Helen had marked none OF thse, and
she looked on without interest, still
brooding over the chair, until a huge
brass jar was put up
Antique Water Carrier, the catalOg
called it. but in flash it occurred to
Helen that it would make a splendid
clothes hamper-something they had to
have And this was Tar more artistic
hampers which she had priced last week
for 81 and y.
The Jar was started at 50 and was
knocked down to Helen for S. This
time she was elated at her purchase
Eager to examine it more closely. she
left her seat and went into the back
room where all the goods that had been
sold were taken
1t Was Useless.
The brass Jar was there, but, to her
horror, when she stopped over to lift oft
the lid she found it did not come off.
What seemed to be a lid was not one
at al-there was only small opening
at the top too small to put anything
in
absolutely useless thingi What could
she do with ItI
From the next loom came the auc-
tiOneer's voice, -417-Anique Mahoga-
ny knife BOx! 1t was one Of the artf-
cles Helen had marked, but now with
a feeling Of reVulsion she turned
quickly and made her way out Of the
building.
The whole place had grown hateful
to her. She was sick Of her purchases
For the chair she paid too much, and
the brass Jar-she could not bear to
think Of it
What would Warren say when he
saw that2 What excuse could she give
for having bought such a thing2 Oh, IL
she had only stayed al home II she
could only feel free and unWOrried as
she had this morning.

The Nightmare Of His Love

IF there is a girl somewhere in this

away, let her read the following letter
and take hope

to Pittsburg and didn't tell me she
was going, and didn't send me a post

and my best friend is calling on her.
Would it be proper FOR ne to call, too,
as she has never told me our engage
ment is broken, and cannot sleep
nights, as I always see her red hair

One Of the most distressing OF all

he seems TO be making up for il By

her with his love that she VIII lose all

The love OF a red haired girl is vel
worth the winning. Her love is fer
vent. like her hair. She is generous
to a fault; she is warm hearted; she
is true. Her love, once won, shows
more lasting qualities than the love OF
either a blonde or a brunette. She
loves for life.
Because Of al this I am sorry that
the man who loves her so maddeningiy
is so timid-

to face these disagreeable things and

TO reduce expenses is not alone with
Hawley, but we see the same being
tried in many other places. A very

one member of the school board, ie.,
to let the objectors who want the

change in the management get the
signature of the owners of one-fourth
of the assessed valuation of the prop
