has adopted q measure permitting the
Boston Elevated to take over tho prop

phone and Telegraph. ten Standard OH OF
New jersey common, ten American Suga

yield. and offers the following eelcotion
Burns Bros. per cent preferred. Pitts

o per cent. 1876; TcXas & Pacific 3 per
cent. Your advice Will be greatly appreci-
stod and followed, as I have absolute con-
Ndence in your judgment.-H, J. II.
Answer--If you want higher rate
OF income we believe the Morris &,
Essex, Northern Central and Standard
Oi! Of New Jersey stocks are the prope r
ones to dispose of. They are extreme
ly conservative and we would caution
you to avoid going too far toward the
other extreme in selecting substitutes,
1t is our idea that you should take sen
soned preferred stocks Of good grade
or conservative bonds. Texas & Pacific
bs, 1881, are not the kind OF bond We
have in mind, nor is Burns Brothers
preferred the kind OF stock. We would
suggest American Locomotive preferred

Answer-We would not advise you to
and invest the proceeds in bonds, be-
cause We think that the kind of bonds
selling under present. conditions to
yield 6h per cent or more are not suit
able for q person In your circum-
stances. A year ago you might have
made this deal with profit and compar-
ative security. For your wifc's funds
we would suggest two Great Northern
Railways rs, 1898, yielding about CO
per cent; two Bush Terminal Buildings
6s, 1860, yielding about ST per cent,
and one Swidish government 6s, 1929,
selling around 100. The Straus bonds

By ROE FULKERsoN

r Andrew sat in hls 2 T with far away gaze in his eyt. The long ash on his cigarette showed that he had not moved for some time.
 What 1t is, dear?" asked Imogene. quietly. after sine had watched him for moment.
 T have lost something" he said quietly, T was going back down the lane of life looking for it. I was searching in the hearts of the dew beaded purple morning glories that used to bloom at dawn along the rail fence that lined the side of the lane. was looking in the crimson tints, in the cloth of gold which marked the royal pathway of the ascending sun as 1t rose over the meadow down below the barn. From there I went down the garden walk between the hollyhocks and tulips to where the humming birds used to get their morning sip of ambrosia out of the yellow honeysuckles on the garden fence.
 Then I stroled down to that deep pool under the sycamore that leaned over the water and looked to see if the iridescent dragon flies I used to watch there knew what 1t was.
 From there I had gone up under the bridge where the Pewee used to build her moss covered nest and peered into the semi-darkness there over the creek to see If 1t was there but my search was unrewarded.
 Then l went to where the vfolets used to carpet the ground under that big peach on the hillside and lay at length and gazed up into the sky where the white fleecy clouds drift hv fn ff to be but the ground felt damp and I moved on.
 Then I took off my shoes and went to Where the creek gurgied across the pebbles at the ford and I waded with my feet on the glitter ing bottom and watched the minnows scud here and there but my feet were tender and soon replaced my shoes.
 Then l took a little tin pail and went up beside the mill race where the Indigo bird sat on the highest briar and sang an anthem to his mate on the nest below, and picked the luscious blackberries, but the thorns hurt my fingers, the sun burn ed my neck and the thought that the berries could be bought in market at 70 cents the quart, made me drop my pail and turn away with a sigh.
 T went down to the style that separated my place from yours, and sat there looking for girl with a pink sunbonnet and two pig tails of hair down her back to come up the road in the sunshine, but the path was empty and the seat uncomfort- able. and I did not find what I was looking for there.
 Then I whistled to the dog and struck across the field to where a quail was whistling his shrill Bob White. but the fences were all barbed wire. the old single -barreled muzzie- loader looked dangerous. and I was

NATURE LOVES BRIGHT COLORS

We see the truth of this statement in the varicolored flowers. the vivid sunsets, the birds of brilliant plumage. But we never see 1t exemplified more attractively than in the person of a splendidly healthy woman. How does nature paint this health Why, in the rosy cheeks, the transparent skin, the smooth red lips of such wom- an. And she moIds it in firm flesh and rounded contours. The ailing woman is deficient in natural colorings and she does not even appear to advantage in clothes 1 that would set off her more attractive sis ter. Many women who long for glowing health will find that they. too, can have l these charms if they will give trial to- that remedy which brings stt sngth to frail
