and Noel Veritzen, and I feared there was in her heart q feeling that the cabaret dancer was harried under dog with every one against him. That he would be dangerously adroit and experienced in strengthening that feeling. if he were given the opportunity. l was certain, and a feeling of importance and something very like panic swept me.
 There was but one thing to do, however, and that was to be rter- nally vigilant in my watch over her. Without her suspecting my motive, I must contrive to accompany her upon her walks in the park, and her trips to the tutors Philip Nerit- zen had engaged for her. If my work prevented this then I must see that Katherine managed so that her walks with Junior coincided with Mary's outings. And we must make all this appear to be acci- dental.
 Jack Bobs Up Again
 IL was a hcrculean task, I said 10 myself but as the days went on l found all our adroit espionage for Katherine nobly abetted me was apparently not needed. True. during Mary's park walks. which Katherine or l shared, Jack Leslie appeared twice within the woolt fol- lowing my discussion of him with Dicky's niece.
 Both encounters had the appear ance of accident, and he confined his conversation 10 the most stereo- typed platitudes. remaining with us the shortest possible period Of time. But after the second meeting he might have vanished from the earth for anything we saw of him.
 Probably discouraged the cor don you've thrown around the quarry" Katherine commented. That chaps too indolent to play any game that's made difficult for him."

Fur the most important coat a" manner of ingenious ways. In ad- dition 10 making the collar and cuffs. it borders one or both fronts, trims the bottom. or appears in patch-like pieces on the skirt section. In flared models the godets are sometimes made of fur.
 When fur is used to border the fronts, such long-haired pelts as fox and wolf are the skins most fre- quently employed; if used for patches or godets. the flatter furs are more successful. such skins. for in- stance, as caracal, squirrel. beaver. mink or astrahkan.
 An unusual use of fur distin- guishes the street coat sketched to- day. Here oblong pieces of gray squirrel trim the wide reyers which are further ornamented with strips of cording in self material. Mar row. bands of fur are also used to accent the faring gauntlet cuffs.
 The material of this distinguish ed wrap is jewcltone in a soft, medium gray. And because of the beauty of both fabric and fur. the lines have been kept narrow and slim.
 The long ,revers trimmed with cording and fur accent the slender effect of this gray cloth street coat.

Peter Rabbit, who has nothing to do but play, really never has known the real joy of play. Peter is always sorry for people who have to work. and people who have work to do are always sorry for Peter. That is the way of the world. Peter thinks that working is a waste of time, but of course Peter is mistaken.
 Every fall, just on the edge of cold weather Peter has discon- tented spell. The only trouble is he has no one to play with. If he could play by himself, he would be all right. Very few people want to play by themseves. Most folks want some- body else to play with, and in this Peter is just like other folks. So it Is that at this certain season of the year he has period of discontent. Everybody he knows has either gone away, or is getting ready to go away. or is working to prepare for the coming winter. Nobody wants to play. And not a few of Peter's friends turn up their noses at him because he finds nothing to do but play.
 Peter delights to hang around where others are at work. so he spent a great deal Of time over where the Squirrel cousins were

THERMOMETERS
 AND COMMON SENSE
It's a cold morning.
 How did you know?

Did you look at the thermometer or did your tingling fingers shout the news9 Perhaps the thermometer verified your own opinion but you knew it was cold before yoN looked. Your common sense told you.
 Exactly.
 When you take Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound or any other medicine-how do you know 1t helps you? Do you ask the neighbors? Do you try to figure 1t out on a scientific basis?
 Certainly not.
 You feel better and your common sense tells you what caused it.
 Science may confirm your own opinion, but you knew it all the time.
 Try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Then judge for yourself.

 Mrs. W. o. Blewett, Route B, Box 197a, Lakeland, Florida, says: "I first took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound when I was a girl.

what happens to all these brilliant children when they grow up is like ly to be informed that most of them are never heard of again. be- cause their emotional handicaps are so great that they are unable to make proper social adjustments.
 The psychologist of the Bureau of Childrens Guidance of New York cit.' found that Is per cent of chill dren referred to that bureau since it's establishment were supernormal children who manifested undesirab ble behavior
 Their social unadjustment was SO obvious that they failed to progress in school. 20 per cent of them be- ing average for their grades. Some times a gifted child has been low cred in it's grade four times because it did not adjust itself to the routine work.
 Adapting Behavior
 The supernormal child Is placed in competition with older children who are emotionally more mature than he, and he finds himself un- able to adapt himself 10 their type of behavior He thereupon slumps in his work and Is denoted.
 In some schools special arrange ments are made for children with exceptional ability. and promotion in the routine work of the grades is adjusted to the physical and emo ti,nal development of the child.
 The brilliant boy who at g or 10 years of age has reached the high school is hardly adapted to contact with girls at high school dance. or to play on the high school football team. Nevertheless. he is brought into contact with activities of this type to which he is utterly un- suited.

