It was at a reunion of some veterans
of the Spanish-American war Hint Al
ner Thorpe fell from grace. With
half a dozen old conirndcs he went
down to Springfield. tils wife had
demurred. Of late years she had been
disposed to direct and dictate. They
had plenty to get along with. Abner
had an easy time of It, Imposed on the
fact and, as Mary told her folks con
fidentially, was getting Into sloppy and
slovenly ways.
When Abner said resignedly: "All
right, Mary, maybe you know best."
He was so meek and pleasant about It
that, womanlike, she rescinded her
first insistency. So Abner got to
Springfield and into trouble. He fell
In with a slick adventurer who sug
gested a game of cards, "merely to
pass the time away." Abner never af
terwards forgot that game. Each
hand had scored fourteen points when
he observed tlmt it was getting rather
monotonous.
"Oh, well, one more hand, and put
some splco In it," rallied his compan
ion. "You're some player, friend 1
Let's call It ten dollars on the best
phowdown."
, "Look here," spurred up the other,
feigning sudden interest, "this looks
worth while. How much money have
you got to risk?"
''Better leave well enough alone,"
warned Abner, with a serene chuckle.
"You can't bluff me," came the
prompt reply. "Two hundred, be It!"
'Til take it," announced Abner with
a beaming face. "Beat that if you
can." And he laid down his cards.
"I'm I'm ' no gamester, though. I'll
take twenty Just to be sportlike and
buy a little souvenir for Mary, but I
won't rob you."
"Hold on," Interrupted the sharper.
How's that?"
"That" represented just one card
the best. Dolefully Abner saw his
entire surplus cash pass Into the hands
of his clever antagonist. Within an
hour he had advised his comrades,
borrowing sufficient money to pay his
fare home. The story of hts tempta
tion and fall preceded his return, and
when Mary coldly greeted him there
was a latent gleam of steruness In his
eye that was foreboding.
During the ensuing week Abner was
on the stool of repentnnco and hu
miliation. Mary maintained a re
servo that depressed him. He learn
ed that she had been seen In close
consultation with a nephew who was
a lawyer. Several other relatives vis
ited her, their somber faces and mys
terious noncommunlcatlng ways Indi
cating that they were allied In some
secret move". Abner was Immensely
relieved one morning when Mary came
Into the sitting room where hq was
cogitating over his sinfulness.
"Now, Abner Thorpe." she said, "you
and I are going to understand each
other. In your mnturer years you show
a propensity to squander the little we
hnve. Before you have ruined us we
must come to some arrangement of
protection for me. Reformation for
you. or this Is the parting of tho
, ways."
"Don't say. that. Mary," pleaded Ab
ner pathetically. "I confess I have
acted like a lunatic, but never ngaln.
Hit me hard. I deserve It. Punish
me to the limit."
"Very well. I have taken advice and
I. hnve determined to right things or
leave you. I have here," and Mary
placed on tho table a folded paper,
"my ultimatum fourteen points."
Abner's head gave a Jerk as If sus
taining an electric shock. Fourteen
points. It was Just that stage of the
card game that he had yielded to temp
tation. "President Wilson has set tho mode
for the correction of an Involved sit
uation with his fourteen points, and I
have modeled after him. Read, they
represent my unnlterablc decision."
Abner took up the paper bcwlldered
ly. He began to road aloud. " 'Point
- one, I will never gamble again.' Mary,
trust me as to that. Indeed. Point two,
nor drink.' I never did. Point three,
nor use tobacco. Not guilty. Point
four, 'nor swear.' Did you ever hear
me do that?"
"No Abner, but what might you not
do if you continue In a perverse way?"
"Point Ave, resumed Abner, 'homo
. from lodge at ton.' I'll guarantee that.
Point sir, 'shave three times a week.'
You're right, Mary, I have been get
ting careless nnd lazy. Point seven,
'keep my hair cut.' Certainly, it would
Improve my frowsy appearance. Point
eight, 'lot your wife visit her sister
Anna three times a year.' Who ob
jects? I'll go with yon. Point nine,
vote for suffrage.' Settled. Point
ten, 'paint the house.' I'll get at It
before noon. Point eleven, 'fix the
leaky roof.' That, too. Point twelve,
flv "the homo property so It won't be
squandered.' I'll make It over In your
name forthwith. Oh, Mary, you're
making It easy for me.
"There are two other points,", spoke
Mnry, and her fnco softened as she
then read sincerity and the love that
had stood the test of years In her hus
band's face,
"Oh, yos, I see 'sign.' Give me tho
pen. There you arc. Fourteenth point.
'Seal.' I will,' Mary, nnd never again
will you havo occasion to complain.
Seal with a kiss," and Abnor clasped
Mnry to Ms arms and gave those long
tag. tren.bUng lips a resounding smack-
LOCALITY NOT WELL NAMED
Desert Island, Off Maine Coast, Has
Many Attracttono for Naturalist
and Pleasure Seeker.
