HOLIDAY THoUGHTFULNESs.

For several years an effort has
been made to lessen the extra pressure
Of work which during the holiday sea-
son falls on the salespeople in shops,
says Margaret E.. Sangster in the
Woman's Home Companion; o those
who deliver goods, on the postofflce
employees and in the express offices
the country through. Never have I
seen young women s. tired, haggard
n dragged out as are those who
serve the public in the weeks pre-
ceding Christmas. The hours at that
time are much longer than usual, and
the endeavor is to meet the demands
of anxious and hurried customers who
do not know what they want, and are
bewildered amid the variety of tempt
ing articles displayed.
physically n mentally, the clerks,
messengers cashiers and every N
concerned in mercantile pursuits in he
holiday shopping season are worn to
shreds. Much of their fatigue might
be prevented were buyers considerate,
and If the caution came too late for
this year, will not those who need it
make a note for another season?
Books and packages sent by mail and
gifts transmitted by express as well

tcontinued From Yesterday

The mans cry as he struck the water
alarmed the crowd and caused a mo-
mentary stampede, in which Cherry
and Boyd were thrust shoreward, but
the confusion quickly subsidized, as an
officer flung a heaving-line to the gasp
ing creature beneath. A moment later
the hatless spy was dragged to the
dock, indignant and sputtering.

gized, profusely. ut was all my fault.
The plank was steep, and I was forced
off my feet. Whenever I'm followed

The man ceased cursing to dart a
sharp glance at him, but he was still
too unnamed by his cold immersion to
do more than chatter angrily. In the
hubbub Emerson led his companion out
into the street, where she beheld him
shaking with suppressed laughter.
Boyd" she cried, in a shocked voice,
then it was -you-you might have
killed him, Suppose his head had
struck a timber,"
Yes, thai would have been too bad!'
he declared; then, at the sight of her
face, his chuckle changed to a wolfish
snarl. He'll know enough to keep
away from me hereafter. l won't play
with him the next time
DON'T Don't! 1 never saw YOU look
so. Why, it might have been murder!"
"Well?" He stared at her curiously.
IL didn't think it of you. She
shuddered weakly. but he only shrugged
his shoulders and said, with a f1nality

N SHOE BUCKLES.


Cut steel and rhinestone predomi-
nate in the shoe buckle for decorating
the evening slipper this season. In the
cut steel, which has a very refined ap-
p~earance, the designs are very beauti-
full. The buckles made of this ma
terial seem to be the leading ones.
They are made oblong and large,
and though this is actually the choice
among the metals. there are other sizes
and other metals still available, for
though It is quite, new, it does not ex-
clude any of the others that with some
are still popular.
Rhinestone buckles are favored next
to steel, and there is a wide variety
of these from which to make a choice.
Small and large ornaments, square
and round ornaments, oblong n star
shaped ornaments-in fact, in the
rhinestone one can get an ornament
in almost any shape zone desires.

but I imagine that no one really cares
for me. What makes me feel that way?

and deeply in love with a girl II. l

The reason 1 have not told her that

someone else, as she has told a friend
of mine SO, and whenever j talk to
her she has mentioned his name, on
more than one occasion.
Now. dear Miss Doom, that person II
now out OF the city and may not return
In a year or two. He Is also a friend
of mine, but has never mentioned to me
that he loves tho girl.
How should I act to win her love?
Should 1 ask her to choose US.
although I do not n that the other
person cares for her? Thanking you for
your answer, w. A.
Ask the young woman whether she
loves you or II she is in owe with
someone else. 1T is a matter entirely
