Because he had loved her a long 4ime, he hesitated about telling her. ‘With the direct divinatioc of a wom- an's intuition, she surmised the truth. He had been trailing all about the subject for several moments, waiting the necessary courage. She took the amatter in hand calmly. “Why don't you tell me, Day?" she asked quietly. He started and looked at her uncomfortably. She smiled. “Is it sure, this time?” her voice was low and even. There was not the slightest suggestion of & scene in the atmosphere. He pulled himself to- gether with a jerk. “Meg,” he said softly, “you're a -wonder! How did you know?” “How could | help knowing?” she asked. “I am not blind.” “But I thought—I have been just vhe same.” he insisted “Your heart was rot in it, that was all,” she replied sadly i is not bu."" he said hesi tatingly in respc to her questions. “She {s little and pretty and needs gomeone to care for her.” Margaret etarted. Had it gone so far already? “I was not attracted toward her at all at first” he explained, “but she seemed so helpless and 1 got in the way of doing little things for her. She | has the sweetest smile and she {s—| 0, hang it all, Meg' don't make a fel fow tell yvou such fool things!” he dlurted out uneasily “You need tell me nothing unless vou like, boy.” She used the little amdme nnconsciously. “You know you are not bound to me in the slightest When are you to be married?" hed hotly “She is very lonely and she is only waiting until I can see my way cleat to—" 'Tun you were sent?" 1 mea longer."

I hated to tell you worse than—" “You are very considerate,” it was not quite a sneer, though he winced at the tcne. “You will be—we must always be the best of friends, Meg,” he halt questioned. She smiled bitterly. “Friends? Why, of course; we could not be less, could we “And you will come to sce her and visit us and be quite the same?” There was a note of ar * in the man's voice that touched “l can't promi “for 1 am goi to tell you be Aurt you."” him “We have been such chums—such comrades!” his voice broke a trifle *It is hard to say good-bye.” “Yes, it is hard" she assented gravely, but without spirit. There was & long pause, “May 1 kiss you once more?” he ssked haltingly. She looked at him long and searchingly. “0, you men, you men!” she ex claimed with sudden passion, as she looked ¢ iuto his eyes with bitter ness of . “You take all we have to givo—all—and still—" there was a away , but I, too, hated to The sarcasm was lost on #0b in her throat—"it's a little game | to you," her voice was steady once more.

Rome.—A valiant champion of Ilit- tle Montenegro is Prince Humbert, the nineyear-old son of King Victor of Italy. Prince Humbert does not approve at all hiz father's attitude toward Montenegro in the Balkaa war, and learned with disinay that Italy was in thorough accord with the other powers in demanding that the Montenegrins evacuate Scutari. A tfew days ago Prince Humbert was “playing war’ with his sisters in the royal nursery. The¢ king was an amused spectator of the game. Prince Humbert was the Montenegrin leader and he “killed off" 2!l the Turks—his sisters la the game. Turning to his father, the little ! rince demanded to be sent to Cettin'e. “Why?" asked the king. The prince thoug!t for a moment and remembered that his mother | and grandfather were Montenegrins. “Well,” he replied, "I think you ought to be there fighting, but as you are not, 1 suppose I ought to go to| grandpapa and show nim that we are on his side. Why are you not with him?" “You see Italy is still fighting Trip- olf and I am required here,” replied the king. “But suppose you were not re quired here,” asked the little critie, “would you go to Montenegro?”’ King Victor hesitated, and chose his words with care. “No, I don't think so0," finally. Prince Humbert shouldered his toy gun and shook his head “l think it {s very wrong of you,” he said emphatically. "I am going to practice so that 1 can kill all of | grandpapa's uemics They're all he said Turks, uu\ way."” | TO PROBE FAI‘IR 'V!YSTEPIES« Andrew Carno jie Frnanc:: EApCdI(IO"\ That Will Yeek to Uscover Many | Unknown Feals Berlin. — .ndrew Curnczie has! financed a swwall party of investigas | tors who will fave ite the mys | | of levitation in nd possibly Andrew Carnegic. sor Schwidtal of Posen The young savant has made a come | prehensive study of the methods em- ployed by the fakirs and mugicians of India under the supervision of Profes- | | l | Egypt in performing their various | feats of magic.

No Cause to Complain of Lack of Variety in Children's Dresses This Season—Simplicity the Watchword. Certainly no one will have cause to complain of any lack of variety in | children’s frocks this season. They | are as original and show as mucb in- dividuality as those designed for thelr | elders. There {8 no restriction as to material, and, as to design, both the coat dress and the long walsted ef- fects are about equally popular. Frills ana fluffy ruffles do not seem to be- long to the children of nowadays, the smartness of their frocks being ats tained through good lines and sim- plicity, though not necessarily, severe- ly. An effective design for a small girl fs here sketched. A telling point in its favor is that it elips on like a coat, buttons down one side and is belted in loosely with a soft crushed sash, which, in its treatment, forms Frock and Sash for a Small Girl. feature of the frock. White eponge |or ratine is used, cut in one piece from neck to hem. The opening down the left side is curved from under the collar, and has the lower corners rounded off, leaving a very short notch In the skirt. The sleeves are long and easy fitting, set into dropped | armholes under a corded seam. Blue or tan colored ratine may be used for the round turned back collar and cuffs, with the buttons along the side opening to match, or it may be left all white. A nine-inch width of mes- saline will be better and softer than ribbon for the sash, which is tied loosely about the waist with one end | run through the eyelet in front and knotted under the opc nin: Fashsqns Fancies LSl S S o v The light laces—shadows and so on —are the kinds pro ed for spring.
