“Revelations Léncoln is Especially Anxious ~Glad indeed was I that Dicky had < -chesen te talk to Lillian and me jointly about Eleanor Lincoln's wish to keep her posing secret, especially | from Philip Veritzen. I was wild with curiosity, tinged vaguely with/| resentment, but I would have died rather than permit myself to ask Dicky a question concerning it. Lil- lian, however, had no hesitancy in quizzing him. “What's the matter with the girl?" she asked wrinkling her nose at me before Dicky turned to look at her. He almost caught her grimace at| that, and I smothered a smile just| in time. “Weren't the poses suc- cesstul?” “Successful!” Dickey and the expression which his eyes was one T know is one which marks the successful fulfilling of some artistic plan, and it transfigures him. I have seen th same look upon Lillian’s face at th completion of some especially dif- ficult piece of advertising copy. 1! fancy every man or woman who does creative work wears it with varying frequency., “I don't know of course, what T'll be able to do with them,” he went on with the diffidence which often oddly accompanies his moments of | triumph, “but the poses are whizzes, and the sketches are as near good | as anything I've ever done. “They'll probably get by, then” Lillian commented dryly. “How many did you make?2" He told her and she lifted her eye- brows in patent astonishment. “Some work you've done this week lad,” she commented. “Why the rush—to get through before Phil got back ?' Dicky nodded. “That's the reason Miss Lincoln gave me,” he said. “It took some hutsling, but I'm all finished, won't have to make another sketch—if it | turns out that I-can't.” | “Aha! leaving yourself a loophole, | exclaimed | came into well, By Thornton W, Burgess All Is Well That Ends Well 8o be the end is fairly gained. —O1d Mother Naturg, No matter how it be attained l He had to in teddy Fox was hungry. speni o much time planning teh Jerry Muskrat and lying wait for him that he hadn’t paid | attention to hunting for food clses where, and 0 he was hungricr than | ever. The morning that he had dis- covered Billy Mink in the spring- Lole Itedéy had remained quiet un- til Billy had disappeared. Then Reddy had quietly left. He lad known that Jerry wasn't likely to appear that morning. Now, though he didn't know it, Reddy had been observed. It happered that Tommy Tit the Chickadce was over in the swamp that morning and he saw Reddy get up from his hiding place and trot away. “Dea-dec!” said Tommy Tit. *1 wonder what Reddy was doing over liere. He was waiting for some onc. 1 wonder who it could be.” Tommy was still wondering when he met Peter Rabbit, and he promptly told\ Peter all about what he had seen. Peter scratched a long ear with a long hindfoot. Then he scratched the other long ear with the other long hindfoot. “Jerry Muskra Peter. “There wouldn't be any for Reddy to watch around spring-hole but Jerry Muskrat. We have to keep an eye open for Jerry and warn him.” So the next morning when Reddy weat back to his hiding : I'ehind the little clump of alders to wait for Jerry Muskrat somebody was watching him. It was Peter Rabbit. Peter wis in a hollow stump only a lithe way off. He could sec Reddy and he could sce the spring- Liole. Peter didn't have long 1o wait. A brown head appoared in the spring-hole, 1t was th tead or Jerry Muskrat. Jerry had come from | under the ice. Jerry swam across toward the little clump of alders he- hind which Reddy was hiding. Peter Jdidn't know what to do. He didn't see how he conld warn Jerry of his danger without putting himself in danger. Inside that Tollow stunip there wasn't room for him to thump.

Lilllan queried mali- clously, and as Dicky's face red- dened, she laughly gleefully. “I don't blame you,” she sald. “There are more tiresome jobs thau sketching a pretty girl in surround- ings like The Larches. But you in- [terest me strangely. Tell me what |strangle hold has Phil got on the girl to make her so anxious that the knowledge of her posing be kept from him?"” “It's very simple,” he returned. “She’s wild to become a stage star, and he’'s given her a tacit promise that she shall be one, if she walks the chalk mark he lays out for her. |And one of the rules, of course, is his perennial one of no publicity. Just how he figures that those illus- | trations with no hint of the model's |identity would bring her into pub- licity, I can’t fathom, but that's | what he told her. But she's the sort iher cake and eat it too. Also, she hasn't any scruples about white s, even cream colored ones. There- fora she told me she would pose if 1 could keep her doing so from Vr- itzen until after the book is publish- ed. T fancy that not knowing the old guy's reputation for posscssing a concrete heart, she imagines she can soften his wrath, But I hadn't any notion that Jerry Ticer had seen me sketching her. I must get hold of him right away. “Better let Madge handle him,” Lillian advised. “With your usual sweet gentle ways he'd be frightened out of the few senses he has And, vou'd never know how many people | Le's told. Madge, you'd better drive down to The Larches and see Jerry and his mother right away. Then you'll be able to nip the thing per- haps.

Until recently, glasses were made oval in shape. They were clamped to the nose with & vise like grip, or were fastened te the convenient ears with large, glis- tening gold or silver bows. there are many intriguing shapes ~—wquare, round, oval, octagemal and leaf shape, By carefully study- ing your type of face with the various shapes it is podsible to get a very becoming effect. There are other things to be considered as well as the shape of the lens; for {instance, whether rimmed or rimless glasses should be chosen, nose glasses or spec- tacles. If nose glasses are your choice, remember that your ap- pearance may be made or jnarred by the shape of the piece of metal or shell which bridges the nose. There are two patterns in general use. One rests on the bridge of the nose and has the effect of m ring across it. ‘The other style, arched, does not break the natural line of our most promi- nent feature, It will well repay you to study these important features with the aid of a mirror.
