Th rtiitlat (txiny mr tailing u that
environment U mora lmivr.rWit for lhn
IcaJ and Mental development thsn Is
even heredity. I believe In It more thun
I do tnythtng else, and I m sure that
In a treat many Instances we can create
our own environment.
Gorla of today are tontine to he loavitl
ful. All over the world we have beauty
doctors, advice to the beauty anekers
and all manner of tlilnaa on the same
subject that are frequently of no nod
whatever. If every arlrl seeking beauty
hsd a happy environment there would
be no more trouble of any kind, and If
one Is not born In a happy environment
then the thine to do Is to create one.. '
Suppoee, to take a concrete example,
a alrl la surrounded with thlng-a that do
not please her. Suppose her home life
Is not happy, that ahe Is living In an
atmosphere of a nsgBlng quality. First,
she becomes frMful and morbid, emerg
ing from her fits of Introspection only
until she la plunged nnc more In the
environment she dislikes. Gradually her
entire nature I changed, she becomes
herd to please, rantakerous.
Vo you think ahe will keep any lasting
beauty during a process of undermining
or this klndT Not at all. The thing to
do then la this: Have a spot In your,
home that you can freely call your ova
and make an atmosphere for this room.
Tesrn not to hear the things going on
about you. Envelop yourself In a per
sonslity so' heavy that It la Impossible
for people to pierce It unless It Is agree,
sble to you. Oh. yes. It ran be dona,
although it sounds rather hard Just at '
first.
Have something In your room that no
other room in the house, can boast of,
whether It be your favorite picture or a
blot of fascinating color In the shape of
a patted flower. You will long to get
home Just to be in your own room; you
will begin soon to recognise the things
that you like, to differentiate them from
I the things you are not fond of. That
' means that you are building up a per
! sonallty which will make for your entire
environment later on.
j As you proceed with this character
I building you will find It extending to
everything you do. It la far-reaching
j in Us Influence and Is cspable of being
,' stretched and stretched until you get the.
i greatest benefit from It. An act. of. vol!
j tion becomes a , habit sometimes in so
I short a tlmn.aa a week. ,, Try to -bay
j your day raada up of -good habits ao
I that your personality as- it develops '
! makes for a strong environment. The
' things you . do for yourself are Just as
- important In your life aa the things that
! people do for you. Try to remember that
every visible effort that you make cornea
back . to you a thousand fold in the en
vironment -that you are creating. What
you inherit from Another is. something
you cannot help beyond fighting to con
quer it If if be something undesirable.
But what you inaJte out of life Is your
own to do with as you will.
. Make your fcody'theri an outer reflec

father, the more he finds in him a cpm
rade and companion In everything, the
greater will ,be his rcsp?ct, provided al
ways that the father knows how to main
tain that rckpect.
Naturally, a boy believes In his "father,
and that he la .a little wiser, a .little bet
ter than others. He likes to quote his
father to other boys and to say: "My
father says so, and it must be true!"
Hie father Is to him almost an Ideal of
manhood. ' .
, Although the hoy looks to him for guid
ance and depends on his wisdom, It is a
mistake for a parent to assume the at
UtvMO of being an Infallible person. Let
him be honest with himself and not as
sume artificial dignity, and never pretend
to possess characteristics which are not
his own. Ho may feel that the trust and
confidence whlcu his boy given him should
be an incentive to the noblent efforts In
example and advice,' the most determined
efforta to win characteristics which are
worthy, and to correct himself faults
which he would not like to see reproduced
in his son.
Boys are quick to detect Inconsistency.
Nothing creates distrust and lack of re
spect more than Inconsistent conduct.
The father who has moods, sometimes
scolding, even punishing, sometimes In
dulging a boy beyond all common sense,
cannot expect to lead his boy to a rea
sonable, happy boyhood. Scolding never
does any good.' It Is an irritation, an
annoyance. .
Bodily punishment is absolutely wrong.
It is lowering u a man's own nature to
inflict corporal punishment on tile child;
it makes llm ashamed, or It hardens his
conscience. As for the boy, he goes hia
wy with anger, resentment or hatred In
hia heart. Corporal purUhment ia bar
barous,, and is the resource of the savage
and not the wisdom of the reasoning,
loving father.
