The angling season being we'll on,
the usual number Of mishaps will oc-
cur with the fish hook. When this
accident happens the hook, if not too
deeply imbedded in the flesh, may
generally be removed without surgi-
cal aid. IF the hook is fastened in the
hand cut the line from the hook, turn
the point upward and push it through
as a needle would be in sewing. If
the hook has a broad end or eye snip
this off before attempting to remove
it. Do not try to draw the hook out
backward, as the barb will lacerate
and infiame the flesh.

anu sleepy, careleSsly lald open the
pages of her frailty's private diary
and the man read. Having read, he
knew, and was numbed. So, in the
ghostly morning twilight, he CROPPED
his way out into the No Mans Land
which lies between the alleys of ex-
IRENE and realized that he had not
fought the real world after all. Still,
he had lost his own, and when

did not go into another alley, you
know. He wandered into the clois-
tiers of white marble temple, because
in the brightness of the sunlight
which came after dawn, he saw pure
presence rl-standing on the
threshold. He approached the pres
/ ence, SO he longed for rest, though
i after his two phases he felt he had no
right She was SO pure and white;
/ the Innocence Of knowing no thing
cleaning on her forehead. She could
not, like the others, conduct him into
her world, because she had not yet
crossed the threshold of the temple
herself; and she knew nothing of that
which he had lived and seen. Still
she was girl, and his worship pleas
ed her. Very sweetly, though all un-
knowingly, she helped him TO ia Ike
his stand beside her on the threshold;
she understanding nothing, and never
dreaming but that he, too, had the
earliest phases to pass and could en-
ter her temple with her. But when
her innocence Of ignorance had
spread itself round the man for awhile
the crude purity of t-the"-

seeing, nothing understanding spot

said the man in the drawing room.
''And he realized that since he had
not at the beginning found this world
he could not enter it now, or at least
not accompanied by the cold white
ness of the little maid who hath no
breasts So now, in real despair, he
turned away from the classic temple,
feeling not only that he had failed to
find the real world, but was unfit to
be taken into it. Then, as he walked
miserably away, an angel from
heaven came across his path and laid
her cool hand on his forehe ad, so

man. But she showed him that he
was already in the real world and that
she was, too, but that he kept going
into little phases of life, and thinking
each was life itself, was almost brok
en- hearted when he found himself un
fitted to live in phase. He was very
happy with the woman, because he
loved her, and yet, thinking that he
must be of some one of the phases
the little phases-he had seen, not
knowing that they were of him mere
