HOW TO DARKEN
GRAY HAIR
A Cincinnati Barber Tells flow to
Make a Remedy for Gray Hair.
A well-known resident of Cincin
nati, Ohio, who has been a barber for
more than forty years, recently made
the following statement:
“Anyone can prepare a simple mix
ture at home, at very little cost, that
will darken gray hair, and make it
soft and glossy. To a half-pint of
water add 1 ounce bay rum, a small
box of Barbo Compound and 1-4 ounce
glycerine. These ingredients can be
bought at any drug store at very lit
tle cost. Apply to the hair twice a
week until the desired shade is ob
tained. This will make a gray-haired
person look twenty years younger.
It is easy to use, does not color the
most delicate scalp, is not sticky or
greasy and does not rub off.”

CHAPTER XXXIV
IT was with the feeling that Rosa
lie would finite probably have
returned, for their drive had
been a long one. that Nora per
mitted Dr. Findlay to come up when
they reached her apartment.
But there was no sign of Rosalie
I as yet and pending her arrival Nora
; set herself to the task of making
tea.
Now there is that in the nature of
man which warms his heart, or, if a
fire be already started there, height
ens the blaze when he sees for the
first time the woman of his admira
tion busied with some simple house
hold task. Newton Findlay had no
thought of pressing his love making
any further for the time. But when
! at last seated tete-a-tete with Nora
i at the little table, he found himself
I served with the toothsome comforts
of her quck and skilful preparation,
he felt his jeaution leave him with
an inrush of tender passion before
which she realized himself quite
powerless. Wtih a sudden, impatient
movement he lifted the tray aside
and catching Nora’s hands, swept
them to his lips.
Newton hela Nora’s soft, white
hands —real Irish hands, heritage
from more than one famous ances
tral beauty—in his firm clasp across
the tea-table.
The emotion uppermost in the
man’s mind was easy to read in his
eager face, his glowing eyes. Nora’s
expression showed her trepidation,
■ but nothing more. Nothing more on
either face until —while Nora’s palms
were still crushed in Newton’s grasp.
' the table seemed to rise up with a
force that tore the hands apart,
I lurched heavily toward Nora, then
, away, and in another second came
to rest. All this before either man
or woman could utter a word.
At the first movement, each look
ed inquiringly toward the other,
' thinking that the movement had its
! origin there. But the noise and
j lurching were utterly beyond such
explanation. In any case, no room
; was left for doubt. Three taps—
, dear, distinct and unmistakable—•
| case from the table almost immedi
i ately after it had recovered equili
i briu m.
Are women, after all, more valor
ous than men? In the accustomed
hazards of this earthly plane, they
may not be. But face to face with
sinister. inexplicable, mysterious
phenomena, with things never seen
by land or sea, it has been evidenced
many times that women feel less ter
ror—or control it better. Nora was
first to speak
“It’s come!” Her voice scarcely
shook, yet her lips were blue white,
her face ashy.
“The table —it’s a message!"
‘Damnation!” “The man intended
no profanity. It was not anger, but
his outraged senses, his insulted
mentality, that spoke. Even so, he
was quick to recover. "A message
from where?”
“That’s what we must find out."
1 Braced by some stimulant of cour
age that seemed quite outside her
self, Nora was already calm, deter
mined.
| “Please sit down again. Yes, right
there, where you were before.” New
ton obeyed. The situation was ut
i tcrly beyond him. Even the pulsing
i passion of a few moments since was
i infinitely remote.
i "I have seen them do this.” Nora
I spoke aloud, but very evidently to
i herself. “One of us must repeat the
i alphabet and the table taps when
| the right letter comes. You must
i spell out the words. Be careful.”
Immediately Nora began repeating
the letetrs carefully, yet quickly. At
“I” the table rocked each way, then
i settled. Nora saw by Newton’s eyes
i that he had noted. Indeed, the
! scientist, the investigator, was once
! more uppermost, and Dr. Findaly
was now intentness personified. She
finished the alphabet, began again
and at "A” there came a tap. An
other at "M.” Again the alphabetic
repetition, with the signal this time
at “N.” In this way it continued
with ten signals or more until after
several repetitions, no signal came,
and it was evident that the com
munication was finished. They set

