How mich?" "Ch; I fuess twenty-five cents will be enougn for her I'here aren't many. Brian out twenty-five cents and added it to the dollar, then handed it to Ruth. Had she thought he would give her more, 80 prevent ing her being placed where she would have to borrow from Mrs. Murphy again, she was disappoinied. "Brian" she said, after a pause, "don't you think we'd befter sit down together and plan to nse vour salary to the best advantage, like the young couple in the story?" "Very well, perhaps it will be the best way." It was late w.én they finished. Ruth was too amazed to speak when Brian told ber what he earned. Why, she often had paid more for a grown than his entire monthly salary. But she hid her surprise from him. She had married him knowing he was a poor man---how poor, she never had dreamed--and she would do the best she could. So they apportioned their income. So much for rent: so much for food, ice, lights; so much for rough help. The rest they divided Ruth to do as shé pleased with her half, Brian to have the same privilege. "But, dear, we haven't counted a penny~for outing or theatres," "she said when, finally, they! got up to re- tire. "No, I guess we'll have to do with- out many theatres for a while. We'll connted we do go to the theatre we will ea pay for our 'own ticket." "Oh, how funny!" and Ruth laugh- ed hysterically, Not that she really thought it funny, but that it seemed ------ * £0 to the movies occasionally, and if so utterly incongruous. The idea that she should buy her own ticket, and h® his, out of their part of the mea- gre amount left for clothes, ete., made her hysterical "How long do you think it will be Brian, before you can earn more?" she asked soberly, the next morning at breakfast. She had eaten nothing, peither had she slept. She was be- ginning to realize that, even though she loved him and was willing to economize, that unless he quickly brought in more money they would scarcely afford to live even in the, to her, mean little place they now oc- cupied. "Oh, very soon. I shall get some paying cases before long. There's a man down on Long Island owes me a little money. I'll try to collect that. Is there anything par- ticular you want right away?" "No, dear, but I've been thinking. You see, our clothes will soon be out of style and 8habby. We will have to have new ones. We can't possibly buy clothes on what you earn now." "Don't cross bridges until you come to them. I don't see but we are pretty well fixed. By the time we need clothes, we'll be able to have them." ' Ruth bit her lip and said no more. And not even Brian's compliment because of her improved breakfast, could bring a smile to her face. Brian really meant what he said. He didn't see but that they were pretty well fixed. He never had been accustomed to luxury, and the neat, simply furnished rooms, with the dainty muslin curtains at the win- dows and soft-toned rag rugs on the floor, the ' comfortable chairs, big table--which, after dinner was clear- ed away, they used as a reading table --geemed to him all that was neces- sary for comfort. Brian thought a great deal of that; his comfort. Had he not, perhaps he might have been more successful in g husiness way. TALKING ~~ With Lorna Moon IT OVER -- A New Love For the The Pretty Young Thing has bought a car of her very own, a snappy little roadster with a maroon body. When she {isn't out in it, which isn't very often to be sure, she spends her time round the gar- age walking round: the car; thump- ing ,its chest, telling it to say "nine- ty-nine' or to put out its tongue, or whatever it is that one says to a car when one loves it very much and it: is new and one's very own! The Pretty : Young Thing used to -be-in love with a man--quite the wrong kind of a man. That was long ago --- oh, quite a long time 4 ago--almost folk weeks ago, that was before she # bought the car! She was getting to be quite a Hoover Baby with her thin white cheeks. We were "all a little bit worried about her. You see we are all very fond of the Pretty Young Thing and we couldn't for the life of us see any- thing in the man to love. We hoped that when he shirked his duty to his country the Young Thing would lhe disillusioned; but that only made Pretty Young Thing. her stop speaking about him, didn't make her stop loving him. Then when she found he lost money playing cards that only seem- ed to stir her maternal instinct and she wanted to reform him. Oh Vl tel you we/worried a good deal about the Pretty Young Thing. We didn't know what to do. A trip had done no good, a course of Red Cross train- ing hadn't helped a bit. She had no desire to go the the front as a nurse and she didn't yearn to be a soldier- otte. In fact, every normal instinct of nineteen years seemed to be dor- mant,~€ Then one day she came home with color in her cheeks and a reckless glint: in her eye and inférmed the family that she "had spent all her money on a roadster which was the "sweetest, dearest most perfectly ridiculously cute"--and all the other things that nineteen can think of in five minutes. The family was staggered for a moment, but it is recovering rapidly; for the Pretty Young Thing has solv- éd her own problem. She isn't in love with any man now, she is sim- ply head over heels in love with that saucy little roadster, and as her Dad fervently said "Thank Heaven she can't marry that. - She can only be arrested for speeding and 1 guess 1 can foot that bill." it INDIANS NO LONGER OUTCASTS : re -- Red Man Has Taken Mis Place With Other Respected Members of American Social Life.

