Nell sadly. 81 tell you, she's to be

"Well, if my lady thinks she can

The maid came into the dining
room to lay the cloth for dinner as
Olive delivered this speech with ap-
propriate gestures.
"Well have the Parsons and the
doctor and his sister over to dinner

The Unknown God.

The Unknown God.
I built of dreams a temple cool and
white
I shut from humap sight its halls
untrod,
And kindled me q small, expectant
light
Upon an altar to the unknown god
But in my folly was not content
To wait his coming by the perfumed
flame;
vainly to seek him in the world
went.
That in my worship l might SPEAK
his name.
When to my temple crept home at
last,
Marred was its beauty-soiled and
smeared with clay
Where feet profane the unguarded
door had passed
And the untended fire in ashes lay.
Now to the Road the door stands open
And cuts the darkness with a sword
of light,
That weary wayfarers may turn aside
And find within lodging for the
night.
The altar-fire glows generous and
warm;
And even now a pilgrim, leaden
shod
With WEAKNESS, takes refuge from the
storm.
Lo, in his temple stands the un-
known god.-Amelia Josephine
Burr. In Everybody's.

Perhaps the most picturesque work
of the secret service is performed by
it's flying sluadron"-the freelance
field workers, who may be sent to any
place at any time. Most of these men
are not much above so years of age;
the average age oe all secret service
men is under 35. They are alert. en-

ed to the rank of operative at IS day.
AS an operative his pay may increase
to 81 day, but before he can obtain
the top notch salary he must have
made good and have acquired a con.
siderable fund of practical experience
valuable to the service.

CLOSE PACKING BEST

Most people are afraid of crushing
their clothes by packing them too
tightly, yet this is the secret of sue
cessful packing. If they are allowed
room to slide and slip, they will
come forth wrinkled and mussed,
whereas, if they are firmly held in
place in trunk which is not too
large for its contents you will get
far better results.
