 Once upon a time pink rose wllis- pered to a bluebird that was singing Flush. the Rose Fairy is sick; don't make d noise. She is still asleep in her little rose bed in that big pink rose behind the garden wall. We have just finished her new home and last night is the first night she slept In her new place.,
 The little b1uebird stopped singing because the birds, and flowers loved the Rose Fairy The bluebird said: What i@ the nnatter?,' I've don't knuw.a answered the Hose When we went this morning to wake her we found that she was crying and although she turned away her face so ~e would not know we could not help but see the tears in her eyess''

 Perhaps she would,s' answered the Rose 1T will go and ask her if she will let you come and see her. So the fairy and said: The hluebird wants te see you Won't you let him come Inz'

 The color of your eyes matters 1it- tie if you are blessed with thich. dark brows, for the surroundings make or mar eyes Pretty lashes and tbrows are 50 easy to acquire that it is almost a fault not to have them.
 If you would have thick, dark brows after bathing your face at night brush into them plenty of vaseline. A tooth brush is as gaod as anything for this purpose Brush backward and for ward to work in the vaseline. then smooth the brotvs along the lines you wish them to follow
 Tn treating the 1ashes rub the vase- line in with the finger tips being care fu1 not to get 1t into the eye. It is not injurious. but will make the eye smart Brush the 1ashes in one direction. to- ward the outer corner of the eye, and slightly curve the Iashes up at the end.
 If you persist in this treatment it will not fail to darken your iasf1es and brows and make them grow, pro- ing your face with any bleaching pre- paration that will counteract your ef- forts in this direction. It is well if you areusfng a bleach to rub in a grease of some sort either vaseIine or cold cream before applying the bleach to the face Vaseline is really better. for the cUld cream you use may have q bleaching agent in 1t.
 When you are satisfied that your brows are dark and thick enough, re- duce the treatment to twice week but never discontinue it altogether
 Bathe your eyes daily to keep them bright Use an eye cup with luke warn, water Be sure to dry them thoroughly afterwards and also dry all moisture from the 1ashes and around them.

 It is pleasant for. a young man to be O favorite with the girls, but it also may have it's disadvantages He may have had one heart affair that he thought considerable Of at the tinae, but he passed it by.

They are beguiling, too: but each one seems to lack that somethins which in her personality appealed so to him When a man meets a young woman. he knows he cares for. he should give the matter long and serious thoughts ere he thrusts aside the. chance of wooihg and making her his own.
 After he lets the first opportunity slip by, he is apt to let the same thing, happen again and again. There comes a time in such, fnens s lives when they wake up to the fact that a man can not marry happily just when he will. If he forgets that he has entered mid- de life and still has 9 penchant for. girls not out of their teenss he is rude ly awakened from his day dreams by seeing the pretty young thing whom he has taken to some social affair casting wistfu1 sheep's eyes at some young stripIing in his teensyounE enough to be his son.

It is my highest ambition to win for my wife this dear, good girl and when she raises her merry blue eyes to nay adoring face I think she loves me in return, but she is far away from me and she will not write to me. I've writ ten time and again. told her love her very being, that worship the. ground she walks on, that am hun gry and 1anguishing for even one: word from her, but in spite of all this not one line will she send me. Dear Miss Iibbey, what shall I do? Dick.

10TH WE'RE TOO YOUNG TO WED

Dear Miss Libbey:
 am a young girl of seventeen and know you will think me very foolish when tell you that I am in love with a young man of tWenty-one. My trouble is that sometimes when I am swith him he will not talk and at other times he talks more than I do. He says he loves me better than he does any other girl and that he will marry, but he thinks us both too young. Now, Miss Libbey. please give me some good advice.
  As far as can judge you have no reason to find fault with the goung man. There are times when people incline toward silence and quiet oth- CT occasions when they feel joviaI and talkative. You have plenty of time to talk over love and matrinony during the next two or three years. I would advise waiting that long.

"Certainly. shall be more>t than pleased to look after her if the poor child d,has escaped the surveillance of. her relatives. No friend could do less" the spy answered suavey, an expression of surprise in his eyes.
 "l don't understand" began the causain looking quite foolish now. ''The young lady tells me she is Miss Lucille Love- daughter of Gen. eral Sumpter Love of the United States Arnv stationed at Manila; that, YOU caused to he stolen from the safe in her fathers office cer- tam papers and documents regarding govern. ment matters and that her sweetheart was &C., cnsed of selling them, and, in consequence placed under arrest.

 Loubeque threw up his hands in a pest,re that seemed to combine contempt for the in tellgence of the questioner and pity for the one telling the tale.
 'My dear captain" he murmured reproving- ly, while l am delighted to know the vorpg lady is safe, l must object to listening further 1t Is unbelievable that passenger should be disturbed at this hour of the night to listen to any such nonsense As you undoubtedly know, there army scandal at Manila a few months back in which the sweetheart of General Loves daughter arrested. As you doubtless know the liner Empress burned about that same time The young woman was in Manila with her family and being of an impressionable
 
 romance made deep sympathy rise in her. Her own sweetheart was aboard the Empress and" He did not finish save to touch his hand lightly to his head
 The captain nodded and Lucille seeing now the maddeningly unbelievable quality of the story she had told regarding her adventures, felt hot rage fairly burning her up. She sprang at the captain, taking his coat in her hands and shaking him fiercely.
 "1 am not insane-its the truth-every wod-' she sobbed, then lifting eyes in which the clear light of sanity gloved unmistakablv. Captain, | swear to you that every word is true"
 The captain turned from one to the other Tn tho very extremity of perplexity. Finally he nodded to Loubeque that he might leave and. with slow smile, the spy turned away.
 Young lady," he said slowly you will re- sume your duties for tonight and in the morning l will see that you are properly clothed. I will immediately send wireless to the authorities in San Francisco and that you are met by them at the pier. No harm can come to you from this man. You understand why I am unable to do more for you, I-'
 Lucille extended her hand ;grasping his firm ly and meeting the troubled eyes of the man with her own-her eyes, in which gloved gratitude and confidence and truth And in that handcasp the pair cemented common union against any enemy.

LUCILLE LOVE, The Girl of Nusteru

And so the young lady with murderous tendencies was aboard my boat all along" he beaned ominously, then, before she had oppor- tunity to interrupt. "Of course you understand that l must put you in irons and turn you over to the authorities in San Francisco"
 Some impulse impelled her, an impulse to put a manner altogether at variance with her nature. She drew herself saucily erect, meeting his eyes with laughter lurking in her own.
 "Of course you don't intend doing any such thing she retorted boldly. "l was sick and the woman they left to nurse me sneaked in the room late at night and tried to stab me. l saw her slip out and suspicious of her, so slipped behind the door and grabbed the mans gun when he put it a chair.

 positions in which they had been
