He looked at Elizabeth and was
startled by her pallor. Surely moth
ing this man could be saying could
affect her. The very idea that such
could be the case made hi mindig-

Elizabeth said quickly. Your son
might be going in with the team
having Talak drive him, and Mr..

car back tomorrow, or somebody
could be coming out from Midland

Elizabeth Wade was more than

group sat upon the veranda.

If he guessed the truth about her
identity. there was little danger of
his revealing it TO Butler before he
left.
She had seen him so down TO the
orchard this afternoon, had watched
anNiously his return with Butler to
the farmhouse. But from Buffers
demeanor she was sure that the
farmers son had divulged to him
nothing of a startling nature. She
had scanned the two countenances as
the pair reached the veranda. Young
Chaplin had looked rather glum; But
Ter seemed just as usual.
At supper, Clifford had been ST.

She started. but controlled herself

perhaps 1t was invitable that she
should suffer some imposition. What
of it? 1t is always better to be the
one that is imposed on than the one
who imposes. and a large confidence
and admiration weigh considerably
heavier in life's scales than a few
injustices and disloyalties.
AS for the man who talked to me.
he was merely temporarily embittered
by bit of bad luck. But one snow
flake doesn't make a winter any more
than one swallow makes a summer.
The quality in him that induced fall
ure in one instance might be the very
quality that would induce success in
the next. The worlds demand for
intelligent, square men is never filled.
They are the shining needles for
which the business haystacks are
determinably searched.
All of our debts are not financial
ones. The person who habitualy i'm
pose upon another's kindness or gem
erosity is simply piling up an enorm-
Gus quantity of debt, which sooner or
later he has got to pay with COM
pound interest.
The law is not abated one lot or
little. We all have tbeen taught the
SuCH dS w lIn WndJ meas
ure we mete it shall be meted unto
you again" are regilious utterances
enunciating what we vaguely call
spiritual truths. Instead. they are
very clear statements of unescapa-
BILE, everyday fact-just plain cause
and effect.
And the bother of it is that we've
got to live with ourselves. and it
isn't pleasant to have an inseparable
companion whom we know to be an
habitual law-breaker.
I don't know any really all-around
wicked people. I don't believe they
exist. We all have the virtues of our
vices and the hices of our vir-
tues. But I have from time to time
known persons who apparently did
not even try to be just fair or even
decently kind.
AS far as can see, they were
more to be pitied than blamed. They
worked so awfully hard to evade
such small obligations and RESPONSE
bilities; and they tried so desperately
to justify themselves and to explain
how misunderstood they were. that
they were terrible bores.
1t really looks as If the victims
have a much easier lot than the ones
who victimize. They can go about in
a care-free way and enjoy themselves.

Butler conjectured looking at the

Something was in the air. OF that
he was sure. He was one of those
sensitive persons who feel a certain
atmosphere before they detect what
is wrong.

Cliord Chaplin met his sugges-
ton stolidly. "On the contrary" he
declared. Il was not thinking of you
at all. l even forgot that you came
from the west. But had I remem-
bered that Wade sent you here I

NZOU are making your child's
character day by day and hour
by hour.
Are your children afraid" of
things? And if they are. do you
know how to help them to get the
better of their childish fears?
Fear does more than make the
world miserable. 1t is respon5 BILE
for practically all mental and nearly
all physical disorders. And it keeps

You want to teach your child to
overcome fear, but to do this sue
cessfuIly your methods must be based
upon knowledge of the underlying
causes of fear.
A father writes to me:
1 wish you would tell us how to
convince a three-year- that, after
he goes to sleep, ''moo-cow" with
an Unsuitable appetite for little chill
dren will not gain access to the
room. l can't imagine where he got
the notion.
You can easily lead the child to
master such a fear, for while the
trouble seems to be at night rather
than in daytime. yet impressions re-
ceived during the day have a great
influence. If possible, arrange to
take this boy to see some one milk

serve how absolutely fearless of the
animal the owner is. Have the boy
gradually draw nearer and nearer.
Do not coax or pay any special at
tention TO him, but continue to make
the suggestion that the COW is gentle
and tame and gives fine, sweet milk.
Speak in a very low and calm voice.
If 1t is not convenient to carry out
the method suggested, simply draw a
picture of a cow. You might begin
by telling about where the milk comes
from. This will lead naturally to a
little talk about the COW. AS you draw

that any man who could afford 10

fore the word, then emphasizing it
strongly-'with her talents should
decide to spend the summer out on
farm among strangers"
Shut up, Cliff"
Amos Chaplin meant to mutter the
warning softly, but it reached
Elizabeth's ears.
She was fearful lest Butler had
heard it. She must say something
to ease the situation.
Il suppose that every girl who
has worked at college all the year
is glad of a chance to rest out in
the country" she hazarded desper-
ately.
AT college!"
The exclamation was Clifford 5,
and Elizabeth realized that in her
nervousness and excitement she had
admitted that she had been at col
lege. Yet nowadays even a girl like
Martha Chapin's cousin might go 70
college.
Yes" she answered Clifford's ex-
clamation hastily. You know so
little of your relatives that you are
not even sure which of your cousins
is a college girl. But I am one"
She could feel John Butler turn
toward her. II thought as much,
he observed. Yet you never lold
me of it,"
Clifford Chaplin rose abruptly.

calmness, 'if I could have a few
minutes talk with you.''

KNITTERS ARE URGENTLY

1t is believed by local Red Cross

charge of the knitting department
that knitting will be continued un-
less other advices are received. 1T

fill an order for $500 pairs of socks
by the first of Octobtr and we need
workers to finish the requisition.

like this. Maybe when you are a
little older, you could take care Of
cow yourself. Wouldn't that be fine?
You could drive her out to eat green
grass in the pasture field. And per-
haps you could go up and pet her;
she might run away from you at
first. but after she finds out you don't
want to hurt her she would not run
away from you and she would let
you pet her whenever you wanted
to-"
Frequent conversation of this ma
ture will help the boy to overcome
his fear of cows at night.
Be sure your child has plenty of
fresh air in his room at night and not
too many covers. When the blood
becomes warm. it influences the i'm
agination during sleep. Make spe-
cial effort to have him go to bed in
a very quiet atmosphere. 1t would
be a good idea to accompany him to
bed for a few evenings, remaining
with him for few minutes, talking
to him quietly about what a fine time
he will have the next day and dwell
ing on a few things which would
be pleasant for him to think and
dream about.
A very serious mistake is often
made by parents who ridicule their
children in this fashion: "Oh. Tom,
for pity sake. don't be so foolish.
You act like little baby. Why. you
know better that to act so .silly!"
This makes the case worse instead
OF better. because the child feels that
even his parents do not sympathize
with him, and there is a tendency
for him to dream that he is in trouble
and that no one comes to rescue him.
Fear is a matter of feeling and
must be reached through feeling, not
by will near reason. If your child
has fear of some object and you wish
to cure him, two things are essential
You must make the object familiar
and you must arrange for him to
have pleasant associations in connec-
tion with It, Any fear treated in
this way will rapidly disappear.
