Tze Golden-Plated Rule
The Plated Ruld Lays Off
The ocean was rough on Lnbor Day A mere life gunrd to
Crowds hugged the shore tight.
So light I couldn't dive through.
So I ducked outside the ropes.
I hate it Inside them anyway.
Human Mulllgatawncy there.
So I double-spirnled outside.
Then 1 turned on my back.
Floated, hands. under hrad.
Feet croised, eyes closed 0 bliss!
Neptune's big cradle rocked me.
ills great orchestra lulled me.
Bassoon, drum, violin I picked out.
Had Jut caught the leit-motif.
Hummed It under the roar.
Was having the loveliest visions.
A rude voice broke the harmony.
Like n discordant Jangle of keys.
I opened one eye 'twas the guard.
He yelled savagely: "YOU out therol
Come In out o' that 1 GOT NO SENSE?"
I upended quick, mad as hops.
My beautiful dream-set-to-muslc!
It' was shattered to nightmare bits.
I trod uator nnd freed my mind.
"How DARE you speak to mo so?
I'm no infant can't you see?
Ileen swimming all my life.
Have saved THREE drowning folks!
Can't you be courteous?" I scolded.
All the tlmo I was planning.
What wouldn't I do to him?
He should apologize, or
I looked round. lie bad gone.
Beyond the last rope he plunged.
A woman was drowning.
He must have felt her scream.
I hadn't even heard It.
Was too busy with Indignation.
Tho way he saved her I wonderful!
Gently, firmly, he silenced her.
He encouraged her to help herself.
On his broad shoulders he took her.
Then he single-handed In.
Strong, steady, secure deliverer !
First nld ho gave methodically.
She sat up. Ho went back.
Sat stolidly on his tower.
Watched the sea with hawk's eyes'.
I was dreadfully ashamed of ME.
"Say, jou're nil right," I said.
"That was stunning workl
You must have done lotr, of it.
How many this season?"
"Hun'crd on' forty-odd,"" he growled.
I felt like a piker only THREE. .
Horry I bothered ou," I faltered.
"S'all ri' guess I WUZ rough.
Rut the foolhardy ones get my goat.
An' you wuz floatin' out to sea."
"I won't again," I promised meekly.
Later I sat down and laughed.
Wo had HOTH apologized.
Isu't it odd?
We plan to reform folks.
I Sometimes they reform US.

"Oh girls 1" Josslo Eberlo clasped
her hands and gazed ecstatically heav
enward. "Did you over seo such Bhoul

her words. Clajre skipped lightly In
from tho hotel veranda and vanished
up the stairs.
Clalro has the rluht Idea," nodded
jMBle "And that's what I tell Helen
that a man will fall for clothes any
day and that sho will stay an old maid
ns long as she persists In wearing tho
duds she does. By the way, doea any
body know the new guest's nam;?
"He's on the register as 'J. . Cort
landt. of New York.' " Mario Preston
added her quota to the fund of Infor
mation. "You don't suppose he's ono
of tho Cortlandts?"
There was a mnoients silence as the
possibilities of such being the caso pre
tented thcmseles to the minds of the
four girls. Then, "le an Idea'" cried
JeMe "I move that we set our caps

"Ho'en, too?" nilnor Blair wanted to
know
"Well, we'll tell her, of course," said
Jo?sle "but she won't gle a hang"
Teisle was right. Helen didn't.
"You'ro welcome to your Mr. Cort
landt, girls 1" she delivered him up
gaily. "I didn't como up here to see
any mora men. I get enough of them
at home. "Miss Perry, kindly take this
dictation at one!' 'Miss Perry, how

nut lar rrom rnsnionaoie in Bhort-sleeved
flannel blouse, khaki skirt with huge
pockets, and low-heeled shoes, sho
swung away, canoe paddle over her
shoulder.
As for Mr. Cortlandt himself whose
arrival had set agog flvo of the six girls
spending an economically ied-for two
woek3 at tho Assembly Point House,
he wan not In the least aware of the
commotion his well-set-up person caused
as ho strolled casually down the gang
plank cf the little steamer on her after
noon call. The morning after his ar
rival he rose early, chose his canoe from
the craft drawn up on the floats, and
paddled out Into tho sunrise. tinted
water. With the knowledge of the old
timer, he was aware of a certain pool
at the mouth of an Inflowing stream
where bays swam lazily to and fro.
"By George." ho was saying to him
self, "If that old fellow Is still here. I'll
get him this year. Dohsons, crawfish,
frons, minnows I'vo got the best bass
bait there Is!"
But from now on days at Assembly
Point took on a new Interest, for Cort
landt, fisherman that ho waa, had a
theory that bass bit beat at sunrise and
sundown, and was not averse to spend
ing the hours between, which were Just
so much waste time anyway, playing

at the hotel. Helen he met but once

on the arms after a day's berrying on
tho mountain side. He .was with Jessie
at the time, who Introduced htm a Jes

smart pumps.
And It was Jessie that night who
crowed triumphantly to the other girls,
"I told him about tho hop and. ho
promised to cornel It'll be Maryland
chicken for mo at the White Horse Inn l"
But Saturday morning, s John Cort
landt paddled to his faorlte haunt, his
thoughts dwelt not on bass. Inwardly,
ho was miserable. "That's what comes
of trying to be agreeable," he lamented.
"I've let myseir in for a aance in mo
summer. Plague take all women I"
At that moment the bow of his canoe
rounded a wooded point. Jupiter I Who

