WOMEN LOSE THEIR YOUTH.

An observing woman at an annual picnic in England noticed that the women of the working classes" in attendance were old at B, and few of these women who had reached that age had their own teeth. With- out teeth the health cannot be good, and this may have soMcthing to do with the old look on the faces of the women, which makes it good argu- ment in favor of compulsory dentis- try in the schools.

HEP MOORE'S COURTSHIP
By W. J. Lamp,on

Jep Moore was in love with the on his face, which was about the plainest that ever a man stuck into handkerchief. But he was not to the manner born, and, although he feared no man, he had been mortally afraid of women as far back as he could re- member.
 That was the reason he had been courting Molle Stewart for nearly two years and had arrived nowhere much But girl. and pretty o'<e at that, won't stand for everlasting procrastination, whatever she may think of the man, and Jep began to observe that Mollie was having more gentlemen company than he liked to see around so often. He didn't dare say anything, but he proposed to do something, and that immediately. Which was why he hitched his horse at her gate that evening and pounded up the walk to the porch where she sat all alone waiting for him. He had informed her by tele- phone that he was due to arrive at that hour, and there he was, prompt. It was the first time. he had ever been so definite, and Molly was feel ing hopeful She admired Jep. not because he was beautiful, but be- cause he was good. Some girls don't think that way about men, but Mollie | Stewart had sense,
 She welcomed Jep cheerfully and told him to come in and take chair Jep had his courage screwed up till he was feeling frisky, and he de clined the chair. An empty ham mock swung across the porch-end and he thought he would try that. He had seen pictures of summer girls and | young men and hammocks, but he had never tried one. This seemed to be the very time. so into 1t he went
 Mollie didn't laugh when he tum bled out of 1t backward. She helped him to his feet and Jep's courage al oozed away. He sat down in chafl as meek as Moses. Mollie changed | the subject.
 Jep spoke of the weather. Molli'

 weather as she was in telephones IBut Jep was uneasy.

 of course can't. I couldn't be the moon, could I?"
 You could be the moon as easy as I could be the sun, couldn't you?" T suppose so."
 Well, just let's s'pose we was them; then what?"
 Molle studied a moment and the feminine in her asserted itself.
 "Well, suppose, Jep." she said. laughing lightly, eff was the moon and you were the sun I'd go away when you come"
 Jep hadn't thought where the con- versation would lead, and he was wholly upset by her answer. He sat speeches..
 But I'm not the moon, Jep," she added quickly, because you see I didn't go away when you come"
 Jep gulped and pulled himself to- gether. He got up and came over to her side.
 "Dern the sun and the moon, Mol lie" he said, hitching his neck up through his collar so he could get more air; "I didn't come over here to talk astronomy. What I come fer was to know why the dickens you don't marry mel"
 Mollie was not agitated. It was not her first proposal, though it was different She looked up at him and smiled. Jep began to feel wobbly in the knees.

 This sounded like Sunday school talk, and Jep felt the seriousness of it. death,

Upon the houseless and unguarded

So hath my soul sought thine through
devious ways, -
Through proud resistances and scorn ex-
pressed,
Under light laughter. sober-minded dir

And cool-browed insult and neet-footed
Jest.
For I did see with eyes that looked
through mist
Ever some brightness In the night and

Ever did have some voice that well I

Was thine above the jargon of the way.
And now. that do stand before thy
know that have run and won the
