He had just asked her to marry him,
but even when he took her In his arms
and kissed her gently, as a brother
might have done, Mllly felt that she
was being cheated of her birthright.
For It Is the sum and substance of ev
ery girl’s life to love and to be loved,
and Mllly knew Instinctively, ns It Is
always given to girls to know, that
while Dick Carter passively held her
there In his arms lie was thinking of
Juanita Estes and of what a joy he
would have experienced In possessing
her. But Juanita had wantonly jilted
him six months before.
Since the-days when she was hailed
by boisterous schoolmates as "Freckle
Face” because of the fine dusting of
brown flecks across the bridge of her
pretty nose, Mllly had loved Dick, and
because of that love of ten years’
growth she had felt a comforting sense
of possibility when she heard the wel
come news of Ills Jilting by the proud,
cold heauty, Juanita. With no com
punction of conscience, Mllly had set
herself the happy task of comforting
him and now he had asked her to
marry him, but Mllly did not feel the
wild elation of heart ami spirit that
she Imd so hopefully anticipated. Af
ter nil, sin* reflected, as she stood
there, her cheek resting lightly against
Ills regularly beating heart, she had
gambled with the odds against her
and she had won him, but she had lost
the thrill of that great moment In ev
ery girl’s life when the heat of a man’s
passion kindles the fire of her own.
Suddenly she remembered old Grand
ma Winston’s eagerly proffered ad
vice. "Two people never love each oth
er In tin* same degree. It’s safer to
marry a man who loves you better
than you love him.”
"You are going to marry me. Mllly,
dear, aren’t you?” questioned -Dick In
that rich, throaty voice of bis to which
the cords of her heart had always re
sponded like the strings of a musical
Instrument to the hands of a master.
"Oh, yes, Dick, you know that I will.
I have always loved you.” she answered
without n moment’s hesitation. Then
was hurt, humiliated over her con-
ion. for Dick bad not said that he
loved her. lie bad merely told her that
she was the very finest girl he knew
ml that It would make him very hap
py indeed If she would marry him.
But he held her a little closer at that
and n flush crept over his face. "I
don’t deserve you, Milly.” he said
thickly, "hut I ntn going to try mighty
hard to make you happy.”
And Mllly, with age-old wisdom, out
of the mother heart of every woman
who loves truly and Is therefore forget
ful of self, slipped her arms around his
shoulders In utter abandonment of
pride to help ldtn through what she
felt was a trying situation, lie was
giving her tho best that he could offer.
Fate had cheated him just as it was
cheating her. and more than anything
else in tho world, sin* wanted her love
for him too help him, to comfort him, to
make him forget tin* girl who had held
the priceless boon of his love so light
ly.

