 "Our navy now has 14-inch guns; our coast defenses have 14-inch and 16-inch guns. We are adding to and we soon shall have 1S-inch and 20- inch guns. and perhaps even larger ones. There is no limit to the size that may be built

Why "Store New" Has a Peculiar 'Human Interest" all Its Own.

The usual news story tells of something which has happened. The news story contained in the store advertisement tells about something which IS going to happen. The usual news story may interest you little or much, according to the nature of the event. The store-news forecasts an event in which you are priviledged and invited to take part
 The event" may be a special clearance saIe an opening of new line of goods, the showing of novel fabrics or wearables. Whatever its particular nature, the store event has been planned for you. It is one, very often through which you are able to practice economical buying to secure the very latest thing in wearables or some novel utility.
 It may never happen that you will par licpate in all advertised store>events of any one day; but it ought never to happen that you miss all of them, either
 If you were to try to find and mark, in this newspaper. every item of news which interests you, you'd have to include a good many of the items appearing in the adver- tisements of the stores.

CHAPTER XIV.

That mystery about pianos which
troubled Bibbs had been a mystery to
Mr.. Vertrees, and it was being ex-
planned to him at about the time Bibbs
scrubbed the reference to it in his
notes. Mary had gone upstairs upon
Bibbs' departure at ten o'clock, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Vertrees sat until after
midnight in the library talking.
''She needn't to have done that about
her piano." vapored Mr.. Vertrees. eve
could have managed somehow without
1t. At least she ought to have consult
ed me, and If she insisted I could have
arranged the details with the-the
dealer"
"She thought that it might bean
noying for you," Mrs. Vertrees ex-
planned. Really, she planned for you
not to know about it until they had re-
mOved-until after tomorrow, that is,
but I decided TOTO mention it. You
see, she didn't even tell me about it I'M
til this morning. Sic has another idea,
too, I'm afraid. Its-ifs-"
"Well?" he urged, as she found 1t
difficult to go on.
Her other idea is-that is, it was
I think it can be avoided, of course
it was about her furs'
'Now he exclaimed, quickly 81
won't have it! You must see to that
I'd rather not talk to her about it, but
you mustn't let her"
'Tll try not" his wife promised
"She seems to be troubled about the

asked, and she MADE their siuT~pace
a little slower-they had only three
blocks to go.
whatever the word is. | only mean
that things don't look very sensible
now-especially to a man that wants
to keep out Of 'em and can't! Com
munismp Well! at least any decent
sport would say it's fair for all the
strong runners to start from the same
mark and give the weak ones a fair
distance ahead 50 that all can run
something like even on the stretch.
And wouldn't it be pleasant, really, if
they could all cross the winning line
together? Who really enjoys beating
anybody-if he sees the beaten mans
face? The only way we can enjoy get
ting ahead of other people nowadays
Is by forgetting what the other people
feel. And that" he added, sis nothing
Of what the music meant to me. You
see, if l keep talking about what it
didn't mean | can keep from telling
you what 1t did mean"
Didn't it mean courage to you, too
"a littlef' she asked Triumph and
praise were in it, and somehow those
things mean courage to me-"
yes, they were all there" Bibbs
said. Il don't know the name of what
ne played, but / shouldn't think it
would matter much The man that
makes the music must leave it to you
and what II can mean to you, and the
name he puts to it can't make much
difference-except to himself and peo-
pie very much like him, l suppose"
81 suppose that's true, though I'd
never thought Of 1t like that"
Il imagine music must make feel
tngs and paint pictures in the minds
of the people who hear It," Bibbs went
on, musingly, according to their own
natures as much as according to the
music Itself"
The musician might compose some
thing and play it, wanting you to think
of the Holy Grail, and some people
VINO heard II WI think OF a prayer
meeting. and some would think of how

Music can come into a blank life and
fill it, Everything that is beautiful is
music, if you can listen.
There is no gracefulness like that of a
graceful woman at grand piano, There
Is a swimming loveliness of line that
seems to merge with the running of the
sound, and you seem, as you watch her,
to see that you are hearing and to hear
what you are seeing.
There are women who make you think
Of pine woods coming down to sparkling
sea. The air about such a woman is brac-
ing, and when she is near you, you feel
strong and ambitious; you forget that
the world doesn't like you. You think
that perhaps you are a great fellow, after
ALL Then you come away and feel Ike
a boy who has fallen in love with his
Sunday school teacher. You'll be whipped
for it-and ought to be.
There are women who make you think
of Diana, crowned with the moon. But
they do not have the Greek profile" l
do not believe Helen of Troy had
Greek profile" they would not have
fought about her if her nose had been
quite that long. The Greek nose Is not
the adorable nose The adorable nose is
s-hfaIt eiRhfh of an inch shorter.
Much OF the music OF wagner, It ap-
pears, is not suitable to the piano. Wag-
ner was a composer who could interpret
into music such things as the primitive
impulses of humanity-he could have
made a machine shop into music But
not If he had to work in It, Wagner
was always dealing in imnlenslties-a ma
chine shop would have put a majestic
lump in SO grand a gizzard as that.
There is a mystery about pianos it
seems. Sometimes they have to be 'sent
away" That is how some people speak
Of the penitentiary. 'Sent away" is
euphuism for sent to prison" But pianos
are not sent to prison, and they are not
sent to the tuner-the tuner is sent to them.
Sometimes a glorious day shines into
the most ordinary and useless life. Hap
piness and beauty come caroling out Of
as If some stray angel just happened to
perch on the roof-tree, resting and sing
ing. And the night after such a day is
lustrous and splendid with the memory
of 1t. Music and beauty and kindness
those are the three greatest things God
can give US. To bring them all in one day
to one who expected nOthing-ahi the
heart that received them should be as
humble as it is thankful. But 1t is hard
to be humble when one is so rich with
new memories. 1t is impossible to be
humble after a day of glory.
Yes-the adorable nose is more than an
eighth Of an inch shorter than the Greek
nose. 1t is full quarter of an inch short
There are women who will be kinder
to a sick tramp than to a conquering hero.
But the sick tramp had better remem-
Der that's what he is Take care, take
care! HuEble's the word!

You mustn't be distressed about it
