IN THE SECOND HALF
BY DOROTHY BLACKMORE.

80 Temporal: O mores!" read Bob
TerbeI, Harvards half-back, as he sat
in his room mechanically translating
Cicero's first Grafton against Catalina.
Yes, Cicero, old man." he said, ir-
reverently, those are my sentiments,
too. What a time! What a state of
affairsl' indeed, when fellow can't

love with
The big football player slammed his
book shut and leaned back IN his cnair,
leaving the Latin translation to take
care of itself.
To lounge dejectedly in his chair,
gazing pensively at the mantelpiece,
had become one of Bob's daily occupa-
tons. Perhaps the white letters,
-L-L-E-S-L-E-Y, standing out
conspicuously on a pennant in the CEN
ter, had fascinated him. Perhaps the
mere knowledge that she had given it
to him made Fate seem less cruel.
Be that as it may, the Wellesley pen
nant held the place of honor in the
room, the spot wherein the photograph
of the reigning queen of the football
players heart had hitherto stood. a
long row of pretty faces reaching
across the wall told their own story of
a brief reign. And now, where each
in turn had stood, hung an inanimaJe
pennant.
Tom was rudely recalled from dream
land by a knock at the door.
Come I'M" he shouted, inhospitably
and without looking around.
Whats up. Bob?" inquired Ned

SNAKE HYPNOTISM.

Graham Peck, a well-known author
ity on snakes, was asked his opinion
regarding a snakes hypnotic powers,
His reply was as follows:
There is a certain power to fasci-
nate in snakes eyes and movements,
/ saw only the other day typical
illustration of the power of a snake to
fascinate.
over in the pine woods 1 saw a
ground squirrel fascinated by a black
gopher snake. The forked tongue dart
ed out of the snakes mouth almost
as regularly and rapidly as the needle
of a sewing machine rises and falls.
The squirrel seemed to watch ii spell
bound. The snake crept slowly nearer.
When the gopher snake was within
two or three inches of the squirrel it
gave a leap and threw three coils
about the squirrel Instantly the spell
was gone. The fascination or charm
there had been over the little animal
was no doubt broken the very moment
the serpents coils were about the
squirrel, for the animal gave three
convulsive, terrified chirps and realiz-
ed that its death moment had come.
Il believe implicitly that all snakes
have a certain degree of power to
fascinate their victims to death Black
snakes, gopher snakes and racers have
the power TO a large degree. Rattle
snakes. have the most fascinating

into imagining that II WAS the glance

strong lungs and clear compilations. ,
Don't carry your worries to bed
with you, if YOU want to have a
smooth skin and attractive express
sion.
Don't take your beauty sleep after
in the morning, but before IL at
night.
Don't sleep in garments worn dur
ing the day.
Don't wash your face before going
out in the sun or wind.
Don't go out in the sun sans hat,
sans veil, sans gloves, unless you want
the complexion of a North American
Indian.
Don't use the complexion brush
with a heavy hand.
Don't put the complexion brush
away without scalding it.
Don't put sticky cold creams on the
face.
Don't wear a facemark at night.
Your skin needs all the air it can get.
Don't try to doctor a miserable
complexion with medicine taken by
the quart. Substitute exercise, air and
wholesome food for drugs, and the
completion will take care of itself.
Don't flatter yourself that it is
enough to have glossy hair, pearly
teeth and brilliant complexion. You
must also have a graceful gait and
a sweet voice, and top all off with a
pleasing expression.
Don't get angry. Anger has a di7
rect effect upon the complexion, just
as worry has.
Don't get blue, don't be jealous.
Both blue and green are bad colors
taken in the raw state, when beauty
is at stake.
Don't be fretful, impatient or fault
finding. They all disfigure the face,
derange the nervous system and make
you old before your time.
Don't be less careful of your
thoughts than of what you eat and
drink Nothing so quickly affects the
beauty of the face as ones thoughts.
Guard your thoughts, since they are
the die which stamps your face.

A few minutes later. when they
stepped into the street together. Ned
ran on ahead and disappeared around
the corner, ostensibly to telephone a
friend. But the telephone message was
written on a telegraph blank and read:

A curious coincidence in regard to a
certain James Rogers is that he was
contemporary with another James
Rogers. Each had a wife named Mary,
the wives died. about the same time,
and each James married a second wife.

