There ia no public demand and there is not the slightest public necessity for a law compelling the publication of the formula of proprietary medicines, says the Committee on Legislation of the Proprietary Association. Every Health Commissionet and every Pure Food Commissioner In the country, as well as every private physician or chemist, if he pleases, has the right to make an analysis of any proprietary medicine and to publish the result and to tell the public what he thinks, and there Is nothing in the world to prevent each action.

How it recalled the hut had jears of my youth during which I wild suwu a rather profuse crop of oats. At that time those scented notes, some pink, some blue, soma lavender, had formed the bulk of my correspondence and had carried with them the delightful touch of intrigue which a wild youih would naturally crave. But why should I receive one I, a married man? I turned the letter over three or four times, then tore It open and read the following words written In n crumpted handwriting I had never seen before: Dear Old Tony Though it may be folly to make surh invitation to n married man, I risk it any way. 1 will be this evening at 10:30 in room No. 16 of the Bon Ton Cafe and will wait One who loves you. for you. Z." I was astounded. What could this mean? Who was this mysterfous Z who could he so bold as to make such rendezvous at the Bon Ton, one of the gayest restaurants of the city! In my younger days I wouldn't have hesitated a second but now I bad a wife, a weak, babyish, clinging creature, whose childish ways were somewhat tiresome, that's tme, but whom I deeply loved. I crushed the note with an impatient gesture, then lit a match and watched it burn, a righteous frown upon my brow. Such follies were not for me. I would not go. By six o'clock I had changed my mind and had persuaded myself that my very life depended upon my going to that rendezvous. For the first time since my marriage I waa embarrassed before my wife during the dinner, which I barely tasted. I could only to her gay, reply in monosyllables childish prattle. When dinner was over, and as the maid removed the dishes, she came and sat on the arm of my chair and with her fingers tried to erase the frown which my conflicting thoughts had caused to gather on my brow. Is my darling worried about something?' she asked, as her blonde head nestled on my shoulder. I replied, thankYes, sweetheart, ful that her eyes were lower and she could mg see my face. I am more than worried, for 1 am deeply disappointed. I had planned, to spend the evening with you,- - as usual, but a business appointment 'with a man from out of town will call me back to the office this evening, and It may he midnight maybe later before I can get home. With her eyes still averted from mine, but with a little quiver of the body, like a child about to sob, she aid in disappointed tones: You surely are not going out again Cant that horrid business wait until A married man should stay home with his wife." That last sentence sounded as a reproach to my already alarmed conscience, but I again forced It to alienee by assuring myself that my sole violet-scente- d to-da- MACHINERY.

Instead of taking the car, I decided to walk down town. It waa yet two hours to the appointed time and I wanted to collect my thoughts. I did not feel at my ease, I knew I was doing wrong, yet I felt powerless to resist, and I walked and bit discontent edly at my cigar. When I reached the business part of the city it waa still too early so I amused myself by walking past the lighted stores and watching the crowd which passed and repaased in never ceasing flow. So keen was my preoccupation that I forgot myself In the maze of my thoughts and only returned to reality when my eyes encountered the white (Hal of a street clock, and I saw that this Indicated twenty-eigh- t minutes past ten.- - I reached the Bon Ton cafe just aa the clock struck the half nsur.
