"To his dying day a man holds a grudge against anybody that has made him uncomfortable. There is nothing that so endears a woman to a man as a trustful absorption of his choicest lies. Contrariwise, there is nothing that so weakens her hold on his affections as an accusation of untruthfulness backed up by indisputable proof. "It is a pity all women cannot learn this. An old woman who had had four husbands gave me a tip on that before I married, and I played it strong all the way through. I admit it was hard work. There came times when my common sense fairly shouted for vindication, when the pretended inability to see beyond my nose, or even to the end of it, drove me to desperation; but 1L- "irtim rvfltri in the lone UiO aumuiaiTu *<> ?% ? ? w run.

Oh, why didn't you know? Well, yes; I anrir?oh, to Alfred Miller. Oh, it hasn't been definitely settled yet. Some time this summer, I believe." The girl in blue beamed upon the widow. "Possibly your philosophy is sound" she said, "but I am sure I could never live up to it By the way, I suppose you had a good time going to the theater last week?" "Theater?" said the widow. "No, 1 didn't go at all. Alfred was ill. He wrote to me twice a day. Poor fellow, he wasn't able to get out of the house." The girl in blue stared hard, then blinked rapidly. "Merciful goodness!" she gasped. "Oh, dear?If this isn't?what shall I do? I don't suppose I ought?yes, I mi >t. See here, my dear," she said, with determination, "I've got to tell you something. I hate to do It, but he wasn't too sick to go to the theater. Why, my dear, he?he went to the theater five times last week. Five times. Just think of it! My brother saw him there." The widow grabbed her handkerchief and gloves. "Let me out of here, quick!" she said. "Went to the theater five times in one week, did he, and yet he wasn't able to come to see me. O?o?oh, how Clare he lie to me so! I'll show him. Just wait till I catch him, If I don't."? New York Times. How He Made Hie Millions.?The Steel trust lawyers met their match yesterday when John W. Stevenson. Jr., on the stand told how his tlnplate company went Into the trust Stevenson, a rugged, white-whiskered Individual, said to be a relative of Robert Louis Stevenson and a brother of "Danny" Stevenson, lord provost of Glasgow, kept everybody, including the investigators, in roars of laughter. He has a gentle vocal burr and the keen wit of his native land. Mr. Stevenson was telling Lawyer Lindabury, for the trust, how he had watched Henry Bessemer conduct his first experiments with Bessemer steel. "But the lad dina mek a sookses uv the word lawyer with making a mess of things. "But he kept right along at It and finally made a success," insisted Lindabury. "He didnna sokseed for a long while. He were lak a looyer." Amid the general laugh Lindabury dryly asked If the witness associated the word of lawyer with making a mess of things. "But when in the end he went to Switzerland and got pure pig Iron he sookseeded," said the witness meditatively. "Like a lawyer, he kept pegging away, and was finally successful, like a lawyer," added Lindabury, triumphantly. "Sooksessful in stealing like a looyer, did he say?" smiled the witness, while every one except Lindabury roared.? New York American. The Difference in Time.?Frederick S. Isham, author of "A Man and His Money," is noted for his ready wit. and during his extensive travels through the world has accumulated a large fund of interesting anecdotes, says the New York Sun. One of his latest concerns an American who was touring in the Holy Land. This man wanted a gruide for but a short time, and so hired one by the hour. They started out, the day being dark and cloudy and "did" a number of sights. Then the tourist thought it time to get back to his hotel for lunch. At the city gate he glanced at the big public clock. "Great Scott!" he exclaimed. "Is that right?" The guide assured him it was. The tourist appealed to a merchant; the later showed him his watch?5.30 o'clock. Nothing wrong with the city timepiece. The tourist's own watch was out of commission. He consulted other clocks in the neighborhod. There was no mistake?it was half past five and he had left the hotel at 8 o'clock in the morning. He offered the guide compensation for nine and a half hours. That agile person fairly "ate up" the fee and hastily disappeared. Time certainly did fly in the Holy City, thought the tourist, and it was only when he reached his hotel that he learned the Mohammedans compute their civic day from sunset, which is 12 o'clock. Fivethirty, Oriental standard, was about noon, European time. Such a Tender Heart.?They were going along the public highway at a leisurely rate of forty miles per hour, when a decrepit hen and rooster started to do the chicken specialty?cross the road, says Judge. The front and hind wheels on the right side struck the poor, old stifTJolnted rooster amidships, and with one squawk he succumbed. Immediately the man at the steering wheel started to slow down and to look about for a place to turn. His solicitous wife turned