Th Unexpected Passenger Madge
Was Forced to Accept.
How ever did you manage it?vl
gasped admiringly, turning to Lil
lian from my rapt contemplation of
thtf RO'.vn up.on the bed,
"My early training as a uurRlar,"
Lillian answered carelessly. ."Vou

its hanger in tny closet, where you
had hung it."
, "But you have thought of every
thing." t said, as 1 hastily laved my
face and hands at the old-fashioned i
stationary washstand in my father's j
room. "And voir had so little time J
this morning." i
"You can do wonders if you travel i
.in a taxi aud keep it wafting at the
door while you pack, Lillian said,
smiling. "I kuow of no preater in
centive to haste than the conscious
ness of a taxi meter clicking merrily
away. You see, I did all my order

back in plenty of time to get my
hundlcs and. whirl off to the train

en that."
1 had slipped into the fresh blouse
she had thoughtfully brought me,
but my fingers were clumsy with
iLfrvousiiess. As she brought the
iwactory fastenings into order she
smiled down reassuringly Wine.
. Unspoken Warnings.
"Steady, girl!" she said softly.
"Everything- going to be all right,
Katie, Jim, the house, your hus-
uaiui, and me dinner lonignu in
cidentally, let me tell you not one
- of them can hold a candle to you
tonight if you look the way you
do now. You are the prettiest
thing, Madge! You have all the
cards in your hands. Now run along
and meet the Dicky-bird. I'll take
these things back tA Mrs. Durkcc.

he first views the debris below.
There'll he an ascension worth
w-atrhtncV. lmt lurkilv he takes it all
out in altitude flying, and wlierf he
conies to earth again tie's peaceful
as a summer morning."
She kjssed me hurriedly, and
hastened away, while J, iir my turn
hastening downstairs and to my
waiting car in the driveway, yaid
tribute for the 1,000th time toher
tact and thoughtfulness. She not
only had saved me from humilia
tion at the . evening; dinner, but I
knew that she had warned me as
openly as she daiv to pay no at
tention to whatever vagaries of
temper Dicky might exhibit.
I glanced at my watch as 1
stepped info my car; ' Thanks to Lil
lian's help, I had ample time to
make trie train, and l looKea arouna
for some trace of Jim, thinking that
I might have time to explain the
selling of the house to him, and
thus ward off the effect of Katie's
certain hysterical appeal to him.
Mrs. Durkee's Request;
But, even as I saw Jim's familiar
limping figure, appear ar the rear of
the house, and prepared to get out
of the car, I saw Katie's figure fly
down the rear steps and into Jim's
arms. Her hair wa dishevelled,
her whole appearance spelled hys
teria. I heard her broken sobbing
call of "Oh. Jeem! Jeem!" and with
a little shiver of apprehension I got
hack into my seat again and started
the car. There was no lise trying
to talk with Jim now. That nmst
Wait until much later..
My clutch did not work smoothly,
and I threw the gears into 'neutral
again. As I did so, I heard little
Mrs. Durkee call a wild halloo, and
I leaned out of( the side of , the car
to eee what she wanted.
"Where are you going?" she
called, as she ran across the lawn
; toward the car,
"Down to meet Dicky,'.' I an
swered, reassuringly. "Every piece
is done, Lillian is bringing them
over."
' "Ours are almost done, too," she
taid. "Lillian and I will hang them
while you are gone. But there arc
some things I've got to have at the
stores. Euith has the list, and she'll
go with you. You can order the
-.flowers, also, and bring them back
with you if you will masses of
pink roses. You don't mind Edith's
going, do you?" . t
VYa I mistaken, or . was there
thc hint of malicious ''mischief in
the little woman's eyes? Dear as
she is. she can be distinctly catty
on occasion. I wonder if she guessed
'how very much 1 did mind Edith
Fairfax's presence on this trip to
meet Dicky, especially as I had no
idea what his mood would be when
he greeted me. But my response.
I flatter' myself, was as hearty as
any one could make.
"Mind!" I said, as if amazed be
yond measure. "Are you getting
foolish in your old age? But tell
Edith to hurry. I've only a few
minutes to make Dicky's train."
"Here she comes now." Mrs. Dur
kce responded, and as I turned my
eyes to the graceful, slender figure
coming toward me across the lawn
I saw that I was not the only one
who had donned a fresh blouse in
.Dicky's honor. , '

Parents' Problems
Should children wear shoes with
heels? , -
When they reach the right age
and stage of development. Go to
a good shoeshop. or order from a
good establishment. Ask the sales
man, or write to the firm; they will
tell you when it is time to change
from "spring heels to regular-low,
of course-heels. If the children have
trouble with their ankles, mention
.this fact.; If the trouble is marked,
consun a pnysician.
Where It Started
Almanacs.
Almanacs are of vary ancient
origin. The Egyptians and Greeks
probably used them, though none
of their specimens have been pre
served. The oldest almanac now ex
tant js in manuscript of the 13th
century. It is preserved " in the
British museum. The oldest known
printed almanac was compiled by the
tronomer Purbach. in 1450.

More Truth
By JAMES J.
" Pee-Chec-Lce
Sweet rcc-Chee-Lee was a sight to see.
With her eyes like velvet moonsr
A timid mouse in a pea-green bloifsc
And cute little pantaloons.
With her piquant face afld her dainty grace,
And her pretty, mincing gait, '
She was like the maids in the pastel shades
That you sec on a willow plate.
But the English belles in the great hotels
Had gleaming V-shaped throats!
And a shining sheen of hose between
Their shoe's and petticoats.
And that is why, as she passed them by,
That her heart went pit-a-pat.
And she thought. "Dear me! If Pee-Chee-Lee
Could just have clothes like that!"
So she bent her head over silk and thread '
And made. herself a gown,
With a skirt as brief as a widow's grief
And the neck cut 'way. 'way down. "
And forth she went, with a glad content
In her glowing velvet eye.
To knock 'em" cold with her vesture bold
On Main street, in Shanghai.
But alas! her dad got plenty mad,
When, he saw her clothes so grand.
And he made quite free to spank Pee-Chee
With a stern parental haitd.
So she burned the gown like she saw downtown
When she dined at the gteat hotel,
A'nd her knees don't show when the simoons blow.
And perhaps it s just as well!

