| WIG IN THE WIND By cATHARINE cRANMER.


 AS for being on friendly terms with Mr. Gray, l know of no reason why l shouldn't be friendly with him, for be is as truly a gentleman as any man know"
 Grace gave the open car more speed and drop of rain in Mrs. Allison Dodge's face cut short her reply to her nieces spirited speech. The clouds darkened. the wind became stronger, and that first drop of rain was followed by other scattered drops. The rock road was now in sight.
 A hurried glance over her shoulder showed Grace a covered car approach ing from behind. About half a mile after they struck the rock road they came to blacksmith shop and gener- al store just as the rain began to come down in driving sheets. With out waiting for permission, Grace ran her car under the shed, and few min utes later the covered car drew up on the sheltered side of the shop. It proved to be 1itney in which Ashby Gray had started back to the city. Seeing Mrs. Allison-D Dodge in dismay and her niece vainly trying to soothe her. Ashby Gray defied the rain and dashed from the jitney to the shed, offering any assistance possible.
 In her agitation to see whether the storm promised to abate, Mrs. Allison Dodge lifted her veil to peer at the clouds. A sudden twisting wind swept veil and hat and even the soft white hair from her head. She cried out and grabbed wildly at the moving mass of chiffon and lace and hair, but the wind tangled, and the lady renowned for her soft white hair and lovely skin stood revealed with a tiny pigtail of gray hair in which streak of faded brown still showed.
 Grace stood as astounded as Ashby Gray, for she had not known that her aunt wore wig. Except for one dis erect hairdresser there was perhaps ndche who suspected that the gradual whitening process through which her hair had passed was but the adoption of series of wigs. each one whiter than it's predecessor. After . speech less interval which seemed ages to all three, Grace managed to help adjust the mass of head covering.
 Aunt Clara" began Grace, mo- ment afterward, "Mr Gray says it will take an hour to run back to town with the roads as wet as they are, and don't you think you'd better let him take you on in his covered car now and let me come on later when the rain stops?"
 Something told Mrs. Allison Dodge that this was no time to harbor prej- udice against would-be suitors for her

Why Not a Half Nickel? New Coin Might Help Keep
 The Cost of Living Down

The ham sandwich, which was once five cents, now frequently costs a dime. The same disturbing truth ap- plies to other things in common life, both inside and outside of lunchrooms. There is no need of statistics from economists to inform us that the cost of living has advanced. Every spend- CT of money knows 1t. Retailers are more reluctant to put prices up than is generally realized. They know that consumption decreases as prices ad- vance. That means less business and profits depend partly on large busi- ness. When more than traffic will bear Is charged the traffic falls off.
 Change making is one of the items in up-to-date retailing. It must be done quickly If expenses are to be kept down. The young woman at the lunch room desk has not time to count pen nies. She must deal in nickels, dimes and quarters if she is to maintain her astonishing speed and accuracy.
 We need another coin. Three-cent pieces were confused with dimes and were hard to use, because they were

niece's hand Besides, and most of all, she wanted to get home and have in masseuse and that discreet hair dresser and several O r people to repair her in time for the evening. She was half inclined to assent to Grays suggestion that she ride home in the closed jitney.
 Hurry up, Ashby," called Gray's companion from the jitney, I've got two assignments waiting for me in town"
 But the name of Ashby had struck pleasantly on Mrs. Allison-Dodge's aristocratic ear.
 Did he call you Ashby? I thought your name was Gray" She looked in- quiringly at Gray as Grace buttoned the final button on the rain coat she had taken from her own shoulders to place upon her aunt.
 "Ashby Cray" corrected Gray, and by way of further explanation, added: "Ashby was my mothers maiden name"
 You don't mean that your mother was Amy Ashby who married Dr. We'll ington Gray. the Boston clergyman?
 Yes" smiled Gray, as the lady's manner melted into effusiveness
 Five minutes later Mrs. Allison Dodge was speeding alone toward the city to be let out at the fashionable Aihambra from an ordinary jitney. It suddenly occurred to Grace that Ashby might have given up important work to remain there with her.
 T feel that I've no right to accept such sacrifice from you, MT Gray, and if it's important for you to be back in town soon, don't let's wait an- other minute on account of the rain shan't mind how wet get, for haven't any rheumatism. and" she met his smiling eyes with a frankly amused smile. T haven't any wig
 You don't have to tell me that" he said laughingly, as he looked admir- ingly at the bronze-colored mass of hair which the dampness had dark ened from bright copper color and had kinked each loose lock into 8 tight curl.
 Poor Aunt Clara; she'd never hint ed wig, and what is more, she never will. I'm glad she made friends with you before leaving for now she will feel that her secret is in the hands of friends only. and" Grace hesitated and Ashby added: And therefore quite safe."
 Grace telephoned her aunt as soon as she arrived at home.
 I'm home all safe, Aunt Clara; I thought you'd like to know
 I'm delighted. dearie; and where is that nice MT. Gravy"
 Hes gone home to dry, but he's coming out this eevning."
 Bring him over to call on me, won't you?"
 If it clears up, maybe: but there will be lots of other opportunities, Aunt Clara. for he is going to be your nephew"