Never was he in a hurry to accomplish anything; another day was coming, he would do it then. He had a very optimistic mature, and a way of impressing people who did not know him, fostering in them the belief that hé would accomplish great things. But Mrs. Clayborne had seen the weakness in his char- acter, and had feared for Ruth's hap- piness because of it. : Had Brian been, or had Mrs. Clay- borne thought him, more stable, she would not have minded his poverty, and she would have assisted him and Ruth until such a time as they could get along alome. But she sensed his weakness, and felt sure that sooner or later Ruth would wake up to the sort of man she had married and come back home. Not that Mrs. Clayborne thought Brian a bad man. She didn't. And he wasn't! but she did sense his limitations. He was, he always would be, a financial failure--so she thought. And so, after a month or two of life in New York, had Ruth begun to think. It was so belittling, Ruth thought, to count every penny. Yet, never did she voice a complaint. She went to market in all the bravery of her expensive gowns, carried a basket, and bought a little of this, and a lit- tle of that, and, as Mrs. Murphy said, "lugged it home." To say Ruth was happy, would not be true. It would be equaly untrue to say she was unhappy at this time. She was still very much in love with Brian; yet she often spent nearly her entire day weeping. Her surround- lings, in spite of all she could do, de- pressed her, She longed for the dainty, beautiful things to which she all her life, had been accustomed.

By operating on a mule scientists have succeeded in making him voice- less.--News Item. A few can touch the magic string, And noisy Fame is proud to win them, Alas for those who never sing, But die with all the music in them! --Oliver Wendell Holmes. How often, as the dusk drew near And vagrant breezes stirred the pool, We've paused beside the path to hear The evening carol of the mule. A simple and unstudied strain, As from a heart that overflowed, It rose and fell and rose again, And died in echoes down the road. But science, with its ruthless knife, These vibrant cords has learned to sever; That song that spoke the joy of life In zigzag bars is stilled forever. A kindly and impulsive brute In silence must pursue his ways, The song upon his lips is mute, And all his days are brayless days. Now, science may be right, of course, Perhaps the mule is no musician, And merely brayed Hil he was hoarse To gratify a false ambition. Perhaps the Muses passed him by, Caruso's genius may have missed him; And yet it's sad that he must die With all that music in his system! : "American. oe Appropriation For Roads. Cornwall, Aug. 22.-At a special meeting of the Counties Council of the united counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry, to consider the advisability of authorizing expen- diture for roads, a by-law was passed authorizing the sub-roads committee to borrow $45,000 to be spent on the roads this year and to be paid out of the Government subsidy.

Mr. Caboodle was always exceed- irgly courteous to the fair sex. One day when he was airing his views on politeness he remarked that he had never seen an ugly woman. A woman standing near, who hap- pened to have a flat nose, overheard him and, confronting him said: "gir, look at me and confess that i am ugly!" "Madame," replied Caboodle, "like the rest of your sex, you are an angel fallen from the skies, but it was not your fault that you happened to our nose." Worse Than Warfare.

To De Burned Naked, Leaving Clothes to Others. * The cold-blooded, matter-of-fact way in which it is. proposed to strip the German dead of their grave clothes is astoundingly illustrated by an article in the Elberfeld Freie Presse of Thursday, April 18: Not only have the living a duty to the Fatherland, but also the dead. The duty of the dead is to be buried without clothes. It has often been noticed that the dead are being bur- ied not only with clothes, but with underclothes, and even shoes and stockings. ' This is a beautiful custom, no doubt, but it is impossible in war- time. The paramount necessity to- day to stretch our stocks of woollen goods makes its imperative that we should abafidon this custom. Everything depends to-day on our utilization of every possible piece of clothing, and only the softhearted- ness of our authorities and tender- ness and consideration towards the feelings and susceptibilities of the people have so far prevented the compulsory stripping of the dead be-, fore interment. A hint, however, has now been given to all the authorities connected with burials to put a stop to this practice and to confiscate all un- necessary clothing. If the dead cannot be buried nak- ed, why not give them paper clothes? Our paper industry is far enough advanced to-day to enable us to give the dead worthy and even beautiful clothing. It is now the duty of the Govern- ment to promulgat2 the decision that only tlose who succumb to contagi- ous diseases shall be buried in their linen. Otherwise this linen and all other clothing and underclothing must belong to the community.
