Sheriff Bill Lamle ended a long
vigil, spat a wad of tobacco into
the cold stove and banged down

"No fool like an old fool," he

Was that a rider pulling up out-

The stranger at the door was a
man in store clothes. Though U0-

"I thought maybe you'd gime me
a little official information."
"About what." the sheriff asked.
"Rewards." \Veber's grin was
wine 11)2(1 boastful. "1 want to know
where i stand if I deliver to you
a toast worth stoney in several
states—say rive thousand here, and
ten thousand over in New Mex,
and fifteen thousand down Texas

Laude's temper was testy. °\Vicat

"Yes. I think it's good business

"So do I—to got your man first.
Who is ire?"
"I'd rather not say right (tow:"
Suddenly Laude, with a growl
deep in, his throat, darted behind
Reber. He pushed the man away
front the outer door and twisted
the key in the lock.
Lande clutched the man by the
scruff of the heck and the seat

across tits door, shoved him into

Script Reveals
True Charaeer
Does that boy you love so much
write a script like the writer of
this week's illustration? There are
so many variations of character
indicated in this script that his be-
haviour will probably bewilder you
at tunes and cause you to wonder
whether he is as sincere as he pro-
fesses to be. He probably does
not understand himself as he should
and if his actions are mysterious
and unsettled, there ie a reason for
it.
Jeer look at the writing ltelow.
See how specious the script is and
li 0, far flung the letters and words
are. There is nothing cramped
about his w'riti210. How could any -
2222, expect this fellow to narrow
his thoughts and actions clown to
a el111111Un cans. to fo112in• a single
line of th059111, 1. concentrate on
one thing for a long ; -'riod of time.
\Nkat he desires most is plenty of
room to think, to broaden his
knowledge, to cover a lot of ground
just as he has so clearly indicated
le the spaciousness of his writing.
Now We have the anwer to his
unsettled nature. He hasn't the
personality- to stay put; he is the
outdoor, adventurous type and must
be on the move if he is to be
happy,
* * *
Notice (tow broad and round the
letter "y" looks, Here is a person-
ality that is adaptable and congeni-
al, that likes change and variety.
The things for which he may show
preference today will not necessari-
ly retain this same preference to-
morrow. You can only expect him
to he adaptable and congenial when
there is plenty of scope for his ever
changing thoughts and actions.
Deep emotion and sentimental
feeling, evident in this script, indi-
rate a nature that is easily- moved
by sympathy for others, and long-
lasting impressions for sentimental
things. Do not be surprised if he
takes exception to challenges of his
personal honor for he is an idealist
and rates behavior above alt other
traits of character, This makes him
sensitive to injustices, and w'ill
cause hint to make his stand against
these even if it entails personal sac-
rifice. To sum up this trait of char-
acter, the writer will always have
a soft spot in his heart for the un-
derdog , nd will not stand idly by
while injustices are being imposed
upon a fellow man without rais-
ing a protest.

Modern Etiquette
By Roberta Lee
Q. What is the correct way for
a married woman to sign her name
in social correspondence?
A. She should use her full name.
If Jane Smith has married Henry
Brown, she should sign her social
correspondence, "Jane Smith
Brown" or, "Jane S, Brown." In
writing to a stranger, she should
write below her signature, "Mrs.
Henry Brown,"
Q. Is it bad foram to tip a soup
bowl, or a plate containing liquid
food, ((leen eating?
A. Yes, this is too often done,
and should be avoided.
Q. When accompanying a woman
in the rain, should the man carry the
umbrella?
A, Yes, always.
Q. Is it necessary that a person
slate his reason for declining an
invitation?
A. No, while it is not obligatory,
it is oftentimes a courteous thing to
do, and probably will avoid a mis-
understanding and resentment,
Q. What would be the proper
way to introduce ,\lis, Smith to 11011.
13rown?
A. Say, "Mrs, Brown, may I pre.
sent Miss Smith ?" Or, "Mrs. Brown,
Miss Smith." Always present the
unmarried woman to the married
one.
JUST 'NFATUATION NOW
* There is no reason that you
*
shouldn't encourage this nice lad,
* and become friends with him, Of
* course you are only infatuated at
* the moment, for you scarcely know
* hint, and acquaintance may show
* that you two are not compatible
* at all. That's a chance. too,
TO "MRS. F. S,": I understand
how anxious you arc to adopt a
child, and I'm in favor of it —
later. After you have had your
operation, you will know how much
your health improves; and when
you get a larger house you'll have
the extra room which the agency
demands for the baby. This delay
will quell your family's present
objections, too.
1t is likely that when you do
adopt a baby, your husband will
take more interest in the (mouse and
also in helping to train the child,
Remember, timough, that supporting
and educating a child costs more
as it grows older; so he is wise to
plan to increase his income where
he can.
Meanwhile, take as active a part
as you can in your church activi-
ties and community affairs. I know
you do your part of the work 011
the farms, hut outside interests will
help balance that, and make life
more pleasurable for you. 'Then
you won't get -so depressed.
A woman's health depends large-
ly on how happy she is, how satis-
fied with time life she leads. It is
my opinion that when you do adopt
1 baby you will find your strength
adequate, and your spirits improv-
ed. So later on, when you come
home from the hospital, you will
find out whether the idea is as
practicable then as you hope.

Eternal Life
Colossians 3:1 4, 12 17; 1
John -5: 11.12,
Golden Text — And this is Life
eternal, that they might know Thee
the only true God, and Jesus Christ
whom thou hast sent. —.1011n 17:3,
The resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead is the most astound-
ing miracle. That I -Ie, whose side
was pierced, rose from the grave
after three (lays, nevermore to die,
sealed the fact of His divinity. Aro
wonder the chief priests and elders
bribed the soldiers to tell that the
body was stolen away while they
slept. His resurrection is set forth
in the Scripture as a prophecy that
we too, shall rise front the dead at
His appearing in glory. It is also a
type and a symbol of tite Christian
life even now. It is this last sense
that is 'emphasized In this lesson, "if
ye be risen with Christ, seek those
thiugs which are abole — set your
affection on things above, not on
things on the eartlt," We nuts 1 have
clothes, h0ttees, cars, eta, but we
need not' set our hearts upon them.
If we are possessors of eternal life,
our aspirations are higher.
* * *
Paul exhorts those who are risen
with Christ in this newness of life.
We must be merciful, kind, humble,
meek, long-suffering and forgiving.
Holding all these graces is divine
love, which is the bond of perfect-
ness. God's peace is to be the umpire
in our hearts, We are to be thank-
ful.
In such hearts there is music.
Psalms, hymns and spiritual song
are the vehicles of expression for
the music within. Some are poor
singers and yet have the singing
heart.
