he was to meet some one downstairs
in the sporting club. I was surprised
at seeing him now. Also I was sur
prised to find that the stars had dis

proving the fact that February is not

gentler month occasionally here upon
the Riviera. So 1 gave up my plan

and a smile.
And now the red returned. I lost
thrice in succession, shifted my al,
legiance, and beheld black turn up.
In disgust l rose and walked to an
other table arrived in time to see
the Baronne dEsterelle being paid
off. She had backed seventeen for
the maximum in half a dozen ways,
and was receiving from the admiring
croupiers, always insoJently solicit
Gus for tips, nearly forty thousand
francs. The spectacle was disgust
ing. I had just seen a woman of
rare beauty suffering because her
husband had lost a sixth of what
this profiteers wife had won. My
sympathy is with loneliness and
charm. So I went to another table.
Fortune eluded me- l sought her
at every table in the Cercle Prive,
and then I looked for her in the
public rooms outside. But still she
escaped me. CHANGING at my watch,
l found that it was 10 o'clock, and

So I descended in the elevator to

LIKE BROWN LEAVES

THOSE high resolves which we
= made only yesterday are today
scurrying hither and thither, like
blown leaves in romping November
gale.
Twenty-four hours ago we were very
serious; this morning, in anticipation
of days pleasure, we are decidedly
frivolous.
We do not care to spoil the day
with sober thoughts.
We are young and the years lie be-
fore US. We can settle down" to the
steady motion of the treadmill when
we find we have to do it, but not
now, while the horizon is unsullied
by cloud and all the surroundings
about us are bright and inviting call
ing US to quaff from the golden goblet
the wine of pleasure.
Thus speak the thoughtless, doomed
in later years to be blown about like
dried leaves that have been bitten by
the frost and torn from the flashing
boughs of their mother-tree by the
gales.
We cannot always cling to the moth
er-breast or sleep beneath the roof
tree of our father.
Some day we must face the cold
winter alone, possibly IN no condition
to adapt ourselves to the change;
rudely awakened, perhaps, TO find the
merciless storms beating about us,
whipping and driving us at will like
withered leaves, to be trodden under
foot.

Something to Think About
By F. A. DALKER

SO now, while we are young, let us
store our minds with useful knowledge
and strengthen our bodies by taking
good care of them.
Let us look upon the heaps and clus-
ters of the blown leaves of humanity
in the parks of the great cities, along
the wharves, in the drab alleys, being
swept along by the passing winds,
knowing not where they are going or
what shall be their end. Notice their
rags and woebegone faces.
In the springtime they were clinging
to their mother-breast and sleeping
until late in the morning beneath the
roof-tree of their father Now they are
alone. The rigor Of winter is too
much for them to endure. They SILVER
in the snow and stabbing cold.
They are unframed, unskilled; their
minds are empty; the passing throngs
shun them, leaving them alone with
their own bitter reflections-blown
leaves, useless and forsaken.

THINK WHAT
YOU ARE
BY DOUGLAS MALLocH

THINK what you are! However
- weary,
Your task how small, your task how
great.
However dark the day or dreary,
Think what you are-the world
must wait
Until the thing you have begun
Is bravely dreamed and rightly done.
Think what you are. However lonely,
However much yourself you doubt,
Some task is yours, your problem only.
For you to take, and work 1t out.
Each day the worlds new labors start,
And in that world you have part.
Think what you are. You we're the
nearest
To take the task that now Is yours
To work the hardest, see ne clearest,
To work so well your work endures.
Your hands today will bless or mar
The world around. Think what you
