But Xuallt as he sat on the old bench the'summer house, his sensations became more acute. There was first the L „ f ,>„• renunciation, the sacrifice X ) f ha-! made. There was satisfac tion In the thought that he at least was sharing It with Josie. But within a flash of time all that norhaps feigned satisfaction had gone as io thought J his office the next morning and the following morning, and many mm-nings after that—a whole lifetime of Would Josie he there?

And then came hack the feeling that he Yuld tear the girl from the midst of the roiitendmg emotions and motives which kept them apart. He was on bis feet when a rustle in the shrubbery startled him. Tie fancied he saw a dim. white form there, half emerging from the underbrush and half ir, relief against the trees. The ghost of old Major Tom! In spite of the agony of that night, Jackson smiled. The ghost was the only thing that had been lacking. And then the ghost came toward him. In a shaft of light that fell from an upper window Jackson saw that It was Josie-Josie with her yellow hair stream ing on either side just as It had fallen down. Josie In a rough old coat, Josie In thin slippers. A woman would have noted and have said that the girl had been standing before her mirror, preparing to retire, when some sudden Impulse had made her snatch whatever was at hand and rush out. While Jackson—now no more Broadway - stood motionless, two arms went about his neck and a voice, low and vibrant with the emotion of the moment, as ever, poured into his ear: "Dear, I'll go down into the depths with you. If you go back to Broadway. I'll go with you.

"No, no: you can't; you mustn't," he said. But the girl went on, still her arms about his neck and her lips close to his: “Don't you see, dear, the sacrifice you made when you decider! that even if I were willing you wouldn't take me? Oh, you didn't say so, but 1 have thought it all out. Don’t you see that the sacri fice you willed proves to me that you will never be as before-—that you will have the strength to fight and to win—ls there is any enemy to fight. Don’t you see, dear? Why, it's as plain as day." "I shouldn't—l know I shouldn't,” murmured Jackson. "I ought not—-” And then the kindly beam of light from the nearest window cast but a single shadow. TEN YEARS LATER. "Broadway” Jones was again on Broad way. But he was not alone. By his side was his wife, and to each of his hands slung a child. A third walked slightly behind Josie, gazing back at the wonders they passed, and ahead of them trudged a strudy little boy. All of the members of Jackson's family were hungry, but they passed without noticing Speary’s or Bee tor’s or the new and splendid Tanley's. Into a side street turned the little pro cession, eventually to almost fill a little restaurant, where the sole waiter looked startled, as if so many patrons had never entered the place together before. It was Jackson, not Josie, who crumpled up the smaller children’s bread and pushed It into their cups. Josie herself watched him with a strange smile on his face. STILL ON THEIR HONEYMOON. Suddenly her husband raised his head, and in his turn smiled. All were now comfortable at the table. "Do you know, dear, what today is?” he asked. Josie's brow almost frowned as she tried to recall. “Surely, dear,” she said, “It isn't the anniversary of our engagement. That is a little more than three weeks off.” The old humor rested softly in the man's eyes. 'How quickly woman, that Is the In spiration to man, forgets.” he said. Josie still searched her memory. “Oh, I know,” she said. “It must be the day for the new dividend of the men, or the anniversary of the new school, or the anniversary of the hospital—no, It can’t be any of those.” “No,” said Jackson; “It's nothing as trivial as that.” And he drew gently from hfs pocket a little time-yellowed packet, whose cover ing was broken, and held it aloft so that she read: "Jones’ Pepsin Wafers.” "Why, where did you get that?” she ex claimed. "We manufacture so little gum at the plant nowadays; all of those real useful things require so much of the floor space.” “Don’t you remember,” said her hus band, “you gave me that packet on the first night we met, and a little later you said—” He passed one es the wafers to each of his children. "Hand it down to your children, sr' their children, and so on anil so on— ’’ he quoted. And a few moments later the waiter was telling the cook that for the life of him he couldn’t see why a honeymoon couple should borrow four children. THE END. it be proper for me to call, too, as she has never told me our engage ment is broken, and I can not sleep nights, as I always see her red hair in front of me?” One of the most distressing of all spectacles is a girl pursuing a man, yet letters like this give proof that pursuit Is what some men need. Not many, but just a few like this great big, blun dering, snail-like man. , He was engaged to a girl; she left town; he made no attempt to find out why, though he still loves her to such a maddening degree that he can’t sleep nights, as lie always sees her red hair tn front of him. He knows another man is trying to win her, yet he delays tak-' ing action till he learns if action is justifiable. Does he think he can win her by standing still and moaning? He can’t sleep nights, he says, and he seems to be making up for it by sleeping In the daytime! The little god Cupid 1s armed with bow and arrow. There never would have been such a happy word as “court ship" in the world’s vocabulary if this little god of love lay awake all night in the anguish of unrequited affection and yawned all day. He has weapons to bring down his victims, and he* uses them. The writer of the above letter, who, for the time being. Is Cupid’s under study. also has weapons, and he must use them. He must cadi on this red haired vision of his waking dreams, and tell her of the unhappy plight into which his love for her has plunged him. He must be her escort on every oc casion on which she will grant him the privilege: he must send her candy and flowers as if they were so many ar rows; he must consult her wishes in all things, and he must so surround het with his love that she will lose all de sire to ever escape from it by forget ting him in Pittsburg. The love of a red-haired girl is well worth the winning Her love is fervent, like he rhair. She is generous to a fault; she is warm-hearted; she is true Her love, once won, shows more lastirfg qualities than the love of either a blonde or a brunette. She loves for life! Because of all this, I am sorry that the man who loves her so maddeningly is so timid. He needs just the force of character the color of her hair indi cates she possesses to become a real man. But he will never win her by sleepless nights and days that ate de voted to yawns. Women Can and Do Achieve Beauty, Says Fay Wallace jggMT • '' 'jL 1/ ■ I wIM ! OSHi / IMF ?

