THE YRIDUTC
"fc- jjly I.. y
WIDOW DARBY'S
VALENTINE
l1 iH K widow Darby,
r ari -'fair, plump and look
ing far younger than
her 45 years, bad rid-
v den into town witn
t Jared Kent because
'.her horse had lamed
and Jared "happened
to be going in," and
had asked the widow
to ride with him.
Jared was what some
of the people of tbe
nelzhborhood called a
"regular born old bach." He had flouted
and scorned womanhind moat of the fifty
years of his life, and bad openly set forth
hi conviction that men were "better off
without 'em than with 'em," particularly
when it come to "marrying of 'em." He
had held to this conviction so long and
had proclaimed it so boldly and so con
stantly that all of the mateh-makers Jn
the rural neighborhood in which be lived
had given him up a hopeless case beyond
the pale of their schemes for making, a
benedict of him.
Jared was not, like most avowed women
haters, a crabbed, cross-grained, sneering
ly cynical man, which made his celibacy
all the more unpardonable in the eyes of
the match-makers.
"He'd make a real good husband if he'd
try." they said. "Then he has the nicest j
farm in the neighborhood, with one of
the best houses on it and money out at in
terest, although he'a not a bit mean and
stingy. He'll do his full share always for
a neighbor in distress, it tsnt because
he'a too stingy to support her that Jared
doesn't get him a wife."
It waa a clear, crisp morning In Febru
ary when Jared rode to the village with
the widow Darby seated beside bim in
his neat little cutter. The sleighing was
tine and the air keen and exhilarating. It
gave the widow's plump cheeks a beauti
ful crimson glow and made ber black eyes
sparkle. She was in high spirits and her
laugh rang out frequently as merry and
rippling aa the laugh of a child.
Bat then the widow Darby was prover
bially cheery. She had suffered keenly
the loss of her husband and both of ber
children, but time had softened her grief,
and she was too wise to spend ber life
In gloom and grief over the 1ms of those
who were beyond all care and sorrow,
She had a comfortable little home and a
few acres of land adjoining Jared Kent'
She had known Jared all of her life, but
not once had she thought of him ss a
Dossible successor to Joel Darby.
"Jared will never marry any one," she
had said. "He Isn't of a marrying dispo
sition. Borne men are that way. It's all
they lack to make 'em what God intended
they should be. S(jr husband and I used
to talk Jared over a good deal, and we did
our full share to get him settled for life
with a good wife. We used to invite lota
of nice girls, young and elderly both, to
our house and then have Jared come over
to tea and to play croquet with him. He d
be nice and pleasant and all that, but he
never came any waya near falling Into
any of the traps we set for him. We
- thnntrht nnctt that he did take a kind nf

over Shelby way,.wno was visiting ns.
She'd of. made him an awful good wife,
and I sung her praises ail the time; but
nothing came of it.
"It's an elegant morning, isn't It?" ssid
Jared, as he and the widow flew along
over the hills and through long lanes in
which the snow was drifted almost to the
top rails of the fences.
"Oh, it's lovely!" replied the widow. "1
like snow."
"So do I. You got much to do in town?"
"No; I'll be through with ail of my er
rands in an hour. I can let something go
If you don t want to stay in town thst
long."
"Oh, that'll be none too long for me.
Where shall I meet you?"
"I'll be at Smith & Hanscom's dry goods
store, any time you say." -
"We'll call it 11 o'clock, then."
It waa three minutes after 11 when
Jared drove up to the appointed place of
meeting. The widow had stepped into
the sleigh and he was tucking tbe robes In
around ber when she said:
"There, Jared, I'm just like other wom
en; I've forgotten something."
"Whst is itr ,
"I forgot to go around to the postofflce.
I know that there's nothing there for me,
becsuse one of the Stone boys brought my
mail out last night, and there's no mail
trains in until noon; but poor old Jane
Carr came over just before I left snd
wanted me to be sure and see If there was
a letter for her. Her daughter is very
sick out West, snd she hasn't bad a letter
for a week, and she's half wild. I couldn't
bear to tell her I'd forgotten to go to the
office."
"I'll drive 'round that way," said Jared.
"It won't be three blocks out of the way."
Two or three boys stood idling in front
of the postofflce and Jared said to one of
them he chanced to know: , .
"Say, Jiinmie, run into tbe office and see
If there's any letter for Mrs. Jane Carr.
You needn't ask for me, for I've been
around and got my mail." '
"Yon might look in box 184," said Mrs.
Darby. "Mebbe there's a drop letter for
me." '
The boy came out a moment later with
a very large square white envelope in one
hand and a small blue envelope in tbe
other. He grinned as he handed them to
, Mrs. Darby. She glanced at the blue en-
velope and said joyfully:
I "O here's a letter for Jane, and it's from
her dsugliter, I know by the postmark.
How glad Jane will be! And here well,
. I declare!" , '

looked at the big white, embossed envel
ope. The boy had told the truth when he
had gone back to his comrades and said
with a titters
"She'a got a valentine!"
"Who in the laBd ever sent me that
thing?' said Mrs. Darby, holding the en
velope out at arm's length. "I didn't even
know it was Valentine's day. It it isn't
the greatest idea that I should get val
entine!" "1 don't know why you shouldn't," said
Jared.
"Oh, because I but I guess some child
sent if . .
"Maybe not."
"No one else could have had so little
gumption!" said the widow with another
laugh. "Maybe there's one of these comic
valentines inside of it soma ridiculous
thiug about a widow likely." -"Why
don't you open it and see?"
"I will."
She burst into another laugh aa she
drew forth a dainty creation of lace paper.
tinsel and bright colored embossed pic
tures.
"How perfectly ridiculous!" she said.
"The idea, of any one being ninny enough
to send an old woman like me a thing like
that!" -"You're
not an old woman."
"I'm forty-fiver
"WelL I'm older than that, and I don't
call myself an old man. Many a woman
around here would be glad to get a val
entiue like that if the sender really meant
it."
"Tee. and If yon were the sender."
"I'm not vain enough to think that and
not foolish enough to say it if I did think
it"
"No. I don't think thst you are, Jared.
But I wonder who could have sent me

