At the little. "Shoppe" just around
the corner she stood longest of all.
And all at once into Comics bright
eyes came a speculative light. The
window was full OF small framed pic
lures, most of them with the Christ
mas spirit. There were the usual
night-clad children looking up broad
chimneys, there were landscapes of
snowy fields with distant windows
alight-Connie studied them. all; she
was seeing in vision the winding hill
road of the place where she had spent
her last summer vacation; the church
with its swaying bell in the steeple,
the queer little bridge over the deep
and beautiful stream-a bridge with
seats along its sides where's countless
lovers had sat and courted. The old
lady who had been Comics volunteer
hostess told her, with the pink coming
and going in her withered CHECKS,
about the lovers. For it was there
that her own husband had asked, and
had been answered-his question. The
way that Connie had CHANGED to visit
this beautiful country place and to
meet there the dear old lady was quite
remarkable chance too. She had
started out on the trolley car for one
restful day in the country and had
chosen this station ut random. And
when she had stopped to admire the
wonderful roses in the old lady's gar
demand they had spent some agree
able time together-the old lady. Mrs.
Martha Snow by name, had said:
"My dear! Why don't you come on
and visit me for week or two? I'm
lonely for young sweet face"
And Connie had gone, that was all.
Half her later water cOlors had been
glorified memories of that delightful
visit. Now Connie had q new inspira-
ton She would paint the queer little
bridge over an icy stream. and its
seats should be covered with snow.
She could fancy just how the trees
would look waving naked branches.
And she'd paint the church in the hol-
low with lights in the windows gleam-
ing over the snow and the bell in the
tower a-swaying for Christmas.
, Oh. Connie was very happy as she
hurried home to her attic, but there,
in the temperamental way artists
have. she began to draw instead,
working in a fever Of enthusiasm

where she had been guest, with

file showing beneath its halo of white
hair.

had completed the picture, then ran

around the corner.
"Yes. we will display It," a smiling
old man agreed.

The Earth as a Sphere.

DIR. William f. Warren, president
emeritus Of Boston university, in O
late number of the Classical Journal
gives fresh evidence for the view sc
long advocated by him that man from

East Aryans, showing that they look

hope that hers picture would not be

was the day but one before Christmas
that the "Shoppe" manager seeing her
peeking about. beckoned her inside.
"You have pleased one of our best
customers" said the manager, "and
when we mentioned your peculiar con-
dition of sale he suggested talking the
matter, over with you that you might
both come to satisfactory bargain.

wonderful artistic ability. We have

Some way she did not want her pur-

''Mr. Armstrong is man who usual

the "Shoppe" manager said.
So. though It was early afternoon.
Connie hurried home to turn on gas

dress so that she might make favor

wielder of the brush. The purchaser
might arrive any minute. But It was
the next afternoon when he came and
Connie was wearing "a bungalow

The purchaser was young and tall
and good looking. and the golden cat
greeted him with purring rub. which
was to Connie q recommendation as

Type B" Vaccine Being
Perfected at Institute
Dooms Epidemic.

Paris, Feb. 2. - The only sure
cure of the fiu exists at the famous
Pasteur Institute. where doctors are
now perfecting a vaccine called
Type B." which is expected dei-
niteIy to rid the world of Influenza
epidemics.
The vaccine, which contains
$4,000. 900. 900 dead pacilIi per cubic
centimeter, can be used both for
cure and prevention.
One sub-cutaneous injection Of
from one-haIf to two cubic cent?
meters has been found ,sUficient TO
render a healthy person immune for
the period Of the epidemic.
One injection per day. from one
fourth Of a cubic centimer on the
first day to two cubic centimeters
on the fourth day. when the danger
point is passed. is sufficient TO cure
the flu as we'll as the resultant
bronchial pneumonia. except in the
most severe cases.
When a patients life is in eN-
treme danger, the effect OF the vac
cine treatment Is increased by addi-
tional sub-cutaneous and intra-
veinaI hypodermic injections with a
new anti-pneumonia serum called
Type H." obtained from animal
bacilli causing bronchial pneumo-
mia
As a matter Of fact The use OF
this serum is probably unnecessary
in the majority Of cases, even severe
ones. The Pssteur doctors declare

treated with tho Type b" vaccine
have invariably recovered
