Marforieand the Moon By Edith S. Speed

Copyright. 1310. by Associated Literary Press "It is no use asking mother. She will not give her consent," waispered Harjorie as they stood together in the summer house. "She Insists that I wait at least eight years before I marry." Philip Drayton smiled dovn at her earnest little face. "Cut your mother "was only twenty when she was married," he said. "Yes, I know, PhH; but she says I am too youn." "Then we shall hare to el )pe." "Elope! Mother would never forgive me." "Oh, yes she would; she vould be angry for a little while; but would soon make up. I cat wait eight years for a home and you, Marjorie," he I pleaded. "Leave It to me and everything will be all right" - "But, Phil, is there no other way?" "I am afraid not," he answered. "I will have my boat at the landing to- . morrow night and we will cross the bay to Willow Point, where the minister will marry us." , "Oh, won't it be romantic!" said Marjorie. "It will be moonlight and I will wear my white dress and my white hat with the pink roses that you

like so well." ; The moonlight shining through the vines brought out the gold lights In the girl'3 pretty hair. On the hand that lay in Phil's sparkled a little ring. He reverently kissed her. "I wish your mother could attend your wedding," he continued after a silence,. "but she will not consent, and eight years Is too long to wait." I All the next day Marjorie Brant Sl& cl3 slid worked. Upstairs, on her bed, lay the white dress and white hut. In the closet was the suit case w'.th her dainty belongings, packed or the first time without her mother's supervision. Now and then she ran up and tried on the hat, laughing at herself In the mirror and picturing Phil's face when he should see her. "If you are going upstairs again," her mother called from the kitchenf "will you close the windows? There Is a cloud In the west, which means ;irind." But Marjorie, excitedly combing out her curls In preparation for the wedr Sing coiffure, forgot the injunction until the flapping of the curtains brought iter out of her dreams. "Did you shut Cie windows?" her 'mother called to her. . . "No, but I will," answered the girl. ; Marjorie could hear the roar of the wind and the lashing of the waves, nd knew that they could not cross the bay that night. She slowly continued her dressing, wondering how :hey would get to Willow Point She helped her mother with dinner, iut ate little. "Don't you feel well?" asked her lather. "I am all right, but I am not hungry," she replied. Marjorie was to meet Phil at eight 3'clock. At 7:30 she "went upstairs. n the darkness she pressed her face igalnst the window. She could see nothing; the moon was hidden behind ihe clouds. Wrappings a shawl about her, she stealthily descended the stairs and went out by the side door. Her light figure bent to the wind as she sped iown the path. "Phil." she called softly. ; Then she felt his arms about her. ."Where la your hat?" he asked. "We can't go In a boat; so we will drive. I pave brought blankets; you won't be (cold." ! Marjor'e slipped out of his arms, j "I haven't any bag. I am not going, hil." ? "Not going!" he exclaimed. "Why loot?" "Oh, I couldn't go on such a night iWho ever beard of running away and getting married on a dark night?" I "What has the weather to do with tour happiness?" he asked gently. Dqp't you love me, Marjorie?" j "Yes," she whispered, then faltering57 continued. "It was all going to be 10 beautiful, the moonlight and the Water and now there Isn't any moon. When it grew so dark and windy, I felt that even the elements -xe igalnst us and I was not doing (he rieht thing running away from parRECEIVED BY MRS. MADISON Recollections of "Drawing-Room" Held by the Wife of the Second President. When It became known that Mrs. Madison Intended to hold a reception It was called a "drawing-room" by everybody, ancTthe White House wa3 known as the "Palace," or. less frequently, as the "Great House," for the names of things were still English. Many fervent prayers were offered up for fair weather for this night, for most of the fuests would have far to go, and on a bad night a chariot might fet stalled. Alas! it rained, and the carriages drew up at the White House door all spattered Ith mud, and the splendor of the liveried black coachmen and footmen was sadly marred. Pne or two chariots broke down in a mud-hole near the White House gates, Which was one of the worst places in Pennsylvania avenue, but the occubmnts were carried on by passing friends. The portico of the house had cot yet been erected, but the guests Minted at the stone steps, and were

ents who have been so kind; so 1 came out to tell you. Oh. Phil," she sobbed. "I don't know what to do." "My poor little girl," he said. "1 don't believe I. should run away with you. I am going into the house to ak your father and mother- to let mo marry you." "Phil." "I can't go home without knowing something certain. Come." As the two young people entered the sitting room Marjorie's father and mother stared at them in astonishment. The girl, cold and wind blown, slipped into a chair. Phil walked up to the table. "Sit down, won't you?" asked Mr. Brant, hesitating, as he looked at the young man's stern face. "No," said Phil. "I'll stand. Marjorie and I were going to run away." "Run away!" exclaimed Mrs. Brant and her husband's fist came down on the table heavily. But as Phil told of his love, the older man gazed at him intentlv, visions of his own youth and courtship stirring him deeply. When Phil had finished he said: "I understand that if it had not been windy tonight and Marjorie had not thought it was wrong you would have run away?" "I think so." "And what then?" The young man's gaze met that of the older man's squarely. "I should have taken care of her and kept her safe. I love her." He was very earnest The father seemed stirred by his uprightness and