And a long time afterward, when he
had taken off his football clothes ana

he said: do you suppose, dear, that
you could help me win the battle of

said. And they began on the second

AS the rain ceased its gentle fall and
turned into a slight drizzle, two fig
ures emerged out of the darkness into
the glow of an electric light and walk
ed along the park path to a bench,
whose background was a clump of
fragrant Powered bushes.
Such a perfectly cosy place"
breathed the young woman, as the
man took handkerchief from pock-
ct and carefully wiped the water off
two seats.
Then they sat down with contented
signs; and a few minutes later, when
the jewellers of the neighborhood pour
ed into the square with the peeping
out of the first star, they were Two
souls with but a single thought.
Neither the constant shutting of feet
on all sides nor the varied procession
before the pair caused them to unloose
interlocked hands, or her to take her
head from close proximity to his
shoulder. Their mutual contemplation
bespoke ignorance of the presence of
broadly smiling strangers.
1t is such scenes as this that makes
lHG SIIldll park OIL New I DIX city on
sun mer's night an excellent chart
of the human heart and mind. Day
in the average metropolitan park is
tame and monotonous. Everybody is
more or less conventional. Humanity
is on its dignity. Even the few chill
dren scattered about and the grown
idlers on the benches play and doze
with a restrained air. But with fall
of night the park becomes a board on
which the gamut of human feelings is
run; and much that is serious and
tragic, amusing and comical and
frivolous and insane is seen and heard
in and beyond the reach of the yellow
lights.

city gasps for breath, but especially

their bashfulness and tenderly clasp
hands and draw closer under the mel
lowing bars of Annie Laurie"
This is the best of all times for the
photographer after studies to get in
good work. So intent will the lovers
and the other people be on their af-
fairs that they will not notice the
camera pointed in their direction, and
when the flashlight goes off they will
still remain ignorant of the fact that
they have been taken holding hands
or wrapped in reverie.
Where the LOrers Are Found.
The couples a-wooing are not to
be found beneath the band pavilion.
Thither flock those who love music
for the noise it makes-the small boy
and his sister. There, too, are found
the staid married couples and the
childrens parents, so that the favor
its place for the family party in the
park is marked and made unchange-
able by the youngsters.
The wooers are found on the out
skirting benches in company with
solitary figures who listen to the
music for the thoughts it brings UP,
and the homeward bound workers.
who pause for moment to catch a
strain and then tramp on again.
Here, as the melodies sound softly
from the bandstand, such scraps of
conversation as these are borne on
the air for all who Mapped around to
hear.
Arthur" very timorously from
the seat along the walk underneath
the big elm tree.
Yes, dearie," in a aforementioned
masculine voice.
Arthur, do-do-oh, Arthur,
do you still-still love me, after
And a smacking sound tells the
wide, wide world that Arthur does.
The 'Humph!" of a man in overalls
as his pipe-and-music reverie is dis
turbed, and the Gee, listen to the
damn iJtts!' of rounder on the same
bench, follow.
A few minutes later, as a drawing
bass voice asks, "Lucindy, reckon IL
putty nigh de time us two been gittin'
married. amt it, honey?" an urchin
scampering toward the pavilion calls
the parks attention to his discovery.
Eth, dere's big black coon maxim
love to yeller gal back dere!''
Whatever the comments of the out
side world, they seem to have no ef-
feet on the lovers. They are usually
as oblivious to them as a well-dressed
couple, who had come from a private
mouse bordering the square, were to an
old woman who dropped beside them

His grandson, James Rogers, was
one of the first settlers in this coun-
try.
Thomas Rogers and his son, Jo-
seph, came over in the Mayfiower, but
Thomas died soon after his arrival.
His other children came later, and all
settled in Plymouth. Another immi-
grant was George Rogers, who came
from Ireland. 1t is recorded of an
other George Rogers that he was
born on the sea and rocked in a tor
toise-shell cradle"
The fact that James Rogers. the i'm
migrant, was chosen to fill many
important positions in Connecticut,
where he lived shows the estimation
in which he was held by the COM
munity. He was deputy to the Court
of Elections and representative to the
General Court seven times within
about as many years. Gov. Win
throp showed his esteem for him in
various ways. For many years prior
to 1866 James Rogers carried on by
