Many hair visors may look ate and smell nice, but the point is do they eradicate Dan druff and stop falling halrt No. they do not, but Herplclde does, because it goes to the root of the evil and kills the sera that attacks the papilla from whence the hair gets its life.

A saint would hart been driven fran tic by the girl I threw up my bands, figuratively, groaned literally and with an expletive not at all In harmony with the beat ethics of polite society declar ed to my tortured soul that she had the sphinx beaten a mile. The same not being an tlegant thing to do, I excuse It only on the ground that I was worried to the point of Ir responsibility. I swore by all the gods, from the little mud god of the Digger Indian to the war god Tbor, nsver to nave anything mora to say to her. Fif teen minutes later I was back on the hotel veranda watching that tantalis ing, Inscrutable glint In her eye. For I was human, and an was very dear to me. And the worst of It was sht knew It Once let a girl know you lovs ber and you are lost "And you don't wish me to go out with Mr. Blakeslesr the said with pro voking mildness. "And why, please f 'First," I broke out. "because you're going to marry me, and that In Itself oughf- "Indeedl And will you kindly tell me just when I promised to marry you, Mr. Jack Westonf She wasn't angry. I had not even that satisfaction. But I was both an gry and In love. "Tou-well, yon know it's as good as settled," I began, but she Interrupted me. "As good as settled P' she murmur ed dreamily. "Watch me nowT' ahe said. She lifted her hand toward brilliant butterfly which had alighted upon a rose at the edge of the porch. Her fingers opened. "Seer she aald breathlessly. "I reach my hand-my fin gers nearly touch him. Have I got him, though? It seems all I have to do Is to close my fingers so ah!" The gaudy creature eluded her Just as her fingers brushed his striped wings. "I didn't get hlmr sha sighed. "And I was so surt of him?' Sht Jumped up, gave me a teasing smile and ran down the steps. Pres ently I saw her with Blakeslee going toward the boat landing. A little later they were moving briskly up the river, snd then I taw It made my heart stop. Blakeslee palpably was the rawest dub In a ca noe, and a canoe with an unskillful r 1 7 STIRS MILWOOD, STBANOKIiT QUIET, HUD DLED IN THS BOTTOM OF THS CANOB. hand on the paddle Is about as dan gerous as a powder mill with a live coal knocking about in It. I started Involuntarily toward tho boat landing where my own canoe lay. Then I turned on my heel and stamped back. Not to save a thou sand lives my own included would I be seen following them. They and all the rest of the world would at tribute It to Jealousy, and- And deep down In my poor, aching, bedeviled heart I knew it would be th truth. I dug up my pipe and polluted tho sweet summer air for rods around. I determined to be a pessimist and a cynic and spend the rest of my life sneering at everything I used to like. I Jeered at the Idea of human felicity and wished I'd never been born. I had what Is technically known as the mollygrubs. And then Suddenly a great light broke over me. and I saw where I bad been playing the fool Instead of the wise general. I bad been giving ber all the advantage, and as I reviewed my case I grew ut terly and thoroughly ashamed of my self. The spectacle of a great six foot grownup man toddling around, be seeching a small girl to love him! How could she, when I was so devoid of stamina as that? And then I determined that corns what might I would do so no more. It might break my heart, but I was deter mined. Then, too, my heart was all crushed to frazzles anyway, so a little more breaking would be a mere Inci dent not worth considering. A mutter of thunder In the west, and I glanced up In apprehension. A black cloud was rolling up through ths pines, and already the wind was beginning to MP: sway the tree tops. I rose and looked I up the river. No ciutoe wns In sight FllltHi with alarm I climbed Into mr canoe, a tiny thin and paddled furV gusty up the stream ahead of the rising wind. Half a mile up the river, and no sign of the canoeists. The wind swept down I and almost Instantly the water was beaten Into whltecapa, and the little shell bobbed like a cork, but I held it straight ahead and watched It with the instinct of one trained to the paddle. And then the ralu came! As I rounded a bond In the channel I saw them. They were huddled undtr a heavy plus near th water's edge. The waves were trying to drlg the ca noe away from the