to work to interpret and almost sim
ultaneously the answer came:
“I AM NOT DEAD IN THE WAY
YOU AX’D HE ARE THINKING.”
There was no signature. None was
needed. Both knew whence the mes
sage came.
“That settles it for me! It came
from your husband. Nora.”
“Yes. it came from Roger. He
must have thought—it was time.”
They looked into each other’s eyes,
no longer man and woman, feminine
sought and masculine suitor, but two
human beings to whom has suddenly
been revealed the one great secret of
tile universe.
With careful kindliness Dr. Find
lay drew Nora to a seat removed
from the table, then turned back to
that extraordinary piece of furni
ture now standing quietly in its cor
ner. apparently as lifeless as wood
and varnish well could be.
“Are you afraid; —I know you
aren’t, but w >uld you rather not
stay here? 1 can help you find an
other place and hunt up Rosalie.” In
sensibly, his tone had changed to
an impersonal brotherliness, com
forting in its way.
"No, I shall stay right here. It
was Roger. Why should I fear
Roger—alive or dead?”
"Not dead Discarnate,” he gently
reminded her.
“Yes. yes, that’s it. He’s not dead.
He is gone, cut off. but it’s enough
that he has that much —that his soul
and mind —that Roger, my husband,
my husband—”
Tears at last streamed down her
white face. While her paroxysm of
sobs continued Newton ministered to
Nora, tenderly, but not in the least
as lover to his beloved.
Something had happened to New
ton Findlay. It was as if he saw
Roger Mason, Nora’s husband, at
her side, their arms about each
other. A decent man at heart, he
was relieved that the mental pic
ture caused no jealous pangs, even
after he left her, conscious that she
was in the spiritual arms of an
other man.
He had something more than his
own sudden change of heart to pon
der over. It is not a casual matter
gußofSth C ° nVerSe aCrOSS the
CHAPTEE XXXV
CONCLUSIVE proof that, what
ever Rosalie’s psychic prog
ress may have been she had
no L. y . et developed telepathic
power sufficient to read the minds
of those about her, is shown by the
tact that she knew nothing of Nora’s
table tipping message until the time
had passed during which such knowl
edge might possibly have alleviated
great suffering.
Nora’s was not the character to
take the mild middle course of hap
pily acquiescing in a dim and distant
future hope.
She had believed her husband lost
to her forever and had therefore
made utmost effort to take up life’s
weary journey without him. But
what availed the interests of this
world with Roger living, perhaps
still loving, in another—the implica
tion of the message which the table
gave, that the time had come to warn
her.
This other living man, who prof
fered a man’s living love, touched
Nora at her most vital spot, her in
most sense of honor.
Roger had reason to believe her
ready to forget—shallow hearted,
faithless to her real love —for he
must at least have known how deep
and real her love for him had been,
still was—or was it?
Could it be that she was really
beginning to forget? That the glow
ing flame of human love had really
begun to warm her a second time
when he —that patient, that pale wait
ing—one stood by, unseen, forgotten,
but seeing and remembering? How
horrible!
How could she have forgotten or
seemed to for a moment? How long

••V: d H:ovg?..s like these gaxe way
t; an interval of tender recollection,
dur.n? wlrcn Nora lived again the
happiest moments of Roger’s ardent
c ■j-.-tshtp. of ecsta moments to
gether.
Then again her feeling would
change and irentai'y she reld out a
nether's arms to that poor lad, sub
ject now to forces wrid she could
no’ even comprehend, to ar: authority
compate-l iith which the compelling
pawei of mcr human love was futil
ity itself
Then again the. pangs of self-re
proach. While her mate was being
swept out by th? black Ude of death,
she had hugged close to the earth
shore, which stil' showed verdant
in the sunshine
Thus was she dragged back and
forth beneath the flail of mental tor
ture. This sort of thing went on
day after day, or rather night after
rdghi. ,
Meanwhile, she kept at work, fol
lowing the blind instinct which seeks
the only real panacea for suffering
of mind So it was almost a week
before Rosalie, who was greatly pre
occupied. noted the change even in
Nora’s appearance.
Her face was wraithlike, with burnt
out torches for eyes. Her claw-like
little hands fluttered nervously even
while she held the rest of her body
by force of will, temporarily at rest.
She was trying to do this, after
pacing her bedroom back and forth
for half an hour or more early one
evening when Rosalie, who had noted
her actions more closely since din
ner time, entered her room and sat
down determinedly.
Rosalie had decided that the time
had come ’o say the thing she had
been rest. ;ing for just this occa
sion. /
To say that an astute, observant,
and keenly analytical person such
as Rosalie believed herself to be
would make the mistake of jumping
at a conclusion, would not surprise
an experienced student of human na
ture. Besides, Rosalie’s deductions
were quit logical. Starting from the
premise that Newton Findlay was on
the brink of falling in love with
Nora and insensibly according him
the ability to rearouse Nora’s inter
est in proportion to the success with
which he had aroused her own. Rosa
lie had reached a definite conclusion,
to this effect:
That Nora was now deeply inter
ested. that the affair was reaching
a crisis—Rosalie had learned from
sources of her own of Newton’s last
'call—and that Nora’s present depress
ed condition was due to the fight
still waging between her loyalty to
her dead lover and her leaning to
ward the lover living.

