and the extensiveness of the crowds.
But tomorrow is to make a better
record-for the offerings are better,

for. Make YOUR plans to be here.

When you consider the fact that,
Notwithstanding prices are so won
derfully reduced for the Hour Sales,
you are at perfect liberty to have all

each Friday. 100000 people indorse
the Hecht plan.

Don't you remember Mabel Brewer,
Aunt Helen's adopted daughter? I
met her two years ago when l was
visiting on the farm, and-well, love
her; that's all. know she's not as
swagger as the girls in Kathie's set.
She won't shine in society, but don't

Kathie's going to cut big swath. l

Mabel. She has her ideals of what a
physician should be, and If l live up
to them reckon you won't have cause
to be ashamed of me-"
They were under the porte cochere.
Without word Amos Shepard tossed
aside the fur robes.
II say, dad, you're not angry"
His father stood beside the cutter
gazing up at a window screened by
flmy lace. Suddenly he wheeled
around and faced his son. Something
the latter had never seen shone in
Amos Shepard's eyes.
Reginald, you remember that Van
Twiller place on Grant avenue? It's
not large or snowy, but it's mighty
pretty little house. Well, I'll deed that

And now I've got to write line to

And Amos Shepard, banker and
member of congress, ran up the granite
steps like boy.

man who had lost her husband in the

for herself and her little ones by writ

which had no special distinction and

that followed this rejection she sat
down with pen afame and told "why l

"There are two ways" said a bird
dealer. "of teaching a parrot to talk.
One way is to put him in darkened
room, to sit in a corner and to repeat
over and over again the word you
want him to acquire. A clever parrot
will learn word or phrase after
some 400 or 500 repetitions while for
some 1t takes week or more. You
must keep still in the room. No sounds
from within or without the house
save your voice. m0notonously repeat
ing the phrase to be acquired, must
reach the parrots ear. Some people
teach their birds in a well lighted
room. speaking from a place of con-
cealment in 10 closet or behind a door.
This method is not SO good, because in
the light the parrots attention is dis
tracted."