bank, and Blakes lee, the picture of wot, wtt struggling V get It sshore. I ran my canoe close In and sprang upon the bank before they ssw me. It wat growing dark, what with the storm and the lateness of tht hour, Miss Mil wood turned and gavt a glad "y. "Oh, Jack," she said plteously, "I'm so glad! We've been unable to get borne! Our canoe was besten back by the storm, and It upset and we war thrown Into the water, and It waa a mercy It was near the shore, else we'd have drowned!" "How did you escape?" I asked stiffly. "We we waded! And I'm chilling to death, JackT' Her Hps were blue with cold, and she shivered miserably. Toor Blakeslee was In no better plight ' I hastened to right the other canoe with Blakeslee's help. Then I put the luckless boatman aboard, paddled him across to the mainland and bade him sprint for the hotel and get a roaring fire ready. I then recrosaed the river, lifted the terrified girl Into tht large canoe, tied the other behind and sot out in the teeth of tht storm. Doggedly and steadily, keeping as much as possi ble In the lea of the shore, we crept down the angry sheet of water. Miss Milwood, strangely quiet, huddled In the bottom of the canoe and said not a word. But I could hear her teeth chattering and I felt love and pity struggling hard with my new resolu Uon to bt grimly firm and uncompro mising. My muscles were aching and my heart throbbing as though it would burst when at last we drew Into tht shelter of the boathouse. I fastened the canoes and lifted tht wet flgurt ashore. '. "Oh, Jack," the quavered. "I should have died If you hadn't"- "I beg you won't mention it, Mist Milwood," I said with exaggerated po liteness. It was a mean thing to say. I realized It at the time, but It was nee essnry If I was to crush tht fierce long' Ing to take her In my arms. I hurried her up to tba hotel. From it time ahe pushed back her wet i gazed at me with a pathetic , '.l'::iiiesH which I affected not to see. I ' i Mo;-ii! had blown swiftly away, niul tho big white moon was sailing tlin.iu.-li the sky dotted with scudding cloud drift. 1 resigned her to the cart of tht so licitous Mrs. Kerens, who was all sympathy and bustling motherllness, Blakeslee was there In an agony of con trition. I went away, changed my wet clothing and sat down within the half lighted library, gloomily watching tht pint logs In the wide fireplace. After about an hour a timid band parted the curtains, and I knew with out turning my bead who it was. Sbs camo in slowly. "Jack," she said tremulously. I sprang to my feet and offered ber a chair. She refused to notice it Sht held out her hands. I In turn refused to notice them. "Jack," she whispered, "are you an gry r "Not at all, Miss Milwood!" I rejoin ed, still excessively polite and proper. "I am merely going to reform." She knew. For a moment she stood silent with ber head bent down. I stood gasing over her head with eyes which dared not look for a moment at hers, else all were lost Then I beard ber sob. "It was a bad day for butterflies," I muttered huskily. She glanced up, and I saw ber eyes filled with tears. "This butterfly Is tired, Jack dear Jack I" she whispered. "It doesn't want to flyf "Never for always?" "Never for always!" It was good all that wretchedness and anxiety of long months, when she lay tight against my breast and I kiss ed the perverse red lips meek now and sweetly submissive. Perverse no more, for the butterfly was caught! A One Famon City. Coerleon of Roman times and of the days of King Arthur still exists. The famous city that was once the garri son of the Second Augustan legion, ths capital of South Wales and the seat of an archbishopric la now a sleepy little town lying between the Industrial centers of I'ontypool and Newport, but is far enough away from both to have maintained the dignity and pathos of its isolation. Here are to be seen the ruins of a Roman am phitheater, a great oval bank of earth called Arthur's Round Table and an enormous mound once fortified by the Romans. The officers and men of the crack Roman regiment and tlielr wives and families left many remains of their occupation tombstones, frag ments of household utensils, needles and fibulae, remains of villas and baths, lamps, glass and enamel orna ments, carvings, rings, seals and the like, to be gazed upon in the cases o tht local museum. The whole place, with Its combination of bill and wind ing river, with low lying houses nes tling In abundant trees, forms a pic ture which many a painter has sought to portray on canvas.
