ness first"
"What wonderful woman" thought
Jack as he left the Office. And Cecilia
thought, "What a delightful young
man-but how utterly and densely
stupid"
Jack had to see Cecilia many times
after that ION business" and he was
invited to call at her house, too, where
they dropped business and talked Of
other things. In short. they became
very intimate and Jack proposed.
"Oh, Jack" she said, Il am sure
shall never marry anyone but you.
But think, dear, you are so stupid In
business matters. Your fortune and
mine, combined, would take lot Of
looking after. Can't you, won't you,
try and get grasp of business af-
fairs? l tell you what I'll do. If, at
the end of a year, you can prove to
me that you have mastered the prin-
ciples of business, l will marry YOU"
Cecilia was crying now, but be-
tween her sobs she managed to say,
ABOUT the no terQe!
DO as you please with It," re-
turned Jack, "I'll send you power
of attorney"
For year Cecilia did not see Jack.
Some said he was still in the city
some that he was hunting in the
Rockies. Cecilia devoted herself to
the Rio Verde. At first everything
went well. And then things began to
happen. The bears got hold of the
stock and clawed the life out of 1t /;
the bulls tossed 1t upon their horns,
only to throw it back again to the
bears. For a while it would rank
among the must decidedly inactive
stock, and then suddenly begin strange
and unaccountable gyrations. Cecilia
was in great distress; she was los
ing her own money and Jacks too. |
All her financial acumen seemed to be |
of no avail. Then, when things were
at the very worst and a crash seemed I
Rio Verde began to steady
itself
The stock went up and up in a calm,
healthful climb. Rio Verde became
standard and unassailable. And the

Business Must
Come First
(Copyrkht.)
BY H. IRVING KING

CECILIA PATTERSON was youn
~ lady possessed not only Of goo
locks and will Of her own. but o
lands and fine houses and cash In tn
bank" Both OF her parents wer
dead, and Cecilia had inherited fren
them her good looks her strong win
and her money.
Jack Edgecomb was year or two
older than Cecilia when his father
died. and had been so busy enjoying
himself all his life that, as he said
he had not had time to get married y
He had hunted big game in Africa
yachted and Travelled. The death of
his father now forced Jack, for the
nrst time in his life, to make an eff
fort to comprehend that complicated
and somewhat mysterious science
called business, for the investments
and financial interests of the elder
Edgecomb had been many, various and
extended.
Among his fathers papers Jack
found bundle of documents relating
to the "Rio Verde Copper Mines"
with a memorandum, "See Steinitz &
Co." Unable to make head or tail out
OF the papers, Jack looked up Steinitz
4 Co., In the directory and went to
the address given.
The outer Office was a large room
where, beyond little railed-off space,
were several clerks, most of them well
along in years.
Please take my card to Mr..
Steinitz," said Jack, and an angular
typist, rising without a word, took
the card and disappeared
Presently she returned and motioned
Jack toward the inner office. He en-
tered and, to his surprise, saw that
the room was tenanted only by re-
markably pretty young woman of be-
tween 20 and 80 who said "Sit down.
won't you, Mr.. Edgecomb?'
I-er-wished-to see Mr.. Stein
itz, IL might" replied Jack.
"Oh, that's all right" laughed the
young lady. There isn't any Stein.
III. am Steinitz & Co. People are
often surprised. You see there was q
Steinitz when father first went into
business; but he died long before ]

The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1924-02-07
For Jour
Ddlentine Pdrfu

COURAGEOUS goodness said Cupid
~ looking at the calendar, "here
am sitting around and dawdling hours
away when it's my busiest time in the
whole year." James," he cried,
bring me that culver of arrows and
the polish. I've got to get ready for
st. Valentines dayl"
And while Cupid is busy getting
ready for his annual archery program,
there are plenty of others who are pre-
pairing to receive him, fortifying them
selves against his invasion or prepar-
ing a fitting welcome, as the case
may be. -
Naturally, nobody wants to take a
chance with this skillful archer without
plenty of others present to help defect
his flying arrows, so there will be
parties, parties, and then more parties.
First, a Valentine party calls for a
clever form Of invitation. A verse
original if possible-could set forth
the wish of the hostess in an appropri-
ate jingle, running something like this:
I beg to indite that a gay little sprite,
VIII stop at my home on ST. Valen-
tines night:
Can you meet him at eight, on this
special date,
I'm expecting you over so please don't
be late.
Another invitation might read:
On Saint Valentines Day
VIII you come to my party2
I'll see that you ave
A welcome right hearty.
The verse can be written on dainty
Valentine postcards, or correspondence
cards ornamented with Cupids and ar
rows or with red heart seals.
Another verse may invite the guest
in this wise:
The Superintendent is pleased to
invite
Your presence at eight on Saint Valen-
tines Night;
Hearts that are brave loving and
true
VIII be ready and waiting to welcome
you.
The password is Love, which alone has
the power
To gain you a~dmittance to Cupid's
bower.
Note paper decorated with Valentine
could be used for this form Of in
.vitation. For a decoration to conform
to the first line of the verse, an i'm
red heart, hung against the
of the front door would be ap-
.%ropriate.
Old-fashioned valentines, with lace
paper and sentimental verses, make APP
propriate invitations. SO do the old
The valentine party rarely takes the
form of a masquerade, but the hostess
plans caps and favors for the
to give a festive air to the
event.
Almost any crude cap of crepe paper !
IAN be made highly decorative by add
ng long tassels or fringe at either side.
Heavy necklaces Of cardboard with
ruf1e of red crepe paper hung about
he neck on a ribbon are effective and
made.
The jazz bracelet Is a novelty con-
listing of a ribbon, to be worn about
he wrist, with long red and white
repe paper streamers.

