand where formerly there were prob ably 20 or 30. In the early days of the republic, whisky was an article of wide consumption, made so because it was the only alcoholic stimulant eas ily obtainable at a distance from the sea coast, and because large quanti ties of grain could be profitably con verted Into liquor In the Interior communities. Economic causes have operated pow erfully to diminish hard drinking. Fif ty or 60 years ago there were thou- sands of communities in which profes sional men could drink to excess with out suffering in public opinion. Now Buc'h offenders would quickly lose their standing, and not only professional ., men, but workers in all the trades, especially those In which machinery Is employed, are obliged to keep sober In order to hold their places. The In ebriate Is a dead weight in modern society, Bays New York Tribune. The older order was more than kind to him, but the newer Is relentless. The younger generation has accurate views on that point, and the proportion of young men handicapping themselves with drinking habits Is becoming small er every year. Young men nowadays are too Intent on other things to be greatly attracted br the cheap lure of dissipation. All progress In the past half cen tury has helped the cause ot modera tion. Legislation has been appealed to both to end the sale of liquors and to regulate it. But economic and ed ucational pressure has, done more than legislation to put a rigorous ban on Inebriety. THEY ARE SOBER ENGINEERS Stringent Rules Against Drunkenness Enforced by Brotherhood One Notable Example. It is safe to say that no other union, club or organization of any sort ap plies quite such heroic treatment to undesirable citizens as the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers. One thing that the brotherhood most strenuously Insists upon is that its members shall not drink. Thirty-five members were expelled for getting drunk In 1909, and their shame was publicly proclaimed In the Journal. Tbe treatment does not stop here by any means. The brotherhood will not risk the lives of its members and the general public by permitting a drink ing man to run an engine, writes Charles Frederick Carter in Century. When a man has been duly convicted of drinking and punished according to the laws of the order, the facts are laid before the proper authorities on the road that employs htm, and hla discharge is demanded. In one no table Instance the engineer of a fast train got drunk during his layover and disgraced himself. He was tried, con victed and expelled, the management was Informed, and the offender's dis charge requested in regular form. But as the engineer had been a good man, the railroad company demurred, say ing that he had not been drunk while on duty. "But," sold the brotherhood, "there Is no telling when a man who gets drunk off duty may take a notion to get drunk on duty, and we do not In tend to take any chances on having a drunken man tearing through the country at sixty miles nn hour, endan gering the lives of others. It Is un fair both to the efployees in your serv ice and to your patrons." The culprit was discharged. 'He can never be employed on a ratVoad again. PASSION FOR GIN DRINKING Historian Lacky Says Liquor Never Ceased to Be Counteracting In fluence on Morals. In his "England in the ISth Cen tury," Lacky, the historian, says that about 1724 the passion for gin drink ing affected the masses and It spread with the rapidity and violence of an epidemic. "Small as Is the place which this fact occupies In English hlstpry, It was probably, If we consider all the consequences which have flowed from it, the most momentous In the eighteenth century Incomparably more so than any event in the purely political or military annals of the country. The fatal passion for drink was at once and Irrevocably plnnted In tbe nation. Physicians declared that in excessive gin drinking a new and terrible source of mortality hnd been opened for the poor. Retailers of gin hung out signs that tbelr cus tomers could be made drunk for a pen ny and dead drunk for two pence, and that straw was provided free." The latter referred to the custom of hav ing straw In tbe cellars on which those who had grown too drunk to get home could Bleep oft their potations. He goes on to say that, "from the early years of tbe 18th century gin drinking has never ceased to be the mnin counteracting Influence to the moral, intellectual and physical bene fits that might be expected from In crease commercial prosperity."

Huston, of Philadelphia, architect of the State Capitol and ol the furnishings and equipment, about which there has been so much Bean dal, was sentenced to Imprisonment for not less than six months nor more than two years in the Eastern Peni tentiary at Philadelphia and a fine Of $600 and costs. He bad been sonvlcted of conspiracy to defraud the State by certifying a false bill for desks for the building. The sen tence was pronounced by Judge Kuu kel, of the Dauphin County Court, who sat In Huston's trial last spring Immediately after the sentence had been recorded counsel for Huston took an appeal to tho Superior Court, sitting in Philadelphia, and asked' that the appeal be made a superse des. Huston was placed In the cus tody of the Sheriff and a bail bond of (25,000 prepared.

The State Supreme Court decided that State Treasurer Charles Fred erick Wright shall hold his position for the full term, which expires in 1913. An election for a successor will take place In 1912. Wright was appointed by Governor Stuart to suc ceed J. A. Stober, elected In 19 09, but who died before qualifying. All the political parties have nominated candidates for State treasurer to be voted for In November, and the de cision will necessitate changes in tickets. The quo warranto bill al leged that no vacancy existed because of the appointment by the Governor. Secretary of the Commonwealth Mc Afee held that Wright was appointed" to serve only until the next .election, when the vacancy could be filled. .by WILBUR D NEDIT Capital Statutes Shipped. George Gray Barnard, the sculp tor, sent word through hla American representative, Clayton Mayo, ot New York, that the heroic marble groups Intended for the main en trance to the Pennsylvania State Capitol have been shipped from France. The Board of Public Grounds and Buildings will make arrangements for the prompt for warding of the statutes to HarriB burg after their arrival lu New York. They will be stored here until the American representatives of the Ital ian firm that Is to .erect them are ready to proceed with tho work, which will probably be within a few-weeks. Workmen's Leugue Wins. Tho Worklngmen's League of Phil adelphia is entitled to nominate a State ticket, and Its certificate nomi nating the regular Republican State candidates is valid, according to s decision handed down by the Dau phin County Court. Representative! of the Keystone party objected to the league's nominations, asserting that It was purely a loral party and there fore not entitled to enter the Stau campaign, and also that the conven tion which mado the nomination was not properly constituted. Despondent Man llungs Himself. The body of Julius Oberman, a naturalized German, was found hang ing from a treo at tho south end of tbe city. He had banged himself some time during the night, tying the rope around a limb and Jumping off Oberman was a carpenter by trade, but ot late had been trying to make a living selling crayon portrait en largements.
