Cyrilla was the dearest girl in the
world, but little cold-hearted. Fred
dy Broughton could not disguise that
fact from his knowledge. But he had
weighed 1t against her virtues when
he asked her to be his wife, and it did
not weigh a great deal.
Cyrilla Burns and Freddy had known
each other since they were tots. Their
families lived in one of those old-fash-
ioned city squares that are rapidly dis
appearing before the march of pro-
gress. Only a few of the old families
remained in the vicinity, and they
formed a sort of aristocracy Of birth,
though few of them had any money.
1t had always been understood that
Freddy and Cyrilla were to marry.
When Freddy came home from college
he looked at Cyrilla and wondered.
, Here he had been out in the world, as
it seemed to him, tasting the joys OF
emancipation, and Cyrilla was going
the same old round Of missionary
meetings, library committees and WIS.,
its among q select and exclusive old
fashioned set.
Yet Freddy was shrewd enough to
see that wife must be chosen for
her wearing qualities. And Cyrilla un-
doubtedly did wear we'll.
So it came about at the annual din
ner party that finding himself alone
with Cyrilla, Freddy took her hand in
his.
VIII you marry me soon, Cyrilla,
dear?" he asked.
YES" answered Cyrilla.

dy. Il love you well enough to look

Much Work to Make Helmet.

Sixty-four distinct operations are
necessary in turning out one of the
plain steel helmets worn by French
soldiers. The first step Is stamping
out disks from larke sheets of steel. A
special machine is used for this pur-
pose, exerting a pressure Of $50 tons,
and capable of cutting out 5000 steel
disks day. Each disk is placed under
a shaping machine, which presses the
disk into the form of helmet with a
broad rim. Polishing and cutting ma
chimes remove all irregularities in the
helmet, after which holes are punched
in the crown, some for ventilation pur-
poses, others for fastening on the regi-
mental crest. Each helmet is cleaned
and dipped in special mixture, which
makes it dull, inconspicuous blush
gray. A lining and leather chin straps
are then fastened on, and the helmet
is complete. Since the French army
has been protected with the helmets
the number of deaths due to wounds
in the head has decreased to remark
able extent.-Pearson Weekly.

forward to taking you into the world,

He stopped abruptly. 1t would never
do to let Cyrilla realize that he had
other views Of their future than living
on in the Square. And il a little
CLEAN came into Cyrilla's eyes Freddy
did not notice 1t.
They were to be married In early
autumn. That summer Cyrilla behaved
in an unprecedented manner; she ac-
cepted an invitation from friend to
spend week up-country.
Left to himself, Freddy pined in his
fathers law office. When his vacation
arrived he decided not to take one. He
was moping Somehow Cyrilla's let
ters seemed awfully cold. Did Cyrilla
love him we'll enough to become his
wife? That was the question he put to
himself.
mol" was the answer that his inner
consciousness thundered out one af-
ternoon. mo! And l am going to Of
fer her her freedom. And I am going
to break away"
He told his father that he would
take his vacation after all. He went
to the Catskills and selected little
hotel there filled with shopgirls and
young men from the stores at eight
dollars a week. And there he plunged,
with sense of awful wickedness, into
new life.
The region was simply dotted with
hotels. In every forest glade one came
upon spooning couples. On every lake
rang out the voices Of hilarious young
people. Freddy flung himself into it
all with zest. He made desperate love
to little girl who sold perfumery at
Stacey's, and had apparently abstract
ed a good deal of the stock to pour
over herself He spent the mornings
with her, the afternoons with ladies'
shoe department girl from Isaac and
Coppinway's, and the evenings he
strolled up and down with a waitress
from Mild s, and discussed the relative
advantages of the breakfast cereals
And he liked 1t. He was growing
more and more entranced with the
vulgarity Of it. He felt a regular Don
Juan, and when the hotel gave the an
nual masked ball and the carrousel
was set up Freddy was the gayest of
the gay.
He swung round giddily upon his
horse, side by side with a shrieking
young thing in black, whom he kept