BY MRS. W. H. FELTON
SPLENDID SOBGHUM SYRUP
Mr. and Mrs. W. N.. Holland, of
Paulding county, Georgia, have been
so generous as to send me some
more of their splendid sorghum
syrup. They have either better seed
to grow the cane, or they know bet
ter how to prepare the syrup than
anybody I am acquainted with. Once
a year these excellent friends re
member me. I wish they could be
induced to tel) the readers of the
Country Home Column their method
of preparation or the kind of seed
they cultivate.
This syrup is of the consistence of
honey, a beautiful amber color, with
not a speck in the syrup to mar its
perfection. It is delicious!
BLIGHT IN SWEET POTATOES
My grocer sent me a few pounds
of splendid looking sweet potatoes a
few days ago. I was absent a couple
of days, and when I took a few out
of the paper sack to fry for dinner,
at least half of them had decayed.
They looked to be all right on the
outside, but the blight was inside.
I have been told that sweet pota
toes must not be cultivated on the
same spot of ground more than two
years in succession. I do not raise
ptotatoes myself—do not cultivate
a garden in my advanced age, but I
drop th’s suggestion to those who
make a business of raising and mar
keting sweet notatoes. The potato
crop of Georgia is more valuable
than our present., wheat cultivation.
It is “half the living” of the most
of households. Maybe the long hot
summer has been unfavorable to
sweet potatoes.

And then came Andrew Jackson,
And after him Van Buren came
And panic’s wild destruction.
Then Harrison for one month ruled
And Tyler came in order;
Then Polk and war with Mexico
About a little border.
“Then General Taylor was the choice,
But after one year only
Death called this hero to his rest,
And left the chair to Fillmore.
Then Pierce and James Buchanan
came,
And war clouds quickly lower;
Then Lincoln was the chosen one,
The statesman for the hour.
“Then after Lincoln’s martrydom,
Johnson, of Tennessee —
Then Grant, a war-time hero—
The silent man was he.
Next R. B. Hayes was counted in
And Garfield —second martyr—
Whose term was ended peacefully
By Chester Alan Arthur.
“Then Cleveland next and Harrison,
And ’Cleveland second-timer.
And then McKinley was the third
To fill the grave of martyr.

And was elected once again,
Then Taft came Ohio.

Dear Children: Fort the past week we have had a whole flock
of mockingbirds in our yard, and what a treat they have been. Wish
you could see one pair. They had started south, and the weather
was so fine here that they decided to stop and rest a while, and they
have built a nest in a hedge tree at the back of the house, and how
Mr. Mockingbird sings! I tell him if he isn’t careful he won’t have
a song left for Florida, but if he sings right on and the beauty of his
song never grows less. I feed them every morning and keep fresh
water where they can get it, hoping that they will come back this
way. Lovingly, AUNT JULIA.
COKKESFONDENCE HINTS
For a lung time I lia<l trouble in keeping
tra< k of niy correspondence. I would put
letters awuy unanswered or maybe answer
them twica. Now I've got a certain place
for unanswered 'letters and always put them
away when 1 get them answered. 1 keep all
my ’answered letters in 'a large pasteboard
box.
I never burn any letters, as sometimes,
perhaps, I shall want to read them again.
It is very nice, some rainy day, to get out
your ol<l letters and read them over, espe
cially if they are interesting. You don't
understand what a good impression a neatly
written and correctly spelled letter makes.
I know, for I have received as many as eight
or over nt once after a letter had been
printed in the I.etter Box, and I have re
ceived some beautifully written letters, and
also some very had ones.
I received one Christinas, written on the
back of a calendar leaf, and written with a
pencil, too.. Girls and boys, take more
pains with your letters, and always read
them once or twice to see if you haven’nt
misspelled any words or made mistakes in
punctuation.
When I first went to writing to auntie’s
Letter Box I had lots condemned to the
waste basket and a few printed. I have
learned that those written with care are the
ones printed. Don’t blame auntie for not
minting ycur letters: blame yourself. Lov

