77E MAID OF THE MIST
Tale of LoVe That Happened in the Loveliest Land
on Earth,
tt
The congregation stirred uneasllv In the
high-backed rwws. The old, white-head-d
minister wns talking on a subject that
fceld deepest pain.
"My friends," said he, "the sorest hearts
In Scotland are among us In this church
today. The sun Is shining, and the birds
re singing, but the light has died this
Sabbath morning In a hundred homes
round the glens and hills of tnvergarryl
Our gallant lads of the niack Watch to
day nre lying on the battlefield of Mons.
JThey died like heroes, but, oh! the sor
rowing henrts they left behind. I am a
father too" the old voice broke.
A fine, broad-shouldered lad stirred In
the foremost pew. He had the fighting
spirit, and had longed to hurry to the
front yet chance and circumstance had
held him back. His mother was an In
Valid, and very poor, t'nllke the other
omen of the glen she hod Implored her
Wnly son to stay behind 1
"Oh, Alastalr, I cannot, cannot let you
tro!" she had walled, "your father nnd
grandfather were killed In battle, nnd
you are the only thing on earth that's
left to me! If you go off, I shall die of a
broken heart!"
He had persisted, nnd the shock had
almost killed her. The doctor had as
sured him that her grasp on earthly
things was very wenk. She could not
stand the shock of partlng-oo he did
aot go. He felt a miserable shirker all
the same.
Today his mother sat beside him In the
pew. Behind him he was conscious of a
lovely apparition. Why. It Is Morag.
pretty Morag Just come back from her
grand school In France," said he to him
self. "We used to call her pretty Morag
of the Mist, because the mists lie round
lier home."
A new confuRlon fell upon him now.
His very ears grew hot, nnd he felt that
Ills One, strong hnnds must look both
awkward and uncouth. The narrow pew
seemed for the first time dreadfully
cramped and small to his long limbs. He
movea uneasily.
HIs mother m,H.r.ln,i ,h. ..
as the matter, and she tried to show
mm tnat she sympathized. Out of her
reticule she fished a peppermint drop, and
passed It to him. He mnde an awkward
movement, and It rolled upon the floor,
out to the aisle. The faintest breath of
amusement came from the pew behind.
He crimsoned, and his cars grew redder
than before.
The service closed, and on the purple
moor outside the church the congrega
tion gathered round to talk.
"Young Benderloch, of Beauty, has been
Brought home, badly wounded!" said one
larmer to another. "He's a lieutenant In
the Black Watch and a great lad for the
Sighting. They had to drive him seven
miles from Invcrgarry Station In a mo
torcar, and they say his eyes were closed
nd he looked like death!"
"Lochlnver's daughter has come back
tfrom school In France." another said.
See, here she comes! It is a. beauty
that she Is! Her father Is the hardest
3nan I pity her!"
The fine, broad-shouldered boy stood
"with his mother, and she called him to
come oft. He hesitated, then he climbed
the little pony cart and drove her home.
The eyes of pretty Morag followed him.
Tt..J- ,1 -, .. . .
uuims mc uiiowing rortnignt many
things had come to pass. Each day
young1 Alastalr had met the pretty Morag
In the glen. Down where the River Gar
ary flowed, beneath the rowans and thu
fclrehes they had sat.
"It's lonely that I am upon the Dhu
Joch side," the girl had said to him In
her soft Highland accent that no sojourn
In the land of France could change, "i
wish I could have stayed In dear gay
Paris, for I'm tired of this quiet place."
She looked so lovely that the simple
Jad had gazed his very heart away.
"I hear that Benderloch Is home," said
he. "He Is the handsomest lad that I
hare ever seen. At least he was I have
jiot seen him for three years. They tell
Sie he Is one of the bravest officers In
the Blnek Watch."
A pang shot through the other's heart.
H gladly would have given his life to
heir such words as these from her young
lip.
"I love you, pretty Morag, more than
anything on earth." he said.
She laughed right up at him coquettlsh-

Look Ahead
There are some people who ride all
through the journey of life with their
fcccka to the horses' heads. They are
always looking into the past. They are
forever talking about the good old times,
and how different things were when they
were young. There Is no romance In the
vqrtd now snd no heroism. The very
vlnUrs SAd summers are nothing to
ht they used to be; in fact, life Is
attogethtr on a small, commonplace scale.
JCpw. that Is a miserable sort of thing.
It brings -a. kind of paralyzing chill over
life, and petrifies the natural spring of
joy that should be forever leaping up to
meet the fresh new mercies that the day
kteps lirlnftn-.

