TO THE
LOVELORN
Ideals and Money.
-RY Beatrice Fairfax-

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
~ am twenty-five and in
love with a girl a few years my
junior. We have been going
out with each other for the
past few months, and short
time ago the girl stated to me
that she cared for me. Since
then the girl told me that her
father objected because / am
not of considerable means.
However, my prospects are
good, and although the girl
does not like to displease her
father, she still cares for me.
What is the right thing to
do, because / love the girl
dearly, and could not think Of
giving her up? At the same
time it hurts the girl. We
shall be guided by your advice.
PERPLEXED.
YOU say that your prospects
L are good. Work toward the
realization of your success with
faith and courage. Then you will
have more to offer the girl you
love than mere money. Naturally
her father longs to see her have
the things which he perhaps
could not give her. But he Is
thinking in terms OF material
possessions, and you can easily
prove to him that true and un.
selfish devotion plus honest work
makes a man richer and sends
him to the woman he loves with
a bigger endowment than an &C.
tual bank account. I am sure
the fathers objections are not
serious. He Is stating his ambi-
ton for his daughter, but IL she
stands fast in her ideals, she will
win him over.

THE RHYMING
OPTIMIST
Flying Clouds.
BY AIine MichaeEis

- We watched through sum-
mer hours the azure OF the
- sky; a lake where white
leaved flowers; the clouds, go
floating by. Their petals idly
drifting, as white as driven snow,
send light and shadow shifting
across the fields below. And
over hill and valley, past groves
OF elm and oak, on mead and
leafy alley the shadows fit like
smoke. One moment-and they're
shading the gold of ripened
grain; the brilliant day seems
fading, birds cease their sweet
refrain. Upon, the hills out yon-
der a deeper mist creeps up and
twilight seems to wander across
the valleys cup. Then, like a
strong bird winging, the clouds
go fleetly by, and feathered
threats start singing beneath the
smiling sky. And all the world is
brighter that once was overcast,
as every heart feels lighter for
shadows that are past. At times
when cares assail me, and trou-
bles loom ahead, when plans
seem bound to fail me and hopes
are turned to dread, then earth
looks dark and dismal and would
I think it sol my griefs would be
abysmal, my lot be filled with
woe. But still 1 hold a vision Of
tranquil deeps Of sky where,
white as flowers Elysian, the
clouds go drifting by. And, when
their shades are falling, 1 know
they dim the day; but 1 am glad.

A Thrilling Story of the Running Down
of a Band of Master COunterfeiters
By the Secret Service

~UT Kestner dwelt on none of
these things. What sudden
ly but unfortunately dis
turbed him was the discovery that
Watchers hands were shaking as
he fell back a, step or two, with
his eyes on the other man as
he did SO.
''Yes, I'm going to answer for
IT," Watched said in a voice that
seemed to come from his throat
without a movement OF the lips.
"And I'm going to answer for it
in the right way"
Kestner's eyes had been fixed
on the trembling hand that paved
for a moment along the carefully
pressed lapel of the carefully tai
lored coat. He saw that hand
suddenly disappear beneath the
lapel, and at the same moment
his own hand swung down to his
hip. He knew. even as he did

Of the room.
WatcheIs revolver before he could
possibly reach that corner or that
coat. He was not coward, but
his heart stopped. for he knew
what the next moment had in
store for him.
His next action was instructive:
he had no time for thought. He
ducked low and darted forward,
thinking to reach the shelter or
the heavy, lockwood desk.
- But the first shot came at the
same moment that he ducked. He
could feel a small twitch at the
elbow, as though his coat sleeve
had been pIucked by impatient
and invisible fingers. That first
flying bullet, he knew, had ac-
tuaIly cut through the cloth of
his coat.
But he had reached the desk
end before the second shot could
be fired. His movement there
was equally unreasoned and in
stinctive as his first. He caught
the Roman lamp of heavy brass
by the top. He was possessed Of
q vague idea to smash down the
shaking hand still holding the re-
volver. But he could already
feel that the action was a foolish
one, for the waiting finger COM
pressed on its trigger before that
swinging standard of brass could
even reach the zenith of its orbit.
Kestner was conscious of the
quickly shifting barrel being di-
rected at his own body. And he
knew that the shot was to be
fired, and fired at calamitously
close quarters, that the small
black mouth Of the weapon was
ordained to deliver its flame and
lead.
Then the picture in some way
became confused. It's shiftings
were too rapid to decipher. But
at what seemed the moment when
the black barrel-end spoke he
heard Maura Lambert's cry, flat
with fear. He saw her hand dart
out and clutch the glimmering
steel barrel. She caught at it
foolishly, insanely, as though a
barrier so frail might hold back
