First Religious Book in America. the American continent was Roman Catholic bishop there, and bears date 1615 The first religious book published on printed in the City of Mexico by order of the This was the first work of any kind from movable type issued in the new world In point of col- nights holding their distracted heads and bemoaning Rodney's fate, for they were positive that matrimony, and perhaps an elopement, would crown the affair. The little candy girl thought so too, for when Rodney of a sudden calmly | announced that everything was over between them she talked of a breach of promise suit after she had finished weeping and asking why he dida't love her any more. To the latter query Rodney had bent a studious mind and had finally delivered the verdict that he was blessed if he knew. Apparent- ly his affections came and went with the wind. After that follawed love affairs with a long series of girls. Finally Rod- ney’s family became so accustomed to this sentimental state that they went right on with their usual three meals a day and paid no attention to it, If Rodney was not at the point where he had at last found the girl of his heart and everything was settled he was at the next point where of a sudden he had decided that it was all a mistake and he did not really care for that par- ticular girl. Finally he met Stella. She had paused for a few days in the city on her way to her home in San Francisco or Seattle or Reno or some point in the distant west. Rodney instantly fell a victim to her charms. Stella was one of those girls who are g0 slim that you think them skin- ny until you observe that instead they are merely lithe and willowy. You think her only moderately good look- ing until you dissect her face and con- clude that there never before were black eyes quite so big, skin quite so white and fine and lips so clearly cut, As for her slow smile—well, that was positively irresistible, Rodney rushed out to San Francisco or Seattle cr Reno or wherever it was, Just two weeks after Stella left. He said he had business out there and he had. His business was to fall still more deeply in love with Stella, Soon there came a day when, loitering un- der the trellised arbor in her yard, he told her how he felt and that he want- ed her to marry him, There is no reason to blame Stella for, liking him, because Rodney is cminently likable and his wooing had been spectacular and therefore attrac- tive. She said yes—and Rodney de- parted on air, because he simply had to go back home, The next morning Stella got a tele- gram from him, sent from the train on which he was speeding eastward. It read: “Consider it all a mistake and at an end. Am miserable. Will write.” By the time the startled Stella had got Rodney's explanatory letter and perused it and completely failed to un- derstand it, Rodney had discovered to his alarm that he did not experience his usual elation, at being free from an cntanglement. He had a heavy heart and a yearning which he finally figured out was a desire to see Stella again. He really loved her! Expense not having to be consid- ered by Rodney, he traveled back to the coast and metaphorically cast him- self at Stella's feet, Stella smiled her slow, sweet smile, regarded him mus- ingly and then practically summoned | the gardener to sweep him out with the other rubbish. Rodney went and sat by the sea after that and med!- [== tated upon death and raved at him- self. Stella regularly hung up the re- celver whenever ghe found him on the phone, so after a while he returned home, a blighted being. FEverybody knew he was a blighted belng because he made no secret of it. Stella was his only thought and his sole conversational topic, till finally his family struck. They told him to clear out and go and marry Stella by main force or else fall in love with some one else before he returned home. So he hunted up Stella, Rodney was very much in earnest | Brick Lime Cement | i Plaster %G TO SEE US! the Paul & Waymer Lumber Company Office: Foot of Main Street, City PRICES RIGHT SERVICE RIGHT NOW L3 City Atto Keeper of Py PPEGPPPDPPSPPIPPeddP [ 1:00 p. m., second and fourth Sun- days SIS Members of (oun "fi"r'- )0, Catholic Church, Munn, CLai — Vice-Chuirm 0 Rev.