Helpful and constant companionship
and Uonest counsel from his father ought
to keep a boy out of trouble, and prove
far better than any sort of punishment
for getting ' into It If a boy has done
wroritf he should be met with patience,
k'ndnees, but flrmncKS. It lakes time to
talk things over, to reason with a boy, to
persi.adc him to see the right. It Is only
by patient, Intelligent affection that a
father cn develop In his boy the strong,
fine, hardy qualities of manliness. To
understand his boy he must study him.
The study la well worth whllq.
"Who would be a comrade with his
children must first be Just with them,"
said a eensible father. Truly, he must
treat them as Individuals, respecting their
rights, seeing things from mir stand
point. They have the right to be understood.

And he handed the nice looking office
boy an envelope and laughingly aqueesed
the boy's chin and rumpled his hair. The
boy grinned delightedly and popped the
envelope Into his Inxlde pocket Then Ned
walked over to June and handed her an
envelope. It was larger than the others.
Ho bowed to her very courteously as ho
presented It. He spoke a few pleasant
words, but. did not smile frankly, and
she cast down her eyes. There seemed to
be a distinct understanding that she had
pot earned her envelope'
A poor." shivering old woman sat- hud
dled in a doorwsy. Ned stopped, looked
at the old woman a moment and then
walked across to her and handed her a
coin. Ho was very magnificent about It
In spito of his companion. He broadened
his . chest with the exhilaration of the
good deed, thsn he smiled down at his
wife most generously. Yes, his wife, for
tho old iv oman was gqne and June, in
luxurious furs, but huddled, was In. the
doorway. It was eh to whom he had
given the coin!
A an and tattered, pinched and hun
gry looking little boy stood mutely b
slde them piteous appeal la his upturned
eyes, and held out his clawlike little
palm. Nd. beaming with kindly good
will, placed a coin In the outstretched
palm and put Ms hand in benedic
tion on the head ef June, for H was ahe,
and not the wan "little boy, wlio stood
there plteously begging!
What wonderful scene' was tills? A
'bleak, wild country with huge, strange
blrda flying over (t and no human habita
tion In sight. There were ponderous
creatures, though, two of them a big,
ponderous jawed savage with matted hair
who carried an enormous club over one
shoulder. Behind him trudged. a smeller
figure, a woman, with matted hair barg
ing to her waiat. In ber nose was e
ring, and to thia ring waa attached a
leal her. thong, ths other eind of which
waa in the man's hand. He was taking
home Ma bride' . Music, the wedding
march,' the little gr y, ivy hung chapel
at Brynnort. Was that Ned coming down
the 'aisle?. Was that June just behind
him? Was there a leather thong In Ned s
hand? oh! Wss the other end of that
thong-i
There was a audden jolt and arreechlnu
noise, a tattls and a bang and the sound
of hissing steam. June Warner jumped
wildly to her feet and gased around the
little compartment. There were the flow
era, the boxes of cundy, the scattered
rice. Comprehension came to her slowly,
for she was still half In her dream. The
train had stopped. 'She snatched up her
cloak,' jumped' up on the seat and brought
down the paper bag which contained her
prim little traveling" bat;' then she jerked
open the door. In the opening she stopped
with a sudden' flash of memory. - Med's
money, the first of his generous bounty,
the first . of , her pair for . being ' Ned's
wifn! She jerked it from her belt,- threw
the loose bills on the seat, ran down the
steps, jumped to the ground and sped
across the tracks. '
As the train started to pull out she had
a mad Impulse to run after It, to have
It stopped, to call Ned, but there was no
movement In her.
Across the tracks In front of the station
a man, -tall, splendidly groomed, black
Vandyked, stood watching her Intently.
CHAPTEJH III.
Ned Warner, aa the train, pulled out.
from tnat momentous station, was m the
wash room of the smoker, with a pleas
ant smile on his Hps. making the meet
elaborate toilet of his existence. He waa
to have the honor of dining alone for the
first time with" his charming wife. .
Thoroughly complacent, he strolled
back through the car to awaken the
awceteat girl In the world.
"June!" be called, and turned to bend
over her seat. .
be was not there! He hurried out to
the vestibule. Not there! And new for
the first time he saw the three ten dol
lar bills on the seat One of them was
slightly torn; all of them were crumpled.
