TN CHILDHOOD, the eyes are
round, and charming In their
l. straight ahead gaze. But as the
mind grows, the eyes elongate to an
oval-if not, 1t Is a sign that the
mind has not developed. On the
contrary, II the eye lengthens too
much, it marks the growth OF sus-
picious, crafty nature.
A wide, clear eye, with the least
droop at the corners, Is the ideal
of present-day standards in beauty.
They say the Empress Eugene had
the most perfect pair of dangerous
droopy eyes, of any famous beauty.
And this droop may be cultivated
easily. by frequently drawing out
the corners of the eyes, with the
least downward motion, letting the
pull come from the upper lid. This
will increase the size of the eye just
the faintest bit, and will counteract
the bead-like look that spoils most
round-eyed people.
Aside from this, nothing should be
done to the eye, to beautify it, ex-
cept to improve the eyelash and
brow, If these do not measure up to
standard. Light blue to the black
est at black eyes will be improved
and apparently enlarged, if the.
,lashes are long and sweeping. Be-
sides, ioug lashes shade the eye it.
self, protecting it from dust and from
the glare Of the sun. And they soft
en- the expression, giving q dreamy
charm that nothing can equal.
There are any number of reliable
creams which by their nature will
feed and nourish scanty brows and
lashes, and make them grow long
and thick. These are to be applied
with q soft camel's hafc brush at
night, touching the roots of the
hairs, without getting near the brim
Of the eyeball itself. A recipe for
the best known of these will be sent
upon receipt of a self-addressed,
stamped envelope.
Even more important, though. is
the cultivation of a bright, animated
expression, to lend depth and life to
the eyes appearance.

hands To his surprise the man did
not pick up stick or club. He held
out his hand again cautiously -
and spoke in voice new to Kazan.
The dog snapped again. and growled.
The man persisted, talking to him
all the time, and once his mittened
hand touched Kazan's head, and escap-

Again and again the man reached out
his hand and three times Kazan felt
the touch Of it, and there was neither
threat nor hurt in 1t. At last Pierre
turned away and went back over the
trail.
When he was out Of sight and hear

Gray Wolf came back and stood with

had never been this near to man be-
fore, except when the pack had over
taken the ,sledge out on the plain. She
could not understand. Every instinct
that was in her warned her that he
was the most dangerous of all things,
moro to be feared than the strongest
beasts, the storms, the foods, cold and
starvation. And yet this man had not
harmed her mate. She shifted at Ka-

Or the edge of the cellar and spruce

fire. He was bleeding from dozen
wounds, where the fans Of the wolves
had reached to his flesh, and he felt In
his breast that old and terrible pain, OF
which no one knew }the meaning but
himself. He dragged in log after log,

came from it a strange thrilling cry -
and he knew that here on the sledge
he had found not enmity and death,
en- away in the other world beyond the
ridge.
In flash he turned. He snapped
at Gray VOLTS flank, and she dropped
away with a startled yelp. It had all
happened in a moment, but the man
was almost down. Kazan leaped un-
der his dubbed rife and drove into
th ace of what was left Of the pack.
His fangs cut like knives. II he had
fought like demon against the dogs

ing and fighting the pack she joined
him in the struggle which she could
not understand.
When It was over, Kazan and Gray
Wolf were alone out on the plain. The
pack had skunk away into the night,
and the same moon and stars that had
given to Kazan the first knowledge OF
his birthright told him now that no
longer would those wild brothers OF
the plains respond to his call when ne
howied into the sky.
He was hurt. And Gray Wolf was
hurt, but not 50, badly as Kazan. He
was torn and bleeding. One OF his
legs was terribly bitten, After. time
he saw fire in the edge Of the forest.
The old call was strong upon him. He
wanted to crawl in to it, and feel the
girls hand on his head, as he had felt
that other hand in the world beyond
the ridge. He would have gone and
would have urged Gray Wolf to go with
him = but the man was there. He
whined, and Gray Wolf thrust her
warm muzzle against his neck. Some
thing told them both that they were
outcasts, that the plains, and the moon
and the stars were against them now,
and they skunk into the shelter and the
gloom of the forest.
Kazan could not go far. He could
still smell the camp when he lay down.
Gray Wolf snuggled close to him.
Gently she soothed with her soft
tongue Kazan's bleeding wounds. And
Kazan, lifting his head, whined softly
to the stars. s sEs

TODAY'S HOUSE.
HOLD AFFAIRS
BY MARY LEE.
Advice to Spring Brides.

The tears shed by the average bride
are the result. a rule, not of the
breaking of old ties, but of fatigue and
shaken nerves.
Trousseau building. house hunting
and furnishing, teas. dinners. luncheons
and dances are crowded into the last
few months preceding marriage. and
at the end of this period the victim is
likely to be more fit for a sanatorium
than for a honeymoon.
This excessive activity and resultant
fatigue are unfair not only to the bride
herself and her family, but to the fu-
ture husband. 1t is not easy. however,
to convince her In advance of the fact.
She is sure that she can do all these
things and not break down, which is
well nigh impossible.
The bride who hopes to be fresh and
rested when she starts on her honey
moon must not fatigue herself with
endless social activities The details
of the wedding. the notes that must
be written. the trousseau and the fur
nishings are all that she can safely
attend to-
1t is fortunate that large troussea u
no longer is considered smart" Fash
ions change rapidly that the well
dressed girl does not plan to have
more clothes than she can use comfort
ably during the coming season. She
does not WISH a trouSseau the main
factors of which she must remodel for
several seasons before they will be
worn out.
AS to the linen and lingeries of the
trousseau. however, the bride of mod
crate means will do well to lay in a
generous supply.
In household linen especially the
modern bride too often is inclined to
"skimp." She does not realize how her
interest in household affairs will m
crease when she has house of her
own. The bride who spends her money Y
freely for good linen and plenty of it
never will regret the outlay. The eX-
