That was lovely. Honestly I had a perfectly beautiful time, and I think Father did, too. He wasnt stiff and polite one bit Oh, I dont mean that he waa impolite or rude. Its Just that he wasnt stiff as If I was company. And he was so happy with his stars and his telescope, and so glad to show them to me oh, I had a beautiful time, and I tcld him so ; and he looked real pleased. But Aunt Jane came for me before Id had half enough. The next morning I thought hed be different somehow, because wed had such a lovely time together the night before. But he wasnt. He Just said, Good morning, Mary," and began to read his paper. And he read his paper all through breakfast without saying another word to me.

BOOKS READ BY TRAVELERS n Transcript. The writer of the dally literary causerle In the New York Evening Post has had the curiosity to explore the collections of books provided by a steamship for the use of her passengers. He has always had the theory, he says, that In these large and luxurious vessels the second-das-s library would be likely to be more in line with Record Matftodon Tusk. The largest mastodon tusk ever discovered was found by workmen 40 feet below the surface of the earth In a gravel pit at Cincinnati weight 75 pounds; seven feet from tip to tip.

He noticed also In but not in the first, the second-classome Charlotte Bronte, Wordsworth, Tennyson and Oliver Wendell Holmes. In reply to the question what kind of books the readers asked for most, the library steward in the first class answered without hesitation : Ninety per Cent want detective stories. The library steward In the second class, on Bell-an- s the other hand, said that, among the passengers he had to do with, love Hot stories were most in demand.

Science has found a newer, better way a means as simple as Nature itself. In perfect health a natural lubricant keeps the food waste soft and moving. But when constipation exists this natural lubricant is not sufficient. Medical authorities have found that the gentle lubricating action of Nujol most closely resembles that of Natures own lubricant. As Nujol is not a laxative It cannot gripe. It is in no sense a medicine. And like pure water it is harmless and pleasant. Nujol is prescribed by physicians; used in leading hospitals.

And I cried and :rled there, with my head on the arm of the sofa, till Id made a big tear spot on the linen cover; and I wondered If it would dry up before Aunt Jane saw it, or If It would change color or leak through to the red plush underneath, or some other dreadful thing. And then,- some way, I found myself telling It all over to Father about Mary and Marie, I mean, just as if he was Mother, or some one I loved I mean, some one I loved and wasn't afraid of; for of course I love Father. Of course I do I Well, I told him everything (when I got started there was no stopping) all about how hard It was to be Mary, and how today I had tried to be Marie for Just a little while, to rest me. He Interrupted here, and wanted to know If that was why I looked so different today more as I had when I first came; and I said yes, that these were Marie hings that Mary couldnt wear. And when he asked, Why, pray? in a voice almost cross, I told him, of course, that Aunt Jane wouldnt let ue; that Mary had to wear brown serge and calfskin boots that were durable, and that would wear well. And when I told him how sorry I was about the music and such a noise a Id been making, he asked If that was Maries fault, too; and I said yes, of course that Aunt Jane didnt like to have Mary play at all, except hymns and funeral marches, and Mary didnt know any. And he grunted a queer little grunt, and said, Well, "ell, upon my soul, upon my soul! llieu he said, Go on.
