MARRY IN HASTE
AM OWLET brought his bride
home last evening,” announced
the horse doctor, “and they’re going to
begin housekeeping right away. Sam
■ays he married the girl three days
after first seeing her, and seems to
think be did some­
thing pretty clev­
er. but there's an
old saying about
marrying in haste
and repenting at
leisure."
“It's worth just
about as much as
the rest of the old
sayings," said the
village patriarch.
"They're all cheap
goods, and yon
don't get a chro­
mo with any of
them. Most mar-
rldu' women repent at leisure, whether
they married in baste or took their time
about it.
“I sometimes think, that the longer
an unmarried woman contemplates the
roan she is going to marry, the less she
knows about him. If there Is a pro­
tracted courtship, the man has every
opportunity to work up a reputation
that doesn't belong to him.
“Just this morning my present wife
was telling me that If she had known
what sort of a man I really was she'd
never have married me. Yet she had
six months to study me before the wed­
ding beHs rang out their glad chime*,
and she thought I was an exemplary
man. I’m natura.ly of a slouchy dis­
position. I never did take much pride
In my appearance, even when I was a
young man, and as I waxed older I be­
came downright careless. I considered
it a waste of money and effort to have
my clothes pressed, and having my
■hoes blacked seemed merely vanity
and vexation of spirit.
"Yet when I began courting the ex­
cellent woman who is my wife, 1
braced up in the most surprising way.
I always did that when I went court­
ing. And the surprising thing is that
it never seemed a dishonest proceed­
ing. It never struck me. until my wife
called my attention to the matter, long
afterwards, that I wus obtaining mon­
ey under false pretenses, so to sp<-ak,
when I created the Impression that I
was the glass of fashion and the mold
of form.
"I'd go to see that woman all togged
out like a young man who Is billed to
sing a tenor solo. I’d have my whis­
kers and hair trimmed, and my shoes
shined, and my teeth manicured, and
I'd be wearing a collar as white as
the driven snow, and a handkerchief
in keeping. It seemed the natural and
proper thing to do. yet I was working
a flimflam game with the beat Inten­
tions in the world.
“The more Arabella considered me.
the more she was convinced that I was
• marvelously neat and tidy man, and
she was so impressed that she married
me without the slightest hesitation.
No sooner were the last sad rite* per­
formed, however, than I lost all Inter-
eet Ir. the task of dolling rnyaelf up,
and I've been a sort of scarecrow ever
since.
"My wife has to remind me when
it'* time to change ahlrta or have my
hair cut, and she'* completely dliheart-
eoed. I don’t blame her in the least,
for I realize now, *lnce she has ex­
plained tbe matter ten thousand times,
that «be married a counterfeit.
"It would have been far better had
■he caught me when I was running
wiki, and married me without taking
time to think the matter over. But she
studied me for severul months, and

Spirit« of Fi«reo Birds Are Broken by
Deprivation of Sloop for Long
Period«.
The Asiatic eagle is the golden
eagle. It is a big bird, many pounds
in weight, and exceedingly gwift in
flight, as well as tierce when attueked.
Indeed, to see the natives on horse­
back carrying golden eagles on their
arms Is a strange sight, for the birds
are usually tame, when one considers
now they act when free.
Tbe eagle fancier has a problem
In taming, much less training, a gold­
en eagle.
The eagle hunter finds
where an eagle frequently rests dur­
ing the day. He climbs to this place
a«d ties a live fox there, trailing the
r«|>e into some heaped-up stones to
form a cavern in which he hides, firm­
ly grasping the rope.
When the attention of tbe soaring
eagle is attracted by the fox, the eagle
drops down and kills it. So intent
Is the greedy bird on tearing his prev
that he doesn't notice the dead fox
is slowly being drawn along the
rocks. When It is within easy reach
the hunter casts a net over the eagle
and secures him.
Kept absolutely In darkness, and
with drums beating night and day
so it cannot sleep, the spirit of the
eagle is broken. When he shows signs
of submission the trainer feeds him a
little at a time and gradually wins
his respect. If not his affection. With
the passage of months the eagle at­
taches itself to the man who feeds
and trains him.—Detroit News.
IGNORED WEALTH UNDERFOOT
Spanish Treasure Seeker« Mocked by
Fate When They Overlooked
Vaat Mountain of Iron.
Near Mercado mountain, Mexico, a
legend goes, Spanish soldiers slew i an
Aztec chief, who said that the hill
was the upthrust finger of the Spir­
it of Fury, and that it would some
day avenge the folly of Spain, The
incident was in time related at court,
and tbe fine men and women there
laughed over It.
Like the gold seekers who over-
looked the fortunes that were I un-
tier th«lr feet in the wonderful soil
of the English portions of the Uni­
ted States, tlie Spanish sliver sleuths
looked with unseeing eyes upon a
naked, blood-colored hill worth more
than all they were tc :> tnke out of
Mexico and Peru in a century. Mer­
cado used it to hung lila namç on
and rode away after the metal he
had come to regard as tlie only form
of real wealth.
Just what effect the discovery ot
this greatest body of iron ore above
ground in the world would have hud.
had the explorers grasped its real
value, is hard to say. But there is
hardly a more mocking Incident In
history than that of the Spanish sol­
diers. wlien Spain was surfeited with
silver and destitute of Iron, circling
around one of the1 most perfect iron
supidles on the face of the earth, and
cursing their luck because they hud
found nothing of value beyond the
mountains.

Near East Needs Cast-Aside Clothes.
The clothing cast aside as worthless
by our people here in America would
provide comfortable covering for every
unclad one In the Near East, and
would be an untold blessing to thous­
ands who have been stripped of all
their possessions.
This clothing can be transferred to
them through the agency of the Near
East Relief, incorporated by Act of
Congress to relieve the suffering in
that country.
