A gloomy silence bad fallen between
them.
The girl's bead, tilted at an angle
of defiance, added fuel to the flame.
He dashed the bead from a tiny violet
that had peeped over the threshold of
the summer house.
"The*e Is no reason why you should
destroy my violet bed," said the girl,
"simply because 1 have chosen to
take a course in dramatic art In New
York." She made a movement as If
to rise and leave him to his stony
silence, but he Jerked her back.
"Iris," he pleaded impetuously,
"give up this crazy notion."
"It is not a crazy notion! If 1 am
to marry and live In a hair-asleep village
all my life, I certainly waat something
to break the monotony!"
"Oh?it is monotony?to think of
marrying me, !s it?" It was the man's
head which now tilted angrLy.
"It. certainly would be?to both or
us," Iris continued, defiantly. "I merely
want to take a course In dramatic
art, so that I will be more capable of

back from New York and parade the
streets with powder on your nose an
Inch thick and look for all the world
like a blooming actress." Blair was
not looking at the rising anger In the
girl's face, and continued, unconscious
of the storm: "My mother never had to
sing, or play or recite to keep her
household going. We seemed to get
along all right without any crazy seirimproveraent
notions!"
"My dear Mr. Blair," Iris put In
sweetly. "If your mother round her

great big thiDgs In life among pots
and pans, brooms and dust pans and

she continued, and with rising
anger, "that you are always delighted
to go over with me to the Lanes and
listen to their records of voices and
operas. It is true it is only a suggestion
of the things that are going on
in the world, but you apparently are
not loath to enjoy them."
"That is entirely different to having
your own wife making a spectacle of
herself and drawing the entire village
after her in trailing admiration!"
"That's the whole thing in a nutshell,"
cried Iris, with two red spots
in her cheeks; "you are Jealous! You
want me all to yourself. You want
me to stay in a house and keep it
clean and comfortable and pleasant
for your own special enjoyment. 1

and a desire to make things more entertaining

when I thought of studying, but now
you can look for some one else to

fingers. "Give this to some girl who

He stared for a long moment at the
ring that had rolled into a crack In
the rustic table, then his head went
forward onto his arms.
"Infernal jealous Idiot that I am,"
he frankly Informed himself.
His face was white and set when
he again raised It. After all, there
were other things In life save the
keeping in order of a house, even if
that house wew already built and
rambled among a grove of fir trees.
Blair arose. His shoulders were
drooping, and he made his way from
the summer house and over toward
the house among the trees.
Once within the old gardens his anger
against Iris returned. Why should
any girl want more than this beautiful
home that he had bought for her?
They had gone over every stick and
stone of it in fond anticipation or it.
Blair kicked an unoffending stone and
turned away from the house; he could
not go in now that iris had thrown It
and him over for a course In dramatic
art.
A sense of outraged love kept him
from doing the thing he knew to be

right, and Iris departed for New TorkIn
an attempt to forget his shattered
romance Blair went about with
all of the girls In the Tillage. And
most of all be found his way into the
cozy home of the Lanes, where he
and Iris had spent many happy evenings.
"I'm sorry, old man," Lane had said
to him when he learned of the broken
engagement. "Iris is a mighty fine
little girl," and Blair turned away unaccountably
irritated.
"You should have humored her,"
Mrs. Lane put in. "Iris, being above
the average type, needs delicate handling.
I hope she will not marry
some New Yorker and leave us/' she
had added by way of helping the
cause of Iris. The little matron knew
that Iris would never marry any one
save Evan Blair, but that he should
be taught to appreciate the girl was
also a part of Mrs. Lane's scheme.
So it was, from time to time, Blair
heard of the splendid times Iris was
having in the city. Knowing It to
have been the cause of the trouble,
\tra t ana wiaeiv refrained from J
speaking of the progress Irlg was
making In her dramatic work.
After six months of study Iris had
beer given an afternoon at one of the
larger hotels and the newspapers bad
given her great praise. '
Blair would have given much for a
glimpse of those letters which his
hostess read excerpts from, but he
only sat back with gloomy eyes.
"I got a peach of a record today,
Blair," Lane suggested in an effort to'
lift the shadows from his friend's
eyes.
"Let's have It," said Blair, and they
repaired to the room where the talking
machine gave forth Its fund of entertainment.
Blair sank Into the
chair that had become bis.
Mrs Lane ensconced herself and
turned to Blair. "You are to listen
to both of these records before you
Judge them. They are both by the
same person and Harry and I think
them splendid."
The machine burst forth Into a monologue.
The voice was the high falsetto
of a Broadway dandy whose experiences
along the great White Way
vt ere told In an Inimitable, drawling
manner that brought the hrst hearty
laugb to Blair that be bad had In
months.
"That fellow's all right," he laughed,
"let s have the other!"
"Remember," reminded Mrs. Lane,
"this Is the same 'fellow.'"
Blair sat back and prepared himself
for another funny record. When
Lane drew away from the machine

