THE PUBLIC SENSE
 OF NEATNESS

There are many people who are thoughtful for the appearance of their own home places, yet who are absolutely careless as to the general appearance of their town. Comparatively few persons, who have any sense of cleanliness at all, would litter up their own home grounds by throwing refuse Of the windows. Yet the same people will scatter paper bags and other waste 1 matter about the streets of their town. Then they complain against the local | officers if the place is not kept in a. neat condition.
 Most people also feel some pride about keeping up home places. They will take pains not to run over grass bankings, and will scrupuIously fol- low paths. But when they go down town they will cut corners, gradually wearing down plots of grass, and give the town an unfinished and run down air. No matter how much money a town spends to keep it's public ways neat and tidy appearance unless it's citizens cooperate.
 People should feel positive1 sense of shame in throwing away anything that would make their streets look unattractive.
 In some places boys and girls are trained to pick up waste paper that l is flying about the streets With a l lot of youngsters active in that way, not merely to remove evidences of 1 other peoples disorder, but not to
 make any of their own, it is astonish- ing how a towns appearance can be
 transformed.
 | Allowing public streets to remain
 in g. disorder1y condition must hurt
 the reputation of a town. In these days of automobiles a, town receives
 visitors constantly from far and near. Residents of other cities come in a critical spirit. They are quick to sec evidences of public disorder. and they
 bear away the news that this or that l town is dirty.
 l Spring is the time for cleaning up.

WOMEN AND
 MEN AS BUYERS

l. A
 It is generally admitted that wo- men buy closer than men do. They haEve q keen sense of values in house. hold furn1ghingH, clothing, and food supplies. The family where the wo- man does the buying usually lives cheaper than the home with a man as purchaser.
 One principal reason for this con- trast is that women read newspaper advertising so very closely. While the men are reading baseball or politics, the women are after the store news They examine 1t thoroughly and any announcement of special values, bar gain sales, odd lots, closing out sales, is studied word for word.
 After a woman has looked over the nevspapers and starts on a shopping expedition. she knows pretty nearly what she wants. She passes the non- advertising store feeling that if it had wanted her trade or had anything to offer Of special interest, it would have

CHAPTER XVIII. 1 Traverae the Night.

} t @AHE next day I was very busy,
 preparing for the journey by
 motor to the small station
 down the line where I was to meet Mrs. Titus and her sons. It seemed to me that every one who knew anything whatever about tue arrange ments went out of his way to i'll my already rattled brained head with ad- vice.
 Just before leaving the castle for the ferry trip across the river that evening I was considerably surprised to have at least a dozen brand new trunks delivered at my landing stage It is needless to say that they turned out to be the property Of Mrs Titus, expressed by grande vitesse from some vague city in the north of Germany. They all bore the name Smart, U. s. A.,'' painted in large white letters on each end and was given to under stand that they belonged to my own dear mother, who at that moment, l am convinced, was sitting down to luncheon in the Adirondacks, provided her habits were as regular as re- membered them to be.
 set forth with Britton at 9 o'clock in a drizzling rain. At half past Il o'clock we were slidding over the cob blestones of the darkest streets have ever known, careening like drunken sailor, but not half as surely, headed for the Staatsbahmhof, to which we had been directed by an object in a rafncoat who must have been a po- Iiceman, but who looked more like a hydrant. It was pouring pitchforks.
 HBritton,'' said weariIy thave you .,s-r1,,rs sseS<a., oTru+hir1ep 1iTxa if F' 'sOnce before, s1r.''' said he Nj agara falls, sir"
 At half past 12 the train from Munich drew up at the station, panted awhile in evident disdain and then moved on.
 A single passenger alighted-a man with bass viol There was no sign of the Tftuses!
 We made a careful and extensive search of the station, the platform and even the surrounding neighborhood, but it was quite evident that they had not left the train. Here was a pretty pass! Britton, however, had the rather preposterous idea that there might be another train a little later on. It did not seem at all likely, but we made inquiries of the station agent. To my surprise-and to Britton's internal Brit ish deIight-there was a fast train, with connections from the north, ar irving in half an hour. It was, how ever, late, owing to the storm
 Just ten minutes before 8 the oblig- ing guard came in and reused us from a mild sleep.

