All the sheen in the pasture hur ried down the hillside toward the bars to look at Snowball. And soon doiens of deputes might have been heard. -He i!M "He isn't!" "He'a sheared!" "He's not!- About half the flock were sure Johnnie Green had Dont b ud, youn .majtl" Aunt Nancg scolded. sheared Snowball; while the other half were just as sure that Snow ball still wore his fleece. At last Aunt Nancy Ewe went close to Snowball and walked all the way around him. And when she joined her friends, she announced that she. had solved the mystery. "Snowball is sheared on one side only!" she exclaimed. It was true. And the moment the flock learned what had happened, they set up a deafening baaing. "Baa-ba-ba-ia-ba!" they laughed. "Now who's a sight?" the asked Snowball. "Now who looks funny?" Poor Snowball couldn t say a word. He hung his head. For he was terribly ashamed of his appear ance. "It's not my fault," he wailed at last. "When Johnnie Green had me half sheared that horrid boy Red came along and asked Johnnie to go fishing. And you know Johnnie Green 1 He can't miss a fishing tris "Ha!" cried Aunt Nancy Ewe. And she flung at Snowball the very words he had used the day before. "Johnnie Green's 'tomorrow' means 'never'!" "Oh! I hope not!" cried Snowball. That would be awful!' . Somehow Snowball managed to get through that dreadful day. But the following day he gave up all hope; for Johnnie Green never came near him. Nor did he come the next day, nor the next, nor the next. Little by little the sheep stopped teasing Snowball. Little by little he became used to having one side ot him sheared and the other side thick with fleece. For some time he tried to keep as much out of sieht is possible, graz ing along the stone wall where he i could bury himself in the bushes whenever one of the flock strayed near him. Or if he couldnt hide, he took pains to stand so that only one side of him should show. -' It was a long while before his neighbors stopped smiling when they saw him. But finally there Were only two in the flock that couldn't seem to forget how ridiculous Snowball looked. These were the young black ram and old Aunt Nancy Ewe. And perhaps they can't be blamed, be cause Snowball had once openly made fun of them. When they were near him Snowball was very uncom fortable. But with the rest of the flock he felt more at his ease. And sometimes he even went so far as to say that he enjoyed being only, half sheared. "On a cool day I find it pleasant to turn my clipped side toward the sun," he would remark. "And if there's a chilly wind I don't have to shiver. I let it blow against my fleecy side; and I never feel it!" In two weeks Snowball was claim ing that he preferred to be only half sheared. " Maybe that was true. Maybe he was only trying to make himself think it was. Anyhow, Johnnie Green came into the pasture one day and called to him. Snowball bounded down the grassy slope toward the bars. v . And when he came back to the pas ture, sometime later, he didn't look very different from his companions. One side of him, however, showed a pinkish tinge, because Johnnie Green had just sheared that side very close. And the fleece on his other side had already begun to grow out a bit. . But Snowball didn't mind that. He had a pink nose, always. And he sai dthat pink was his favorite color. And never, again did he laugh at anybody, no matter how queer a per son might look.

' Dear Miss Fairfax: Maybe you can help me out, for I have had an argument with my family and I don't want to do what they say. I have been - asked to go to a party with some friends and they have asked a certain young man to take me. Now. Miss Fairfax, I can't stand him. He seems to like me well enough, but he la sort of fat, and I Just don't want to go with him. Can I tell my friends to get some one else? - If I go with him, how can I. get mit of dancing with him? Please answer soon, as my mother thinks I ought to go with him. , BOBBED LOCKS. Tou apparently need some one to tell you firmly a few things about good manners. If you accept the Invitation, the least you can do to be courteous to your hostess is to be polite to the man whom she asks to be your escort. How do you know he likes you? Perhaps he doesn't; but he at least has the good breed ing to conceal it If you didn't wish to go with him you should have de clined the invitation. Since you are going, you ought to make yourself as . pleasant as possible, and, of course, -you must dance with him. Tour trouble seems to be a lack of imagination under your bobbed locks, my dear.

My Marriage Problems AdeU Garrion New Pbaae of "REVELATIONS OF A WIEE" (Comtek! Ilt) Tha Reason Lillian and Allen XJ)rake Bf gtd Pardon." At my hysterical little appeal to my father, both Allen Drake and Lillian Underwood moved toward me swiftly. Lillian bent over me reassuringly and put her hand caressingly upou my fate, Allen Drake did not touch me, but when under Lillian's caress, and the mute tenderness of my father arms. I regained my composure and chanced to glance at him, I found him regarding me with compastion rte, tensely tender gaze, so unlike his usual expression of cynical, half patronising amusement, that for the second I forgot the importance of the revelation I had just heard in the surprise his look gave me. "Daughter! Daughter!" my father was murmuring in shocked surprise. "If I had dreamed you would feel this way about it, I would have told you at once that H "Please!" Lillian interrupted ruth lessly, while I saw a flash as of re lief cross her composed face. "Write what you are going to say. I have a fancy that Allen and I will be mighty glad to read it too. Time enough for talking a few minutes later." There was a meaning in her tone hidden from me, but which I saw both Allen Drake and my father un derstood. In the eyes of the brilliant government agent there was the same oddly-relieved expression which Lillian's had mirrored. But my father's eyes held, or so I fancied, a reproachful surprise as he gazed steadily at Lillian. "So you thought" he began, then he checked himself abruptly, drew a small pad of paper and a pencil from his pocket, wrote rapidly upoa it, tore off the sheet and passed it to me when he had finished. I read it with a sudden bound of my spirits and passed it otf to Lillian and Allen Drake. But its words were indelibly fixed in my memory. Don't Rub It In." "No harm has been done. .Katie has the memorandum, no doubt, but it is worthless. I placed it in the book purposely, because I was very sure that attempts would be maae to s-et it. Mv real secret is safeguarded almost beyond human power to reach it. But it suits me that the people searching for it should imagine for a while that they have succeeded. For that reason I wish Katie to be aided to deliver them the memorandum she has stolen. But she must be thor oughly frightened first, so that she will know no other will but ours. Per sonally, I do not believe she acted from any other motive than intense fear of the person who had played upon her superstitions." , I Lillian looked ud trom the reading and walked toward the fireplace with the paper. "May ir she asked. Mv father bowed his acknowledg ment, and she out the paper in the blaze and watched carefully until it was certain that no telltale scrap re mained. Then she walked back to my father and held out her hand. "Will you forgive me for cluttering up the earth?" she asked contritely. I might have known. Allen Drake was beside her, look ing at my father with very much the expression of a shamefaced school boy caught in a discreditable act . "If you'd find any satisfaction in booting . me around the premises, Chief," he said, "go to Tt. I'd lie out of it and swear on a stack o! Bibles I never thought anything, but there's no use trying to fool you." My father smiled. "I can't blame either of you for your thought," he said, a bit sadly. "I am getting old, you know." "Yes, the past few minutes prove that indisputably, Lillian drawled.

And as he talked, I realized what his lirt little by-play of words with Lillian and Allen Drake had meant, and I realized it with a passionate resentment against them for wound ing him as they had, even though in advertently. For they had betrayed their belief that he, a veteran of the tecet diplo matic service, would on account of declining powers, have placed hit mo mentous secret in an unguarded room. , I thrilled with pride at his vindi cations and then there came from out fide the room the swift, sharp jang ling of bells.