to her seat-mate and said: "Isn't that Just like his tender heart? He won't be satisfied unless he goes back and settles for that rooster. He just can't bear to feel he has injured any one or anything." Then louder, to her husband, she said: "George, remember that appointment. We haven't any time to go back for anything." Glancing at the clock near his feet and at the speedometer near by, he sighed and said: "You're right, Jennie; but I just know if I had turned back, I could have killed that old hen just as easy as I did the rooster!" iUistcllanrous grading. WITH NEIGHBORING EXCHANGE8 Notes and Comment* About Matter* of Local Interest. Chester Reporter, Aug. 13: Mr. Johnson McCrorey, of Richburg, met with a serious accident last Wednesday afternoon while driving from Richburg to Fort Lawn, but fortunately will escape with no lasting and serious hurts, though paralyzed temporarily. It seems that the harness became partly unfastened, and one of the horses became fractious. Mr. McCrorey dismounted from the carriage in which he was riding with several young ladies, and attempted to adjust the harness, and as he did so one of the horses reared and came down on Mr. McCrorey with full force, the iron-shod hoofs striking Mr. McCrorey on the spine and disabling him. He was taken to Fort Lawn and given medical attention. At first serious results were feared but Mr. McCrorey is now rapidly improving and will soon be completely well... .Cliff McElhaney, a young man who is said to have been a member of the Rock Hill police force until a day or two ago, was found yesterday morn ing lying beside the Southern Railway track about a hundred yards below the Chester Oil Mill, and the report spread that his back was broken. He was taken to the Magdalene hospital, however, where it was learned that the young man's hurts were confined to a broken ankle, a wrenched back and a few minor bruises. Mr. Mcllhaney is a son of Magistrate John W. McElhancy, of Port Mill, and his parents and brother came down yesterday in an automobile as soon as they heard of the accident. It seems that the young man was riding on a freight and in some way lost his hold and fell. Gaffnoy Ledger, Aug. 13: Frank Curtis and Miss Georgia Lutz, of Charlotte, were married in this city Saturday night, the ceremony being performed by Judge W. D. Kirby at his home... .Glenn Mullinax and Miss Etta Mullln&x were united in the holy bonds of matrimony on Sunday, by Judge W. D. Kirby at his home in this city Will Carroll and and Miss Sallie Cobb, both of Cherokee Palls, were married in this city on the 7th, by Judge W. D. Kirby The last swan on the lake at the Irene Park died Saturday. This makes the sixth swan placed in the park and it is rather difficult to determine Just why they can't live Mr. R. E. Johnson returned home Saturday morning after visiting Yorkville, Rock Hill and other points in York county in the Interest of the Indian motorcycle. He sold two machines while on this trip The county campaign is moving along very smoothly with little friction being manifested. The candidates for the most part seem to be on very good terms. The party is being greeted by fairly large audiences at every place. Yesterday a very quiet meeting was held at White Plains News reached the city yesterday of the drowning of young Pd Brady in Broad river. The particular*, as far as could be ascertained, are as follows: A party consisting of Henry Bulce, Roland Little, Jesse Brady, father of the dead boy, Ed Brady, John Robertson, J. B. Gladden, and some others, left Gaffney about one o'clock for Broad river to enjoy a fish fry. They went to Cherokee Ford, just above the Three C's trustle. Ed Brady, the unfortunate lad, together with some of the others, went into the river with the seine. After a while they got down toward Goat Island, where the channel is narrow and the water is deep. Young Brady, who was about eighteen years old and a poor swimmer, got into water too deep and went down. His father, who was standing on the bank, attempted to rescue the drowning boy, but reached the spot just as he was sinking the last time. Up to the hour of going to press the body had not been recovered. STRANGE DOGS OF ALASKA. Most Common Breed is the Malamute or Native Dog. Dogs in Alaska are of all breds and sizes, the most common being the malamute, or native dog, says a writer in the Wide World Magazine. The word "malamute" is an Indian word meaning Eskimo, and is applied to both dogs and natives. The malamute is of the wolf strain?in fact, the best of the breed are half wolf. They evince all the characteristics of the wolf, both in appearance and in manners. Owing to his wolf-like fur, the malamute can Easily stand the extreme Alaskan cold. He is a born fighter, an inveterate thief, and somewhat of a coward, for he will seldom fight singly against a lone adversary. The malamute, while well able to withstand the cold, does not seem to have the same order of intelligence as is displayed by the outside dog, and the best dog for Alaska would seem to be a mixture of the two strains. Another