THE WOODS
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH
SYLVIA.
IT WAS because the dawn was in
her eyes,
It was because the night was In her
hair,
Because I heard the forest in her
sighs,
I held her fair.
She came upon me 'neath the huddled
eaves,
She walked beside me In the maze
of men
Her sadness, sadness of a wood that
grieves,
Her smile, the sun again.
Her voice was like the whispering of
trees.
Her laughter like the tinkle of a
rill ;
Her cheeks blushed roses, roses such
as these
Upon the hill.
She was a river In a thirsty land,
A changeless star In midnight skies
to shine
Her touch, to walk with Nature hand-
ln-hand
And she was mine, was mine.
So leave me In the wood a little
while;
Here where the grass Is greenest
let me He.
The sun shall bring me once again
her smile,
The wind her sigh.
Here only do we seem no more apart,
In verdant ways beneuth the skies
of blue;
The stirring earth will seem a beat
ing heart.
The heart, the heart I knew.
Once only she could bring the forest
near,
In those old days amid the panting
crowd,
Once only she could make the stars
. appear
Beyond the cloud.
So now the forest that her soul ex
pressed To my own soul is her Interpreter
In ev'ry wind that wanders east or
west
I hear but her, but her I

All kind things must be done on their
own account, and for their own sake, and
without the least reference to any grati
tude. THE DAINTY HOME TABLE.
SINCE linen has been almost prohib
itive In price and the linen In our
chests has been cherished for state oc
casions, the little Japanese sets, cloths
and napkins, which make no pretense
of being anything more than cotton
(hut which have such pretty artistic
designs, In good colors) have become
very populnr.
The well-kept dining tuble never
looks better than when laid with pret
ty dollies, which most women enjoy
making lu their leisure moments.
The old fashion of loading the table
with all sorts of good things has
passed. We still have the desire to
be well fed but with more comfort
and greater heulth.
A dainty centerpiece of flowers or
a small plnnt always adds to the ap
pearance of any tuble. Flowers need
not be of the choice hot house vari
ety, for a bunch of beautiful clover
Is a thing of beauty and costs noth
ing. Pretty little ferns may be taken up
In the woods, planted In small pots
and used for a table ornament.
The present fashion returns to the
old wny to serving desserts and sal
ads at the tuble, letting each guest
help himself to the amount he de
sires. This Is both convenient and
economical as It eliminates leftovers.

1 THE GIRL ON THE JOB
s How to Succeed How to Get S
Ahead How to Make Good s
By JESSIE ROBERTS 1
fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin
THE HOTEL WORKER.
THE hotel worker gets her board
and usually her lodging, as well
as her salury. The salaries run from
$50 to $150 a month. Hotel positions
are Interesting and Important. A girl
must have intelligence, a good pres
ence, good manners, and a level head.
She has responsibilities, and she ought
to be a Judge of human nature. The
room clerk must have a good memory,
so that even with a large clientele she
will remember the different guests who
are making her hotel their home, and
she should be able to size up applicants
for rooms without hesitation.
The desk clerk comes into direct
contact with the guests. She Is sta
tioned at the desk In the nmln lobby,
and must be ready to answer all sorts
of questions regarding not only the ho
tel, but the city. She must he smart
In appearance, have tact, courtesy and
unfailing good humor.
The floor clerk accepts packages, an
swers phone calls, pays for C. O. D.
parcels. She often does stenography
for guests. She receives, sorts and de
livers the mail for her floor. And she,
too, answers questions.
Then there are the restaurant posi
tions, the cufe cashier, the food check
er, the waitress. All these positions
are good ones.
Moreover, there are the summer ho
tels, where a girl gets room, board and
salary, varying according to the type
of hotel. Many college women help
themselves through college in tills way.
For the ambitious girl without defi
nite training hotel work Is to be rec
ommended as an excellent way to earn
an Independent living.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"CANARD,"
N ENGLISlTThe word "ca
nard" Is used to signify a fab
I
ricated, sensational story
something made up "out of the
whole cloth," a verbal bomb
usually sprung at the last mo
ment so that there will not be
time successfully to contradict
It. But "cunurd," in French,
means a duck. There doesn't
appear to be much connection be
tween the two but there Is. In
fact the whole thing goes back
to ducks, twenty of them.
Noibert Cornellssen, a French
man who lived during the Inst
century, determined to experi
ment with the credulity of the
public and reported to the news
papers that he hud a flock of
ducks, twoscore In number, of
which he took one, cut It into
small pieces and threw the bits
to the other nineteen, which de
voured them ravenously, Then,
scarcely giving the ducks time
to get hungry, Cornellssen re-
pented the experiment and was t
once more successful, "In an
amuzliigly short space of time,"
he declared, "the finck was re
duced to a single duck, which
bad eaten his nineteen broth
ers." Scientists and naturalists
argued about the mutter for
some days through the columns
of the 1'arlslnn papers. Then
Cornellssen confessed that the
whole thing was a hoax. There
hud never even been a flock of
ducks, Just the one that he kept
for purposes of exhibition. But
flie report hnd gained so much
publicity that the plirasn "duck
story" was Implanted In French
slung, much ns "fish story" Is an
accepted colloquialism In Kng
llslu "Cunnrd" became synony
mous with hoax and, Instead of
being translated, the word wus
' adopted bodily Into English In
Its present sense.
