3&?Q(Y)en rg.lnrene-ST^S, Bj ELLA WHEELER WILCOX WORTH WHILE It Is easy enough to be pleasant When life flows by like a song. But the man worth while Is the one who will smile When everything goes "dead wrong." For tho test of the heart is trouble, And It always comes with the years, And the smile that is worth the praise of earth Is the smile that shines through tears. It is easy enough to be prudent When nothing tempts you to stray, When, without or within, no voice of sin Js luring your soul away. But it's only a negative virtue. Until it is tried by fire. And the life that is worth the honor of earth Is the one that resists desire! By the cynic, the sad, the fallen, Who had no strength for the strife, The world's highway is cumbered to-day— They make up the items of life. But the virtue that conquers passion And the sorrow that hides in a smile — lit is these that are worth the homage of earth, For we find them but once in i while! The Telegraph reprints this Jpoem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox to-day because of the following interesting Incident: King George of England, who takes a deep interest in everything that makes for the general welfare of his people, recently visited the headquarters of the Young Men's Christian Association in Tottenham Court road. He was accompanied by the Queen and Prince Albert. The King wanted to see the vast es tablishment in ordinary working routine, and the visit of the royal party was a surprise to the Y. M. C. A. officials. The first thing that caught the Their Married Life By MABEL HERBERT URNER HELEN HAS AX INTIMATE GLIMPSE INTO THE LIFE OF A WOMAN SHE HAS NEVER MET. "What a. dear little bedroom!" en thused Helen, glancing around the dainty blue and white room. "And look," Evelyn opened the door of a large closet fitted up as a kichen ette. "You see she's left everything." "It's good china, too," examining the mark on the bottom of a teacup. "Wait till you see these," taking eoine silver from a box on the shelf. "Look at that old Monogram l'm eure they're family pieces. Feel the Weight to that spoon!" "I should think she'd have put those away," exclaimed Helen. , "She didn't put anything tyway. She just walked out and left the apartment as you see It. The only things she took were her clothes." "And you didn't see her at all?" "No, only the agents. She'd left the city hurriedly, and wrote them to sublet it. Wasn't I fortunate to get it?" "You certainly were," agreed Helen. "Two rooms and bath, furnished, In this neighborhood, for s7o—that's aw fully cheap!" "That's just the rent of the apart ment; she's not charging for the furni ture. But I can't help feeling there's something queer about her leaving so suddenly. Everything showed she hadn't intended to leave. Why, there were even eggs and grapefruit in there." '•How long had she been gone when you rented It?" "Just three days. There were still some faded roses on her desk. I can't get away from the feeling that there's a tragedy under it all." "It does seem curious," admitted Helen. "I never heard of any one rent ing an apartment and leaving every thing In it. Is this her picture?" tak ing up a silver frame from the dress ' lng table. "I think it must be, for there's one like It on the piano." I The photograph on the piano had / been taken at the same time, for the gown was the same, only the pose was different. It was a charming pic ture of an attractive young woman of about twenty-five. "Is all this music hers?" Helen asked as she put back the picture. ("It's all here—just the way she left tShe must have studied In Berlin," ening one of the books in which LS written: "Irene I». Matthews, 118 >enigstrasse, Berlin." "And the books?" turning to the bookcase. "Are these hers, too?" "Yes, and there are some unusual things on that lower shelf." There were a few good editions and an expensive set of Browning Inscrib ed: "To I. L. M. from J. K. G." Sev ' eral of the other books were from "J. K. G." A Gall While they were looking through these the phone rang. "Hello! Who?" called Evelyn. "Oh, (ay I'll see her down there. It's Mrs. p'Nelll," turning to Helen, "the wo ,*nan I'm trying to get work for. She'll (Btay for ever If I ask her up. I'll not be a moment." . Helen was now absorbed in the books. In a copy of Keats was writ ten, "J. K. Grlswold, Berlin; June. '1912." Out of this fell a couple of kodak pictures taken on board & (teamer. There was a girl standing by the rail, her features the same as [those in the picture on the piano. ■The other print was of a man, tall, Rood-looking, in a shaggy steamer East. " Already Helen's vivid Imagination *vas piecing together a romance. They /had met in Germany while she was 'studying music. They had returned on tho same steamer. Then, as she examined closely the man in tho kodak picture, she turned to a larger photograph on the mantel. Yes, they were the same. It was a ttrong face, but the facfe of a man of the world. She was still studying these when Ihe phone rang. It was the one on tho desk, not the house phone by the i "Hello," a man's voice, deep and Vibrant. "I want 8834 plaza." Helen glanced at the number on tjie phone. "Yes, this is 8834 Plaza." i "I would like to speak to Miss