rumbled Judge Owl.
"Of course he is," answered Peggy
"And isn't he a wise man?" Judge
Owl blinked sagely at her.
Hes the wisest man in the whole
world" declared Peggy proudly.
"Then that settles it. You are a
princess" affirmed Judge Owl. "Be
seated your majesty"
As Peggy sank down on the floral
throne all the birds bowed in homage
the Woodpecker handed Judge Owl a
crown of leaves which he placed on
Peggy's curls.
I'VE crown you Princess of Bird
land" he announced pompously.
Hail, Princessr chanted all the
birds bobbing up and down.
"Oh, thank you" cried Peggy, deli
cious thrills of pleasure running
through her heart.
Don't thank us. We will thank
you when you rescue Birdland from
the clutches of the Giant of the
Wood" said Judge Owl.
RESCUE Birdlandl Oh, how can ?"
asked Peggy in sudden dismay, as she
awakened to the fact that royal hon
ors bring royal duties and royal wor-
ries.
"You know best, our wise little prin-
cess" chanted the birds.
,,k I d~afk xhss.

The birds looked at each other in a
hurt and puzzled way. Peggy felt
that she was disappointing them.
Presently the ,Woodpecker spoke up.

Giant Of the Woods 10 q monster who
has turned this beautiful forest into
a garden of grief. He has killed
scores of birds and made hundreds of
others captive. All of US here mourn
some dear relative or friend who has
fallen victim to his cruelty"
All the birds were sobbing softly
now. Tears came rushing to Peggy's
eyes. A solemn stiffness filled the
glade.
At that moment a shrill shrek of
alarm broke the silence. 1t came
from nearby within the forest. An
other followed and another. The
birds in frenzy of fear scattered to
right and left. Peggy. startled and
frightened, rose shivering to her feet.

rescues one victim from tho Giant Of the

Secret Marriage
Always a Mistake
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

The trial Of = young dentist in
Richmond, Va, for the murder of his
wife, recalls long list Of calamities
following in the wake Of such clan
destine affairs.
One is tempted to ask if for any
reason it is ever wise for a girl to
conceal her marriage? Granted
there may be difficulties in the way
of the young couple carrying openly
and above board, it is more sensible
for them to defer the ceremony un-
til it can be performed candidly and
with dignity.
Some Of the excuses, such as we
could not afford a big wedding, are
too absurd to discuss. A girl is not
marrying the world, nor her friends,
nor . white satin gown, nor a point
lace veil, nor five bridesmaids,
dressed in shades of the rainbow,
nor anything else but the man of
her choice.
There is no occasion at all for
wedding fncry. 1t is perfectly dig
nihed for girl to be married in
church or at home with no one but
couple Of witnesses present. And
with equal dignity she may wear
what used to be known in her
mothers day, as ones best dress"
Giving Up a Position.
If it is question of money and the
girl has a feeling that she cannot
give up her position to marry, mod
ern common sense recognizes the
wisdom of her keeping on with
her "job" if it is necessary.
Particularly during these busy
war times, necessity has made many
married women go to work, and
where there are no exacting duties
at home, it is all the more to their
credit.
A short-sighted policy once re-
quired woman to resign a position
as a school teacher or a government
clerk when she married; but now,
in the case of the school teacher, at
least, a more liberal point of view
sanctions her wedding if she an
nounces it.
Display is never necessary in the
case of a wedding, though a digni-
fed announcement, in the long run,
will be better for all parties con
cerned.
In normal circumstances, young
man in love is only too anxious to
proclaim the perfections Of his lady
fair from the housetops to the
boredom Of friend and foe alike,
and when this delightful gushing
into words is absent, there must be
some reason not wholly to the
young mans credit.
When a young man begins to
plead for a clendestine marriage it
is we'll for the girl to be equally
positive in her refusal. If he is
ashamed to admit his marriage, his
attitude toward his prospective bride
is, at least, unaattering.
Case Of Young Dentist.
This appears to have been the case
with the young dentist now on trial
for his life at Richmond, who it seems
was in love with another girl during
the entire period of his courtship and
marriage to his wife.
This brings up the extremely inter-
esting question: MAY man be in
love with two women at the same
timer"
History would seem to prove that
this may be true. There was the re-
markable and never understood case
of Dean Swift, the brilliant English
satirist and man of letters, and his
love for the two women who figured
in his life as Stella" and "Vanessa."
Both women were devotedly in
love with the eccentric author of
"Gulliver's Travels" and when Va
nessa could no longer stand the strain
of the uncertainty, and wrote to her
rival for an explanation. Swift. into

Your House in Summer

A few more weeks and the shops
will be gay with displays Of summer
furnishings, and the magazines will
be full of new ideas and the seasons
latest styles for country houses. But
what of the ninety and nine who have
no country house for occupancy half
the year? What of those who have
not even a tiny bungalow by noun
tainside or sea? And certainly, with
most of us, it is one and the same
house twelve months of the year.
The question of timely Importance
then, is, "How can we make of it a
summer home when summer days
Gomez"
For there Is no good reason why,
because we must live under the same
roof month in and month out, we need
live in exactly the same environment,
amid precisely the same surroundings,
winter and summer alike. A change
in the furnishing and general ap-
pearance of rooms with the advent of
spring is as welcome and refreshing
as the fresh green of the grass and
trees, and often no less beneficial than
that change Of air which the doctors
tell US is 50 necessary once in awhile
for our well-being. And just as
home cooking tastes better when we
come back to it after few weeks of
hotel life, or the comforts of home are
better appreciated after we have laid
them aside for a time. so even our
favorite furnishings will look better,
ever so much better, in the autumn if
we will put them for a little while in
hummer dress of linen or chintz.
It often happens that . room thus
decked out in cretonne or linen prints
Is more attractive than at any other
time of the year; perhaps because of
Its gaiety, perhaps because Of the uni
tornity of idea.

loudly and at last uproariously. AS
a mirth-provoking vehicle it fulflls
Its mission in no uncertain manner.
1t is as sweet as a honeysuckle and

is refined humor all the time, and if
you want to be entertained
In way that will be more pleasing

for many a day "Charley's Aunt" will
come nearest to what you are look
ing for, and whether you come pre-
pared to laugh or you come undecided
will make no difference after you
once get to the Palace theater. The
comedy is said to be so we'll por-
