"Are you so much offended, you will The Courtship °f M ile s Standish With Illustrations by H ow a rd Chandler Christy Priscilla not speak to me?” said she. 'Am I so much to blame, that yester day, when you were pleading »Varmly the cause of another, my heart, Impulsive and wayward. Pleaded your own, and spake out, for getful perhaps of decorum! Certainly you can forgive me for speaking so frankly, for saying What I ought not to have said, yet now I can never unsay It; For there are moments In life, when the heart Is so full of emotion. That If by chance it be shaken, or Into Its depths like a pebble Drops some careless word. It overflows, and Its secret. Split on the ground like water, can never be gathered together. Yesterday I was shocked, when I heard you speak of Miles Stand ish, Praising his virtues, transforming his very defects Into virtues, Praising hts courage and strength. and even h l B fighting In Flanders. As If by fighting alone you could win the heart of a woman, Quite overlooking yourself and the rest. In exalting your hero. Therefore I spake as I did, by an Ir resistible Impulse. You will forgive me, I hope, for the sake of the friendship between us. Which Is too true and too sacred to be so easily broken 1 “ Thereupon answered John Aldan, the scholar, the friend of Miles Stand ish: “I was not angry with you, with my self alone I was angry, Seeing how badly I managed the mat ter I had In my keeping." “ N o !” Interrupted the maiden, with answer prompt and decisive; “ No; you were angry with me for speaking so frankly and freely. It was wrong, I acknowledge; for It Is the fate of a woman Long to be patient and silent, to wait like a ghoet that Is speechless, 7*111 some questioning voice dissolves the spell of Its sllenoe. Hence Is the Inner life of so many suffering women Sunless and silent and deep, like sub terranean rivers Running through caverns of darkness, unheard, unseen, and unfruitful. Chafing their channels of stone, with endless and profitless murmurs." Thereupon answered John Alden, the young man, the lover of women: "Heaven forbid It, Priscilla; and truly they seem to me always More like the beautiful rivers that watered the Garden of (Men, More like the river Euphrates, through deserts of Havllah flowing, ■ ’ ■* 'V-' ; .

So I was hurt at your words, and a little affronted to hear you Urge me to marry your friend, though he were the Captain Miles Stand ish. For I must tell you the truth: much more to me Is your friendship Than all the love he could give, were he twice the hero you think him.” Then she extended her hand, and A l den, who eagerly grasped It, Felt all the wounds In his heart, that were aching and bleeding so sorely. Healed by the touch of that hand, and he said, with a voice full of feel ing: “ Yes, we must ever be friends; and of all who offer you friendship The Porto Rican’s Arsenal. "I have been visiting one of our out lying possesions." said E. Stanley Faversham. "I wanted a new sensation In the way of travel, and thought It would be worth while to take a look at Porto Rico. “ The Spanish Inhabltantr cling to their old customs to a great extent, and a stranger Is Impressed by the re markable devotion to canes Men. young and old. and even boys, carry some sort of a walking stick, and the Porto Rico dandles are very proud of the way they can twirl a cane and make passes with It as with a sword “ The dude of the Porto Rico coun try Is very proud of his collection of canes and refers to It as bis arsenal." —Washington Post How he had even determined to sail that day In the Mayflower, And had remained for her sake, on hearing the dangers that threats ened,— All her manner was changed, and she said with a faltering accent, “ Truly I thank you for this: how good you have been to me alw ays!"
