THE SYRACUSE AND LAKE WAWASEE JOURNAL

| Bu One J | Majority i ! *■ i I Genevieve Ulmar | (Copyright. 131 S. by W. G. Chapman*) It was pretty well understood in Fairfield that Grace Waldron had two lovers who were deadly in earnest in the race for her hand. Both were young lawyers. That was quite natural, for Mr. Waldron was a judge, and his intimate acquaintances were likely to include principally those of the profession. “I really don’t know,” smiled Grace artlessly when questioned by her closest girl friends as to her prefererence—‘‘maybe neither.” “Nonsense,” reiterated b'.unt Dottie Jones. “They are the only pick of the town.” “And I’d have either of them if they asked me!” declared Kate Rushton, with a laughing sigh. “Fate will decide.” solemnly pronounced Madge Brooks, who had studied astrology and impressed all her friends with her superior knowledge of tea grounds. And Eate did, but in the oddest manner in the world — none other than the medium of a man with one side of his mustache cut off and the other a bright vivid green. The possessor of this curtailed hirsute appendage came staggering down the street one afternoon just as Grace was going to a tennis party. He was all unconscious of his ludicrous appearance. For a moment he halted at the fence, stupidly surveyed the group beyond it, let go his hold, nearly fell down and then reeled on his way. Most of the players were laughing, especially Ellis Deane. He was chuckling, vastly entertained. “Hired the barber to decorate him,” he vouchsafed. “Fellow belongs down at the creek settlement. Tipped the barber a quarter to shave him right. Send him home so his own folks won't know him!” “And suppose he has a mother?” interrogated Grace solemnly. She was 6 'ft hr' ) i Unconscious of His Ludicrous Appear- . ance. not one of the smiling ones. She faced Deane with grave eyes bearing an expression he did not at all fancy. He tried to laugh it off, but felt that he had made a decidedly bad impression. He with Boyd Lester comprised the duo of rivals for the hand of Grace. So far his brilliant, aggressive ways had impressed her friends with the belief that eventually Grace would favor this suitor. Lester was more quiet. Both young men were candidates for the vacapt circuit judgeship of the county.'Ut was pretty well understood that Judge Waldron would favor the one who succeeded in winning the election. The cheap, heartless trick which Deane vaunted somehow made a serious impression on the mind of Grace. She noted that it was shared by Lester, although the latter made no comment, but his face was pitying as the unfortunate young man from the creek settlement went on his unsteady way, turned into a wooded lot just beyond the Waldron grounds, and for the time being at least gave up the task of finding his way home by lying down under a bush and forgetting life and its activities in sodden slumber. I To Clean Unvarnished Paint. Put upon a plate some of the best whiting, have ready somq clean, warm water and a piece of flannel, which dip into the water and squeeze nearly dry; then take as much whiting as will adhere to it, apply to the paint, when a little rubbing will instantly remove any dirt or grease. Wash off well with water and rub dry \yith a soft doth. Paint thus cleaned looks equal to new and without doing the least injury to the most delicate color. It will preserve the paint much longer than if cleaned with soap, and it does not require more than half the time usually occupied in cleaning. Epitapns. Epitaphs, if in rhyme, are the real literature of the masses. They need no commendation, and are beyond all criticism. A Cambridge don, a London bus driver, will own their charm m equal measure. Strange indeed is the fascination of rhyme. A commonplace hitched into verse instantly takes rank with Holy Scripture. This passion for poetry, as it is sometimes called, is manifested on every side:

Grace was preoccupied all the afternoon. She avoided Deane and he noticed it. Hers was a tender heart. Memory, too, had been busy. She recalled a cousin who had fallen a victim to the lure of the wine cup at the acme of ambition, always a grief ’•’ith the devoted relatives who had seen his promised life cut short. “1 wish you would remain a little after the others leave,” she said to Lester, and he was in the seventh heaven of delight at the words. Then when the others had departed she came to the retired garden seat where he unobtrusively awaited her. She was embarrassed and flushed as she sat down beside him. “You are a good friend, Mr. Lester,” she said, “and I felt you would be glad to help me out of some troublesome anxieties.” “You have but to command me,” assured Lester Ipyally. “The poor unfortunate who passed by here upon whom Mr. Deane had played the sorry trick —you remember him ?” Lester bowed in assent. At that moment he decided that Deane stock was at a low appraisement with Miss Grace Waldron. “Come with me, please.” continued ; Grace. “The poor fellow is lying in the bushes just beyond here.” She led the way past the confines of the home grounds. As they neared ! some bushes the prone figure of the ! wretched inebriate came into vie#. “He is young and has not a hard face,” pursued Grace, and her tender sympathy touched a responsive chord ' in the heart of Lester. “He has a mother, probably. They have disfig- I tired him with what they call their joking ways. Mr. Lester, 1 want you i to take care of this man and send him i home respectable looking and sober.” : “You can trust me willingly to do that,” responded Lester heartily. Then Grace, blushing at her own temerity, darted away and as Lester approached i the prostrate man the latter sat up | abruptly. “Say, mister,” he spoke clearly, to the profound amazement of Lester, ( “Aho is that young lady?” “She is Miss Grace Waldron,” re- ( plied Lester without reflection. “And you?” “Boyd Lester.” “I want to remember them,” said the young fellow, a slight huskiness in his voice. “I noticed this just now for the first time.” He laughed half , shamefacedly, and he fumbled at his mustache. “Come with me and I will see to i mending that,” pledged Lester, and he ; did not hesitate to take the man to | his room, provide razor and toilet : accessories, and sent him home with a grateful, though rather wretched | face. Lester made only one reference | that to the episode and that was to report his action to Grace I in accordance with her request to him. : He received a sweet friengjly smile, a glance of rare approval from those telltale eyes. Then a few days before the jFdgesblp were busily j spent. It was a heated contest, and the | most #>pert politicians could not predict tie outcome with any confidence. were sought after eagerly. About %ur o’clock in the afterrboon a wagon drove up filled with denizens of the creek district. A man jumped out am approached Lester. “Remember me?” he inquired. “I du” assured Lester, “and I am glad tL cee you. Did you get home all I right tnat day?” “Yes, and told my wife all about it | and—l’ve mended. She wrote down those two names. She made me gather up every relative we had, all voters, and I’ve brought them up here to cast their ballots —for you.” “Why, 1 certainly thank you,” said Lester in genuine apreciation of the l favor bestowed. “By one majority! ” That was the report of the judges | of election two hours later. “In favor of Boyd Lester,” was the | final bulletin. The judge hooked arms with the successful candidate —in / fact, took formal possession of himl at the announcement. Ellis Deane tead the action aright, and went home generally j disgruntled. Grace watched them coming and a ! great throb of joy permeated her be- I ing. “By one majority, but Lester won,” I pronounced the judge. “And that cne,” explained Lester to Grace, when they were alone an hour | later, “was the man to whom you | showed so much kindness the day of | the lawn party.” “If I had votedj” spoke Grace softly, “that would have made two majority, wouldn’t it?” and love unmistakable was shining in the depths of her true, tender eyes Big Brother’s Definition. “Johnny.” said the Sunday school teacher one morning recently, “what is the meaning of the word ‘Selah?’ ” “I asked my big brother.” replied Johnny, “and he says it means ‘do you get muh?’ ” even tradesmen share It and, as the advertisements in our newspapers show, are willing to pay small sums to poets who commend their wares in verse. The widow bereft of her life’s , companion, the mother bending over I an empty cradle, find solace in think- I ing what doleful little scrag of verse | shall be graven on the tombstone of i the dead. From the earliest times | men have sought to squeeze their * loves and joys, their sorrows and hatreds, into distichs and quatrains, and to inscribe them somewhere, on walls or windows, on sepulchral urns and gravestones, as memorials of their pleasure or their pain. In Cas« of Accident. A crushed finger should be plunged into water as hot as can possibly be borne. The application of hot water causes the nail to expand and soften and the blood pouring out beneath it has more roqgi to flow; thus the pain is lessened. The finger should then be wrapped in a bread-and-water poultice. A jammed finger should never be neglected, as it mav lead to mortification.

Appareled for the Boudoir I s A i wrak \ f I I -Wl 11 ft nWO '« y . • 'x-pWr t \ v >

Feminine daintiness and love tor beautiful color may be indulged without restraint within the walls of the boudoir. There is no excuse for any sort of ugliness there. Lingerie grows more and more airy and dainty, and in negligees the prettiest fancies of designs are interpreted in any extreme of style. Satin and chiffon, thin crepe and fine laces, are the alluring mediums with which the artist works out her dreams. Ribbons and little made flowers add touches that betray her delight in the work she undertakes. Color is such an important factor in apparel for the boudoir that the less expensive sheer fabrics, in the same colors as silk stuffs, are used with as good results. Voiles, mull, lawn and thin mercerized cottons are made up with laces and trimmed with ribbons co make negligees that are as captivatingly colorful and dainty as any others. But they cost a fraction of the price of sheer silk materials.