dentlv disguised, snd O here is some
thing inside! Let's see what it says.
" T wilt tboa be my valentine
Forever and forever s ye.
And wilt thou take this heart of mine,
And glre me thine to-day?" "
There waa another verse, but before she
had read it, the widow Darby cried oat:
"Jared Kent, that's your handwriting and
you need not try to deny it!"
"I'm not trying to deny it. You'll find
my name signed in full to tbe next verse
on the other page." This waa the next
verse:
"If "yes" my answer Is to be.
My heart with joy will All,
If 'no,' I yet shall be your friend
And I shall love you still."
They had reached the outskirts of the
(own now. Jared brought the horse to a
standstill and said:
"Is it yes or no, Lucy?"
She looked at him.with shining eyes and
laughing face for a moment. Then she
laid one of her mittened banda on the
sleeve of the great fur coat he wore and
ssid: -
"I think it is yes, Jared."
He turned bia horse's bead toward tbe
town.
"Where are you going?" she asked.
"Back to the minister's. It's Valentine's
day, you know, and if yon are to be my
valentine, 1 want you to-day.""-
An hour later they stopped st Jane
Carr's gate. She came slurrying out for
her letter with ber apron over her head.
"I brought you a letter, Jane, and I got
a valentine," said Lucy, holding up tbe
big wbite envelope.
"I got one also," said Jared, as he put

WANTED HIS HALF OF THE BERTH
A Good Btory Geo. M. Pnllaaaa Loved
to Tell of Lincoln.
There was one story of his career that
the late George M. Pullman of sleeping
car fame used to tell with manifest de
light. It was aa follows:
"One night going out of Chicago, a long,
lean, ugly man. with a wart on hia cheek,
came into tbe depot. He paid Ueorge 1
Pullman GO cents, and a half berth waa
assigned him. Then he took off hia coat
and vest and hung tbem up, and they fit
ted the peg about as well as they fitted
him. Then he kicked off his boots, which
were of surprising length, turned into the
berth, and, having an easy conscience,
waa sleeping like a healthy baby before
the car left the depot. Along came an'
other passenger and paid his 60 cents. In
two minutes he waa back at George Pull
man. "There's a man In that berth of mine,"
said he, hotly, "and he'a about ten feet
high. How am I going to sleep there.
I d like to know? Go and look at him.
In went Pullman mad, too. The tall.
lank man's knees were under his chin, his
arms were stretched across tbe bed and
hia feet were stored comfortably for him,
Pullman shook him until he awoke, and
then told him if he wanted the whole
berth he would have to pay $1.
"My dear air, said tbe tall man, "a
contract is a contract. I hare paid you
60 cents for half this berth, and as you
see, I'm occupying it. There's the other
half," pointing to a strip about six inches
wide. "Sell that and don't disturb me
again." And, so saying, the man with a
wart on his face went to sleep again. He
waa Abraham Lincoln.
James Farton's Prediction.
In 182, James Parton, tbe celebrated
biographical writer, made the following
prediction In regard to Abraham Lincoln:
History will say of Mr. Lincoln that no
man of a more genial temperament, a
more kindly nature, ever tenanted the
White House; that be gave all his time.
his thoughts, his energies, to tbe dis
charge of duties of unprecedented magni
tude and urgency; that, hating no man.
he steadfastly endeavored to win the con
fidence and love of all the loyal and pat
riotic, and that, in spite of four chequered
years of such responsibility and anxiety
as has seldom fallen to the lot of man.
he bore away from tbe Capitol tbe sunny
temper and blithe frankness of bis boy
hood, returning to mingle with bis old
neighbors as one with them in heart and
in manner, in retirement aa in power
happy specimen of the men whom Liberty
snd Democracy train In the log cabin and
by the rudest hearth to guide the counsels
of the Republic and influence the destinies
of the people.
Lincoln Wben a Boy.
An exhibition of Lincoln's practical hu
manity occurred while a boy. One even
ing, while returning from a "raising" with
a number of companions, he discovered a
straying horse, with, saddle and bridle
upon bim. The horse was recognized aa
belonging to a well-known drunkard, and
it was suspected that the owner was not
far off. The fellow waa found In a per
fectly helpless condition upon the cold
ground. Lincoln's companions intended
to leave bim to his fate, but young Lin
coln would not bear of it. At his demand.
the miserable man was lifted to bis shoul
ders, and he actually carried him eighty
rods to the nearest house. He then sent
word to his fnthcr that be would not be
back that night. He nursed the man un
til morning, and believed that be had sav
ed his life.
The Ship of State.
Gen. John A. Logan related the follow
ing: "On the morning of President Lin
coln's arrival in Washington I called upon
him at Willard s Hotel, in company with
Mr. Lovejoy of Illinois. We both nrged
on the new President the necessity of a
firm, vigorous policy. He listened to tbe
end and then said very seriously, but
cheerfully, 'As the country has placed me
at the helm of the ship I'll try to steer her
through.' "
