Yes, the pity of it—that children, little chil
dren, four, five, seven years of age, must be
stunted and twisted by long hours of toil.
Imagine a little baby girl—your little baby
girl—standing all day at a table painfully
sorting the petals of artificial roses. Imagine
the dirt and squalor of the disease-ridden ten
ements. The sunlight never penetrates where
these babies have to labor—human flowers
withered in the making of artificial ones. And
the average wage for each child is 2 cents an
hour. Imagine it—in this country of ours
that we call enlightened.
You, the thinking men and women of America,
must come to the rescue of the forlorn little
six-year-old who toils so long for so meagre a
pittance. Hers is a tearful plea that should
reach the heart of every parent among us.
Good Housekeeping Magazine, with the vigor
that has always characterized its work, is
attacking the evils of child labor and its at
tendant home work. It is employing such
fearless investigators as Judge Lindsey, George
Creel, Mary Alden Hopkins, Mary Louisa
Chamberlain. But it cannot carry on the
campaign alone. You must do your share

"Little cousin,” h'e said with the
deep tenderness of the man who
finds happiness in the joy of the
woman he loves, though he be shut
from her very life, "there is nothing
the matter with me. Life gives me
almost all I want. No one can have
everything. A banker’s life has not
much color and passion; I would
rather make music than money. But
don’t t,hink he stupidly discontented
—or ungrateful for all I have. I can
not say all I mean! There is one
thing in the world—in ALL THE
WORLD there is one thing I want.
For this I would give the wofld Itself,
if It were mine—and all the money in
the world. And all life would be
music, and color and passion then.
And I can’t tell you—I must never
speak of It to you—and you will
never understand!”
Outside sunshine and rcses—here
renunciation of al lthe Joy life must
never hold. Jacob felt that he must
stifle' In this IItie room where hope
had died. He strode to the doorway
—to the gleaming terrace.
The Old Story.
And then slowly, swayed by a feel
ing she felt must be pity, Charlotte
followed him, "Jacob, perhaps I do
understand.”
"Charlotte! If you do—I shall have
spoken no word. In a senae it was
not honorable of me—though at first
I only meant to warn you, and I
never thought; I should iard you
against myself Dear little Char
lotte—forget what I said!”
“I cannot forget—so easily!” Char
lotte’s eyes were very soft, her little
quivering lips were dangerously near,
but Dame Fate had chosen capri
ciously to make this a day of unfin
ished climaxes, and only Frau Guda-
la’s ready wit and loving heart inter
vened between the girl and a rather
tragic scene, for at the particular
moment when ihe sunny doorway
framed the pretty picture she made
as she stood looking pleadingly at a
sorely-tempted Jacob, the hall door
opened, admitting the Duke and Frau
Gudula and her sons.
Gustavus of Taunus was asking; "I
may have the honor of addressing
your daughter?’’ and Grannie saved
the situation. "There is wine in the
garden—if you will honor me. Char
lotte, deer, will you and Jacob show
Count Fehrenberg the way? Duke
Gustavue, could you make up your |
mind to a little chat with an old j
woman? Would you stop here with ;
me—-alone—for a few minutes? I ask
it as a favor.” And Grannie pre- j
pared to make her fight for the hap- |
piness of her children.
"May I forget for a few moments
that I am an old Jewess—and you a
reigning Prince? I want to speak to
you about Charlotte. She lost her
mother many years ago—and now, at
this Important time of her life. 1
must try to be a mother to the child.
My eon Solomon, you know, soihe-
tlmes secs only one side to a ques
tion, the one he wants to sre. But
I have looked at this marriage be-
twtan you and Charlotte from many
points of view—have you? Do you
see the difficulties and danger?”
Gustavus thought for a moment of
the girl who wished him to make this
marriage in order that she might
be the cousin of a wealthy man in--
stead of a pauper Prince. The tricksy
Jade with her lying eyes—and for one
supreme moment he had thought per
haps he and Evelyn might abdicate
and face poverty together—well, she
wanted money—on with the dance
called life! Prince of Taunus, must
dance to his piping—then dancev mer
rily and proudly for all the world to
see.
He answered the earnest old Jewess
lightly indeeV "Oh, I admit the dan
gers in this marriage, Baroness. But
they make the prospect more fas
cinating—to me. After all, I do not
want my future comfortably laid out
for me with mathematical certainty!
I prefer to run a litle risk! I have
lived In a world that grows tired of
old games—and is always ready to
learn new rules!”
“But marriage is not a game,” said
the old woman. To her marriage was
a Sacrament.
"It may be an adventure if the
consequences are not too early seen.
Why, my life has ben one series of
adventures. When I was* a child Na
poleon^ was shaking the ground he
marched over. One day my father’s
little throne fell down, and was
picked up and dropped into the Cor
sican sack! I have known exile, and
my crown has been restored to me.
I have had money—and it has gone—
well, perhaps, I should have had to
go after it—pouf!—if your sons had
not now once again lifted me upon
my little throne. Oh, you see,
Baroness, I have had my ups and
downs."
“You treat me as a plaything.
What blessing can there he for a
girl of my people in sharing such a
life?”
"When I married, Baroness”—
"Don’t call me that! It is a pre
tense that does not please me,” said
tb*e oid Jewess impatiently to the
reigning Duke of Taunus.
Gustavus exclaimed in amazement:
"A pretense! The Emperor has—-”
"Your Highness," interposed the
old woman, "no Emperor can enno
ble me—at my age Qf seventy-one.
Rank is not worn so easily by old
woman.”
Gustavus of Taunus rose to the
supreme height of his manhood as,
with a sudden Illuminating respect
for a fineness he might have failed
to glimpse in his little cousin’s soul,
but saw now’ In full splendod in the
gentle mien of the old Jewess, he
answered Frau Gudula: "I think,
madame, you belong to a more an
cient nobility than my own.”
Then, in a little access of mischief,
he added: "1 shall be proud to bo
connected with you by rparriage.”
Frau Gudula had played her high
est stake for Charlotte’s happiness—
and had failed! “Give your compli
ments to my grandchild; Duke. Gus-
tavus, and convince her with them if
you can. I wash my hands of this
marriage. The matter Is beyftnd me.
I pray Providence to guide and guard
my little girl.” With brimming eyes
that scarce could set? the ttwishlne,
Frau Gudula walked to the door by
the great arbor of pink roses and
looked at the merry group sipping
her beloved Meyer Amschel’s bur
gundy out in the garden. Well, it is
not given to every woman to be the
w ife of a man she can worship. Poor
little Charlotte.