native breed in the north is the huskle, but this breed is rarer than common usage of *he word would imply. The real huskies are bred in the neighborhood of the Mackenzie river, and are more common in the territory under the Jurisdiction of the Hudson Bay company than in Alaska Small dogs, such as fox terriers, are a rarity in Alaska, for in that country a dog is valuable in exact proportion to the amount he can pull. A sleigh dog will weigh anything from thirty to 150 pounds, the average being about seventy-five pounds. It is surprising to the unitiated how big a load a dog can pull, though I must admit I have never seen or heard of a dog in Alaska pulling 1,000 pounds, under the conditions described In a well-known novelist's book; nor have I ever seen or heard of a dog-fight as pictured so vividly in the story' in which he graphically describes a fight where two dogs are battling for supremacy in the team, and the remainder of the dogs sit on their haunches and form a ring around the contestants, who, under these conditions, I suppose, would fight it out under Marquis of Queensbury rules. I question whether such a fight ever occurred in natural history. If there are two Alaskan dogs fighting, and forty non-interested dogs in the neighborhood, the fight will soon Involve itself into one dog underneath and fortyone dogs on top. The idea of an Alaskan dog calmly sitting on his haunches and cooly viewing the fight Is too funny for anything; the joke can only be appreciated by those who have seen a bunch of malamutes in a fight. IW Willis?Why do you call that machine a "she" CIlllls?It is said to be the "last word" in automobile construction.?Judge. Jtw'An Eastern professor says that mankind is 50.000 years old. Women all over the country are already denying the report.?Exchange. The Girl With Yellow Hair By Mollie Kennedy. The first morning that Molra Gerraghty came into that Bond street tea room all the girls started. Her hair was yellow, startlingly yellow, reminding one of sunshine, of fields of corn, of marigolds blinking at the sun and of golden daffodils. Miss Bates, the manageress, said this; but Miss Bates was of a poetical turn of mind. Later on Oscar Henderson boasted that it was he who had discovered her. The Bond street tea room was a favorite haunt of several of the academy students, of whom he was one, a little coterie of them gathering in one corner, where they talked on art jargon unintelligible to the ordinary listener until one afternoon Molra chanced to serve them, and after that they talked of nothing but her wonderful yellow hair. That night Henderson burst in upon his friend, Jack Mayne, who was smoking and painting, his eyes dancing. "Old man," he cried, "I've found her. I've discovered the poster girl at last" Jack Mayne went on painting and shrugged his shoulders. "You've said that before," he said calmly. "Remmher the little Irish girl. You said she'd do. Her hair was red." But the next day when he saw Molra Gerraghty he was quite as enthusiastic as his friend, and as eager to discover whether or not she would consent to sit to him for a picture he wished to paint Her soft accent as she answered him told him of her nationality, and he asked her at once If she were Irish. "My father was Irish," she answered. "My mother Is English. She is an invalid, and I am her only child, so I do not like to be away from her a moment longer than I need. But if you will come round and see her," she added quickly, seeing the look of disappointment on his face, we can see what she says about the sittings. You see," she said with a smile, "I am only free on Sundays and every alternate Saturday afternoon; if you will come round and see what .mother says we might be able to arrange something." The following Sunday he went around at her Invitation, and found, as he expected, that the mother was a lady, a gentle-faced woman whose white hair showed signs of having once been like her daughter's. Then began a series of very pleasant Sunday afternoons, for Molra had confessed to him that she could not give up the mornings, this being the only time In the week she had to devote to her mother; and each afternoon Jack Mayne would join the rest of the little coterie, who had tea in the Bond street tea shop and who now sought the particular corner over which Molra presided. Bit by bit Jack Mayne learned something of their past life. Mrs. Gerraghty spoke but little of her own people, but he gathered that she had been well born, and that her parents had never forgiven the match with the penniless author who had fallen In love with her face, and since her marriage she had had no communication whatever with her own kin. It was when the picture was almost finished that Jack Mayne spoke of showing it, and wondered to see the sudden look of fear which leaped into Mrs. Gerraghty's eyes. premacy as the tourist I and business vehicle, yfS For endurance, reli- *^"5 ability, hill climbing, speed, economy and ease of control, the Indian 1 than all other motorcycles c Free Engine Clutch all 1912 models wit! 4 H.

