If there is any living thing that seems to have nothing to relieve its ugliness It is the angleworm that crawls slimily across tlie sidewalk after a heavy rain. And yet even that is beautiful. Put a bit of its upper skin under the micro scope and your ideas of the poor little worm will change mightily, it shim tners like the softest satin and spar kles with all the colors of the rainbow, for it is covered with little fine lines crossing each other like the cuttings in a glass vase. The Smooth Handle. Everything has two handles—one by R'hich It may be borne, another by which it cannot If your brother acts unjustly, do not lay hold on the alfnlr by the handle of his injustice, for by that it cannot be borne, but rather by the opposite, that he Is your brother, that he was brought up with you, and thus you will lay hold on it as it is to be borne.—Epictetus.

Jin had come in a motor car, and he had come a r W- lon g way, but he hardly knew why lie had come. hardly knew in these days why he did any- I thing. But, then, one must do something. '/ xy '*■ wo "hl be Christmas soon, and he thought j that he would rather get it over on the Riviera than anywhere else, because the blue and gold weather would not remind him of other Christmases which were gone pure, white, cold ( hristmases, musical with joy bells and sweet with aromatic pine, the scent of trees born to be Christmas trees. 1 here had been a time when he had fancied it would be a wonder ful thing to see the Riviera, lie had thought what it would be liko to hi- a rich man and bring a certain girl here for a moon of honey and roses. She was the most beautiful girl in the world, or he believed her so, which is exactly the same thing, and he had imagined the joy of walk ing with her on just such a terrace as this Casino terrace where he was walking now, alone. She would be in white, with one of those long ermine things that women call stoles, an ermine muff (the big, granny kind that swallows girlish arms up to the dimples in their elbows) and a hat which they would have bought together in Paris. I hey would have bought jewels, too, in the same street where they found the hat, the Rue de la Paix, which she had told him she longed to see. And she would be wearing some of the jewels with the white dress just a few, not many, of course. A string of pearls (she loved pearls), a swallow brooch (he had heard her say she admired those swallow brooches, and he never forgot anything she said), with per haps a sapphire studded buckle on her white suede belt. Yes, that would be all, except the rings, which would lie hidden under her glove* on the dear little hands whose nails were like enameled rose leaves. \\ hen she moved, walking beside him on the terrace, there would be a mysterious silkv whisper and rustle, something like that you hear in the woods in the spring, when the leaves are crisp with tl«iir pale green youth, and you shut your eyes, listening to the breeze telling them the secrets ,, — s oflife - Ihere would be a fragrance about the white dress \L and the laces and ermine and the silk things that you could not see, a fragrance as mysterious as the rus tling, lor it would seem to belong to the girl and not to have come from any bottle or bag of sachet pow der a sweet, fresh, indefinable fragrance, like the smell of a tea rose after rain. I hev would have walked together, they two, and he would have been so proud of her that every time a passerby cast a glance of admi ration at her face he would feel that lie could hardly keep in a laugh of joy or a shout: "She is mine! She is mine!" But lie had been poor in the old days, when from far away he had thought of this terrace and the moon of honey and roses and love. It had all been a dream then, as it was now, too sweet ever to come true. lie thought of the dream and of the boy who had dreamed it half bitterly, half sadly, on this his first day in the place of the dream. He was rich, as rich as he had seen himself in the impossible picture, and it would have been almost too easy to buy the white dress and the ermine and the pearls, but there was no one for whom he would have been happy to buy them. The most beautiful girl in the world was not in his world now, and none other had had the password to open the door of his heart since she had gone out, locking it be hind her. ''She would have liked the auto," he said to himself, and then, a moment later, "I wonder why I came." It was a perfect Riviera day. Everybody in Monte Carlo who was not in the Casino was sauntering on the terrace in the sun, for it was that hour before luncheon when people like to say "llow do you do ? llow nice to meet you here!" to their friends. The young man from far away had not, so far as he knew, either y — *— enemies or friends at Monte Carlo. •w 1 was n<)t conscious of the slight 'h ' V-'L test desire tb say "How do you do ?" to an,v P rett y P eo pl e he met, .
