did something that affected him
profoundly. She had both glOved
hands in her coat pockets. and as
she withdrew a hand the fluffy golf
ball came out and dropped into
hollow between two hagstones,
where had collected the most in
famous liquid results of motor over

Rodbourne was filed for the first
time with the extraordinary pity
for women which sometimes comes
to men, particularly to those men
who have conquered the brilliant
and the beautiful. Patricia's cry
was like that of a child seeing its
toy broken. She looked concerned
as over the loss Of some precious
Jewel. So it was unsteadily and
hurriedly he replied:
Never mind, I've got another

said, as he picked up baby; Let
daddy kiss the place and make it

This new quality OF intimacy re-

coat, as together they ran through
the rain toward the house. They
had to run, for the rain was in
creasing in violence; they arrived
flushed and little out of breath,
with shining eyes that sought each

young that morning after having
felt so old. He was eXhilarated

AS they went into the house they
were silent, and he was oppressed
by the sense of her nearness. His
elbow touched hers as he effaCed
himself at a doorway. The brief
contact brought up Patricia to him
so wildly as he had seen her in

night before, looking so small and
school-girlish with her thin, pretty
arms, bony and red at elbow and
wrist.
She affected him by a sort OF
freshness, by lack Of preparation.
She seemed to him white, and soft,
and dewy, like a snowdrop at dawn.
There was a little GOODNESS in this
attraction, which pleased him,
which vaguely challenged him to
mute It into ardor. Something so
delicate to hold and lead, some
thing so gentle that he vaguely felt
he wanted together to cherish and
to bruise.
But almost at once the memory
of Claire came to him. Dear Claire!
How lovely she looked the night
before. He hadn't been able to go
to her that morning because some
fool OF a housemaid was polishing
the parquet outside his door. He
wanted to see her. He had several
things to tell her and he wanted her
advice on something. And to hold
her big, beautiful hand.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
 GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Recipe of Sage Tea and
 Sulphur

Hair that loses it's color and lustre, or when 1t fades, turns gray. dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandm other made up mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beau tiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time re- cipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ture improved by the addition Of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" which dark ems the hair 50 naturally. so evenly that nobody can possibly tell 1t has been applied. You just dampen sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at time. By morn ing the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's 8 Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after few applications 1t also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of aboundance.

Of us is;--how can l, such as I am in ability. health and character find and select my best opportunity for service, and use that opportunity not only for my own betterment but for that Of humanity Opportunity is a word which, like so many others that are excellent. we get from the Romans. IL means near port or close to harbor, Thus 1t may be any favorable occasion, time. or place for learning or doing some thing.
 Value Of Courtesy.
 Tn our school life perhaps one of the best opportunities offered us Is that or our associations. If We chance to mingle with one who bears him self with case and grace, or talks cor rectly In pleasantly modulated tones there is opportunity, If, on the other hand, we find ourselves in the com pany of the rude, their vulgarity should give us only higher estimate of the worth of courtesy and correct behavior.
 "The happiness and good fortune of our companions always add much to our own. If they arc strong and courageous, their strength and cour- age shall in some way, help us. If they are poor and suffering. their hardships should be an incentive. for is it not true that 1owliness Is Young Ambitious ladder?
 Achieving Success.
 What is more inspiring than to read Of strong hearted youths. who in the midst of want and poverty, lack ing everything in fact but lofty aim and purpose, have climbed this ladder, step by step until success finally showers on them applause and gold? Many Of our heroes whose names now are immortal, have begun their work at the handle Of the blow. As long ago as before the days of the Ameri- can revolution Thomas Gray. the English poet wrote these well known lines .s :" Full many a gem of purest ray
 serene
 The dark unfathomed cares of
 ocean bear
 Full many a flower was born to blush
 unseen
 And waste its sweetness on the
 desert air.
 Surrounded by Opportunity.
 Today, not only do earth and ocean give up their treasures for our but we are surrounded on every side by all possible advan- tages that the city or state can afford for the improvment of our lives.
 Work Is Opportunity.
 Thus it is that work is an oppor- tunity for it is only by work that we may continue to make progress. Let us, therefore, exert our very best to accomplish each task that is presented 10 us and SO feel keener apprecia- .ion of our many opportunities. Let me but do my work from day
 to day, In field or forest, at the desk or loom, | Tn roaring market place or tranquil
 room.
 Let me but find it in my heart to When vagrant wishes beckon me
 astray,
 This is my work: my blessing, not
 my doom,
 )f all who live I am the one by
 whom This work can best be done in the
 right way.
 Tt is, therefore, not only our privi- ege. but our duty to grasp eagerly whatever opportunities are offered us' nd to ,ursue them with perseverance lntil we, too, after climbing, step by tep shall have reached the hna' ung in the ladder of success
