and ran 10 the door to welcome her.
Then | led her to Ted and escaped.
Ted wouldn't miss me and Den
ought TO be robbed OF all her de-
lenses.
She came to me an hour later
with:
I'm so glad l told him. Hes
wonderful"
Most OF the girls in this town
think so" ventured. liked to re-
mind Deb frequently that certain
very handsome young women we're
wild to take the man she seemed
bent on refusing.
"He asked me to marry him
again. knew he would. He sald
weeks ago that he intended to ask
me every time he saw mel"
OF course this sent me of into
gale of laughter.
And he has kept his word,' Deb
added.
What a delightful romance, Deb
bic dear How all the girls would
envy you II they knew 1t! 1t must
be perfectly thrilling to have man
as attractive as Ted Moore pro-
pose for the hundredth time!
"Oh no! think 1t Is only the
twenty-seventh!"
"You refused-agRin?"
Not exactly. First told him
that he is not, and probably never
could be first in my heart!"
rnHh{n Hn0F la
that Ted has had more than one
heart affair OF his Uwn!"
"He said so. He told me that
he fell in love with his landlady's
daughter when he went to college.
Then he had proposed to girl
when in the army, a girl who turn
ed him down when she learned that
he was poor. And he says that
girl proposed to him last winter
Goodness gracious!" exclaim-
ed. Hero was more romance than
I had dreamed of.
She was IN the same ofice-he
told the girl 1t was only 'propinqul-
ty.' Imagine! She was furious!
Never spoke to Ted afterward! But
he tried TO be nice, OF course.
"That is the complete record OF
his romances? It's shorter than
most" observed.
'He says l ought not to regret
the length of his list because 1t
will end with me-whether mar
ry him or not!"
"Do you mean to say that you
don't intend to go to South Amert-

MIXED HUM0R AND TRAGEDY

There iS no country in the world like Ireland. Even its serious attempts at revolution nave a humorous side. Just SIS there iS touch of sadness in the widest Irish merrimeut. there is a bit of good humur in the midst of it's most tragic carneStncSs.

HELPED BY ROYAL FRIENDS
Musicians of Old Days Found Valuable Patrons Among Those In tho
 High Places.

Many A famous European musical genius has been literally supported at one time or another during his career bv "the great" many musicians being connected with royal courts especially in the days when there were many It. tie princes. ;,
 Joseph Haydn for 33 years directed and composed for the private con certs of the princes of Esterhazy' dur ing which period he created most or his best rhapSOdies.
 Beethoven had his life made easier for him by the Archduks Rudolph ana Princes Lichnowsky and Lobkowiti'. These three nobles were his truesI admirers in day when musicians oc- cupIed a subordinate social position and were regarded more or less as the yassals of the family that supported them.
 On one occasion Beethoven was asked to improvise before an aristo- cratic gathering. He began playing but the conversation In the salon con- tlnued. In high anger Beethoven arose. exclaimed forcefully though rudeIy: "To such pigs play no more Y and dashed out of the room.

DIDN'T GET CHIEFS MEANING
Sailor Misunderstood, but After AL, Kangaroo Is as Good Name
 as Any Other.

The Kangaroo received Its name through the failure of white men to understand the language of the Aus tralian buShmen. Captain Cook. dis coverer of Australia, gazing ShOreward one day, saw a group of natives about what seemed to be most peculiar animal. He sent a group of men ashore to get 1t. and was still more amazed when told of its shape its habit of carrying its young in a pouch and its remarkable lcaping ability. He wanted the natives name for the spec imen that he intended to take back to England.
 "What's the name of that beastIe?" demanded an English tar of the ma lives chief.
 "Kan ga roo," returned the native.
 Kangaroo, eh?' repeated the sailor man, and. satisfied returned to his captain. The fact is, however, that the words spoken by the chief are merely a phrase meaning q, or we, don't know"

Takinu Care of Indoor Plants.

