H.
M. STONE, general secretary of
the Young Men's Christian As-!
sociation, gave an informal talk
ytsterday before the members of
the Woman's Political Science Club,
dwelling on plans for drafting of the
prohibition law. He said that, the
committee had already spent many
hours considering questions that af
fected the dry law and that the en
deavor was to submit a law that would
be; satisfactory. Mr. Stone's address
started a general discussion of prohl-
-oicion, ana a wioe diversity 01 opinion
Ttas evidenced. Mr. Stone said that,
personally, he would like to see such
a: law that would make it impossible
for physicians to prescribe liquor.
-"And I'd like to see it so churches
couldn't serve 'booze' for sacramental
purposes." he said. "I do not expect
that any prohibition will entirely do
away with a certain amoant of drink
ing, but it will make it harder for
people to get liquor and so make con
ditions generally much better."
H. C. Uthoff advocated the passage
of ' a law similar to that in force In
West Virginia, "to make the prohibi
tion movement consistent.",
Mrs. Josephine Sharp presided. A
rising -vote ot thanks was tendered

TO OWN a large nose shows a
strong character; most famous
characters, amongst men at least, have
had large nocea. .
A very - small nose shows lack of
moral vigor.
- A flat nose betokens a poor intellect.
The pointed nose shows meddlesome

The owner of a hooked nose is usual
ly shrewd and one of clear purpose In
life.
Noses with wrinkles at their, sides
belong to those fond of money.
A nose thin at the bridge shows generosity;-a
thick nose, acquisitiveness.
Large nostrils betoken courage;
small ones, timidity.
Turned up noses under high, arched
foreheads belong fcb'people of tyran

Retrousse noses are the signs of a

He Went Away.
'Dear Miss Blake: I'm a young -girl
of 21, and am engaged to" be married
to a young man of 28. But I'm almost
heartbroken, as he has stopped his at
tentions without giving me any rea
sons. About four weeks ago he went
away on his vacation with another
young man, and they were going to
travel through several' states, on their
motorcycles. He promised me that ba
would write at every place they
stopped. Of course -1 could -not write
him anything, which he surely knows.
too. I received three cards from nun
In the first week. Then I heard no
more, but thought he would soon re
turn and tell me all. To my great dis
appointment I heard he had returned
to the town in which he works, only
18 miles from here, and he never wrote
me or called to let me know he was
back. Do you think "he is trying to
break the engagement? Or do. you
think some one. has told him something
false which he may believe? I know
he is there and is at work. I wrote
a short note asking for what reason he
acted so distant. Did I cheapen my
self by doing so?" I - love him dearly,
but I will stand for my. rights. '
1NGA.
If you are engaged to be married to
the young man you had every right to
know why he acted as he did. .If I
were you, however, now that he has
proved to ' be so little worthy of your
love, I should write him a note break
ing the engagement. If he paid no at
tention whatever to the note you wrote
him, you can be sure that he does not
care so much aboirt you as the man
should whom you marry.

"RANK was a very pleasant little boy-J
X most of the 'time; he never forgot
to remove his hat when he met a lady
or when he entered the house.
But he found fault at the table about
his food and his mother was worried
for fear this fault-finding habit would
grow upon him and he would become
a disagreeable man, for, of course, no
one likes a person who finds fault.
One night Frank went to his room
ana undressed and got into bed.
The light from the hall shone on the
picture of three little brownie men Bit
ting, on a fence, and all at once thv
began pointing their fingers at Frank
and jumped right out of the picture
onto his bed.
"Get off my bed,", said. Frank, "and
sit on your fence."
The little men put their hands over
their faces and laughed, their big eyes
peeking out through their fingers.
"What are you laughing at?" asked
Frank. But they did not. reply to his
question. One of the Brownies pointed
at Frank at the window, then he made
a motion to the others, and Frank felt
himself flying out of the window, with
a brownie on each side ajid one push
ing at his back.
Soon they were In the woods and
Frank ran along with them until they
reached a little brown house with a
peaked roofv
The brownies took Frank Into the
house. It had only one room, the top
of which seemed to run to a point, and
Frank could not see the end of it.
He was wondering why he had been
brought to this place when the door
opened and in came the goblins.
"What haB he done?" they asked the
brownies.
The brownies did not speak, but made
signs where the goblins seemed to
understand.
"O! he finds fault, does he?" said
one goblin. "Well, as he is a nice boy
in every other way, we can draw that
fault out by putting on our famous
poultice." j,
One brownie ran to the fireplace and
lighted a fire, another put a kettle over
it, and the third took from a closet a
number of jars.
When the steam came from the ket
tle they poured the water over the con
tents of the jars and stirred it very
fast.
The goblins put Frank on the bed
and one of them said: "When you go
home your mother will thank us for
taking away your fault-finding habit,
for this is a sure cure."
One of the brownies ' brought a
steaming poultice which a goblin .put
on one of Frank's feet. Another ,was
brought and put on the other foot, an
other was put on his head and another
on his chest.
'Take them away." said Frank;
"They are burning me and I do not
like them."
"You did not like the soup tonight."
said a goblin, "but It was good for you.
and so are these poultices. You must
keep them on until all the fault-finding
in you is removed," and the goblins
went out, followed by the brownies,
and closed the door.
"O. dear," said Frank. "I- wish I
never had fund fault Help! . Help!"
he called, and away up In the peak of
the room Frank saw a light. It came
nearer and nearer, and Frank saw a
fairy with a star on. the end of her
wand.
"Did you call?" she asked, as she
reached the floor.
"Yes," answered Frank; "I want to
get away from here."
"I will help you," said the fairy, and

she waved her wand over him, and off
fell the dreadful poultices, and the
fairy took him by the hand.
Up and up they went through the
peaked roof and out into the woods.
When the fairy had taken Frank
where the power- of the goblins could
not reach him she said: "I have helped
you - because I" do not think you in
tended to be a disagreeable boy, and
I want to give jfou another - chance.
You must not find fault any more, and
when you go to the table eat what Is
served and retnember that there are
many little boys and girls in the world
who are hungry and would be glad to
have a small part of the nice dinner
you have every day. If the goblins
get you again I may not be able to res
cue you and they will put on the poul
tices again."
Frank promised that he would not
find fault any more, and the fairy
waved her wand and the star grew
brighter and brighter. Frank opened
his eyes and there was his mother be
side the bed tucking the clothes around
him.
"What ' Is the. matter?" asked his
mother.
"I guess it was a dream," said Frank,
and then he told her about the goblins
and the fairy and how the brownies
had carried him off in his dream.
