PROM S.

If all our promises were kept,
What busy people We should be!
How many who have sighed % wept
Might have in sweet contentment slept
And bravely clung TO glee?
If all the promises We make
We're made with fair good will,
How many hearts would cease to ache,
How many friendly ties that break
Would bind us fairly still!
If promises were meant to be
Fulfilled without regret,
What gladness We should hold III fee.
We promise things so easily,
SO readily forget.

CHAPTER XIV (continued)

''You doan't get no peace, except
in Christ, Zur," sal Mrs Pethick,
who was a class-leader among the
Bible Christians.
Leicester looked al the danes
kindly face and wondered Had this
simple, homely, kindly-faCed woman
learned any secret unknown to him?
To say the least, the question in
terested him.
Look here" he said, you don't

it's of no use speaking to me
at all urless you do speak quite

Why, when I'm tempted to do
wrong, to think of Christ do elp me-.
Whenever | d have bad wicked
thoughts, | d jist think Of Him, and
they do go, zur. For zure they do. D."
And He gives you peace, does
He?" said Leicester, half mockingly,
half seriously.

The mocking laugh left Leicester's
lips as she spoke; it was impossible
to doubt what she satd,

He sat down close by the roaring
wood fire, and wondered. Why
should this simple woman's faith
be denied to him? He picked up
the paper she had offered him; it
was the first he had seen since he
left Taviton The first words he
read were these: New candidate
selected for the Taviton division"
He read through the article with
strange interest 1t seemed to him
as though it spoke of some one
else. 1t referred to the unfortu-
nate selection the party had made
but stated that their mistake had
been rectified in the selection of a
local man, whose career was known
to all "As for the man who has |

seen him there. 1t is a sad pity
that a young man of such brilliant
parts should end his career in such
a way, but for our own part we
may say that We are well rid of
him. He brought no honor, or credit |
either to our party or our county !
and although some of his friends
speak of him as having suicidal ten

with a laugh. 1t was only the effu
sion of local journalist who did
not know the A b C of his trade,
but it amused him.

Are You a w. n. o?

If you, mere man, are in hammock
or cozy corner, or wandering by the
sad sea waves in the m onli sht this
summer, with a pair of cupid bow lips
invitingly handy, look before you leap.
If the proprietor of the lips lashes a
button with the awful words, Kiss
not" aimed at you, beat it,
She is a member of the w. II. o ,
and there is nothing doing.
The W. H. o., is the Worlds Health
Organization, which has serious OBJ
ject and a distressingly self-sacrificing
way of attaining it. Kiss not is the
motto, and its president, Mrs. |. Rech.
tin. has issued a call. Everybody is
invited to join, wear one OF those but
tons and sign pledge to kiss no one
on the lips. It's a serious problem for
the summer girl.
Invitation to Join.
In Mrs. Rechtin's invitation to join
she says:
kissing friends in greeting and
parting, kissing the baby by well-mean-
ing but infected relatives are the
means of spreading consumption faster
than any known scientific remedy can
check it. Why not stop kissing? 1t is
time honored custom. and one per-
son cannot stop it. 1t is only in unity
that sufficient strength can be gained
to convince the civilized world that
kissing is pernicious and unhealthful.
"A club has been organized for the
express purpose of disccuraging kiss
ing. The name of the club is the
Worlds Health organization. The ini-
tials are w. II. O. 1t has been esti-
mated that one person in every seven
is infected with consumption.
"Who offers to greet you with a
kiss? Is it an infected person?
Kiss Not Pledge.
Here is the pledge;
In order to encourage good health
and lessen the spread of consumption
| desire to join the World Health or
ganization and hereby pledge myself to
discourage the custom of kissing on
the lips whenever it is in my power"
Mrs. Rechtin has transferred her
handsome residence into an office for
the handling of the quantities of mail
that come to her as the head of the
anti-kissing society, Nearly 5000 men,
bers have been enrolled and branches
are being established in every large
city of the country.

Rechtin said

A little while later he left the
house. OF course it was all nonsense.
nevertheless the simple woman's talk
made him better. The storm had
now gone, and the moors were
bathed in evening sunlight. 1t was a
wonderful panorama which stretched
out before him. The moors, which
two hours before were dark and
forbidding, were now wondrous in
their beauty. And sunlight had done
il all. Sunlight.
All through the evening he sat
and thought. 1t seemed. from the
look in his eyes. that new purpose
had come into his life. The next day
he left his lonely lodgings. and
found his way back to London.
He went to a part of the city which
was far away from his old haunts.

ELEANOR RIvENBURGH.

The social event of the week was
the musicale given at the beautiful pa
latial home of Judge and Mrs. S. M.
Ballou, on Tuesday evening, which as
an artistic success will remain long in
the memory of those who were fortu-
nate enough to be present
The lovely spacious home was
thrown open and was blaze of lights
and palms and American Beaurs roses
banked round the grand piano and in
the alcoves, nesting amid soft maid
enhair ferns.
Over one hundred guests were pre-
sent and were seated within the ma
jestic drawing room and reception hall
which were thrown into one, and cas-
lily accommodated the large number
of guests. The broad lanais on all
sides between the columns were flank
ed with palms, and in every sense the
evening was one of beauty.
The audience was select and con
sisted of those who are appreciative
of music in it's highest standards, and
their enthusiasm was real and deeply
appreciative.
Mrs. Ballou presided at the piano
during the evening and was warmly
welcomed in her piano solo work
which, after years of retirement
came as a most wonderful surprise to
her friends, as none of her marvellous
technique or sympathy or poise has
been affected. Her touch was mag
netic, quick and full of color, and her
expression worthy of her reputation
which was made in the greater cities
of the old and new world
Mrs Allan White was in good voice

WOMAN DIES AT SEA
Passenger on Auguste Victoria
Sought Health Abroad.

Mrs Fritz Heyer. the wife of a wealthy
lumber dealer of Seattle, died in mid-At-
lantic while travelling TO this country from
Hamburg on the Hamburg-American liner
Kaiserin Auguste Victoria. She left New
York several months ago, accompanied by
her husband. She was in search of health
but her condition grew worse abroad. She
was anxious TO get to Seattle, and took
the kaiserin, the first available steam
ship. The saloon accommodations were
filed. and Mr. and Mrs. Heyer had TO
travel in the second cabin. Her husband
arranged to have the body embalmed and
will accompany it to Seattle to-day.
Myron T. Herrick, formerly Governor Of
Chic, also was a passenger on the Kaiserin.
He had been studying agricultural methods
in Europe, and was impressed with the
progress made in Germany with soil that
had been worked for seven centuries. He
said scientific farming was needed in this
country and that the United States should
study the German methods.
Justice Shi Wing Hsu. Of the high court
of Moukden, and Wen Chang Lo, secretary
of the Department of Justice, of Picking,
arrived on the kaiserin on their way TO
Washington to attend the international
prison congress. Major Won Livonius. mill
tary attache OF the German Embassy in
Washington, returned after his annual
leave.
