She glanced at the ' ckk:k—it wanted a few minutes to $— then rose from her seat and walking to the window, pulled back the faded red curtains. "A clear sky—there will be a splendid light soon for Phil." she exclaimed. She turned and made her way back to the fireplace. An envelope on the mantelpiece caught her eye. It was an old one. and had been there for some, weeks, but she took It down once again, and drew a card-out—a mere ordinary card, irlth the wbrds. "Madge, from Dick," written upon .it. She gazed at It reflectively; then replaced 'it with a little high. "Ah. Dick!" she murmured, "if only things had gone a little better with

The chimes of a clock striking the hour.caught her ear. and she made hurried preparations for her departure. On her way down she tapped at a door, and opened it half an Inch. "Many happy returns of 'the day. Phil, dear!" she called out. "It's a lovely morning. Good-by!" She ran down the stairs' lightly. In the hall the was met by an elderly looking man in a velveteen coat. She nodded brightly to him, and he opened

the door for her.

“Yes. We must do something to- . night in honor of It, and yon must help us. Mr. Lintcll! Good-by—I shall be late for my 1)118!" About an hour later Phil Halstan emerged from his room. Jle was a tall, well-built young'fellow. with a somewhat heavy. Indolent looking face. Ho ate a leisurely breakfast, then, lighting a cigarette, dropped Into an art.chair by the fire and let his eyes travel slo' ly round the dull room. A look of disgust crept to his face. •‘Ugh!" be exclaimed. “How horribly mean and sordid It all looks! Shall I ever get out.of It!" Presently he rose. and. going to a -corner by the window, drew forward an easel. He eat, before it and gated, at the blank canvas. Then he felt for his box of brushes and fingered them meditatively. Finally he laid them down and looked ont of the window.

The idiotic sentences kept running through his head. He. Phil Halstan. a mcreJoafer! The thing was absurd; Madge herself would be the first to say so. He walked for tome time, and made effort to think of something else, esontly he dropped into cheap ceairant to have lunch. He sat down to a table; next to him two men were

talking rather excitedly.

‘I don't care who It Is!" one was declaring emphatically. "The chap who loafs while a woman works-for '1m Is a 'ound. and deserve* to be kicked! Why, Fd sooner sweep the roadway!" Phil, with a red face, rose and hur-

riedly left the place.

He bad been thinking it good deal of Phil lately—this')boy who got up late, sat dreaming half the day, and loafed the other, who had never earned a penny In his life, kept In Idleness by a’devoted slater wh$, as typist in a solicitor's office, worked hard from morn to night, believing in him heart and eouL He glanced up sharply at Phil. \ "Might I see your portfolio?” he Vsold. “I used to know something about

lary manner than usual. If you do. you only have to know the milliner's oldrot secret, and the thing Is done. Did yon ever notice the softest drapery of pure white bung about a mirror? That is the trick. After your mirror of faultless glass Is thoroughly polished, frame it in pure white gauze, with the material gathered in the centre at Ibc top and falling wavellke on either side. Then notice the effect. The true -tints of ho complexion will be there—a little emphasized. The expression of the countenance, the light of .the eye. the color of'the hair will be accurately reflected, all softened and’ mgde more harmonious than your mirror showed them before the gauze was used. You may believe that that subtle bit of white material makot the glass tell nearer the truth (ban it did. —New York Herald.

It is strange, say* Harper^ Weekly, that in a country wjierc the ties of family are so strong and where so much attention is given to the preservation of the family name, women should be so looked down upon as they are In China. The reason for this, however, is to be found In the system of ancestral worship and the patriarchal gathering together of families. From the time of her bctbrotbal a Chinese girl belong- to the family of her prospective husband, and often when her own family |s poor or feels unable to afford keeping her until she reaches a marriagable age she Is sent even while a mere child to her husband's family to be raised by them.