Recently Launched Summer Styles ■ iß.yi i i. — ■ ■ in i i ■ « — ••• , • j i -Wiillillijiß i Si i s Bra I IF fl F

It makes one long for midsummer, for the glory of June weddings, or even for graduation days, to view the new thin white dresses which have recently been launched upon the sea of summer fashions. They are a froth of frills and flounces and look as cool and unsubstantial as white clouds in the spring .sky. These models of the utterly feminine in summer clothes are repeated in pale tints that are mere reflections of pink or green or blue. Occasionally illusive figures appear on them, usually in the form of lace applique in motifs that are applied to an under petticoat or to the underside of the skirt. Organdie and other sheer crisp materials are better adapted to dresses of . this kind than softer fabrics Lawns i and voiles are used for them, and it almost goes without saying that the flounces and frills are made very full always but fullest in the softer goods. A frock of white organdie is shown In the illustration given* here. It reveals the cleverest sort of management of style and material, each helping out the other. The skirt and bodice are in one. set together with a plain belt cf

The Devil’s Bible. A remarkable exhibit at the royal palace in Stockholm is the so-called Devil’s Bible, a huge copy of the Scriptures, written on 300 prepared asses’ skins. Tradition says that It took 500 years, or from the eighth to the thirteenth century, to complete the work, which is so large it occupies an entire table. According to another tale, Satan did the job in a night and gave the monkish recipient of the gift a picture of his fiery self for the frontispiece.

A negligee worn over a combination with pantalettes, is shown in the picture. The pantalettes are substituted for petticoats and worn under dance frocks or under negligees. They are of satin, joined to ’an under bodice of satin and lace. Wide val lace is cascaded down the sides in ruffles that widen toward the bottom. Just above the ankle the fullness is gathered on an elastic cord, forming a narrow frill. This combination is supported by ribbons tied at the shoulders. Chiffon and Uruguay lace make the lovely empire coat worn over this combination. It is banded with ribbon in three widths, the widest forming a border about the bottom. Wide lace flouncing!, is draped in the effect of a mantle, falling over the sleeves and covering the upper half of the coat. It fastens at the waist line under two little bouquets of chiffon flowers made of tiny roses apd ribbon foliage.

white moire. There is a panel down the front made of a series of frills graduated in width. They are plaited in the narrowest of plaits and extend from the square neck to the bottom of the skirt. Two wide and very full flounces cover the remainder of the skirt. The hem of these flounces is trimmed into scallops and hemstitched at the edges. The elbow sleeves are covered with four plaited frills and widen at the elbow. There is a quaint little cape about the shoulders, edged with a frill, and it falls over the shoulders to the topmost frill on the sleeves. The bodice is plain and is hemmed at the sides in a scalloped hem that falls over the I panel at the front. It fastens at the with invisible fastening of small fiat buttons and loops. ' Patent Leather Motifs. Patent leather motifs form a decorative scheme on some of the gabardine suits.

Worth Knowing. To remove rust from steel rub the rusted part well with sweet oil and allow it to stand for 48 hours. Then rub with a piece of soft leather amU sprinkle with finely powdered unslaked lime until the rust disappears. The Suicide Age. According to an Italian scientist who has classified 4,000 cases of self-de-struction, more suicides occur between the ages of fifteen and twenty-aix than at any other life.

Wants to Develop Her Soul. Defying paternal authority and scoring present-day rpethods of education. Miss Violette Wilson, daughter of J. Stitt Wilson, the former mayor of Berkeley, has withdrawn from the University of California. She announced that it was her intention to develop her own soul and that she intended to get an education from real life and not one the whole significance of which lay in a college diploma. ISiss Wilson registered in letters and sciences at the university last August, but after a few months decided that her studies were hampering rather than assisting her mental growth. So, despite the wishes of her parents, she left the classroom. —San Francisco Chronicle. - : I— Its Equality. “Fishing is a sport in which rich and poor can meet on a common level.” “That’s right; in fishing it is not so much a man’s assets which count as his lie-abilities.” Well Supplied.

Concentrated Satisfaction A great many former users of tea and coffee have learned that there is a pure food beverage made from wheat, which has a delightful flavor. It never exacts of its users the tribute of sleeplessness, heart-flutter, headache and other ills often caused by the drug, caffeine, in coffee and tea. Instant Postum suggests the snappy flavor of mild java coffee, but is absolutely free from caffeine or any harmful ingredient Instant Postum is in condensed, soluble form, and wonderfully convenient for the home —for the picnic—for travel —everywhere. If tea or coffee interferes with comfort or- success, as it does for many users, try a shift to Postum. u There’s a Reason”
