THE MASTER BEGGAR.
BY Edith Rickert.

Love may come limping, halt or blind,
Yea, he may wear the mask of sim
Though he be brutal, rough, unkind-
Open the door and let him in.
He stands and laughs at the hands
that deny,
He knows that for him there is no
nav,
He knocks where he viii. with low
and high
Enters and sets his stan away
You may crowd your hall with many
a guest,
To pipe and dance in his despite;
You may work and forget him, mock
him with jest
Patient he sits there, morn and
night.
No aims may content him. Silent to
wait
TIL he holds the keys Of hfe-his
The becgar is master and keeps his
state
Alone by the hreside Of the heart.

DEATH IN HOBBLE SKIRTS
When Girl Is Trapped in a Blazing Building the
New Fashions Prove To Be Very
Poor Friends.

You will learn for yourselves just how
wide skirt you can wear, for we VIII
have fire drills enough to test ali your
clothes before the summer is over.
LAS a matter of fact. the narrow skirt Is
safer than the very wide one. The full.
pleated skirt is really far more dangerous
because IL catches on knobs and nails
and people behind you step on II. or you
have to use both hands TO hold Ii no, and
you haven't anything to hang onto the
fire escape with The narrow skirt you
can at least pull up around your knees
and get it out of the way. No. forget all
that false modesty. People aren't inter-
ested in your legs when lives are in dan
ger Better d leg on the IRE escape than
a corpse IN the mOrgue.
Another peril OF the fashionable factory
worker IS her pumps. Mrs. Christopher
rails by the hour at the giddy patent
leather novelties that most OF the pretty
girls wear with their hobbies and hufty
ruffles.
The other rule I'm asking the girls TO
remember is No loose pumps, said
Mrs. Chri stopher. Wear shoes that are
fastened on YOU / tell EN-. ! don't care
If they are high or low, buttOned or laced
or tied on with gold chains so long as
they don't flop of every step girl takes

falling off at every round? Shed lose ner
