Young Howard observed these rules for four years, married the girl and is now “a model husband.” It is a beautiful story, as is also that one about “Jack and the Beanstalk.” Only, ‘tis to be feared that this beauty, like most others, is just skin deep. A man who will let a woman lay down his rules of conduct before marriage and faithfully live up to them after he has got her is something more than a model husband—he's a model angel, and as rare as the dodo. Of course, most men are angels about the time of their marriage, but any wife will testify that they speedily outgrow it, very largely. There are a large number of cases indicat- ing that the fellow who lets his sweetheart run his eating, drinking, sleeping and so forth, runs such things himself, with much fierceness, after their marriage. Mrs. Osborn’s rules are fine—save as to that naked toast breakfast—but possession does make such a difference, the variance between anticipation and acquisition is usually so pro- nounced, that time alone can demonstrate that she " who can't wa has actually landed a real model.

Came a youth, worldly wise, well dressed and well off, if one might judge from the character of the impedimenta carried by the two bell boys following—golf sticks, sporting rifles, etc. As he approached the office, with that air of self assurance which sets so wefl upon the American youth of wealth, he seemed the personification of fortune-favored young manhood. But as I looked again at closer range, a slight flush, a little droop to the athletic shoulders, more than all,-the hopeless, homesick look in the young eyes, betrayed him to me and to the watchful clerk. I heard the low- voiced dialogue; 1 could not help it, as it was at my elbow. “Pardon me, sir,’ said the clerk, very, very kindly, | thought, ‘We cannot take tubercular guests. There’s a sanitarium here that is quite all right.’ The youth flushed, his boyish mouth quiv- ered, the blue eyes filled with the hurt expression of a scolded child, but he answered bravely: “Very well, I will go there.’ “Oh! the horror of it.

That's why we present it. THE KILLING OF YOUNG FRISELL CCORDING to Prosecutor Carmody, it was a bullet from the gun of Special Officer Gouley that killed young Carl Frisell, and ‘it will be Gouley who will probably be prosecuted. As a matter of fact, it was purely an accident that it was Gouley’s bullet and not a shot from the gun of the city policeman who accompanied Gou- ley, that killed the boy. In the fact that they fired any shots in a case of such trivial importance lies the guilt of both of them—and one is as guilty as the other. Neither of them knew that young Frisell was guilty of any offense, As a matter of fact, if he were guilty of anything, it was an offense of a very minor nature. A few boys were in a street scrap. was injured badly. The affair could have passed without police attention, as have hundreds of similar cases. Yet here come a regular policeman and a spe- cial policeman and make free use of their guns— and an innocent boy is killed. A system which tolerates such an abuse of gun power is radically wrong.
