Wait till we git a boat load of the grand fish. Pa sed, & I wlll'treei you & littel Bobbie to a feed fit for the , gods. I used to eet bullheds wen I was a littel gurl, sed Ma. My father used to catch them In the mill ponds out in Wisconsin, A if I remember rite thay was awful hard to skin & thay cer- tingly was good eeting. He used to catch them with angelworms, sed. He was no sportman, sed Pa. I al ways catch them with flies. I cast for them, Pa sed. I am going to try wurms, I toald Pa. Harry Mlsner toald me to always catch them here in this lake with wurms, & I got sum wurms from him for nothing. A lot of good wurms will do you, sed Pa. You better talk off that hook & git one of these hackle flies on yure line. No, I sed, I am going to try the worms. Wen we got to the place ware Pa thought thare wud be sum bullheds, w^ put out the ankor & Ma bet Pa a cigar aggenst a box of candy that I wud catch moar bullheds than he caught. It is like talking candy away from a child, sed Pa, but I will take the wager. I doant beleeve you will catch a bull- hed with a fly, sed Ma. Dident 1 tell you my father always used wurms? The bullheds thought yure father was a older brother, sed Pa. I always Jhought he was a kind of bullhed any- 1 way. He dident seem to think that I wud amount to much as a son in law.

Why doant you resite the bullheds that peece of poetry you rote for the bankwet the other nite. My father used to resite peeces from Byron & Ton* Moore wen he went bullhed fishing. & then I caught a awful big bullhed, that made three. We mite as well try another spot ware thay will rise to a fly, sed Pa. This spot is all rite for Bobbie, sed Ma. We will stay rite ware we are. I caught- so many bullheds that I got tired, & all Pa caught with his hackle fly was the rim of Ma’s hat. Advice to the Lovelorn By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. NOT IF IT IS WORTH WHILE. DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: I am seventeen and deeply in love with a man eleven years my senior. He often asked me to go to a show, but I refused. Do you think I will lose his affection by not accepting his invitation? X. Y. Z. If he cares for you in the right way, hts love Is not so easily lost. You do not say why you are refusing his attentions. Use Cough Drops. “Muriel,” said the old gentleman, sharply, "that young man you had in the parlor last night is dull of com prehension. All I had to do was to cough when the other chaps re mained too late and they would take the hint and depart. Did this one say anything when I coughed last night?’’ “Yes,” replied the beautiful daugh ter. “He said the next time he called he was going to bring you some cough drops." . Dark, Coarse Skin Made Soft and Fair Palmer’s Skin Whitener Postpaid^ ^ CAnywhere All Jacobs’ Stores And Druggist* Generally. D O you know what a wonder fully complicated thing a hu man being itf? Every feature, every portion of your body, every motion you make, reflects your men tal organization. I know a woman past middle life who has always been on the oppo site side of every question discussed in her presence. She was agnostic with the ortho dox, reverential with atheists, lib eral with the narrow, bigoted with the liberal. Whatever belief any one expressed on any subject she Invariably took the other extreme. She loved to disagree with her fellow men. It was her pastime. Now, to walk with that woman in silence is merely to carry on a word less argument. You can not regulate your steps so they will harmonize with hers. She will be just ahead or just be hind you, and if you want to turn to the left, she pulls to the right. A promenade with her is more ex hausting than a day’s labor. She is not conscious of it, and j would think any one very unreason able and unjust who told her of her peculiarities. h know a woman who all her life has been looking afar for happiness and peace and content, and has never found any of them, because she did not look into her own soul. She was a restless girl, and she married, believing in domestic life lay the goal of her dreams. But she was not happy there and sighed for freedom. She wanted to move, and did move, once, twice, thrice, to different points of the United States. She was discontented with each change. She is to-day possessed of all comforts and luxuries which life can afford, yet she is the same rest less soul. She likes to read, but it is always the book which she does not possess which she craves. If she is in the library with shelves book-filled she goes into the garret and hunts in old boxes for a book or a p-per which has been cast aside* If she is in a picture gallery she wants to go to the window and look out on the street, but when she is on the street it bores her and she longs to go In the house. If a member of the family is ab sent she gets no enjoyment out of the society of those at home; yet when that absent one returns her mind strays elsewhere, seeking some imagined happiness not found here. I wonder if such souls ever find it, even in the spirit realm, or if they go on there seeking and always seek ing something just beyond. It is a great gift to learn to enjoy the pres ent—to get all there is out of it, and to think of to-day as a piece of eternity. Begin now to teach your self this great art if you have not thought of it before. To be able to enjoy heaven, one must learn first to enjoy earth. DON’T know how you feel about It, Marne,” said the tall, wil lowy creature in the clinging black gown, “but unless trade In this shop picks up It’s me to look for an other place! The way Mme. Cerise’s business has slumped since folks went away for the summer is a cau tion. “Look at the way we’re stacked up with these here just from Paris glares that nobody would buy after they caught their breath and saw how aw ful they were! You’d think it was Philadelphia the way the women in sisted on quiet little things Just be fore the season closed! And these things marked down to next to noth ing!” “It’s fierce!” agreed the other wil lowy creature in black. “I bet that’s a customer—the one looking In at the window.” “You leave her to me!” hissed the first speaker, hastily patting her hair and straightening up. “My land!