came from the cabinet wag that of
Iris.
"Dear," It said, "I have found that
there art- other things In life besides
the study of dramatic art. I have
taken all the prizes here and have received
ofTers for stage work, but?"
there was an effective pause?"you
are not here and nothing else counts.
When I said that life with you would
be monotonous?1 had not tried to
live without you?so If you still
care," the voice from the cabinet
trembled, "I will be In the summer
bouse tonight, and?"
Blair Jumped up to adjust the record,
thinking something had happened,
but that was all of It. He looked about
and realized that his host and hostess
had left bim to hear the message from
Iris. He took off the precious record
end went into the hall for hla hat and
walking stick In a daze of happiness.
When he left the house, still in that
semi-conscious state of mind, Mrs.
Lane ran to the telephone.
"He has left the house, dear," she
called out to the person at the other
end of the line, "and I think perhaps
you had better fly or he will be In
[ the summer house first. Run In tomorrow
and tell me all about It, dear.
Good-by."
Lane turned to his wife, a puzzled
look on his face. "Everything worked
teautlfully, but has Blair lost his
mind? He was talking away about
some platform in a drawing room,
or?"
A merry laugh tinkled from Mrs.
Lane's Hps. "It only means that he

has bought for Iris so that she can
have all the amateur theatricals she
wants."
"Happy Iris!" said Lane.

LESSON TEXT?Matt. 6:?37: James ?:
f-lt
GOLDEN TE>4T?"Putting away falsehood.
speak ye truth each man with his
neighbor; for we are members one of
another."?Eph. 4:25.
In tills lesson Jesus makes a still
further application, or rather gives us
another illustration of the righteousness
of his new kingdom, which must
be greater than that taught by the
Pharisees. We have studied the sacred
relations of the righteous life.
now we are to consider the matter of
truth. We have first a paragraph from
Jesus, then an ethical teaching and application
from the writings of James
the apostle.
Under the old law men swore by
heaven which Is God s throne, by the
earth which Is his footstool, by Jerusalem
which was bis peculiar chosen
city. They swore by the head and
yet they could not change one hair
white or black. Jesus contrasts all
of this with bis new kingdom in
which absolute simple veracity In our
speech Is all that Is to be required.
This makes all oaths profane. When
men live In these new relations, with
this new consciousness of God they
will speak the truth naturally and of
necessity. To such there will be no
need for any form of speech or oath,
for the simplest, plainest speech will
be the only necessary and the altogether
satisfactory medium of giving
and of creating assurance. How about
oaths In coi^rt? Jesus Is speaking to
the members of his new kingdom. Between
them yea and nay Is sufficient,
but as between them and others we
must adjust ourselves and therefore
we do not read into mis any ?uuiuu?tlon
not to take an oath In courtShould
Be Swift to Hear.
"Be not many teachers." We now
turn to a paragraph from the Epistle
of James which has Its peculiar value
and interest as showing the difficulty
of mastering the tongue. In the
church of Christ there must of necessity
be a great many more disciples
(learners) than teachers. Every man
should be swift to hear, but the position
of teacher carries with It such
a burden of responsibility that no one
should audaciously assaume it, see
Eph. 4:11, etc. With this responsibility
Is also a correspondingly heavier
Judgment If we stumble. He that
stumbles not In teaching, In the use
of his tongue, 1b Indeed a perfect man
and on? that Is able to bridle the
whole body; to g'ifde tue ship of life,
of state, and of the church, amidst
the fiercest storms.
"The tongue is a fire." It Is Indeed
for it Inflames with anger the
whole body, the family, society and
the nation. History is ablaze with the
conflagrations that are a consequence
of untimely words and of unbridled
tongues, Prov. 15:1, etc. The tongue
giving utterance to the thoughts of the
heart (for out of the abundance of the
heart it speaks), will Inflame lust,
wither purity and consume strength.
It fires Jealousy and burns the sweet
bonds of friendship. It win sever me
ties of home, burn away the foundations
of character, of commercial integrity,
social purity and destroy the
bonds of civic righteousness. It Is
Indeed "a world of iniquity among our
members." Let us quote from Dr. K.
A. Torrey: 'The fires of hell are
kindled by idle words that set men
thinking wrong about God and sin and
! Christ and the Bible. Men usually
careful In hand'ing fire are careless
about the tongue. Whence come the
words that Inflame the Imagination
and the passions? Whence come the
words that undermine faith and the
| credibility of the Bible? If any man
| question James' words that 'the tongue
can no man tame' he has evidently
never tried it himself." This does not
mean, however, that the tongue can
not be tamed, for what is Impossible
with man is possible with God. James
draws a frightful picture of the untamed
tongue and of its evil 'consequences.
He shows us that it has
proved a physical, moral, spiritual
eternal death to the whole circje of
life. He also draws attention to an!
other alternative, for With the tongue
we may also bless God. James is
the most intensely practical of the
New Testament writers and when he
alludes to the sixth commandment he
strikes at the root of the whole matter.
Profane Wen Classified.
"These things ought not to be."
No more can a fountain yield fresh
and salt water at one and the same
time, or a fig tree yield olives, than
for a Christian to bless God and with
the same tongue curse his fellow men.
Not only Is it unkind but it Is unChristlike.
Sarcasm means literally
"to tear flesh like dogs," the charioteer's
whip tore the flesh, so we use
the tongue as a lash, biting the sensitive
spirits of men; verily these things
"ought not to be." Phillips Ilrooks
said, "Tell me the words a man uses
and reproduce his tone of voice and
I'll tell what sort of man he is."
It is a literal fact that the truthful
man Is he w ho usually exemplifies all
other virtues and w> cannot emphasize
too strongly that no gentleman
swears. Profane men are ol
three classes; those who are thought
less, those who are Ignorant of language
and have a paucity of expres
slons at their command, and those
who use profanity to emphasize a lie
and generally the greater the lie the
more and strrrger the oaths. We must
not forget, however, tnai ny our si
j lence we may bear false witness and
1 that a positive obligation rests upon
i us to speak words of praise, coin
mendatlon, and comfort, that is near
ly, If not quite, as emphatic as the
negative admonition to keep silence
Verily he tnat "ftumbleth not" in
' words is- a perlect man. To make z
i promise carries with it an obligation
to perform; there can be no whitt
lies of extenuation nor excuses tot
! carelessness in performing to tht
very letter our dellnlte promises
This lesson Is a lesson to apply in al,
the walks and under every clrcurn
stance of life. We cannot make boIC
professions of love for God and llrt
a lie. We have no right to Eay one
thing to God and another.thing at varl
anCe with. .his. teachings to our iel
idw'man.' And- not'only will men Judgt

