There are many young men in your
circumstances who don’t want their
gifts bto k. That is largely a matter of
tastw and a question for the lady to
decide, I’nless she takes the initia
tive by asking for a return of gifts, you
can do nothing. Such a request on the
part of the man. however justified he
may be in making it, smacks of com
mercialism.
YOU MUST NOT SEE HIM AGAIN.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am sixteen years of age and am
considered pretty. Some time ago
1 was introduced to a young man
about eight years my senior, who
later told me that he loved me
dearly.
Being of different religions, I was
positive that my parents would not
permit me to go with him, and, not
wanting to part, we have met se
cretly. But now, after keeping com
pany for almost six months, he has
asked me to elope with him, but, 1
before consenting. I write to you
asking for advice, by which I in
tend to abide. DOTTY.
Ido not like this young man. You
are only sixteen; he is eight years
your senior, and for six riionths he has
been meeting you secretly and now
wants you to elope!
My dear girl, if he loved you In the
right way he would never ask you to
do this. You must never see him again.
You must let your parents decide for
you in all matters for at least five years
to come.

TODAY’S INSTALLMENT.
IT is impossible to read and weigh the
facts in connection with the convic
tion of Oscar Slater in May, 1909, at
the high court in Edinburgh, without
feeling deeply dissatisfied with the pro
ceedings, and morally certain that justice
was not done, pnder the circumstances
of Scotch law I am not clear how far any
remedy exists, but it will, in my opinion,
be a serious scandal if the man be al
lowed upon such evidence to spend his
life in a convict prison. The verdict
which led to his condemnation to death,
was given by a jury of fifteen, who voted:
Nine for "Guilty," five for “Not proven"
and one for “Not guilty.”
Under English law. this division of
opinion would naturally have given cause
for a new trial. In Scotland the man was
condemned to death, he was only re
prieved two days before the execution,
j and he is now working out a life sentence
jin Peterhead convict establishment. How
far the verdict vi as a just one, the reader
| may judge for himself when he has pe
rused a connected story of the case.
There lived in Glasgow, in the year
i 1908, an old maiden lady named Miss
I Marion Gilchrist. She had lived for 30
' years in the one flat, which was on the
i first floor in 15 Queen’s terrace. The flat
above hers was vacant, and the only im
' mediate neighbors were a family named
Adams, living on the ground floor below,
their house having a separate door,
which was close alongside the flat en
trance.
The old lad\ had one servant, named
Helen Lambie. who was a girl 21 years
Milady’s Toilet Table
(By Mme. D’Mille.)
I ..
"For dark and discolored patches, sal
lowness and complexion blemishes, there
is nothing better than a lotion made by
dissolving a package of mayatone in a
half pint of witch hazel. It gives a more
youthful color and smoother finish than
any face powder, and will not rub off or
show. It keeps the skin soft and satiny.
“On every toilet table there should be a
jar of Mother’s salve. You can’t look your
I best when suffering, and Mother's Salve
relieves pain almost instantly. Hub on

—THE game that he WAS to have
played up big in—went with his best
friend and to have gloated on
his playing with her two blue, true
blue eyes—went in her white furs
and the little white “toque” that is so
fetching against the black velvet of
her hair and WAS to have tucked a
white “mum” in the lacings over his
of age. This girl had been with Miss
Gilchrist for three or four years.
By all accounts Miss Gilchrist was a
most estimable person, leading a quiet
• and uneventful life. She was comfortably
’ off, and she had one singular characteris
, tic for a lady of her age and surroundings,
, in that she had made a collection of jew
’ elry of considerable value. These jewels,
which took the form of brooches, rings.
, pennants, etc., were bought at different
■ times, extending over a considerable
’ number of years, from a reputable jew
’ eler.
Her Jewelry.
• I lay stress upon the fact, as some wild
1 rumor was circulated at the time that the
’ old lady might herself be a criminal re
ceiver. Such an idea could not be enter
tained. She seldom wore her jewelry,
’ save in single pieces, and as her life was
' a retired one, it is difficult to sec how
. any one outside a very small circle could
1 have known of her hoard. The value of
' this treasure was about three thousand
, pounds. It was a fearful joy which she
, snatched from its possession, for she
■ more than once expressed apprehension
’ that site might be attacked and robbed.
Her fears»,had the practical result that
she attached two patent locks to her front
door, and that she arranged with the
Adams family underneath that in case of
alarm she would signal them by knocking
upon the floor.
It was the household practice that Um
, ble. the maid, should go out and get an
evening paper for her mistress about 7
o’clock each day. After bringing the
paper, she then usually went aut again
upon the necessary shopping. This rou
; tine was followed upon the night of De
cember 21. She left her mistress seated
by the fire in the dining room, reading
a magazine. Lambie took the keys with
her. shut the flat door, closed the hall
door downstairs, and was gone about ten
• minutes upon her errand. It is the events
. of those ten minutes which form the
tragedy and the mystery which were so
j soon to engage the attention of the pub
lic.
, According to the girl’s evidence, ft was
a minute or two before 7 when she went
■ out. At about 7 Arthur Adams and his
two sisters were in their dining room,
immediately below the room in which
the old lady had been left. Suddenly
they heard "a noise from above, then a
, very heavy fall, and then three sharp
knocks." They were alarmed at the
sound, and the young man at once set
off to see if all was right. He ran out
of his hall door, through the hall door
of the flats, which was open, and so up
to the first floor, where he found Miss
Gilchrist's door shut. He rang three
times without an answer. From within,
howeter. he heard a sound which he com
pared to the breaking of sticks. He im
agined. therefore, that the servant girl
■ was within, and that she was engaged
in her household duties.
THE MAID EXPLAINS.
After waiting for a minute or two. be
I seems to have convinced himself that all
was right. He, therefore, descended again
and returned to his sisters, who persuaded
him to go up once more to the flat.
This he did, and rang for the fourth time.
As he was standing with his hand upon
i the bell, straining his ears and hearing
nothing, some one approached *up the
stairs from below. it was the young
servant maid, Helen returning
from her errand. The two held counsel
for a moment. Young Adams described
. the noise Which had been heard. Lambie
i said that the pulleys of the clothes lines
in the kitchen must have given way.
It was a singular explanation, since
ihe kitchen was not above the dining
room of the Adamses, and one would not
’ expect any great noise from the fall of a
cord which suspended sheets or towels
However, it was a moment of agitation,
and the girl may have said the first ex
planation which came into her head. She

