choice of two evils?
She knows how hard it is TO live
with her husband and she has found
out how hard it is to live without

she is free financially but strangely

She can tighten her own burden

CHOOSING ouR EVILS

Oftimes we must make a choice
of the evils of this world as well as
the good. The big trouble in the
lives of most men and women today
is that they expect to find life all
good, and that they refuse to endure
patiently their necessary portion OF
the unavoidable calamities.
Obviously, one cannot achieve all
of the joys of living; one must
choose according to ones taste and
opportunities. Nor can one escape
all of life's evils but very often one
can and one must make a choice Of
them.
A peculiar case in which a certain
woman must so choose is submitted
by a trained nurse:
Il love my husband, he loves me-
and wants me every day, and yet our
divorce case is in court
He really is not worthy of wom-
ans love, or will not be until he
has finished living his life as he likes
it. BY that time he will be played
out and only fit for nurses and doc
tors to ponder over.

although he is vicious, he never will

1t is so comforting to have ones

She did look wonderfully we'll in
her coat. 1t set off her delicate
beauty admirably. Yet when John
saw Muriel the day after Marcia
had pirouetted up and down for his
approval and admiration he thought
she looked lovelier in her plain brown
cloth coat than did Marcia in her ex-
pensive fur.
You are looking awfully nice to-

along. John was going to see Ken

"Yes, l was. / should have worn

with fur collar, and l should have
waited another year for mine. But
I'm woman. and all women love
pretty things"
John felt his eyes mist. This brave
girl, the support of herself and her
mother, working hard, censured her
self for buying a sensible warm coat.
How he wished he were rich, that he
might play fairy godfather to her.
She too would look lovely in a coat
like Marcia's. The soft mole would
be as becoming.
Mother isn't well, John" For a
long time they had been Muriel and
John to each other, the only sign Of
| intimacy they allowed themselves.

Little Stories For Bedtime
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS
WHAT PETER RABBIT
DISCOVERED
BY THORNTON w. E
Every day learn something new;

Every day learn something new;
That's tn only way to do.
Peter Rabbit found that out long,
long time ago. 1t is one reason he is
so curious about everything. The
trouble with Peter is that when he
learns something new today he
straightway forgets what he learned
-@sterday, and, of course, this is no
way to do. Peter has to learn les
son great many times before it
will stick in that queer little head of
his, and so sometimes he gets into the
same kind of trouble over and over
again. Now Reddy Fox never has to
have more than one lesson. He never
forgets, and this is why everybody
thinks him so smart,
Peter was learning something new
and very interesting now as he sat
on the top of the house of Paddy the
Beaver 1t was how Paddy got air
TO breathe. You see, ever since Peter
had climbed up on the roof he had
smellei Paddy the Beaver, smelled
him so strong that 1t had seemed as
If Paddy must be right close to him.
Peter had shifted and shifted. There
could be no doubt, not the least,
teeny, weeny bit, that he smelled
little forest and meadow people has a
smell just his own. A little of it is
left in their footsteps, and it is by
this that they track one another and
know where to find each other.
Peter knew right away that he
smelled Paddy the Beaver, but where
under the sun could Paddy be? He
looked and he looked and heN looked,
and then just as he was giving up
hope OF finding out anything. he made
a discovery. What was 1T? Why it
was that right in the very middle of
the roof where Old Man Coyote had
dug away the snow and tried to break
in were tiny little holes that went
down between the sticks of which the
roof was made, and out of these tiny
holes was coming the warm air which
Paddy had breathed and which
brought up with it the strong smell of
Paddy himself. Peter chuckled as he
thought Of how that smell must have
set Old Man Coyote almost crazy, for
he knew that in the winter Old Man
Coyote, like Reddy and Granny Fox,
must often go hungry.
Il wish | could have seen him try
ing to dig his way in and not being
able to, and all the time smelling
Paddy just as do now" thought

How To Darken
Gray Hair
A Cincinnati Barber Tells How to
Make Remedy for Gray Hair.

A well known resident of Gin
cinnati, Ohio, who has been a bar
ber for more than forty years,
recently made the following state
ment:
Anyone can prepare simple
mixture at home, at very little cost
that will darken gray hair, and
make it soft and glossy. To a
half-pint of water add ounce
bay rum, a small box OF Barbo
Compound and u ounce glycerine.
These ingredients can be bought
at any drug store at very little
cost. Apply to the hair twice
week until the desired shade is
obtained. This will make a gray
haired person look twenty years
younger. 1t is easy to use, does
not color the most delicate scalp,
is not sticky or greasy and does
not rub off"

SIR he is smart. Why, it must be
that he gets fresh air to breathe
through these little holes, and all the
time I've been wondering and Won
dering how he could live in house
without any opening except under
water. He plastered the side walls
and most of the roof with mud, which
Jack Frost has frozen as hard as
stone, but right where these little
holes are there isn't any mud. and it
must he that he left it this way just
so that the air could get through.
Now, I wonder how he knew enough
to do that. / wouldn't have. / just
wouldn't have thought anything
about it."
And this is quite true, for Peter
never thinks ahead. That is why he
is so happy -go-lucky. He says that
thinking ahead makes his head ache.
And Sc he takes things as they come,
stuffs himself when there is plenty
to eat, and goes hungry when there
isn't; gets out of one scrape only to
tumble right into another; gets ter
rible fright and forgets all about it
three minutes after it is over. Moth
ing worries Peter for very long. So
it is no wonder that 1t was hard work
for MIN to understand how any one
could be so thoughtful of the future
and work so hard TO prepare for it as
does Paddy the Beaver.
