Silencing the Philosopher. “Yes,” remarked the philosopher; ‘deafness is indeed a terrible afflic tion. But in such cases nature, you know, always provides some compen sation. At any rate, if a man deficient in one sense, he usually has another abnormally developed. Now, 1 once knew a poor blind fellow’ whose sense of touch was positively uncan ny. Really, it served him almost as well as eyes do a normal man.” “Sure,” said the genial Irishman, who hitherto had taken no part in the discussion, ‘‘an’ I’ve noticed that, too! There’s a friend of mine, he’s lame, poor chap, but he can get about almost as easily as you or I.

Nell Brinkley Says HEY call il “1 LOVE \ r OU.” The Kings of Babylon and the slaves by the river sang it with equal fervor. In faeryland they know it. Adam brought it home to Eve and sang it tirelessly. On the plaintive “uku lele” of soft-aired Hawaii thev have played it since the isles were born. Steel iMT . .... arid Iron clad men of the rough days of chivalry caroled it to the maids they met from the broad hacks of their dray horses. Cleopatra whined -it in her honey-sweet voice to dull-witted Antony. In the backwoods of Tennessee they know it. In the gray, melancholy uplands of wild Thibet rough-haired youths whisper it to bead-strung slant eyed girls. In the hidden corner of the music room, screened in spikes of fruit blossoms, a smart young chap hums it to a girl who never twisted up her own hair in her life, and out in the country, in an orchard, on the top rail of a gray old worm fence, a boy in a blue “jumper” chants it to a girl in a pink sunbonnet shading her sun-browned cheeks. Oh, it s a popular song—everybody knows it and everybody always did know it. WITHIN THE LAW A Powerful Story of Adventure, Intringe and Love Some Revenge.

The Bashful Boy By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. “W HAT I would like to ask.” writes Rebecca, "is why It Is better for a girl to asso ciate with a bashful boy. On several occasions I have noticed that you state ihai a girl .should honor such a young man, but you have never stated why.” The qualities in a bashful boy which make him a welcome suitor are more of a negative nature than of a posi tive. It is not that which he does, so much as that which he does not do. His sins are of omisslofi and they are small compared with the sins of com mission of his bolder brother. The bashful boy doesn't flirt. With a tongue that halts and stammers, and a tell-tale color that is quicker than the blush of a young girl to proclaim his dishonesty did he attempt to be dishonest, he is not an adept at hypocrisy or concealment. He is not a dandy. Neither is he a lady’s man, andf my dear Rebecca, the presidents of banks and railroads, the powers in commercial life, the most prefound thinkers and the men of letters the world honors, were never ladies' men. His Hands. He does no. know what to do with his hands when nut in society, but his employer will tell you he knows good use frr them when at work. Afraid cf girls he Is forced to seek companionship in books and hoys. The fear of girls gives him a respect for them which is wholesome; the com panionship of boys gives him the out door exercise every young man needs. He needs this tiring of every^muscle, not alone for the results that are phys ical, but for moral returns. You are not too young, my dear, to know that the wolf that has been racing furiously up and down hill all day feels at night only the cry of tired limbs and aching muscles begging for rest. He is not the wolf that goes seeking an opening to break into the sheepfold! If a bashful boy-doves a'girl It is with a sense of humility ancj his own unworthiness. He knows that he is the one who wili be honored if his love is returned; his bolder brother has a faint suspicion, which the homage of silly girls confirms, that it is the girl • who should be on her knees. A Safe Way. During his calf days he does all his signing for love’s sake at a distance, which mothers will agree is the only safe and sane way for young girls to bo loved. • He is always a good listener—no tveman was ever bored to death by the talking of a bashful man. Saying little, he says little for which l?e or others have cause for regret. He is a safe depository for secrets, a good man In whom to have confidence. If he is not a girl's lover the next best thing that could happen her would be to have him for a brother or a friend. His compliments are not practiced, and are therefore sincere. When it takes effort and .stupendous courage to hand a modest little flow-er to a girl, it follows that he will never throw bou quets at the head of every woman he meets. Best of all, Rebecca, the bashful boy is a home boy. He is unafraid when with his mother and finds in her com panionship the delight less bashful boys seek from home. He is “a good boy" in the sweet pld- fashioned sense, a boy who has escaped contamination a few years later than it comes to boys* more bold. Copyright. 1913. by the H. K. Fly Com pany.