Eight of them make A cents, but the coin almost corresponding is worth one cent more. If three-cent pieces were again issued they would not fill the bill.

SMALL MARVEL OF THE SEA
Worms Work Seems Almost to Prove 1t Is Equipped With Something
 Like Intelligence.

The question of where intelligence begins to manifest itself in the scale of animal life has often been asked. It seems to exist even in the lowest forms. 4 peculiar specimen Of the in verterbrates of the ocean, an exceed ingly small worm--sO small that it measures less than four milllmeters in iength-exhibits movements that can not be explained by anything but in- telligent will.
 This midget seawOrm is construct or; he builds rampant in the shape of tube, composed of grains of sand. His form shows hanging double lip jutting like fleshy precipice over a great mouth, four black eyes set in the front of his head and two tentacles which work necessarily. wringing and flashing whatever they can reach. It is with the same apparently nervous ten tacles that the little monster of the deep seizes his material, the glisten- ing sand of which he constructs his rampant.
 He catches a grain of sand in his tentacles and immediately carries 1t to his mouth. In his mouth nature se- cretes strong cement. One grain after another Is covered with cement and rapidly accumulated i'll the form of tube. Naturally enough, when the builder works so fast, there must be breaches in the walls. These breaches are carefully scrutinized by the worm, filled with grains of sand and covered with cement. When fin- ished. the tube is very practical and creditable piece of work.
 Nothing could be more interesting than the little workman's management of his tentacles. Again and again he tests the solidity of his work by tap ping the walls in every direction. To observe the work of this peculiar sea- pigmy is to be convinced that the tube like rampant is not built by accident. In such work there must be the par ticipation of some sort of mentality.

Food for the Youna.

Whey has been proved to be valu- able food. In many cases where the milk disagrees with the baby the use of whey has saved it's life. Whey may be made artificially by adding a junket tablet to a quart of luke warm milk. Heat the milk until it is just warm, add the tablet, dissolved in a table spoonful of water, and stir well to mix, then set it aside in a warm place for the milk to jeil. Break up the curd with spoon and strain of the whey. Serve either hot or cold with or with out sweetening when served to an adult. When served to baby the pro- portions should be carefully given by a doctors orders.

Whole Wheat Foods.

A grain of wheat contains 16 ele- ments and these same substances or clements are found in the body. That Is the reason why whole wheat foods are so good for the children. Take good clean wheat, wash and put to soak over night. then cook in doulfle boiler or in fireless cooker until the grains are soft. Serve with thin cream or top milk with or without sugar and your child has a we'll balanced meal, satisfying and sppetizing.

