Helen Moore had broken the speed
ilmit, successfully, on her way out
to her father’s country home at Great
Neck. Her little roadster had eaten
up the miles as if famishing until they
were all consumed,

turn. There must have been two sim-

the groceries in the wrong car.
Helen grasped the facts Immediately,
and scanned the main street for the
other roadster. If it were In sight it

two cars careened along that

was then that the tweed cap driver

He had not made the observation be-

the full capacity of his engine's power.
Now, with true gentlemanly tact
he shut off gas, slowed almost Imper-
ceptibly, and let the girl drive well
past him. He fell fo wondering then
if he had been racing with a mad
woman, for she was turning straight
in the roadway so that a collision
was only averted by swift, intelligent
nse of the brake and steering wheel.
The sudden stop flung Davis with
a bang against his wheel, It was then
that he heartily gave vent to an ex.
pression not flattering to woman driv-
ers,
“You have my groceries!” the an-

the other.

help a glow of anger, He might
have looked to see if the box was

Change Means Growth.
No man ought to be the same man
he was ten years ago. Nature teaches
us that we are new creatures by re
newing the cells and tissues every
seven years. Yet In the midst of
physicial change it 1s possible for a
man to remain static in the higher
things of life. He may be ro constant
to a youthful idegl that he is looked
upon as the embodiment of stability,
but he will soon be recognized as a
fossil from which life has gone. Life
Is a growing thing. It must increase,
As soon as the sum of its energy Is re
quired to keep up the repairs of the
human animal he begins to take a
place among those headed for the sun
set side of life. Man Is either growing
