A QUEER VALENTINE
BY JENNIE P. MERCHANT.
It was the evening of the 14th
of February, 187—, and in the par-
tors of John Fraser's beautiful home
sn the bank of the Hudson, a small
party of intimate friends had assem-
bled to “surprise” Mrs Fraser. It
was her birthday, and her sister-in-
iaw had planned it all so nicely that
little Mrs Fraser had not a suspicion
of what was “in the air.”
Before 10 o'clock, the last (expected)
guest had arrived,
and merriment reigned.

And what thought Miss Frazer?
She had studied the little face long

resemblance to the lover of her young |

quick intuition, had thought, “It
may be Archie's child.” She could |

soft bristles that will go through the
hair and touch the scalp; then every

all the comb should be a very coarse one.
A fine comb irritates the scalp to &

~1n such a winter as the present colds are |

which is now generally accepted that |
colds are not so much due to sudden |
changes of the weather as to the debili-

from them, When the system of an in.

Bleeping in badly ventilated rooms, the

there as ‘acclimation colds.” The best
remedy against colds and influcnzas of
sll kinds therefore is strong. vigorous
health, wholesome food and regular
hours. Persons who are delicate in