He explained .to her how much depended upon exhibitions, and Molra sat with quiet face listening; but after that Mrs. Gerraghty said nothing. Only when Moira had gone from the room to prepare tea, she turned with a slightly flushed face to the young man. "You are obliged to sell your pictures is it not so?" she asked, and he nodded. "How much do you expect to get for ?for Molra's portrait?" she asked. He named a sum, and she was silent for a moment or two; then, looking direct at the young man, she asked him If he would do her a favor. "Certainly. If it is anything I can do I am yours to command," he assured her, and she gave him a tiny key which she drew from a box on the table at her side. "Do you mind going to that cabinet? she said, pointing to a small oak cabinet which he had always admired, and which stood In one corner of the room. "This key will unlock the upper drawer, and If you look inside you will find a tiny sandalwood box. Please bring it to me." He obeyed her directions and brought the box, a tiny trifle which seemed reminiscent of the east. She opened It and took out a curious ring, which she laid In his palm. It was fashioned of old silver, but held a great ruby, gleaming like a drop of blood, and he exclaimed with pleasure at the beautiful thing. "Yes, It is very beautiful," she agreed "but its value is of the most importance now. I do not wish Moira to know of this; but do you think you could dispose of the ring for me? I am In need of money, and I believe It will fetch a good deal." It was not till a week later that Jack Mayne could spare the time to dispose of the ring, and in the meantime he had been very busy Indeed, as the exhibition at which he intended to show several of his pictures was to be held a week earlier than first intended, so that he was forced to make arrangements at once. The picture of Molra, which was far and away his best piece of work, stood in his studio complete, but he hesitated a little over sending it, since he felt sure it was this fact that had forced Mrs. Gerraghty to confide in him, though as he stood and looked at it he thrilled with pride, knowing it to be really good. Taking up the ring, he went out and made his way toward a curio shop, the proprietor of which he knew very well. He had once sold him a set of carved ivory chessmen, and in the course of talk had gleaned the information that his invalid son was an artist, so that gradually he had struck up a kind of friendship. As he entered the gloomy little shop he saw a tall, well-dressed, elderly gentleman was leaning over the counter talking to Levlson, and waited his turn, though the proprietor looked up with a nod and a smile. By and by the other customer turned to examine some stones through a magnifying glass, and Levlson turned. "What can I do for you today, Mr. Mayne?" he asked, and taking out the little sandalwood box, Jack showed him the ring. But he was not prepared for the start of astonishment the man gave and the quick upward stare showed him that something uncommon was here. "Where did you get this. Mr. Mayne? he asked in a low voice. "This gentleman here?and he motioned to the elderly man, who was still looking at the stones?"has one precisely like It. May I show him? Do you mind?" Jack Mayne hesitated. After all the ring was not his, and he explained this to the other. "It's a most remarkable thing," said the shopkeeper. "The stone is really valuable, you see. It's what Is termed a blood ruby." At this last words the other man turned. "What's that about a blood ruby?" he asked. Plainly his Interest lay In precious stones. The shopkeeper was forced to explain, and again Jack Mayne was astonished at the sudden start of the other man. He gripped his arm and bent down. "Where did you get this, sir?" he cried. Answer me. I insist upon it Where did you get this?" Jack Mayne was In a quandary and hesitated. But the other grew Insistent, and at last he conceived the Idea of taking him back to his own studio, where they could talk without being overheard, the door opening Just then to admit a new customer. "It is not mine," he told him. 'It was given me by a rriena to sen ior ner. "Who was she? What is she like?" he demanded, and again Jack Mayne hesitated. How much or how little should he tell? Then, as they entered the studio the old gentleman suddenly came face to face with the portrait of Moira and gave a cry of triumph. "It is she!" he cried. "It is she! It Is my daughter!"
