"THEY ARE NOT LOST"

The look of sympathy, the gentle word,
Spoken so low that only angels heard;
The secret act of pure self-sacrif1ce.
Unseen by men, but marked by angels
eyes,
These are not lost.
The happy dreams that gIaddened all
our youth,
When dreams had less of self and more
of truth:
The childhoods faith, so tranquil and
so sweet,
Which sat like Mary at the Masters
feet,
These are not lost.
The kindly plan devised for others
good,
So seldom guessed. so little under
stood,
The quiet, steadfast love that strove
to win
Some wanderer from the ways of sin,
These are not lost.
Not lost. o Lord! for in Thy city
Our eyes shall see the past by clearer
light,
And things long hidden from our gaze
below
Thou will reveal; and we shall surely
know
These are not lost.
Richard Metcalf, in New York Trib-
une.

together anywhere my wife asks me
to hook her waist. It's no job for d
man. I'd rather saw half a cord
of wood any day.
In the first place. I never get the
hooks into the corresponding eyes. AZ
ter 1 think I've got 'em all fastened,
1 invariably find that there is one hook
at the top or bottom for which there
is no eye or one eye for which there
is no hook. Then there is the neck
band. 1t has three or four fasteners
at least. and you must have deft
fingers to make them connect.
Now, suppose our shirts were fast
ened down the back with hooks and
eyes, what would be the situation .?
Why we wouldn't stand it; not a min
ute. Nobody could hire men to wear
shirts built that way. no matter if a
dozen Harry Lehrs decreed that it was
the proper caper.
But woman will accept any old
garment, no matter how constructed,
without murmur, if it's the latest
In fact. she won't have anything else.
Look at the way shirt waist sleeves
are made now. The bulge used to be

crescences, so that a woman of ordi-
nary build required two seats in car.
Now the bulge is near the wrist and

move will be to have balloons at the
elbows.

cause Mrs. Dash is such an old patron.
I'll never get my money back on them,
as it is, I'm afraid.
And after the lady's maid has gone
out with her poor s. bill licked into
the palm of her cotton glove, See
what a pretty hat I've got for you"
the saleswoman calls to the girl in
red. THE lace is real thread, and
the ostrich plumes-well, that hat cost
Paris, too, you can see by the label
in the crown. AS you're right here,
and rather than hold it-although
there's a great demand for beautiful
hats like this-we can't get hold of
'em fast enough-Tl let it go for
let me see-well, SIS. There! If you
don't snap up a bargain like that
why it wouldn't suit you better if
you'd stepped into a Fifth avenue store
and ordered it yourself"
"Awfully pretty!' CALCULATED Max,
admiringly and the girl in red sue
cumbs to their united attack. When
she leaves the shop she is the owner
not only of the white lace hat but of
a violet crepe de chine dress, a shep-
herds plaid walking suit and a dove
colored taffeta underskirt shot with
blue, all black lace insertion down the
front.
And so the merry trade in cast-off
clothing goes on. That these middle
men perform a function useful to the
public is proved by the volume of their
business. In other sections of the city,
particularly on the lower East Side,
numbers of such shops flourish, the
goods they handle being cheaper and
shabbier and dirtier, and their clients
of a commoner class socially, than
those of the uptown establishments.

SHORT KIRTED GIRL
AND SALE OF SHOES

A shoe retailer tells the writer, says
the Shoe Retailer, that women's fash
ionable short skirts make women very
much more watchful of their shoes. A
woman who cares anything at all for
her dress has to look sharply after
her footwear. The short-skirted girl
of a year ago is not in it at all with
the short-skirted girl of the present
season. The swing-clear skirt no more
resembles the short skirt of a few
years ago than the dress of to-day re-
sembles the dress of the tailor-made
period. One was all severity. The
other is all grace. One made a woman
angular and awkward and masculine
The other adds feminine touch even
to the homeliest figure. The skirts of
this season, those that are made on
the new art lines, all swing clear. If
they touch they are of the round
length-that is, the length which just
touches the floor all the way round
making the shoes a prominent feature
of the costume. All of which augurs
we'll for the shoe business.

But don't you have to have a spec

yes, these lady-slippers are as easy
to grow as a geranium.'
This was where my friend nearly
lost his reputation. He was a sim
pie-hearted man who had early fallen
into a way of telling the truth with
out thinking, and found the habit hard
to break after attaining the age of
sophistication. He came near shatter-
ing the halo of romance with which
these ladies had invested the magic

of these regal flowers at least. that

HER FIRST LESSON.

The small, anxious woman, says the
New York Press. who was keeping the
boarding house suspected that he was
a crank the moment she saw him.
What first excited her suspicion was
the fact that, although he was very
thin, he habitually wore a frock coat.
There is something about a thin man
in a frock coat that invariably excites
the distrust of his fellow men. She was
not surprised when this boarder came
to her with the announcement that he
was going to leave.
I'm sorry" she answered. Il have
done my best to make it comfortable"
You have, indeed. | have been pro-
foundry impressed by your solicitude
for my well being, and / assure YOU
that as I journey onward through life,
perhaps never to encounter this board
ing house again. il will be sweetly re-
freshing to recall that some time and
somewhere l have known a landlady
who gave a thought to her boarders
other than to keep tab on when the
board bill came due"
The landlady blushed.
If you feel that way about IT," she
said. Il don't see why you are going
to leave u.s.
Il can't stand suspense" was the
answer. Il am becoming attached 20

ORCHIDS THAT
ARE HOME GROWN.

If there is any popular fancy. that

Country Life in America, the amiable

III little ten-ty-twelve greenhouse.
AS his wife was too much of an in
valid to look after the greenhouse my
friend watered his plants every morn
ing and adjusted the ventilators be-
fore he caught the 1853 express for
the big city. and at night he came
home to see what had happened.
Usually no great disaster had be-
fallen. And In February If you were
lucky enough TO be invited into his
snug little greenhouse, while a VIM
ter storm ragged outside, you would
be likely 10 find some gorgeous cat
tleyas, with perhaps twenty flowers
on a plant and each flower fully eight
or nine inches across.
You should have heard the ladies'
eXclaim. How do you grow these
lovely orchids, Mr.. -?"

But l don't see why you will have

You are not experienced in running

ITS true that I have been engaged
in this business only a short time. but
l don't see how you found it out I
thought l was providing exceedingly
good accommodations.
Yes. The excellence of the estab-
lishment in all its branches was What
first excited my suspicion. Then 1 re-
solved to put you to the test | knew
that l could determine with absolute
accuracy whether you were a novice

siasm. You will remember that this
morning l said something at breakfast

Yes. I gave the cook good talk.
ing to about it. 1 am sure it will not
occur again.
The thin boarder smiled indulgentlv
1T is too bad he commented, that
this sOlicitude, which does you so much
credit should have been the means of
my detecting your secret. Had you
been old in the business when Won
a
long time to settle, you would have
cast an icy look around the table and
said that it reminded you of some peo-
pie. That is a form of repartee thai
was invented shortly after Adam anc
Eve left the Garden of Eden to look
for other accommodations, and no one
but a beginner would have let the
opening pass. l am sorry, but l prefer
the peace of mind that comes from
settled policy of basking in the sun
shine of luxury only to see it day by
day obscured by the shadow of mer-
cepary economy. This evening 1 will
pay you the $3.50 that I owe you, and
then we will part"
A long, hard line that had never
been there before came into the face OF
the little landlady. She had taken her
first lesson in the eternal truth that
the more one tries to please the less
one is likely to succeed.
