"Yes, I know; hut I do so hate to make a fuss." Delia shrugged her shoulders and Save the celery slv wan washing an sngry shake in the water. That afternoon when Helen went rmt. on some errands, just as she turned the corner there was a startling, crashing noise beside her. George Barrett dashed by on roller skates, so Close that it was a deliberate intent to frighten her. As she gave a nervous

start, he laughed a mocking, insolent j

augh and dashed on. Helen was furious. There was nothing that made her quite so angry as to be startled. And whenever he saw

her this boy seemed to take a fiendish glee in dashing up behind her with j

ill the clattering, terrifying noise that roller skates can make. HELEN IS RESOLVED. And now Helen turned hack determinedly. She would put a stop to this fit once. She had tolerated just about enough from that hoy. "Did you forget something, ma'am?" asked Delia. "No, I've come hack to settle that boy. He dashed up behind me down there just to see me start. He's always doing that. And you know what a racket those roller skates make. I'm going to write a note to his mother and "you're going to take it to her right now." "Sure I will," said Delia with conviction. She had long wanted to get even with that Barrett "limb." Helen was already at her desk writing rapidly: My Dear .Mrs. Barrett: Will you kindly see that your boy does not again ring my doorbell and run away, as he has done repeatedly in the last two weeks? And also that he does not dash up behind me on roller skates for the deliberate purpose of seeing me start? Also the noise he makes skating up and down the halls is most annoying.

There wTe too many "also's" but she would not stop to rewrite it. for fear her courage would fail and she would not tend it at all. "Now Delia." blotting and sealing i! rapidly.

DIO CHILD WAKE OP CROSS OR FEVERISH?

Look, Mother! If Tongue isj Coated Give "California" j Syrup of Figs. Mother! Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign its little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once. When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad. throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, a gentle liver and bowel cleansing should always be the first treatment, given. Nothing equals "California Syrup of Figs" for children's ills; 'give a teappoonful. and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system, and you have a well and playful child again. All children love this harmless, delicious "fruit laxative." and It never fails to effect a good "inside" cleansing. Directions for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups are plainly on the bottle. Keep it handy in your home. A little given today saves a sick child tomorrow, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," then look and pee that it is made by the "California Fig Syrup Company." Counterfeits are being sold here. Don't be fooled!

Time by the heard; for the stir and the strife of life; for red blood and love; for the colors and flowers and lia when Helen began walking nervously up and down the room. What would Mrs. Barrett do? Would she send a note back by Delia or would she telephone or would she ignore it altogether. SHOULD SHE HAVE WRITTEN. And had her letter been too curt? Now that it was gone, Helen, woman like, began to wonder if she should .iave sent it. She tried to remember word for word what she had written. She wished now she had kept the note and thought about it a little more. How-

was she always doing things on the impulse and then regretting them! What if Mrs. Barrett should ignore the note and the boy still continued

his antics? What an embarrassing position she would he in then! She should have ignored the boy's misdemeanors before writing the note, but she certainly could not ignore them now. And if they continued what could she do? Here Delia came back? "What did she say?" asked Delia anxiously.

"She didn't say nothin'." "Did she come to the door hrself?" Delia nodded. "Yes, 1 think she had company somebody was playing the piano." "Then she didn't open the note while you were there?" "So, she just took it and shut the door." And Helen started on her errands. But her mind was full of the note and its possible consequences. Perhaps Mrs. Barrett would answer it in her absence. She might 'phone or even call. As soon as she could Helen hurried back. "Anything while I was gone, Delia? Anyone call or any note?" Delia shook her head. "Nothing at all, ma'am."

Hut hardly had Helen taken off her hut when the door bell rang. "It's Mrs. Barrett." whispered Delia, coming back to the bedroom. "She wouldn't come in she's waitin' at the door." Helen, painfully conscious of her flushed face, went out into the hall. Mrs. Barrett, dressed for the street, was just standing outside the open

door. In her hand was Helen's note. "I believe you sent me this note, Mrs. Curtis," freezingly. 'e!en nodded. "Well, this is the first time anyone has ever complained of George. You are very much mistaken about the

The streets are public property and my boy has just as much right on them as any one else. For a moment. Helen was too disconcerted to reply. Always easily confused, she was now wholly at a loss, and she could think of nothing to say. And before she could collect herself.

elevator with a haughty "good afternoon." Helen closed the door and walked blindly back into the sitting room. Her cheeks were ablaze. Oh, why had she

I Delia, coming in expectantly.

"Oh, she simply denied it said George would never think of ringing our bell," bitterly "as thought I hadn't heard him scampering down the hall." "Didn't you tell her that, ma'am?"

'No, I 1 didn't have time to tell , there's nothing criminal about that. 1

THE WORLD'S BEST PERFUMES AND TOILET WATERS The possession of wealth, of power and authority carries with it always the prerogative of having the best the world can supply. Cost has no meaning. Distance and difficulty of access raise no barriers. The one question is of quality. Hence It is that '.;road the patronage of royalty bestows a remarkable distinction. Hence it is that here in America the patronage of the leaders In statecraft, of finance, in business, in society, and in the professions is an indication that the article so favored has been selected aolely on its superior merits, and from the offerings of the world: Excellence does not follow, but precedes such patronage. Such is the patronage accorded to that Regal J-ine of Toilets named after a regal woman Mary Garden, introduced and sold in Richmond by uh. Come in and let us demonstrate.
