REVELATIONS OLA WIFE

our original appointment on q most
trivial pretext
THE LUNCHEON ORDER
She picked up the menu card
and opening a beautiful jewelled
lorgnette scanned the items through
it. / had TO admit that she was a
stunning woman. tall, stately. gray
haired with eyes and complexion
that many a girl might envy. She
was exquisitely dressed. too. quiet
~. in street costume but every de-
tail OF her gowning spelled not only
wealth but refinement.
Let me see. this is Wednesday
she said. turning TO the back of the
ca I'd where a list Of specialues
se-ved on different days was given.
This is the day on which they
serve fish in shells. Their devilled
crab meat Is delicious. Would you
like 10 try it,"
Her manner said in effect: Il am
going TO order crab meat If you
do not wish any, it shows your
ignorance" / do not suppose she
meant 20 be rude or to- neglect con-
sulting nv preference as TO the
menu. But 1 could see tina she had
been dictator among women so
long that the habit of taking things
into her own hands chung TO her
even when she was unaware OF it.
Il am very fond of devilled crab
meat" L returned If you can
recommend this l shall be very glad
to try it, But / do not wish any
thing else save a cup of tea, or,
think l will take coffee with the fish.
I lunched before leaving home"
Very we'll" Then TO the wait
ress: Two orders of devilled crab
meat in shells, one order of French
fried potatoes. one order of that
salad of asparagus tips you gave me
the other day. remember She
shot the question at the girl as if it
had been a bullet.
Perfectly. madam"
Then two orders of those crisp
little tea rolls, two pots of coffee,
and-Tll decide upon my dessert
later. Will you have the order hur-
ried?"
III do my best" The young
woman vanished into door under
meath the old staircase. Ny eyes
followed her with pleasure. She
was so quiet, so efficient, so good to
look upon that 1 felt the little res
taurant was to be congratulated up
on having her.
Mrs. Smiths eyes followed mine.
She's quite unusual" she said,
answering my Unspoken thought.
''Fancies herself a bit above her
station. L imagine. but she doesn't
let it interfere with her work"

HINTS TO THE SPRING GAR

An effective method of Kidding a
lawn of dandelions is to go over the
yard and put a drop Of sulphuric
acid from a medicine dropper into
the heart of each dandelion plant,
being careful not TO touch the sur
rounding grass with it. One drop
will be sufficient to cause the death
of the roots of a small plant, but
large plants Of old growth may
need a second application.
Make your plan for your flower

harmony, hut don't let it worry you
toe much; for, if you avoid the
magenta shades and use plenty Of
white between the other colors. the
result will be harmonious. There

ThankfuIness in the Old Or
Chard.

Farmer Browns Boy was up and out
early that morning after the ice storm
1t was a very, very beautiful world that
greeted him as he opened the back door
and looked out at the Old Orchard and
across to the Green Forest. Unlike Wei
come and Mrs. Robin and others. he could
see the beauty of it. He drew long
breath of the clear, cold air and with
shining eyes he watched the millions of
sparkling diamonds made by the Jolly
Little Sunbeams as they touched the ice
covered twigs and grasses and even the
crust which covered the snow on the
ground. Wherever they touched there was
a flash as if from a real diamond.
But it was only for a few minutes that
.riration of the lovely scene. Then a
shadow clouded his face. This Is beau
tiful for me- thought he, but II is ter
rible for lot of my friends. 1t means
death and nothing less to lot of them
unless something Is done for them l do
hope that Bob White and his family and
Mrs. Grouse and her family knew enough
not to burrow down in the snow last
night If they did do that they are likely
to be prisoners under this hard crust, and
will starve to death. Tommy Tit and
Drummer the Woodpecker and some of
the others ought to be up here pretty
soon and there isn't a thing for them to
eat That suet that l put out for them
is so covered with ice that they can't get
at it. l must get busy right away. I

He went into the house for few min
utes. When he came out he went straight
to the Old Orchard-to the tree nearest
house. There he fastened fresh piece
Of suet. Then from his pocket he took
sunflower seeds and wheat and cracked
corn and whole corn and various other
seeds and cracked nuts. Some he scat
tered on the snow at the foot of the
tree, but the greater part he put on
shelf with a roof over half of 1t, which he
had placed out there at the very begin
ming Of winter as feeding shelter es-
pecially for the birds.
Hardly was his back turned as no re-
turned to the house when he heard the
CHEEKY voice of Tommy Tit the Chtcka-
dee Farmer Browns Boy smiled. for he
and Tommy Tit are such friends that
they are almost chums. He turned to
watch for Tommy In minute he caught
sight of him coming as fast as he could.
From another direction Drummer the
Woodpecker was hurrying. Yank 4ank
the Nuthatch was just behind him.
Jay was wise enough to remember the
only place he could be sure of some
thing to eat. Farmer Browns Boy smiled
again and then hurried to the house for
his own breakfast.
So II was when Welcome and Mrs.
Robin, weak and shivering, reached the
Old Orchard they found a Thanksgiving
party already there and more coming.
Dotty the Tree Sparrow and Slatey the
Junce had Joined the others. So had
Chickoree the Goldfinch. Welcome Robin
and Mrs Robin shyly drew near the place
where the others were SO busy. Then
with a little cry Of relief and hope and
thankfulness they hurried to Join In the

KEEP LOOKINCYOUNC
It's Easy-Lf You Know Dr..
Edwards Olive Tablets.

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must
watch your liver and bowels-there,s
no need of having a saIiow complex
ion-dark rings under your eyes
pimples-a bilious look in your face
dull eyes with no sparkle. Your
doctor will tell you ninety per cent
of all sickness comes from inactive
bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well known physi-
clan in Ohio, perfected a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil to act
on the liver and bowels, which he
gave to his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub.
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They
bring about that exuberance of spirif.
that natural buoyancy which should
be enjoyed by every one, by toning
up the liver and clearing the system
Of impurities.

Brins Show New Tilt.

We have been wearing our millinery
rather straight lately, but the first
spring models. appearing in their thou
sands all up and down the avenue. are
showing a return to the artistic fitting
of the brim.
First, hats are mostly small, and
sion, fitting the head closely and built
up rather high.
The one in the sketch is worn by
woman who has felt the springlike
longing for something fresh. Her hat
is mainly composed of bright apple
green faille. with two pink silk roses
in the front to break its straight lines,
and brim faced with green straw to
give firmness. We shall hope that she is
blonde, with pink cheeks. for with
apple green a complexion Of shell-like
eoloring and yellow hair are almost
obligatory.
They have not yet told us to con-
serve straw, though we might, if we
ought. by using more of the wonder
ful new silken fabrics for our hats.
Happily enough. small turban shapes
seem to retain an endless popularity.
They make such good Background
for trimming of a picturesque nature.
A quill never seems so sprightlv as
when it faunts away from a small.
