He laughed aloud suddenly. Eate. that had dealt him so cruel a buffet on one side of th? fa?e, was caressing him gently, on the other! "Perhaps it’s a good omen.” he said to himself, bending to pick up the scattered sheets of Charpentier’s letter. At any rale he determined to accept it as such It certainly made all the dif ference in his outlook on life, lifting him out of uncertainty into security. At least he need no longer worry about ways and means; he could meet Saxe as an equal, tight him with his own weapon money. '•’he train was slowing down, running smoothly into the great station. He thrust Charpentier's letter into his pock et and stood up his hand on the window ready tn jump out at the moment th? train ran alongside the platform At that hour th? station was crowded, and Rlm ington found, despite his own empty car riage, that the train hy which he had traveled was very full.

UlIT ~Y doesn't the modern bride wear her veil over lo r face as her mother did?" That's one of the absurd questions a Mere Man asked me at a recent wedding where the beauti ful .bride was dressed in the very latest mode with a wedding veil ar ranged caplike under a crown of tiny white roses. "Foolish old fashion of throwing back the veil mussed up the bride's hair so ft's been dis carded.” "I thought it was symbolic,” said the M. M. vaguely. “When symbols and fashions clash, the steam roller goes over the symbols fast enough.” With that he subsided, as he should, and was left to view as nice a jedding as one could wish for. The bride wore white chiffon over white satin, quite a simple frock with a beautiful lace veil as chief decoration. This veil, which had encited the M. M.'s comment, was arranged almost like a frilled cap on the head and was certainly much prettier thanWthe ordinary bunched up affair. The same ar rangement can be carried out in tulle, and if the tulle Is edged with a small val edging the effect is quite charming. Don’t horn the tulle, sew the lace on carefully to a well cut edge. The June bride is a sort of pat tern to her summer and autumn sister, and the girl who marries later in the summer has the ad vantage of innumerable bargain sales in everything that is included In the trousseau. Lingerie, lace, lawn, not to speak of satin for the wedding gown all these things are cheaper at this season. Every girl wants to be married in white, but the fashionable wedding dress is an elephant in the married woman's wardrobe unless she In tends to have it done over mtn an evening gown. Except for very elaborate wed dings, traveling suits are becoming more and more popular for the marriage ceremony. The travel ing suit idea can be straine.d a point and developed into quite elab orate afternoon frocks or coat and skirt suits wljh handsome waists. These are more serviceable and practical. But the sentimental woman does not feel that she's quite married unless she wears sat in and a veil, and. after all, she should forget economy for once in her life, even if she finds her satin frock useless forever after. Up Against It. "This is a bard world." said a shabby chap. "A man can't get a Job unless he's got a new suit.” "No,” said his companion, "and he can't get a new suit unless lie's got a Joi’.” One Reservation. "A woman can he just as self-reliant and independent as a man,” said the wife, defiantly. “Mebbe she can. Henrietta.

Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or un derstands how to properly care for her self. Os course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experience with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Fol lowing right upon this comes the ner vous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an un prepared condition, and with ample time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E.Pinkham’sV'egetable Com ‘ pound, a most valuable tonic and invig i orator of the female organism. i/ V I Z' I / r\ / ■ /S xvTa iFTnkhKm In many homes once childless there are now children be cause of the fact that Lydia E.

