THE QUEST OF
THE RED SLIPPER,
Dickey Secured the Prize and Got
His Reward.
By cLAR,ssA MAck,E.

CCopyright. 1903. by American Press Asso-
ciation.l
An hour after dinner on that first
Saturday evening Dicky Ames left bis
comfortable chair in the smoking room
and made bis way to the great en-
trance hall. where the younger guests
were gathered about q roaring drift
wood fire.
He leaned against the high chimney
piece and from his shadowy corner
watched the light and sparkle Of Kitty
Austin's lovely dark face. Once her
soft eyes met his wistful glance, and
she threw him q smile that set his
heart to beating heavily.
kitty says she shall not dance un-
til her slipper has been found" laugh
ed Edith Bolter. with a mischievous
glance at Dicky.
He leaned forward and glanced down
at the hearth. where a little red slipper
rested lightly on the fender. The other
foot was hidden amid the soft flu6iness
Of Kitty's red skirts.
"Where did you lose 1t ?" asked Dicky
eagerly.
Kitty blushed. and a distressed look
came into her beautiful eyes. Dicky
remembered that he had met a similar
glance across the dinner table earlier
in the evening.
miss Austin won't tell" drawled
Chambers lazily. but It is a fact that
she has not stirred from her chimney
corner since dinner"
A laugh went around the circle, but
Dicky WINGED at the air Of quiet pos
session which Mark Chambers had as
sumed toward Kitty. He drew long
breath and turned away.
II will find the slipper" he said
coloring boyishly.
"And Kitty shall give you the frs'
dance" bantered Edith.
Dicky paused. II will be honored.
he said stif1y. "But the service is 1t.
own reward"
The men stirred uneasily. and
Chambers half rose from his seat

poetic nature recognizes poetry. The
pure see purity-not in themselves. in
others. But purity is rare. In the
throngs that have seen my picture
few have seen themselves reproduced
in it. Not recognizing themselves. they
have been drawn to 1t. They have
told the others.
Ready Wit.
Many good stories are told Of the
''Poet'' Craig, for so many years a
familiar figure on the London cricket
and football grounds. On one occa-
sion Craig began at the Oval. Gen

when some one interrupted:
"Craig. you said that at Legion last
week."
eyes, SIR" returned the unabashed
poet, "and l shall say 1t at Canter-
bury next week. The ground on
which the noble game is being played
before an assembly Of intelligent and
enlightened purchasers of my poetry
Is always my favorite ground for the
time being"
But Craig knew how to keep an i'm.
pertinent interrupter in his place
Once stout, red faced man broke in
on one Of his speeches with: Craig,
you're making lot of money out Of
fools. When are you going to set UP
a 'pub?'"
"When you come and live next door
to me. sirr' was the answer. and the
red faced man turned crimson.
Another man at the Oval once said:
"Now. Craig. tell us how much
you've made out Of bad poetry"
More, I venture to say, sir. than
| you've made out Of bad tnannerS!"--

MAKE THIS TEST.
How To Tell If Your Hair Is
Diseased.

Even if you have luxuriant head
of hair you may want to know whether
ii is in healthy condition or not. 80
per cent of the people need hair tonic.
Pull hair out of your head; if the
bulb at the end of the root is white
and shrunken, it proves that the hair
is diseased, and requires prompt treat
ment if its loss would be avoided. If
the bulb is pink and full the hair is
healthy.
We want every one whose hair re-
quires treatment to try Rexall "93''
Hair Tonic. We promise that it shall
not cost anything il it does not give
satisfactory results. 1t is designed to
overcome dandruff, relieve scalp irrita-
ton, to stimulate the hair roots, tighten
the hair already in the head, grow hair
and cure badness.
1t is because of what Rexall 1913"
Hair Tonic has done and our sincere
faith in its goodness that we want you
To try il at our risk. Two sizes, soc.
and 500. Sold only at our store =
