The girls who refused you refused you

your mother refuse the man she wouldn't

She didn't like you-that's all and Judg

A bag of peanuts and a loving heart!
What a Joyous gift to lay at the feet
of the fair. A man who'd give his sweet
heart peanuts when he could go out Into
the first vacant lot and pick a nosegay
of pink clover blossoms to take , to her,
OUght to be refused, and refused with

Honestly, now, wouldn't you like an

"Why don't you get one?

Honest and truly, now, don't fidget
away from the answer. The reason you

did you cheer that man to the echo and
let his brother walk by without even

He hit the ball, didn't be. and hit it at
the psychological moment? Well, don't
you suppose a woman likes the sort of
man who gets some of the cheers once

It Isn't the automobile she's in love
with; it's the man who's able to earn
the money to buy the machine that the
girl admires. She isn't In love with his
money; she'a in love with his brains and
kit grit and his fight and his hard work.
It takes all these things to make a suc

Any Actress Can Paint
By Tad
your follows at the meeting the other
night
I could scarcely keep from rising and
saying. "Well, what of It?" Why
shouldn't women marry the successful
men?. Why shouldn't they love them for
the qualities which make success?
What do I call suceees? I call success
the getting of the thing you go. out to
get that's success.
For the writer success is to have his
work published and read. For the painter
success means good painting and plenty
of it-nd that's all it does mean. For
the business man It means good business
with reputation and respect and a little
independent money In the bank.
Any woman with any kind of a brain
and anything at all in the way of a heart
would marry the man she loves If he's
as poor as Job's turkey, and be thank
ful to get hlm-but who's going to
love a man who can't the thing he's
trying to do? v
How about thoose peanuts, Mr. Mary
iebone? Were even they the best la the
market and were there plenty of them?
Hurrah for the girl who said no. I'll
warrant she's been glad of It ever since.
Marriage a fraud? Not unless the man
and woman who marry are frauds, both
of them, and even then It sometimes
turns out the very thing they needed to
make real people out of them.
That little old bag ef peanuts you talk
so much about may have been all right,
good Mr. Maryiebone, but, whisper. What
about the heart that went with It? Was
that all right, too?" r 1
T doubt lt-and so did 1 the girl, or
she'd have said "Tes" the first time you
even looked as If you meant to ask her.

FUEL SAVING AND EFFICIENCY
All large consumers of coal will be In
terested la the following editorial opinion
expressed by the Engineering Maga&ne.
On the relative efficiency of natural
draft secured by stacks and that obtained
by mechanical appliances, usually re
ferred to as forced draft, the writer says:
"The success of the economizer with
natural draft secured by stacks Is too
fully demonstrated to need assertion
Considering not only the number of
plants, but total horsepower thus
equipped, the figures Are largely, on the
side of the natural draft installation, for
the list is headed by the large electric
railway systems, such as the New York
Interurban, London Underground, Paris
Suburban, the great sugar refineries of
New York, Brooklyn,. Philadelphia, New
Orleans and San Francisco, many of the
most Important .cotton mills throughout
New England and others. The merit and
virtue of the economizer, of course, is its
recovery of heat from the furnaces gases;
and this direct recovery and. other causes
necessarily lower the stack temperature;
but against this must be set the consid
eration that for a given horsepower de
veloped the economizer will save an im
portant percentage of the fuel burned
nd require -correspondingly less draft.
"Other points upon which emphasis
should be laid are those of proper design
of the flues and the arrangement of the
economizer itself. In many cases an al
teration in flue arrangement may give
Improved draft concurrently with the Iri
stallatlon of economized sections. The
increased use of mechanical draft with
economizers Is Indeed most probable, but
the Increase will result not only from the
comparison . of present conditions, . 5ut
from the continuous demand for a con
stantly progressing - Increase in the
amount of fuel 'to be burned per square
foot of heating surface."
Key to the Situation Bee Advertising.
By LILLIAN LORRAINE.
Once upon a time I met a woman who
never really smiled.
When anything pleasant happened she
twitched the corners of her mouth up,
but her eyes were always the same open
round orbs and no lines of laughter ever
crept into their corners.
"Why don't you ever laugh?" I asked
her.
"Because I don't want to make wrinkles
in my face," she said.
To give up real beauty laughter seems
a terrible price to pay for one's beauty,
but certainly the girl who laughs too muoh
and too hard will find little lines forming
on either side of her mouth and around
her eyes. Eventually they develop into
crow's feet, which are so ugly, and she
will have a very hard time getting rid
of them.
A great many people make faces when
they laugh, especially girls, finding a
particular Joy in screwing, up their eye
until the eye itself is almost closed and
innumerable little lines are forming
around it. This isn't a very becoming
way to laugh, and if you practice it and
think about It ocoasionaly you can get
to laughing without closing your eyes or
wrinkling the skin around them.
When those falst llnea have formed,
however, ant you see them on very
young girls, the only way to get rid of
them la to rub them away, using your
forefingers and a little very good cream.
Massage the skin very gently, going
round , and round in a email circle, then
wash f off the cream with , warm water
and soap and dry the face and rub a
little good toilet water or alcohol over
the lines as an astringent After you
are all through you can dust the skin oft
with a little rice powder. This Is the most
harmless kind.
We all have more trouble with our
complexions in summer than winter,
though it ought to be Just the other way,
because summer is such a good time to
clear up the skin, as perspiration helps
one in cleaning out the pores. But what
dreadful combinations we do eat. Shore
dinners, ice cream and. coffee and pos
sibly iced tea, too. I've known lots of
peopie who drank iced tea Is great quan
tities, following that with black coffee,
and then wondered what was the matter
with their nerves and why their com
plexions were poor.
While fruit is supposed to be so good
for one in the summer; It I often eaten
in too large quantities for health, and
often berries and other fruits are served
just a trifle decayed, which is likely to
upset the best little stomach In the
world.
Then we are all wearing small bats this
year, and I'm afraid many eyelids will be
red and sore from sunburn, and many
little nose show a sudden crop of freckles
Old-time belles ued to protect their
faaea in summer time by making masks
of cotton or chamois skin and covering
the inside with a thick coating of face
cream. The mask was made big enoug'.i
to cover the entire face, with slits for
the eyes, mouth and nostrils. It was tied
around the head with ribbons attached
to the aides of the mask, and the perspn