false teeth are better than no teeth at

Frequently a chorus girl’s success
depends upon her understanding.
"What kind of a ring do you want,
dear?” he asked then. "I want you to
have it before the dance tomorrow
night. If,” he smiled down at her whim
sically, "If you will do me the hopor to
wear it then.”
"I’ll love to wear it, Dick. I want h
solitaire. If that suits you. A gold
band, hut the stone mounted tn plat
inum,” she answered directly.
"You’re so sensible. Milly. You’re
going too make me a wonderful wife.”
She knew why he wanted her to
have the ring before the tiext night.
Juanita would he there, home from a
six-months’ visit in New York, where
she had promptly taken herself after
jilting Dick.
Mllly had always been much more
economical than she really needed to
be, and when her mother chided her
about her lack of Interest In new
clothes, the girl had always told her
that she was going to he nil old maid
and that her parents would have to
support her ns long as she lived. It
was not like having a daughter who
would soon l>e married ami off their
hands for life, she said.
Her mother, of course, was thrilled
over her engagement. She was be
ginning to fear that Milly would in
deed be an old maid, which state of af
fairs Invariably seems to hurt the
mother more Ilian the daughter. It Is
a sort of shock to their own pride to
feel that they have produced sonic-
ihlng--\vhieh no man wants. Milly’s
mother was delighted when, the next
morning at breakfast, the girl ex
pressed a desire for a new evening
dress. '"Something really nice, moth
er, and a handsome wrap.”
No homely girl can dress up and
suddenly appear to be a ravishing
beauty., but fine feathers make fine
birds, and a masseuse, hairdresser and
really gifted buyer for a ready-to-wear
shop certainly did do wonders to Mll
ly on that momentous day. Dick actu
ally blinked his eyes a bit as he stood
at the foot of the stairway and
watched her walk slowly down. She
wore an apple-green tulle dress with c
long floating veil caught at the shoul
ders and worn like n court train. Her
vellow bull" was held high bn her head
of ermine around her and them caught
her close to him with arms that trem
bled a little. Happiness lighted her
eyes and curved her smiling lips.
"You’re beautiful, MIll.v,” he said,
and then added, unsteadily, "and
you’re mine. You o.ake me think of
spring, eternal spring, and apple trees
In bloom.”
She had made a good beginning, Mll
ly thought, as he slipped his arm
bock of her in the automobile and
bending toward her, whispered, "Let’s
go home a little early. I’d like you all
to myself for a while.”
But her period of happiness was
doomed to be short. Juanita was al
ready In the ballroom, regal, superb in
sheathlike white satin, and from the
time Dick entered the room everybody
there was Instantly aware of the aston
ishing fact that Juanita had evidently
changed her mind again and that she
not only openly wanted Dick, but that
she had also decided to take him. That
It would not be an effortless task was
a foregone conclusion, for everybody
knew that Dick had adored her and
that he had been crushed when she
had jilted him.
Mllly was instantly surrounded, for
men naturally gravitate toward beauty
ns flowers grow toward the sun, but
she was not so entirely surrounded
that she did not hear Juanita’s soft
voice murmur to Dick: "Dick, dear,
I’ve missed you terribly. See, I’ve
saved half of my dances for you.”
In the ear turned n little toward
the two Mllly heard Dick say: "Well,
you’re mighty kind, but I’m fully up.
nil but one,” and Dick’s voice was re
assuringly steady. There was not a
hint of regret In It.
Even when the news of their engage
ment. spread like a little running for
est fire In the dead leaves of small
talk. Juanita still angled for Dick.
Milly’s heart under the soft green tulle
was as heavy ns lead. She was Just
n dog in the manger. She could never
make Dick happy, and she was keep
ing him from Juanita, who could crown
bis life with Joy. Behind some palmfe
that screened them from the ballroom
where they were sitting out a dance,
Mllly turned to Dick and. stripping off
her shining new engagement ring, said
heroically: "Dick, you’ve always
loved Juanita. I want you to he hap
py. Nothing else matters to me.”
She was wholly unprepared for what
followed, for Dick seized her. In arms
that appeared to have been hungering
for her for untold ages. He kissed
her with a passion that kindled the
fire of her own. His heart pounded
like the heavy waves of an angry sen.
"Olv, Mllly, girl,” ho said brokenly, "I
love you more than I ever loved any
body before. I never dreamed that
there could be a girl In the world for

unselfish. I think that I have been In

happily, but there were tears In her

little pink palm that fluttered In his
hand like a homing bird.

IS "SPRINTER” AMONG BIRDS
AutrtrpHan Emu Unable to Fly but
Gets Over the Ground With
Remarkable Speed.
"The emu Is a large bird, half the
size of an ostrich,” says Lee S. Cran
dall. curator of birds in the New York
zoological park, writing of “The Trou
bles of Father Emu” in Boys’ Life.
"Tt is found only in Australia, where
there is also a closely related bird—
the cassowary* The wings are rudi

to fly. But it does not suffer from
this lack, for Its strong legs enable
it to run with great speed and agility.

“The voice of the emu is a resonant

For more than Forty Years
Cotton Growers have known that
POTASH PAYS
More than 11,651,200 Tons of Potash Salts
had been imported and used in the United
States in the 20 years previous to January,
1915, when shipments ceased. Of this
6,460,700 Tons consisted of
KAINIT
which the cotton grower knew was both a
plant food and a preventive of blight and
rust,—with it came also 1,312,400 Tons of
20 per cent
MANURE SALT
which has the same effects on Cotton, but which
was used mainly in mixed fertilizers.
Shipments of both Kainit and Manure Salt have
been resumed but the shortage of coal and cars and
high freight rates make it more desirable to ship
Manure Salt, which contains 20 per cent of actual
Potash, instead of Kainit, which contains less than
13 per cent actual Potash.
MANURE SALT can be used as a side dressing
on Cotton in just the same way as Kainit and will
give the same results. Where you used 100 pounds
of Kainit, you need to use but B2 pounds of Manure
Salt, or 100 pounds of Manure Salt go as far as 161
pounds of Kainit.
MANURE SALT has been coming forward in
considerable amounts and cotton growers, who can
not secure Kainit, should make an effort to get
Manure Salt for side dressing to aid in making a
big Cotton Crop.
Muriate of Potash
50 per cent actual Potash, has been coming forward
also,—100 pounds of Muriate are equivalent to 400
pounds of Kainit or 250 pounds of Manure Salt.
These are the three
Standard GERMAN Potash Salts
that were always used in naking’cotton fertilizers
and have been qged for all these, years with great
profit and without any damage to the crop.
The supply is not at present as large as in former
years, but there is enough to greatly increase the
Cotton Crop if you insist on your dealer making
the necessary effort to get It for you.
