she reminded him dispassionately. Her
eyes widened. “Ai.d now,” she con-
tinued, "we go up and up—spite that
stabs Its own heart; the lonely soul;
consuming fire, and, last and greatest
reason of all, Just love.” Iler eyes
glowed to some distant focus. “If all
myself, my honor, my past, and my
future dissolve to the single drop of a
present moment In the crystal cup of
love, then let me give myself to a
lover's lips for, once drained, nothing
will he left upon which to hang the
badge of slmme—nothing remain In
all the world hut the spirit and—and
the sacrifice.”
“Girl,” said Mr. Randolph, crushing
her to him as though he snatched her
hack from just beyond Ills clasp,
“where Is your mind wandering? What
have you been thinking? That I was
asking you to—to give yourself to
me?”
Her eyes came suddenly lo his face.
“Yes,” she said; “I thought that."
He stared at her for a long silent mo-
ment. his lips wavering nervously be-
tween pity and severity. A flush
swept over her fuee. and Into her eyes
crept a look of fear. “You don’t want
me?” she whispered; then, ns he did
not speak: “Kiss me. I wish you to
kiss me.”
There was something In her Insist-

Says New Jersey Woman
"I was nearly dead until I found
Eatonlc and I can truly say It saved
my life. It Is the best stomach medi-
cine ever made,” writes Mrs. Ella
Smith.
Acid stomach causes awful misery
which Eatonlc quickly gets rid of by
taking up and carrying out the acidity
and gases which prevent good diges-
tion. A tablet taken after meals brings
quick relief. Keeps the stomuch
healthy and helps to prevent the many
Ills so liable to arise from excess add.
Don’t suffer from stomach miseries
when you can get a big box of Eatonlc
for a trifle with your druggist’s guar-
antee.

the sealskins and blue and gray fox
pelts they sell mount higher and
higher. Those hits of frozen land in
Bering sea, whose total area Is less
than seventy square miles, have only
about 850 inhabitants, yet they are
being assailed by nil the aspirations
of prosperity and are beginning to
buy the most Interesting Items the
mail-order catalogues offer. So Uni-
ted States engineers are building
them Igloos of concrete, says Popular
Mechanics Magazine, thus substitut-

zone viewpoint, the most ephemeral.
The builders, however, are careful to
adhere closely to the native style of
architecture.
An interesting trade in the Carolina
mountain counties of Ashe, Alleghany

herbs, plants, roots, etc. Some fam-
ilies have for many years devoted all
their time to gathering thyse from the
mouutainsides, live in tents and move
from place to place until all the mate
rials in range are gathered. A con-
siderable number of farmers spend
part of their time in this line of work
and get more money than is paid in
wages in thnt region, while at the
same time livii g near to nature, the

HAD REHEARSAL OF FUNERAL
Curious Notion Held by Spanish Mon-
arch Concerning Ceremony in
Which He Would Figure.
^jhe nationally

Charles V. king of Spain and emperor
of Germany In the Sixteenth century,
was n pious ruler. Toward the end of
liis life he conceived the curious Idea
of rehearsing Ills own funeral, not be-
cause he wished to have the event go
off without a hitch when the time
should come, hut because he thought
the performance of the ceremony
would redound to the credit and well-
being of Ills soul in the after-world.
Ills friends sought to dissuade him,
hut, deeming It a holy act, the ruler
went abend with his preparations. A
catafalque was erected and Ihe serv-
ice performed. The high altar, the
catafalque, and the entire church
shone with wax lights; the friars were
all In their proper places nnd the
household of the emperor attended In
deep mourning. "The pious monarch
himself was there, attired In snide
weeds,” according to the monkish his-
torian. "and hearing a tnper. to see
himself Inferred and to celebrate h!s
own obsequies." While the mass for
the dead was sung, he came forward
nnd gave his taper to tin* officiating
priest as n symbol of his desire to
yield up his soul. Not only once, but