GOOD Morrow To You,
My Valentine!"

MANY curious old charms are salt
49, to be potent On st. Valentine
eve-all, like most charms ever invent
ed, connected with the procuring OF
husbands. Even before surplus woman
dawned on the scene, this seems tC
have been a subject Of much anxiety
Five bay leaves, pinned respectively
to the four n and the center OF
the pillow, are said to bring certain
dreams of the future partner, if the
sleeper has gone to bed without eating
or speaking.
Another infallible spell was to write
the names of admirers on separate
pieces of paper, enclose them in clay
balls and throw them into water. The
one which came to the surface first
contained the name of the fated
spouse.
1t is a sign of great good luck if the
swain you favor should be the first
man seen on February IA. The mod.
ern girl who does not pin her faith
entirely to signs and omens, can al
ways practice the use of a shrewd
maiden Of long ago., who, knowing
and shut my eyes all the morning till
he came, for 1 would not have seen
another man before him for all the
world"
She was f%ar-seeing and lucky. But
if she had set eyes first on the wrong
man, she would have welded him, so
a poet tells u.s.
Last Valentine, the day when birds of
kind
Their paramours with mutual chirpings
Afeld I went, amid the morning dew,
To milk my kline (for so should house
wives do),
Thee first I spied, and the first swain
we see,
In spite of fortune, shall our true love
be-"
Some of US wish that a quaint old
custom practiced in the time of Pepys
was still prevalent-the rule that a
man must give a present to the first
woman he saw on February Ia. Pepys,
gay old rascal that he was, much be-
walled himself that his own tribute
had to be offered to his wife-a pro
ceeding he considered very dull, when
there were plenty of pretty young
girls at the light-hearted court of
Charles II.
Old people still remember the time
when valentines were as popular as
Christmas cards, and the postman
groaned under his load on the morning
of the 18th. This is still the case in
the United States, but the idea of
courtship is no longer much connected
with these bright cards.
Nowadays Shakespeare's greeting
Good morrow, tbs st. Valentines day,
All the morning betime,
l a maid at your window,
To be your valentine"
reminds US of the passing of a
delightful old custom.
Christianity brought the custom of
placing each feast day under the
of a saint, and so st. Val
entine, who never married himself, be-
the patron saint of lovers.-The
lady's Companion.

Grand opera being under discussion,
a Plunkville citizen was asked if he
had ever seen much of it. By way
of reply he had this to say:
Last year | saw In opera called "La
Boheme.' There was a girl in it named
Mimi. She was the heroine, in fact.
Along about the third act, when / had
to leave, she was pretty sick. But she
must be better now. because l see the
opera will be back here next week"

Salmon Eggs Are Used
To Lure Mounain Trout

Salmon eggs are another delicacy
that the mountain, %cutthroat, dolly var
den and rainbow trouts of the west
ern ranges are very partial toward.
This bait is fished in the swift and
tumbling waters of the little mountain
rivers of Idaho, Washington and Ore
gon to a large extent, as they are OBJ
tanned in the vicinity of the great sal
mon canneries.
Used in connection with a small
spinner or double spoon spinner these
eggs are a deadly killer on the west
for the gray trout of the northern
Iakes.-Sportsmen's Digest.

One Reason
for Nervous
Disorders

VOUR doctor can tell you that
nervous disorders are very COM
mon among Americans. One reason
for this is found in the fact that they
are great coffee drinkers.
Coffee contains caffeine, a drug,
prescribed by doctors as an emergency
stimulant for the heart and nervous
system. It has a tendency to increase
blood pressure, develop heart irreg-
ularities and cause digestive dis
turbances.
If you feel that coffee is not good
for you, serve Postum as your meal
time drink.
Postum is a pure cereal beverage
that refreshes and satisfies. It is alb
solutely free from caffeine or any
other irritating drug.
Try a cup Of Postum with your
dinner or supper tonight. Postum is
sold everywhere.