IN days of old a fair maid wandered pensively to the woods, where rare birds sang to her of love, and the most delicate of flowers nodded sweet messages to her. If she chose to recline on the velvet sward, it was velvet sward, without brambles or sticks or stones to punch her in the back. Butterflies hovered near, and If there were such a thing as poison Ivy, a granddaddy-long-legs or a chigger, the chronicles of love fail to reveal it. If a fair maid wandered pensively into the woods these days, she would be devoured by insects or lost in the weeds. Elaine may still love Lancelot, but she can’t tell It in the woods, all her attention being occupied in fighting >ugs. Visions of love, in a modern guise, come to many girls as they come to Daysey Mayme Appleton, who takes surreptitious peeps into the Promised Land while supposed to be putting clean paper on the pantry shelves. She was perched on a round of a step-ladder, after having removed glassware and chinaware, with clean newspapers in her hands to replace those she had taken off. She spread a paper over the shelf, found it didn’t fit the corner, and had taken it up to crease it when her eyes fell on the words: “And her breast heaved with emotion, for Viola was not a girl to take such a breach of good manners lightly.” “It Is past 10 now.” said Daysey Mayme, to fortify herself against temp tation, “and I must get this done, re puff my hair, get lunch and go to a Mothers Meeting at 1.” Then she resolutely creased the page to fit the shelf, and bent over to fit ft in the corners, when she again read: Stay Kind Sir, She Said. "He looked at her with his love at the white heat of anger. His eyes flashed, and he turned away. 'Stay,’ she cried, ’I have not told ADD.’ 'You have told enough!’ he said, a flicker of contempt In his cold gray eyes. She gave a low moan, like some dumb an imal in mortal anguish." Daysey Mayme picked up the pickle Jar and deliberately set it over the next sentence. "I have a busy day ahead of me,” she said, "and must not let anything CZ/y DRUDGE \ Anty Drudge Tells How to Economize on Coal. Mrs. Thrifty— "My husband is in the coal business and it doesn’t cost anything for fuel to boil the clothes.’’ Anty Drudge— “ Your husband doesn’t get his coak for nothing, does he? Besides it costs just half the wear of your clothes when you boil them, as they wear out just twice as fast. Use Fels-Naptha soap in cool or lukewarm water if you want to save time, bother and your husband’s coal.” John D. Rockefeller says “it is not what we earn but what we save that makes wealth.” In washing clothes with Fels-Naptha in cool or lukewarm water, either in summer or winter, you save: — Fuel— No necessity for hot fire or boiling water. Clothes— Your clothes last twice as long when washed with Fels-Naptha, because they are not weakened by boil ing, nor worn out by hard rubbing. Doctor's Bills— You don’t risk your health by bending over steaming suds or a hot fire and then going into the cooi outer air. 7/wdr—The Fels-Naptha way of washing takes less than half as long as the old wash boiler way. Labor— Fels-Naptha takes three fourths the work and all the drudgery out of washday. If these savingsare worth while to you, follow directions for using Fels-Naptha printed on the red and green wrapper. interrupt. There’s a suffrage” "’Suffer me to kneel at your feet,' sobbed Viola.' ” Daysey Mayme put a pile of soup plates over the rest of Viola’s plea, and began to match every vegetable dish with its own lid. “I have a suffrage meeting at 2,” she resumed, "and an article on ’The Folly of Love’ to read to the Man- Haters league at 4.” In putting the last lid on the last vegetable dish, a bare space was left, in the paper, and these words seem to fairly fling themselves into her sub consciousness: “Leander paused. After all. Viola was only a weak, frail woman. Per haps he had been too severe. Perhaps he had been brutal. The de Courtneys had always been stern with the women they loved. Then Came—Hoof Beats. “‘I have forgiven much,’ he began, when a sound of horses’ feet coming through the forests caused him to pause, and turn a listening ear to the open window. Nearer and nearer, now so near he could tell that there was not one lone rider. There were two,' three, four—ah, there were at three score. “He turned to the woman cowering at his feet, 'Ah,' he hissed between white lips, ‘this is your work, you Devil!’ “He raised his gauntlet, something flashed through the air” Daysey Mayme gave a quick shove, and sent soup plates and vegetable dishes tumbling into every corner of the shelf. Hastily gathering up the paper she had so carefully spread out. she twisted her feet over the rounds of the step-ladder for a better hold, and was soon lost to the world. Oblivlous of the dishes that looked st her In equid-faced astonishment, ■find the shelves that fairly yawned for papers, sne read, and read, and read. Dunch, her hair puffs and the Moth er’s Meeting were forgotten, and w’he» she had followed the woes of Viola to the bitter end of the sun had set. It was then Daysey Mayme came back from the Promised Land of Ro mance to her prosaic surroundings. Realizing that It was too late for her to deliver her address on "The Folly of Love” before the Man Haters’ league, she grew so angry at her weakness she smashed the ‘soup tureen.
