s.rap Of nonsense they call your

through the waltz l saw you nit
while 1 sat there quite deserted,
And felt badly out Of 1t.
1,,, comet For I've been trying
For a word with you, my dear;
I've a secret am dying
To whisper in your ear.
Not here. All. here are only
A crowd and noise and glare.
There's a corner dim and lonely
In the hall, behind the stair.
Here. where this palm will screen you,
For my secret is just this:

And I'm dying for kiss

Visitors to the Maine coast. says Clara
Bele in a letter from Sargentsville, Me,

lot. and every new arrival here brings
stories from other resorts from which
they have recently come. One of these
that I have just heard was about a sum

who had threatened suit against the local
electric lighting concern. 1t seems that
at the beginning of the season the propri-
etor had his entire house. piazzas and
grounds wired for electric lights, but the
thing never worked, and the hotel opened
for the summer with its usual dim lights.
The company sent an agent down to look
into the matter, who tinkered away for
week or so, and then one evening, right
in the hight of the season, announced that
all it needed was turning on to illuminate
wherever lights were placed.
OF course with the season well along,
all the affairs were well under way. Most
OF the girls were safely enough engaged
to be flirting comfortably with the men
they liked. All the pretty wives had ar
engagements in running order whereby they
knew just when and where their husbands
were. and what places were safe at such
times. Gay boys of husbands had made
their selections. and everything was as
merry as if there were not such a thing
anywhere as a marriage bell. on this par
ticular night, the moon being under
cloud, the world. the flesh and the devil,
as good folks say, were particularly nap
py The proprietor, realizing that most
of his guests were about the piazzas and
the grounds, rubbed his hands deliShtedly.
"Wnl it light up, sure?" he asked; "the
verandas, grounds and rooms, too?" The
agent said 1t would. well, let her go,
said the proprietor, and the agent did so.
No one knew just what happened then,
but there were three public quarrels be-
tween men and women that night, two
that threatened to result in bloodshed,
and all the folks that weren't directly con-

hotel man is ruined, so is his hotel, and he
is studying how he can place suit for
damages against the company for light
ing at the wrong time. In these days the
hotel man who attempts without warning

makes a mistake.
II is a fact that a newly invented cos
metic is being much used this summer by
all the girls who want to look brown in
their yachting and bath suits and still
to appear in their ball gowns in the even
ing. This new stuff is a mixture that at
once protects the skin from sunburn and
at the same time tints it lovely rich
brown. 1t washes off only by the use of
another certain mixture, and its use was
discovered by the discharge of Miss B. IS
maid for the breaking of the precious bot
tie of the removing liquid on the very eve
of the SWEETEST hop of the season. Miss B.
couldn't go because her face and hands
didn't match. and nothing but the lost
mixture would take the dye off.
Let no young woman, says a writer in
an exchange. be disturbed over the fact
that she is shy, for to be shy If one is shy
prettily is to be very charming. Having
become satisfied of the truth of this, DOM

wrong extreme for to be shy prettily one
must be shy guardedly, so the following

ness, wishes she hadn't, although they are
directed to the girl who is really shy
that is the one who feels her cheeks be-
coming scarlet if she even thinks anybody
is looking at her. whose heart beats fast
when she is spoken to and whose limbs
actually tremble so when she has to come

The pretty pink that comes into the
cheeks is very attractive. There is no big

same pink, and dropping of the eyes at
his regard. Don't try to face out such
shyness-let it have it's own way. If the
eyelids just won't keep up let them stay
down till you are more at ease. Don't feel
that you must force yourself to behave
like the girls who are quite at ease That

1t is a great mistake to try to cover shy-
ness by a kind of crossness that makes
the other person think himself to blame
for your silence. 1t is much better to look
up honestly at him, even If your eyes are
all full of tears because you feel yourselI