"I guess we can find a way to have the marriage annulled, or whatever they do to marriages that don’t take.” The brutal assurance of the man in thus referring to things that were sacred moved Dick to wrath.

"Why, that’s what I'm paid to do. Listen to me. son. The minute you begin mixing up with crooks, you ain't in a position to give orders to any ore. The crooks have got no rights in the eyes of the polio* .lust j remember that.” He Was Not Listening. The Inspector spoke the simple truth as he knew it from years of experience. The theory of the law is that a presump tion of innocence exists until the ac cused is proven guilty. But the police are out of sympathy with such finical methods. With them, the crook is pre sumed guilty at the outset of whatever may be charged against him. If need he. there will be proof a-plenty against him of the sort that the underworld knows to Us sorrow. But Dick was not listening. His thoughts were again wholly with the woman he hived, who, as the Inspector declared, hex! fled from him. “Where’s she gone in Chicago?” Burke answered in his usual gruff fashion, but with a note of kindliness that was not without its effect on Dick. "I’m no mind reader.” he said, she's a swell little girl, all right. I've got to hand it to her for that. So. she'll probably stop at the Blackstone—that Is. until the Chicago police are tipped off that she is in town.” Of a sudden, the face of the young man took on a totally different expres sion. Where before had been anger, now was a vivid eagerness. He went close to the Inspector, and spoke with intense seriousness. "Burke.” he said, pleadingly, "give me a chance. I’ll leave for Chicago In the morning. Give me twenty-four hours' start before you begin hounding her." The Inspector regarded the searchingl\\ His heavy face was drawn in an expression of apparent doubt. Ab- CATALOG FOR END in ne\ ruptly, then, he smiled acquiescence. “Seems reasonable,” he admitted. But the father strode tqi his son. “No, no, Dick,” he cried. "You shall not go. You shall not go.” Burke, however, shook his head in re monstrance against Gilder's plea. His huge voice came booming, weightily Im pressive "Why not?” he questioned. “It’s a fair gamble. And. besides. I like the boy’s nerve.” Dick seized on the admission eagerly. "And you’ll agree?” he cried. "Yes. I'll agree.” the Inspector an swered. “Thank you,” Dick said quietly. But the father was not content. On the contrary, he went toward the two hurriedly, with a gesture of reproval. "You shall not go. Dick.” he declared, impetuously. The Inspector shot a word of warning to Glider in an aside that Dick could not hear. “Keep still," he replied. "It's all right.” Dick went on speaking with a seri ousness suited to the magnitude of his Interests. “You give me your word. Inspector.” But ; he said, "that you won't notify the po lice in Chicago until I’ve been there twenty-four hours?” “I Don’t Like It." “You’re on," Burke replied genially. "They won’t get a whisper out of me until the time is up.” He swung about to face the father, and there was a com plete change in his manner. “Now, then, Mr. Gilder,” he said briskly, "I want to talk to you about another little mat ter " Dick caught the suggestion, and in terrupted quickly. "Then I’ll go.” He smiled rather wanly at his father. "You know. Dad, speaker j> m gorr y f but I’ve got to do what I think the right thing.” Burke helped to save the from the growing tenseness. “Sure," he cried heartily; have! Tliat’s the best any do.” He watched keenly as man went out of the room, until the door dosed after Dick that he I spoke. Then he dropped to a sea; on ! the couch, and proceeded to make his I confidence to the magnate. "He'll go :o .Chicago in the morning.} you think, don’t you?” "Certainly,” Gilder answered. "But 1 don't like It.” Burke slapped his leg with an enthu siasm that might have broken a weaker member. "Best thing that could have hap pened!” he vociferated. And then, as Gilder regarded him in astonishment, he added, chuckling: "You see, he won’t find her there.’’ "Why do you think that?" Gilder de manded, greatly puzzled.
