Therefore, aha la aura that any girt ran make flnh flies. "You don't need any specialised knowledge to take tip artificial fly making," ahe aasured me one after noon when I vlalted the little work aliop where ahe makea her (Ilea, "and you don't need any capital. All you need la patience, and a desire to do the work well. Yet the business U very specialized and extremely well paying." . This girl learned Iter business, flrat by examining her father's fishing tackle; and, second, by consulting public library books on fly making. Dissecting one of her father's flies, sht found that Its conat ruction was ijulte simple. Conat rurtlng these lures for fishes la one of the best occupations for the girl who Uvea In a town where Ashing la popular. She needs only to have a willing mind and skillful fingers. She has none of the difficulties of the girl who sells vegetables or eggs, neither must aha take ber wares Into a targe rlty to dtspoae of them. Her market la right In her own fishing vil lage, and It la practically sure to be a good one. Moat every fishing vil lage, no matter how small, boaata a sporting goods atore, and of course It peclalty la fishing equipment. The girl fly maker can sell her handiwork to this store, and can. In many cnaes, aocure a yearly contract for her wares. She can sell her files di rect to the sportsmen, too; and there will be a ready aale among the flalier men If ahe sella them better files than they usually get, perhaps at slightly 'ower prices. Finding a market will not bother the girl fly maker who can construct a fly so luacloua and lifelike that It i 111 make any flsh rtak his Ufa. (. 1114. Wnliri NiwiitMr Ualoa.)

He had not gone ten atepa when the ragged newsboy at the corner stand ran up to him. It waa to seize one arm gently and with Infinite eager tenderness lead the unfortunate across a narrow alley. There waa a little breathing spot of a park a square further on. It waa here that Moore spent a portion of hla day, usually surrounded by the poor children from the near tenements. In order to reach the park Moore had to cross a broad esplanade. At lta Inner edge a young girl of eighteen kept a cheap flower stand.

Only a soft pressure of the guiding hand, and then a flower, Finally, for a week Ceclle missed her friend. She grew pale and thin and distressed. She watched from her little booth hourly, Moore was gone, and with him her sole Interest In life, the sunshine, heaven! There came to her the woman In charge of the little hotel one day. She pluced a rouleuu of gold pieces upon the counter of the flower stand, "See, Ceclle," she said, softly, "the By Arthur Brisbane A WHITE HOUSE BREAKFAST. HEALTY AND WISE. AMERICA ON WHEELS.

One, Thom as Daniel, was born in 1924, hi brother, James, waa born in 1925, two houra and fifty-five minutes after his older brother. There is a new plan for teach ing little boys how to grow up. This is the "Knighthood" plan, to teach little boya chivalry and guide them away from evil. It's a good plan, presumably, but it ia possible to overdo schemes and plans for showing boya how to act and think. They need some time in which to think exactly in their own way. It ia the thinking that a boy doea on hla own account and of his own free will that counts. Little Newton, called a dull boy, was thinking out the law of gravi tation. Napoleon, called a sulky boy at his military school, was making plana that surprised his surgeon In Ixmdon. He Imde me bring you the money, and euch day you are to take your daintiest blossoms to the little ones In the park. He left the word, too.

She clasped the hand of the kindly dame, kneeling. Tfeea she stood transfixed as In a dream. The kiss from him! A coro net seemed to wreath her brown. She was aroused only as she heard some one address the departing messenger. "The maestro la gone, I hear" was uttered. "Yea," came the answer, "but to re turn to the spot where loving heart si made of life a paradise. We pray for him that his sight may be restored, aa he hopes." "Ah, Indeed, may heaven be mer ciful to return him to see bla grand matrptece In the aulon " "He said not."

Ines Hardin, the Mississippi girl chosen aa the healthiest girl in the country, ia deacrlbed as a bundle of sunshine. Health and sunshine go together. The young girl is a bundle of common sense also, and says "I'll marry when I'm thirty. Not un til then." Some healthy boy may change her mind, but she would be wue to stick to her plan. Healthy mothers have their best babies after thrity, and in fact iter thirty-five. Plato knew it, . mora than 2,000 yeara ago. We know that America rules the world in automobile use and pro duction, having more automobiles than all the rest of the world combined, with millions of ma chines to apare. How much do we ride? This country in 1924 manufac tured 45 million tires. Allowing an average mileage of 6,000 miles, which is Tow, and dividing by four, you find that tires enough were made in one year for more than sixty-aeven and a half billion miles travel twenty-aeven hun dred thousand tiraea around the earth. One scientist tells others that the potato vine la deadly to to bacco and tomato plants, to both of which the potato is related. The aap from the ordinary potato plant will kill the two other plants. Combat and destruction extend, you see, from proud man at the top of creation all the way down to the abode of the potato bug. Tobacco men rejoice, saying, "You have abused our tobacco, and now it's your highly moral potato that does the poisoning." The potato farmer answers, "Po tatoes may destroy tobacco plants. But remember that pigs destroy rattlesnakes, yet pigs are less poi sonous than rattlesnakes." The Interesting thing is the proof that in the vegetable world there are fights as bitter as in the world of what we are pleased to call "intelligent thought." Imploring the flower fairies to tell the mystery. She hid her hand in her bosom, blushing ,88 though to shut away the sight of a telltale.

He walked erect, his bearing that of some knight, gladsome, In rhapsody with life and all Its message. A new glory shons from the noble face, sightless no longer. Straight up to the palpi tating Ceclle he advanced, both hands extended. And there he stood, silent, motionless, while lie gazed into the very aoul of the lovely girl. "Ceclle 1 Ceclle!" he said softly at length "to see you first, my dream, my thought reality 1 Come I am yours, you are mine." Her hand went tremulously to her lips. In mute signal she motioned that she was dumb. "I knew It not until the day I went away," he said, the more fervently en circling her dear hand.

I seldom look at an kles, bein' prudent more or less but when we're forced to see 'em, then we ain't to blame, I guess. I hate to see a tailored gal set out upon a tr'p, when there's every indication that her snaps haa lost their grip, though galoshes might be graceful even carry an ap peal, if they didn't sag down, ornery-like, and loaf around the heel. I don't enjoy my privelege of actin' like a spy, when I need to elevate my chin, and let folks ketch my eye. And still, there's urgent rea sons which command a feller's view like the innocent attrac tion to a comely ladies' shoe. I couldn't think of nothin' that improves the searchin' mind, liko c'ancin' at the beauties of a noble woman-kind; and while there's laws of comfort that we hardly dare forget, I never liked galoshes, and I wouldn't have a sett. .
