The Daily Novelette,

Nebuchadnezzar on his 207th birth
day, was summing himself on his front
porch. Moses Scratcher, the novelist
and the old gentleman's neighbOr,
passed by (See Fam Bezy's ''Nebuchad-
nezzar's Home Life.")
" Morning, Neb," he cried familiar
". 1.-TWO hundred and seven today.
Ell? Well, Pm only AZ and I've writ
ten nineteen books and a Jerusalem
street guide. and you, with all your
years OF experience couldn't make a
shekel with your pen if you tried til

"Oh, is that So" retorted Nebu-
chadnezzar. well, I'll bet you a pair
Of sandals can make 500 shekels out
Of two pages of writing tomorrow"
"Ha, had" laughed Scratcher. "All
right, Neb, that's a bet
The next day the old gentleman
wrote two pages. and a few days later
the following half-page advertise
ments appeared in different pages of
the Ararat BuEle:
Gentlemen; 1 wish to testify that

I hereby take the opportunity to

And the old gentleman was so pleased
at the result (they gave him 1000
shekels for his ads) that he let
Scratcher off on the sandals.

"OMMY TABBY was just exactly
like a great many other little
- boys When he was very well
he was apt to forget that he had ever
been sick, and he had very little SYM
patty for anyone who did have the
misfortune to have to stay inside OF
the house during the wonderful au-
tumn weaCner.
When his mother suggested that he
stay in and play one Saturday morning
with Teddy, who was i'll upstairs in the
big bedroom, he almost felt as II he
was being mistreated. To stay inside
on day like this! He could not make
up his mind to do it Teddy was not
very ILL., he only had bad cold which
kept him in for a few days, but he was
tired and lonesome

his head: mo, I just made new kite

morning while the wind is high. You
won't mind will you?" Without wait
ing for Teddy's answer, Tommy con-
tinued. SAY, Ted, lend me that ball Of
string you had the other day. I haven't
enough"
As he spoke he scratched around in
the play box, where all of the odds
and ends were kept, but he did not
like to look up at Ted. Somehow he
did not want to see the dropping whis-
kers and the look of disappointment
which. he was sure, had fallen like
mask on the face Of his chum.
Take it if you want, I shan't need
it, said Teddy, and he went over and
looked disconsoIately out Of the win
dow.
Hurriedly and with rather a shamed
face, Tommy found the string and ran
out without even saying goOdby.
Teddy stood at the window for a
long time. His ears were limp, his
whiskers dropped, and he could scarce
" keep the tears back as he watched
Tom out in the side yard. Tommy ran

WOMAN OF 30 AND BOY OF q.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
am a man Of p, and am deeply in
love with a young woman 10 years
older than I, although she looks as
young as I do. I have asked this girl
to marry me, but she hesitates on &C
count of the difference in our ages. She
claims she loves me dearly. Do you
think this would interfere with. our
future happiness? The difference in
our ages makes no difference to me.
Pittsburgh
cannot consoientiously advocate a
marriage in which the woman is 10
years older than the man. And yet
there have been cases in which such
marriages were very happy. Search
your own heart and see If you would
still care devOtedly for your wife if
her beauty and her youthful vivacity
were gone Whether or not such a
marriage turns out well depends large
ly upon the man.

HE IS A TRUE FRIEND.

HE IS A TRUE FRIEND.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Please tell me if you think the
friendship Of two girls should bet
stronger than that between a young
girl and a young man? I met a young
man at his boarding house. afterward
he forbade me to 90 there. saying it
was no place for me. A young girl
there was very dear to me. Before this
my father and mother had asked me
not to go, but never said I might not

girl l visited there about twice a week.

said 1t would be better for me not to
go I discontinued my visits altogether.
several other people also told me to
stop going there. But never seeing
anything wrong, I decided to find out
for myself. / have not been there for
some time. Ny friend told this girl he
had asked me to stay away. She asked
him why did not come, OF he would
not have told her. She was very angry
because I did not go. As I love him.
whose friendship shah I keep
The girl who lives in or visits a
house about which there is any dues-
ton or criticism. subjects herself to
unkind criticism The young man
proved himself an interested and loyal
friend, and his friendship is well worth
keeping II the girl you used to visit
knows that the place in which she is
living is subjected to harsh criticism.
she herself ought to feel inclined to
move and she ought not to want an
other girl to risk her reputation by
coming there. 1t seems that your girl
friend has not very fine feelings and
that the man has unusually good prin-
ciples, so there can be no question as
to whose friendship you should choose.
The point is not that one is a girl and
the other a man-but that one is a good
influence in your life and the other
has caused you to act in a way that
did not accord with the wishes Of your
parents.