Do you know, you cer tainly have an eye for style, to pick out something like that, which Is the very latest thing—we just unpacked it this morning. The shipment was de layed, and it is a little beyond the season, so it is marked down awfully low, along with everything else. “Only $22, and a month ago we’d •i.tv, got in:> for it. Why, it is the very best material, madam. I assure you. This ratine is so stylish, but if it is new to you. of course, it does remind you of a thin bath towel. I sold six dresses on this order to a stylish customer the other day. She has a big summer home at Lake Ge neva, and I tell you they wear clothes there! You had better let me show you how stunning you look in It. “Marne, did you ever? It might have been made for her—see how it fits! Oh, my, no; you wouldn’t want to take it in—everything is loose and baggy this year. You’ll get used to low neck—women wear blouses on the street nearly as low as this. By the way, Marne, bring me some of these new blouses—I want her to see them. Only $10. “Isn’t this dainty? And only $10. Perfect with your tailor suit! I’ll put this with the purple chiffon and the Bulgarian dress. You would regret it to the last day of your life if you let such bargains slip! You can just take the blouse in here—and let It out a bit there—and it will he. per fect! “Did you notice these hats? Aren’t they dears? Marked down two-thirds, madam!

Maybe you prefer this light blue canoe shape with the orange feathers in the back—doesn’t that give her style, Mnme? “Oh. you must have it! It is such a pleasure to get hold of a customer that fashionable things become as they do you! Now, if you will give me the hotel address—thank you! Ninety-one dollars and fifty cents! You certainly have wme bargains! Good morning! “Catch me, Marne! I’m going to faint! What do you think of really selling all that Junk? Come along— I’m going to strike Mme. Cerise for more pay!” it. Goodness, no! You wouldn’t want to take off that collar and sash! You're not a bit too old for such bright colors! That’s really a Joke when you can't he more than 20—well, you don’t look It. I’m sure you wouldn’t make a mistake in taking this. “All right. I’ll lay it aside for you. I want to show you something ape- cial that we keep for our best trade. Just a minute! “Marne, for goodness sake, rustle out those chiffon tilings that we’ve had a year—on the top shelf—and those blouses that every one always return*' because something was wrong with the cut—under those boxes! “Now, here!

How to Be Interesting By FRANCES L. GARSIDE. < 6 T MET a girl about four months I ago,” writes Harry, “and since A that time we have kept company and I love her very much and I think she loves me, too. We always spend our time together. Some time ago she told me that from the day we first be came acquainted I have never told her anything that would interest her. Wo talk of Incidents of the day, and I try to tell her of all I hear downtown. Will you please tell me what more I can tell to obtain her Interest?’’ Certainly. I will he glad to. I wish every young man tn the world would come to me with a similar request. You told her of the fire next door; you recounted the accident an acquaintance had with his motor boat; you recalled incidents when you were In danger on the water; you asked her what she though of the latest murder; you won dered if she thought as you do about a certain magazine; you told her every thing you could recall, from what the office boy said to the latest Congressiorv &1 scandal, and she wasn’t interested! Of course not. She might be, If you began this tale of a day's events with a statement you have never made. She might be, if at any time in the months you have been keeping company with her you had ever made that statement. And that is, “I love you!” Tell her that, and I am sure you will obtain her interest.” Tell her you love her. and I will vouch for It that you, will find yourself talking to the most Interested listener you ever had in your life, whether that life be long or short Tell her you love her, and while she hears she will not know there are others on the planet besides you two. Tell her that, and you are telling her something that will win her interest in you for the balance of your life. If you were a woman, you would have known fong ago why she has looked bored when you have speculated if worms or bugs make the best fishing bait. It was because sne did not know that you had an interest in her greater than In your subject. Tell her you love her, and thereafter, so long as you so conduct youhself that she believes It, your conversation will be as bright and scintillating as though It were made up of stars strung on. moonbeams. Tell her you love her. and prove it; and so long as love remains, the most commonplace remark you make will be received with an interest that will glor ify it and give it rank (In her opinion) among the sayings of wit and wisdom that live forever. And her opinion, my dear Harry, Is the opinion of al the world to you if you love her. YOUR EYEGLASSES .Should fit so comfortably and yet so securely that you will not be aware they are on your nose.