 "But neglected to mention that it is an express and never stops here.''
 My right hand was still in a bandage, but it was so nearly healed that I could have used it without discomfort note my ability to drive motorcar- and it was with the greatest difficulty that I restrained a mad impulse to strike that guard full upon the nose, from which the raindrops coursed in an interrupted descent from the visor of his cap

'tIf by tricks you should capture a
 heart,
 With a womanly softness about it,
 Will you guard it and keep it and act the good part?
 Well, may be you will. but doubt
 it.
 Of course it is but natural that girls | with the bounding red blood of youth in their veins and life in every limb called pleasure, but even joy should have a curb upon it and a certain line drawn at which it must halt. Girls who give ak of their days to toll should not be denied happy even ings, either at home or with their chO- denies 9 daughter this pleasure be- cause she does not know how to dis miss her young friends tactfu1lyl when she is hostess at the proper hour, or, worse still, when she is out among friends does not realize that she should be safely at home in her bed taking her beauty sleep when she sees the hands of the clock creeping toward the
 midnight hour.
 Girls should not be censured too se- verely and mothers should remember how fond they we're of pleasure when time was young with them. When young folks are having a. good time how can they be expected to keep one eye on the clock to note the flight of the hours? Ut is the girl who must make her way home alone who is men aced by the graveSt dange-by being out when she should have been in She may have but a short way to go but even at her own doorstep she may meet with harm. Late at might the streets are infested with the class of men who have little or no respect for girls who hurry past thern-unescort- ed--alone-trusting to their own abiI- ity to take care of themselves. Many a girl as honest and good as she was fair has suddenly disappeared, her fate one Of the a1nsolved mysteries of habit she had contracted of staying out too late while visiting friends or at tending gatherings or places of anuse- ment, knowing she. would have to re- turn home alone unprotected.

Neighbors take mo- Clce, Deg1n to comment on the late hours the girl keeps and from that gossip soon gets busy with her fair name. It does not take long by such methods to tear the best of reputa- tions into shrads.
 If a girl once gets a bad name in this respect, mothers will prevent their sons from forming her aequaint- ance, if it be within their power. Even her girl friends will fail her, dropping her altogether on general principles without stopping to consider that it was themselves who led her into the temptation of staying at their homes, urging her to remain yet little longer, though the hour was late.
 Pleasures are sweet while we are en- toying them, but there are those which may turn into scourges to lash us later on. Staying out late at night heads the list.

IF THERE IS A
 HAPPY MAKING-UP

Dear Miss Libbey:- Four years ago I met a beautiful, girl. Shortly after our acquaintance and after a good understanding we pledged our lives to one another. Both have remained true and sincere to our pledge. I love her more than my life She claims no one could ever take my. place with her. A few days ago i'm. agfned she was cold dand indifferent toward me. I reproached her as I wrote to her. am convinced in my heart have hurt her feelings. It has made me very miserable Realizing my error, I wrote again acknowledg- ing my wrong, begging her to forgive a moment of bad humor and dnag1na.- ton. Strenuous efforts [ made failed to reach her heart. It is nearly a, unable to obtain even an interview. cannot believe that she has withdrawn. her love and directions for me. I know her sincerity; know also that God has never created a nobler woman, yet her attitude is puzzNng and painful I have acted honorably toward her. Am IT not entitled at least to an interview if not forgfveness2 What must I do to reach her and regain her love?
 D.GJ
 ssr1ne course of true love never runs smooth.,' Yet following this old say ing we are to hope in the belief that all is well that ends well. Her time may be taken up in the clubs and charities where girls are constantly engaged She may have been a. little ''nfffed'' and waiting for you to re- feet how hard reproach was if she is somewhat sensitive. Do not despair. Write. be deferenttaI and soon there should be 9 happy making up.
