Conan DoyIe's New Story.

Something new in romance--so
ABSOLUTELY original that it will thrill
the most hardened novel reader!
Such is Conan Doyle's The Lost
World
Did you know that in the I'M
explored wilderness between the
Andes and the Amazon there still
exist many OF the monster animals
that walked the earth before man
was created? 1t has remained for
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle---and the
irascible Professor Challenger---to
discover this lost world and take
YOU right into it. How does it
feel to be chased by a dinosaur as
big as house, or attacked by
pterodactyl as large as a biplane::
You will know before you finish
this fascinating story, for the auth
or makes you see and believe. At
the same time you will learn more
about the prehistoric world than
dozen scientific treatises could tell
YOU, for the story makes you live
in it.
The action is leisurely at first.
Don't let that deceive you. Chal-
lenger is tarrific and captivating
hero and when he gets away on
his expedition look out for danger
unequaled in modern romance.
The story is tod with the irnagin-
alton of kipling or Jules Verne
and the mastery skill of the creator
Of Sherlock Holmes.
The Lost World" will appear
exclusively in the Sunday Maya
zine of The Record Herald, begin
ming March "a. Tell your friends
to read it and enjoy new sensat-
ion.

PLAYING CARDS UNCHANGED.

Quite apart from their use in vari-
GUS games, playing cards are an in
teresting study from historic and
pictorial points of view. There are
four suits, representing four classes
of people as they were divided at the
time the pack of cards we now use
was devised by the French. The
sSspades" stood for pikemen or SOL
diers, the "clubs" for clover, typify-
ing farmers, the diamonds" for
building titles, representing artisans,
and the ''hearts" for choirmen or &C.
clesiastics. The ''kings" and
queens" at that time were more or
less correct likenesses of certain
royal and noble personages. Even in
our modern packs it is said that one
of the "queens" is conventionalized
portrait of Elizabeth Of York, who
was engaged to the Dauphin Of
France. The "knaves" were then the
kings testers, and even these cards
may be portraits. All the court cards,
in fact, retain their sixteenth cen.
fury characteristics. Cards are
amongst the few things that have not
changed with the centuries.

SOME STORIES OF NAPOLEON

His Regime and That of the

claimed:

The emperor's presence in the
army produced great effect. Every
one had the blinidest confidence in
him; it was known by experience
that his plans would bring victory ;
so that, when he arrived our forces
we're morally doubled. But this per-
petuity of combats tired the old sol
diers, the old officers and the old
generals very much; they did not
hesitate to say SO, which prevented no
one from doing his duty when the oc-
casion offered. From "Recollections

gained courage to tell Sarah Ann
that she was taking up too much of
his time, and that she was subjecting
them both to gossip.
Sarah Ann promptly tainted away.
1t was one of her old style faints,
but the minister had not the knowl-
edge Of Hiram and was scared half
to death. He didn't beseech her to
live for his sake, however. She was
perfectly conscious and would have
heard his words. In due time she
was revived and managed to crawl
home, and she had to admit that she
had failed. She sat down and wrote
poem about a maiden who drowned
herself when she found that her low
ar scorned her love, and it was left
On the kitchen table as a guide to
brother Hiram. When he came in
to dinner at noon there was no din
ner. There was no Sarah Ann.
There was nothing but the broken
hearted poem. He read it and then
went out to make inquiries. He
learned that Sarah had been seen
walking in the direction of the river.
He followed after, while others took
other directions.
Sarah was down there on the
banks Of the romantic river, hiding
among the willows. Some were
weeping willows, and some on the
hilarious order, but they offered her
shelter. Hiram's sharp eyes soon
found her out, however. She started
on one of her old faints as he
drew near and she saw that his jaw
was set, but he had duty to per-
form and he performed it. He
picked her up and flung her into
the river. Then he hauled her ashore
and repeated the performance. She
gasped and gurglcd and shrieked,
but in she went again. When she
had been flung in and hauled out
about dozen times she really lost
consciousness. 1t was perhaps better
that she did. Hiram finally desisted
from the water cure to shoulder his
unconscious and dripping burden
and bear it through the streets to his
home and deposit it on the kitchen
floor with an "Um!" After half an
hour it revived and crept upstairs to
bed. After two days it crept down.
stairs to get the regular meals as
before, and the only greeting Hiram
bad was:
''If you hain't had enough of it
we'll go down to the river again"

in reply: and then the brother went

~UPPOSE fancy turns to love? How
can a young man, who is stranger
- in town, go about it to make the
acquaintance of the girl his heart is
seeking2
There are chances offered him for
hardening his muscles in a gymnasium,
He can get lessons in swimming Oppor-
tunities for improving his brain are
fairly thrust upon him. He gets free
baths, free books, free music, free art
galleries, free parks, and If he gets fl
nancialIy embarrassed he gets aid from
a prOvident association.
But if he is a self respecting, honor
able young man with ability to support
a wife, and the longing to have one, how
can he find her? He is a stranger in a
big city His employer is concerned
in his brain, his back, his hands and his
habits
His heart doesn't concern the man
who employs him. Neither does it seem
to concern the altruists.

Finds Few Chances to Meet Girls Who
Are His Equal
i am young man who came to the
city few months ago, taking a good
position. But L find my chances of
meeting girls my equal are not very
good. Perhaps you will tell me to join
some church society, as you told bus
mess girl who was discouraged for the
eral churches, and 1 do not believe the
opportunities for a stranger to meet
girls comes that way.
i have met a few ladies of well-re-
spected families who seemed to like me,
but they are so much older than myself
1 only want one girl, but 1 want one
suited to make a happy marriage
believe there are as many girls as
young men who find themselves in a
position similar to mine Now how
are they going to get together?
ftts Love Goes Deeper Than Just Mere
Beauty
Il can dance. and have gone to sew
eral dances lately, but the class of girls
one finds at dances are not to my
liking. Ny love goes deeper than Just
beauty. So many girls nowadays seem
to have nothing but fOOlishness in their
heads. They want the real sporty man.
ana viii not give the other fellows
chance, and from whatI know the men
they prefer are not the men with good
intentions.
Now what are the fellows like my
self going to do to find the right girl?

DEATHLESS FAME
By Ebert Hubbard, In Cosmopolitan Magazine.

II VERY good thing has been con-
demned in its day and genera
ton. Every innovation has to
fight for its life.
Error once set in motion continu-
ues indefinitely, unless blocked by a
stronger force, and old methods of
thinking and doing will always remain
unless some one invents a new and
better way and then lives and dies for
It. And the reason men oppose pro-
gress is not that they hate progress,
but that they love inertia
Even as great a man as John Ruskin
foresaw that the railroads would ruin
England by driving the stages out of
business and killing the demand for
horses, thus bankrupting the farmer.