Ono day the prett. Morag came dis
tressed. "Oh. Alnstnlr." she tried, "my
father has got up n dreadful scheme.
The fnrm's been doing badlv and he
wants to marry me off to some wealthy
man s "son. There's n money agreement
In It Will you help me to run away?"
Slow tcar3 were running down het
dewy cheeks. The boj had nexer seen
such beauty In distress before
"Oh, Morag, would you run nuay with
me?" he cried breathlessly, "lou know
how much I love you'"
She laughed and pouted, with the tears
still on her cheek. "You slt boy." she
cried; "why, that would never do! Later
on I might, but for the present I have
made out a scheme. You know that old
thatched cottage on tho moors? No one
lives there Tonight ion come beneath
mj window with a lantern nnd some rope
and a ladder I will slip out and you
will tnkc me to that lottngc. where father
cannot find me You will leave me there,
but In the daytime you will come and
bring me food!"
"But your poor father. Morag?" the lad
snld, dubiously.
The girl's eyes flashed. "He's planned
to m.irr) me to this rich man's son within
three das!" she cried.
lito that night the lad, the ladder and
the lantern were beneath her window.
The glrh descended, and they walked for
miles upon the moor.
Only when dawn came In they reached
the cottage. She bade him leave her there
nnd come back In the afternoon. Her
spirits were not quite as high now as
before.
"Morag, I want to marry you," he said
again that afternoon. "Plenre tell me If
ou care for mo at all?"
"I have nlwas liked you and been fond
of you since we were children together at
school, Alnstnlr," snld she, "but mar-
I "age is n serious quesi-.on- i 11 ten you
I ... "...
Thcrc's one thing I mut sav, nnd that
Is that I know the man your father
wants you to marry He I" voung Ben
derloch of Beauty, now almost better of
his wound! Your father nnd his father
have arranged It all. and "
"Youuc Benderloch wnnts to marry
me" she cried. "Or Is It Just that I am
being bought and sold?"
"My dear," said oung Alastalr, "I
think thnt Benderloch was only too will
ing to fall In with the nrrnngement. Who
could help loving you? In Invergarry they
are salng he has always cared for you
and he is rich'"
The pretty Morng failed to note the
great effort that these words had cost
the lad. "I suppose that young Bender
loch will be crazy to get back to the front
again!" she said. "Why did jou stay at
home, I wonder?"
"I wanted to go as much as he, but I
had other claims at home," the lad re
plied, a note of pain In his voice. "Young
Benderloch Is In the regular army, while
I am only a farmer!"
The girl looked up and heard the new
hurt note. "I think I care a little bit for
you, Alastalr," she said.
"Hcio Is a fprlg of white heather I
have found," said he. "When I come
back this evening will you wear It on
your heart? Then I will know you really
care for me!"
The girl laughed gaily and the lad
walked home across the rolling moors,
with hope and happiness to bear him
company.
When evening came he sought the lit
tle shieling once again He found It dark
and desolate. Where was tlie lovely
laughing face that he had hoped to find?
Gone, vanished, though he looked for her
an hour!
He lit a match and on the floor he
found a note. With trembling hands he
opened it and read:
"Today young Benderloch came here for
me. I find that I care for him. after all,
and so we have gone off to get married!
Please forgive me and forget'"
The lad smiled a slow, bitter smile.
"And I had thought that she would wear
my heather at her heart!" he said.

The Brighter Side of Life
In the common acts of every day In
the house, on -the street as we pass, in
the stores when making the most trivial
purchae. In the workshop at the regular
operations, In the office with its dally
routine. In the friend's home when we
pay a visit how many are the oppor
tunities for a bright word of hopeful,
cheery salutation?
How many a remark may draw atten
tion to the silvery lining. It may be, of
a dark cloud, or to the sunshine lying
all about our pathway even If no bet
ter, a Jest or witticism uttered In good
humor, something that will put ourselves
nnd others In touch with the brightest.