he turned to his wife. "Well, mother?" "It Is out of the question," she flared. "Marjorie is only twenty. I shall not let her get married for eight years." "Oh, mother!" "Yes, and -by then. Marjorie, you will know your own mind." "I do know it," pleaded the girl. "You were married when you v.ere twenty." "Yes; but I was older. You are only a child. Now you run up to your room." With a despairing glance at Phil, who stood looking stern and determined, she left the room. Her mother turned to the young man. "I thought when I consented to the engagement that you would be satisfied. Now you are trying to coax the child to run away." "I might have taken her." was Phil's answer. The father, noting the set mouth of the young man, perceived the necessity of a compromise. "Perhaps we had better talk it over, mother," he said. "No," was the' firm response. "1 shall not let Marjorie marry until she Is twenty-eight That is young enough." "But we were married when we were young and have been happy." "What we did has nothing to do with Marjorie. It is no good your taking their part; I shall not give my consent." Her husband saw that It was useless to argue, and held out his hand to Phil. "I guess we shall have to do what mother thinks best After all, she Is right" He accompanied Phil to the door. The wind had abated and through the scurry of clouds the moon shone brightly. The young man stood looking at it for a moment then stiffly said: "Good-by," and went down the path, The horse's hoofs had died away in the distance when the father returned to the sitting rocm. As Phil drove slowly homeward, he moodily gazed out upon the night The vagrant wind caressed his cheek and the salt air filled his nostrils. The little white spire of the church In Willow Point silently beckoned to him in the moonlight Suddenly his horse reared and came to a sudden' stop. "Marjorie!" he exclaimed as the girl stepped to the side of the carriage. , She laughed nervously, as she climbed In beside him. "Quick!" she urged. "Here is my bag. They are arguing in the sitting room. I took the short cut across the lots. They will not discover that I am gone for awhile, and, oh, Phil, I climbed down the grape arbor!" He urged the horse to a run with one hand while with the other he tucked the blanket around her. "I can't believe it!" he said as she nestled close to him. "I can't believe that you are really here." . "Well," said the girl, "father was al- ( most ready to give In tnd mother will J soon make up, she always does, and I wasn't going to wait until I was twenty-eight to get married, Phil especially after I looked out of my window and saw that glorious moon our moon."

COLORS OF

Transposition From One Key to Another Changes Its' Shade. In Well-Arranged Compositions in F Minor One Can Always Note Strange Purple Tone That Imparts Sad Aspect to Piece. Chicago. Did you ever notice a distinct odor of violet when a certain girl talks to you through the tele: phone? And did you know that the vowel sounds, the days of the week and the months of the year all fairly blossom with colors of their own? And did you know that the transposition of a melody from one key to another invariably changes its color? About forty Chicagoans learned all of these facts in the course of a luncheon at the Cliff Dwellers' club, when Loui3 W. Wilson, an instructor at the Art Institute, and other scientists discussed association of sight and sound. "In a well-arranged composition in F minor," said Mr. Wilson, "oue can always note the strange and yet triumphantly grand aspect to the piece, contrasting with the warm, sunny green of A major or the dominant violet night effect so intensely noticeable In that favorite key of all musicians and painters, E flat major." After giving a vivid description of a Scotch bagpiper reading scales from his plaid ki'tie hung before him, the speaker explained that the tru-? relation of sound and color could not be readily explained because of the faulty

Wizard Opened Any Vault

No Bank Safe Combination Had Any Terrors for Texan Depended on Touch and Hearing. San Antonio, Tex. Although George P. Assman, the famous safe wizard, who died a few days ago at Austin, Tex., possessed knowledge that might have tempted a less honest man to enrich himself at the expense of others, he lived and died a relatively poor man. Throughout his life he demonstrated that there was no safe lock or combination that could withstand him and this without using the rude methods of the safeblower. In opening a safe to which the combination had been forgotten or in which the mechanism of the lock had gone wrong, Assman never depended on rules or his sight, touch and hearing supplying him invariably with the key. This remarkable fact he demonstrated many times. His method in opening a combination lock seemed extremely simple. Sitting before the safe or vault he would turn the knob until the lock would act. It was his boast that he needed no tools to open any safe in the country as long as no tools had been used in closing It. His services were in constant demand all over the south and southwest. On one occasion the gTeat vault of the New Orleans subtreasury could not be opened for the reason that a part of its lock mechanism had failed. After making every effort to open it the treasury officials finally sent for Assman, who succeeded in opening it In a very short time. P.efore Assman left the vault, he asked as to his compensation, which he thought should amount to $1,500. This sum, however, was flatly refused him, and without saying another word the safe wizard swung the huge door back into place, leaving the officials to gape in amazement Since there was no one to open the door, Assman was arrested shortly afterward for interfering with the property of the government The case was tried as soon as this