who wore it stayed in her room In qulo.
and almost complete darkness for several
hours at least
Another preparation used was powdered
magnesia. This was mixed with a little
water and put over the face and was said
to be very good for sunburn.
I don't think any of us have the white
clear complexions of our grandmothers,
because none of us would be willing ti
endure all the trouble they took to make
themselves beautiful. Then the Idea of
beauty has changed, 'too. It used to be
considered fashionable for a young girl to
faint on all occasions and to look pale,
but nowadays we prefer a healthier type
of girl, and when she tans to a fine ruddy
brown every one admires her. Even
freckles are forgiven, though I don't think
girls ever think them attractive. But I
have heard men say a few little freckles
were fascinating. Fortunately tastes dif
fer.
The expression of the face makes its
beauty and you can make your expres
sion anything you want It.
livery one can look stupid or bored,
but, no one has to look so, and certainly
' f
..
both expressions ruin every vestige of
good looks. '
Don't let the corners of your mouth
droop. It's never becoming. Turn the
corners up.even.if.it costs you an effort.
As soon as you see lines forming in
your face study them carefully, find out
If they are lines that could be avoided,
and If so counteract the wrong muscu
lar habit by the right one, for wrinkles
are simply the result of constant mus
cular contrsctlon and it rests entirely
with you wlieather that contraction shall
become a habit or not.