IT happened that I got to see Miss Fay Wallace very early- in the morning, before that long, reddish mane of hers was tucked up in a grown-up manner. At the time, her hair was tied with a big bow of ribbon, and hung down her back over a negligee of apricot-colored silk and ecru lace. The hair and the silk went beautifully together, and I found myself studying Miss Wallace’s clever color arrangement of walls and hangings and cushions, which Is all made to form a most artistic back ground for this little girl with the red hair, as she calls it. though it is more auburn. Miss Wallace has considered this question of color very seriously. It is reflected in the light gold color of the walls, and in the old rose'of t-he cush ions, in touches of tarnished gold and. brown in the walls. Everything in the room goes with that hair and brings out the faint color in Miss Wallace's white cheeks and the deep brown of .her eyes. ’ “A girl with red hair has to. study herself more carefully than the decided blonde or brunette type,” explained Miss Wallace, when I congratulated her on her color scheme. "I adore colors, anyhow, and 1 do try to get the right combinations, and I am always experimenting to see If I can’t find anything better. Colors should be Advice to the Lovelorn By Beatrice Fairfax. MOST DECIDEDLY NOT. Dear Miss Fairfax: Is it right for a girl of seventeen to go out to the theater with a young man she flirted with, as he was very nice the first night she met him? DOUBTFUL. A girl of seventeen (or of any other age) should not flirt. It is a dangerous sport. Under no circumstances should she accept attentions from a man met in such away. AN UNUSUAL REQUEST. Dear Miss Fairfax: Kindly suggest a form for the an nouncement of an engagement to be mailed to friends and relatives by a young couple announcing their own engagement. K. C. It is customary for the parents of the bride-to-be to make an announcement of her engagement. If she is an orphan the duty falls on an older sister o brother, a near relative or a friend. This girl can not lack all these. Such an announcement made by the relative nearest her would be in better taste than if made by the girl herself. GO TO HER MOTHER. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a young man 21 years old and in love with ts girl one year younger. Every time 1 make an at tempt at corresponding, or meeting her all my pfans are frustrated by her mother. i am at a loss to know her rea sons. although it may be due to the fact that 1 remain out after con ventional hours. This is a neces sity, as I must have recreation and I can not attain this desire unless 1 stay out late, as I work nights and my time is not my own until 11:30 o’clock. I look ahead with sincere hopes of making this girl my wife, for she is the only one in the world for me. Os late I have tried every means conceivable to communicate with her but tny efforts have proven fu tile. T. A. C. Unless her mother knows al] this, she has every reason for objecting to at tentions given her daughter after 11:30 at night. Go to her. show her your in tentions are honorable. Prove your ability to care for a wife, and I am sure she will listen to you with under standing ami sympathy. Fay Wallace, the \ Auburn - Haired \ 'V. • Beauty, in “Ready q X.

