A Lesson From Home.
Once I had nadia strange,
silent, stubborn girl with blue
eyes. so hard that they were like
a flint. She had a strange, meas
ured walk and a strange, con
trolled voice, and she always act
ed as II she thought some one was
watching her.
One day I saw her in blue
print dress, of peculiar cut and
shade, and ! knew-she was
refornatory girl. I'd seen her
before, at the reformatory.
I didn't say a word. I treated
her exactly as had always treat
ed her but one day she was gone
and she left a letter for me. In
it she said many things. One
of them was this: You know
me; don't you? ! believe you
do. l thought I could be differ
ent, but can't. You've been good
to me, but I amt happy here.
] amt comfortable, so I'm going"
and gone she was. back to the
people with whom she was com
Portable" poor thing. Back to
the people who were like her and
who had her ways and her point
Of view, 7 was sorry but didn't
go after her or try in any way
to reach her
Perhaps I should have-Ive
often wondered-and yet there
were the children. Would It have
been exactly safe?"
Selfish-protecting my children
at the expense of a poor thing
who was trying to make herself
over.
Perhaps; but those children are
mine. They are my business. It
Is my affair to keep them safe
as long as I can. My own door
step l must keep clean, and then
if l have time and strength
may help my neighbor about
hers That's the way it looks
to me I wonder if l am right or
wrong?
What You Really Are.
The poor thing from behind
the tracks" didn't belong in the
neat little street uptown. She
was no more in place there with
her loud laugh and her beached
hair than the timid little woman
who lived beside her would be
in place in the ranks of march
ing army. l don't blame the
neighbor women for looking the
other way Honestly, now, 1 don't.
And the high heeled, expensive
slippers and the open worked
stockings and the gorgeous hats
ana the nashlng rlngs-she had
had all these things while little
neighbor turned her blue cash
mere and trimmed it with black
velvet one year and with cream
colored lace the next, trying to
make herself look pretty to the
one man she loved. How could
the poor thing from behind the
tracks think she would never
have to pay for all that?
After all though. it isn't whs

either; but what you really are,

housing or anything else viii

NEW ENGL4ND'S REAL BEAUTY
Wild Roses in Profusion During the
Summer Months Have = Charm
That All Enjoy.

Nothing in rural New England is
finer than the outburst of wild roses
which begins about the middle of
June and in some places lasts until
the end of September. The wild rose
bushes are frequently found cluster
ing along the old stone walls which
were formerly in great abundance
and now are more and more rarely
found dividing the hillside or seashore
farms into pasture lots or corn fields
or orchards. If there was any one
product which New England generous
ly and even lavishly offered its mas
tiers when they first began to clear
its wilderness, it was the materials
for stone walls. They were Impair
TALLY distributed under and over the
soil. The stones were of every size
and shape; there were huge ones for
the lower courses and graduated minor
ones to pile on top. In many places
they could be made double thickness,
with hollows to fill in with superf1ui-
ties. That often failed to exhaust the
supply. 1t is odd that they were not
used more for building houses, even
as they found their place in lining
deep wells where hung specimens of
the old oaken bucket. OF late years.
especially along the seashore, archi-
tectS having cast their eyes on them
and seen in them artistic possibilities,
the farmers have been glad to sell at
rather high, certainly at growing
prices, the old stone walls that their
ancestors or the original owners of
the land had created at such cost of
lame backs and sweaty foreheads-
The disappearance of them has caused
a considerable loss in the pictures
queness of many localities. Around
them, clustered the wild rose bushes,
and the delicate pink blossoms looked
like exotic butterflies. Wild roses do
not stand picking very well; they
quickly drop their petals or fade away
when put into vases; but if not IN
terfered with they keep up a sweet
succession of blossoms, and often one
may see the jeweled humming- bird
posing over them, perfectly motion
less, apparently, though his wings are
buzzing like a dynamo, then dardng
off like coal of fire.

FRIENDS FOREVER
BY HAROLD CARTER.

Blair occupied a studio in an old
fashioned district of New York, at
the very top of the lodging-house
where rooms could be obtained With
out board for sums varying from two
to seven dollars weekly. Blair liked
the place because it was solitary, and
had stipulated that his room was not
to be cleaned. There he established
himself with ninety-five dollars and
the paraphernalia of his trade
He calculated that the money would
last him just long enough for the
completion of his great stained glass
window for the Church of the Annun-
citation The agreement was for pay
ment upon delivery, and Blair knew
that his first commission would lead
to many others. He had eight weeks
in which to complete the work, and
he had spent two sketching and pac-
ing the floor, smoking innumerable
cigarettes while his ideas took form
in his mind
/ He could not fix the image of the
angel. His ideas, shadowy at first,
had gradually crystallized into a wo-
mans face that he had never seen.
Sometimes he would wander through
the streets looking for her, but he
never found her.
However, even without this he could
produce satisfactory piece of work.
He knew that and worked hard His
unintentional f-own when he met
other roomers on the stairs soon
taught them to leave him alone. He
had the reputation of being a crank.
That was what Mrs. James, the land
lady, told Miss Lucy Dexter.
I'm sorry that 1 must give you the
room next to his, my DEAR" she said
to the girl, but as you can't pay
more than two that's the only one
1 can let you have at the price
There's only his room and yours on
the top floor, but I guess he won't
annoy you, if you don't mind his
frown.''
But Della did mind his frown-ter-
ribly. She had not been long in New
York, where she supported herself
as stenographer in a law Office.
She was homesick and unhappy, and
she had no friends at all.
Blair scowled dreadfully when he
came to realize that the room next
to his was taken, and by a woman.

he never looked at Miss Dexter but
hurried by, and as time passed her
presence only seemed to irritate him
the more.
Delias sympathetic heart was
touched by Blair's appearance. She
thought he did not have enough to
eat She did not know that it was
overwork and worry that caused him
to get thinner and more haggard-look-
ing as the weeks went by. In fact
half the allotted time had gone and
the masterpiece was hardly begun.
Gradually a thought came into
Delia's head. She would help him,
despite himself. He need never know
who it was that watched over him,
but, lonely herself, she would help
others as lonely. She formed very
daring plan.
She had come to know, the routine
of Blair's daily life. Every evening
at six O'Clock he would lock his door
and go out to the cheap restaurant
where he ate his supper. The rest of
his meals he cooked in his studio, but
the supper hour was unvarying. AS
he became used to her presence he
ceased to notice her at all. And one
evening a long-hoped for event hap
That was Delia's opportunity. He
would not return for an hour, and one
can do a great deal in an hour. Soft
Iy she crept in, armed with broom
and a buster. She was going to tidy
his room for him.
When she had entered she looked
round her in Amusement. She saw
the bed, without sign of linen, in
one co-ner; in another a little gas
stove and a table. with a couple OF
chairs. And the floor was a perfect
rubbish-heap of broken glass and
paints and varnishes. She did not
know that all ehese fragments OF
glass were the unpieced portions Of
the great window.
First she sorted out the cans and
placed them in orderly array against
the wall. Then she gathered the
glass fragments together and put
them in heap upon the floor. Then,
taking her buster, she mounted
chair and began TO wipe the cobwebs
from the walls.
al the while she was listening in
tentiy fer 4 step on the stairs; yet
