TIFFANY. ftil man won old and bfOlWW >" Hplcit. 11!m llfo had been a failure, a? all IIvob are, measured by the degree In which they fulttll the dreams of youth. ! At two and-twenty ho had mistaken the flush of onthuulabiu for the fire of genius. After a <juarter of u cen tury's devotion to small parts In third rate theatrical companies, be had been ! forced to the conclusion that a man KotM 110 more, or lea*, than hl? lal>or iu worth; and that his own labor was worth very little. Ilia wlfo had been beautiful. Now, wan a poor, faded, common-place creature. Her UIuhIouu, too, were all Kone, like her beauty; and, worse than that, the man'H Illusions In regard to h?*r wer*j dead alao. She had no more talent for acting ; than had he; and they both knew It now. Of gentle bfrth, she still retained ? Bome tracea of refinement, In spito of her long aojourn In Jtohenila. Hut the novelty, the charm, the mystery of the llfo wero gone. I Every Illusion had been destroyed, nave one; and to that they clung with desperate tenacity. At an early period ! iu their married life the man had j conceived a great literary project. "I've been thinking, Evelyn," he had ) ?ald one day, Jlof writing a historical account of tho?drama from its first In \ ceptlon down to the present day. Imaglno the possibilities of Buch a work!" "Splendid!" the woman had ex claimed. "Why don't you begin at once?" And he had begun that very day. He knew then that It waa no mean task, i thlB that he had aet himself. It meant J much reading, research, condensing, ' writing, re-writing and writing again. : Not a book that a man could rattle off In six months or a year. The one Illusion that tho hard reali ties of life had failed to dissipate was tills: That though both were failures at acting, yet one day the man was 1 to achieve fame for himself and a | competence for them both by the pub lication of his great history of the drama ? tho dedication to a grateful i world of hie life's work. ! For twenty years and more ho had | stuck stoically to" his task. Often the last nickel went for pa per, whilfe the children were crying for bread. Present necessities were forgott'en, or ignored, In the anticipa tion of comforts to be bought through tho sale of Reginald's life work, i "I have finished it at last, Evelyn," the* man announced one day ? one day vwhllo they wore in Baltimore. "X have finished my life's work." For three months he awaited tho ? publishers' decision, calling upon them I at Intervals, only to be told that his | manuscript would receive tho earliest i attention possible. Three long, weary j anxious months; and then the . man j took to ills bed in a high fever. Ho ; was delirious, and raved about his | book. "Finished, finished!" he would shout I exultingly. "I have finished my life's ? work!" ? and another time he would repeat the same words, with a wall of anguish and despair. Then tho woman passed her cooling hand across his brow, and sought to comfort him by saying his life's work was only just begun. One evening as he lay helpless on his pillow, the crimson rays of the sotting sun shone suddenly into tho room and lighted up his pallid face, handsome even in emaciation. He started up to^his elbow, with wide staring eyes, exclaiming: "Finished ? finished! I have fin ished my life's work. I am going homo." And the tears that welled to Eve lyn's eyes had fallen from them to her cheeks, she looked once more upon his face and saw Ills words wero true. Tho man was dead. He had finished his life's work. He had gone borne. And while tho woman sat in silent grief, gazing on the dead face of him whom she had loved so well, there camo a gentle tap upon tho door. It was Mr. Hayes, an elderly gentle man from tho publishers' office, who had called once or twice before to in qulro after the health of the author of the bulky manuscript. "At last, my dear lady," he Laid, "I am able to report that our house has accepted your husband's life work." "Your house?" the woman echoed, failing at first to recognize her visitor or comprehend hie meaning ? tho one, cruel sense of widowhood overwhelm ing all things else. Then, as the recollection of the fatal book that had supped her hus band's lifo away came back to her with bitter memories, sho said: "Your house? Too late ? too late! Ho has gone to another house. There his life'n work can be Judged tho boat. His llfo work will bo accepted or re jected, in his father's house." (Copyright, by ]>ntly Story Pub. Co.) i Something to Think About.

"FVel the muscles of my neck," D'Or say said. "Put your fingers around my throat." The other gripped D'Oraay's throat while the latter set hie teeth ! and contracted all tho musclee.
