limr Kate:
I know ou will bo dead sore at mo.
but 1 could not do nothing elso and per
haps somo dny you will understand why 1
dono It. Anyway. I havo given Hilly his
clianco. Ho has got Just as good a show
as any boy of growing up nnd being a good
man, and lie won't ever, need to know
that there are sin h things ns thiol os and
prisons. He'll learn to think of Mis. Smith
as mother and lie won't ever know that his
real mother was In tho stir. Ho will think
of ills mint Nan, ns a llttlo red beaded girl
who loted him and brought him toys, and
ho won't never have bitterness or wicked
ness come Into his life through us. He is
going away.
I will tell you all about it, so you can
get the worst of your madness off before
vou como out. i.tuso I know when ou read
tills you will want to kill me. and perhaps
ou will, but 1 don't care. 1 have dono the
only thing I knew to do for Hilly.
After Mrs. Smith's baby died, she would
n't look at Hilly for a long time. Then
sho got to holding him nnd rocking him to
siren nt night, nnd nfter a while she could
n't let him out of her sight I was awful
plad, cjuso I thought peihaps she would
bo always glad to have him, and then
one day I benrd them talk about going
to Australia. Mrs. Smith didn't llko tho
houso since Paul was gone. She stops and
listens as If bho expects to hear him round
tho corner, and she don't want to go In
his room, and she acts queer. Mr. Smith
thinks It sho got away where ver tiling
was different, sho would forpct sooner, or
If she didn't forget sho wouldn't remem
ber with so much pain.
His brother wrote from Australia and
asked them to como thoro it long ttmo ago.
He Is In tho sheep business and doing very
well. They talked It over and talked It
oer. and now they have, decided to go.
It most killed mo. cause this Is tho only
home I ever knew, nnd I didn't know what
would become of Illlly. I felt I couldn't
take him back to tho room. I said to Mrs.
Smith ono day that It klnda kicked my feet
from under me to think of Hilly losing his
homo and tho mother and things he has
had for two years. She looked nt me a
long time and then she said, "Nan, Illlly
don't need to lose his home." I said,
'What do you mean?" "I will take him
with me," she said. It took my breath
away for a mlnlt to think of losing Hilly,
as he Is nil I got, and I guess she saw
It In my face cause she said quickly,
"Vou can come, too." I did not say noth
ing for n long time. I thought that this
was my c)iance, I would get away from the
old crowd, get away from all the things
I hato and yet seemed klnda d rawed to.
I could Ieae this llfo that may bo will
take me down and down, and Illlly and I
could commenco over again In a new
country. Then I thought of you. Kate, nnd
how you are coming out soon, and If both
Hilly and me was gone, you would Have
Itothlnc to hold to, and I know you, and
I know you would go straight to Hell,
There would be no half way place for you,
you would keep on sliding. And, Kate, I
couldn't leave you. Hilly can get on with
out me, he won't never know no difference,
but you would be all alone, and It's hard
enough to try to bo decent when once
you've been In the atlr even with friends to
help you, and when you come out, Kate, I
am going to be waiting for you at the gate,
and you are going to make a fight and win
out and live decent
I thought of all this when I sat there
looktnr at Mr. Smith and than t m
I "No, I can't co, but you can take nuiy.'V

In a few months you were coming out, In

In the opinion of this champion of high

"The diy clause In the Lever fnod bill,"

Why She Was Insulted
mo about mo cnnnry-cuiorcu queen ana
lingered around her desk I began to be
Irltatcd.
"Ono day sho burst In on mo In a tor
rent of tears and said thnt sho had been
grossly insulted by ono of our visitors. In
vain I tried to point out to her that she
was ns much at fault herself that the
chango In tho nttltudo of men toward her
was duo to tho phj-slcnl chango In herself
Hut It was no use. And Anally It was
necessary for mo to dispense with her
services itnd loso tho most capablo girl
I ever had."
Olrls of tho telephono switchboard, girls
of the olllco desks, do j-ou not realize that
a painted check Is n signal flag to the
world? To bo deemed good and puro and
noble you must not nlono feel that j'ou are
so In j-our own hearts. You must avoid
tho nppenrnnco of evil. Tho world judges
you ns It sees you not ns you know your
self to be
And there Is no beauty like the natural
bloom of jouth A faded check becomes
n ludicrous, often a ghostly travesty of
naturo when touched up by the so-called
appliances of tho modern "beauty special
ist" flod did not Intend human beings to be
painted, or ho would havo had them
born so.
There arc beauty appliances far more
cffectlvo than thoso of tho rouge box. The
plrl who fills her llfo with bcautlfut deeds
nnd beautiful thoughts, who busies her days
nnd her hands with tho service of the Mas
ter, need not worry about hor color or her
complexion Her soul will shine through
nnd will radinto ItH glow on tho gloomiest
daj".

Aladdin
When I was a beggarly boy
And lived In n cellar damp
I had not a friend nor a toy.
But I had Aladdin's lamp
When I could not sleep for tho cold
I had fire enough In my brab.
And bullded, with roof3 of" gold.
My beautiful castles In Spain'
Since then I have tolled day and night.
I have money nnd power good store.
But I'd give all, my lamps of silver bright
For the ono that Is mlno or more
Take, Fortubem, whatever you choose ;
You gave, and may snatch again :
I havo nothing 'twould pain me to lose.
For I own no more castles In Spain '
