"You don't know how often I look at that photograph of your each dayl It is awfully good, and I was delighted to have it. It is as like you as a photogrgaph tan be but how unlike you at the same timel What is a photograph to the real person?" I read that in a letter the other day. Let tne hasten to say that the photograph was not one of myself. It was that of a decidedly pretty young woman. She had shown me that likeness before she sent it off, and had asked me what I thought of it, and when I declared it excellent, had told me that, for her art, she really did not rare for it. Did you ever know a girl who was satisfied with her photograph? But there was the recipient of it con firming my opinion. She thought I ought to see what he saidi but she had doubled the paper up very care fully so that I could see no more. No doubt the writer of that letter went on to tell her of the most im portant affairs that were to be kept a profound secret. Hc'i written a lot of nonsense after that," she informed me, with a laugh and eyes that sparkled o that I quite clearly understood that that nonsense was really very dear to her nonsense she will keep very care fully and read ever so many times to herself each day, though she knows it all by heart every word of it. He was quite right when he said that the photograph was not like the real person. It did not do justice, to her nrettiness. She was pretty when it was taken, but as I. looked at her I realized that that young gentle man, when he comes back, will have a surprise. .She has grown prettier quite perceptibly more lirauutul since he hat been away. The old Marouin Danville heard i-ome ladies at the court of the Em press Eugene one day discussing the disappearance of one of the most beautiful ladies who bad shone at the court. What had become of her? The most accepted conclusion was that she. had disappeared in conse quence of fading attractions. "You are quite wrong, ladies," de clared the marquis. "She disappeared in consequence of sad family misfor tunes which have actually obliged her to work in order to maintain her aged father. She is mre beautiful than ever infinitely more so. You ladiea who are ever trying fresh recipes for the preservation and the increasing of your beauty, might take a wrinkle from her. It is simple and costs ah I yes, , it does cost something" The ladies pricked up their eara. The marquis was an authority on female beauty. He was implored, if he knew the secret, to tell it to them. The cost would not matter. "I am not quite sure of that," he remarked with a smile. "The price she has paid for her beauty ha been seven hours' hard work day for some months and sorrows, that have made her find her oul. It peep out in her face. She always was beauti ful. You should see her now that her face is illuminated by the heroic soul ahe ha discovered.' Advice to Lovelorn s By Beatrice Fairfax. TefiHer. rr Mlaa Fairfai.

Will you plaaaa advlaa ma what to rioT A K lie honest with your girl friend and tell her that the young man you met through her has asked to call. Since she is not engaged to him she can hardly expect that he will have no girl friends other than herself, and if you are lojal enough to tell her of his request she will have no cause to critic ic you or feel hurt. And if she is a fine girl, she will appreciate the situation and be gracious about it. I would not want one of my girls to fail in loyalty to another or let a nun suppose that she values her girl friends lightly. You will find that honesty is the only way to deal with the situation. The Firrt Voce Party The first "Peace nam" in the United States was formed to oppose the war of IKIJ by a combination of federalists and democratic-republicans, mostly in New England. you happen to look like this, then you are all right But if plain, your dog is likely to be more beautiful than you HERE i dangerous fashion! I who love dogs, who have had merry day of comradeship with them, who have found, since I ran remember, their friendship a thing to take joy in, who have never feared one or known in them anything but gentleness and loyalty, who believe in raring rigjitly for the ones I own and making my neighbor rare for his (you who fear dog-hits and never dream that an animal drinks as plants and humans do, jemeniber that a man goes mad for a drink) understand that women who are really fond of nogs are so because they have a good heart for anything that live from a flawer and a baby to even a faulty man! It is rather a bromide to say over and over what is so much trumpeted abroad "she'd much better have a child where that little dog sitsl" Anyway, I shouldn't say it if I thought that for how can you dare to know just why she hasn't a little child there and when you see a woman reach for any live thing with gentle fingers and kind eyes you can know it takes a long tape to measure the bigness of her heart. Let me tell you. A beautiful woman I know with a warm gold colored head of hair, big hazel eves, generous lits, and a big heart, lives in a big houe with her husband and two little woolly dogs. Some of her friends slirtig shoulders when she gives glimpses of the great care and affection she gives these two little pups who look to me as if they would break since I like a big dog best but they are the ones who do not know her well. Ilecause she is so kind and lavish of care on these two small things that happen to be one of her house is just the reason she would be lavish of affection with any creature that lived in it. She rescues fallen baby birds She labors with drivers who work lame horses. She feeds her neighbors' cats when they fail to remem ber that the animals they own must eat to live, llr eyes are wide for any misery in all the animal world and she is brave enough to speak and act. Now, look at the sund heatt of her, the true mother heart. She orks without dream o( pay, and Rivet without a thought both money and precious time for she kerps a big house, a petted home to a child nursety that would be a forlorn a f f air but for her and a group of women like her. She turns and looks at every rluld that passes her on the street even if he's lost under a layer of grime. She has not any of her own. She adopted a little blue-eyed mite; and gave it back from the pity of her big heart when its mother begged it un der changed fortune. 'And the big tear swam in her eye when he remember it. If yon see a picture of a woman with a white pey dog beside her would you dare to say that old trie phase that is not new: ''Better a little child anybody' little child in the picture?" Give me the woma.n who love animals, who pick up a flower thrown away on a dirty street with its tender bloom in the dirt, who grives over all pain and blotting out of life, who likes the little grubby, homely child just ni warmly as the fussed-up baby in frill and rosebuds. She is a good lover. And these thing go together. Now to laugh. It' a dangerous fashion just the samel It is all quite all right, and the effect of the portrait is charming, if you are a beautiful girl, one of the lucky born, to have your picture taken with aKvaMjMa J ' iCuabg.S 'AsKmBu.

D., The trouble is that many diet-re- former take a short-sighted, or, rather, one-sided, view of the ques tion, "What is a good food?" A good food, a good ration, must be a good fuel, because about three pounds have to be burnt in the body every day in order to give "steam ' for the daily work. Hut that is only one side ot its utility, although a niot important one. Most reform and money-saving diets look at the problem only from a coal, or gasoline, point of view, while a gnod food should be at least three other things beside good "gas" a good repauer, a good lubri cant and a rust preventer or disease protector.

This is the reason why we are so fond of it and it is so expensive; that is to say, we are willing to pay such a high price for it. Regrettable as it is from the point of view of economy, it must be frankly confessed that all attempts to substitute some other repair and disease-fighting foodstuffs for meat in our diet have proved practically a failure. The technical name for meat is protein, and the reason why it is so valuable and indispensable for growth anu repair purposes is that our bodies themselves are made of "meat," or protein. We may call ourselves "dough-faces" or "pud dtngheads" or "milksops," but no amount of iugrnuily can build any part of our bodies out of starch, And if it could we should be in danger of melting away when it rained. Only meat or protein, which includes, fish, game, eg and milk, can be used for our hmldtng stuff, nr to nuke repairs Many attempts have breu made to substitute what are known as vegeta ble protruia, such as the gluten nr ituky part of wheat bread, beau, pea and nuts, r meal, but none o them have hrrn (.Mind (rally ti fadorv.
