Deny it, and you deny that there is any jealousy in your makeup, proclaim ing at the same time that you have a heart that is encrusted In snow and hung with Icicles. And you deceive no one, for every one knows that the little grreen-eyed god has at some time occupied a shrine in every human heart.

Pressing: her hot oheek against the chill pane of glass, she gazed down at the street with its ragged piles of coiled snow. An old woman with a shawl over her bent head and a large basket on her arm was hurrying by. The wind whipped out her thin skirt, showing her begrudged petticoat and her slattern shoes. Helen watched her out of sight, and then turned back to the letter. A few moments before she had opened it with the pleasant ex pectancy of her mother's usual cheerful, home-newsy letter. But the news this had brought had left her crushed, bewildered. That her father's practice was not ■what it had been and that he was not very strong Helen knew. But that things should be so bad—it came as a staggering shock. She must either ask Warren for money to help them—or the home must be mortgaged. That was the appalling alternative this letter put before her. Torn with conflicting impulses Helen walked distractedly from one window to the other. She must help them —she MUST! Yet how could she put this extra burden upon WarS'en? All winter he had been complaining that business was bad. Hosv could she go to him with ' thi»? \gain she took up the letter. Carterstown, Mo., Monday, Feb. 23, Dear Helen —r cannot tell you how hard it is for me to write this letter. But when I see that this worry is killing your father 1 feel that now you ought to know. For the last few months he has been far from well, and his hearing is much worse. This deafness, of course, interferes with his prac tice, and has lost him many pa tients. I wrote you of the new doe tor who has opened up an office here. : He has a car, and keeps a young woman attendant in his office. All of the new people are going to him, and ■ome of your father's old patients. Helen, things have become so, had that unless you can help us a; little now we will have to mortgage the home. A.nd I'm afraid of the cf- I feet that will have on your father. | Tou remember the lot in North Main street? Well, we mortgaged j that a year ago last Fall. I did not ■ tell you then, for r thought things would be better, and 1 did not want to worry you needlessly. I know what a shock this will be. and how you will dread to ask help of Warren. I know how you shrink from I asking him for money, and I never thought you would ever have to ask Xor a cent for us. Of course, everything we have will some day be yours, and if you talk it over with Warren he may be willing to take a small .mortgage on the house. We would much rather feel that it was with you than with Strang- 1 crs. Tet Warren may not be willing to j do this, for I have heard him say that he did not believe in any kind of busi ness dealings with relatives. He might rather loan your father a smaller sum outright. Two hundred dollars, r think, would be enough to carry us I through the rest of the winter and ! tiprlng. When the warm weather comes | your father can get around better. ' end then we will make something from : the garden and chickens. This yearl I'll put up a lot of jelly and preserves. J sold all I made last summer and had orders for more. I cannot bear to think that we shall ever become a real burden on you and Warren. It would kill your father. But if we could get along without tak ing the mortgage, if you could help us a little through this winter, I think then we can help ourselves. Cannot write more now, for he has just come In with one of his sick headaches. He has them so often, they seem to be growing worse all the time. I think that is what affects his hearing. I want him to go to the new ( For Children Lax Links Are Safe and Sure Don't let the little ones suffer from Constipation, as serious ills are apt to result.

