out in the safe darkness of the
churchyard the soul of Horace Lud-

Before her companion was quite

sive front door and had vanished
within the darkness of the great
house. As the young man walked
rapidly back along the same street,
hie fingers clutched tightly the bit of
t a blossom. When he carne to a light,
he looked at it a minute.
"Heartsease!" he said to himself.
"She has given me a sprig of hearts-
ease, bless her innocent heart!"
The next Sunday morning Horace
Ludlow was not in church. He spent
a glorious day out on the great damp
meadows of Edgecomb. There, in the
piny, braeken-grown lands, he found.
what he was seeking—fairen clumps
of fringed gentian, blue and wonder-
ful as the sky iitself. It seemed to him
there was nothing else quite perfect
enough to offer the maid of his
dreams. He wondered how he should
find courage to walk up to the great
house and offer Eloise the flowers.
And then came to pass the third
miracle.
Toward him, stepping daintily and
joyously, walked Eloise. She did not
see the man until they met face to
face. In her hand she carried a small
basket and a Kittle red -bound book.
Not at all sure of how it happened,
Horace Ludlow found himself walking
back to Edgecomb, carrying the bas-
ket and the little book, while Eloise,
beside him, had the great bunch of
fringed gentians. She had been talk-
ing for some time before he realized
just what she was saying.

I. YOUTH WRITES A
LETTER TOLOVE
Youth Writes a Letter to Love :...
PART V.
It took her no more than a mo -
went, and thenshe dropped it into
Icer lap, still keeping a tight hold
upon it.
"rhe shan't have it," she declared
with bitter heat. "Designing—she
hasn't any right—" ,
Replied the boy's father:
"He wanted her to have it, and it
is our last chance to do for him some-
thing he wanted done."
That was how Mary Hopkins hap-
pened to get the letter that was never
intended for her: It came when she
was on a case, and three hours passed
before she found an opportunity to
read it behind the closed door of her
room, sobbing over it, though there
was as much tenderness and adoration
as grief in her tears, and a great joy
in her breaking heart.
After a single reading she knew
it by heart, and so could keep on read-
ing it when her eyes were too tear -
dimmed to see:
Mary Dear: I don't think I'll ever
see you again, but Love doesn't get
shot dot; n in the trenches. I want you
to remember that always and always.
Your Godfrey.
And so, you see, it was the love of
Godfrey Hammond for the stationer's
unworthy Mary that gave all that
courage and inspiration to Mary Hop-
kins'"the nurse, making her all that
she had been in France.
Youth wrote a letter to Love, and
the letter Youth wrote was delivered.

Willing To Se Reasonable.
The talented actress, Miss Lena Ash-

wounded soldiers during the war, tells
a story concerning an Irishman named
McGuire.
Gassed, and suffering from trench
fever (says Miss Ashwell), he positive-
ly refused to take a second dose of
medicine, which happened to be un-
usually nasty.
Several sniffling nurses bent over
hint, and tried to coax him to be good.
"Come," pleaded one, "drink this
and you'll get well."

and coal make extra dirt, and thus
extra work, while the labor of builds'
in; a fire and keeping it going is no
small part of the day's work. Much of
this unnecessary work could be cut
out by buying a good oil or gasoline
stove. Once filled it is good for at
least a day, and in homes where it is
not so much used as a stove often
does the cooking for several days with
one filling. Then how easy to simply
turn a burner and apply a match when
you want a fire, No splitting kindling
or sending the children scurrying for
chips when you suddenly discover you
are out of bread and have biscuits to
make. No cooling of the oven with
a delicate cake baking, because you
forgot to fill the stove and the wood
has all burned out.
Best of all, think of the comfort in
summer. The hours of standing over
a scorching stove are eliminated. The
meals may be prepared and fruit can-
ned in a cool room. And on ironing
day you can have the stove moved out-
side onto a sheltered poreh and do the
ironing in comparative comfort, if you
have not yet attained the luxury of
a charcoal or gasoline iron.
Get the iron, however. They may
be purchased for a small sum and the
steps they save you in traveling back
and forth for a hot iron more than
pay back the money you spend. Along
with the iron get a mangle. You pro-
bably will not want to pay $150 for
an ironing machine, but the mangle
will do sheets, towels, unstarched
kitchen aprons, and even men's work
shirts quite satisfactorily.
Withyour stove and laundry appli-
ances eliminating unnecessary heat,
you will get through the summer in
much better shape than ever before.
The Health -Giving Salad.
Salads are a papular summer dish,
They should be made from fresh vege-
tables, which contain the health -giv-
ing elements that are so vitally es-
sential for our physical well-being,
There are also.. the mineral salts,
which help purify the blood stream,
and thus keep us physically fit.
Eggs, etc., that are used in prepar-
ing thedressings, have a food value
that may be figured upon in our daily
ration. Heavy salads, composed of
meat, are best to be eliminated for
the hot weather. . Replace them with.
light, 'dainty and attractnve saglads,
that are not only appetizing, but also
