"You can go ahead. Do all you like,

Then with head proudly erect, she
walked to the door, threw It open and
cried. Just a bit hysterically In spite
of her effort to keep her voice steady:
CHAPTER IX.
Thirty years of one way of living
becomes e habit—so much so that It
Is almost a human Impossibility to
adjust oneself to any other mode of
life. Mery Slade, living year after
year with Dan Slade, Interested In ble
work, watching him rise end succeed,
had come to tbluk of tbe man aa only
another part of herself. With him
out of her life she felt aa If n part
of her own body had vanished with
out which she was restless end III at
ease.
As she set In the little old cottage
where with Dan she started out on
married life, she experienced a feel
ing of detachment as If althar this
wera not tha right place, but some
sort of Inferior substitute, or as though
tbe real and vital part of harself wera
absent.
Tba room waa Just tha earns aa It
waa tha day aba and Dan had walked
out of It to take up tbelr new life In
tbe handsome mansion In town. Not
a thing bad been changed or disturbed.
The asm# crooked hatrack, with her
old knitted shawl dangling on one
hook, hung behind the door. The same
well-worn tidies were carefully pinned
on tbe plush-upholstered chairs. Tbe
same cheep little ornaments that ao
delighted Mary’s simple heart In tbe
old days still cluttered the mantel.
The seme near-crystal crowded tha
sideboard. Tbe tablecloth remained
laid from meal to meal after the time
saving custom of middle-clan fami
lies.
Everything was the same but the
atmosphere of contentment that once
filled tbe room; everything the same
but Mary's happiness In her huabaud'«
love. Outside tbe window tbe rose
bush Dan had helped her to plant still
nodded and blossomed In tha sunshine
that poured In a flood of golden Joy
through tha windows of the ehabby
room and emphasized all the worn
placaa In the comfortable old chair
where evening after evening Dan
Slade had sat reading hla newspaper
and dreaming of the great future ha
waa confident the fates held In store
for him.
In aplta of herself Mary's thoughts
were of her husband—tha first bitter
thoughts she had ever harbored
against the man. She turned sick at
heart at the thought of it. Dan and
herself estranged, hopeleasly at odds,
fighting each other In the divorce
court, fighting even over the posses
sion of the little cottage that had
shared In the first happy flush of their
youthful love and happiness. This, the
only place where she could find peace
In her loneliness, Dan waa trying to
wrest from her. It waa too near to
town, too near to the scene of hla
new activities, he had sent word to
her. She must vacate. She must go
ao far away that hla charge of “ de-
aertlon“ would (tend fire In a court
of law.
Face to face with the fact that Dan
waa trying to drive her even from this
shelter, trying to drive her out into
a strange and alien world, of which
ahe knew nothing and which knew
nothing of her, Mary could scarcely
believe that Dan was so changed —
that even now he would be willing to
snatch away from her the place which
held the memory of happier days.
She had not seen her husband since
the night In Senator Strickland's
library, when the awful knowledge had
been forced home to her that he not
only wanted a permanent separation,
but Insisted on having an absolute di
vorce. Over and over again a thought
came Into the woman's mind. It waa
Intuitive, Instinctive.
Try aa she
might to silence It, she could not put
It out of her thoughts. It was that
ever-recurrent feeling that another
woman had entered Dan'e mind and
heart. Again and again the pushed
It from her, but alwaye and aver the
obsession clung to her like a black
shadow that haunted her during the
day and persisted even In her dreams
at night.
From the kitchen came the voice of
her mald-of-all-work singing an old-
fashioned tune.'
It was one that In her young days
Dan had loved to hear her sing—one
whose sweet melody and melancholy
sentiment be had loved In the days
before his heart had become hard and

problems of finances and political ad

the run of medium and small stock is
well adapted to the trade, and will
prove good sellers. Prices are 75c to
$ 1 .
There Is a good undertone to the lo-
val vegetable market, and the feeling
reaches. Into practically every staple
offered, root stock and hothouse goods
predominating. The demand for local
celery ts good, the newer arrivals of
the golden hearts stimulating the de
mand. Prices are 40060c. Hothouse
leaf lettuce is no longer one of the
leading vegetable staples as In days
gone by. It has been a drug on the
market this season. Crate lots are
selling at 40 050c. The Improved qual
ity of California head stock has prac
tically forced the local offerings off
the market.
There has been a liberal supply of
local cabbage, which Is selling at
steady prices at 75c ©$1.

