"You will never love her as you
loved me- she said
Philip looked at her and his heart
contracted.
NO" he said. Il sincerely hope
not" He drove off without another
word. But his ight-heartedness
had gone.
Had he any right to marry Eva
while this other girl stisl held his
hearth
He knew her to be a WORTHLESS

teeth In pain
Nobody could account for Iowa
He wondered II he had been very
rough and untind- He hoped not

OF Kitty, once he was married.
He knew that she was coming to

Old a large share also.
Let us get our suggestion here
for the boys club Give IL a lofty
purpose and help II to blunder
away: To learn TO sing. TO make
cartoons. to practice as an orches-
ira, to make a set of piaythings. to
hnish kodak pictures, to oppose
some evil-habit formation. to dis
tribute literature. TO keep a record
of current events, TO care for a
public lawn or Fairgrounds. to coll
lect and sell waste paper. to raise
garden produce, to keep city
block in order. to wash and care for
automobiles
Likewise the girls club should
be conducted for a purpose. The
normal interests and practices of
girls of the age inclnded will sug-
gest ideas to paint pictures, to per-
form unsteady to darn and mend,
to make aprons and middies, to
raise flowers and shrubbery, to
care for babies at nursery. to fur
nish flowers for invalids or the
aged. to write stories or poetry.
But the club of boys or girls must
Rave its patron or patroness-some
older head who will do a certain
amount of its quiet thinking and
furnish many OF the ideas necessary
to stimulate the members to con-
tinue toward the lofty goal desig-
mated.
