rtble days following discovery of the
fact that her kindly. gentle father, aft
or a lifetime of high e%ndeavor, had left
her without the provision she knew
he always intended to make.
Dear Mrs. Missioner" cried Elinor,
Fastening toward the widow as she
read affection and complete belief in
her c~ountenance. you have done
many lovely things for me, but this Is
quito the dearest! 1t seems hard even
to picture you In such a place, and
the reality"
You poor child" exclaimed Mrs.
Missioner, hardly controlling her
voice. What about yourself? If it
is distressing t me to come here, it
is TERRIBLE for you to be here. How
can you stand it?"
"One learns to stand many things"
she answered. when fate commands;
yet II anyone had told me a few weeks
ago that l could SO much as retain my
reason in a place like this! Now that
you are here, 1T seems far easier. Oh,
but 1t is good of you to comet"
The widow took the girls hands in
her own and patted them softly as
she whispered words of encourage
ment. She could not trust her voice
to speak for the first few mo-
ments. AS she looked at Elinor's slen.
der grace and the deathless honesty
in her soft, gray eyes, the horror Of
the girls situation came home to her
with redoubled force. 1t was by a
mighty effort, and by that alone, that
she prevented herself from sweeping
the girl into her arms and making q

We'll, SIR" said the old gentleman.
II presume you have come to ask me
for my daughters hand?"
Yes, sir, that would be my ideal
birthday present"
And do you realize the responsible
ties of married life; what o will

Indeed. SIR" Interrupted the YOUTH"
you need have no fears with regard
to Janet's future. I have a good posi-
ton in my fathers bank. and my
prospects are excellent-in fact, I
am to be made a director Of the inst1-
tuition in a YER short time"
Very good. But that vas not ex-
actly the matter l intended to refer
to. Have you-have you ever looked
over Janet's mother carefully"
The young man was puzzled, and no
showed 1t.
How do you like my wife7"

"Oh, that's all right, then. Well, sir.

# Your Food Fails to Sustain You
Change.

One sort of diet may make a person
Respondent, depressed and blue and a
change to the kind of food the body
demands will change the whole thing.
A young woman from Phila. says:
For several years 1 kept in a run
down, miserable sort of condition, was
depressed and apprehensive Of trouble.
! lost flesh in a distressing way and
seemed in a perpetual sort Of dreamy
nightmare. No one serious disease
showed, but the '%all-over' sickness was
enough.
Finally, between the doctor and ia
ther, 1 was put on Grape-Nuts and
cream, as it was decided I must have a
nourishing food that the body could
make use of.
"The wonderful change that came
over me was not, like Jonah's gourd,
the growth of a single night, yet it
came with a rapidity that astonished
me.
During the first week I gained in
weight, my spirits improved, and the
world began to look brighter and more
worth while.
"And this has continued steadily, till
now, after the use Of Grape-Nuts for
only a few weeks, I am perfectly well,
feel splendidly, take a lively interest in
everything, and am a changed person

or mani"
Are you sure this is wise, Doris? p
inquired Sands gravely. AS he stood
beside her, 1t was difficult to control
the impulse to pour out before her the
edoration he felt at sight Of her g
loveliness. She had never seemed
more beautiful thar When she was
moved by sympathy for the girl who
at that moment, doubtless, was won
dering If she had forsaken her.
Wise or not" returned the widow,
Il shall do it. Something tells me
she Is in need of sympathy this very
day. Why, Bruxton, how do we know
what effect this dreadful incarcera-
ton might have upon her? 1t may
warp her entire nature; 1t may wreck
her health. Please do not try to dis
suade me. l have made up my mind
to see her. and | shall go there at
once"
1t was a short dash for the auto up
Broadway, up Centre Street to the
Tombs, and it was with little difficulty
that Sands obtained for Mrs. Mission
er permission to see the prisoner.
Elinor came around the corner of
the corridor with more animation In
her step than it had shown in many
a day. She had hardly been able to
believe her eyes on reading Mrs. Mis-
s1oner's name on the card thrust
through the grating Of her cell. Long
ago she had made up her mind that
the chain Of circumstances, or perhaps
an enemy, had sown in her kind
friends mind suspicion that she was
guilty. AS the days rolled OF and she re-
ceived no word from Mrs. Missioner,
the conviction grew upon her. Even
this very day she had given up the
hope Of rehabilitating herself In the
eyes of her employer. Not that 1t was
an employer she mourned in loss Of
Mrs. M1ssioner's confidence. The
rich widow was her friend; had been
her family's friend, and had been the
first to offer her a refuge in the ter

