WE DO NOT BELIEVE that the good people of Flor- ida reudize that there are right now in our State Hundreds of little children in real need—some absolutely homeless— that just must be cared for. We feel sure—that they do not know that there are hun- dreds of worthy mothers in Florida who are just struggling to keep their little ones alive—and at home. We just cannot believe—that with these facts true—and every orphanage in Florida crowded to the doors—that the people of Florida will let our great work which has cared for 850 of these little ones this year alone—go down for lack of funds to keep it up Your immediate help—is greatly needed—right now—Please send what you can to-day—to R.

He had married her and taken her to England to live. Aft- | er his death she had returned to her native country. At school Walter was twitted by his friends with being an Englishman.

Practical that he was, Walter Mainwaring went straight to Miss 1915. T —————————————— “Well, it’s come, mother,” said thc z himself for the ordeal. answered his mother, dreadful thing, but some- necessary. And this seems necessary. Eagland could not have done anything else.” “No,” answered the boy. When his mother yielded so readly he Kknew that she had stronger dissuasive argu- ments behind. “i want to show you something, my dear,” she continued. and, leading the way into the living room, she began rummaging among a heap of papers in a desk. At last she brought out what she had been looking for, and, smiling at her son, sat down beside him at the table. “You knew we were not rich enough for you to go to college when you wished it, Walter?" she asked “1 suspected so, mother, answered the boy. “I have never told you how our af- fairs stand. Your father was a dis- ciplinarian; he wanted you to be un- der me until you were twenty-one; then you were to become master of the house.

That p.rt was left indefinite. He want- ed to do his duty toward you te the full; to give you every opportunity, that you should be able (o support me in comfort afterward. 1 am afraid, my dear, that your father thought more of me than of you—he had the English idea of children’s duty to subordinate themselves to their par- ents.” “And we have spent—?" “All but $1,600, Walter. As | tola you, prices are much higher than when I was a girl. Your father reckoned on our living modestly upon a thousand a year. It costs us twelve hundred and fifty. That is the reason why you went into the bank and not to col- lege.” And suddenly she threw her arms s0 | around his neck and kissed him impul- sively. *0, don’t you think I know, dearest?" she cried. “Don’t you supose your mother can read your heart?

She caught him by the hands. “What do you mean, Walter?" she cried. | “England wants every man,” he an- | swered. “You know my father's rec- | ord, Agnes. It would be expected of me." “But when are you going?" asked | the girl, stricken almost speechless by the thought. “Tomorrow,” he answered. That was all, but it was a fortunato | thing that there had never been any lovemaking between them. Agnes felt that she had no excuse for tears—ex- cept In her own room; for reproaches, except perhaps dim feelings that he had wronged her. She had loved him, and had awalt- ed the time when he would be able to declare his love. She thought he had | gone into the bank instead of to col- lege 80 a8 to bring that time nearer. | Perhaps he had.

The president, | Agnes’ father, was away on a busi- ness trip. Walter had not been able to catch Mr. White at the bank. So | he took the most direct route; he went | to his house. | "l am going to give up my position, | #ir,” he sald “I am going to England | to enlist.” “Good Lord!™ sald Mr. White, star ing at the young fellow.

He would have come home a peer, with a pension large enough to give us everything we wanted. But | because of his ability he had to stay at home and help direct the others, who were less skillful than he. He bore it bravely. You know his motto: ‘They also serve who only stand and | wait. " The boy looked up at her, and in the tragedy of his face she saw that all his youthful dreams were shat- tered. But she knew that a Mainwar- ing would not prove false to the duty which lay immediately to hand. She saw what he was suffering; knew that his father’s instincts were strong in the son. She saw the quiet life in the village, without even the consolation of marriage for years to come. Perhaps she guessed that he had already told Agnes of his inten- tion, and pictured the smiles at his enthusiasm, the commendation of his “‘common sense” which would prove more galling than the criticism of folly. She saw all this, and how he re ceived the blow just as his father had done in England, ten years before. ‘The boy rose up. “God bless you, mother,” he sald. “I belleve I'll run over to the bank after supper to help, because Mr. White is balancing the accounts.” (Copyright, 1914, by W.

On that gide the ocean wa- ter is farther from the moon, than the center of the earth is. In consequence the earth is drawn away from the wa- ter, and the latter is raised into a tide analogous to the one on the other side. Velvet Neck Ruffs. Velvet neck ruff and muff sets will be worn.
