Again Peggy wished without thinking. And again sho was punished for It. As quick as a flash sho and Billy found themselves inside tho diamond. They seemed to bo drawn right through tho sparkling surface, and then they were looking out instead of In. They could see Flltter-Plash nnd tho other fairies iloatlng about where they hid been a moment before, but now tho fairies wcro beyond a solid diamond And Peggy and Billy not only found themselves Inside the diamond, but they alto found themselves swimming. They wcro right in the tumbling sea. Abovo them flitted Maglsco, the fairy magician, who had bc?n shut up In the diamond with tho pirates for hundreds and hundreds of years. Mngisco was still trying to tell them something, but it wasn't until they remembered to use ' their car trumpets that they could henr him. for he hnd a tiny fairy voice, utile they hnd regular human cars. "Hoity-toity!" exclaimed Mngisco, using the language of long ago. "Hoity toity, nnd alnek and alas! What brought you In here? It wasn't my magic, for that lost Its power years and years ngo, when I found myself a prisoner In hero with tho pirates I was punlihlng." "It wns the magic 'wishing power given us by Folly Wisher, tho goblin," answered Peggy. "And now I wish we were safely out of here." But thU time, strnngo to say, her wish didn't work.

Not nt nil so strange," answered tho chief. "Thero nro a great many men whose credit is unquestioned, but It Is not becnuso It Is believed that they have money back of them. Very often It is regardless of whether thoy have any financial bncklng nt all. "A man gets credit because people bellevo in him. Ho might not bo "worth" anything. J. P. Morgnn onco testified under oath that he had known n good many men to como into his office, nnd ho hnd given them a check for a million dollnrs when he knew they hadn't a cent in the world. In the samo cross oxamlnntion he said thnt a man that was not trusted could not get monoy from n bank or banker on nil the bonds in Christendom; and I think that Is the rulo tho world over J that is tho fundamental basis of business. "Commercial credit Is not based primarily upon money or property. Tho first .consideration is character. Before money or property or anything elso is character. Money cannot buy It. A mnn with character with nothing behind It can usunlly get all tho credit ho needs; but it is very frequently the case thnt the man with tho property and without character cannot get It. That is tho rulo of business. "When n man goes to the bank and nsks for n loan the bank goes into what a man haB; but tho first thing thoy say is;. 'We want to sco your record.

Then Maglsco had a sudden thought that made him dance nbout In great excitement. "Unless ! Unless !" sho shouted, nnd he wns so excited he couldn't finish whnt ho wns snylng.

Read Your Character It Digbu Phillips No. 31 Tho Long Head You must distinguish now between the narrow head, which was discussed in a previous article, nnd tho long head. Tho long head, of course, Is likely to he narrower in proportion to its length thnn tho short hend. But Mr. Einstein to tho contrary, it's not so much a matter of relativity ns of actual meas urement, and the lone hend of thlq article may bo either long nnd'nnrrow or long and wide. For the moment it's only tho length tnat Interests. Long heads nearly always contain l'ccn intellects, particularly nlong in ventive, constructive and general scien tific lincj. Agnin, Jong-hcndcd persons hnvo in wcll-dcvolopcd form that peculiar typo ui lui-iiiiBiii mm rurannce (even When Intensely practical) thnt can probably best bo described by thnt suotlo diffcr- enco in meaning between our words norae ana -rewuenco. The long bends are home-lovers. Homo is to them moro than the plnco whero thoy hang their hats nnd slcop, . As a mnttcr of fact, tho long head indicates a tendency toward tno pruu tleal. let us say tho prnctlcnl ideal. It's also an indication of charitable tendencies, of sympathy nnd humane in clinations.
