She heard him take a step for ward to pull her chair out from the table for her, but she sat down hast ily. before he could reach her. There was an awkward silence after the host had made the usual comments on the weather. Eliza beth felt it incumbent upon her to say something. This nervous man must not feel that he had come into a family of cold, stiff New Eng landers. "I hope," she said, forcing her self to glance at the person she ad dressed, "that you had a pleasant journey." * A slight expression of surprise crorsed the stranger's face and Eliz abeth realized that a girl in the sta tion she was supposed to occupy would hardly have spoken in this way to a man whom she had just met ah a lodger in her cousin's home. "Thanks; I had a pleasant enough journey," Butler repoined. "But I never sleep well on the cars, so I found it rather tedious." Another silence. This time Butler broke it. "Where do you live. Miss Moore? Mrs. Chapin said, T think, that you r. re visiting her, but that you do not live here." "Xo, I do not live here," she said slowly, "although I have been here Unsightly Hair Xk^jiliraefe DeMlracle. the orlfinal asnltary liquid, la truly a revelation la modern aclenee.

Why did not somebody come to her assistance and change the sub ject before another embarrassing question could be asked? Bui she need not have feared a repetition of the inquiry just then. Butler said no more except in reply to a query as to whether he toolf sugar and cream in his coffee, or desired more butter. Supper over, he pushed back his chair when Amos rose and followed him out upon the veranda, while Elizabeth went into the kitchen with Mrs. Chapin to help wash the dishes, i A Remembrance A half hour later the matron and her companion came out upon the veranda. The sun had set and there was a golden glow over everything. As at supper, when Elizabeth ap peared Butler stood up. "Where will you sit?" he asked, addressing both women. "Can X get your chairs for you?" "Oh, thank you," Mrs. Chapin re plied with a kindly smile, "but we are used to waiting on ourselves." Elizabeth dropped down upon the top step, "I will sit here, thank you," she said. Butler seated himself on the other end of the step, and sat re garding her intently, but not rudely. "Excuse me, "Miss Moore," he begged, "but I have been trying ever since I met you at supper to remem ber of whom you remind me. And I cannot remember." "Whom do I resemble. Cousin Martha?" the girl asked quickly, turning to Mrs. Chapin, who sat be hind her. "Am I like my father or my mother?" "Well," the other woman an swered slowly, hestitatingl.v, as if feeling her way, "I can't just rightly say, my dear, who you resemble." Why had Mrs. Chapin said "who" instead of "whom," thus marking the difference in her language and that of her pretended cousin? But, of course, this stranger might not no tice the slip, and, if he did, would probably think the difference in speech perfectly natural. Mrs. Chapin was a country woman; her young protege, a city girl. "Well," Elizabeth went on, deter mined to conceal her inward trepi dation. "perhaps I look like my mother. I do not remember my father. But you do. Cousin Martha. Am I like him?" "Perhaps you are. Dearie," Mrs. Chapin admitted. "I could hardly have known either of them,*' John Butler reminded Elizabeth, smilingly. Then, after a moment, he repeated the question he asked at supper. "Where did you say you came from?" "I was born in Boston." Elizabeth replied evasively. "Later I was taken to Pennsylvania." Amos Is Gruff This statement was perfectly true, she reminded her protesting con science. As a child, she had spent a whole month in Philadelphia with a relative of her mother's. "But where do you live now?" the young man persisted. To Elizabeth's relief, Amos Cha pin came to her rescue. "Away oft in Mauch Chunk," he said tersely. "What is your reason for asking?" "Why—why—l really don't know just why I did ask, Butler stam mered. Elizabeth moved uneasily. Why j need Amos speak so gruffly? It j was plain that he did not care for : the young fellow who had come ! here to teach him, an older man, ! about scientific farming. Yet. as his • reply made it improbable that she | would he annoyed again by awk ward questions as to where she lived, Elizabeth was, on the whole, glad that the farmer had made this statement and that she had not been forced to make it herself. "Perhaps," John Butler said mus ingly to her a few minutes later, "I asked where you came from to try to trace the resemblance I re | ferred to. But I know nobody in Maueh Chunk, or in that part of Pennsylvania; so whatever I saw in your face was doubtless just a chance Besemblance to someone X have met elsewhere." "Chance resemblances are curi ous." Elizabeth observed. "At—at school I knew two girls who were I much alike, yet were not related I at all." j She had almost said "at college" instead of "at school." That might have been a blunder, giving rise to wonder as to how It happened that pla.in Martha Chapin's niece was a college graduate.

Had Knitting Needles Made of Chop Sticks Honolulu, Hawaii.—Chop sticks were meant to feed the men of the Oriental races, but a little Chinese girl, somewhat Americanized, a pub j lie school attendant, who has heard I all about the little Belgian sufferers I and the need to give American sol | diers everything they should have while in France, has decided that chop sticks make perfectly good knitting needles. The youngster wanted to buy a Thrift Stamp, but had no money. Then she decided to knit something, l.ut had no knitting needles. So she comrr)andeered a pair of chop sticks from her mother's kitchen and be gan to knit with colored string. Her first effort was hardly a strategic success, but when she had finished it she took it to Thrift Stamp head quarters, where a sympathfzing woman purchased it for a quarter. With the quarter the little Chinese maid purchased her first Thrift Stamp. Now she is knitting with real wool and with real needles. — I Messgae of Love From Japan Given Americans Falrhnven, Mass., July 5.