It Is wonderful what a girl can do now adays to transform herself into a wom an of real charm and beauty. It seems ail a matter of an intelligent work and .Will power. “I knew a girl who was absolutely plain some years ago. Nobody’ admit ted that she had the slightest claim to beauty. She was both awkward and homely. Yet. a year or so after I had first seen her, she was considerably Im proved, and In another twelve months she had grown into an absolute beauty, a woman who commands attention and admiration. “Now, this girl had achieved beauty by hard work,-careful diet and exercise, kept her complexion and figure perfect. She had studied the art of dress, exact ly* as-you would take up a course In a foreign language or mathematics. “When It came to gesture and pose, she was perfect; having very few good points to start with, she studied them and made the most of them, and in those things which every girl can con trol, her walk, the grace of her carriage, the charm of manner, she was abso lutely perfect. "As for color, she had mastered the art of making that a flattering servant, which called attention to her looks an 1 pointed to the individuality of her type. The best thing about her was that you did not feel that she had worked to create an effect. She seemed perfectly natural. She had studied how to be beautiful, how to move, how to dress herself becomingly, and then she seem ed to think no more of the subject. “That, to me, is a great accomplish ment, to be unconscious of any effort you have made to enhance your looks." Miss Wallade was certainly quite ob livious to the pretty' picture she herself made, as she snuggled in a big chair with cushions of old rose tucked behind her, and framing that reddish hair of hers. “You might tell the other girls*who are worrying about their red hair what colors you have found most becoming" I suggested. "In choosing colors, most women go by their hair alone." she went on. "But it’s really more Important to favor the complexion. Fed red-headed people ad mit that they can wear rose color, but I find all the pinks, especially’ the sal mon shades and the dull old rose shade, bring color to my cheeks and fade out the freckles which always come in the summer time. "Take a large black hat ami face it with pink: that Is much more becoming than the violent contrast of. black vel vet which so many people insist on. if We wish to call your attention to the fact that most infectious diseases, such as whooping cough, diphtheria and scarlet fever, are contracted when the child has a cold.

GA lAdvt J your coloring is very delicate and your style is dainty rather than impressive, violent contrasts are too striking and they are apt to overpower the small womab. 1 think they should be left for a very large woman. “Os course, the girl With red hair can wear all the grays she wants to, and the reddish browns that shade into her hair, I do not believe that dead white is becoming to her; it certainly isn’t to me, so 1 always choose ivory or a cream colored tint. “Almost every one you see wears something snow white about the neck ■ ■ l - s ?: \ ‘ 1 \ lace pr satin, or whatever the material may be. The skin always looks yellow by contrast, no matter how fair it really is, and personally I always Insist on having lace of that nice antique color, eVen if it is brand new. You know how you can get that color, by the way; It’s very simple. If yotlr lace Is good, mix a little orris root with a little powdered saffron until you have the color desired, then rub it into your lace. Have enough of the powder to cover the lace, and leave It for several hours: then shake it out well and brush it. Your White lace will have taken on a lovely' old lace tone, which Is most becoming, and will be delicately scented besides. "The colors that I find most effective are not the brand new vivid colors, and seldom the fashionable shade of the moment, but rather the dull, faded col ors, which have lost that harshness and brilliancy, beside which both hair and complexion look dim. The most beautiful colors In the world to me are the dull and faded blues and grays in Chinese embroideries. "The girl with red hair has a wide range of color to choose from, if she will stick to the soft shades, and not try to dim the brilliancy of her hair by a violent and startling contrast.” A Londoner w'as once dining with a Yorkshireman in a restaurant. The latter, true to his natural habit, kept turning round to see if his hat and coat were all right. “Look here, old chap,” said the Lon doner, at last, “do you think any one is going to steal our hats and coats?” “Well," said the Yorkshireman, "I’ll take good care they don’t have mine, but yours went ten minutes ago."

"It told how he met Mister Byron, and when Byron called him Mis ter Scott he said, ’Call me, Walt, kid; call me Walt.’” “I ain’t interested much in them po ets.” said the Head Barber,* “because I hear so much about the stuff that your brother is all the time writing. I am so used to listening to poetry that I am beginning to dodge any sentence that begins with a capital letter and ends with a rhyme.” “The only reason I mentioned It, kid do,” said the Manicure Lady, "was to show that even the poets knows how to be as democratic as Mister Wilson. You know a lot of people think that be cause a man can make up verses he is ging around all the time with his head up in the air, making a noise like an earthquake. Nothing could be no far ther from the truth than that, George. Wilfred is one of the most democratic fellows that you ever seen.

That’s the kind of a poet that Wilfred is, George, but just the same hq’s my brother, and it anybody around here 1» going to knock his poetry 1 guess It will have to be me. He wouldn't rest easy If he thought one of you barbers was picking any flaws in his verses.” "I don’t care one way or the other,” said the Head Barber, wearily. “I had an uncle once out in Arizona that used to write som verses. His and his brother had a ranch together. He did the verse wTlting for the firm and hie brother did the work. It worked all right for a little while, because the one that wrote the verses kept bulling the other brother that some fine day one of the magazines would buy enough of his verses to help him buy another ranch. The poems kept coming back like one of them there boomerangs, and at last the brother that was doing all the work took a. good, healthy kick at the brother that was writing all the poetry, and the partnership dissolved. I don’t say that poetry writing ain’t a grand art. If you can get a little sugar for the sweet thoughts that you write, but somehow or other it seems to me that the uncle who did all of the work around the ranch was a lot more useful than the guy that was wasting a good fountain pen.” “Well, you have talked-quite a while.” said the Manicure Lady. “Now, let me say a few words. I think poets is kind of useful sometimes.
