An Unexplained Letter That
Caused Many Unhappy Days.

I
To be sure, it was the rflost absurd
Ihing in the world, ray going into ec-
itasics over that stuffy little flat where
Ted and I first weut to housekeeping;
Dut taking nnto consideration raj' for-
ner life it is not to be wondered at. ■
An orphan, dependent upon an aged
lunt >vho had begrudged me the very
bite I ate, I was determined to make my
nay in the world, coming to the great
•ity of New York to eke out a scantjT
subsistence as a teacher of music. A
iheerless furnished room with meals in
i third-class restaurant to a girl scarcely
>ut of her teens, this mode of living
possessed but little romance or poetrj'.
1 must tell j*ou how I met Ted. One
>f my pupils requestedj as a special
favor, that I drop into B-‘s on my
nra.v homeward, and match some velvet.
remember the color, a peculiar shade
>f green, and how extremely polite the
ialesman was. You see it was Ted. He
aad fallen in love at first sight, he told
ne afterward, and asked me if I did not
,hink it stupid of him when I asked for
p*eeu that he should have shown me
irushed strawberrj'. But then, people
n love make just such mistakes.
•‘This piece,*' he said, holding up the
’olds of rich velvet, “is the nearest we
lave.”
1 took my glove off in order to be bet-
.er able to judge the quality. In com*
raring the sample our hands touched;
. raised ray ej'es to meet a pair of hon-
est brown ones gazing down with un-
signed admiration.
My success us a shopper led to my pu-
)il*s frequently requesting me to step
nto B-*s. In this way Ted and 1
lad an opportunity to become acquaint-
'd. An attachment sprung up between
is that soon ripened into love. He
isked me to become his wife instraight-
orward. honest fashion, telling me of
»is ambitions for tlie future. He had
ittle to offer but his love. What more
•ould I ask? I told him “Yes.”
My worldly possessions comprised ,
me trunk, which 1 carefully packed I
ind sent to rnj’ future home. Nothing I
w low remained but to inform mj’ “sour- 1
risaged” landlady that 1 was going, re- j
•eiving in reply the shortest andcurtest
>f: “Very well, miss: suit yourself. "
►Ve were married quietly in the little
parsonage across the street, one bright i
Homing, with the sunlight falling
ithwart my dress of plain serge, devoid
if all ornamentation save a bunch of j
lowers—a gift from the groom. Ted’s
.ncome would not permit us to indulge
.n the luxuries of a bridal tour. \\ e
went directly to our new home. How
bright it was in comparison to that
dingj* furnished room. NN hat a bright
little kitchen, with a wonderful wood- j
box of Ted's own invention, so ar-
ranged with gay chintz that it served
ts a settee as well.
“Both useful and ornamental, like
you, my little wife,” said my husband,
itooping to kiss me fondly.
A bright fire burned in the sitting-
room. as it was still cold weather, Ted
tiaving made arrangements with the
janitress to have everything in readi-
ness for my homecoming, even to the
great willow rocker drawn close to the
fire, and the canary that seemed to pour
forth a song of welcome.
To a girl accustomed to the luxuries
Df a home, who left it with a mother's
kiss, a father's blessing, Ted’s humble
riforts would be as naught. The walls
might prove cramped and mean, the
stairway a trifle dark and steep; but to
me, coming from that cheerless lodging
house, it was all sunshine, and, throw-
ing my arms about Ted s neck, 1 wept
for very joy.
We ate our meal in silence. One lit-
tle cloud had come across what had
hitherto been a cloudless s^ky.
“I am going mwt *>n business,” said
my husband, kissing me rather coldly,
I- thought. What business, I reasoned,
could call him away from home? The
letter lay at my feet in fragments.
Would 1 place them together and ascer-
tain its contents? No; my honor for-
bade inc 4.0 do that. One little scrap
arrested my attention. It was the sig-
nature, and it read: ‘‘Elsie Grey.”
Who was the woman who dared to
write t > my husband—my Ted? Per-
haps some designing woman was
tempting him from his wife and home.
He could have married better perhapi