The Fall of Louisburg
Sir William Pepperill and His Followers Take This Place
One Hundred and Fifty-Seven Years Ago.
By REV. THOSLiS B, GREGORY. , - : '
Jane IT, 1T45.
The capture of Loplburg by Sir WU
tlam Pepperill and his New England
farmers and fishermen 157 years ago to
day will always be reckoned among the
most wonderful of
military achieve
merits. The men who
did the business
coudd hardly make
themselves believe
that they had ac
tually accomplished
the task, and to this
day the whole thing
seems far more like
fiction than fact
Louisburg, on the
southesst side of
Cape Breton Island,
holding as It did a
most commanding position with refer
ence to France, Canada and the West
Indies, had been fortified by the French
until they felt quite Justified in calling
It the "Gibraltar of America." More
than $10,000,000 had been spent upon its
defenses, and It Is safe to say that with
the exception of Gibraltar and Quebec
there was not a stronger ' place In the
world. The French felt perfeotly secure
In their "stronghold, and probably there
was not a military man In the world who
would not have said that the French
were fully justified In their feeling of
safety.
Now, the New England fishermen and
lumbermen thought they saw In Louis
burg a menace to their business, and they
began talking of the capture of the Im
pregnable fortress. The proposition was
msde to Governor Shirley of Massachu
setts. The governor took the matter to
the legislature and It was vntad down.
Nothing daunted, Shirley returned to the
attack and with the co-operation Of the
leading merchants appealed to the legis
lature again and won by a slnglo vote.
And now for business. Massachusetts
supplied 3,000, New Hampshire, Connecti
cut and Rhode Island 600. The naval c-nd
of It consisted of one 24-gun frigate and
twelve smaller vessels, mostly sloops of
from eight to twenty guns. The srped'-
tlon waa placed under command of Sir
William Pepperill, a rich me.vhar.t of
Klttery. ... .. ,j
Sir William was made "lieutenant
general" and Roger Walcott of Connec
ticut, raised to. the rank of major-general,
was appointed second In command.
Hearing nothing from the appeal to
England for assistance, the , New Ens
landers started for their prise, and. ef?
fectlng a landing on May 1. Immediately
laid siege to America's "Qibralter" and
Its ISO big guns and 2.000 French regu
lars, Swiss Mereenarus and Canadian
mlllUa. . ,
On May 2, 400 of Pepperlll's men. march
ing along the shore of the harbor, came
upon a large magazine of naval stores;
which they set on fire. Near the burn
ing stores was a powerful fortification
known as the "Grand Battery," mounting
thirty heavy guns and completely, com
mending the town. The thick clouds of
smoke rolling up from the burning tar,
pitch and turpentine and enveloping the
battery scared the garrison out of their
wits and . the work was abandoned til
panic haste. The New Engenders marched
in, and from that moment Louisburg was
doomed. .
Pepperill pounded away, at them front
the Grand battery, and by and by the
British fleet arrived, which closely In
vested the harbor. By the r.ildrtle of
June there was scarcely a house In the
town that had not been riddled, and cu
the 17th the famous fortress surrendered
One of the strongest places on the fare'
of the earth had capitulated to a small
force of New England militia!
In celebration of the glorious victory a'
state dinner was spread, and old Parson
Moody, noted for his long prayers, wa
asked to "say grace," but he could only
mutter: . "O Ixrd, we have so' much to
thank Thee for the time Is too snort We
must leave It to eternity. ' Amen." v.
For this crowning schlevment the col
onlsts reoeived no credit The glory was
all given to the British. And, to cap the
climax of the wrong, the British dlplot.
mats four years later gave Louisburg
back to France, thus necessitating . Hi
recapture In 1759 by Amherst and Wolfe.'
The Manicure Lady
"My brother has nearly finished his
new play," said the Manicure Lady. "He
was reading some of It to us up to the
house last night." ' '
'This is a bad time to be writing new
plays," said the head barber. "From
what a lot of the boys tell me-boys that
are In the theatrical business and ought
to know wht they are talking about -the
theatrical game Is kind of In the
doldrums or whatever they call it when
the ship Is becalmed. It seems that them
moving pictures has put the game on
the fritz. I don't blame people for pay
ing a quarter to sea a lot of good vaude
ville and pictures Instead of digging up
12 to see a bum musical comedy. Musical
comedies used to be all right when Gil
bert and Sullivan was writing them, but
there's a terrible lot of Junk unloaded on
the public now. What kind of a play is
your boy wonder brother going to tor
ture us with?"
'There ain't any torture connected
with It, George," said the Manicure
Lady. "This here new play of Wilfred's
is the same one I was telling you some
thing about a few weeks ago. He calls
it a political satire, and the name of It,
as I told you then, Is 'Theodore the
Third.' lie sure has got some dandy
lines In It, George, I brought down a
couple of pages of it to show you. Lis
ten to this:
Theodore
Now blessings on the statee, the sov
ereign states.
That yield their daring delegates to me.
Poor Falltaft! Does he think he has a
chance?
The people want him not another term
They want a stern and virile president
With muscles made of oak and with a
heart
That beats for rich and poor alike. They
want
A man who has the lungs and limbs to
climb ...
The greatest heights, the most stupen
dous hills.
They want a man with large and able
teeth
Teeth than can masticate the toughest
grub
That ever soldier ate. They want a man
Brave as great Stanley, who, long years
ago,
Through tangled Afric Jungles chopped
his way, -Nor
stopped until he found Dave Living
stone. They want a man whose eye Is keen
enough
To pierce the deepest shadows of deceit
And bring the money minions .to the bar.
They want a man of men, a wondrous
. man
A man that towers o'er the common herd
As towers a Himalayan mountain peak-,.
Above an Arizona butte. They want
No Falltaft. They want me! Me.
Theodore!'"
"How much more of ' it Is , there?"
asked the patient head barber.
"There's a lot more of it," said the
manicure lady. "But I think that read
ing It to a barber Is like casting pearls
before swlnes." ;'
"You mean 'swine,' " corrected the head
barber. ': '
I mean just what I said."- replied tUe
Manicure Lady. "Every time I look at,
you I feel like putting an 'z' on the
meanest word I can call you to make jr
go double. There's a gent coming down,
the stairs now to get shaved. Go ahead

THE DIFFICULTY OF ENGLISH-
When young Rudolf, von Hammerpestle"
the beloved scion of the famous house of
Von. Hamroerpestle of Posen, first came
to America he found much difficulty In
mastering . the rudiments of the English
tongue. His most trying experience was '
when he went to Boston and was told
that It was required of him that ' h
should Inscribe his name on the register
of whatever hotel he visited. After be
Ing shown to his room he looked hopev
lessly about in search, of the article, but
in vain. There waa nothing of the kind
in sight- so. desirous of falling in with
all the customs of the country he rang
up the office and Informed the room clerk
of the situation.
"I haff looked de room over all already
yet," said he, "und I find no register here.
Vot shall I do?"
"This house Is heated by steam," replied
the room clerk. "Use the radiator."
"Undt vot shall I use der ink, or shftU
I scrateh my name on mit der'pockget

"What are you talking about?" de
manded the room clerk. , "Scratch your
name on what?"; ... j ... 1
"Der radiator," returned Rudolf. ' "ls
it dot I must write, my name on def
radiator instead of der register, or may
be better yet I write It on der vail vot?"