Campaign cf Education . Begun in Austria With View of Reducing Food Values. , Vienna. With the object of reducing the cost of food the ministry of agriculture has begun a campaign of education among the farmers and peasantry to demonstrate the Importance to them of studying the needs of city consumers and of more widely adopting intensive methods of cultivation. Farmers are urged to abandon unprofitable crops and to substitute those that are remunerative, to try to improve the quality and increase the quantity of cattle raised and generally to adopt modern scientific methods. It Is proposed by the government to grant small loans to farmers to help them obtain moaern machinery. While approving the spirit of the government's efforts, practical politicians advocate measures that are likely to proiuce more definite and Immediate re

Farm Lectures in Prison

Inmates Deeply Interested In Agriculture, and System May Be Adopted Elsewhere. New York.-rA course of lectures on ngricalture delivered In the Tombs prison may seem an odd combination, but it is being tried and Is pronounced a decided success by the prison authorities. All the prisoners in the institution heard the first lecture of the seri?s and were much interested In it. The lecturer was George E. Manchester, a practical farmer of WInsted, Conn. He pointed the way for those who wish to turn from their old ways and go "back to the soil" after their release. Not long ago Rev. Charles P. Tinker cf the Protestant Episcopal City mission, a regular visitor at the Tombs, decided that he could interest the sults. These include the removal of the present prohibition for the Importation of cattle and meat from the I'.alkan states, and the taking of legislative action against the agrarian food trusts.

"I'm fairly certain that Whistler won't last," Tesumed the lecturer, "and I can say the medieval painters are far inferior to the ancient Greeks, because the latter understood the col or music harmony. I have assumed nothing arbitrarily, but can explair. why each key is of a certain color.

"A known impossibility to accomplish a required condition tends to de crease the subject's total results. "Fatigue accompanying work Is not so great when the subject Is working under the direct stimulus of a definite aim, notwithstanding the fact that he has at the same time produced an increase in his amount of work." Man's capacity for work can be computed approximately; and if ergograph tests were complete and comprehensive enough, there is little doubt that a phychologist could give a man an Idea of the amount of work he could do before he would suffer a mental breakdown. Dr. Edward Ledholtz, demonstrator of medicine at the university, said the ergograph Is being used in classroom work because it is thought soon it will be important in clinical diagnosis of certain kinds of diseases caused by overexertion.

The plan was approved by the department of correction and may be adopted in prisons and reform institutions throughout the country. The lecturer. In his introductory address, told the men of the coming revival of farming and laid particular stress upon the fact that the demand for farm labor Is so great now that so long as a man does his work honestly the farmers do not ask about his past. At the conclusion of the lecture there was a general discussion. The prisoners asked the lecturer many questions and one of them made a long speech on farming in the west. Ever Present.

ARE LABOR SAVERS KEEP ON HAND A SUPPLY OF JAPANESE NAPKINS. Especially During the Summer Are They Useful in a Variety of Ways Have a Sanitary Value Sometimes Overlooked. Young" girls who are up to date in their ideas should not overlook the advisability of keeping on hand a supply of Japanese napkins, for their uses as labor savers are many, and also as preservers of the family health. During the summer months young girls especially are great instigators 2f picnics. Then the pile of Japanese napkins should be quickly sought for cleanly and dainty bits of paper in which to wrap up sandwiches, cakes, pie and all the good things that help to make a picnic jolly. When they have performed their service they can be thrown away, not being sufficiently valuable to carry home and to burden the family wash tub. Not only at picnics, but at veranda tea sprees after tennis and at informal luncheons at home should Jap2nese napkins be employed Instead of fine linen. The modern young girl has begtm to feel keenly that it is a necessity to adopt every possible' means to save labor, and to this end she uses as freely as she can the little napkins from the land of the rising sun. The most pronounced present use Df these articles is in case of illness, especially those that can be transmitted from one member of the family to another. Pneumonia, tonsilitls, tuberculosis and even the ordinary cold are now looked on as evils from which girls, as well as all other sane mortals should protect themselves by every known device. To use the handkerchiefs belonging to the regular wardrobe during the time of a severe cold and then put them in with the wash on Monday is to expose the family, and particularly the laundress, to the same discomforting malady. In serious cases of illness, pneumonia among' them, it Is a truly lamentable fact that handkerchiefs, napkins and towels are often used for the relief of the Invalid which afterward arc cleaned in the laundry. The use of the Japanese napkins, or handkerchiefs, as they may' then be called, does away with this too frequent mode of spreading contagion. They serve the invalid as well as linen., and when they are no longer required they should be burned. . The very smooth sorts are chosen for use in sickness, while those of crinkled, crepelike surfaces are preferred when attractiveness alone is desired. At most they cost about fifty cents a thousand. v TO DECORATE THE LAMPSHADE By the Use of Water Colors Very Pretty Effects May Be Attained Even by the Amateur. Lampshade decoration Is not necessarily reserved for the artist; It may be accomplished by the merest dabbler jx water colors. Given a plain, well-covered shade and some conventional design to fit it (or one that can be made to fit), a pencil and some of the transfer paper that comeswlll soon convey the design to the shade. An outline is enough, because an ordinary sense of color and knowledge of flowers will help in the painting process. Tall iris stalks and blooms, cattails with their leaves or the conventional Tudor rose shaped for each section of the shade will, any one, prove effective In water color and probably bring the shade Into harmony with the room. DAINTY LACE WAIST. This new and attractive model Is of fine white lace trimmed underneath jft ith a band of trimmed moussellne de oie in cashmere, or parsley colorings.