Mount Desert Island stnrted Its cn
recr with the handicap of n name thnt
suggests a place of glaring, sun-baked
Sands and rocks. Yet It has overcome
this disadvantage to the extent of now
being put down as a national park.
Moreover, It occupies a coveted posi
tion In Bar Harbor, one of the most
popular and fashionable summer re
sorts of the Atlantic coast.
It was Chnmplaln who 'named the
Island. He was sailing along the
Maine coast when he sighted a patch
of land with n backbone rldgo of ap
parently treeless mountains. "Isle of
Desert Mountnlns," Cluunplaln called
it, and sailed away. Later It was vis
ited by more curious explorers, nnd,
while the original name stuck, Mount
Desert Island came to be known as a
delightfully wooded Islnnd, with pic
turesque mountain trails, shadowy
lakes nnd a remarkable variety of birds
and plants.
As these reports spread, Mt. Desert
acquired n population of nature
enthusiasts, artists, poets nnd a stead
ily Increasing representation from the
world of fashtonnble society.
Bar Harbor, the best-known sum
mer colony of Mt. Desert, lies on the
enst coast of the Island overlooking
Frenchman's bay nnd the blue Atlan
tic. There are gorgeous villas nnd ex
pensively simple cottages In Bar Har
bor, n country club, golf courses,
beaches, and all the rest of the usual
summer resort equipment.
But most people find the mountnlns
nnd lnkes of tie Island more Inter
esting than the artificial atmosphere of
the built-up resort Birds from are
tic regions as well as countless vari
eties from warmer latitudes find their
way to the Island, nnd brighten wood
and shore with gay flashes of color.
Mt. Desert's long standing ns a bird
refuge, Its scenic beauty mid Its In
teresting geologic history which
shows that its mountains and Valleys
were cut out In an early glacial pe
riod all combined to mnke It desir
able as n national reservation. The
Idea.was long considered, and at last,
in 1017, pnrt of Mt. Desert was set
aside as a natlonnl playground nnd an
ofliclnl bird refuge.
FINDING HAPPINESS IN WORK
Matter Which Is Largely Dependent
on Attitude One Assumes Toward
Necessary Labor.
Work Is ,God's greatest blessing to
man. Until you hnve learned to look
upon your work, not as a curse, not as
drudgery, not as a treadmill which
you are compelled to turn laboriously
every day, you cannot be really happy,
you are missing the best that Is In life.
remarks Forbes Magazine.
No honest work need be drudgery,
whether It be sweeping streets, mak
Ing qollars or painting famous pic
tures.
Art is nothing but doing a thing In
tho best way it can be done.
Each one of us can be an artist at
his or her work. All we need do Is put
our whole heart, our whole enthusl
asm, our whole souls, our whole talent
Into doing It with the greatest care,
tho greatest skill nnd the greatest off!
clency we enn command.
Until we do this we can be neither
successful nor contented, for Provi
dence has ordained that, in order to bo
happy, we must do the best and the
most we are capable of.
Loafers, whether rich or poor, do
not know true happiness, do not know
the sense of satisfaction which comes
from work well done nnd done with a
will. .
Whether we find pleasure In our
work or whether we find It n bore de
pends entirely upon our mental attl-
tude toward It, not upon the task Itself.
Seven Wise Men of Greece.
By the expression, "The Seven Wise
Men of Greece," Is meant a number of
men nmong the Greeks of the sixth
centurj' before Christ, distinguished
for their practical sagacity and their
wise maxims or principles of life.
Their names nre variously given, but
those most generally admitted to tho
honor nre Solon, Chllo, Plttacus, Bias,
Perlander (In place of whom some
give Eplmenldes), Cleobulus and
Thales. They were the authors of tho
celebrated mottoes Inscribed In later
days In the Delphlnn temple. These
mottoes, with tho name of the nuthor
of each, were: "Know Thyself," by
Solon; "Consider the end," by Chllo;
"Know thy opportunity," by Pittncus;
"Most men are bad," by Bias; "N,oth
lng Is Impossible to industry," by Pe
rlander; "Avoid excess," by Cleobulus;
and "Suretyship Is the precursor of
ruin," by Thales.
Lamb and Mutton.
Tho dividing line between lnmb nnd
mutton is not based wholly upon age;
a well-bred and well-fed animal, 12 or
18 months old, may still belong to the
lamb class, while a yearling of rangy
stock, which hns been poorly fed,
yields meat of an Inferior grade of
mutton. '
The best grade of mutton consists
of fat, heavy meat. Light and flnbby
meat Is not very palatable. Lamb
rarely Is an economical ment to serve.
The relntlvo difference In food vnlue
between lnmb and mutton Is tho same
ns between veal nnd beef.
