Mrs. Atherton was always well dressed, as a pretty woman should be. In her flowing draperies of blue, matching the color of her eyes, with blush roses at her breast and In her red golden hair, she looked fair and young. Strangers would have set her age at seven and twenty, perhaps; but grim old Time, for once giving no hint of his vicinity, was checking off the minutes that must soon complete her avowed seven and thirty years of life. "You knew Harvey would marry aom day. "Not when he was a stripling under twenty. You may say I needn't have consented to tfc ejnatoh. Well, all my life I had given him everything he cried for If he cried long enough, so when he wanted this new toy, after making myself nearly ill bj( opposing him, I yielded, as usual. Beside, what could I do? she added more seriously. "He was Infatuated with Helen.

A quack doctor of no social standing, swamped by debt and burdened with five daughters, would use any means to see one of them advantageously married. He of course regarded Harvey as my heir, and even then he had a fine situation.

The boy was in advance of his age; had I opposed him he might have been persuaded into a runaway match. He thought I would forgive him anything. "Im afraid women are not success-fi- ll In rearing boys. "I know, they are not. We are too indulgent, too afraid of hurting our darlings, and in the end they become our masters. Then, too, they are so accustomed to being led by a woman that they surrender to the first designing one they meet, thinking her all she seems to be. Understand, I have no. fault to find with Helen In her relation to Harvey. She is a devoted wife and mother, exemplary in all ner ways. She helps the poor and goes regularly to church. She Is moral as well, as a copy book, and has a trite saying for every emergency. She was the cornerstone of her shiftless fathers household, and Is kind enough to wish to be the entire foundation of mine." That Is where the trouble begins ? "Naturally, Phebe Tomlinson has kept my house ever since I had one to keep, and resents interference. I uphold my old servant. Helen thinks me weak, frivolous and extravagant. She has persuaded Harvey that I am a mere butterfly, unable to manage my own affairs. You know I am nothing of the kind; yet every day finds me yielding to some new encroachment.

There is writing without end in these days, but two deaths which have just occurred in England suggest that lit fame was never less a question of literary quality or more unstable than it is now. Walter Besants literary reputation rests principally upon a single novel of soriolog;cal import which fell in nicely with a movement of the times. The author enjoyed great popularity after its publication, but he was not a great writer and some of his later work lias certainly been of a commonplace kind. Robert Buchanan, who had a much smaller audience, was a virile poet, novelist and publicist, and was in some respects a very brilliant writer. But his attitude was so commonly harshly critical and resentful that he lived without the sympathy of contemporary authors, who found it convenient to speak slightingly of his and his prejudices. His recent contribution to one of the reviews, entitled "The Voice of the Hooligan, is an excellent example of his controversial style. It is a fierce arraignment of Kipling, who was defended by the self-asserti- on ft ft ft ft ft Forsaking all Others UTAH.

I thank you for your kind and charitable thought, madam." she said calmly, and with a bow left the room, leaving her conqueror to endure what was worse than the pangs of defeat the consciousness that she had not acted with the generosity which usually characterized her every action. hus-ban- self-maste- . d's ry natural growth by continually cutting off its ends the less rest its papilla, being constantly incited to excessive production. wave: s finally in its activity, decays and dies. For this reason a woman with a bald head is never or seldom seen, as the natural and very slow process of the growth of a woman's hair is not disturbed. The individual hair reaches a definite length; after gears it falls out of itself and a new hair begins to appear as soon as the papilla has had time to rest Itself thoroughly and to prepare Itself for the process of a new growth. These are the reasons which lead to the obviously valid conclusion that cutting tbe hair is rather injurious than useful. Wealth of Earl ef Caitogaa.