later on in life Without a wife he
might be better able to “rise” in the
world: and 1 thought and argued with
myself, poor, foolish little woman that
I was, that I was but a mill stone
dragging him down.
The days and weeks lengthened.
Another letter came from Elsie Grey.
1 asked for no explanation; i received
none; but the gulf was growing wider
and wider. I never weut to meet Ted
in the hallway as in former days, and
once, when he bent to kiss me I turned
my face away.
I made aconfidante of my neighbor in
the fiat below, a noisy, talkative wom-
an, who came well-nigh destroying ray
domestic happiness for life.
“Mark you,” she said, holding up a
warning finger, “that letter lias come
for no good. Take my advice, and if
he don’t stop his capers pack up and go
home. Yes, leave him.” she cried, with
animation. “You might as well now
as later.”
Home! I looked at her in surprise as
I answered, sadly:
“l have none.”
“Poor child!” she said, pityingly. “If
you only had a brother to give him a
good horse whipping.”
The idea of anj’one thrashing my
handsome, manly Ted appeared so
touching that I burst into tears, where-
upon inj' listener proclaimed me at once
to be “just the style of woman to be I
imposed upon,” in fact a little simple- I
ton. She even suggested that in the J
absence of home ami brother there was
nothing left but a desperate flirtation
to bring him to terms.
Looking back I bad one thing to
thank my not over-generous relative
for; that she had brought me up in the
fear of God, and the evil counsel of ray
neighbor failed to lure me from the
path of dutj’.
We had been married one year. Tel
had received promotion. We still lived
in the little flat in Harlem. Perhaps in
a J'ear or two we could afford better
quarters: as yet we must be content.
The holidays were approaching,
remember 1 was embroidering a pair of j
clippers for Ted, and I had such difli- ,
culty lo keep them out of sight. I i
wanted to surprise him. A gift loses
The day before Christmas; the ground
! covered with a deep coat of snow. Far
up in my little fiat I could hear the
faint jingling of the sleighbells in the
street below. The few little sparrows
that ventured up so high stood picking
the crumbs from the window ledge.
What comfort I found in these little
j brown .birds. 1 told them all my trials.
1 They proved better confidants than my
i garrulous neighbor below. They
I seemed to listen with little heads
turned thoughtfully one side, lingering
' but a moment, then flying home to
; their nest, that 1 knew was far happier
! than mine.
We had a quarrel that morning, Ted
and I. It was our first tiff. All through
the breakfast we sat in silence. When
he stooped to kiss me. a lurking demon
must have been aroused, as I exclaimed
j fiercely:
“Do not dare to kiss me! Go and kiss
that other woman1”
He said not a word; only looking re-
proachfully at me. he left the house to
go to that great, busy, bustling store,
to put up with many trials and annoy-
ances with no word of comfort.
“Suppose,” l thought, “that some-
thing dreadful should happen to Ted.
Could I ever forgive myself for my an-
ger? Surely I might have asked for an
explanation. If lie refused, then I would
be justified in my conduct.”
I was startled from#my meditations
by a violent ringing of the doorbell.
“A dispatch,” thought I. “I have 'j
j j driven him to something desperate.
“Here’s a pretty mesa!
all gone.”
The speaker was one of a party of
four New York sportsmen who, with
an equal number of guides, had been
cruising about on the west branch of
the l’enobscot. but were now camping
on the shores of Chamberlain lake pre-
paratory to returning to northeast
Carry. They had been out longer than
they had planned, and some of the sup-
plies had become exhausted.
Then turning to the guides, who
were lying at full length on the ground
quietly enjoying the young blood s dis-
comfiture, lie asks: “Isn t there a
farmhouse or hotel near where we could
buy some?”
“Depends on what you call near,”
replied a woodsman. “If you don’t
reckon forty miles far, then we are
near a house, but that's about the dis-
tance—maybe a trifle more. \ ou want
milk powerful bad, don’t you? Well,
you fill upon water to-night and maybe
in the morning 1 can accommodate you,
though, mind you. I don t promise! *
“You'll have to get a move on you.
said one of the other guides, “it you
are going to try to make the t arry
’tween this and to-morrow *—well
knowing that the journey in that time
was impossible—“for, blast me. An-
nancc. if 1 know where you're going to
find the color of milk nearer than
that.”
Annanee made no response, but
puffed silently at his favorite pipe. He
had an idea, though, that he could get
some milk, but he did not mean to tell
how.
That night, unnoticed, he left the
camp about sunset, walked slowly
through tin* woods for about a mile,
and again came out on tin* shore of the
lake at a point where a small stream
formed an outlet.
This was near the place where he
had seen the cow moose, and here he
took up his position beside a trail lead-
ing to the water’s edge, and along
which lie could sc , if his knowledge of
woodcraft did not deceive him, that
the moose was in tlie habit of passing.
In this he was correct, for the guide
had not been there more than an hour
when lie heard the sound of some ani-
mal approaching, and peering cautious-
ly through the bushes he saw a cow
moose making for the pool.
The animal sniffed the air a few
times as.she passed within a dozen paces
of the hunter, but otherwise she did not
show signs of alarm. She was soon in
the water ridding herself of the fleas
and quenching her thirst.
W hile the moose was disporting her-
self Annanee left his position behind
the bush and walked a few steps to-
ward her, and whenever she turned he
would stand perfectly motionless.
By repeating this operation several
times he managed to reach the edge of
the lake without alarming the moose.
As soon as* the animal showed any
signs of leaving the water the guide
retreated a few steps. Once or twice
did the moose raise her head and look
at him. only, however, to resume her
clumsy frolics.
Presently the moose made toward the
shore, and Annanee concealed himself
behind the brush again. At the edge
of the lake the animal turned to take a
last hu»k and shake the spray from her
nose. Then she udvaneed slowly up
the sloping bank. When opposite the
guide he snifted something, stopped
and looked around.
That was the guide's chance, and he
knew it.
The critical moment V.ad arrived, and
with one quick but silent movement he
was by the animal's side. She did not
move except to turn her head and look
1 at him. Annanee kept near her liind-
I quarters, well-knowing that if he got
I in front of the moose he would not
stand much chance should she become
I ugly.

It never fails to make good bread, biscuit and

A “Ilm-nliiR lilans" Mailt* of lee.
A few years ago an English professor
caused quite a little excitement among
a party of skaters on Serpentine river
by making u lens of ice and lighting hia
pipe with it. This reminds the writer
that this curious experiment was first
brought before the public by the great
Dr. Seoresbv. who, when in the polar
regions, to the great astonishment of
his companions (who did not under-
stand why the ice did not freeze the
solar rays), performed a similar feat.
It may also he worthy of remark that
prof. Tyndall, when a teacher in the
Royal institute, on several occasions set
fire to little heaps of powder with rays
from an electric an* concentrated by a
lens of ice. His explanation was this:
Although ice absorbs rnvs of certain
waves of light and is gradually melted
thereby, there are other kinds of waves
which it does not absorb, and it is these
that produce heat at the focus of the
bar of light which passes through the
ice. In short, it is wholly a question
of the relative motions of the molecules
of frozen water and those of the waves
of the more penetrating rays of light.—

KNOWLEDGE
Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet-
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the world’s best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas-
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial projicrties of a perfect lax-
ative; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and levers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid-
