Keats Once Wrote Lines Befitting Musical Comedy (Ruth Lambert Jones, iu Boston Transcript) Unfelt, unheard, unseen. I've left my little queen. Whence these lines? We can fancy the svelte hero of a musical comedy wafting them abroad as he "jazzes" nonchalantly through glittering ranks of the eternal feminine; we can fancy a not too-heavily clad chorus responding in a shrill-pitched, syncopation: He's left his little queen, he's left his 'it tie queen!" Or we can imagine the lines, merely a part of a popular song, emblazoned on the sheet music adorning every piano in the land, vociferated mechanically by countless phonographs, or wailed plaintively by cafe singers midst gastronomic vapors. And their author? Any jocularly inclined modern from a professional hack lyrist to a sportive Sir James Barrie bent on playing another anonymous joke upon a bewildered, soberminded world. Anybody of the present day and generation but hold! there Is after all a class of beings above suspicion. For we may be reasonably sure that neither Miss Lowell nor one of her disciples would indulge in the infirmity of rhyme. Wherefore, rumination runs riot to the point of discovering that these words, so flippant to twentieth century ears, were penned in 1S17 as the fceglnnlg o a seriously amrorous poem entitled "Lines By a Certain John Keats."

How To Have Red Lips! The girl with red lips and pink cheeks may be thankful, for both denote health vigorous, forceful, magnetic health, and while it may be impossible for some to attain owing to morbid states of health, yet a vast majority of seemingly healthy young women and men are almost colorless, because of a lack of red blood corpuscles. When the blood is improved and enriched with these red corpuscles, the weight increases and a beautiful tint appears on the cheeks, while the lips assume a healthy red color. Many physicians and beauty doctors prescribe three-grain hyponuclane tablets which are said to invariably increase the red blood corpuscles after a course of treatment lasting several months. The nervous system and general health also improve rapidly. The best apothecary shops supply this tablet in sealed packases. advertisement. Kielhorn's wonderful Millinery values at $5.00.

To call a giri bearing the pretty appellative derives from the Hebrew Chaanach, Anna oi Anne indiscriminately is a gross error. They are separate names and should not be used interchangeably. Anna was first known as the Roman goddess of the circling year. She wai confused later with Anne, the com panion sister of Dido, whose tragie end is recorded by Vergil in the "Aeneid." According to Roman tradition. Anna pursued the faithless Aeneas to Italy, after the suicide of Dido, and there drowned herself in th river Numicius where she became a presiding deity. The Irish have a sim''ar legend to account for their Anna, the daughter of the chief of Firbolg race, drowned herself in the river Life and since the Irish word for river is Amhain, the two words became, on English tongues, Anna Liffey, and were supposed to form the unfortunate lady's name. There was also a St. Anna in Byzantium for whom the Emperor Justinian built a church in 550. Thus Anna became a popular name among Greek damsels, and a daughter of Emperor Basil married Vladimir, Grand Prince of Muscovy. Another famous bearer of the name was Anna d'Este of Italy, who brought her title to the House of Guise. Like Anne, the talismanic gem of Anna is the pearl. It promises her good fortune, many friends, and eztreeni affability. Wednesday is her lucky day and 5 her lucky number.
