A Couple of Hints

I send this after reading Williams let ter, as it may reach more invalids. If the young man will have his nurse sepa rate the magazine into parts he can read one article or story, thus having to hold only few pages at time. In this way all books are at his disposal I hitve been i'll myself for almost three years and should have missed lots of good reading except that a friend gave me this hint. So l pass it on. And now suple of hints for embroideries: The curved man. lcure shears are finer for cutting oval eyelets, and if cross stitch canvas is thor oughly dampened it will pull out 10 times more easily than when dry, and does not harm thu work. I hope this is not too long letter, as l want to express my appreciation of the Corner. I have had so many questions answered unasked that It seems to me a Constant Reader need never ask one. BESSIE M E."
 Other young men and even a larger number of older invalid reauers will thank you for the suggestion as to dividing magazines into portions. The periodical pamphlet of the day is bulky at best. It is an awkward burden for feeble wrists and tremulous hands. 'United' it is a labor to the reader; divided" it is pas time

 I listened, trying to distinguish the words uttered, but could make out nothing. They were moving slowly to- gether in close vicinity to myself, for their feet stirred the dry leaves, and I could hear the boughs cracking as they forced their way through them.
 or a sudden, while standing there not daring to breathe lest I should be- tray my presence, a strange sound fell upon my eager ears.
 Next moment realized that I was at that place where Leithcourt SO persist ently kept his disappointed tryst, hay ing approached 1t from within the wood
 The sound alarmed me, and yet it was neither an explosion of fire arms nor e startling cry for help.
 One word reached me in the dark ness--one single word of bitter and whitening reproach.
 Heedless of the risk l ran and the peril 10 which l exposed myself, cashed forward with a resolve to pene trate the mystery, until I came to the gap in the rough stone wall where LeithcouTt'5 habit was to halt each day at sundown.
 There, in the failing darkness, the sight that met my eyes at the spot held me rigid, appalled,, stupefed.
 In that instant l realized the truth a truth that was surely the strangest ever revealed to any man.
