Oh, Doris, you are a good little girl!" She shook her head, and hastened to hide herself from him in the other room; and it was a long time before she came back with the letter folded and in its en velope. When she did her face was com posed and her manner natural. She had quite made up her mitvi what her duty was and how she was going to perform it. ‘Here is the letter." said she. laving it in his outstretched hand. Then she turn her back. She knew, with a woman's un erring instijict why he wished to handle "he fore it went. She felt that kiss he folded away in it, in every fibre of her aroused and sympathetic heart, but the hardest part of the ordeal was over and her eyes beamed softly when she turned to take it from his hand and affix the stamp "You Will mall it yourself?" he asked. I should like to have you put it into the box with your own hand." I will put it in tonight, after supper," she promised him. His smile of contentment assured her that tins trial of her courage and self control was not without one blessed re sult. He would rest for several days in tn the pleasure of what he had done or thougiit he had done. She need not cringe before that image of Dread for two. three days at least. Meanwhile, he would grow strong in body, ami site, perhaps, in spirit. Only one percaution she must take. No hint of Mr. Chailoner’s presense in town must u aech him. He must be guarded from a knowledge of that fact as certainly as from the more serious "one which lay behind it. “I Hope Never To See That Man” ’I hat this would be a difficult thing to do, Doris was soon to realize. Mr. Chailoner continued to pass the house twice a day and the time finally came when he ven i tured up the walk. Doris was in the window and saw him l<'':n!ng. She slipped*softly out and inter ; 1 "pled him b< fore be had stepped upon the . porch.

He is still weak iand acutely susceptible to the least noise, i I was afraid that our voices might dis ! turb him. Do you mind walking a little j way up the road? That is, if your visit i was intended for me." ; Her Hush, the beauty "which must have ! struck even him, but more than all else I her youth, seemed to reconcile him to this | unconventional request. Bowing, he took | ids foot from the step, saying, as she I joined him: “Yes, volt are the one I wanted to see: | that is, today. Later. I hope to have the i privilege of a conversation with Mr. Brotherson " She gave him one quick look, tremb ling so that he offered her his arm with a fatherly air. x "I see that vou understand my errand | here.' he proceeded, with a grave smile, meant as she knew for her encourage ment. "I am glad. Iweause we ean go at once to the point. Miss Scott." he con tinued in a voice from which he no longer strove to keen back the evidences of deep feeling. "I have the strongest interest In your patient that one man can have in another, wheje there is x no .personal ac quaintanceship. You who have *very reason to understand my reasons for this, will accept the statement. I hope, as frankly as it is made." She nodded. Her eyes were full of tears, but she did not hesitate to raise them. She had the greatest desire to see the face of the man who could speak like this today, and yet of whose pride and sense of superiority his daughter had stood in such awe. that she had laid a seal upon the impulses of her heart, and imposed such tasks and weary waiting upon her lover. Doris forgot, in meeting his softened glance and tender, almost wistful, expression, the changes which ean be made by a great grief, and only wondered why her sweet benefactress had not taken him into her confidence and thus, possibly, averted the doom which Doris felt had in some way grown out of this secrecy. "Why should she have feared the dis approval of this man?" she inwardly queried, as she cast him a confidlpg JooK which pleased him greatly, as his tone i now showed. To Be Continued in Next Issue Exercise and Common Sense Is Miss Louise Dresser's Beauty Formula By MARGARET HUBBARD AYER. JUST before Miss Louise Dresser’s act. the obliging xoung man w ho runs the moving pictures at the Colonial put on a reel—that is the cor rect term—showing Miss Dresser work ing hard with a medicine ball. “It’s a very illuminating reel, be cause it Illustrates beyond question 01 doubt what a beautiful woman Miss Dresser reallj is, for you ean’t look like much in a moving pictute unless y >u are really ajtd truly handsome and young, and it shows how Miss Dresser w\lll v ' ; . ’' I- .“■■■ stays beautiful despite her hard work on the stage. Miss Dresser .was making tip when I went behind to her dressing room to ask her what she did besides throwing tlie medjcine ball to retain her health and good looks. Everybody knows that Miss Dresser looks like a younger sister of Miss Lil iitwt Russell; that she has in her face the same amiable, gracious, quality, which, makes people say, "I like her; she's so sweet.” Does Nothing Weird. 1 watched Mi-s Dresper slowly ehang, herself from the natural beauty who had come in without any paint and powder on her face through the process of "making up" into that perfection of artificiality which makes her look abso lutely natural, despite the glare of the footlights when she is on the stage. "You know, I don't da any of those weird things that are supposed to keep you beautiful, and that people insist al! actresses must do, in order to preserve what looks they’ve got,” said Miss Dresser, looking at me candidly, while she paused in the act of heading her eyelashes, which means putting big lumps of black paint on them. "As a matter of fact, the actress who wants to look well gets back to common sense and first principles in healthful living. Nobody takes milk baths any more, or washes their hair in cham pagne; those were beautiful stories in vented by the genius of the press agent. The sad part of it was that when wom en read in the papers that a famous beauty did anything extraordinary like that why, the most conservative of them believed it absolutely, and went and did likewise, and the results were most unfortunate. "Champagne and milk baths were relatively harmless. People have sug gested all kinds of impossible things in beauty culture for me to do. 1 am ex pected to potfr the strongest kinds of acids over myself if I get a freckle or take to skin bleaches at the first sign of sunburn. But what is the use of any of those things? I simply say. ‘Wait until the sunburns and the freckles fade,’ as they always do in the course of time. "I believe in the very simplest toilet preparations—just those that are abso lutely necessary and nothing more Most people believe that beauty is skin deep, hut you know that that is quite wrong Beauty is a matter of health and temperament. 1 want to keep wej . and 1 try to keep happy. “Really," concluded Miss Dresser, as she made a perfect Cupid's bow over her lips with red paint, “really keeping amiable and lighthearted is half o f the battle." The Medicine Ball. “But what about the medicine ball "' "Oh that." said Miss Dresser. “I got it to keep me from stagnating, as so many people do around the stage. There ate hours at a time when there is noth ing to do. and especially if you are on the road In a town where you have no friends or acquaintances there Is no way of killing time, and too much time is bad for anyone, isn't It? "People who stagnate mentally or physical!) can't exjieet to be good look ing or even to retain what looks na ture endowed them with originally. Thousands of women all over the world are stagnating, and many of them are GSt P? >-*W T r '& ■' i s's o’ -xL d WwrSbS S’ ■ / is w 4 MISS DRESSER’S CHARMING PROFILE, just waiting to have their attention vailed to it. “.When 1 was out West one time, the manager of the theater happened to catch me w hile*! was tossing the medi cine ball about the stage, which 1 did every morning for at least an hour. “‘Why do you do that.” he asked. " 'So's not to get rusty.' I answered, Up-to-Date Jokes It was in a narrow street of a large town, and a carter h id done tile dam age in turning his wagon round. The shop-keeper (insured, no doubt) dis played this notice: "The result of backing horses." Merchant (to clerk > This wbm’t do. Every time you see a "fi” you call it a "2."

