"The best laid plans of mice and men,
Gang aft agley."

The young mans ambition leads
him into the thick of life's battles,
the sport for those who have been
born with a silver spoon IN their
mouths They grasp every opportuni-
ty which he is striving for. And one
of these falls In love and marries the
girl whom he has set his heart upon.
He sits down amid the wreck Of his
plans, facing life's truth. That which
we aim for we seldom accomplish
Just as we had planned it. 1t is al
ways the unexpected which happens
turns our feet into unknown paths.
The girl who made such roseate
plans does not find that her road runs
as smooth as glass. She has her ups
ard downs, her little troubles, heart
aches and jealousies. Her chum cuts
her out with the college boy who
she was sure was to be her fate. She
has a bakers dozen of lovers and
vould-be admirers ere Mr.. Right
comes along.
She does not meet him either at
ball or slelghlng party, as sne nao

meeting that they seemed to take to

just in time to take her out of snow
bank, as she plodded her way through
the darkness and storm. She invites
hiri in to take cup OF coffee. The
night is coming on, SO bitter cold.
That coffee sends glow to his
heart. Ere he leaves they plan to go
through life together hand in hand.
The planning OF .ae welded pair is
quite different. They turn no false
light upon their hopes. They are too
wise to long for the unattainable.
They have reached an age when they
can appreciate the fruits Of we'll

LlFE's SHATTERED PLANS.

"Our day dreams bring long-lost scenes Of
the past
Back to our view;
Pictures of friendships not destined to
last,
Loves that grew weak meath adversity's
blast
Painted anew"
Every man and woman make glori-
Gus plans for their future when life
is In its morning. Young men are
full of ambition. They plan first for
business that shall prosper; then
comes the thought of home of their
own, and a wife.
The plans of young girls are mostly
hazy, taking no definite shape. They
look eagerly forward to happy girl
hood and the pleasures which jewel
it. Here the timid maiden's plans
halt. There are others with further
reaching day dreams of lover who
shall one day come from somewhere
in this great world to seek them out,
and the romance will lead to the peal
ing of marriage bells.

Breakers Ahead.

1t is asserted in a cablegram
from London that the Germans
may stop the relief work for Bel
GUM undertaken by philanthropy
ic Americans.
Belgium is being devastated
and trampled by Germany. The
Germans are still collecting mon
ey from the Belgian cities at the
rate of thousands Of dollars a
day. If the American relief
work does anything it will be to
supply the Belgians with the ne.
cessities of life while they are
turning over their last dollar to
the Germans. The New York
World frankly suggests the pos
sibility that the Germans will
simply steal the money sent by
America. At any rate it looks
as if there are obstacles between
the desire to help the Belgians
and the accomplishment of the
end in view. The money and
provisions may be halted, and if
they get into Belgium what's to
prevent their being commander
ed by the German army? Pro.
Tossing no familiarity with the
uestions of the rights of neutrals
to Invade" captured territory

material relief, we do not see
how the United States can do
more than offer the Belgians aid.

The Perfect Laxative
For Elderly People

Age has it's attractions no less than
youth in a more serene and quieter life
But it is this very life of rest without
sufficient exercise that brings with it
those disorders that arise from in
activity. Chief of these are a chronic,
persistent constipation.
Most elderly people are troubled in
this way, with accompanying symptoms
of belching, drOwsinesS after eating
headaches and general lassitude FIRE.
quently there is difficulty of digesting
even light food. Much mental trouble
ensues, as it is hard to find a suitable
remedy. First of all the advice may be
given that elderly people should not use
salts, cathartic pills or powders, waters
or any of the more violent purgatives.
What they need, women as well as men,
is a mild laxative tonic, one that is
pleasant to take and yet acts without
gripping.

Sand Cuts Wires.

An electric trolley extends
from Cairo. Egypt, to the Pyr-
amids of Gizeh. The trunks of
huge palm trees serve as trolley
poles to support the overhead
conductor, and the contrast be.
tween the modern hurrying mo-
torcars and the peaceful centuries
old tombs of the Pharaohs holds
the interest of many a contem-
pletive traveller.
At one side of the trolley con-
ductor on bell shaped insulators
are run the feeders, which, like
the trolley wire. are of bright,
hard-drawn copper. After these
wires had been installed it was
found that they invariably broke
and fell within six or seven
months, the cross section being
much reduced at the point of
fracture.
Investigation showed that the
desert winds which sweep across
the right-of-way whip sand par
ticles against the wires, causing
a filing action which cuts away
the copper much like an artificial
sand ballast. The glass globes
of arc lamps installed along the
road have exhibited the same de-
structive action.
A similar effect is observed
with the incandescent units used
to light the way to the Sphinx.
These strings of lamps, besides
having to be moved at frequent
intervals to accommodate the
varying level of the shifting
sands, are rapidly eaten away
by the etching action of the des-
ert winds. Thus far no remedy
has been discovered for this de-
struction except frequent re-
newals.

The Magic Slippers,

f= sV~O
Once there was u powerful king
whose daughter was the most beauti-
full woman in the world. Her name
Vas Princess Elsie. Princess Elsie had
heard of Il wonderful pair Of slippers.
The owner could go anywhere or wish
anything he chose. and instantly 1t
was fulfilled. She wanted them ~
badly, but she could not get them be-
cause they were at the other end Of
the world.
She went to the king, her father. and
said, Your majesty. grant me a year
to find the wonderful SLIPPERS
At first the king would not consent,
but at last gave way. The next day
she started. attended by only n serv-
ant. That day they travelled many
miles. so that at night they were ex-
ceedingly tired. They rested at a cot
tage. Their hostess was Princess H.
sizes fairy sodmother in disguise. She
asked them where they were going.
The princess answered, ITO the end
Of the world to find the magic slip
pers."
The fairy godmother granted them
success. The next day they started of
again. They travelled for weeks and
months, but still they were not at the
end Of the world.
At last they reached the end of the
world. but they had not found the
slippers. Princess Elsie said sadly,
"nh wish I had fOuni the mn y1C
slippers"
Just as she said this, strange to say.
she saw them before her. She took
them up and wished that she and her
faithful servant We're at home. When
her father saw her he was wild with
Joy because it was near the end of the
second year There was rejoicing
which lasted many days throughout
the kingdom.

No. 1. No. . and No. 3. When he has
answered he is told who were the in
dividuals named. II his wishes are
impossible he pays a forfeit. but il
possible. however absurd, he escapes.
and another Of the party leaves the
room.
Example:
No. l. George Washington.
No. 2. Grand Duke Alexis.
No. 3. Queen Mary.
When the leader returns he is asked:
"What will you do with No. II"
Answer: II will send it to Africa"
"What will you do with No. p"
Answer: 81. will put it in the ash
barrel"
"What will you do with No. 81"
Answer: II will make it president of
the United States"
You must pay two forfeits. One ia
George Washington. 1t would be pos
sible to send him to Africa. as We
make no allowance for heroes being
dead and buried. But our second is
Duke Alexis. You cannot put him in
the ash barrel. And our third is
Queen Mary. whom you cannot make
president Of the United States.
Leader-Ill pay the forfeit for Mary,
but not for Alexis. 1t is absurd to
talk Of putting him in an ash barrel.
but l will not admit it to be impossible,
provided the barrel is big enough and
