and remedy for cracking knees. I
am a girl seventeen years old and
I am much embarrassed. S. A. C.
Answer It is no rare thing fora
girl of your age that is the crack
ing. The embarrassment is rare
nowadays. . In most cases this is
caused by. flabblness of. the tendons
about the joint, and in a few cases
it is the result -of thickening or
roughening -of, tendon- sheaths from
some, old inflammation.- It is a very
serious .ailment for a burglar. The
remedy is to give your French heels

A fountain and a shrme

And all the flowers were mine.
Ah. dream too bright to last!
Ah, starry hopo that didst arise
But to bo overcast!

To the sands upon the shore)
Shall bloom the thunder-blasted tree,

And all my nightly dreams
Are where thy dark eye glances,
And where thy footstep gleams
In what ethereal dances,
By- what eternal streams.