a minute, Gordon," he added, "1 want
to say something to Mr. Callaway.”
and he (frew the president to an In
ner office, where he told him the little
he had been able to learn about Kelly.
When he had concluded, Callaway
said:
"And you signed him up on the
strength of that drive that broke the
bull's ribs?”
"Yea. sir; that was enough for me.”
"Well, Billy, you know I consider
you are best manager in the world.
And 1 reckon you know what you're
doing. T will put through thiw con
tract. nut remember. Billy, you must
shoulder all the responsibility. If
this Gordon Kelly ’blows up’ the
laugh will be on you, not me."
‘Til take my chances on that,” said
the manager, confidently.
"Anyway, it- will make good read
ing in the newspapers. Send for the
reporters, Billy, and we’ll tell ’em all
about your world beater ”
The reporters came, they saw, but
they w'ere not conquered. They took
copious notes of all the manager told
‘ them, but they refused tq "fall” for

his shape andr looks hut demanded
that they be "shown" before commit

Within twenty-four hours Bill
Smith was the recipient of all sorts
of pleasant jibes Every friend or

to say about the “world beater." The
manager took everything In good
part, but mentally acknowledged that
he had overplayed himself tn making
public the signing of Gordon Kelly.
“1 ought to have said nothing abo.if

Alperman was the first of the new

his shoes and then arose and‘stretch

"Gee. 1 wish the Southern League

This remark caused a great laugh

Household Suggestions
A little soap shredded into the boil
er on washing day makes the clothes
a good color, and if you put a small
piece into the starch it will make the
ironing easier, and it imparts a lovely
gloss to the clothes. All the little
bits of soap that are left over should
be put into a Jar with'a little water.
Place the jar In a moderate oven and
leave until the soap has dissolved.
Tffl* is excellent for washing flannels
and woollen things.

A good way in which to keep plants

all-embracing reason that without the

a farce, instead of an art.
"However, any girl can teach her
eyebrows to grow in a smooth, pretty
curve by brushing them at night and
morning with a tiny brush; and good
cream will keep the face clean as to Its
pores as well as on the surface; and a
well-poised head adds a final touch of
charm. Girls should cultivate the habit
of holding their heads with the natural
poise of a flower instead of jutting for

the curve of a lightning-struck tree.
