I once went to Fortnum and Ma- son's and asked to sea the head of the foreign department. He was out to lunch, which sounded human: I feel sure that such a thing would never occur'in a general store. "Oh, all right," said 1, "I'll go to a mat- inee and come in later." When I confided to him that I wanted a hamper for a son in Tan- ganyika, he was at once "on the spot," and told nie, with a good deal of incidental fun, exactly what would "do," what would travel well through the Tropics, what the exile would eagerly welcome, and a few surprises that he could stick ii side- ways at it were. He seemed to have been there himself. I left that shop feeling that a real friend was going to put It through for me. This friendly spirit is not cdrr'lned to any one type of shop or region of the town.

S Famous Wax Figures 13 Slowly Decaying Effigies of England's Mon - A. archs Show Effects of Time London.—Probably the most inter- esting "waxworks" in the world, and possibly also the oldest, are threaten- ed by decay, They i•eperesent the great kings and queens of England and, unknown to four out of five Lon- doners, are in Westminster Abbey. They are more valuable, more histori- cally accurate and more lifelike than any waxwork models exer exhibited ab in the galleries. of I1me. Tussaud. ag These figures, which are hundreds gr of years old, provide fascinating like- nesses et England's sovereigns from the time of Edward III. to the begin- ning of the eighteenth century, Most of the effigies were modeled from life and carried in royal funeral proees- ;ions. Nearly every figure is dressed in clothes which .were actuallj*• worn yo ley the royal personages depleted. The older figures, which are most rapidly disintegrating, are made of wood, plaster of boiled hides, the more recent ones of wax. The latter, which ge ow in ey ummer has trimmed with lily and rose The round of her raiunient's hem, ut you'll never learn where the sum- mer goes By a word from them. But autumn walks in her stateliness With a whisper of lifted sheaves, nd the rustle is heard of her silken dress In the drifted leaves. —Will H, Ogilvie, in the Glasgow Herald. 111 Luck I have never known a person to succeed co any extent who is all the time predicting his failure, expect- ing things to turn out badly wtih him; the man who is always talking out his ill -luck, that. the fates are ainst him, that the trust,: and the eat eombinations have ruined the chances for the ord'nary man.

With Roberta tears 'Were a sign of weakness, the weapons of the tyrannous, the first refuge of h., 1 hllant and 'lnsportsman-like women; although when her emotions were deeply stirred, as by grief or pity, she enjoyed weeping. She patron- ieed huin n -interest or heart-throb plays and avoided profound books written with an obviously greater con- cern for style than substance. In- stinctivc.Cy she wanted to get her teeth into life; at least, that is how Crooked Bill expressed it, and he had a peculiar gift for apt and illuminat- ing expresslcn. She dried her tears and applied the j:owder rag again. And then the rear reason for her charm—the reason men adored her and made love to her- •- presented itself. Roberta was a. goad sport—none-better, and hated a quit- ter with all the strength of her vital, intelligent soul.

In a way of speaking he has demolished her. Paralyzed her power.. of initiative and inventiveness and left her helpless to defend herself,; grounds her to a pulp! The only thing he had been decent enough to refrain from doing was laugh air her, but of course he had been much too angry to do that. He had contented himself with glaring; at her in a most unlover-like manner, which demonstrated a'.. too conclusive. ly that his protestations of Jove, made a minute before, had been unpre- meditated, unsound, insecure, and wholly inconsequentia.. She was glad now that she had found him out, be- cause for a month she hacl been asking herself if it could be possible that she was becoming seriously interested in the reran. ,. She decided now that his unusual- ness, as compared with the average run of men, was what had challenged her interest and attention, for of course she could never afford to admit, even to herself, that he had aroused every drop of sporting blood in her sporty little body. The fact that he had been indifferent, sentimentally lethargic—a bit dull, in fact—had con- tributed a challenge to her, and she had . resolved to demonstrate to hint that he was not, nor by any possibil- ity ever could be, where she was con- cerned, the captain of his soul, the master of his fate! And he had proved to her what a monumental failure she had turned out to be in an art where, to quote Crooked Bill again, she was supposed to be one hundred and fifty per cent. perfect: .

When you can't, keep cool and carry -on in comfort.. Aspirin was meant for just such times, for it insures your comfort. Freedom from those pains that nag -at nerves and wear you down. One tablet headache l whilel{itllist ithreateningu threat. Take two or three tablets when you've caught a cold, and that's usually the end of it. Carry Aspirin tablets when you travel. Have some at home and keep some at the office. Like an efficient secretary, they will often "save the day" and spare you many uncomfortable, unproductive hours. Aspirin is harmless, so keep it handy, keep it in mind, and use it. No man of affairs can afford to ignore the score and more of uses explained in the proven directions.' From a grumbling tooth to those rheumatic pains which seem almost to bend the bones, Aspirin'tabiets are ready with quick relief -and always work. Neuralgia, Neuritis. Any nagging, needless pain.

It was a wood of young, silver beeches, very straight and slim and evenly spaced, stand- ing innocently and unknown at the top of a narrow lane which climbs from the little hamlet of Spain. It was enchanted ground, enclosed from the world as from the bright fields that skirted its edge, until the wood• cutters carne and the sound of the axe and the voices ravished that love- ly listening silence that was differ- ent from all the other silences I have ever known, Out of the brilliant sunshina,, live- ly with bird and bee and butterfly, the sound of reaping or hay -making, one took the little path between the fences and entered the kingdom. of faery. The trees closed behind as one entered in. The light at morn- ing drifted through the glades in palest primrose, that changed im- perceptibly through the long, tran- quil day to silver.
