than two January days like this. The predictions say warm tomorrow, fol- lowed by a drop in temperature In the second place I have a very import ant appointment with Fillmore the art editor of Sumter's Magazine, on Wednesday.
 "Oh,'' I could not conceal the re- sentiment felt at this injustice.t ,r.You expect me to break business engage ment when you would not do so?''
 My dear girl" Dicky's voice was patronizing as if he were trying to ex- plain things to child Considering that Fillmore throws about $3,000 worth of work year my way. I think I may be pardoned for con- sidering an appointment with him a trife more important than yours with Mrs. Smith,
 "The principle of the thing is the same." I insisted stanchly.
 "Oh, you and your principles" snarled Dicky. I'm getting eternally tired of hearing about them Any body would think to hear you that you had a patent on all the virtue and righteous dealing in the world. Come out of it. There's somebody in the world besides yourself, and your little two by four rules of right and wrong, although you'll never find it out.''
 He flung into his room, and came out again with his hat, overcoat and stick.
 Don't bother to sit up for me-" he said formally. "I'm going for a long walk, and I may be late.''
 I sat quietly as he had left me, for 8 long time. I could not feel that I uof not have turned out more miserably if I had deliberately disregarded the right course.
 The telephone bell rang loudly As I answered # Mrs. Smiths clear vibrant voice came to my ears.
 Mrs Graham? I wonder if it will inconvenience you greatly if I change our appointm for tomorrow. You said you had no especial engagement for this week, so I am venturing to ask you this favor. I had forgotten when made the appointment that to- morrow my masseuse is coming.'
 Any other day will suit me as we'll" I heard myself saying
 How sweet of you. What day?'
 'I will telephone you. What is your 
 Chelsea s7eo. You are sure this change will not inconvenience you?'
 Perfectly sure. Good-by."
 I hung up. the receiver with a feel ing of bitter anger against Mrs. Smith. had given up a delightful outing and antagonized my husband to keep an appointment with her, only to have her throw up the engagement for an appointment with a masseuse.
 What should I ever say to Dicky?

arrangement of this sort has worked perfectly, but I think they are the exception rather than, the rule. We often wonder at the fact that we per init ourselves to blow off our irrita- ton to and find fault with our own home folks, whereas we maintain our politeness and self-controled with out siders It is indeed sad that we should permit ourselves to hurt those whom VI really love the best, but wonder if this does not explain why we cannot live with outsiders? We never speak our minds to them, we never blow off our irritation throuT the safety valve of a quickly re- pented burst of temper and lacking this safety valve, the whole struc- ture of our relationship tes to pieces some fine day.
 Flush Of Temper A Safety Valve.
 Of course, it's rather sad thought that we should need such a safety valve, and of course We ought to con-, tinually fight the tendency to use it, but after all when you consider that every human beings most primitive and naturally dominant instinct is the desire for his own happiness, is it not wonderful that We get along with each other as well as we do?
 Why, just think. the altruistic in- stinct, which in the D litive human being could scarcely have existed at all, has gro".r so common and so strong that again and again one finds people in whom it has outstrip- ped the desire for personal happiness. In the face of that, who, can dare say that the old world is not grow ing better and indefinitely better?
 As Beatrice Harraden puts it per haps He who made us twill be astonished not because we are pot better, but becauseo we are not worse."

ANIMALS CANNOT GROSS
 BOUNDARY IN YUKON

Considerable trouble was created at the Yukon boundary recently by the order relative to the importation of animals into the territory, and even dogs were stopped for time, but later were allowed to proceed on strength of an order issued at Ottawa on application of Dr. Alfred Thomp- son, member for that territory. Tom Aiken, the well-known mining man or Fairbanks and Iditarod, was one of the victims of this order. his dogs being sent back from the Yukon terri tory simply because they were trans ported into Yukon from Alaska, which is owned by the United States, where foot and mouth diseases exist.
 A wire was sent to Ottawa by Aitken, and wire from Ottawa to the authorities at Whitehorse ordered the dogs released, which order was obeyed and Aitken left for for Dawson, his dogs hitehed a la Labrador.

CARD OF THANKS DECLINED WITH
 I H A N K $

The editor of the Whitehorse Star publishes the following truism in his stroller" column:
 If there is a newspaper man living who does not detest the combination of words Cards of Thanks" the Stroller has never met him. If he lives, he is an exception and is in a class by him. self.
 Some mothus ago the Stroller re- produced from a southern publication an article concerning cards of thanks. The substance of the article was sug. gestion that, if you live in a neigh borhood where the people expect to be thanked through the columns of a for every act of kindness performed, you had better move to some other locality. But only those who wish to advertise their charity care for public thanks. Ninetenths of the people do not wish to be publicly thanked-are bored when they are. When people do what they consider is a duty, they do it as duty and from kindly motives, not for thanks through the columns of a newspaper. Let us suppose a case.

OUR CRY!
BY JANE whitaker

Say not it was the hand of God,
Who moves in mercy to protect;
Mans greed alone hath raised the rod,
Greed that no pleas Of~ours have
checked.
You mourn our dead with Judas lies,
Jingling the price at which you sold
Each silent form with CLASSY eyes,
Lying as close as space will hold.
We cry that justice shall be ours,
We, who through empty years must
grieVe..
What is your answer, ye, the Powers,
viii you continue to deceive?