"is worth S2O a minute." “Well.” answered the friend, casu ally, "let's go out this afternoon and play two or three thousand dollars worth of golf.” “So you were bound and gagged by bandits while in Italy, were you?" ask ed a sarcastic man of a friend who had traveled. “Regular comic opera ban dits. eh ?” “No," said the other: "there was nothing of the comic opera style, about them. The gags they used were all new." Authoress (<>f the budding variety) I got level with that editor last night. He always rejects my MSS. But 1 have had my revenge. Friend and < 'onsoler—How did you do it? Authoress—l declined Ids son. with thanks "I should think some of these speech makers would get tired of hearing themselves,” said the proprietor of the village store. "Human nature's the same in politics is 'tis any whet e else," replied old Joe' Etruthers. “A man don't mind listenin' to the worst noise a cornet can make provided he's the feller that's doin' the practicin’.” "I wouldn’t drink out of that whp,” said little Willie to the well dressed young visitor; "that's Lizzie’s cup. and she’s very particular who drinks out of it." "Ah." said the young man. as he drained the cup dry. "1 feel honored to drink out of Lizzie’s eup. Lizzie is your youngest sister, isn’t she?" "Not much. Lizzie Is my dog." Their boat was drifting idly, the sun shone above, soothing tile soul, and the sea was retene. while she she was sitting snugly not on the same side of the ship. Then he proposed. From the opposite side of the craft she gazed at him calmly Then she spake: "As a matter of common sense, rea; izing that we are in this boat, on w.nei which Is more than 5(1 feet deep, and tha if you were to act as jou should act if 1 accepted you. we would be cap sized.

Invite 1 them in. and I will,’ 1 answered, and lite upshot of it was that I gave a lec ture every morning to the woipen of . that town, taught them how to throw tile medicine ball, how to wake up nat urally ami physically. and the danger of stagnating or slumping. Why They Grow Old. "Women stop exercising, not because grow old; they grow old because . they stop exercising; because they lose interest in keeping young, in keeping their eirclulation in good condition, and are unwilling to make an effort.

"1 recommend it to all women who hav» slumped.' Put me down as say ing. 'Don’t stagnate;' that Is the first rule for the beauty seeker."

Interested and Interesting By Beatrice Fairfax J I ONCE knew a girl who was so good it was generally agreed by her family and acquaintances that no girl emlld be better. But she hadn’t a friend. The reason: She was neither Interested nor inter esting. When het associates attempted to talk to her they soon found that the conversation was all on their side. She responded with a “Yes" or "No" so ab rupt as to be barely civil, and they soon tired of throwing the conversa tional ball to her. and then running after it. that they might throw it again. She never tossed it back Her “Yes” and "No" conveyed mote unfriendli ness, less interest, more apathy, less humanity than any other words in the English language. A dog expressed more of interest in a friendly bark than she exptessed in return for the attempts of others to be kind to her. And "Yes" and “No," as the whole of a response, are the height of rude ness. I wonder if the most ardent ad vocates of brevity of speech know that. 1 attempted to he friendly with the girl. “She surely is interested in some thing," i argued, "and I will find what it is." •My attempts were in vain, though 1 spoke of her woik. as stenographer in a wholesale house; I talked to her of iter music, and of her home, and of the Ijttle bits of fancy work she oeca sionaly indulged in. and every attempt met with a “Yes" or “No," delivered tn away that made me feel as if 1 had been slapped Discouraged, but determined not to give up. I spoke to her of books—old books and new’—and found the situa lion more difficult titan ever. s h never lead, she told me in a sentence of just three words: "I never rend.' Some months after this futile at tempt to be friendly i received a letter from her to this effect: “You have imeti nice to me. Will vou tell me why it Is 1 have no friends? I am a faithful employee, but nix em ployers ap,i my associates in tile office don’t like me latn a good daughter: I neve: find fault w jth othe s; 1 never criticise; I never gossip, yet I haven’t a friend." And I wrote In reply: "You ay he a good employee, but it is in the same manner as a machine. You may he a good daughter, if good ness consists in paying your board, finding no fault with the affairs of your •home, and making no more attempt to be interesting to your family, o: inter ested in them, than if you talked dif ferent language-. “1 am sure you never criticise others, and nevi r gossip.