A subscriber to the Weekly Blade,
living In Pennsylvania, has sent ua an
account of a daybook kept In 1814 by
one of bis forebears, ths keeper of a
general store In Amity Township,
Berks County
From this daybook
one catches a glimpse not only of
what 100 yeara ago It cost the Penn
sylvania citizen to live, but alao n
glimpse of how he lived. For instance,
"with nearly every blit of goods
charged would be attached one gallon
of whisky, rum or brandy, price 25
cents.” Home« were lighted with can
dles “ coating anywhere from 37%
cents to 87% cents a pound."
“ Calico waa 37% cents to 75 centa
per yard.
“ Tea was $1 a pound.
“ In one charge a man bought one-
quarter of veal at 4 centa a pound.
"Eggs were never more than 10
centa per dozen, with 6 to 8 cents the
commoner price.
"Chickens, 12% to 18 cents apiece:
geese, 25 cents to 37% cents apiece.
“ Beef, 3 to 4 cents; wool, 10 centa
to 12% cents per pound; muslin, 50
cents per yard.
"The climax waa reached In one
charge—one bushel of salt. $16.”
We seem to have boxed the com
pass In the matter of tbe costs of liv
ing. One hundred years ago It waa
manufactured goods and commodities
against which transportation coats
were charged which were high, food
that was cheap. Today factory prod-
if things ever will be so comfortably
ucts are cheap, food dear. W e wonder
arranged that foou and manufactured
goods and commodities from far dis
tances will all be cheap.— Toledo

RESINOL WILL SURELY
ST O P THAT ITCHING
What blessed relief! The moment
reslnol ointment touches Itching skin,
tbe Itching stops and healing begins.
That is why doctors have prescribed it
successfully for nineteen years In even
the severest, stubbornest cases of ec
zema, tetter, ringworm, rashes and
other tormenting, unsightly skin-erup
tions. With the help of warm baths
with reslnol soap, reslnol ointment re
stores the skin or scalp to perfect
health and comfort, quickly, easily
and at little cost. At all druggists.—

Topics for French Editors.
The state of the thermometer and
tbe barometer; the quantity of com
necessary to feed a hen for 30 days;
the protection of editors from being
shot by throwing around them the
shield of a close season— the same as
quail or partridges— and the art of
growing giant cucumbers are the only
topica now treated In the editorial col
umns of French newspapers.
The
press censors eliminate everything
else.— Los Angeles Times.

Stamping Egga.
While some dealers may haye found
It beneficial to stamp eggs, for the
purpose of showing the prospective
customer the date on which they were
laid, it is doubtful that the practice
meets with the general approval of
the buyers.
First, the datemaker may or may
not stamp the exact date on which the
eggs were laid. The stamp may be
put on a number of days after the lay
ing, when tlie eggs are received by the
dealer, or it may be put on even a
number of days after the dealer re
ceives the eggs, which means that the
matter of dating the eggs can be ar
ranged to suit the pleasure of the
Sealer.
Secondly, the average buyer who
wishes choice eggs—and most buyers
do— object to having the egga defaced
by a stamp. Eggs thus marked do
not make the appeal to customers that
they are expected to make.
The fact that eggs for sale to pri
vate buyers must appear aa being
fresh and choice, stands clear, and the
beat way in which to attain this appeal
is for the producer and the dealer to
co-operate In placing before the cus
tomers eggs which fill these require
ments. In other words, the eggs
should not be offered unless they are
•uch as are likely to fill the bill.
In order that such eggs may be of
fered. the producer has his duty laid
out for his performance, as well as
the dealer. A great deal depends upon
the manner In which eggs are sorted,
so far as their making appeal Is con
cerned. This ts a simple matter, how
ever, which the producer may attend
to as the eggs come from the nests.
About all there la to It la for those
of uniform color and sixe to be put
together. It Is the producers’ duty,
also, to keep the roosters away from
the laying hens; for It is a well-known
fact that fertile egga will become unfit
for use sooner than unfertile ones will.
When the consumer has done his
duty, so far as he can. to place good,
wholesome eggs on the market, it la
the dealers’ duty to keep them as near
ly to as possible until sold; and If they
are not sold before losing these quali
ties he has no right to sell them at
all. The producer must protect both
the consumer and the dealer by not
holding eggs long before placing them
with the dealer.— Fresno Herald.
