THE HAPPINESS OF MANKIND
POSSIBLE ONLY THROUGH LOVE

are crushed in one place, they spring
up in another. Aye, sometimes, they
may even be discovered in the dream

Love Is the Only Thing.
The highways of Universal Happiness
and Contentment must be made broad
and smooth and free from strife. Only
through the divine teachings of Brother
ly Love can such conditions be possible.
Through Brotherly Love, what a world
this might be! 1 can close my eyes and
bring a beautiful picture into my mind.
What Happiness! What Contentment! A
rational system of Life at last There
can be seen no poverty or riches. And
a master hand can find no place for Muir
der, Suicide Crime, or Avarice.
In a world of Brotherly Love such
things could not exist. Industry would
be common to all, removing the last ves-
tige of unequal riches and destitufion.
Thus, the incentive to Crime and Ava
rice would be dead. Murder and Suicide
would be forgotten in our barbaric past.
Universal Love displaces Murder; and
surely none would care to leave such a
life voluntarily.

Three-quarters of an hour slipped by.
then, piercing the silence Murrell heard
a shrill whistle; it was twice repeated;
he saw Bess go down to the landing
again. A half hour elapsed and a man
issued from the scattering growth of
bushes that screened the shore. The
newcomer crossed the clearing and en-
tered the cabin. He was a young fellow
Of twenty-fOur or twenty-five whose
bronzed face wore a reckless expression.

Murrell gave him a moment Of moody
regard.
Twice already I've named the day

out his jaw.

Murrell had expected to part with Hues
then and there and for all time. but
Hues possessed qualities which might
still be of use.
'Hues, you must start back across
Tennessee. Make it Sunday at midnight

voice sank to a whisper.

slowly.

THAT MAY BE MADE
Long Before the Holiday
Rush Begins.

The autumn season is none to soon TO
give thought to the preparation for
Christmas, particularly for those who
have to be early in planning novelties.
which they can make to sell, so that
they again may have the time to prepare
their own gifts. There are constantly
new avenues that are opening for those
who wish to remain in their own homes
and yet feel that they wish to make
pin money" or to increase their own
incomes by putting their spare time to
practical use.
Christmas gifts have the rare virtue of
not confning themselves to any given
season. They may extend over any month
of the year, so that the girl who is handy
may find it very lucrative thing to knit
or crochet sweaters. Every one possesses
sweater nowadays. 1t is an indis-
pensable garment for both summer and
winter, and those that are handsome
are always at a premium and there Is
constant demand for them, especially
II they are well made.
Another splendid thing is the making OF
Irish crochet novelties, l can hear a
chorus exclaim, But my eyesight does
not allow me to crochet fine lace con-
stantly." That is the reason would
suggest novelties" which do not take
long in the making. II a girl is clever
in creating something new, something
which will add a dainty touch to a cos
tune, she is sure OF financial success.
Irish Crochet Popular.
The making of Irish crochet belts and
buckles, to be worn with summer blouses,
covering hatpins and cuffpins, crocheting
bags to be worn with the white skirts
all are gifts which give pleasure and
whose price lies within the reach Of al
most every one.
Lamp shades are ever growing in popu-
larity, and the more inimltable their treat
ment and the more originality displayed
IN their creation. the more priced they be-
come.
For the girl who is fond Of outdoor
life, and who wishes to turn her mind to
some account, there is the fascinating oc-'
cupation Of raising violets. With a little
study and care. this will be found not to
be difAcult feat and there is an ever
growing demand for this most popular Of
flowers.
Some women In the West have gone in
for raising frogs and have made a sue
cessful venture of II. Squads, too, are
rarity that make a constant demand upon
the market, and to raise them In Quanti-
ties is a paying business. There are
many, many avenues now open to the
girl who wishes to devote but a part
OF her time to enlargtng her Income.

He came up to see me himself and
brought this picture which was taken

looks just like it although he is old
enough now to make a really truly
speech, and sing a sure enough song,
all Of which he did for me when he
brought his picture to be entered in
the Borden Baby Contest.
The world is so good to little William
that he dimples just because he is
happy, and the fun bubbles out all over
him because there just isn't room enough
inside to keep it all bottled up in his
sunny little being.

than to hear Dady-man exClaim to his

The applause of his dear home circle

for me and all the time watch the ex-

sure that he was coming up to the stand

mother has fathomed already the depth

is something she is rightfulIy more proud

CHAPTER XIII.
The Judge Extends His Credit,


That afternoon Judge Price walked
out to Belle Plain. Solomon Mahaffy
had known that this was a civility
Betty Malroy could by. no means es-
cape. He had been conscious of the
judges purpose from the moment 1t
existed in the germ state, and he had
striven to divert him, but his striving
had been in vain, for though the judge
valued Mr.. Mahany because of certain
sterling qualities which he professed to
discern beneath the hard crust that
made up the external man, he was not
disposed to accept him as his mentor
in nice matters of taste and gentle
manly feeling. He owed 1t to himself
personally to tender his sympathy. Miss
Malroy must have heard something OF
the honorable part he had played.
Surely she could not be in ignorance
of the fact that the lawless element.
dreading his further activities had
threatened him. She must know, too,
about that reward of $1,000. Certainly
her grief could not blind her to the
fact that. he had met the situation
with a lafgeness of public spirit that
was an impressive lesson to the entire
community.
These were all points over which he
and Mahaffy had wrangled, and he felt
that his friend. in seeking to keep him
away from Belle Plain. was standing
squarely in his light. He really could
not understand Solomon or his obJec-
tions. He pointed out that Norton had
probably left a will-no one knew yet
probably his estate would go to his
Intended wife-what more likely? He
understood Norton had cousins some-
where In Middle Tennessee-there was

fculties his agile fancy assembled In

II was going to be a very easy matter
to learn the authors of the quotations
given. but in this 1t seems I was mis-
taken. for no perfect solution has yet
been received from either the grown
ups or from the children.
This should be very encouraging to
those who are still working on the puZ-
zle. and 1t should certainly persuade
every one to send their list of authors
whether it is complete or otherwise.
In almost any standard book of quo

be found where. Of course, their authors
are also given. II is but matter OF
looking for them, writing out the
authors names and sending me the list
when. presto! the first prize Is yours!
Provided, of course, your list is cor

yet win a prize. The chances for this
are certainly very good If the solutions
that are to come are as imperfect as

ceived after that hour will be eligible
for a prize.
l was asked yesterday by a trio OF
bright boys II there was any objection
to their chipping together, helping the
other with the answers to each number
of the puzzle, and dividing the money
should the combined list they send win.
Certainly there is no objection to any
club formations for the object of un-
tangling the puzzle. so go ahead, boys.
Everybody is invited to find the au-
thors to the puzzle quotations, and It
is not Objectionable that friends work
out the enigma together. sending IN
either combined or separate solutions
when they have done so. J. C. NJ.
