Water Low in Eaypt.

ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, June A.
To lower Egypt irrigation is of the
utmost Importance and the water for
this purpose comes from the Nile. This
year the water level of Lake Albert
and the White Nile, whence Egypt gets
so per cent of its irrigation water, is
abnormally low. In 1914 the Nile was
at its lowest record; this year it
promises to be lower. The Blue Nile,
another contributor, also is very low
this spring as the Abyssinian rains
were late.
As a result the distribution of wa
ter in July will be strictly limited
Trench levels will be low, and it is
feared that irrigating machines will
have to be used as in 1914.

Cultivating Charm of Youth

In certain moods, she is most
charming"
Then, Advice says, become master
| Of your moods. II you are the girl
who is said to be charming only in
certain moods, your duty. clearly lies
in capturing those MOODS You are
somewhat like the little girl who, when
"she was good, was very, very good.
but when she was bad she was hor-
rid"
You must know plenty OF girls who
are charming companions when they
lare ma good humor. But, catch them
lat an off moment, and you would
rather find yourself anywhere than
with them.
The Flower Seller.
That is not being charming. TO be
really worthy Of this distinction, you
should be kind and sympathetic with
every one with whom you come in
contact. You should find as big an
understanding OF the problems Of the
old lady who sells flowers on tae cor
ner as you find In the questions put
to you by your most belovsi friend.
You should have a love Of nature and
you should have a fondness for ami
mails il you would be. at all times. and
TO all people-charming That IS the
secret. Be charmed by all the world
and the sparks of life from your own
highly magnetized persc~srIty win
reach out and touch every iSVing thing
and return a response undreamed Of.
A Mask.
Don't have a charming manner for
your friends alone. That isn't real.
That isn't honest. That isnt-You.
It is the mask of you; the pretty.
charming mask. Iou are one with all
the men and women in the world and
there is no mask so concealing as to
hide you from them all Be master
Of the mood that you have discovered
to be a lovable one and at each effort
to make it part Of you it viii become
in reality, more nearly so.
If You Are a Bride.
Every one expects bride to be
charming. And nearly every one win
give her the benefit Of the doubt, IL
she isn't.
"oh. were having a charming little
guest-a BRIDE
That seems to presuppose charm.
Therefore, if you are a bride, your
chances are very good for the culti-
vation Of your attractions. The pub
lie and your friends are in a recep-
tive mood and it is so much easier
for any one to play to an audience
that is really friendly.
Shakespeare, in all his wisdom,
never said a truer thing than that all
the world is a stage. You are one OF
the players; you are playing the part
Of being charming.
Sweet and LoVable.
"Heavensi If she isn't happy now
when win she be, you are won't
to ask
No; If you are a bride, just 90
along being sweet and lovable Wear
your pretty things and smile your
happy smile. for everything in life is
fleeting and a bride is a bride but
once. Cultivate all the charm you
can IS a hostess in your new homo
and as mistress Of your man And
then, as the years ripen you, hold to
what charm you have gained and let

ment and said: "You have been up

Now, see that you don't come here
again. It's the road, If you do"
The old negro thanked him and
walked out Of the court room.
The next morning Ebenezer was up
in court again for being drunk. His
case was called. The Judge looked at
him reprovingly and remarked:
"Ebenezer, told you not to come up
here again and here you are. Have
you anything to say?'

At length. having noted the details
of all the clothes in range, Ina's iso-
lation pailed upon her and she set
herself to take Ninian's attention.
She therefore talked with him about
himself.
Curious you've never married.

Don't say 1t like that" he begged.
Il might yet"
Ina laughed enjoyably. "Yes. you
mIght!" she met this.
"She wants everybody to get mar
ried. but she wishes I hadn't"
Dwight threw in with exceeding ran
cor.
They developed this theme exhaus-
lively. Dwight usually speaking In the
third person and always with his
shoulder turned bit from his wife.
II was inconceivable. the gusto with
which they proceeded Ina had as
sumed for the purpose an air dfstrait
casual, attentive to the scene about
them. But gradually her cheeks be-
gan to burn.
"She'll cry" Lulu thought in alarm,
and said at random: "Ina, that hat Is
SO pretty-ever so much prettier than
the old one" But Ina said frOstily
that she never saw anything the mat.
ter with the old one.
"Let us talk" said Nlhian low. to
Lulu. "Then they'll simmer down.
He went on, in an undertone, about
nothing in particular. Lulu hardly
heard what he said, 1t was so pleasant
to have him talking to her In this
confidential fashion; and she was
open to misinterpretation.
In the nick of time the lobster was
served.
Dinner and the play--the show, MS
Ninian called 1t. This show was
"Peter Pan," chosen by Ninian be-
cause the seats cost the most of those
at any theater. 1t was almost inde-
cent to see how Dwight Herbert, the
| immortal soul, had warmed and melt
ed at these contacts. BY the time
that all was over, and they were at
the hotel for supper. such was his
pleasurable excitation that he was
once more playful. teasing, once more
the irrepressible. But now his Ina
was to be won back, made 1t evident
that she was not one lightly to over
look, and a fine firmness sat upon the
little doubling chin.
They discussed the play. Not one
| of them had understood the story.

queerest thing? Nothing to do with
the rest Of the play.

Dwight.
well, there 1t is again." Ina cried.
'"They didn't belong to the real play,
either"
'Oh, WE'LL" Ninian said, they have
to put in parts, l suppose, to catch
everybody. Instead of song and
dance, they do that"
"And didn't understand" said Ina.
"why they all clapped when the prln-
cipal character ran down front and
said something to the audience that
time. But they all did"
Ninian thought this might have
been out of compliment. Ina wished
that Monona might have seen, con-
fessed that the last part was so pretty
that she herself would not look; and
into Inns eyes came their loveliest
light.
Lulu sat there. hearing the talk
about the play. "Why couldn't have
said that?" she thought us the others
spoke. All that they said seemed to
her apropos, but she could think Of
nothing to add. The evening had been
to her light from heaven-how
could she find anything to say? She
sat in daze Of happiness her mind
hardly operative, her look moving
from one to another. At last Nipian
looked Mt her.
"Sure you liked 1t. Miss Lulu7"
"Oh, yes! think they all took
their parts real we'll"
II was not enough. She looked at
them appeallngly, knowing that she
had not said enough.
"You could hear everything they
said" she added. ut was" she