pared to swear that she remained upon
the mat beside young Adams. Adams is
equally positve that she walked several
paces down the hall. This hall was lit by
a gas jet W’hich, turned half up, and
shining through a colored shade, gave
a sufficient, but not a brilliant, light.
Says Adams: “I stood at the door on
the threshold, half in and half out, and
just when the girl got past the clock to
go into the kitchen, a well dressed man
appeared. I did not suspect him, and she
said nothing; and he came up to me quite
pleasantly. I did not suspect anything
wrong for the minute. I thought the
man was going to speak to me till he got
past me, and then I suspected some
thing wrong, and by that time the girl
ran into the kitchen and put the gas
up and said it was all right, meaning her
pulleys. 1 said: ’Where is your mis

* Little Bobbie’s Pa *

MA & me found but yesterday’ that
Pa dident know anything about

Ma dident say vary much then, bee
cause she is so used to heel ing Pa tell
about all the things he knows & all the
things that other peepul doesent know
that it is a joak to Ma every time Pa

Wen we got up to Mister Hardie’s
farm Ma met Missus Hardie. She was
just as sweet as Ma and rite away the
two of them started visiting, so us men
went to look at the farm. All the way
oaver to the big barn ware Mister Har

imw he had rode the range out in Ari

Sum of the steers & cows that I beat

These cows of mine is different, sed
Mister Hardie. Thay are all blooded

Whooping cough is the subject o f

i meat, and given to a dog, the whoop
i ing cough will be transferred to the
- animal. In Cornwall the child is fed

s How to Make
| Better Cough Syrup than |
u You Can Buy
A Family Supply, Saving $2 and
Fully Guaranteed.
I B l~J«fcc=aa I EEs!
A full pint of cough syrup—as much
ns you could buy for $2.50 —can easily
be made at home. You will find nothing
that takes hold of an obstinate cough
more quickly, usually ending it inside of
24 hours. ~ Excellent, too, for croup,
whooping cough, sore lungs, asthma,
hoarseness and other throat troubles.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
% pint of v.arm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 2’a ounces of Pinex (fifty
cents’ worth) in a pint bottle, then adil
the Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is just laxative enough to help
cure a cough. Also stimulates the appe
tite, which is usually upset by a cough.
The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inflamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is the most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and all the natural
healing pine elements. Other prepara
tions will not work in this formula.
The Pinex and Sugar Syrup recipe is
now used by thousands of housewives
throughout the United States and Can
ada. The plan has been imitated, but
the old successful formula has never
been equaled.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your drugm’st has Pinex, or will
get it for you. If not, send to The
Pinex Co., Pt, Wayne, Ind.

anything for one that is too fat. 1 have
tried several remedies but they do not
help."
Answer: I would not advise the use of
the ordinary tablets and pills for reduc
ing weight, but here is a safe, quick and
sure remedy. Get 5 ozs. of aromatic
elixir and 1 oz. of glycol arbolene. Mix
by shaking well and take a teaspoonful
after meals for the first three days and
then double the dose. A reduction of a
pound a day is not unusual after the first
week or two.
"Q. R.” writes: "Please advise some
thing to take that will cure chronic con
stipation. I have suffered for years and
have used many kinds of pills, but they
do not cure."
Answer: I think most of the illness is
caused by chronic constipation. If the
following tablets are taken regularly they
will gradually effect a cure, as they stim
ulate the liver and bowels Into healthy
action. They are packed in sealed tubes
and are called three-grain sulpherb tab
lets (not sulphur tablets) witli full di
rections for taking. They will also purify
the blood and tone up the entire system.
If you are dyspeptic, take tablets trio
peptine. These two medicines you will
find in any up-to-date drug store.
