 All right, dearie," said cheerfully. I am always glad to do errands for mother, and I thought right away that it would be fun to wear it the next time I should be, with Dexter Haines. The jeweler to whom I took it told me that it was fine stone of good color.
 Tt doesn't show well in this old fashioned setting," he said. Tt would be really handsome in a modern set ting.p .s..
 Would it be good in ring?" Certainly. In platinum it would be stunning" he replied, and I could not resist having it reset. I asked the jeweler to make a special order of it, for wished to wear it to the theater where was going the next evening, but one, with Dexter Haines. I told the jeweler I had to have it for very important social event.
 "Why, Lucille, where did you get all the magnificencew asked Dexter when I placed my hand on my program at the theater, so that he would notice my, ring.
 Whatever any one does or says 1 qouted demurely, I must be good, just as if the gold or the emerald, or the purple were always saying this what everyone does or says, must be emerald and keep my color"
 What a girl you are, Lucilew he s.as1 4o1- instant. 'I wish my mother had known you"
 Then the curtain rose, and I did not say anything, but felt that the emer- aid had already made a strong bond between us. Later told him that it was an heirloom in our family, and that had recently had it reset, for, like himself, was devoted to emeralds.
 T had hoped to give you one my self, some day." he said.
 Well, to confess the truth. this jewel belongs to mother" remarked laugh ingly, and then I changed the subject. ] don't wish Dexter to become too se- rious as yet. I am not sure whether I wish to marry him, and I, certainly don't wish to refuse him and let some other girl enjoy, his charming society. l wish 1 knew more about his finan- cial prospects. feel that dear daddy will not leave me a very large for tune, and that it is only prudent to think of the future sensibly, without too much sentiment.
 "Where's my brooch?" asked mother the day she returned from the farm. "Is it mended all rightY
 "Your emerald is lovely now," I an- swered, giving her the ring.
 Whats this?"
 "Your beautiful emerald, darling. The jeweler told me it was a shame not to have it in a modern setting. I had this ring made for you"
 But, Lucile," she gasped,. "I loved that little old brooch, and this ring is too small for my fingers. I suppose it fits yours."
 70, dearie, I had forgotten that your hands had grown stout. That's too bad"
 "The whole performance is too bad. I don't see why you did it, Lucile," she said, ungratefully.
 When I told her that even with the gold of the brooch it cost me nearly my whole months allowance she showed no appreciation for my trouble and expense. I often regret that mother and are not more sympa- thetique, as the French say,

Cascade Dance For Guests At
 Convention

One of the most delightful social St- fairs of the early fall was the dance last evening at Cascade Plunge honoring the members of the southeastern division of The National Electric Light asso- citation, who are in convention in Bir- mingham this week, of which Col. T.. w. Martin is president. This affair was one of a number of the most in teresting courtesies extended during their visit.
 Among the guests last evening were Dr. and Mrs. Samuel R. Benedict, Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Barry, MT. and Mrs. G. H. Middlemiss, MT. and Mrs. Richard M. Johnston. Mir. and Mrs. T. l..

ANE day Dexter Haines and I were

ANE day Dexter Haines and I were VI looking into jewellers window,
 after lunching at his club. "The emerald," he said, lis my fayorite pre- cious stone" I asked whether it was the color that attracted him especially.
 "Yes," he said smiling, Thy mother brought me up on the color of emerald. Next to her Bible she pinned her feath to the teachings of good old Marcus Aurelius X--.
 The moment I reached home, I hunted up a copy of Marcus Aure- lius' sayings, and searched diligently until I found the quotation to which I thought Dexter must have alluded. I am glad I am not too indolent to inn prove myself@in this way when occas- ion demands.
 It seemed to me quite a remarkable coincidence that the very next day, when mother was leaving to take granny out to Uncle Johns farm, she handed me her little old ewerald brooch. had almost forgotten it.

My NeighborSays

Keep on the shelf of your sink a pint jar filled with all sizes of cork shoppers. They come in handy many times when you open a bottle and break the stopper.
 Vinegar and yeast should never be kept in stone jars. They possess an acid which attacks the glazing which blending with them, has a dangerous property.
 When making jam rub the bottom of the preserving pan with a little oil. It prevents burning and leaves no disagreeable taste.
 Apples that are to be baked should be pricked with a fork before being placed in the oven. If you do this you will find they will not break while cooking.

If the average husband displayed

If the average husband displayed as little gumption in store or office as he does in his own home, he !. would never get above being an er- 4rand boy. If he used as little tact and diplomacy in. handling other people as he does in handling his wife, he wouldn't have a single customer or client left. If he bun gled his business affairs as he does his domestic affairs, he would land in the bankruptcy court.
 The chief reason that marriage is a failure is because there is seldom more than one lobe of a mans brain married. He gives his heart to his wife. He bestows his name upon her, and endews her with all his worldly goods, except his gray matter. Yet that is the thing that is most needed in. dealing with a woman, and in making marriage success.

It does not seem to occur to him
 that there are very few situations
 so bad that they cannot be changed
 by a little delft manipulation, and
 that practically any bride can be
 taught to be good wife if her
 husband will spend as much time
 and trouble in training her as he
 would be training green sales
 man.
 The difficulty with men is that they are too optimistic before marriage and too pessimistic afterward. When one marries he thinks he is getting wife who will not only have the disposition of an angel, but the culinary ability oi a chef and the financial sagacity of a money lender.
 And when he finds out that what he has married is a petted and pam pered child who has never been taught to control herself, or how to do any thing useful, he proceeds to make q bad matter worse by visiting his cha grin and disappointment on his wife.

When a man makes a mistakes in business he doesn't chuck the whole thing into the discard. He sets to work to correct his error. When man makes a bad bargain he doesn't quit cold. He sharpens his wits and tries to turn what looks like loss into a profit.
 But when man makes mistake in matrimony he throws up his hands and says, "Oh, damn," or "Kismet," or whatever his phrase for the hopeless and inevitable is, and he either beats it to Reno or shuts his teeth, and bows his head and settles down to endure his misery.
