Put to the Test
"Do you believe In leap year pro
posals, Mr. Barclay?"
Eileen Melchor'a brown eyes looked
mischievous. If there waa a depth of
wlstfulness underneath the mischief,
David Barclay was not in the mood to
notice It.
"Do I believe In their existence, or
their results?" His smile was
somewhat scornful. "Why, I suppose
a girl wants to ask a man to marry
her ahe sometimes does It As for the
result, I presume It's a question of
temperament as to whether fie throws
the bait or catches it"
This wasn't at all what Eileen Mel-
chor meant. Her eyes grew more
earnest "But why shouldn t a wom

edly. "It's the pioprlety you're qr?.

David Barclay waa thinking. He
began to realise the little girl be: let
him was in earnest Could she be In
love with someone of whom he did tic
know and did ahe really want his ad
vice? They were old friends, be and shs
almost enough so for him to ask ht-t
why she wanted hla opinion. On
a long time ago, he had asked her a
question that waa more Importaii'
than thla, on that she had not ai
awered aa ho wished. She was ve
young then, so young that now when
tbey met again after a long absen- e
an bis part they each fancied the o:h r

her again calmly, even be alone with

The Plain Brother
There was wlstfulness in Frank
Roberts' face as he watched the two
approaching. The tall, stalwart fel
low waa his younger brother James,
and his pretty companion was Kva
Littlefleld.
"We're going beech nutting," called
out Eva, gayly. "Don't you want to
Join lie?"
"Yes, come along. Frank, said hit

But Frank declined, forcing him

under the tree, and for a few momenta
dry sobs shook his frame. Neither of
the two who had Just left him dreamed
that there was a grief In his heart
which was growing deeper day by day,
he told himself with relief. And he
would always keep It from them.
Frank had known Eva Littlefleld
all Ills life. They had been playmates
as children and hsd always gone to
the same school. There had never
been a time that he had not worship

been such good comrades until ,Tnr.:es

"Well, It was time. The velvet

Barbara looked at the Invalid with
troubled expression. Sunday was
her god. and she was Its prophet. To
her It was her solemnest duty. She
believed that Fanny's sufferings were
the result of her disregard lor the
seventh day. Fanny looked on it sim
ply as an extra day, to be devoted to
washing her hair and reading novels.
All the weei Barbara gave herself,
mind and body, to her sister; every
night bhe played numberless haniis of
crlbbage, which scetued to quiet ;hft
invalid. For six days Fanny held su
preme sway, but before the night of
he seven.h she was powerless. Bar
bara tried to mn!-e amends for this.
Her soul would have revolted from
socnlar thoughts In church, but sipce
It Interested Fanny to know who
were there and what they wore she
hurried out early Sunday mornlr.s
and stood on the Bteps, anxiously scan
ning the congregation. She always
felt nervous and deprecating as she
did this, and wondered what people
thought She kept an explanation
ready, but nobody ever asked.
I always enjoyed life bo much
more than you did," Fanny went ou
fretfully. "It teems queer that I
should have had this, while you are as
well and strong as ever. You nevor
cared for fun. Why, don't you reme-n-
ber thnt winter when Aunt Miriam
wrote for one of us to spend a couple
of months l.i town with her and you
didn't care about it? What a glorious
time I had!"
Yes, Barbara remembered as vivid
ly as though the 15 years had been as
many days. She saw Fanny's eagor
face when the note was rt d, and
heard the half-imploring tone of her
voice as she said: "O. Barbara! I
suppose, of course, you'll go. I winh

