me to save myself.
THANK YOU.
Indeed, there are men who re-
spect good women. There are more
than you realize. Even the men
you firt with and ind SO unsatis-
factory after the dance have an al
tar in their hearts, at which they
give reverence to purity in women.
You like to play with fire too
veil. BY making yourself beautiful
with artificial methods and using
your fiirty eyes to the best advan-
tage you attract men. But what do
you expect to attract in them
Their viftuous nature? The up-
worthy in your nature goes out and
attracts the unworthy in the mans
nature.
Keep your purity and your chss.
tity. Give up the rouge and your
Irritation, Your eyes will be even
more beautiful IL they light up with
gentleness and understanding,
Above all think good and worthy
thoughts. II your mind dwelis on
the weakness in men you will never
know the strength. The girl Who
can attract the best in a man il
the one who finds happiness.

No. 15-A New Slant on Loyalty.
The worker had refused fatty to
help another worker on special job.
It's none of my work." he growled,
and beside, he never did anything
for me-"
The result Of that lack Of co -oper-
alton caused a serious loss to the
concern. The manager called the
worker to him and asked why he re-
fused to help his fellow worker. He
is an old crouch, never does anything
for anybody" was the lame excuse.
IF you had asked me to do some
thing, it would have been different"
the worker continued. I'D do any
thing for you"
Don't talk crazy" snapped the
manager. You are. absolutely dis
loyal" - n
What! Me disloyal You know
I've always done everything could
for you," the worker exclaimed.
Il don't care a boot in Gehenna
about that. Loyalty means faithful
allegiance to the concern and not to
any individual in the concern. If you

individuals except in so far as they
represent the ideals and rules Of the
house."
Think Of loyalty from this stand
point and you will soon find oppor-
tunities galore to develop loyalty.
Keep in mind the fact that the COM
pany you work for pays you for all
your time and thought. To give less
| is to short weight it.
| Another thing. Don't believe Dame
Rumor-she's a notorious liar. Go
to headquarters for facts before de-
Gliding that this or that is wrong.
The house believes in you Tor they
would not keep YOU'D. Its success de-
Ponds on your work and your fellow
workers work. 1t knows that best
results come from happy workers. so
it gets workers it believes in, and
then does all 1t can to make them
happy. You should have faith in the
| intentions of your concern until you
prove them other than fair.
| Disloyalty Is disease. Once you
catch it you become disloyal for
whomever you work. A concern can
get rid Of you and your grumbling,
disloyalty, but you carry your dis
| ease" with you.
Remember that your interests and

your firms interests are identical,
and that only by working together
best results are attained You then
become loyal to the house for such
loyalty is mutually profitable.
The next thing to take up Is what
kind of builder are you? Do you
possess constructiveness? II the &C
tual work you are now doing has a
direct and necessary bearing on the
work already done, and also leads to
further work which will be aided by
the past and present, that work is
constructive.
Building up friendship is construc-
ton work, especially If these friend
ships are with fellow workers, GUS
toners and competitors.
The man with loyal friends is the
man who succeeds for his friendships
are constructive.
Constructiveness Is the ability to
build, to form. Make your present
work advance past accomplishments
and you work is constructive. Put
all your work on this basis and the
question Of developing constructive
| ness solves itself

THE THREE MJLSKETEERS- Alexandra Dumas
Condensation By Capt Andre Morzc

20 Lord de Winter, exposing his false
sister-in-law and heiress, and TO an
influential krieE1 OF Aramis, asking
for the name OF the convent where
Madame Bonancieux was confined.
Thus on her arrival in England
Lady de Winter was seized and i'm
prisoned I'm her brother flaws
castle: but, exercising her wiles upon
her young jailer, she contrived 70
escape, and so poisoned the jailer's
ears against Buckingham that he
was ready 10 do her deadly work.
Sent by de Winter as a messenger to
the duke, he plunged dagger into
Buckingham side. De Winter ar
rived IN London one minute too late
to save the duke. but a messenger
from Paris was just in time TO de-
liver TO Buckingham the queens
pledge OF love. He died with the
queens name on his lips.
Now Madame de Winter had fed
TO France-to the convent Of Be
thune. where Madame BonancieuX
was BY poison she accomplished
her purpose, and when d'Artagnan
and his comrades arrived at the
convent they found the body OF the
pretty seamstress. They set out in
pursuit OF the murderess, and when
they found her they held a formal
trial and condemned her to death.
An executioner was found-the very
man who had put the brand upon
her shoulder years before.
The next day d'Artagnan was ar
rested and taken before the Cardinal,
his captor being none other than
his man Of Meung," who now called
himself the Chevalier de Rochefort.
D'Artagnaa told the Cardinal OF the
crimes OF Lady de Winter. and final
ly produced the Cardinals own pass
port, absolving the bearer.
Admiration overcome anger IN
the cardinal. Instead Of ordering
d Artagnan's Imprisonment, he wrote
out there and then a lieutenants
commission in the Musketeers.
D'Artagnan offered the commission
TO his three friends in turn. All
three refused II, protesting they did
not deserve IT, Besides, Aramis an
nounced that he was about to enter
the church, and Porthos said he was
about to be married Athos there
upon wrote upon the blank COM
mission the name of d'Artagnan.
As for Rochefort. d'Artagnan
fought him many times, but at last
they decided that they were both
too good to die, and they became
friends.

Dumas has not the heart To turn
them away; he even invented tasks
so they would not feel unhappy
about staying. One homeless vaga-
don the four comrades set out. Be
set by the Cardinals men on the
road, three We're wounded, and only
d'Artagnan reached London. There
was just time TO replace the stolen
studs and return 10 Paris, which
d'Artagnan reached on the night Of
the ballet, foiling Richelieu's plot.
He now set out TO find his com
rades. POrthos he found in bed at
an inn, Aramis disputing with doc
tors Of theology, and Athos drunk in
a wine cellar, airing his secret sor-
row and defying the landlord TO
eject him. In his youth, AthOs con-
fessed, he had been tricked into mar
riage with a beautiful fiend, who, he
later discovered. carried on her
shoulder the executiOner's brand, the
fieur de lys. Horror stricken, he
had slain her.
IN church next day d'Artagnan's
eye was caught by a very beautiful
lady whom he recognized a. the one
who had been with the stranger at
Meung. Following her from the
church, he saw her talking with an
Englishman, and drawing close he
heard her call this man her brother
in-law, Lord de Winter.
D'Artagnan fell deeply in love with
Lady de Winter, but his ardor cooled
when he learned that she was a
cardinalist plotter. BY a trick he
obtained from her a sapphire ring,
which he showed 10 Athos.
Where did you get this7" cried
Athos. ct was my mothers"
D'Artagnan told him.
"Renounce that woman" said
Athos. "She is a fatal creature"
That night d'Artagnan accused
Lady de Winter of treachery. She
rushed upon him and in avoiding
her blow he pulled her dress from
her shoulder.
There was the executioner's brand
tho fieur de lys.
At this time the war between
England and France was at It's
height and the siege Of la Rochelle
was beginning. Richelieu, learning
all that d'Artagnan had done, tried
to buy him into his own service.
DArtagnan refused, knowing that
refusal might cost him his life. The
Three Musketeers set out now 10 dis

instruct Lady de Winter TO go 10
