hammered itself into her mind. By the caiolery

THAT is true. Do not, then, advise you, at

A sudden wave of courage swept over her.
She ceased to tremble though the samurai was
fierce and menacing. There sprang into her eyes
light Of defiance.
"You have reminded me- my father, that

let me tell you that l, too, am conscious of pos.

AS she spoke she had backed slowly across
the room, away from her father, as though re-

Useful Hints.

Onion water applied with a soft
brush will keep flies off gilt frames.
Old putty on window-frames may
be removed by passing a red-hot
poker slowly over it.
Velvet that has become crushed
may be restored by placing the linen
side of the dress over a basin of hot
water.
Stews of any kind OF meat should
merely bubble at the sides of the
kettle and never really boil. This
will make all the difference between
tough and tender meat.