can help In no small degree to make the
world wag along better by doing the
most ordinary things, even the most diffi
cult or unpleasant duties. In the pleas
antest way.
The "Temperament" Excuse
Sometimes you hear of an excuse for
faults- "It is my temperament." There
never was a temperament that had not
Its good as well as Its evil possibilities.
The truth Is that we Inherit our tem
perament with Its natural perversions,
and it Is our business in life to shake
off the perversions, in order that we
may do the best work we can. If all
who have excused themselves for self
ishness and evil because of their "tem
perament" had recognized that they
were really excusing the perversions of
their temperament, and not the tempera
ment Itself, much needless pain and sor
row might have been avoided.
To Wash Silk Chiffon
M.ike a soapy lather In some lukewarm
water, soak the chiffon In It. rub some
soap on the hands, gently draw the chif
fon through them till quite clean, rinse
well In plenty of clear, cold water. Do
not wring It. but squeeze out as much
water as possible Roll In a dry oloth
and Iron with a medium hot Iron and
the chiffon -will look as fresh as new.
The most delloate colors may be washed
In this way, but hand-painted chiffon
must be ironed on the wrong side. Pon

the same way

Is an annual problem. Tho intermediate i made of Alice blue cheviot of a striped
age, when she is neither child nor young
lady, is the one most difficult to dress
appropriately, and to achieve it requires
taste and careful planning.
Women are sometimes tempted to see
what their friends' children are wearing
and then to purchase the same thing on
general principles. While, no doubt, it Is
better to wear clothes that are too com
monplace than those of too pronounced
style, tho child's personality should
come In for some consideration Just as
much ns that of any mature person.
The plain and simple cloth&s are al
ways the best, not only in the way of
service, but as an actual matter of style
It goes as a matter of course that they
should be made of as good material as
the purse will allow, and that they should
be cut after the best patterns.
The Ideas that dominate the fashions
for women very often take the lead all
down the line and appear, modified or
tiansposed, in young girls' and children's
clothes.
The capa motive, for Instance, Is one
that came In some time ago, but its
popularity increases as time goes on
rather than diminishes It has been Intro

In Itself. It would be a very good choice
for a slrl of from 12 to U years of age
and one that would do for'school and al
most uny occasion that would arise at
that age.
The details, such ns the piping of the
belt, the buttons and the wide-braid that
forms a Joint Just above the point of tho
capo, add very much to the general ef
fect of the coat.
But It Is the collar that Is the piece de
resistance. It Ik of the silket beaver,
a fur that used to be very popular for
children and Is again this year. Its
division, at the back, makes It quite a
noval affair, mnething that gives It
character and stamps It with the oea

THE MARRIED WOMAN
Is She Not Sometimes Careless in the Mallevof Her Early
Morning Appearance?
"My dear," cried one married woman
lo nnother lately, "J can't understand
how John's lovo for me seems to bo
cooling off so! He really used to be
a devoted husband, and was nlways very
anxious to lake me out to places with
him! Now he prefers spending his time
outside the homel I do feel so worried
about It!"
Her friend looked at her critically.
The hour wns D n. m. nnd "John" had
gone off to business Just nn hour ngo.
His wife's appearance wn3 scarcely cal
culated to arouse enthuslnsm In any
brtnst. She woro a faded dressing gown
with n variety of stains and marks, upon
Its fnr-from-frcsh surface. Her hair was
sci owed up In the tightest, moot unbe
coming llttlo knot on tho top of tier
head. It hnd n straggling nlr nbout It
too, and one could see that no morning
rites hnd yet been performed upon It.
The second mnrrlcil woman upoke. "1
once mnde the same mistake, that you
arc making now." bIic snld slowly, "but
my husband told mo nbout It In time, bj
1 pulled mynelf up short and Btarted In
to reform. I hardly like to give you
advice, however, becauso I am afraid
I shall offend you!" .
The other stared In blank amazement,
then she spoke. "So, I shall not bo
offended, for I am so unhappy about
John that I would do anything to make
him enro for ine the way ho used to
do," said who.
"You must remember this," her mnr
rled friend replied, "John Is a most at
tractive man nnd could have married
many better looking women than yourself
had ho so chosen. But Tio was in love
with you so chose you fiom tho rest
nnd married you. You were very happy
nnd you fell Into tho error of thinking
thnt his love would last perpetually with
out your bothering to make much ef
fort over tho keeping of It. Do you
see?"
"So. I don't," the other replied, per
plexedly. "I gave In to John on every
subject, never crossed him In any way,

