Fade away, quick!" Hhe did not mean that aha wanted the man's ruddy cheek* to grow pale uor that he should undergo any other change Implied lu the meanlug of the word JJfude." Hhe wanted him to van ot*,er To uho the expression she used 1h merely Amerirau slang, only a little more com prelienslve and rational than "skiddoo" or ?'vamoose," which had hitherto beeu employed to couvey the same incanlug. Around Corn wall, lu Huglaud, they would take the word "fade" in the sense of "depart" an not at all out of the ordi nary. To "fade" means to grow pale or weak, but lu Cornwall It alao meant* "to go." Just how It happemi to have that meaning the philologists, do uot agree. Jt la Npelled both "fade" anfl "vade," and the plaualble suggestion haa been offered that the word comes from the I^ttln, the expression "vade mecuiu," meaning "go with me," having beeu in common use in the daya when a prayer hook or a talisman thuC was supposed to go along with the Individ ual to bring good luck was thus In scribed. The fade dance, In which the dancers go from house to house, has been popular In that corner of England for six centuries. ? St Louis Globe Democrat. PREVENTION OF SICKNESS. It Would Prove a Most Effaetiva Blow Against Poverty. That sickuess is the first step leading to dependency and the primary cause of poverty la -shown by an Investiga tion conducted by the Hussell Sage foundation in New York city. Thla inr vestlgatlon was made among wage earners and charity organizations xvlth n view to knowing how frequently is sickness encountered as a factor in de pendency. It was found that over 35 per cent of those in need of aid had been brought to this position through sickness or the responsibility for sick ness. Another lmportunt fact revealed wus that most of the cases studied be longed to the lower branches of labor and that they were here for the rea son that either physical or mental de terioration had followed past illnesses. In other words, sickness was found to bo a factor producing a low grade of lubor as well as dependency. Of th? G87 cases of sickness studied two-thirds were found at the time of the Investigation to have l>een sick more than half a year, and the physi cian estimated that 2PC> cases were chronic, while eighty-one were likely to become progressively worse. That the prevention of sickness is the most effective blow against poverty and dependency was the recommenda tion made by the committee making the investigation. Some of the needs to this end were pointed out, as inoro prompt medical attention, education In hygiene and sanitation, opportunity for periodical medical examinations to pre vent sickness and better health condi tion both In 1 1 ,?* and places of em* ployment.

Jlui's idea of a home was a comfortable house with a very nice wife In It, or at leant u Hult of room*. lie wn? to own th<j j bouse ami lb# wife uiul the furniture. The wlfo^was to lie there to ndnlRter to hlsj wants and comtvrts. Jetmlu Owens was the daughter of a widow. Jennie was twenty years old. She wuu a high school graduate aud aimed partly to support herself and her mother, who had a little In come, by stenography and typewrit ing. But Jlfn Hawks came along, talked very sweetly to her and In time Induced her to marry him. Both want ed a home: both wanted to fulfill the destiny nature Intended for them. This \yas all very well, but neither had been educated to matrimony. Jim had hU? preconceived notions of what his wife should be to him. and she had her preconceived notlona of what he should l>e to her. As soon as the honeymoon emled these preconceiv ed notions began to clash. Jim's habit of saving money did not grow less with two to provide for. He kept control of the cash and pinched his wife for small expenditures. Me had not been used to considering the requirements of any one except himself and needed practice to become used to considering those of another. Ho was not exactly what his wife expected to find him. aud she thought that In certain re spects she might make him over. She remained In their three rooms all day' and when evening came needed a change of scene, to say* nothing of recreation. Jim worked hard all day and when evening came desired to rest. Besides, going out required some expenditure, If only car fare.7 And when It wns necessury to spend money ? be was used to spending it on himself. These things caused scraps, and the scraps gradually grew to be quarrels. Jennie usually had the right of the question, but did not know how to^ use It ho as to impress her husband that he was In the wrong. While be ?wns wrong in trying to dominate her, she acted uneducatedly. . One evening Jennie desired Jim to go with her to an evening party given by one of her friends. Jim wouldn'fcgo. She snld she would go aloue and him to com'e to bring her home,_ Ho 1 mnde no reply. She went, and since he did not come for her she remained at her friend's all night. She should have gone borne early the next day, but Instead ?iK>nt the day and the night with her mother. On returning the next da.v she found her home deserted. Here was a break between two per sons who. If they could have been pre pared for their parts, might have got over this early married period, have gradually become used to each other and settled down into a happy married life. What a contrast between this antagonism and the mutual depend ence of ten or twenty years later! Jennie made an effort for a recon ciliation, but since she did not accom pany it by a confession that she, and she only, was in the wrong Jim paid no attention to her pleadings. Then her mother advised her to let him alone. If he ever came to realize that ho was giving up that which was pleas ing and ennobling for his preconceived notions of ivhat a wife should be to him he would very likely conquer his pride and return to her. If riot she could do, no. more than she had done and the matter must adjust Itself or remain -unadjusted without any fur ther action on her part- . For awhile Jim persuaded himself that he had acted the part of a strong man in asserting himself and in re fusing to live with a woman who,, as he expressed it, would "take tho bit in her teeth and run away with every thing.". But he had been very happy for awhile in {its home with his' wife. His mother had taken his part in his disagreements with his wife, and be went to live with her. But he had reached an age when a man craves his own rooftree and hearthstone, end he was not satisfied. Jle met with* an accident in his work, and. though bis mother cared to r him tenderly, he pined for bis wife. Between her and him waa a deathly alienee. Jennie did not try to win him beck to her. IBm was a man of strong will and must go his own way. Besides, no reuiftB could last unlearn he became satlaped that his wife had rights as well SS himself. ^ One day Jennie heard a click at the gate and, looking ont through a win dow, saw her husband coming. With l naming eyes and a amlle she went to meet him. ??Jennie," he said, "I treated yen brutally. Will yon forgive me?" . ??It was all my fault," ?*?? replied.' "You'll hate to stand a Tot If come tack to fflt* I've a bad temper." "I'll try to correct my faults." There were quarrels after that be tween them, but Jim made a rule that they must be made up the day thty occurred. In th*e they came to reftej differences on tHk same footing as er trials and tbr sooner mended tbe better. r* ? -i1" "? ' 7d MB3 Sup?rvi?or'?