To make ferns grow rapidly indoors and look fresh and green, chop few oysters fine and mix with the soil and then water well. This may be done every fortnight. Wash the leaves of your rubber plant with q cloth wet with olive oil. This nourishes the plant and keeps the leaves dark green and velvety. Add few drops of am mona to q quart of lukewarm water when you water house plants. The chemical acts as a tonic and fertilizer and makes the foliage frcsher. And be careful, when real winter weather comes, not to water your plants with water too cold. Water running from a faucet In January Is far too cold for tender plants. Add enough hot water to make the drink you give your plants lukewarm-as rainwater always . is in summer time.

SHRIRE'S MEANING NOT PLAIN
Erected to the Memory of Japanese Maid, But Its Precise Idea
 Hardly Apparent.

One of the pretty shrines of Japan Is based on the story of beautiful girl. and to this day occidentals can not figure out if the shrine was to perpetuate a tragedy or an honor. The story Is that Yumatodake, one of the greatest warriors in the History of the country, halted for a night at the village of ShimOdaira. He was weary of battle and strife. and sent out word tO the village that he wished tO be entertained by the 'prettiest girl there. KemaChiya was selected, and 1t is told how she spent the evening singing and dancing for the warrior. He went on his mastcrfUl way the next morning leaving the little maiden to mourn his passing. and to give birth to his child in due time.
 Now, the child died, as did its moth CT and the village erected the shrine, and every few years it is rebuilt and made more beautiful. But what no occidental can discover is whether the shrine was built to remind the citizens of the miIitariSn of the old days that trod with relentless heels on beggar and wealthy alike, and thus to pay tribute to a tragedy, or whether 1t was built to show that the great war rior honored the humble village by taking one of its membership into his arms.

Story of the Pansy.

The centenary of the pansy was eel ebratCd a few years ago by the Eng fish florists and the history of the flower as given at the time was as fol- lows:
 "Just one hundred years ago Lady Mary Bennett, daughter of the earl of Tankerville, was so struck with the simple beauty of a tiny wildling viola tri-cOlor that she collected some of the best plants and gave them careful cul- tivatlOn. The first batch of seedlings raised by her gave such promise that systematic selection was at once insti- tuted, and, thereafter the improvement of the genus was taken up by the lead ing growers. Thus to an enthusiastic amateur we are indebted for one of the most popular and beautiful of our garden flowers"

 At Brandon the first flint working industry has been carried on for sev' erul thousand years. A small colony Of workers is still making gun flints there and exporting them to savage tribes in Northern and Central Africa It iS said that these wOrkmen are lincal descendants of the flint workers of tie rgolithic age.

EASY FOR FRENCH PEASANTS
American Tourists Expected to Poul Golden Flood Through the War
 Devastated Regions.

Commenting on the American sum mer rush to Europe, especially to the French hattleields, Customs Inspector Henri Duyal said in New Orleans:
 "I am reminded of a tourist anec dote,
 "ln many French provinces every peasant raises each year for his fam ily's use one or two enormous pigs. Nothing of the pig Is discarded-the Gat Is boiled down for lard; the blood is made into blood buildings; the hams are cured; the chops are salted; the feet are dried; the meat in the head is chopped into sausage meat; even tke ears are preserved; an occasional slice of ear being used to enrich the soup. And the tail? Oh, yes, they use the tail, too. It is stewed with vegetables and contains, they say, a tiny mursel of delicious meat.
 But to return to the aneCdOte. An American touring the north of France one summer before the war, asked a peasant what the people whereabouts lived on.
 "pigS, monsieur, in the winter, re piled the peasant, and tourists in the summer
 Customs Inspector Duval laughed.
 "Wrl," he said, the tales of eNtor' tiou l hear from people now return ing from France make ne think that few peasants will be eating pigs ears or pigs tails this winter-theyll be eating trunled chicken and drinking champagne"