jw'atthews." j „Ilss Matthews :s not here. She's left town, I bellevb." "Left town?" echoed the deep voice. "When will she be back?" "I really don't know anything about It," explained Helen. "A friend of (nine, Miss Ford, has rented this apart tnent." "Rented the apartment! I don't un lerst&nd. You say some one has rant >d Mies Matthew's apartment?" "Yea; she'll be back In moment >Va4t, here she Is now!" \ With her hand over tha phone, ?e!en whispered to Kvelyn. \ "Some one's calling up Miss Mat hews. You epeak to him." .Evelyn explains! briefly that alia MONDAY EVENING, King's eye as he entered the secre tary's room was the opening verse of Ella Wheeler Wilcox's famous poem. The first four lines were taken as a motto, and, neatly framed, were hung on the wall. King George read them with great interest and there was a smile on his face. Turning to his son, he said: "It reminds me of rule No. 1 in the navy." "What's that?" asked Prince Albert. "Always keep your hair on," replied the King. This is British vernacular. It means about the same as the Yankee expression: "Don't lose your head," or "Keep cool." I knew nothing of Miss Matthews, that I she had taken the apartment from an agent only two days before. "No, I don't know her address," she assured him, "I don't think they know here, for they're forwarding the mail to her bank. * * * Why, yes, if you wish. But there's really nothing more that I can tell you." "He's not coming here?" demanded Helen tensely. "Yes, but only for a moment—he says he must see me. What do you suppose it means?" "Did he give his name?" "No, but he'll be here in half an hour. Perhaps I shouldn't have let him come." The Solution "That's the man!" Helen pointed excitedly to the picture on the man tel. "I'm sure it is! His name is J. K. Griswoid! They've had some quar rel—and she's gone away. Here," turning to the volume of Keats, "Here's some pictures taken on a steamer. Oh, I've pieced together the whole story!" Evelyn was impressed. It did seem plausible, though it sounded like a story from a popular magazine. They spent the next half hour conjecturing the various possible phases of tne ro mance. When the bell rang, Helen in a flutter of excitement and expectancy settled herself in the farthest corner of the couch, while Evelyn opened the door. It was the same man! He had been traveling—had just gotten back from a trip. Helen's mind decided this in a flash. Perhaps it was the long coat and soft hat that gave the impression of traveling. Before he spoke he looked search ingly around the room and then back to Evelyn. "I'm sorry to intrude, but if there is anything at all that you can tell me about Miss Matthews—l shall ap preciate It." "I told you over the phone that I know nothing absolutely." "Yes, I know you did," he was standing by the table: Evelyn had not asked him to sit down. "And it may seem strange that I insisted on coming—but I felt that I must come. You can at least give me the name of the agents ?" "Oh, yes, I think I have their card." A Request While Evelyn searched for the card, he looked hungrily around, and Helen say that his gloved hand, which rest ed on the table, was- clinched. He put the card in his wallet, asked how long Evelyn had boen here, for how long she had sublet the apart ment, and what were the conditions of her lease. The intense earnestness with which he aaked these questions robbed them of any shade of imperti nence. "There ls just one more thing I should like to ask. If Miss Matthews should return and take another apart ment, would you have any objections to her removing some of her personal things—her books and music?" "Not at all," answered Evelyn quickly. "I should be glad to have more room. There is really no place to put my books and trinklets." He thanked her courteously, and handed her a card with an earnest: "In case you should hear anything of MISB Matthews or should learn of her address, 1 shall be much indebted to you if you will let me know." The door closed after him. Evelyn glanced at the card. J. Kent Griswold, Attorney-at-Law, 320 Broad Street. "Oh, I know—l know!" breathed Helen triumphantly. "And he CARES! Can't you see how MUCH he cares? Why did she leave? What did they quarrel about?" "Walt, I think I can tell you," Eve lyn took to the telephone book and turned through it quickly. "I thought so! 'J. K. Griswold, Lawyer, 320 Broad street: Residence, 946 Riverside Drive.' That's the reason!" Helen looked puzzled. "Why. he's married. Don't you see? —Residence, 94G Riverside Drive?" "But he could have a residence without being married, couldn't he?" "He could—but he hasn't. You sensed the other and I sensed this. There's a Mrs. Griswold at 946 River side Drive. Wait, I'll prove it." "No —no," objected Helen. "What are you going to do?" "Nothing, except to prove that there's a Mrs. J. K. Griswold." Then into the phone: "Hello, Riverside 3742." Helen tried to protest, but Evelyn waved her back. "Hellb! Is Mrs. Griswold InT No, you misunderstood me, I said MR. Griswold. He Isn't in? No, I don't care to speak to Mrs. Griswold—l'll call again." She hung up the receiver and turn ed to Helen with a triumphant: "There, that's your romunce—and it may be a very sordid one!"