His heart sank. Intuition told him It
was doubtless the old fellow he hod
been after for two years Then admi
ration for her skill In plajlng him held
him fascinated. He paddled silently
nearer to the music of the click of her
reel. Why, It was the blueberry girl, nnd
how her eyes sparkled as she netted her
catch I
"Five pounds, isn't It?" ehe demanded
his acquiescence eagerly. "I've ben
after him every day for two weeks!"
Cortlandt's disappointment wag for

thn trlrl'n mnhllA countenance. What a

her head! How ehe blended with her
surroundings of lake and woods nnd
mountains! She raa different; that
wag It, different from all the girls he
was ramiuar witn.
But one thing he must know. "I've
fed that old fellow crawfish and dob
sons, live frogs and minnows for
years," he said. "Which did you eaten
him on?"
Helen lauehed lianmlv. "None or
them," she said. "Just a wcrro."
That night J. V. Cortlandt went to
the hop an ha had promised Helen
went with him and they didn't dance
one single dance, Just sat out on the
veranda and discussed fishing tackle and
what hours bass bite and how many
stars there were.
Indoors, while dragging eaoh other
around through a foc trot, the girls
discussed whether or not they owed
Helen that feed.
"It's funny." mused Je;ste, "for him
te bo so attentive to Helen. You can
see he's always been used to quite a
different sort. However. I don't think
he's ono of the Cortlandts, nnywny."
And Jessie, who detested taking the
man's part In dancing, spoke as if she
were glad of It.
But Helen, had she heard, wouldn't

rpHC bears como at last to tho camp
of tho hunters.
This camp stood In a clearing beslda
a little creek. On three sides of It were
woods, nnd behind it was a rocky hill,
partly covered by bushes.
"Er-ugh 1 In that hill are many snug
caves," grunted Father Bear, on whoso
back Billy was riding. "Before the hunt
ers came I spent many a cold winter
cozlly snoozing there."
Billy looked the hill over carefully.
"That will be a fine place for us to
hide now," ho said. "The hunters will
never dream of looking for jou bo close
to tholr camp." ,
They climbed the hill without any ono
seeing them, finding a place where they
could look down upon the camp.
"Yum I I smell something good cook

"Yum ' Yum I" sniffed tho bears, nnd,
they licked their '-hops.
"Some ono Is frying bacon," whispered
Blliy Suro enough, as they peeked down
at the camp they saw the tat negro cook
busily getting supper at a Btovo at the
rear of the camp. And as he cooked
ho sang loudly to himself.

SWEET Marie Cookies are good because
they are made only of pure, sweet but
ter, tested eggs, a fine grade flour and sugar.
Baked to a turn, these choice ingredients
become the most appetizing cookie that
ever came from an oven!
Ice cream, especially, has a new goodness
when served with Sweet 'Maries. With
coffee, tea or cocoa, these crisp cookies are very
nearly a complete luncheon in themselves.

gwlno away I Swing low, swing low.
Sweet Chariot!"
My, but that frying baoon did hao
a hungry smell, It made the bears fairly
water at their mouths. They had been
driven from their usual feeding grounds
by the hunters and so they hadn't much
to eat of late.
Billy was sorry for the bears. It
seemed a shame that the hunters should
force them to no hunrry.
"Swing low, eweet Chariot I" sang the
fat negro cook, and then he looked up
from his work to peer anxiously toward
thn woods. "Uoiiv me. u uem nunters
doan come home mighty nulck dls flno
supper will get all cold an' spited, sure
aa my name am Itostusi" he said.
"It would be an awful waste to have
that supper spoiled," chuckled Billy, as
an Idea popped Into his head. "I think
we'd better eat it ourselves. The hunt
ers have driven tho bears away from
tho bcarB' usual supper, so it would only
servo them right to havo the beam eat
the humors' supper."
Billy whispered his plan to Father
Bear, who was the oiggest of all tht
hMrn. Father Bear nodded and walked
out from behind tho rocks, standing
where the fnt cook could see him.
Billy threw his voice so It seemed to
come from Father Bears mouth. At the
same time Father Bear moved his Jaws
as If he were talking.
"Hello, Bastus, you fat rascal, havo
you our supper ready7" That Is what
Father Bear seemed to be saying. Bas
tus Jumped around ns he heard the voice,
and his eyes nearly popped out of his
head as he saw the big bear standing
there, seeming to talk to him
"Oolllty Christmas, a bear!" yelled
BastUB
"I hope you have plenty of bacon, Has
tus, for If you haven't I'm afraid I'll
havo to slice up your own iac nauncnes
and fry 'em in grease." So Father Bear
appoared to say. Tho fat cook's yea
bulged out oven more.
"Oh, oh, oh I It's a spook bear! It
talks, an' It knows mah name, an" Its
goln' to fry me in grease! Oh, oh, I
suro am a gone colored man now."
Rastus shook until Peggy and Billy could
henr hln teeth chatter.
"I'vo brought some friends to dine
with me,. so you'd better set the table,"
Father Bear seemed to say, and at that
twelve other bears popped out from be
hind the rocks The astonished cook
took one look at them, gave a howl of
fright, and fled wildly into the woods.
That Is Just what tho bears wanted ;
in less than a minute they were swarm
ing oer the camp They didn't wait for
the table to bo set: they pitched right
Into the bacon, and nil tho other good
things and cleaned up lu a hurry
And they didn't clean them up a min
