Mrs. Ileninkei that was to he hart noticel ilenniker'a brier, and ahe said titat she liked a pipe, and ou several occasions she actually urged llenniker to smoke it. This ia undeniable. There were witnesses to it. Altogether ahe is one ol the moat charm ing of wmnen, and although Hen in iter has been married to her now for neorly six months he seems to be aa devoted as ever. I'ertiRp even more so. The bt ier w as really a gem from a maeculine poir.t uf view. It waa old, o! course, so old that Henniker almost for gets how many year he had it; but he clmrly recollects that its original cost wa 75 ccnta, and he knew that ho money would tempt him to part with it. Therefore it was (juite a blow to Henni ker when his wife an id, one evening: "len't that pipe getting a little strong, Tom?" He looked at her a moment, hardly up drstariding. "I don't mem that I mind it," ahe pursued. "I)in't think that I meant that. It seemed to me thut it waa getting aort of worn out." "I guess it's good for awhile longer' said Henniker, with an attempt at cheerful ness. "It seems to burn the tobacco all right." "That's just like you," cried Mrs, Hen niker, with aweet fervor. "You always try to make the beat of everything and never e-mi pin in. You would go on mnoking that black old thing forever and never think ot buying a new one aa long aa it held together and burned tobacco." "I guesa that's so," said Henniker, dryly. A few days after that it was Henriiker'i birthday, and he sat down W breakfast with a radiant face. "Well," said Mrs. Henniker, "why don't you look at your plate instead of looking at me!" Henniker looked at his plate, and beaidc it was a square packnge with an inscription. It doesn't matter what the inscription waa, but it assured him that the pm kut'e was his. He opened it, and after unrolling a largt quantity of tiasue paper discovered a nice lighti(reen pipe can nnd within the case white, shiny ineenc amn pipe. Henniker a 'ted very welt. His expressed rapture waa beyond cavil and he went straight to his tobacco jir ami could hardly be prevailed upon to wait until he ! ad eaten hia lire.i k fn t before he smoked hi present. When he did hi wife stood by hia c mirarul watched the filling and lighting with brent h leaa interest. With the tint puff of smoke Henniker eiliuled a sigh of supreme satis faction, "Then you like it, dear?" "Like it!" exrUimed Henniker. "Well!" "1 wasn't sure whether you would, be cause, of course, I never did such a thing as to buy a pipe before; but knew any way that whatever I got it would be an improvement on that old thuig nry poor boy has been smoking." Henniker sighed again. "This," he said, "is a pipe as is a pipe." It burned his tongue and it made the tobacco taste like wood shavings, but he might have been smoking a choice brand of hasheesh to all appearances. When he started for the oflice he filled the pipe sgain and smoked it until he was out of the bouse. Then he put it carefully in its eaae and filled the old brier. It was not very hard for him to begin smoking that meerschaum again when he returned that evening. If it had lwen, Mis. Henmker'a delighted smile would have been compensation enough. Hut it was rather hard to have to smoke it in the hip armchair after dinner. Tlut was the par ticular time of all tnnea when the old bner was dearest to his soul, 'resent!) a bright idea ociurred to nun. "Milly," he said. "I havs a thought. 1 want to sort of consecrate this beaut if lit pipe of yours to this day. It is to be my birthday pipe. I shall smoke it only on tiie anniversary of this day. 1 alia II put it away in my treasure drawer for the ret of the year and on my birthday I shall take it out and tie will stt tngethecand remem ber thia evening1 aa I stnoke it. I won't take any risk of breaking it by smoking it on ordinary days. It's too fine for every day." "Nothing is ton flue for you. Tom," aanl his wife. "It was a beautiful thought, and just like you, but 1 alull feel hurt if you don't smoke it all the time." Of course, there was nuthing to be said after that. One day aa Henniker was filling the nicer sclwium its shining surface slipped through hia fingers and it fell. With a o.uick move ment he stooped aud caught it before it reached the ground, but he trembled tu think of the nmiueas of the diMister, What if he had bioken it! The thought kept recurring to him. What if he had broken it! After aw hile it did not seem so terrible, ami he found hiuuelf ni ing, half aloud: "I wish, by the gte.it hoin spoon, that I had broken it!" aud blushed, as well lie might. A day or two after that for crime is tint always of muahroom growth Heumker dropped thr itieeiwchauin -itrain and picked it up with a slight dent in the side. It w.is a week before he had the couinge to ti il again, and then it dropped on a i itnciit nuic walk. Another htuiw was the only ieult. It was a snd ending Henniker wa re turnnig home after a bona fide late m-mmoii with the hooka at the othre He live in a northern suburb and his tmue i quite n distance from the ntila stniion It w.t very dai k on this particular ingiit, but Henniker is muiamui, and was not in the least alarmed when the figure of a in.ui etneiged from the gbmiu and atoppud be fore linn.

We have cured thousands of persons during the past ut) years, or dyspepsia, with Dr. Omul's Improved Liver Pills. A 2"c box of these pills are worth more to people with jioor digestion than six months of dieting or a gallon of liepsiii. It only takes oue for a dose. We will send two of these pills to prove what they will do. W. F. Kre mer. sells them for 25 cents a box or by mail ou receipt of price. Write Dr. liosanko Co. Phiht., Pa. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION.
