AN ALWAYS ENDANGERED RACE

TTHB human race, it leemi to i,

Of all that's done to keep it free ;
Froih swift and sad extermination;
Reformers everywhere appear ; ;
With new obstructions and restrictions,
They try to make man's duty clear,
And if they often seem severe, "

They merely follow their convictions.
The human race, if all is true .
That we have , heard about iV surely o
Has been in luck to muddle through;
Its course has "been directed, poorly; . . '-
Whenever danger may be met
The human race goes out to meet it;
Sunk far in sin, it seems to fret
Until it gets in deeper yet;
There's nothing in the world to beat it.
:i , ...
The human race is always Just
About to tumber to damnation;:
Prom! those who have its fate in trust
We get this first-hand information.
They have to be upon the Jump.
And they must watch forever, daily
Preventing an impending bump,
And keeping man, the reckless chump,
From going to the devil gayly.
The human race deserves no praise
For being stfll alive and doing;
Consider 4ts unholy ways,
And all the pleasures it's pursuing!
No wonder they who wish to run
The world, and make the rules for others
Are saddened, seeing alt the fun -The
race is winning or has won ;
It's simply awful, ain't it, brothers?

44"V"ES," the man repeated. "I under
X Btootf you when I talked with
your mother. You are like her only
younger and prettier. You have her
soft voice, her gentle manner. Now I
know why the experiences you have
had have never rubbed the bloom from
the peach. That Is an old-fashioned
phrase but It expresses what I mean."
She was looking at him, her heart
beating fast She must tell him now
the truth about herself.
"Perhaps, if you know all I have
done." she said timidly, "you would
not think so well of me. For, Dr.
Carter I have knocked about quite a
bit."
"I know it."
i -put you do not I" she contradicted
'You know that ""was a milliner's
assistant. But you do not know that.
Just before I went to Mr. Hollings
head'a I sang in -"
He held up a silencing hand. In
Heyman's cabaret? Yes, I do know it.
Mr. Holltngshead told me all about it
at the time that we had to ask you
to sing for hia wife."
"Then you knew !" the words were
scarcely more than a whisper.
"Yea, I knew. Oh, child, dare I tell
you what I felt when I learned that?
how the love that had begun to grow
in my heart sprang to such a vigor
ous growth that I could scarcely con
ceal it from you? I knew what an
ordeal that cabaret experience must
have been I could fancy how you had
kept up a brave front to your mother
when all the time you were half
sick with fear.
"And then I watched you in that
house-with that poor, dying woman
there how you put your own abhor
rence of certain things aside in order
to spare her pain in order to keep
her with her husband a little longer
in order to help me fight the fight for
her life.
"Do you think I did not see it all?.
My dear, my dear I How blind you
must think me and how blind you must
be if you do not know that I love you
better than all the world beside !"
He was hbldins both her hands In
his firm grasp. His eyes were gasing
into hers with an expression of which
she had but a passing glimpse until
now. She understood as never before
that in his love lay all her happiness,
all that life could hold of sweetness.
She could not speak. Nor could she
look away.
"I know you do not love me yet. he
was saying. "But all I ask is that
you will give me a chanea to try to
make you love me." His humility
broke down her reserve. With a little
exclamation of tenderness, she drew
her hands from his clasp, and put her
arms about bis lieck.
"But there' are things I have not
yet told you, she insisted half an
hour later.
"What kind of things?" the man
asked, smiling down at her. "You can
not scare me now. darting, by anything
you may say etnee nothing change
what you have! already said.

"You must listen," she protested.
"It is not a pretty story."
He listened while she told him of
the episode of the rings. "When he
uttered a violent imprecation she laid
her fingers on his lips. "Please." she
begged, "do not let us mar our happi
ness by getting angry ! Only I wanted
you to know. For it has not been ex
plained, you see who took the rlnga"
"It is all plain, to me," the man de
clared. he same cur who forced his
attentions upon you who kissed you
against your will whom you angered
by your honesty, by your purity took
those rings to epite you. And then,
scared at the outcome he returned
them the coward f
Again she checked him. "Promise
me to try to forget all about him," she
pleaded. "I only hope his poor father
may bring out the good thut is some
where in the son."
"They are going to Europe together
this spring." John Carter said. "The
house is .to be closed until their re
turn. "And now let us talk about some
thing else. When will you marry me?"
This subject, too, required long con
versation. But before Jennie returned
it was settled that in June there would
be a quiet little wedding in a certain
little church near the park. ,
Adelaide made a feeble protest. "I
am so commonplace, so uneducated I
may make you ashamed of. me !"
"Ashamed of you '." he scoffed. "You
make every other girl seem as nothing
compared to you."
"I will do my best to educate my
self," she promised humbly. "I know
so little !"
"You know what no books can
teach !" he exclaimed. "The kind of
knowledge you long for is easily ac
quired. What you are, darling, cannot
be learned by study. And It is that in
you that I love. All other things are
mere adjuncts."
"But I want those adjuncts," she in
sisted. '
"And you shall have them," he prom
ised. "You wUl have a full life, my
sweetheart. You shall be often with
your mother and Jennie in the little
home we will get fdr them; you will
read and study, you say, and you will
keep the home-and heart of the hap
piest man In all this world I"
And as she looked into bis eyes, she
knew he was speaking the truth.