cuticura remedies
"Four years ago I had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not Beem to
give any relief. When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin Itched like
poison. I would scratch those places
until they would bleed before I could
get any relief. Afterwards the places
would scale over, and the flesh underneath
would look red and feverish.
| Sometimes It would begin to Itch until
it would waken me from my sleep,
and I would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.
Our physician pronounced it "dry
eczema." I used an ointment which
the doctor gave me, but it did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cuticura
Remedies. As this trouble has
been In our family for years, and Is
considered hereditary, I felt anxious
to try to head it off. I got the Cutlcura

From the time the eczema healed four
years ago, until now, I have never felt
any of its pest, and I am thankful to
the Cutlcura Soap and Ointment which
certainly cured me. I always use the
Cutlcura Soap for toilet, and I hope
other sufferers from skin diseases will
use the Cutlcura Soap and Ointment."

The Position for Her.
After speaking at great length on
the emancipation of women, a young
woman asked a statesman:
"Supposing women were admitted to
govern the affairs of the commonwealth,
what post would you assign to
j me?"
"The management of an institution
| for the deaf and dumb."
"Why that?"
"Because either these unfortunates
would learn to talk or you would learn
to keep quiet."

HEALTH FOR THE CHILD.
??
Tbe careful mother, watching closely
the physical peculiarities of her
children, soon learns that health is In
r. great measure dependent upon normal.
healthy, regular bowel action.
When the bowels are Inactive, loss of
appetite, restlessness during sleep, irritability
and a dozen and one similar
evidences qf physical disorder are soon
apparent.
- Keep the bowele free and clear and
good health fs assured. At the first
sign of constipation give the child a
teaspoonful of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin at bed-time and repeat the
dose the following night, if necessary.
You will find the child will quickly recover
its accustomed good spirits, and
eat and sleep normally.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable to salts, cathartics and
nnreuMve waters which are harsh in
their action. Syrup Pepsin acts on
the bowels easily and naturally, yet
positively, and causes no griping or
discomfort. Its tonic properties build
up the stomach, liver and bowels, restoring
their normal condition.
Druggists everywhere sell Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin In 50c and $1.00
bottles. If you have never tried this
remedy, send for a sample to Dr. W.
B. Caldwell, 201 Washington St., Montlcello.
111. He will gladly send a
trial bottle without any expense to
you whatever.

Looking to the Inevitable.
Seventy-nine years old, but with no
thought of dying for years, a South
Brooklyn retired windmill dealer spent
his recent birthday in Cleveland, O.,
looking for a bargain in coffins. He
said he never had cared much for
show and thought he would care less
when dead, so he wanted something
that would be durable, not fancy. "The
undertakers wanted more than $100
for good coffins," he told a friend,
"none of which looked to be worth
more than $50. For $25 I found I
could get one that loked as If It
might have cost $2.50 to make. You

would wait awhile and see if the high
cost of dying might not be reduced.