 It may have been half hour later that Margrot heard Jack and Angela talking bout Honey Lou again.
 That is. Angela was talking about her, as she and Jack sat to- gether on a seat under the stairs.

Nadge's Plan to Sidetrack Jack
 Ieslic's Attentions.


 AS Mary Harrison made the cryp- tic statement concerning Jack Les- lie that it was always a good plan to have two strings to your bow, ac- companying it with the disclaimer ot any romantic interest in him. she sprang to her feet. caught hold of my hands and pulled me up oppo- site her.
 Look here. Auntie Madge," she said, laughing, but l caught note of earncstnoss beneath the mirth. T want you to stop worrying about me. I'm not going to promise to snub Jack Leslie il I happen 10 see him. for I'm not kindergarten kiddie, you know, but it's extremely unlikely that he will show up around here again."
 Her shapely little head raised it. myself that I had given no prohibit ton nor asked for any kind of prom ise from her concerning Jack Les lie. Patently her wayward, undisci- plined spirit. already rebelling against Philip Neritzens drastic rec gime of work and study with no play. was prepared to make an is sue of this chance acquaintanceship with the cabaret dancer. Whatever means I took to nullify the effects of such an association, active oppo- sition would not be included in my program.
 T haven't asked you for any promise Mary" I said quietly.
 "Im Not in Love With Him.
 "No, I know you haven't she returned. And just for that I'll assure you of one thing, on honor. I'm not in love with him. nor Is there the slightest danger Of my being. But I can't quite-oh, never mind. Let's go homc."
 She tucked her hand through my arm and drew me along the path way. I was sure her unfinished sen tence meant that she could not quite accept my version of the old college scandal affecting Jack Leslie

Honey Lou stared at her darkly. So that was why Jack suddenly had begun to pine for a little cot tage and the kind of woman who would smear paint upon the kitchen screens and hold com munion with tEe lima beans," was it?
 "I didn't tell you this to stir up strife between you and Jack, un- derstand me-" Angela's soft voice ran on. q only thought sought to put you on your guard, Honey Lou. You see. I'm still your friend, even if you do accuse me of bleach ing my hair and running to your mother-in-law with tales about you" She smiled as she said that, and Honey. Lou saw that she spoke only In fun. It passed off as joke.
 But about this dress" Angela put her arm around Honey Lou's little shoulders and they turned back to the dress that was like peach blossoms spanglod with rain drops. You should have it. There's no doubt that clothes make or unmakc a girls looks But don't ask me whether you can af- ford it or not. You know best whether you can afford to buy it."
 T cant. That's easy" Honey Lou laughed and passed q caress- ing hand down the soft pcach-col- ored skirt. Her eyes were full of longing.
 You'd be dream in It." said Angela. And you wouldn't have to pay for 1t until next month"
 Honey Lou took it. She carried it away in her arms. And In her heart was d terrible feeling that she had done wicked thing in buying it.
 But on inc night of Angela's party she twas thankful that she had it to wear. She dressed early and was all ready to so when Jack came home from work.
 He was still in his overalls and so he did not put his arms around her, but stood with them folded. looking down at her.
 You're the most beautiful thing that God ever put the breath of life into" he said, and he said lit reverently.
 And all at once Honey Lou was sure of him again--sure that he was above flirting with Miss Ayres at the office and that he of herself for donbting him, t>~ and glad that pride had kept her away from going down to the mills to take a look at Miss Ayres.
 It was Angela who brought up Miss Ayres' name that night. There were sixteen people at the long table with its candles. its flowers. and it's lace cloth.
 Jack sat at her right, looking. so handsome that it was all Honey Lou could do to stay away from him at her own end of the table. She was sitting between Timothy Donegal and Steve

THIRD INsTALLMENT.
Women and Child labor.

Women and child labor was merci-
lessly exploited. Engels informs us
that the Report of the Factories In.
quiry Commission of 1888, relates
that the manufacturers began to en-
ploy children, rarely of five, often Of
six, very often Of seven, and usually
of eight and nine years; that the work
ing day often lasted fourteen to six
teen hours, exclusive of meals and in
tervals; that the manufacturers per-
mitted overlookers to flog and NAL
treat the children, and often took an
active part in doing so themselves
But even this long working day
failed to satisfy the greed OF the CAPT.
talist. Their aim was to make the
capital invested In the buildings and
the machinery produce the highest re.
turn by every available means, to
make II work as actively as possible.
Hence the manufacturers introduced
the shameful system OF night work.
One manufacturer testified that
during the two years that night work
was carried on in his factory, the mum.
Der OF illegitimate children born was
doubled, and such Generalization pre-.
vailed that he was obliged to give up
night work. Equal horrors we're
perpetrated In the mines. where men,
women and children we're indiscrim-
inately employed underground"
The Truck System.
The capitalist usually gathered his
workers round his factory or mine,
housed them in miserable novels al
rents, and compelled them
to buy bad food ct shops where the
