KIND WORDS
BY George A. Bennett

Loving win cost but little
Journeying up the hill Of life
But it makes the weak and weary
Stronger, Drawer for the strife.
You can't count them only trifles
What to earth are sun and rain
Seldom are kind words wasted,
Seldom are they said in vain.
When the cares of life are many,
And its burdens heavy grow,
Think of weak ones close behind you.
If you love them, tell them so.
What you count of little value
Has an almost magic power
And beneath its cheering sunshine
!. Hearts will blossom like a flower.
So as up life's hill we journey,
Let us scatter on the way
Kind words for they are sunshine,
On dark and cloudy day.
Grudge no kind word or action
As along through life you go,
For there are weary ones around you
If you love them, tell them so.

Middle Age.

There is a period which may be
anywhere from 80 to co, when a wom-

rible expression-middle age. Youth
is delightful and old age graceful, but
middle age, like iron gray hair, isn't
one thing or the other. It's betwiXt

Yet it's a state we all come to, one
time or another
Probably we'll struggle against put
ting 1t off as long as possible. That is
all right, but what about the time
when there's nothing further to be
done, when young becomes youngish,
and finally even our most charitable
friends look upon us as a middle-aged
woman?
There's nothing 10 do but make the

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Last Chance.

Marks failure with Jessica left him
at loss. What was there for him
to do now?
What he wanted to do was to leave
instantly for Boston. He needed the
more mature understanding of Irene
Martin. She seemed more than ever
desirable to him now and he wondered
why he had postponed asking her to
marry him until now.
But after he had reported his inter
view with Jessica to Maude, carefully
deleting it, because he said nothing
about the talk Jessica and he had
had about poetry, and she had broken
down and wept, he felt that he could
not leave just yet.
She's apt to run off with him at
any time. particularly now that she's
been crossed" she wept pitifully.
"She threatened once before to do
that. oh, Mark, we must think of
something. You must help me-"
''She won't run off," he said con-
solingly Her heart is set on a
fashionable wedding with bridesmaids
and all that flum-dummery.
"Oh, but girls of her age think it's
romantic to elope, too"
Not Jessica," he said decidedly.
He might have added that he didn't
think Jessica was romantic about Ray
mond Townely, but he didn't. He
wondered If any of the rather cruel
things he had said to her would make
any impression after they had sunk
into her subconscious mind. Did she
really have any depth, or did he just
imagine it because of q girlish fond
ness she had for beautiful words?
They were in Maude's sitting room:
He remembered the first night he had
arrived here, the faint Tilt of the