voice answering. "No, I don't believe
I care about it. A'ou can go." Bar-

dimly accepted the fact Mat Fan :y

had given them to her, faitl fully a-d
cheerfully, loving the youngar sister
better for every pang she cost her.
Sunday was the sole thing she had
set apart for herself.
The afternoon drai;gcd slowly by.
Barbara set wii.li her Bible In ber
lap, but she did not read. There was
a troubled luo.c in her eyes. Fanny
tossed and sighed, and broke out petu
lantly now and then, wondering why
she had to go on living when sae
would so much rather be de.ul; it
would be a relief to have her out of
the way. , She had only slept two
hours last night, and probably would
not sleep ai all to-night If she only
had to eone to play cribbage with!
That wjs the one thing that could
make her sleep, but, of course, it was
no matter what l.e endured, so long
as Sunday was no. Infringed on. Oh,
dear! Barbara answeied with eis
peratlng pa Jem e, but the troubl :d
look deepened.
At 6 the r-.aid came In with tbe In
valid's tea on a tray.
"You haven't bi ought me any nap
kin, Kate." said Fanny, lu an injured
tone. She always looked on Kate'i
little sins of omission aa intentional.
When Barbara returned from bei
own supper, she found Fanny in tears.
"I can't help It," Funny sobbed. "I
know you think I am Just putting it
on, but I'm not. I'm so nervous I can't
top crying."
Barbara took the tray In silence,
and set It down in the ball; then she
went Into her own room and cluled
the dour.
When she came back, the room was
growing dark. Fanny was lying In n
dejected attitude, her eyes filling v.ith
teara at eery sound. Barbara stood
in the shadow, her face straugely set
It was the hardest moment of her life.
Then she said;
"I'll play cards with you, Fanny."
Fanny's face brightened, and then
be hesitated. Something in Barbara's
face pierced even her selfishness.
"Won't you hate It awfully, Bar
bara?" ihe asked.
Barbara's eyes grew tender. This
from Fanny! The sacrifice was not so
bard, after all.
"Not if it helps you, dear," she said
Fanny s'ghtd contentedly as she
shuttled thi cards.
"After all. it s only the Idea," Bhe
said. "There's no harm In It, If you

NOVEL 6KIRT TRIMMER.
Scissors Mounted on Gauge to Insure
Accurate Cutting.
Of the many varieties of skirt trim
mers on the market, one of the most
Ingenious Is that designed by an Illi
nois man. As In other devices of this
nature, the primary object of the trim
n:er is to do Its work accurately. ThU
Is accomplished by having the scls
sors mechanically adjusted always al
a rnlform distance above the bottom
of the skirt. In the first place there
lb- grooved base, In which the bottom
1' che skirt runs. Rising from this on
rii'.e Is an upright with a graduat--0
slot, running through it. In this
'n' a horizontal metal bar Is mount
!, bent over to hold one arm of th
iors. Tho horizontal bar may bf
cved up and down In the slot and
MJ iFted to any height required. Tbe
'rt Is then run along Just touching
e bai?e and the scissors shear off the
: -U length to which the cross bar
s been adjusted. This apparatus,
j c?.n be seen. Is both quick and ac
;i:r.ite In Its operations.

Care of Chamois Skin.
There lb noth'nn so satisfactory for
washing windows as chamois skin.
Ko -ever, niany reople avoid using It
because of tho seeming difficulty In
washing out the chamois Itself. To
prevent the leather from becoming
stifled thro'JB'a washing, first make
a tUkk lather of so ip and water, add
leg a little ammonia. Do not rub the
cliuu-ois on a board, but let it soak,
patting it between the hands' occasion
ally. If there are h-pots so soiled that
they do not coaie out easily, rub them
with the hands. Use warm water, not
hot, for rinsing, and press out all the
water possible. Take out all superflu
ous water by rolling the chamois In
a cloth for a few moments. Open out
and smooth It Into shape, drying it In
a moderately cool place, preferably
where there is a current of fresh air.
A chamois skin so treated will last for
years and be quite as soft when worn
out as when it was purchased.
For the Schoolgirl.
There is nothing that takes away
tbe schoolgirl's daintiness so quickly
as soiled cuffs. A good idea is to
make the shirtwaist of some pretty
striped percale, making the stock and
uffs of linen the same color as tha
o.ripe.

EARLY GRECIAN COINAGE.
Mark on Go!d Ingots to Guarantee
Weight ind Purity.
The Invention of coinage Is due to
the Greeks, most probably to the
bankers of HalicamasBoi and adja
cent Asia Minor Greek colonies, who
toward the end of the eighth century
B. C. began ala:np1ng the small gold
and electron Ingots which passed
through their hacda as currency with
a mark of some tort Intended to guar
antee the weight and purity of tbe
metal; such Ingots very soon assumed
a round and more regular shape,
which we find already In old silver
coins from Aeglna, nearly contempo
rary with Asia Minor "beans."
Curious to say, none of the sur
rounding peoples with whom the Asia
tic and European Gretk were In con
stant communication, political or com
mercial, took up tbe wonderful Inven
tion which at present seems to us of
such obvious necessity that we scarce
ly realise how the civilized world of
old could have got on without it.