Tho meat should be of a deep red
color and firm to the touch; the fat,
creamy, white and solid. Mutton ab
sorbs odors easily, so It must be kopt
ln,n coo' placo under' proper conditions,
FLORY
By MILDRED WHITE.
i
"Silly twaddlel" remarked James
Comstock, disgustedly, and laid the
book aside.
"Whose 'twaddle'" asked n sweet
voice near him, "Is It?"
James glanced at the cover.
"By Flory," he quoted contemptu
ously. "Flory Is exactly tho sort of
person one would expect to touch up
on her subjects, like n butterfly among
the flowers, with no substance or real
ity to hold."
"Haven't you," asked tho girl at his
side, "Imbibed some of Flory's poetic
phraseology? Nbw, 1 know a man who
Is enraptured over tho little books,
considers them tho acme of art. Cer
tainly they sell well."
.lames Comstock turned to look Into
the piquant face upraised to his own.
Like various other guests nt Mrs. Van
Houton's house party, ho was exceed
ingly curious concerning this new ar
rival In their social midst.
The rest of tho "crowd had been
known to each other, either by name
or reputation for years, lthoda Kent
was one o Mrs. Van Houton's discov
eries. T use her son's expression, his
mother had "sprung n new one," nnd
she was delighted In her young
friend's reserve. .The most favored
had been able to learn nothing of
Ithodn's past, present or future from
iter own lips.
It was the unusual charm of her per
sonality which caused deep Interest
upon all sides, and much conjecture.
Her clothing, though In good taste, was
so Independently simple that many
wondered If Mrs. Van Houton hud
taken on a protege.
James Comstock, being acceptably
the most Interesting mnn In the set,
was nnturally her vis-a-vls. In fact,
during the days of proximity In the
fine old house his heart had known its
first serious affection.
James, the heretofore invulnerable,
was, as Billy Van Houton said, "de
cidedly hnrd hit."
Never before, he gloomily admitted
to himself, had face or voice of wom
an haunted the nightly hours which
should be devotee" to healthful slum
ber. So James was Justified In pos
sessing more than the usual share of
curiosity concerning the real life of the
winsome lthoda.
"Perhaps." he said In answer to her
defense of the book discussed, "this
Flory may say more, In a light man
ner, than I am clever enough to grnsp.
But, fancy, for Instance, being . mar
ried to such a dreamer. Poor husband
of Flory I With his wife alwuys soar
ing above the blue. She- Isn't so bad at
rhyme, though, I'll admit; seems to
have a number of llttlo verses scat
tered through here nnd there, with a
bar of music to start them off. Helps
to sell, I suppose. Makes the book
look easy to read."
Miss Kent nodded laughingly.
"But you would not want to be tho
suffering husband who must listen to
his wife singing those things around
the house," she snld.
"Heaven forbid 1" James piously
ejaculated. And the lovely girl at his
side arose in response to Mrs. Van
Houton's call.
"Come here, Rhoda," cried that mer
ry person. "Here nre half a dozen
bored people wishing to be entertained.
My hope lies In you."
James Comstock gazed after the
graceful figure regretfully. The glance
she threw back at him was strangely
disquieting. For days ho had been
Joyously secure In a consciousness of
the girl's preference. Unaccountably
discouragement came upon him.
Ithodn's eyes had gazed ut him re-
proachfully, her Hps had closed firmly,
ns though In displeasure. Then pros
ently he heard her voice In song, as
she accomnanled herself upon the
plnno.
It was a little Scotch tune tlmt the
girl played and the words sounded
vaguely familiar. . Comstock leaning
forward, listening attentively, found
that voice and tune thrilled him with
inexplicable tenderness. Where had
he heard the words?
Idly his gaze fell upon the opened
book of "Flory." Then he knew. It
was one of the despised Flory's verses
that his beloved was singing. And
after u round of involuntary bund
clapping he heard Mrs. Van Houton's
triumphant announcement:
"I had not Intended to tell you for
nwhlle; we have had such fun keep
ing our secret. But lthoda Kent Is
Flory,' ns you have guessed, with
those delightful books to her redlt."
Comstock sat staring dully nt the
volume In his hand long after silence
proclaimed that Ithoda's audience hnd
departed. Bitterly he recalled his re-
cent condemning conversation, with
its fervent "Heaven forbid!" that
wife such us sho should be his own
Well, he had done for himself this
time, ho bitterly reflected, and this
time wns all thnt counted In the world,
"If you please," asked Rhoda severe
ly, "may I have that book of 'allly
twaddle?' "
Wretchedly he looked up Into the
lovely face above his.
"And I was going to ask you to
be my wife."
"Heaven forbid I" murmured Rhoda,
"A wlfo floating nronnd In the blue,
Her voice broke In soft uncontrollable
laughter. Eagurly he caught nt her
hands.
"I will drop the nnme 'Flory,"1
Rhoda said later; "Mrs. James Coin
stock will give to the book tho propel
dignity which It deserves."