HOUSEWIFE AND

Marrying a Shy Man
Ciliis sometimes despise the shy man,
because It occurs to them that he Is n
physical coward. And women, no mat
ter whnt their stntlon In life, their edu
cation or their depth of feeling, unani
mously, and ns a sex. abhor the man
who Is a coward. But shyness Is tlu
outcome of nn overwhelming sense of
one's own Inferiority.
There hive been big men who, when
Intmduced to a little girl in a ballroom,
have flushed scarlet under their tan,
and have shifted from foot to foot like
overgrown schoolboys. When a shy man
wins a glrl'3 affection he really thinks
he Is tho luckiest man on earth. Of
coins.-, ho ought to think this, hut some
men only say they think it. Therefore,
girls, do not lnugh at the shy innn, for
when ou get to know him you may be
sorry you lnughed.
Washing Velvets
Many people discard VPlvet garments
which aie only soiled and not worn out
bocaui' of the supposed difficulty of
washing them In such a way that when
dry they are not crumpled and creased:
but the following method will be found
effectual In making them practically ns
good ns new. Tnke the garment nnd well
wash in plenty of warm water and soap,
rinse well several times, and without
squeezing or wringing out the water, hang
up to dry Just as it comes from the
rinsing. When dry It will be found free
from all creases or wrinkles; the secret
lies In not wringing tho wnter out, and
thereby creasing tho material.
T
o Renovate Velvet
Have ready a good hot Iron. Place over
It, .on the lint side, a very damp cloth, and
while thu steam nrUes from it pass over
gently the velvet which is lo be renovated,
using a very soft brush to the pile of the
elvet. Bo careful to brush one way. Tho
creates, etc.. will come out directly, and
the velvet will look like new. Tried and
pioved successful.
To Clean White Kid
White kid shoes, belts, etc., can be
cleaned quite easily, and look equal to
new, by dipping a flannel In benzine and
rubbing, getting a frth piece as It gets

everything I could to make htm happy.
What do you mean? I've simply lived
for John nnd John Uctie."
"I mean thnt you have failed to keep
his love, through Jgnorance," the can
did friend replied In ft firm tone. "To
make yoursoif a jrfect household drudge'
and slave Is not tho way Id keop any
man's hearl. Men aie curious creatures
nnd they soon loso reapeot for the horns

