Today's Short Story
The Bogus Clerical

HAVING been ordered by the bishop
 to proceed to Helena to fill the - place. of a brother clergyman who had been taken i'll. was pro ceeding by stage-the only vehicle then in use in Nontana--And alone in the coach. Shortly before dusk the driver pulled up in lonely place, and I heard him talking with some one Then a man opened the door and got in. He was roughly dressed, but hif' face was singularly refined.
 The stranger opened conversation and we soon got into an animated dis cussion. He knew by my canonicals that was a clergyman of the Episco- pal church. and I told him that was the Rev. Charles Dingiey' going to Helena to preach tho next day.
 ssWell, now" he said, .'that's strange am going to Helena for the same purpose"

 "Certainly. I may not appear veyy clerical in this toggery," Glancing at his high boots, corduroy trousers and blue flannel shirt
 You see, I was out fishing when received the bishops order, and, not having time to go home and get my priestly garments, cut across the country to meet this coach"
 There was something very extraordi- nary about this.

s COUNTRY HOUSE GUESTS. ]

A hostess who. enteEtains great many young people has found that when they have something to do about the house they feel more at home So she suggests that they are at liberty to gather and arrange the flowers from. her beautiful gardenS, and for thiskbit of work sl1e9 has provided every possi- ble convenience..
 On small porch overlooking the water is a long, high wooden table covered with copper. On one end of it is an assortment of vases, jars. jugs. bowls and glass lined basketssof artis- tic shapes and colors. and near by IS a large brown wicker hamper into which the debris goes.
 For gathering the flowers there are leather lined wicker baskets on stand ards and fitted with garden shears. With all these converiences, no suit able vases to be looked for. no water to carry, no disorder to be cleaned up. arranging flowers in this house is poetic joy.

'
 4 mole on the right cheek or right arm signifies happiness in love affairs.
 One on the right hand shows future happy maria ge- A mole on the left cheek or left, arm signifies adverse fortune, particularly as regards love af- fairs.
 On the left hand. the posses sion of mole betokens an un- fortunate 4from the worldly point of viewl marriage
 Moles on the right cheek or arm. in combination with one or more on the left hand, point to more good fortune in, love af- fairs than in money matters.
 A mole at the corner of the right eye points to a rich and in dulgent husband.
 A mole at the right side of the . chin shows good fortune, long life and happy marriage
 A mole on the chin. if it be light yellow. in color, shows a woman to be a good housewife. If brown in color it portends a happy married life, but possibly troublesome children.

 A sign of wealth, present or fu- cure, is to have mole at the right hand corner of ones mouth.

FOR FLOWER LOVERS.

Cleanliness is as necessary to growing plants as It is to sue cessful housekeeping. Pots and leaves should be frequently wash ed and sprayed.
 To set growing house plants in the bathtub and spray them with a bath spray is one of the best methods of giving their leaves the necessary moisture.
 A pansy bed is an indispensable part of the little home garden. because pansies can always be picked.

FRIENDSHIPS.
Friend is a word of royal tone; Friend is d noam all alone

Friend is a word of royal tone; Friend is a poem all alone
 The only way to have a friend is to be one; it is a friendly heart that has plenty of friends.
 We have few friendships be cause we are unwilling to pay the price of friendship.
 To the young, friendship comes as the beauty of spring; to be old, it is as the bloom of autumn.
 The highest friendship will al- ways lead us to the highest pleas ures.
 They. seem to take away the sun from the world who with draws friendship from life.
 Friendship is love without his : wings
 True friendship is like good health; the value of it is seldom known until it has. been lost.
 Whena two friends part they should lock up each others secrets and exchange keys. a s .s t S <. , a s s s .A k = . .s s
