When Jack Was Away the Girls Fixed
 Up His Room.
 Away on his vacation was Jack, and while he was gone the dear girls thought it would be a perfectly sweet idea to fix up his room. It was rather demoral- ized looking apartment from feminine point of view, but regarded through masculine orbs it was just about right and perfectly comfortable.
 But the girls wanted to surprise Broth CT Jack.
 So they invaded the sanctum one day and transformed it. They threw out the collection of old pipes on the mantel and turned Pauline Halls picture to the wall. They gave Jacks old slippers to the janitor and tied pale blue cushions on his leather chair. They painted for getmenots on his boxing gloves and put a drapery of lowered chintz over the collection of photographs which adorned his cabinet. They tied bows on every thing, from the coal scuttle to the pic ture nails, and hung spiky ornaments on the gas jet with baby blue ribbon. They burned up collection of newspaper clip pings which Jack had taken five years to accumulate and they decorated the face of his shaving glass with spray of convolvulus.
 They embroidered tender little senti- ments and stuck them all over regard. lessly-"A Friend in Need" on the soap dish, Think of Me" on the liquor stand and Sweets to the Sweet" on the shoebag.
 Then they stood of and admired it.
 It was too lovely for anythingl
 Then Jack came home and they watched him to see how hs would take it.
 He looked about him in dazed sort of way first and put his hand to his fore head.
 What is this for?' he said in hoarse voice, touching small fluffy pincush- ion which stood on the floor.

 "Well, the idea! That's only the bootjack. We stuck the shoehorn to it and gilded them, and now you can keep matches in it."

 "Well, do feel little rocky; but say, before you go, what's this wriggling collection of blue snakes over the bedI" "That's an illuminated motto. Cant you read it!'
 "No, blessed if can. What is it?" "Why, it's just as plain as day-'God Bless This Flat It will hang right over your head every night!"