and dowdy and untidy."
"Oh, you ato tnlktng; about clothes
now!' the other cried,
".Vo, only In an Indirect way," answered
her friend, earnestly. "I am talking of
tho necessity of looking pretty and at
tractive nt all "times In tho home. Just
look In tho mirror now nnd seo yourself
Where Is tho pretty, dainty girl that
John fell In love with and mnrrled five
years ngu?"
"But l luivo to get up so eutly In order
to get breakfast for John that I have no
time to fuss up," tho other cried. "I Just .
Jump nut of bed when the nlatm goe, slip
on a few clotlvs nnd this nloo warm I
drosslngjgown nsd have breakfast ready
In a few minutes'
"Better let John, get breakfast for him
self thnn appear before hhn looking so
perfectly dreadful every uioriilrur," said
tho candid friend, solemnly. "1 want to
Impress one thin upon you, nd It Is
this: John sooa o!T every morning with
a snapshot of you Imprinted on his
memory that will last the whole day. It
Is not o pretty picture, either, let ma tell
you that' He goes Into tho city and sees
lots nnd lots of uttractlva women every
where, fresh nnd dainty and altogether
charming. The streets are full of them,
tho i-nrs nre full of them, the city of
fices nro full of them, and they are tho
greatest contrast to you. I do not for a
moment wish to say that John prefers
any of them to yourself but I do think
that ho wishes you would smarten Up n.
bit, and discard these dreadful dressing
gowns and curling pins at the breakfast
tablet"
The first mnrrled woman regarded her
candid friend with a thoughtful nlr. "I
think that you are right!" she said.
"From this day forth I will reform."
Her Wedding Gown
She stitched the dainty silken seams
With loving care,
And many glrlUh little dreams
Are hidden there.
I saw her lay her happy face
Caressingly against the lace.
But llttlo did the others guess
The day-dreams Bwect
Sho sewed Into her wedding dress
With stitches neat
The dimples, blushes, hopes and fears
The memories, the smiles the fears.
Milady's Toilet Table
With the fashionable brilliant tints In
gowns and hats, the pale-cheeked woman
doc3 not look her best. A simple wray
of producing a faint, pretty color Is by
dashing cold water on the face fre
quently. Another method is to rub a small piece
of Ice over the face. This has the added
advantage of closing the pores and mak
ing the flesh firmer.
A physician said once that If a woman
who wanted color In her cheeks would
bury a pot of rouge two miles from her
house nnd walk out there every day to
seo If It were still there, she would
quickly gain the desired coloring.
A llttlo skin food properly applied to
the tissues combined with a gentle mas
rage will Improve the skin when the cold
winds have to be faced a little later on.
This will save chapping and wrinkle.
When choosing a cream consider tho
nntuie of your skin. If It Is at all dry,
do not use a cream with peroxide In It.
If. however, the skin Is Inclined to be
oily, get one with ns little grease In It
as possible.
A llttlo bornclc acid dusted over tho
face after using the cream takes away
the oily look. Creams scented with a
few drops of lemon are very good, as
they bleach the skin, and do away with
the heavy odor of a highly perfumed
product.
Valqe of Cheeriness
Who can estimate the medicinal power
of one cheerful life In the home-ot one
serene, balanced soul?
The workman who rejoices In his work
and laughs away his discomfort Is the
man who is sure to rise, for It Is what
we do easily and what we like to do that
we do well.
The most of us make our backs ache
carrying useless, foolish burdens. We
carry luggage and rubbish that are of
no earthly use, but which sap our
strength and keep us Jaded and tired to
no purpose. If we could only learn to
hold on to the thlnes wnrth toi,m j
drop the rubbish-letting go the useless, !
the foolish, the silly, the hamperers, and I
mu uiuisn ini ninaer we should not
only make progress, but we should also
keep happy and harmonious.
Don't Idly Dream, But Do
Don't Idly dream! There Is no time for
dreaming.
No time to drone and loiter on the way
With opportunity eBch day Is teeming. '
That, till you deign to waken, will not
stay.
Be then alert, for all around you calling
Are voices, to press onward, heard by
few;
Heed them and venture, with no fear of
falling;
Don't Idly dream, but do!

American Worry Habit
Ban to Beauty
"American women worry too much,"
says Maude Leslie, one of the beauties
of tho English stage, who Is now
playing In Philadelphia. Miss Lj8
Is a vory much- photographed joung
woman, particularly In her native Lon
don, where her pictures nre displayed
among those of tho Kings nnd Queans
and fighting generals that adorn tho
shop windows of the Strand. "Almatt
any woman can be beautiful," declares
this actress, "not straight featured per
haps, nor possessed of nil the attribute!
which go lo tho composition of b"auly
MAUDE LESLIE
In tho most literal nnd, I may add, th
most commonplace acceptanco of ths
term; but beauty In Its real significance.
Tho greatest mistake mado by American
womon Is their habit of worrying, and
worrying about trllles.
"The American mnn gives hi entire life,
time In working to prevent the women
of his family from worrying yet they
do worry constantly. It Is a matter of
national temperament, I suppose We
English women nre naturally placid, nnd
placidity is worth cultivating, don't you
think? The worrying woman Is never
beautiful. The pernicious habit stamps
Itself Indelibly upon her features and ex
pression. Fine lines about the eyes and
deep Indentures nt the sides of tho mouth
cause her to look oldT thnn she 13 and
give a dlsagtceable sag to her muscles
I wish I could Impress upon every woman
In whom the healthful desire to ho beau
tiful still survives the urgent necessity
for overcoming the worry habit. Once
kill this ogre of the mind nnd he. as
well as his Hordo of Ills, will never be
able to resurrect themselves. It can be
done, too, hut It requhes mental disci
pline. If one has nn earnest desire to
overcome the habit, It Is well to begin
with the very first trivial worry of daily
llfo which 'confronts one. Put It reso
lutely aside. If It appertains to domcstla
affairs, take it philosophically."
The Value of a Smile
It Is not many words but much loving
that we need In order to find health, hap
piness and success.
Study the art of smiling; the honey of
n smile catches more henrts than ths
pepper of a Mieer, or the vinegar of a
frown. Smile, and keep on smiling
