How to Strop a Razor,

LEAD pipe will keep your razor
sharp" contided the garrulous barber.
"Get short piece of the smallest,
softest lead pipe your plumber has in
stock and keep it handy when you are
stropping the razor The scheme is to
rub the strop with the pipe. 1t works
best with plain leather strop. Apply
the pipe, just as you would strop the
razor, to the unfinished side of the
leather. Strop your razor on that side,
wind up with few passes on the
finished side of the strop, and you
will have first class edge on the
tool. | never took the trouble to get a
scientific explanation Of the virtues of
lead pipe as an aid to whetting, but it
IS all to the good in that respect

Her Face of
Youth.
By WILLIAM STANHOPE
Copyrighted, 1909, by Associated
Literary Press.

"The Dead sea fruit of ashes, that is
all life has meant for me. I wonder"-
But here Mrs. Ellery st. John drew
herself up with a start. "Whatr' she
thought. Talking to myself like an
old woman! Really 1 must not be sc
much alone"
Being alone at all was new to Mrs
st. John. She had always been on the
qui vive from her brilliant girlhood
through the ten years of her married
life and nearly ten of her widowhood
ind the restlessness told on her.
Fine lines about the eyes and mouth
told Of the nerve destroying pace Of a
modern woman of fashion. Margaret
st. John seemed possessed with a spir
it of unrest and had forgotten how tC
relax.
This year she seemed too listless to
plan her usual spring trip and was
staying in town. But she must be
amused. She turned from the desk
where a bundle of old letters had given
a melancholy drift to her thoughts
and took up one Of the club calendars
All, there was miniature day at the
Womens club. That looked promis.
ing. can exhibition Of old miniatures
would certainly be amusing. These OBJ
solete things would afford more than
a passing smile, and there was sure
to be good music. Mrs. st. John lis
tened not only with her ears, but with
her heart, to a fine voice.
She was followed by envious chances
as she entered. Her perfect gown
with the delicate bits Of old lace, was
worn well. The women Of the club
thronged about her, each with some
special bit Of gossip, the ambitious
pushing ones on the edge, glad of a
smile or bow that held out hopes for
social advancement.
AS the president took her place they
settled into their seats to listen to the
brief program. A brilliant harp, piano

SuIIivan's Best Compliment.

When Sir Arthur Sullivan of Gilbert
and Sullivan fame was travelling in the
western states a man rushed up to
him and, grasping his hand. said: "Say
by golly, I'm mighty glad to meet you
When heard you was a-comin'
couldn't wait hardly. But, say, you
amt very big, are you? How much
do you weight"
"About $50 pounds" answered the
astonished composer.
'Then how on earth did you come
to knock out Ryan"
II never knocked out any Ryan.
What do you mean"
"Ain't you John L. Sullivan"
"No, I'm Arthur Sullivan"
The man stood dazed for a few min
utes, and then a smile spread over his
rough features. "Are you the Teller
what put 'Pinafore' together? Well,
then, Pm mighty glad to meet you just
the same'
Sir Arthur counted this as one Of his
greatest compliments. - Chicago Rec

sweet bars on the piano, came a voice
so pure, so rich, SO clear, that an utter

Mrs. st. John gave the singer hel

in fact, never cared who these people
were who amused her, but some note
in that girls pure voice stirred hel
profoundly. Once long ago a voice
strangely like this had called to hel

wise to permit any wandering from
prearranged plans.

Mrs St. John reused herself at the
sound Of soft clapping Of gloved hands.
She did not applaud.
Another number or two Of inStru-

hum of conversation everywhere as
the teacups were handed about. Mrs.
St. John moved with the rest toward
the miniature exhibit. Delighted little
peals Of laughter told of the oddities
In these old pictures of the past that
the wave of fashion had left stranded.
Mrs. st. John glanced over them In
her bored way. Really, except for
that solo, it was scarcely worth the
trouble Of coming, she thought. Then
suddenly, face to face. her youth
looked at her. It was her own pic

INDOOR GARDENING.
How to Raise Tender Plants From
Seeds In the House.