SMART MADE UP. IN GREEN

Linen Probably the Best Material, for This Picturesque Summer Costume. This smart style would look exceedingly well carried out in lichen green linen. The skirt is quite narrowround the foot, and Is trimmed at each side by a straight panel, which is braided at the lower part. . The coat has a tight-fitting back and semi-fitting Iront, which fastens on the left shoulder and downwards in a slant to the right side; the lower part of left side Is also cut in a slant; braided material fills up the space be tween; braided buttons trim the edges, while the sleeves and top of coat are trimmed to match. Hat of crinoline, trimmed with figured tulle. Maerials required: Seven yards linen 44 Inches wide. 11 buttons, one dozen yards braid. New in Parasols. This summer we are to use the little Chantilly lace marquise parasols, the doll-like affairs with which our pretty ancestresses used to screen their faces. TO BEAUTIFY THE BEDROOM Good Taste and Careful Selection Can Be Made to Supplement Thin Pocketfcock. With $10 and time to look through the shops the average womancan furnish a bedroom with finishings so it will be attractive. A prospective purchaser will discover that green striped seersucker for hangings, bedspread's, etc., is smart looking and Inexpensive. Of such material I have in mind a piece with fine stripe. The color is pale, the green line intersected by one of tan. The fact that this washes Is a point in favor, and that no ironing is required Is another virtue at a season when laundresses are sometimes hard to find. Moreover, this fabric does not crumple, and the many times it is placed on and removed from a bed will not muss it. Made from this goods one bed cover I saw recently had sides and ends hanging over. Put around this, so it lay on the edge of the mattress, was a nine-inch band of linen, the same shade as the green In the seersucker. This was repeated in the bolster, and on the table and bureau covers, as well as on the drapery curtains which hung straight to the sill. The latter were run on small brass rods which were concealed by the hems. Such a set for a room is not difficult to make, nor" does it take long if a sewing machine is used. For the room of a young girl nothing is more charming than w hite muslin treated In similar fashion with bands of flowered muslin. Any of these wash, look cool and aro easily kept fresh. Unbleached cotton makes satisfactory curtains and covers, although I am aware it may not sound as if it would. To make a desirable effect the muslin must be used in a room which has a positive color on the wall that Is, ted, blue, green or yellow must be sharply in evidence. Let the curtains in such room hang to the sill, having the edges trimmed with small ball fringe. The bed cover needs the same finish, as does any other piece. This is lovely, and, of course, will wear for years. Helen Howe, la Washington Star. A Dainty Centerpiece. Last year in June a hostess living in a delightful country place had this unique centerpiece at a luncheon which she gave for some of her city friends. She had an enormous straw hat tied as a basket filled with roses. It was held by a big bow of gauze ribbon. At each place small baskets filled with unhulled strawberries rested on a doily of grape leaves. To the handle was a bow of pink gauze ribbon, with the name card pinned to it with a dainty imitation coral stock pin; just one pink rose rested on the handle. It was all very simple, but the rustic effect was lovely. Harm of Tight Collars. Nothing will make the throat and, neck lose their roundness and whiteness so quickly as wearing tight collars, for they partly stop the circulation and starve or paralyze the tissues, and flabbiness and a generally yellow appearance are inevitable. Nourishment is as necessary to the skin as to the body, and the throat must not be starved if the woman expects to preserve a youthful appearance.
