wheel, wished him happy days over

Ned was able to make the rounds

the attitude of his guests was changed
in but one instance, AIcNab seemed tc
be measuring his liquor with ex

knew his limits, and he apparently did
not intend to overstep them. He took
a small drink, but Knutsen, his su-
perior. consumed as big a portion
as before.
It was an elated, spirited trio that
sat down at the little table in the ga
loon. Not one of them could ever re
member a happier mood Julius
served the dinner with a flourish; and
they had only laughter when a sud

blindly for his cases.
They seemed to evade him. Breath
ing hard, he sought a match, scratch
ing it against the wall Then he
stared in dumb and incredulous
astonishment.
His stock of liquor was gone. Not
even the cases were left. Thinking
that perhaps some shift in the posi-
ton of the stores had concealed
them, he made a moments frantic
search through the hold. Then, rag
ser of slipping on the perilous deck,
he rushed to the pilot house.
Captain, do you know what be-

He knocked sharply on the door,

INTERESTING WINDOWS

One lay last spring, as I walked down the street of one of our great cities with discerning friend, we passed tall house that had an air of charm and likeableness, although it was in most respects exactly like all the others in the row. It was a solid block of brick or stone build ings, each with an attractive en- trance but otherwise bare facades filled with windows. spoke of this particular house, and my friend, glancing at 1t casually. said:
 Tt must be a studio"
 "Why?" I asked.
 "Oh," he answered, "only artists and some f7w architects. know what an interesting effect is given by small-paned easement windows, opening vertically instead of hori- zontally. as the ordinary double- other house fronts Every window is a plain. hare opening, filled with two bare panes of glass. An office building or store has much the same thing. There is no suggesting of home, of beauty, of artistry. You can quite well imagine that the rooms behind those windows are unin-  certainly the windows tell you noth- ing.
 Now look at our studio facade. The windows are of the easement type, opening outward. Their panes are tiny, charming, imaginative. They make the outside of the house look quite as you know the inside must look-full of interesting per- sons and things. If I were going to remodel or even merely alter a house, the first thing I would do would be to take out every double hung window and put in easement windows. They will fit in the same opening, and the change can be made with very little labor and no serious expense.
 These easement windows may be obtained so that they open inward, but they are not as weather-proof as those that open outward. The wlno and rain cannot blow them open or leak in through them. Above at,, they have individuality and beauty as well as practicability.'

Fatty Prince as a Husband

There are times and seasons when every married man takes q good, long, appraising look at the wife of his bosom and, noting her DIany im- projections, finds 8 morbid pleasure In reflecting on what grand, sweet song matrimony would have been if only he had married his ideal.
 We'll, suppose he had married his ideal! Would it not have been as great boomerang as the three wishes that the fairies granted in the old nursery tale. where the woman wished for pudding and her exasperated husband wished 1t on her nose, and both of them had to wish it off again?
 For there is nothing for which we pay higher price than for our dreams.
 When a man looks at his middle aged wife, who has gotten fat and heavy and grizzled haired, and who has lost her complexion, and who looks like an awful example Of what not to wear, he sighs as he thinks how different she is from his ideal.
 His ideal is the woman who has q fadeless beauty. She never grows old land triple chinned, or haggard and wrinkled. She always keeps her girlish figure. Her hair retains it's lustre and is always exquisiteiy dressed. She still keeps the lilies and her clothes are a ravishment of delicate colors and rich fabrics, a vision of soft chiffons and lustrous silks and foamy faces.
 Undoubtedly pulchritadinous woman Is easy on the eyes, but she comes hard on the pocketbeok, and, lRf fal1 Mfr Man wouldn't be where you are today If you had married your ideal instead of the plain worker you did. The woman who keeps her good looks does it at the price of eternal vigil lance. It's life work in itself, and leaves her no time to help her hus- bands.
 Also it takes a mint of money. Many woman's natural-looking Titan hair has set her husband back the price of a house and lot, while a hand-painted complexion costs about as much as an old master. Be- yond all of which loom the moun- tainous bills of dressmakers and mill liners, and jewellers, and furriers, for living picture must have a gilded frame.
 And suppose you had married your ideal clinging vine. When you and your wife have an argument, and she sticks to her point of view, and when she tells you where you get off, as wives sometimes will and when she is mulishly determined to have her own way, and lets you plainly see that she doesn't think that you were ever bitten by Solomons dog
 Why, then, you can but toy with the thought Of how wonderful 1t would be to be married to a gentle, soft, yielding woman, who looks up to you and asks your advice on ev- cry subject, and never makes move without consulting Ynn and who he

Dorothy Dir
Discusses the Just Suppose
Suppose Mr. Man Had Married His Ideal-Would He Want Perennialy Beautiful Cingng Vine Instead Of His Flesh-andBo Hep-Meetp

Iieves that you are Old Man Know- It-All, and that wisdom will perish with you.
 But did you ever stop to think that the clinging vine chokes the life out of the oak. and that the parasitic band? Did you ever think what a burden 1t would be, to have a help less wife who couldn't be trusted to do anything on her own inNiative; a wife who didn't have enough confi- dence in her own judgment to order the dinner, or buy herself dress without bothering you with 1t, and who would sit down and have hys- terics whenever any domestic crisis occurred2
 Believe me, MT. Man, the men who get there haven't got clinging vine wives. They have had wives who didn't hold & man down, but pushed him forward. They have had wives who had backbones and brawn, and they've not only done their share of the work, but they've helped hus- band to do his. Take it from me. Mir. Man, if you had married your Ideal clinging vine you'd be dead wood now Instead of your being spoken of as available timber for governor or senator. or bank presi- dent, or the head of some big com pany.
 Suppose you had married your ideal domestic woman. You think of her longingly when the bills are big and when your wife drags you, frothing at the mouth, to dinners and parties, and you think how nice 1t would be to have a wife who spends her time cooking, and whose idea of a hilarious evening is to sit across the table and darn stockings while you read the paper.
 But If you had married her you would have no place in society, be- cause in America it Is the wife who makes and holds her family's social position. You would never have been invited out to the smart little dinners you go to; you would never have met the important people who have advanced your fortune. And how long do you think you would have stayed In love with a woman whose whole conversational roper tcire ran from the kitchen to the nursery, and back again, and whose most exciting topic of conversation is the price of butchers meat2
 No, MT. Man, you wouldn't have really cared for your domestic Ideal