Hello, Aunt Julia: Will you let a little
Georgia girl into your happy band of boys
and girls? I like to xead the cousins’ let
ters, and thought I would write. I am
going to school at Salem High school and am
in the eiglrch grade. I like my teacher fine.
Well, as I am a new writer, will describe
myself and go: I have brown eyes, blonde
hair and fair complexion, am thirteen years
of age. Cousins, how many of you like to
read good stories? I do for one. Well, I
guess I had better ring off, as I don’t want
Mr. Wastebasket to have my letter. Cousins,
let your letters fly to
VERA WADE.
Chester, Ga., R. F. D. 2.
Dear Friends: Will you permit me to enter
your fine corner this morning? I have been
• aiding the fine letters and decided I would
.write again. I am a boy of seventeen sum
mers and a farmer. I think farming is a
fine occupation, I am a blonde—don’t you
know l’:u cute? I just thought I would
write a few words, as sister is writing, and
tell all tile pretty girls to write to me.
Affectionately,
JAMES RITCII.

Type of Queen Anne Table
- - I
|
The Queen Anne period, from .
the beginning to the middle of the ■
eighteenth century, furnished in-!
spiration for the styles of furni- I
ture used by our American fore
fathers.
The distinguishing feature of
the Queen Anne style is the cab
riole leg and the claw foot.
The tables of this period are
especially attractive with their
slender carved legs, as is shown
by the drop leaf table illustrated.
MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
We are two lonely girls of four
teen (twin sisters) coming to you
for advice, but as unlike as night
and day, for I, the one that is
writing this, am as dark as an In
dian and my sister is as fair as I
am dark.
’ We have some problems that are
bothering us, and as we live with
our aunt, who has no sympathy for
us, we are coming to you for ad
vice.
We go with two boys, aged eigh
teen and seventeen, and we would
like to know if it would be prop
er to go riding with them after
coming from the movies.
We have noticed many times, that
you say that it will make a boy
lose his respect for him to kiss
you, but none of the boys and
girls here think anything of it, and
I would be afraid the boys would
get mad if we refused them, but
we intent to be respectable girls,
so they will like us, and respect
us both.
These boys want us to marry
them as soon as we have two more
years of school, and then live in
a big double house not far from
her» What do you think cf it?
We do not care anything extra for
them, but not many boys would al
low us to live together, and it
would break my heart to be sepa
rated from my sister.
Would it he proper for us to
correspond with William and Dus
tin Far num? Is it proper to cheek
dance and camel walk with boys?
How is my handwriting? Every
one teases me about it, though I
try to improve it.
DIMPLES AND TIMPLES.
DIMPLES AND TIMPLES
Young girls run great risks
riding in automobiles at night
alone with boys, and it leads
often to bad results. If a young
man wishes to take you for a
ride in the evening you should
have a chaperon, for the simple
reason that when a man gets a
girl in an automobile with him,
after dark, he knows there isn’t
anyone around to see him make
advances, and he desires to
make most of the opportunity
then and there, so he starts the
hugging and kissing game “right
off the bat.” A few girls have
been known to withstand such
things but the majority realize
when it is too late what an
awful mistake they made.
I see many sights which fill
me with pity, also disgust, when
I see young girls whose moth
ers think they are at a movie
or dance or visiting, sitting in
an automobile, parked in some
lonely spot on the roadside, or
country lanes, in the arms of
some boy or man. It is risky
girls, and take a tip from me,
do not cheapen yourself. I am
not an old fogey, with ancient
ideas, but at the same time I
know that such a thing can
only bring harm. One doesn't
have to be a prude, but it pays
in the long run to be particu
lar. Auto’s are a curse to so
ciety, as well as a pleasure. I
think I can safely say that since
their arrival we can charge the
loose morals among the young
er set to them. Naturally being
alone with a young man who
attracts you and is attracted by
you, breeds familiarity, espe
cially when enclosed in cur
tains in the dark, away from
every one.
Will you kindly print the words
of song “Hush-a-Bye Ma’ Baby” or
I Missouri waltz in The Journal, or
™ e where I ’may get them.?
Will thank you very much fr same.

Will you please tell me what will
clean brown kid gloves? I think
they were put away damp. Tney
have grey spots on them. I think
it is mold. I would appreciate it
very much if you could tell me what
to take the spots off with.

send your gloves to Joseph May

at cleaning woman’s apparel and
gloves. It is cheaper in the end
to do this than to experiment
with cleaning liquids.
