Dr Ross Lowell's professional duties '
are so exacting that he is obliged to
somewhat neglect Cecile. his vivacious
girl-wife. She suffers innumerable dis
appointments in broken engagements
and grows somewhat dissatisfied with '
her lot. Through Maude Leigh, her i
chum, she meets Richard Burnett, an j
actor and matinee idol, and is flattered
by his marked interest in her. Maude
casts Cectle for a leading part in an

Burnett, infatuated with Ceciel. agrees

WAGNER'S "PARSIFAL' *
Its Cold Reception at First Moved
Hans Sachs to Fury
When Wagner's "Parsifai" was'
first performed in Baireuth. the critic
Hans Sachs was almost the only one
of all the writing fraternity to welcome
it as a great work of genius. To the
ears of the others its rude realism
sounded unmusical. They wanted
i melody like that Verdi was turning out
in Italy. Bizet in Paris and a few
minor composers in their own Berlin.
But Sa'hs was a man of broader
mold. He heard the great music of
"Parsifal" with unprejudiced ears and
' recognized the genius of the man. He
shouted it abroad in his writings and
became fur ius at a, world that woul i ,
not. perhaps could not, find pleasure
in the dramati- voices of the or. hestra,
it? vivid emotionalism and marvelous
appeal to the aesthetical nature that is
in every man and woman. He knew
that the Germans were merelv refusing
to listen, save for melody, and finally
he told them that even in the melodic i
field Webner was the greatest of them
all.
Sachs has written eloquently of Wag
*ner's melody, beside which the meiody
of the in pallid, anaemic, in
significant. Only now and then, he
said, were the Italian melodists other
than a.—ific:al. Wagner's melody was
the spontaneous song of a musical
heart. The "Good Friday Spell" was
the most exquisite song of praise e\er i
written by any man. no less a song
because it was wordless, sung only
by the vio::n and woodwinds. —Detroit
Free Press.
Portmanteau Names
The reports in the American press of j
the movements of troops on the Mexi
can border are bringing to light some
curious "'portmanteau words" as names
of towns. For example, there is Tex
arkana. a town in Arkansas near the'
Texas line. Tex:co is a town in New '
Mexico near Texas, and Texhoma. a I
town :n Texas near Oklahoma. Other;
stfange looking blends of state names
in the west are Calexico. Calada. Uva-i:
da. Kanorado and Wyuta.—Westmin

Now and then some worthy individual with

We cannot buy quality in merchandise for
less than the price thereof, no one else can either.
We cannot sell merchandise which will render
true service for less than such merchandise costs and stay

A CONVENTIONAL CASE
And So the Eeager Suitor Decides Not
to Ba Eccentric
A proposal was imminent, and they
, both knew it. He talked politics for
awhile, but that topic was soon ex
hausted. Finally he reached for her
1 hand.
; " Dearest!''
She said nothing.
"You know that I love yon."
More silence.
"I want you to be my little wife."
Her silence must have given him a
slight chill. He switched off to prac
;; tical talk.
!i "I get $25 a week, Mabel, and I feel
sure that you think well of me. How
about it!"'
The girl looked at him steadfastly,
j "George," said she, "I like you well!
enough, but I'm going to talk to you
frankly. listen. You want me to
marry you on $25 a week. I have no
interest in the home. 1 play bridge for
money. I smoke cigarettes. I require
, expensive clothes and continual excite
ment. I can't cook. ] won't learn. I
know very little that would bejiseful.
S'ow, under these conditions do you
still want met"
I The young man smiied indulgently.
;j "Certainly I want you," he "an
swered. "Why should I have a wife
; any different from so many other men's
wives!''—Philadelphia Record.
Boosevelt as a Woodchopper
: When he owned a ranch in the west
. Theodore Roosevelt, as he says in his
I autobiography, •• could chop fairly well
for an amateur," but he admits that
I he could not do one-third of the work
, that his men did.
| "One day," he writes, "when we
were cutting down the eottonwood
; trees to begin our building operations,
j I heard some one ask Dow what the to
j tal cut had been, and Dow, not realizing'
that I was within hearing, answered.
I'Well, Bill cut down fifty-three, I cut
forty-nine, and the boss, he beavered
j down seventeen.' Those who have seen
j the stump of a tree that has been
| gnawed down by a beaver." adds Mr.
I Roosevelt, "will understand the exact
force of the comparison.'
Your Castle of Thought
,Your Castle of Thought is the most
! sacred possession you have.
It is your real estate, vour house of
p raver.
You are the agent. Shall you let in
disorderly tenants?
i Shall you harbor Doubt, a sicklvl
j tenant, to iufect well meaning tenants'?
| Doubt is about the worst tenant vou i
i can admit. Turn him out.
Doubting some one, any one, never:
gets you
If the one you doubt is unworthy,
then that is his problem, not yours.
■ Give him this to read and let him come
and take treatment.
Come and get your thought changed,'
and all things will be made new.—New i

By the Bules of the Game
Little Mary Lou was eager to get'
back to her new doll and didn't know i
there was going to be aav dessert. She
slipped quietly from her'chair, hoping*
she would not be observed.
Out in the ball she met the cook with 1
the ice cream, and as quietly as she
had left it she slipped back to her ac
customed place at the table.
"Mary Lou," said her mother re
provingly, "I thought you had finished
rour dinner. It isn't polite to come
back."
