TEN MINUTES I'm
LAND OF STORIES
HER eleventh HOUR.
BY r. S. Phillips.

Alix looked longingly at the
toothsome pastries in the window
Often had she breakfasted and
dined happily In the fragrant table
strewn space beyond the pastries
Then-she had a good position
and Jim Preston's love, unspoken
only because she held it in check
Now-her purse contained
cents. she had nothing to do, and
stood like a hungry Peri, barricad
ed out OF the Paradise in which she
had dined often with Jim-Jim
whom she loved so utterly but had
left no word for when change OF
fortune necessitated cheaper quar-
ters.
"Alix."
She turned slowly and looked in.
to Jim's eyes, questioning. re-
proachful. trimming, as of old, with
his unspoken love.
"Why, Jim Preston."
The words came CALAMITY to her
lips, and she put out her hand
bravely. A drowning man clutch
ing at a straw could not have
seized the pretty fingers more
eagerly.
Come in and have breakfast
with me- Oh. you've got to an
swer no end of questions. I've
nearly disrupted Manhattan to find
you"
In another moment she was seat
ed at the familiar table.
why did you run away?'
Alix's eyes filled slowly beneath
long, downcast lashes. The firm
went to the wall, and-I would
have written you as soon as-it
was all right again. she finished
lamely.
."And you thought THAT would
make any difference? with re-
proaehful tenderness. But now

The table and dishes whirled I'M
steadily, but the girls voice came

His last day! How final II
sounded.
Alix lifted her coffee cup gaily
ITO your triumphal celebration!
she said, forcing laughter into her
eyes.
And yours" added Jim, raising
his cup.
by the way, there's phone
here-and it's me to phone. Elk

Dreamily she watched him, bit
terly realizing that heart hunger
could effectually still the other
kind. Dear, dear Jim! How sweet

binding tears, SO sternly banished
came TO her eyes.
We'll, it's all right" Jim's
voice, very near, brought her back

Here's a peculiar looking weapon
of American invention that may
play part In the next war. 1t Is
adapted especially to cavalry use,
but could be used by foot soldiers
In close quarters.

Jim's eyes met hers squarely,
adoringly.
"Why-Oh, JIM" 1t was the
love and longing of months that
echoed in those few words.
Then you do love me? Ye

Certainty Of Belief.

A recent convert when asked what
determined him to become a Catholic
replied: ",rhc certainty Of Catholics.
They not only believe that their
Church is right, and the only one that
is right but they know it and feel 1t
in their blood and marrow; they have
faith. I got talking religion the other
day with bricklayer who was work.
ing for me, and asked him: Are you
so dead sure that the Catholic religion
is true and just as Christ made it?'
Sure he exclaimed as he put brick
in place and travelled it with mortar.
I am as sure of it as that this brick will
never come out Then, laying another
brick, he added: I'm surer. Man lays
bricks; God Himself laid Peters Rock!'
That was the final impulse that sent
me to seek instruction. I wanted to
be sure"

Lot Us Smile.

The thing that goes the farthcst to-
ward making life worth while,
That costs the least and does the most.
is just a pleasant smile,
The smile that bubbles from a heart
that loves it's felow-men
Will drive away the cloud of gloom
and coax the sun again.
It's full of worth and goodness, too,
with manly kindness blent-
It's worth million dollars, and
doesn't cost a cent.
There is no room for sadness when
we see a CHEEKY smile,
1t always has the same good look
it's never out Of style
1t nerves us on to try again when
failure makes lis blue;
The dimples of encouragement are
good for me and you.
1t pays a higher interest for it is mere
It's worth a million dollars and
doesn't cost cent.
A smile comes very easy-you can
wrinkle up with cheer
A hundred times before you can
squeeze out soggy tear.
1t ripples out, moreover, to the heart
strings that will tug,
And always leaves an echo that is
very like hug.
So smile away. Folks understand what
by a smile is meant
It's worth a million dollars and
doesn't cost a cent.
