He took a great fancy to Miss Peckham the very day he came. I'm so glad! Miss Peckham is one of the finest women at the Brownstone, and it certainly is o shame that she never had a beau before.” “Never had a beau!” “Never!” repeated Mrs, Bennett, impressively. “She admitted it to me in confidence one day. I intend to help her along all I can, and see that she lands Mr, Weed, for she de- serves a good husband.” “I should say she does!™ agreed one of the other women. “Let's all put in a good word for her, and then if she doesn't land him it won't be our fault.” That evening ater dinner Mrs. sitting on the front porch of the Brownstone alone when young Weed made his appearance. “Good evening, Mr. Weed,” chirp ed the gopher eyed Mrs. Bennett. “How do you like the Brown- stone?” “Very much indeed, Mrs. :Bennett. The food i8 good and I find the peo ple pleasant.” “I'm so glad to hear you say so, Mr, Weed. [I've lived here four years, and I am very fond of all the people here, especially the young ladies. We have such lovely young ladies here, don't you think so?" “Yes, yes, indeed,” young Weed re- plied nervously. A bachelor can never be too wary, “I think Miss Peckham is an espe- claily fine girl,” Mrs, Bennet went on. “She is perfectly splendid and she makes the best things in a chafing dish you ever tasted.” Mrs. Bennett glanced out of the cor- ner of her alert brown eyes to see the effect her speech was having upon young \Weed. He was plainly moved, for he fingered his cane nervously and hurried down the steps, murmu¥ing something about an engagement, The rcxt morning Mrs, Holmes met young \vced in the hall on his way to bre: >, fine,” x,rlod young Weed, standing luh(u_\ aside for Mrs. liolman to pass, but that designing person moved not at all, “Too bad this isn't a holiday. It would be such a lovely morning to play golf. You know, Miss Peckham is an expert golier, and you should challenge her to a game some fino morning.” “Yes?" spoke young Weed, Inquir- ingly, reddening a trifle. “I am not much of a golfer mysell.” “Then you ctould have Miss Peck- ham take you in hand and teach you," insisted Mrs, Holman. “I'm sure she would love to. She’is 8o accommodat: ing! And she has such a perfect dis- position! Really, Mr. Weed you should know her better.” Young Weed sueceeded in driving Mrs. Holman before him to the break- fast room, where she beamed at him from her table across the room all | through the meal. As young Weed stopped at the mail box in the hall Mrs. Adams sailed down the front stairs, elbows waving. “Looking for a love letter, Mr, Weed?" she bantered gajly. “Not this morning, Mrs, Adams. No such good luck for me. Haven't got & girl, you know.” He smiled at her unsuspiciously, “Well, now, that's too bad, Mr. Weed. A man with your good looks should not have any trouble finding a girl. If you want any help, just let we know. I know of one not very far away. She is a dear, and I'm sure you would like her very much if you knew her better. There! I've let the cat | out of the bag, for you do know her already. Really, Mr. Weed,” she went on confidentially, “Miss Peckham is | one of the most charming girls at the Brownstone. And so versatile! can do anything—cook, sew, sing, con- verse intelligently, do anything. | Really, you should cultivate her ac-| quaintance. I'm sure you two would be very congenial.” Young Weed's bhalr fairly stood up with alarm as he hurried away. Evidently there was a combinaticn to suare him. The next afternoon Miss Peckham sat on the porch reading. She was entirely unconscious of the havee that had been wrought by her well meaning friends. She looked up in surprise as young Weed came out ca the porch, suitcase in hand, his lons, pointed nose stabbing the atmospheie before him. Having scented danger, ! he was making his retreat. He staricd | slightly as he spied Miss Peckham and took a firmer grip upon his suitcase. “Why, Mr. Weed, are you lcaving us?” she inquired, turning her round, surprised eyes on the suitcase. “Umph kuh!” he grunted. “Going on the North side to live. Walking dis tance from downtown, you know.” “Well, you must not forget us, Mr. Weed. Come over and see us occa- sionally, won't you? “'Frald not,” young Weed mumbled ! ungraciously, leveling his mplclous eyes upon the anxious little spinster, his face wrinkling in a sour emile. “Going to take up a correspondence course and will be too busy eveniugs to make many calls. G'by!" He strode off down the street, swinging Lis suitcase relievedly.— Chicago Daily News.

A too youthful | way of wearing the hair is a pitiful travesty on youth and makes one look far older. Hair that has thinned is better disguised by a loose, simple arrangement of one's own hair than by striving to heavily bolster it. Halr that is losing its lustre or graying is not improved by dyes, which quickly ruin the quality and reduce the quan- tity of what hair one has. Simplicity is shown in the latest way of wearing the hair. If your locks grow thick- ly and you want to be fashionable, do away with all knots, twists and loops, Are You Going to Build?

Sometimes a front or side parting is made and the hair may be pushed into an oblique sort of ridge from crown of head to nape of neck. The only break in this smooth- ness is three short curls pinned to hang on the neck. For the woman of thin locks to at- | tempt such simplicity would be folly, and even thick hair will not look its ' best unless it be made soft, fluffy and lustrous with much brushing. If the hair lies too flat to be becoming it may have to be brushed back over a low roll of tulle to match. ! Phone 28.
