For her the Muse or verso awo'te and he began
to match word to word to make a Valentine. For her
he washed Ma thin neck every day and stayed awake
In church. And for her sake he faced a spoonful of
black medicine looked It in the eye and drank It
down, and . smiled, because she said that he waa
brave. s
A Man I know, who owns a small, dear son with
golden hair that titands on end;, gray eyes, and a
mouth like a sleek strawberry, mused and spoke. And
what he said was this: 'I want my small son to know
girls. He will get plenty of boys, and fights, and les
sons in valor, and rough good-heartcdness, r.nd blows
in the face without my leading him by that way;
plenty to make a man or him if the man spirit i
there.
"But this I will take the trouble to do to see
that he knows girls little, big. or woman grown.
But the feminine thing who will paint the silver lining
on his brusque Iron cloud, who will make him to
know what softness, tenderness, delicacy, loveliness is.
And on that Knowledge he will draw in whatever h
works at all life long. From that his faith In all fine
and lovely things will spring.
"Where is the man who was really a good great
man who had not fair Ideals. What is a man or a boy
without that hand behind him the good hand o'
woman: the hand of down and Bteell For the sake of
all the lovely women and small rlrls I have known,
and the sweetness that they offered me for mine to
hold In my life, do I do any brave thing, any good
thing, any tender, any big thing that humble I have
done.,
"And here's a heart of pity for the small chap
who has never known the great Love the worship of
ten years old for feminine nineteen. And here's may
any maid be proud to own the adoration of a child!
"Once I washed my neck faithfully for many
weeks for a tall, -slim girl who read me boy hero tales.
Against her lovely crinkly plaited frock I leaned with
her kind arm around me,' and together we builded
tales of adventure mighty and Impossible! For she
wan child and woman, too,- and glad to run from her
done-ui hair and high heels and beaux to a tale and a
toasted apple w ith a small worshiper.
"She believed 1 waa brave and without fear she
said bo and far away from her, for that, I took my
medicine both then and now! She said I could do
anything, and bo I wrote her verses, and still I dare
to write them see! Bhe said that I was truthful,
and so for her I washed my neck beyond the boundary
line of Jaw and ear even when no one saw! And still
I do a little more than what I must for her.
"My son shall not mlus that!"

The Charm of the Toilet Table
Gradually, with the revival of eld
world modrs and tastes, the toilet table
the vanity of our groat-grand mother
and generations of their ancestresnea-la
returning to favor with all Its Incom
parable charm and pli'tiireanucness,
thouph modeled on unto-ite nP that
rnabln It to strike a hnnnouloiia note
with the reat qf the bedroom or boudoir
suite.
A frirnd of mine. Just returned from
Parin, where ehe haa been engaged ipon
Important ar work for the last eleven
months, tella me that the tolht taole In
the Frenchwoman's home la pow a
thing of extraordinary elegance at well
as great Importance.
"And Its charm that can be under
stood by one who lias reveled In the
comfort and the artistry and compared
It with the atern and clumsy 'dreaslng
tabic' that has sought to taxe Ita place,"
the assured me. "I remember how upon
arrival, tired and dull and depressed, at
the house of a friend one evening. I waa
placed In a cuahlnned chair before her
toilet table, and left to convert myself
from a wind-blown, work-soiled object
Into a trim, refreshed and perfumed ele
gante, "The charm of the dainty toilet table,"
aha oontlnued. "seemed to act upon ma
like a tonic. Only a woman could ever
understand the sheer delight of sitting
before thnt pretty creation of satin-wood,
with Ita quaintly shaped morror, aup
ported upon either aide by the tiniest
cherubs In the world, with lis fittings of
silver gilt, ita trinket boxes, and Ita lit
tle shining vasea of violets and rosea."
she drew a rough sketch as aha talked
of this toilet table with which aha had
become to enamored, and It waa easy
for me to aee that the recently revived
vanity of other days possesaet a charm
and fascination that la totally lacking in
tho substantial pieces of furniture, with
commodious drawers and aapect of sober
usefulness, with which we have been
sattafled of late years.
However busy a woman's life may be,
however broad end virile her Interests,
there ia always a secret fondneat In nor
heart for the vanltiea of femininity the
"poety of dress" that haa charmed the
world from time Immemorial. And Just
as the small girl finds delights In "dress
ing up," her mother keeps young and
pleasing by the "mental tonlo of hor
toilet." as It has been aptly termed.
The old world toilet table la a dis
tinctive thing, not a commonplace proaato
piece of furniture matching the bed
room suite and designed on practically
the aame lines at every other toilet tabid
of Its, kind In existence. It Is a creation
of daintier make and material than the
chairs, wardrobe and bed expressing
Ita owner's Individuality in the language
Of comfort, poetry and quaint charm.
In art, the toilet table has ever been
a thing of distinction and Importance.
Hogarth, In one of his pictures of the
"Marriage a la Mode" series, haa made
Immortal a beautiful creation, with gold
framed mirror, gold cords and tassels,
and luxurious crimson ' velvet. And
Boucher, in the "Marchande de Modes,"
haa Introduced a toilet tabid ot .'equal
bharm but entirely different etule, Shew
ing the flimsy muslin and magnificent
cosmetic Jars that delighted the feminine
aex of the late eighteenth rentrury.
In loetry too, the toilet table baa us
significance. The veiled creation, pre
dominant tn a certain gay era, has been
immortalised In verse:
And now unveiled, the toilet stsnd dls.
played
Each ailvr vase In mystic order tut'
At all the various stylea of the good
old days are being revived In the toilet
tables, to soon to charm us Into Im
patience with the modern uninspired
variety. It may be expected that tha
"veiled" toilet table will again put In
Its appearance. In fact, my friend from
Paris tella me that there Is already In
vogue a roll top toilet table, which may
be locked when not tn use, and opened
when desired, to show a datsllng col
lection of toilet accessories and orna
ments .

Advice to Lovelorn
By Beatrice Fairfax
A (inn A Idea.
Dear Miss Fairfax: A new club (the
first of Its klndl has been formed In our
city for literary, debating and public
speaking, In which both boys and girl
may participate. Members IS years or
over may Join. In a measure. It Is a
social as well as an educational society.
A number of gtrla of 1. In the enl,r
year at the high school, desire to know
whether you consider It propr for them
to Join this clue, which will Imhl Us
meetlnga one night a week. They ee.
nothing wrong In becoming member, but
wth to feel that they are doing fe rWht
thing. rUKI'LKXED.
It will be very pleasant as well as
sensible for tha boys and glrle of your
city to meet In this way. Certainly such
a dub will bring boys and girls together
In a sane and sensible way, and will en
able them to meet each other for the ex
change of real Irieaa rather than Just
with the Idea ef silly flirtation.
Dlffereare ia Aatea.
Pear Mlsa Fairfax: Should the fact
that a young man la a year younger than
a girl prevent a marriage? Ixita of r'-
pie ssy you never can be happy It Mia
man is younger than ttie girl. it. a.
It Is absurd to suppose that a year's
difference in age one wsy or the other
is going to wreck the happiness of a
marriage. Generally, It la advisable that
the husband be more mature than tho
wife, but In love affairs one can only
generalise, besides which, It Is possible
that a man a year younger than Ms wlfo
may be much more mature in his view
point and experience than she Is.
