Mrs Splint looked at hi in k^H-nly.
Then sho made a bold move.
"I should think you're get tin'

marked.
The doctor glanoed at her^qulckly,
but sho met his gaze without flinch-
ing.
"What do you mean?" he anked.
"What I saf; you'd be happier If
you could make up your mind to
marry again."
The man blghod.
"You knew Madeline, Mrs. Splint,"
ho said at last, "and you know that
my heart died with her."
Mrs. Splint gave vent to an Internal
"Humph!" Aloud she said nothing.
8he had, indeed, known Madeline
Garde from childhood. A beautiful,
spoiled little creature, who had, soon
after her marriage, developed into a
capricious invalid. She know also
how this groat, strong man had
htmored his exacting little wife, and
been her untiring Blavo during the
five years of their married life.
Sho looked now Into his dark face
and saw that a new expression had
come Into It.
"It would not be right," he said
slowly.
"What would not?"
Suddenly he faced her.
"Would it bo right? You are a
woman; tell me, would I be justified
in marrying when there is so little I
could give In return for any woman's
companionship?"
Mrs. Splint looked at him steadily.
She wished he could see what was In
her mind without her telling him.
He sat very still for a while and
Jane Splint, being a wise woman, did
cot Interrupt his thoughts. At length
he rose and put his hat firmly on his
head.
"1 think I win go and bring Heater
home," ho said.
When Hester Maxwell entered her
Cent's sitting-room an hour later
there was a glorified look, in her eyes
whjch lent a strange beauty to her
face.
"Aunt Jane," she said quietly, "I am
engaged to be married to Dr. Garde."
"For the land's sake!" Mrs. Splint's
knitting dropped In her lap and sev-
eral studies slipped. She hAd not ex-
pected this so soon.
"Say yon arc glad, aunt!"
"Indeed I am," that lady replied
truthfully, while she gently stroked

The engagement was a short one.
If she missed anything hi his manner

months of their married life, no one.

Nettie stepped into the wann sJt-

quick, eavlous glance.
"My! but you're getttn1 quite ft*ed

there was something In love after

Every one nisTied up to see what

OKLAHOMA
A State that is not Provided with
a Penitentiary or a State-House
has created a Constitution the length of
a popular novel, and fully as interesting.
It is as though they had built a ship of state with
turbine engines, instead of masts and sails.
Its Founders
claim that it is the first real democracy, the pioneer
in the experiment of a true form ot republican
government.
Its Detractors
assert that visionaries and radicals from all over
the other States have poured in and consolidated
their theories into a hodge-podge that is certain to
result in everlasting ruin.
What a real up-to-date
Twentieth-Century State
Constitution
planned to meet the modern economic conditions
is, is set forth by Frederick Upham Adams
