lie it?" asked Nell.
She asked the doctor about his con-
dition in great agitation"
That might have been a pose for
effect" interrupted Nell.
II ara sure 1t was not. Gaylord has
never liked her; thought her the most
impossible woman he ever saw; but
he said she was really very rauch
wrought up over MIR. Townsend's con-
dition. She followed him to the gate
and asked If he understood what was
said to him. Gaylord was very much
surprised and probably showed it In
his face, for she said:
You a e surprised that / am anx-
ious about him. / do not wonder I
deserve all you can think about me. but
save him till can show him that I am
not all bad; that l have a human side.
Gaylord says it is not all talk either;
she went right to work in the kitchen
and helped out in any way possible

"Oh, nothing but that she is human
and il a woman sees her failings and
sees what has been the result OF her
action she surely must have con-
science enough to be made very un-

Olive smiling.

ing. ! would hate TO think any woman
could cause as much pain as she has
and then be able to get off scot free
herself. she deserves to suffer"
If we all got our deserts, who would
escape whipping?" Olive smiled,
THAT is all very well to say, but you
know there is a vast difference between
making Mistakes when we are trying to
do what is right, and deliberately set
ting out to have what one wants no
matter who is injured in the process.
That was what she did, as near as
can make out" Nell had her sitting
| in judgment air on.
That's true enough, but l imagine
that anyone who had caused so much
trouble would suffer correspondingly;
and so l am sorry for her"
II doubt whether those people who
have made II a abit to trampie every
body into the earth II they happened to
be in the way; doubt, I say. whether
they are very thin skinned. They do
not seem TO think other people have

ing them, interrupted Olive.
Exactly"
Il have different theory. believe
we all get what we attract to us. Mrs.
Townsend has attracted vast deal Of
pain, am thinking, and I am sorry for
her."

PRESS COMMENT

saltwater Gazette.)


The frequency with which people
walking along public roads in the
country are killed or injured by auto
mobiles brings prominently forward
the necessity of provision being made
for the safety of these pedestrians
Public roads are constructed without
regard to the convenience of pedes-
TRANS, who are, as a rule, forced to
walk on the highway. There they are
in danger. in these times, from the rap
idly-moving automobiles which are
found on all roads. To escape these
autos. the pedestrians walk from one
side Of the roadway to the other, as the
occasion requires. Frequently autos
pass each other just where the people
are walking and this forces the people
into fence corners, or into bushes or to
the side of the road where there is TO
path. This is an injustice to these Pc
destrians and their rights should be
considered by the builders of the roads,
state. county and township. Paths
should be constructed in each side Of
the highway. There is no other means
of affording protection TO the people
and they are entitled to protection and
to safety.

The DisObedient WatcrdrOp Fairies

ONCE UPoN A TIME, in the middle "
the winter, seven little waterdiJp
fairies looked down on the earth and
wanted TO take trip.
I'm very tired of staying up here
I'm the clouds all the timei" sighed
one. Let's 60 down and visit the
EARTH
How can we?'' asked another.
Don't you remember that Jack Frost
warned US about staying up here?
That he told us he would freeze us
to death IL we so much as ventured
near the earth before MarchT"
TITS nearly March now" retorted
the first waterdrop fairy, "and any
way. ! doubt IL Jack Frost watches
every minute! / think we could go
down to the earth to-day, look
around and have a good little visit,
and then tomorrow, when the sun
comes out, we could 60 up on the first
golden ladder that is dropped down
to earth. Surely that is a fine plan!
Who wants to 90 alongg And do
you know? that impatient waterdrop
fairy didn't even wait to see If any
one answered! He just ran to the
edge OF the cloud, gave one look at
the tempting earth below and then
tumbled down through space! Think
of that
The six waterdrop fairies who
were left looked at each other inquir.

it's all right for him, I'll go tool"
"And / tool cried another.

others, till every one Of those six
waterdrop fairies, and many others
too, who were looking on, tumbled
or the cloud onto the earth belowi
But when they reached the earth
what do you suppose happened?
There was no nice dry ground to
welcome them-never a Bit There
were no swiftly flowing streams to
take them for ride! For the earth
was frozen! The ground was COW
cred with ice and snow: and the
streams were tucked up tight in their
covers OF ice.
