Come with me ! I come with me!" sang a little brook, one fine sunny morning. "Come with me! Come with me! I'll show you many a wonder many a sight!" "Very well," answered a buttercup petal that had hung for a day right over the bright surface of the brook. "Very well, I'll cornel" "Take me I Take me!" said a shin ing green leaf. "I'd like to go on a Journey." So the tiny buttercup petal and the blight green leaf dropped Into the brook and were caught by the current and taken on a long, long Journey. And all the time they traveled, th brook sang to them and explained the things they saw on the way. At first they went on through the meadow that was not so wonderful, though the buttercup petal was glad Indeed to see the flowers at the other end of the meadow. She had sniffed their fragrance many a time before, but never had she seen them. Then they Jumped over a handful of rocks and raced pell-mell through "a narrow valley. "Why do you hurry so fast?" asked the buttercup petal breathlessly. "I like to see what we are passing. Never before have I seen such rocks let's stop and look at them." "Come with me! Come with me!" sang the brook, in reply. "Come with me; do not stop for rock-gasingl There are greater wonders than these rocks. Careful! Do not tarrv!" aha shouted, as she saw that the green leaf was nearly caught fast in soma rushes at the side of the water. "Those rushes reach out when I go swiftly and try to pull me back. See how they beckon? But we must not stay! Come with me! LCrk where I am taking you!" Ths buttercuD netal and th. leaf looked, but before they could no- wca a inmg, uie brook had plunged them Into darkness black darkness! "Where are we?" exclaimed the petal and the leaf. "Are we lost V "No. Indeed." laua-hed th hmnir f only wanted to show you this cave. iawsi wnen you are used to the dark ness, you can see beautiful columna I made those. Drop, by drop I left some of my Urns here, and, in the years I havs been working, I have built up those shining columns. Have I not bean busy? Before they, conld notice a thing, the brook had plunged them into darkness black darkness! ' Nor is that all I have done. Whilt I am making ths columns. I am also gathering up minerals minerals that I can give back to the flowers in the meadows that I will pass after leaving here. Oh, I am busy, very, very busy busy all the livelong day!" And before the buttercup petal and the leaf could get their breath and an swer back, that busy little brook dashed out Into the sunshine again. Out into ths sunshine, over rocks and pebbles and into another meadow. And there the petal and the leaf got caught on ths mossy bank, and there they left ths brook. But, as long as they lived, they could hear the brook singingsinging on Its wsy to ths great" river and to ths sea (Tomorrow Willy Wood-Rat) .W!n.5Tulr or ttlB aaveruatra please intlon Th JoBTtiel. -Aa.) box omoi bow on:.

"Swap Party" Is PlaaasdU Have yon Beauty Chat Air Baths for Hair. IT IS more difficult to keep tin hair in good condition In the summer than during the winter. In the warmer months of the year there is more duat In the air. Women spend a large percentage of their time in the open air where there are winds and hot rays from ths sun to test the quality of its color and fiber. But if It is a greater task to keep the hair in condition during the sum mer, it is also possible to improve its texture and strengthen it then. Clean liness is the first essential to the growth of luxuriant haTr. Hair, like the body from which it springs, tV. rives on fresh air. It is a fine thing to shampoo the head and then permit the hair to dry naturally In the pure air to bs found only outdoors or in front of an open window. The air has clean ing qualities that are all its own. They Invigorate and promote ths health, which makes it beautiful. But the very process I suggest for drying the hair, there is a possibility that it will be Injured under narrriful conditions. The sun has a tendency to bleach. Sometimes, especially at the seashore you will see women whose hair has been bleached in this way. Unfortunately it is not uniformly bleached and makes a miserable ap pearance. Bear this In mind when, you dry your hair outdoors or at an open window. Too much sun la liable to dissipate Its color. But taks advantage of the warm months to give your hair frequent sun baths. They will have an appreciable effect on its appes ranee and encourage growth. Women motor more In ths summer than any other season. Limousines are deserted for topless road cara. Tennis, golf and other games keep women out of doors. In each Instance the hair is under a greater tesa than In the drawing room. The necessity for shampooipg becomes more frequent If ths scalp is to be kept free from harmful accumulations that retard growth and reduce strength. The hair derives its nourishment from the scalp and each washing removes a certain amount of nutriment. With the oily substances removed, It Is difficult to arrange a graceful coiffure. When the natural oils are limited In quantity, it often become necessary to apply some thing of this sort when the head is shampooed at frequent intervals. The hair should be given amp;i pro tection in the summer.

THOROUGHBRED A m s r 1 o a n w omen are prone to follow the path of leaat reaistsnce when It comes to pledging themselves occasionally to mors ex pensive outlays than they can afford. It is so dreadful to have to explain to Mrs. G. that you really cannot af ford to take two seats next to hers at ths opera, or that a street car will do for you, when she stands ready to step Into a taxicab. An English noblewoman or an Ital ian countess would not hesitate for a minute to tell you that she was too poor if she was to Indulge in an extravagance, and a Mrs. Harrlman would not be alow to tell you that she never pays more than such and such a price for a hat and I think it la $6. It is not aristocratic, either In the literal or figurative sense, to disre gard the cost of things, and neither titled nor moneyed aristocrats do. It Is not high minded to be driven by a sense of embarrassment into ex travagance. Rout ths tawdry little demon of pride In your bosom by saying you cannot afford a thing when you can not. Then don't.

They are certainly comfortable motor accessories. A veil adds to the comfort of any woman who is travel ing, and it is a good thing j have around at all times. Among the young girls who are devo tees of tennis there are many who play the game in the sun without wearing hats to protect their Iialr and com plexions. There Is no good reason why complexions and hair, should be jeop ardized or ruined to play a game of tennis. Play to your heart's content, but do not permit the game to have such an effect on your appearance that It will give you a heartache when you look at your hair and complexion. And, if you spend the summer at a water ing place, 4ake your daily dip, but pro tect your hair from the effects . of water, wind and gun. Summer brings an opportunity to make your hair beautiful and luxuri ant, but it also presents a chance to ruin it. Try the air bath. It will improve the appearance apd quclJty of your hair.