after another, patiently repeating per
sistent inquiries as to What a Dc
come OF the veteran cuI1o dealer.
Blank stares and equally blank an
swers were the result until Britt, IN q
tiny tobacco shop that was the center
OF all the old-times places uddled to-
gether for protection against the en-
croachment of progress, unearthed q
memory i%ncarnate in a man., VINO,
Fitch said, might have been the win
brother of the amateur alchemist-
"Yes," said the man, Il remember
him, and It's a funny thing to me that
anybody who aver saw him could ever
forget him. He was the queerest little
old duck | ever ran
Britt thought if anyone could be
queerer than the ancient tobacconlst
he would have to step out OF a page
of Dickens.
The incarnate memoir recalled ina
the curio dealer had been taken away
a week or two before his shop was
torn down to clear the ground for he
foundation work of the great sky
scraper. No, he didn't go away. He
was taken away.
Anything wrong with him?" asked
Britt.
We'll, not exactly what you might
call wrong, SO to speak," %quavered the
old tobacco merchant. Il wouldn't
go so far as to say there was anything
you might exactly call wrong with
him, but neither would I undertake to
tell you that he was altogether what
you might call right" and he touched
his forehead significantly.
"Oh!" said Britt, Wards Or Ran
dall's?"
Huh" said the old tobacconist. Il
don't know what you mean"
Why" said the detective, what l
is did they taxi him to the Asy-
lum or to the Workhouse?"
81 reckon 1t wouldn't IA been any
use to AXE him to the Workhouse,"
said the tobacco dealer, because. so
far as | know, he never done no work
In all his life, and he was too old a
dog to learn the habit by that time.
No, I guess they took him to the other
place; out what do you want to know
for? Are you missing heirs?"
Britt and Fitch laughed.
NO" he said, my friend here just
wan to brush up IN old acquaint-
ance." When the two had bought
enough cigars to recall family the
dreams Of prosperity that had in
spired the old mans youth. they
strolled to the Twenty-third street
corner, where they jumped aboard a

Old Friends.
Bruxton Sands was as genuinely as
tonished as a man of deliberateness
could be when a clerk entered the
private room Of his Office suite in a
Bowling Green skyscraper and told
him a lady wished to see him. He was
about to instruct the clerk to ask for
the lady's card when. glancing over
the youths head, he glimpsed a gol-

vading way that long ago had pene-
trated to the very core Of the million
aire's inner consciousness. That smile
illuminated Sands somewhat gloomy
sanctuary. He welcomed Mrs. Mis-
sioner to q comfortable chair beside
his broad desk, swept aside the heap
OF formidable papers with great gold
seals and f%iuttering legal ribbons, and
leaned back In his chair quite cont6ht
to wait a century for his visitor to
speak again, provided her smile should
continue to beam upon him.

The popular impression as to the APP

performers and actors in general is
that it is rubbed ON the face and hands
of the player from cork whose end IS

impression is, however Incorrect The
burnt cork used by MINISTRIES and
others is the product Of the theatrical

cosmetic or pigment employed by the
profession.

manner. The cOrks are placed in three

with holes punched in their sides and

corks. and they they are fired. When
the corks have been properly charrcd
they are placed in muslin sacks, which

When all the charred corks have
been worked through the sacks into