As we have explained previously th« blood vessels that feed the hair roots provide all that is required for hair growth; oil is obtained from tU« oil glands, and a normal, healthy scalp need* no tonic or other applications save those necessary for cleanliness. But an abso lutely normal, healthy scalp Is rare, so rare that It need hardly be taken into con •lderation In this connection. Many people have an over-dry scalp; In come cases the oil glands secrete hardly at all, and it is necessary that the scalp should have some application to make up for this deficiency. The oils most com monly used for a dry scalp are vaseline and preparations containing castor oil. Remember that a hair tonic has no vlrtua put on the hair; it should be applied to the scalp. In the case of oily preparar tlons It ls particularly necessary that the ■calp alone should be treated for oil on the hair is not pleasant, while the scalp needs It. A medicine dropper provides an economical and convenient method of ap plying hair tonics. An oily scalp ls often Improved by tha application of a tonlo that will act as an astringent, reducinr the supply of the oil glands and mitigating the effect of too much oil on the scalp. Most tonics de signed for this trouble have a good pro portion of alcohol. For dandruff there are many specifics. While cleanliness Is the first requisite In removing this trouble, It should be re membered that dandruff Is really a dis ease, a form of bacteria, and Is often very stubborn of cure. This condition can often be helped by some scalp appli cation. A torpid scalp that Is pushing scanty, weak hair needs invigorating. Tonics for this purpose contain capsicum, alcohol and catharldes, and certain preparations of petroleum have proved most beneficial In assisting hair growth. Camphor, an other favorite ingredient in a stimulating tonic, will sometimes tend to making th« hair curly on account of its resinous qual ities. Choose the tonle that your hair need* •nd use It with the scalp massage move ments given In an earlier portion of this l*Mon, and the benefit will be twofold. fiAPRISBUHG TELEGRAPH Making of Chas. M. Stieff Pianos Controlled by Famous Baltimore Family For Almost a Quarter-Century From Modest Beginning in "Monumental City" Firm Has Grown to Maintenance of Representa tion in Twenty-three Leading American Cities—Orchestral Grand and Stieff Player- Piano Find Universal Favor—Big Factory to Meet Demand. Baltimore, Md., March 19.—From a modest beginning almost three-quar ters of a century ago, the well-known firm of Chas. M. Stieff, of this city, has grown to the stage of the maintenance of representation in twenty-three of the leading cities of the East, Middle West and South and in sixteen of these cities branch stores are operated ajid controlled directly by the home office in this city. The business at present Is owned and controlled by Frederick P. Stleff, the son of the late Charles M. Stleff, founder of the house, who has with him In business his two sons, George Waters Stleff and Frederick Philip Stleff, Jr. Other positions of Importance are held by the following: Charles J. Grose, as factory superintendent; S. P. Walker, as general manager, and J. G. Schnepfe, as general auditor. The firm also owns and controls the Shaw piano, formerly made in Erie, Pa., and moved to Baltimore, by the present owner in 1901, as well as .the Bennett-Bretz piano, which was manufactured In Harrisburg, Pa., until bought out by the present makers. The big Stieff factory in Baltimore is located on the block bounded by East Lafayette avenue and Hope and Lanvale streets. The garage, dry kilns, stable .electric plant and repair annex are connected through an under ground passage, and the lumber yards are located In the adjoining block. The firm carries one of the largest supplies of lumber In the city, having nearly always between 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 feet of lumber on hand. The lumber is kept on hand for such a period of time, until it is thoroughly well-seasoned and dried, through a special hot air process. When the lumber is ready for use it has been so well treated and seasoned that there is practically no chance for contraction or expansion. This greatly aids In the durability and strength of the Instrument. The factory consists of five floors, basement and tower, comprising more than 110,000 square feet of manufacturing floor space. The strictest system is adhered to throughout the plant, every department ha\ing its foreman. There is a superintendent over the entire plant. The electricity in use throughout the factories is generated on the place. The plant is equipped with its own up-to-date fire service. In three minutes' time, 3 one-and-one-eighth inch nozzle streams of water can be employed, with a capacity of seven hundred and fifty gallons per minute, drawn from a tank of twenty-flve thousand gal lons on the roof and from an underground reservoir of one hundred and thirty thousand gallons. This is entirely independent of the city lire department, several houses of which are located at a very short distance from the plant. All floors, ceilings and doors are asbestos lined. The doors separating the va rious sections of the plant are double doors, asbestos lined and metal cased Two principles which the firm of Charles M. Stieft endeavors to employ are the individuality and up-to-dateness of their instruments. The former is se cured, to a very large extent, by the length of time in which the majority of workmen In the plant have remained with the firm.