They love without restraint, they are just as controlled In the fear, hatred and resentment of jealousy. The man and woman who are jealous, and show it, defeat their own happi ness, but the objects of their adora tion and suspicion have the satisfac tion of knowing it Is not a lovo that has bloomed before. A young girl writes me that sho has every assurance of her sweet heart's love, but— "There iB a girl that cares a lot for him and she puts herself on him every time she sees him, and if wo are at a party she hangs around him so that I never can have a pleasant conversation with him. He says he doesn't care for her, but I hear he is at her house « hen not at mine." Another girl tells a story of jeal ousy as follows: "He admits he writes to her, but says he never goes to see her. I scold him about it all the time. He calls on mo every night in the week but one. and I am very suspicious. Do you think he goes to see her the night he is not with me?" Another girl, with as convincing proof of her sweetheart's lo've, wants j doctor to be examined—but you know lyour father. Now Helen, if you feel you cannot | ask Warren, don't hesitate to write land tell me so frankly. I do not want |to ask you to do anything that will | be too hard, or that will make things | strained between you and him. But j I thought now I ought to let you 1 know. With love, as ever, ' TT , MOTHER. Helen opened a drawer in the desk 'and took out her check book. Forty | three dollars and eighty cents! That j Has all she had of her own! I With bitter resentment she thought of the twenty-five she had loaned Airs. Thurston. For the moment she felt like calling her up and demand ing the money. It had been over a month, and she had not heard a word , from her. She would wait until the I first—not a day longer. If Mrs. I I hurston did not return the money ; by then she would ask her for it. A Slight Relief j Tearing out a check, Helen now i filled It out to her mother for S4O. jShe would send this by special de livery. Hurriedly she wrote the i letter. IDear Mother: I have only $43 in the bank and am sending you a check for .$4 0. This will help out until I have time to think what I can do. Your letter just came and I am still bewildered. I did not dream things were so bad. ou should have let me know sooner. 1 just loaned a Mrs. Thurston s2s— makes me wild to think of It. I am sure she will pay it back, but I may have to wait—and I could have sent it to you now. I feel very guilty when 1 think of the money I've spent on clothes lately. You see Warren makes me an allow ance of |SO a month for myself— that is for my clothes, carfare, etc. Of course, everything for the house he pays for, and he's often very gen erous about setting me an expensive gown or coat. While we were in Paris he gave me a lot of extra money for clothes. But SSO is all I have reg ularly. The worst of it is that in the last few months he's complained of busi ness being very bad and we've been trying to cut down our household ex penses. So you see how I dread to ask him for anything just now. Mother, if I send you twenty-five dollars—half of my allowance each month—do you think you could manage on that until Warren's busi ness is better? If you were sure of that much every month, besides what lather may make, don't you think you could get along. And Warren need not know. 1 have plenty of clothes now. I got so many in Paris last year that I will need almost nothing this Spring. Oh. I'd much rather do this than ask Warren for money now. He might be very willing to give It to me; he might even send you so much a month himself; but I don't know— and I'm afraid to ask him. You know, in some ways he's most generous; yet in other ways he is \ery, very hard. I suppose I've always been and al ways will be afraid of him, but I can't help that. And now rhat things have been going very smoothly for the past year I can't tell you how I shrink from doing anything that njight make con ditions strained. So I'll try first every possible way of helping you without asking him. If I could only make some money myself! Perhaps there's some way I can. At least, you can be sure of twenty-five dollars a month until I can find some way of sending you more. I'll write again this week Lovingly, HELEN. It was with a slight feeling of re lief that Helen mailed this letter. At least the forty dollars would help some. It would give her time to think. A Rig Shock Somehow she had never thought of her, father as not being fairly pros perous. The possibility of his ever needing Warren's help had never oc curred to her. That there were many men who did help their wives' families, she knew, but she had never dreamed that Warren would have to help hers. She felt that he had a sort of con tempt for dependent people. His own family were all well off, which would make it harder for him to understand and sympathize. His creed always was that every one should work and save while young, so there would be no need for dependency In old age. But Helen knew that her father HAD worked; his years as a village physician had been full of hardships and self-sacrifices. But he had al ways been over-generous, giving much of his services free, and now at sixty-two, he had almost nothing to show for his life's work. Twenty-five dollars a month! Would that be enough to help them? Must she force down her pride and show this letter to Warren? What would he do? What would be his attitude? What if he should say that he had all the expenses now that he could nieet— that he could do nothing? If he said "that, she knew that for months things would be strained be tween them. There would always be the feeling that she had asked him to help her father—and he had re fused. No; .she COULD not ask him She was AFRAID to ask him She must manage to help them in some other , way. Ito know how she can find out what I he does the two evenings a week he is not with her. "It would break my heart," she writes, "to find he calls on another girl." Very Young The writers of these letters are very, very young. If they were older they would know that no man's lovo Is held by nagging; they would have learned that jealousy is a flattery a lover soon resents. Pleased at first because of its display, since it shows the girl loves him, he grows angry when it exhibits itself in nagging, suspicion and dis trust. and if he is as wise as his fathers he transfers his heart to a harbor of I love that is more peaceful. It is third nature to be jealous, but It Is possible to get such control of this very human weakness that it takes to itself all the strength of in difference. The lover Is longest the lover whoh is kept guessing; he Is truest who has the girl to win, and every mark of jealousy is proof that ,'she is already won and regards him jas such a prize she loses all pride lin her desire to keep him. Green eyes, girls, are never the eyes that keep a lover. cWCITW ON STYLISH LINES Japanese Suggestions in Sleeves and the General Loose Effect 8190 Fancy Cutaway Coat, 34 to 42 bust.

A BUSY BOX OFFICE There were many calls for tickets at the box office of the Majestic Theater I this morning for the plays that will be given by Helen Grayce and her company all of next week. Unusual in terest has been aroused over the ap pearance of the popular star from the fact that she is giving local the atergoers the only opportunity they have had In several years of seeing late Broadway successes artistically presented at sensible prices. The de mand for seats for Tuesday evening was particularly brisk when Miss Grayce and Earl Ritchie will give an exhibition of the various steps as danced in the tango at society balls and affairs. "The Lion and the Mouse," the best of all the Chas. Klein plays, Is the offering for Monday afternoon and evening.—Advertisement. LAI HON KIM Not the least of the striking novelties of this week's bill at the Orpheum Is the presence of Prince L«1 Mon Kim, • the splendid baritone singer, who is not only the first Chinese trlller ever seen on a local stage, but who is the only Chinese male singer appearing before the amusement public. Certainly an act of this caliber should appeal and interest just as it is at tne Locust street playhouse. Of course, that title part must be taken for granted, but there la no denying the fact that the artist is Chinese, and also that his ennunclatlon Is perfect and even sur passes that or many native Amerfara singers. The singer appears in neatf I native attire and his songs are fortu i nately not the songs peculiar to his native land. To the contrary they are i; American, all of them ballads except a rag and that he has translated into i Chinese. So If you want to try out your 11 ability at learning Chinese, go hear Prince Mon Kim singing "Everybody's - Doing It" In his native tongue. The management will offer a liberal prize to anybody who can learn it from at tending a week's performances. Seri ously, however, he sings "I Hear You ! Calling Me," "I Miss You Most of All" and several others In exquisite voice. Prince Lai Mon Kim offers one of the • sterling attractions grouped about the week's roaring comedy called "Wrong From the Start."—Advertisement.