HAVE seen “La Belle Pazie’’ and she is! Just as bewitchingly pret ty is Mademoiselle Dazie in her own dainty Hudson-breeze-swept Apartment as when she twinkles her toes at you over the footlights. From her many charms. I singled out the wonderfully clear and well proportioned line of her lovely profile, the beautiful curve of the white shoulders and the soft, luxuriant hair. “Will you tell me a short cut to the acquisition of these three alders and abettors of beauty, Mademoiselle Da zie?’’ I asked. “I will be glad to tel you all I know about it—and I won’t pretend that I think that Is very little.’’ said the hon est star who twinkles under the Joint management of B. F. Keith and Martin Beck. “For we women of the stage have to make a study of how to he just as lovely and appealing to audiences as a hoarding of natural resources and a few additions thereto will make us. On False Hair. “About a profile—It is a good Idea to own a hand glass and to view one’s self side-face once in a while, for the coif fure that looks well from the front may make you look like a caricature of 3 leap-frog game or a door-knob from th< side! Dont’ wear false hair If you can avoid It, it will cause your own locks to depart in wrath, and it will in all probability spoil the shape of your head. THE NATURAL CONTOUR OK THE HEAD IS GENERALLY WELL WORTH SHOWING—why won’t more feminine persons remember that? A good masseuse to rub in a good tonic; a good brush, with your own arms to apply it faithfully, often and long, and you’ll have luxuriant locks to aid an uptilted poise in giving you a good pro file first rule for a good profile. “Oh, and brushing your hair is fine for your arms. Calisthenics and ex ercise will generally give you rounded contours where you want them. I am pretty slender, you know, and yet I have not scrawny arms or shoulders. JIU JITSU DID THAT. For two years I did a jiu jitsu dance with a man who weighed half again as much as I did. but I was really and truly able to throw him through my knowledge of the Jap anese art. and from the beginning of | that act I noticed how my shoulders were rounding out and developing Jiu l Mile. Dazie. •^ught not to* be an outworn fad in this country. It is well worth the consideration of any woman who wants to develop Into symmetry and strength. That and deep breathing gave me a broad, healthy singer’s diaphragm, too. Oh, yes, jiu jitsu, of thee I sing! It gives a woman confidence In her power to take care of herself, and it will aid the underdeveloped woman to put a curve where she wants It and the wom an of overluxuriant figure to take off a curve or two. “I have two more little secrets that I will be glad to give you,’’ went on the generous Dazie. “They are on the sub jects of eyes and relaxation.” For the Eyes. And very Important subjects they are. so the Interviewer’s heart was duly re joiced at what she was about to receive. “For eyes, witch hazel diluted as much or as little as you like and applied with a bit of absorbent cotton whenever the eyes are tired or dusty. That cleanses and relaxes them. “But about real relaxation, I have a theory that I most earnestly practice. Whenever fatigue threatens. I lie down flat on my back with no pillow to break the natural line of the relaxed body. Really. I fairly ‘flop.’ And there I lie with bodily tension all gone, and mind absolutely blank, and in a state of rest ful ‘suspended animation.' And I get up rested, happy and ready to go on with the day’s work “I walk, in spite of the fact that most dancers think they get enough leg mo- ] tion and exercise in the practice of their , profession. But I don’t believe one can j have too much out-of-door life, and I I believe in exercise, so I go out and get them both, and when I am tired, I just , relax completely, as I have told you. “I don’t sleep late, either, because i morning hours are best for accomplish ing things.” And as delighted Dazie has accom- 1 plishe/ so much in a short life—so much 1 for bfcauty and for art and for a willing- j ness to work and give more and more ! of grace and charm to the world, I con- j elude that her “Morning Hours” really : have “accomplished things.” Utterly Crushed. It was a warm, radiant summer morn ing; the birds were singing sweetly, the flowers and dewy grass shimmered In the sparkling sunlight, and there, in the park, Robert Peeler—a very junior offi cer—was doing his utmost to make a favorable impression on the pretty nursemaid, whilst the latter’s small charge busily chased elusive butterflies. “Ah,” sighed the dashing Robert. “I wish you were my governess!” “So do I,” replied the girl. Hope sprang into Robert’s heart. “And what would you do with me?” he asked. “Stop your smoking cigarettes, and get your hair cut—10 say nothing of punishing you for talking nonsense dur ing school hours!” Then Robert ponderously continued on his beat.
