CHAPTER VII.
Conficences-

That night Martha wrote letter.
During the writing of it she jumped
at every sound; footstep in the hall,
the shutting of door, a voice calling
In the street. And yet, Martha was
guilty OF performing only what she
considered to be her bounden duty.
My Dear Mr.. Arthur: do not
know what to make of it. His likeness to
you is the most unheard OF thing He Is
little bigger and broader and he wears
his beard longer. That's all the differ
ence. When he came on the boat tha.
night. it was like hand clutching at my
throat. And YOU know how romantic
Elsa is, for all she believes she is prosaic.
/ am certain that she sees you in this
stranger who calls himself Warrington.
II only you had had the foresight to fol-
low us, sailing or two later! And now
they'll be together for four or five days,
down to Singapore. / don't like It.
There's something uncanny in the thing
What IL she did forbid you to follow? !?
There are some promises women like men
TO break. You should have followed
Neither of us has the slightest idea
what the man has done to exile himself
in this horrible land for ten years He
sui penaVeS himSeif ike a gentleman,
and he must have been one in the past
But he has never spoken of his home,
of his past. of his people. We don't even
know that Warrington is his name. And
you know that's a sign that something Is
wrong. / wonder IL you have any rele-
tives by the name of Warrington? I be-
gin to see that mans face in my dreams
l am worried. For Elsa is a puzzle.
She has always been one to me. have
been with her since her babyhood. and
yet I know as little of what goes on in
her mind as a stranger would. Her IA
ther, you know. was a soldier, Of fierce
loves and hates; her mother was hand
some statue. Elsa has her fathers scorn
for convention and his independence,
clothed in her mothers impenetrable
mask. Don't mistake me. Elsa is the
most adorable creature to me- and wor-
ship her; but I worry about her. be-
lieve that II would be wise on your part
to meet us in San Francisco. Give my
love and respect to your dear beautiful
mother. And marry Elsa as fast as ever
you can.

warm. Elsa sat in a chair on the deck

Color in the Home

To-day we will think little about
color schemes, decorations and effective
combinations, along the lines suggested
yesterday.
There are now one hundred and fifty
new wall coverings on sale, some OF
these Gre in the form OF paint or eX-
ccedinSly fine kalsomine or wallboard,
and these bring handsome walls in the
reach of the poorest home. Ii the
walls have only been plastered they
ran. for little money, be made artistic.
But if you have the means there is no
limit TO the marvellous beauty You can
bring into houses.
Rooms so square and awkward they
bring resentment into ones mind at
fsst glance can be made to appear well,
shaped when correctly decorated. Color
changes the expression of a room as
Of ii. or too little, is like an inch too
much on the end OF your nose.
AS grace and beauty never change it
is worth while to strive for good eff
fectS. Let your walls and ceilings be
the first considerations; this includes
the woodwork of the rooms There are
delicate shades that the French call
Pastel eOlors that harmonize with any
thing, If you need more light in your
house YOU will find shades OF ivory,
cream, yellow. bronze. tans and coffee
browns that Offset one another. GRAY
ran be Sncwy-white blue gray or quaker

gray for background against which to
hang pictures. Greens are lovely in
shades of sage green to olive and on
to moss green. One of the spring
styles of wallpaper is called willow,
green. it is like velvet in its softness
of color.
In dark rooms the woodwork is usu-
ally enameled white, but the new way

WESLEY BARACA NOTES.

President Baldwin announces an
additional feature to the program
of the Baraca Glass for next Sunday.
Miss Regina Rambo has kindly con-
scented to give us a reading just af-
ter the Glass opening. 1t is very de-
sirable that everyone be in the class
room at ten o'clock as exercises begin
promptly at that time. Miss Rambo
will be followed by the Baraca Quar-
tette with a selection.
1t is with satisfaction that we note
steadily increasing attendance.
Mrs. Hamby's lessons are very in
spring, and their able presentation
makes it a pleasure to listen to them.
Master Rosser Little, Jr., is the
newest and youngest member of the
Glass, 1t is certain that he will grow
up with the Baraca spirit, as he has
the proper atmosphere for that.

There are strange things that some
times happen. Were you ever going
on a journey and met person and
on returning met them at the same
place, or were you ever going up one
fork of the road and a person COM

some other object get between you
and you not be able to see each other
on account of the object being kept
between you because you are NOV

1t would appear that the cotton
spectators of the U. S. and England
have combined in making cotton a
contraband of war, at this particular
time with view of getting cotton
at a reduced price. The cotton crop,
was sacrificed last year now, will
it have to be done again and the
South suffer? The president should
demand promptly that this contra
band be taken eff.
