She was no longer quite the cling­ ing, trusting girl, half-child, who had been content just with the knowledge that he loved her. Her womanhood had awakened,, and with it a passion- : ate demand to take a woman’s place at his side in the eyes of the world. “Araby,” he began sharply, but ■ again she stayed him. 1 “Please don’t say any more now,” “I’d rather you didn’t.” could not. After a moment he laugh­ ed, an old laugh that was sorrowful as well as tender, and drew her closer. “If you are afraid of me, don’t be,” he said. “It will be worth much to just have been together. And, for me, there will be imperishably sweet memories.” But with a broken cry she wrenched away from him. His pleading was torture to her, her overwhelming de­ sire to yield to him racked her. “Don’t!” she flung at him; then, rather breathlessly, almost hardly: “What you ask is impossible. I mean it. I cannot consent.

In contrast with this, we find that the lack of a universal system of education in most of the European countries was the great determining factor in the de­ velopment of Continental peasantry. We read much about the marvelo-us folk music of Russia. If we reflect, we find that this was the result of lack of school education, and it was one of the ways through which the peasantry expressed its social, intellectual and political developments. The folk music of Germany, perhaps not so in­ spired as the music of Russia and not so beautiful in its content, was the re­ sult of education built largely around mythological text. European diplomacy realized at a very early stage that national educa­ tion would be a large contributing ele­ ment in solidarity in political unifica­ tion, and because of this fact did a great deal to encourage music as a national institution. The government- supported opera houses in several continental countries made the de­ velopment of music possib’ y, and therefore brought distinction and hon- • or to native sons; This country has not felt the necessity for this, but the time will surely come when our own government will appreciate the fact that there is no greater force in na­ tionalization than a well organized and controlled schem for educating the populace to the belief that music is an important part of educational and political strength. What the Schools Can Do. Our public school systems, with very few exceptions, are now stressing music with the hope that no one shall leave school ignorant at least of the Influence which music has in character building for citizenship. Each year’s enormous sums of money have been appropriated by private individuals for the maintenance of opera houses, sym­ phony orchestras, choral societies. Such money was needed because with­ out it little progress could havi been made. To such citizens who given unselfishly to the great only the fullest praise should corded. Criticism is hardly in even by those who still hate to see the great subject of music patronized largely by the wealthy. Certain civic bodies have done a great deal in the direction of cultural music, but un­ fortunately there has never been a consistent effort to nationalize this principle. The activity has been large­ ly local, and no government recogni­ tion has, up to the present, been given. In spite of these conditions, the schools have been carrying on the great war of bringing music not only into the school, but also into the home. The organization of bands and or­ chestras, glee clubs, etc., in our schools cannot be without fruitful result. The full effect, of course, may not be real­ ized for several generaltions, but it is bound to come, because a love of music is being instilled into the hearts of the citizens of to-morrow. And for that reason the early formation of cor­ rect habits will inspire the men and women of coming generations to make possible the ideals of the present-day teachers. The development of mechanical musical instruments has played a very strong part in the cultural life of the people. Perhaps the well organized music in motion picture houses in the larger cities will gradually make itself felt in smaller towns and communities, although not on so fine a scale. Every once in a while a group of enthusiastic people gather together for the purpose of giving more recog­ nition to music by cur native com­ posers. Surely there is no more worthy movement. Yet there are so few of the new world composers who CHAPTER LI. Kemp did not answer immediately, but she felt him stiffen under her1 light hold, and her heart sank.

She had listened quietly, her young face full of understanding and sym­ pathy, yet shadowed by something which made him wonder a little. A silence fell between them presently. Araby broke it. “Then it is likely you will be going away again soon?” He looked at her dissipated. And Gordon was growing more and more impossible to manage, to advise. Womanlike, she had no idea of business and refused to 'believe that Kempton could not help her more if he would.

When warring nations cease their strife, and they then turn their at- i tention to the higher arts, men and women of culture then give thought to the daily bread which they eat.

Apropos, I protest against a custom' that is general in so many homes^—' that of eating in haste, thus giving only the necessary time at the table to throw food into the stomach, much! like the manner of giving fuel to the' locomotive. This, I firmly believe, is the chief cause of so many distressing stomach and digestive disturbances, i To allow time to eat sufficient food in a manner that will afford proper digestion is vitally necessary if we are anxious to keep well.

Besides, this Frenchman does not: rely on his own judgment, but affirms that also many ladies’ tailors and mil­ liners share his view, and it is the milliners who are considered by him most competent to form opinions on woman’s beauty. i Give a Serious Thought to the French Dressing. To make French dressing use olive oil and pure, fragrant vinegar. Let the oil be put in by a spendthrift, the vinegar by a mishr, and the stirring be done by a madman, according to the classic directions. Coming down to more prosaic instructions: One teaspoonful salt. One-half teaspoonful dry mustard. One-fourth to one-half teaspoonful paprika. One-half teaspoonfu Two slices onion garlic). ■Six table-spoonfuls olive oil. Two tablespbonfuis vinegar. Mix the dry seasonings and vinegar and ojl, beat'ng with a fork. Add the cn'ion (a most essen­ tial ingredient) and keep in a cold Waterproof Mitts. The five or ten-cent cotton mitts which are so largely bought by work-j ingmen may be waterproofed by dip-; ping them in melted paraffin; or, if, a thinner coat is preferred and only; on the palm of the mitts, melted par-' affin may be brushed over their sur-1 face. For handling damp bricks, for; working with plaster, or cement, par- : affin mitts are far superior to the' original. Women will find them valu-j able when scrubbing floors, setting out plants, etc. Leather gloves for use’ by farmers in hauling damp corn fod-: der or any material that is wet, may; be waterproofed in the same way. The coating of paraffin may be renewed as ! often as the surface needs it. Mitts and gloves—even boots for ditchers— treated with paraffin last longer, be­ cause the water can do them little damage. The comfort the wearer ex­ periences by using waterproofed mitts or gloves far outweighs the bother of melting and applying the paraffin. i Chocolate Cream Cake, cake unsweetened chocolate, cup milk. y2 % 1 yolk of egg. 2 tablespoons of sugar. 1 teaspoon vanilla.

The day is coming when this will be the case, and time alone will be the determining factor as to whether the music by our composers shall take its place side by side with composers of the old world. However, if we are going to make music a force in a democracy, we must not com­ mence by adopting the ancient stand­ ards which we have followed for many years, but we must begin anew in an effort to reach all people of all classes and stations in life, train them along the ideals of appreciation and hope that at least a few of them will arrive at the point where it is possible to create something wonderful in art as well as to develop the power to per­ form. Such standards have not yet been determined. It will depend largely upon the character cf music which is to be taught in our schools for years to come. Poor Child!