Frantically he rang the bell; then 'be
rushed out to meet the white toothed
porter on the way.
"Where's my wife?" he demanded.
The porter's eyes widened until they
made his teeth look gray.
1" 'Deed I , don't know hass!". he '.re
plied, as scared by contagion alone as if
he had been aecuaed of throwing the
pretty little bride out of the window
"Honest to the Lord, I don't knew!"
The delirious search began from that
Instant. In about two minutes the con
due ton the brakemen, all the porters
and balf the passengers were searching
for June Warner.
Ned. In his most lively vision of all.
saw her dropping off the train, crushed
and mangled beyond all recognition.
No vision, however, portrayed to htm
his bride slowly crossing the traeks
toward the black Vandyked maa. As
she approached the man gave her a sharp
scrutiny, snuioe and strolled across the

(To Be Continued Tomorrow.)'
. BY JACK BINNS.
Expert Wireless Operator who was. on
the Republic.
How vital command of the all ia to a
battling army has been vividly portrayed
In the reports of Colonel flwinton, the
official "eyewltneaa" with the British
headquarters staff.
The allies have .been able, In a fair
measure, . to attain such., an ascendancy
by means of the .large number of their
machines fitted with wireless telegraphy.
; With machines ao equipped an' army
commander Is enabled to order 'bis pilots
to make ear additional reeonnoisanee
maid a necessary through unexpected de
velopments while the machine is still
loft. . M
The problem of communicating with
aeroplanes while In flight demanded the
attention of wireless ungineers from the
moment the art of aviation passed from
the sphere of demonstration to that of
utility. ' .
It .was an easy matter to design a suit
able set for an aeroplane or en airship,
but the main difficulty was experienced
In devising an aerial and ground connec
tion,' , ; .
The first real sueceee came Vlth the
Wellman dirigible airship, which set out
from Atlantic City In an effort to cross
the Atlantic. The set Installed on this
machine proved eminently ruocessful In
that It called the steamer Trent to the
ah of the crew when the dirigible was
on the point ef collapsing, out of the
beaten track of steamships.
Jack Irwin, who was operator on the
airship, told me after the flight that the
chief difficulty had been caused by the
noise of the engines, which had to be
stopped every time be received signals.
In the airship America's esse the
ground connection was made through the
"trailer" that carried extra fuel for the
motors, which floated ht the sea and was
attached by means of a cable to the
dirigible.
During later experiments It was found
that when a balancing wire was used
underneath the, Tying, machine equal
in capacity te the a rial above It, ground
connections could , be dispensed with.
This discovery made wireless on aircraft
possible. . ,
In this country' the first successful
communication was made four years ago
In Florida, when Ralph McCurdy com
municated with the Miami station, three
miles away from the point where he waa
making his flight. This waa followed
shortly afterward by a successful com
munication over forty miles, while st en
altitude of 1.908 fet, from the machine
ef Ueuteneet Beck, United States army.
. In the meantime, tbeae experiments
were elaborated abroad, and their results
standardised, until now aa almost perfect
set has been svolved. This set, though
necessarily small, compact and light,
comprises every detail of a regulation
wireless set The whole outfit weighs
only 1H0 pounds,-yet gives two-thirds of
one electric horsepower corresponding
roughly to a range of 100 mile,
The set Is divided Into three, units
bolted to the framework of the fusilage
underneath the pilot's sent' One unit
consists of the motor . uencrator an )
rotating spark gap, which are diHven
from the propeller shaft. The Second unit
comprises the transmitting gear proper,
and the third the receiving apparatus.
.The aerial is arranged In the form of
a triangle, with tho base stretched across
the wings and the apex at the tall of the
machine.
With monoplanes the aerial Is' raised on
the center pylon, and In place Of a coun
terbalancing capacity the .apex ' of ' lie
aerial la left open and a trailing wire
drops over the tall skid of the machine.

Of comparative nutritive values. Dr.
Hutchison, the famous dietitian, says
that meat contains practically 75
water, macaroni only 10.. In other
words, when you pay $1.00 for meat,
you pay 75c of that $1.00 for water
And it's so easy to digest and so easy
to prepare Faust Macaroni. Besides
servinj it ,as the whole meal, you
should 6erve it often as a side dish.