Romance in Origin
Of Superstitions

Wrong Side Out. "
If you accidentally put on any un
dergarment one worn next to the
skin "wrong side .out,", it is an
omen of good luck. Do not change
it back upon discovering the mis
take for that would bring bad luck.
A publication of the American Folk
lore society sayst "This direction is
intuitively followed by many .peo
ple who are entirely free from cou
scious ' superstitions." Very . old
people will tell you that when they
were children old people used . to
say that under garments worn wrong
side out "kept ths witcljes away." .
This "wrong side out" supersti
tion is a survival of the practices
by which ourt barbarian ancestors

sought to "fool" the evil spirits with
which they peopled the unseen world
about them. Joined td that was the
idea of the evil eye. By wearing
Jnis garments inside out a man dis
guised himself as' it were and the
evil spirit particularly bent upon do
ing him harm failed to recognize
him and passed him by. Also the
evil eye would be' attracted by the
singularity of a garment worn wrong
side out and let its baleful glance
rest .upon that instead of upon its
wearer. In the far-off times when
the superstition had its birth man,
as a rule, wore only one garment,
tjiat next his skill. The progress
of civilization, has increased the lay
ers hi clothing .iffon a man but the
primal superstition still clings to the
primal 'garment to which it first at
tached itself and which has now
evolved into underclothing.

THE
mm BADGER
BY ARTHUR
The Sore Paw.
' Sure enough! Just as Mr. Coyote
'had promised, he was on hand the
j next night to "help" Benny Badger
catch Ground Squirrels,
i Benny regarded Mr. Coyote some-
"' 'If poull let me go ri do amrthintf
. , you say." he promised
w hat coldly, as the two met in .the
I moonlight. .
"How's your sore paw?" he1 asked
j Mr. Coyote.
Now, Mr. Coyote had just come
1 trotting up without the least sign of
'lameness. But all at once he began
to limp.
' My poor paw s no better, he told
Benny, as a look of pain crossed his
jfacc.
"Let me see it!" Benny said.
And Mr. 'Coyote promptly held out
one of his paws. .
Benny Badger snorted. He seemed
quite disgusted. .
"That is not the same paw you
showed me last night," he cried. .
"My mistake I" said Mr. Coyote
Are Presidents Inaugurated on
March 4?
In spite of the legend which states
that cettain members of the conti
nental congress took the trouble to
scrutinize a calendar covering the
entire 19th century, and selected as
inauguration day, the day which fell
less frequently on Sunday every
fourth year, the facts in the case arc
quite differpnt. In the first place,
the continental congress 'appointed
the fifst Wednesday in January,
1789, as the day on which the people
should choose their electors. The
first : Wednesday in February was
then named as the day on which
electors should choose a president,
and the first Wednesday in March
the government was to go into oper
ation under the new constitution.
The last named day. in 1789. fell
on March 4 hence the fourth of
March, following the election' of a
president, is the day appointed for
his inauguration. By the Act of
1792 it was provided that the presi
dental term of four years should
commence on this date, and by the
amendment to the constitution made
in 1804, if the house of representa
tives did . not .elect a president by
March 4, the vice president was to
become president. March 4th ;s
thus virtually made, by the constitu
tion as well as by statute, the day
when a new presidential term be

and thrust forth another. v
Benny Badger bent over it for a
moment. . s
"It looks all right," he grumbled.
"I can't help that." Mr. Coyote
snarled. "It couldn't hurt me any

To Mr. Coyote's surprise, Benny

"My skin ' is rery, very tough,"
Benny said. "And I can hurt you
much more than this if I want to."
Mr. Coyote believed what Benny
told him. So he made- no more
threats, but began to whine piteously.
"If you'll let me go I'll lo any
thing you say," he promised.
"Will you agree to keep away
from me?" Benny Badger askedhim.
"Yes! Yes!" Mr.: Coyote cried.
"I promise!"

Benny Badger never finished what
he was saying, because he let go of
Mr. Coyote just then. And the mo

leaped away and tore, off on three
legs as if he were in a terrible hurry
to get somewhere else.

Common Sense,
. By J. J. MUNDY.
That Seventh Day.
You find-it .is easy to get into tin
habit of leaving a lot of work until
Sunday, which, by, a liti-le planning,
might be caught- iip with during the
week. -
As time goes, o'l this practice re
quires more of your time on Sunday,
and it is possible that yuu uow do
not look at Sunday as a day to go
to church, but a day to get a lot of
odd jobs done.
This feeling is not right, and you
do not get out of the day what you
were intended to git when one day
in seven was made for rest and wor
ship. Quite aside from the religious as
pect, one day in seven is needed to
keep the general health and energy
what it should he- at its best.
But there is" more to it than mere
rest for . body ' There should he
rest for, the mind aud the heart
there. should be a refreshing' of-the
soul, and churches were built for that
purpose. t
(But to return 10 that work' which
keeps yon at, home Sunday, could
you not plan to, get it divided up in
periods during fhe week and make
it a habit of no work pn Sunday?
The .same sort of habit leads' men
to put off .that vhich should be done
during the , day. nnd then have to
take an hourai the office ' after
dinner at night.
Use your head to plan your work
and get it done in f ix days".
