be turned on her inmost thought
and feelings, would the revelation
be very startling? Would it prove
Nora Lee an unworthy person?
Well, no one would do this, Of
course. Yet she hoped ardently
that such a test would find her
better and not worse than others.
She feared it wouldn't.
Fire in Veins
That night she was sitting at a
small ivory dressing table when
j Virginia came into the room. Nora
Lee was to be maid of honor at
the pretty home wedding. She
had never acted in this delight
full position before and was &C.
static about it. In two weeks
Virginia would be married and
Nora Lee would wear the wonder
full French dress embroidered in
q far-off convent-she would car
ry flowers ~ she would feel so
solemn and holy.
In this mirror she could now see
Virginia's madonna-like face, with
the gold hair in two braids over
her shoulders, the blue, chiffon
negligee giving look of unearthly
usefulness. Nora Lee thought:
"Oh, YOU white, angelic thing
what would you do if fire ran in
your veins?"
Virginia pulled a wicker stool
close to Nora Lees bench. She
talked about her trousseau. Did
Nora Lee really think it gorgeous?
She talked about Cleveland Wayne,
the man she was to marry, and
the wedding, and brides and love.

Nothing can bring you peace

Nothing can bring yen peace but

The sense Of peace is our own
making, Emerson declares in his
essay, ''Of elf-Reliance."
"a little folly Is desirable in
him that will not be guilty Of
stupidity"
.Montaigne, in his essay "Of
Vanity" declares the person who
never stoops to q little foolish
ness is apt to be stupid.

The CHILD PLAY
DR.. Reed Tells Parents the Reason
Why Every Child Should Play
Hard and Well.

) teaches him not only the exist
ence but the observance of the
rules or the game.
Then he soon learns there are
rules in the game Of love and
that they, too, are to be OBJ
served.
In this lesson he lays one more
foundation for his success.
Not only as success is based
upon his health but as it is based
upon his human associations.
In view Of these important
facts. there are several rules
for you to observe with respect
to the play of your children:
Don't arbitrarily interfere with
your child's play.
Don't be cross because he can
not instantly detach himself from
his play to answer your de-
mands.
Don't be surprised nor alarmed
nor angry If his play sometimes
results in a fight, but remem-
Der that to slearn to fight Il
to learn to do the one thing
that he will have to do in one
form or another during all Of
his life.
As your boy sticks to his
play 50 he will later stick to
his job, and sticktoitiveness is
cardinal virtue. II he plays
at making toy houses now, he
may play at making real houses
in later life.
Play Is agreeable activity. Try,
therefore, to hitch on the play
feature to all Of your child's
assigned tasks.
Try to make a game of every
thing; of life itself.
If child can be brought up
to look at all OF life az q great
game he is likely to develop
into a dead game sport" Of
the best type.
But when you teach him that
life is but a game, the game
/. Of games, teach him that its
foundation is the game Of health.
There Is lots Of real sport
in the game of keeping well
for both child and man. IL they
can be made to see It.
It's a great triumph when
vicious longing Is repressed OF
suppressed to achieve a greater
joy that lies beyond.
