J Torn Kcnerson and Ned Fowler were daring young follows, neither of whom would bo apt to cbooM a commonplace occupation. The were working In a cotton mill on email wage, when Kenereon noticed the wages paid to dlveri and proposed to Fowler, with whom be had become very Intimate, t&nt they should learn bow to dire. They left the mill and, entering the service of a wrecking company, eoon became tne moat daring among the company's dlvera. Meanwhile Keuerson married, and it wae said that the marriage waa a sad blow to Fowler. Hut this was mode up merely from observation, for neither Fowler nor Mrs. Nancy Ken- enton ever said a word to any one as to how either regarded the other, and, as for Nancy, she chose Toin Ken- ervon. However this mar be. the two men imrnme stronger friend each year uutll they were more like broth era than friends. Ned Fowler was of ten a guest at the Kenersons' and a) ways conducted himself toward his friend's wife honorably. t ' Ten years after the two men entered the diving profession Fowler waa still In the service of the wrecking cow pany, while Kenerson engaged blin self for odd Jobs requiring a man of great nerve and experience, for which bo received large pay. One day Fowler received gram: , Torn Is caught undar a big wrirht at the iteil Jacket wreck, come an& uv him. . NANCY.' These' few words brought up a dis tressing picture to the diver, lie saw above water men with anxious faces steadily pumping air, others eagerly watching for any sign from the life line, while perhaps fifty to a hundred feet below lay his friend, hold down under a mass of wreckage, hourly get ting weaker, the signals hourly becom ing fainter. It wss a three hours' Journey by the shortest and quickest route, but when Nod Fowler reached the railroad sta tion be found a locomotive with steam up ready to take him to the scene of the disaster, and, flying at the rate of a mile a minute, It waa but two hours from the time he received the telegram till be was on the float over the sunken Itcd Jacket,, Nancy was there, wonder fully cool outwardly, hot N1 mw by the Imploring glance she gave htm bow she suffered. "Nancy." he whlapered, "tell me that, whether or no I save him, you'll believe I did my beet" "Save htm," was all she would say in reply. ' . Vjt ; The helmet was put on, and Fowler, getting on the ladder, soon sank out of sight. It was half an hour before be came back aud reported that be bad found his friend In the hold of the steamer pinned under an Iron frame which had slid down upon him while be was at work. lie bad taken Tom's band and by a pressure they both knew well augured him that bis old crony was with blm. The difficulty was to remove the debris. Fowler bad at tempted to do so, but hud failed to stir tbe mans, lie had come up to get a rope to attach to It, hoping that those above might lift it Meanwhile the slguala on the Mfe line were becoming fainter. Before assum ing the helmet a second time Ned whis pered to Nancy, who was now a pic ture of despair: "Nancy, do you believe I am doing my beet?" "Save him," was sgaln her sole reply. The last look those present caught of the diver's face was that of one who bad determined to go to bis death. He bad little bopo that he would save bis friend, and be knew that be could not face his friend's wife if he came up alive leaving him dead, below. He sank beneath the surface, a cable coll on his right arm, which uncoiled as he descended. Within twenty minutes after be bad disappeared be gave the algnal to pull on the rope. A d07.cn men took bold; there was a creaking; then the beavers went down on their backs In heap the rope bad broken! Again the diver came up. Ills hel met was removed for consultation. Fowler said that bis friend could not be taken out alive unless it were done at once. "(Jet me an anchor chain," ha said. There was uoue on the floats, but in an; instant a boat pulled off to a vessel lyliiK' ' uear and brought the chain. It was lowered nnd Ned called for his helmet. "Nuucy," be whispered, "will you be eatlstled that I have done my best with this effort? There will not be time for another." "Save him," was still her only reply. "If I doa't." he replied, "goodby." After awhile a long whlle-the slg ual waa glveu. nnd this time the chain held, the debris was removed, nnd an other signs?! came to pull up Kenercou. He enme to the surface; his helmet waa removed; lie was (lend. But no signal came from Fowler. Ills rope wh8 pulled up, but nothing Came with it. Quick as it could be done a diver who hud Just come to the tlont put on a suit, went down and brought up the missing mau. He was uncon scious, harlug been Injured by , the framework, which had slipped and struck him. "When two years inter Nancy Keuer son married Ned Fowler those who hnd heard the worda "Save him" so often repeated tried to assign a reason for what appeared to be an Injunction on Fowler not to come back If be 'could not save Keneraon. Nancy never gave a reason to any one except her second husband. It was this: She knew if Ivenerspn was I05I Eowier wjjuidbojjs fo marry fier, and tills is wTyFowler repeated bis Inquiry if she would U sausoed that be did bis best THERESA 08LIN. Trtmtmmt lPO Marrfaa. In certain quarters of the world en ticing premiums are put upon early marriages. Some years ago the mayor or a soouiern town in Francs offered a reward of 20 to every couple under tb age of twenty-four who sought the matrimonial nar during bis term of omcs. The mayor expended many Al. . M ... ujuumuiu vi irancs in tne manner described. Many rears a 20. when tha number or marriages In a certain Al satian town was far below the aver age, the municipal authorities publicly announced that all persons who mar ried within a certain period should be exempt from local taxes for the space of Ave years. An epidemic of mar riages set In at once. A well known Austrian nobleman was anxious to en courage matrimony among the neasnnts on bis estate. He undertook to nro- rido each brideirroom with tobacco supplies for life and each bride with four pairs of gloves yearly. The offer acted like a charm. CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING. , HATES?