0SSOS IHS I1OuSes
In planting seeds of tender ANIMALS
In the house, shallow boxes, called
flats, are required. These should not
be over three inches deep, and for ten
der greenhouse plants two inches is
enough. These may be Of any con.
venient size, but should not be too
wide to sit on the window sill, unless
a shelf extends beneath the window
sill on which they can rest. 1t is bet.
ter, too, that they be small enough to
accommodate but one kind Of seed.
For all fine seeds a soil composed OF
leaf mold and fine, sharp sand should
be used. This should be sifted and
pressed down evenly. The soil should
be moist when used, not wet or dry.
Fine seed, like the Rex begonia, prim.
rose, calceolaria and the like, should
be merely sifted evenly over the sur,
face of the soil and pressed down into
the soil with a piece of smooth board
The fats before filling with earth
should have a few small holes bored
in the bottom and these covered with
bits of glass to prevent the soil wash
ing into the holes.
After the fine seeds have been sown
the flats should be set in pan of tepid
water until they have absorbed suff-
cient moisture to look dark, but not
wet on top. They should then be tilt.
ed on the edge and all surplus water
drained off, the fiat covered with glass
and sheet Of white paper and set
where they can have a regular heat
from beneath If possible
Coarser seeds should have a light
covering of sicted sand pressed dcwl:
over them, and still larger seeds should
be sowed in drills an eighth Of an inch
deeD and the displaced soil drawn back
over them and pressed down.

The president slipped her arm around
her, for she looked as If she would

anterOom. Here, GEAR" she said: 81
will send her to you," and asked one
of the ladies to see that Miss Della
field came to them at once.
When the door opened and the young
girl entered the president left them.
Mrs. st. John reached out her hands
to this girl. ''Where did you get that
old miniature" asked she. 1T is so
interesting. Whose picture is it?"
"Oh, the picture was fathers! It
was so beautiful I offered it to the
ladies for the exhibit. I do not know
whose it isl
"Tell me Of yourself" the worldly
woman said as her gaze searched the
face Of the girl, whom she had drawn
beside her on the divan.
ooh. have been singing at the clubs
this winter-just the smaller ones at
first, you know I was very fortunate
to have the opportunity of this after
hOon"
"But your childhood" eagerly asked
Mrs. st. John-"your father, your
mother"'
Bit by bit Mrs. st. John got the
whole story. Margaret was the daugh-
ter Of the lover of her youth, Elwood
Delafield, who had married an Italian
woman while studying abroad. Both
parents were dead, Margaret told her,
and the friends Of her father in the
American colony in Rome had advised
her to come to America, where there
were many opportunities to add to her
slender income.
Mrs. st. John said impulsively to
Margaret: "Come home with me, dear.
1 knew your father very we'll, and 1
must know his daughter too."
At dinner she watched the girl ref1ec-
lively. Every tone in her voice was
full Of memories. Long they talked
that evening in Mrs. st. Johns luxuri-
GUS room. "Stay with me, dear. I am
a lonely woman. We will see about
cultivating that glorious voice." And
she held her in her arms and kissed
her good night.
Margaret Dclafeld went away full
of delightful dreams of rosy future.
How could people say Mrs. st. John
was cold and hauGhty? Why, she was
as sweet and tender rs mother Far
into the night Mrs. st. John unused
looking ut the pictured face.
So he had kept it all these years, and
the girl was called Margaret. She
would keep her for her very own, and
every act of kindness would be as a
recompense for all she had denied her
self. She should have the best mas
tiers, but there would be no more sing
ing at the clubs. Margaret was for
her.
1t was a nine days wonder. "Just a
sudden fancy" said some Of her wo
men friends. while others said, 'NIrs
st. John looks like woman who had
an interest in life for the first time
since l have known her" She had an
interest indeed. 1t was to sit in the
dim twilight and listen to Margaret
sing. Then she asked always for the
old songs, the songs of her girlhood.
when Margaret Delafield's father had
called to her heart, but fate forbade
her answering.