Nutrition and malnutrition are among the most important subjects with which mother has to deal. A growing child usually needs more food than his parents. Some of the causes of nalnutrition are lack of the right kind or sufficient food, lack of fresh air and improper mastication.

denly saw the lips of Louise tremble.
lmpulsively she laid her hand on Louise's
shoulder.
IL know" she said quickly. "The old
gosslps have told me. Poor Louise! Poor
Walter! But it will all come right, | know.
Remember, I'm here, and I'm going to
help you"
"Well, Kate said Louise, when she
had recovered her equipoise, you've
come at an exciting time. Have you
heard about-last night and everything?
And about this man Starr-and what he
and Joel are doing? But it's mostly MIR.
Starr, guess"
"He must be wonderful. I've simply
got to meet him." said Miss Burbridge
emphatically.
"He may be wonderful, replied Louise,
with a tinge of bitterness, "but | wish
he'd stayed at home. Perhaps oughtn't
to say that, though. OF course, it isn't
his fault. But I'm not going to talk of
that. l mustn't. Have you heard about
the program for the celebration? They
say it's the biggest thing ever attempted
for a small place in the State whole
week of Carnival, -Merchants Carnival,
they call it,-and an Old Home Week, to
which all old residents are invited home.
And the first old resident that gets here
next Monday morning is going to be met
at the station and escorted to the hotel,
and given the freedom of the town, what
ever that is, and put up at the hotel at
the towns expense.
"And then, Henry Treadway the edi-

in Boxton. Whoever gets the most votes
is elected King of the Carnival, and has
a right to choose his Queen for the parade,

the parade. Yes, you came just in time
"Tell me, LOU" Katherine whispered
suddenly into her companions ear, ais
Walter really so nice?7 ....
Louise Searles swept the others cheek
with butterfly kiss before she answered.
Hes little bit vain" she said Judi
cially, land he's too everlasting proper
and conventional; and when he's with
me he's apt to be stupid; but"
"You don't have to tell me, Lou. He
is nice. If he weren't, you wouldn't
take the trouble to pick out the de-
fects.'
Louise suddenly gave her friend
great squeeze and exclaimed: "I'm so
fond of you, Katherine!
"Lou,' said Miss Burbridge, becoming
strangely serious, "listen. Do you know
why | say mean things to those women?
Really, Lou, that isn't me at all. I'm
foolishly good-natured. But cant help
remembering that years ago"

ME next morning news was be-
ing industriously circulated that
Ezra and Lyddy Nudge had quit
Il BOyton on the "Sleeper" Mt mid

L. Boxton on the sleeper" at mid
night. Louise, they said, had been left
behind, and had gone over to stay at DR..
Crumbs.
"Well, Ezra turned tail and run" was
Joel Tibb's satisfied verdict.
But J. Bradlee Starr shook his head.
II wouldn't jump at conclusions he
warned. "There's a lot of fight in that
old hide yet. We don't know what he's
got up his sleeve
1t was true that Ezra and Aunt Lyddy
had gone. Only one person in Boxton
knew why or where, and that was Louise
And Louise, weak and dizzy and full of
foreboding, was sitting in her room over
at the doctors, that next morning, when
the door opened and her old friend and
playmate, Katherine Burbridge, burst in,
. flew to her, and, putting her arms around
the other girls neck, gave her a hearty
hug.
Gown up, Lou!" cried the visitor,
"you're surprised"

smile of pleasure. "How in the world
did you get up here? | thought you

ats more fun to come here. Lou" she
answered Il LIKE like to taunt these
people in Boxton. l like to gloat little,
as they did once over me-.
ONCE every summer katherine Bur-
" bridge, now New Yorker but once of
Boxton, came back to awe and discomfit
her former acquaintance.
Her people had been miseraby poor
up to the time Katherine was seventeen
years old. 1t was true, as some of her
Boxton friends pleasantly asserted, that
she had gone barefoot for want of shoes,
and had regularly driven the cows home
from pasture at night when the late Mr.
Burbridge had gone too deeply into the
mysteries of the fermentation of apple
juice. But things had radically changed
since those lean days. Mr.. Burbridge,
after long and violent spree, had
stepped out" as they say in Boxton;
and long-forgotten brother of Mrs.
Burbridge had stepped in" from the
Canadian Northwest, after period of
successful land speculation.
That was the end of bare feet for
Katherine. Since then she had been in
Europe, had been diligently subjected to
process of cultivation by music teachers,
dancing teachers, language teachers, and
dressmakers, and was finally able to re-
turn to BoXton and gaze serenely upon the
scenes OF her youth through lorgnette.
Now, as she chartered gaiIy on about
