At first Brian nal written cheerfully, almost gayly, dbout keeping bachelor hall, ete. But the lagt two or three letter had told of his loneliness, and had wondered when she was coming back. 4 "You haven't left me for good, have you, dear?" he asked, pretend- ing to joke, "because if you have, I shall set the police on to you with orders to bring you back. But really Ruth, I don't believe you have any idea of how lonely I am, or you would pack up and come by the next train. [I can't bear to go home, late- ly; it grows more and more lonely without you." "I really must go!" she told her aunt. "It was good of Brian to let me come, and I feel abominably self- ish when I think of him there, all alone, while I am having a glorious time here and being waited on like I used to be. 7 reckon you all have most spoiled me again, Her aunt did not urge her to re- main But she figured up what she would have paid a decorator for the work, and 'insisted that Ruth take a check for the same amount. * "The laborer is worthy hire," you know," she quoted. "But I LOVED to do it!" Ruth re- "And really would you have paid a really truly professional man all that?"* the check was a large one, "Yes, perhaps more." This second parting was in some respects harder than the first had been, Ruth had so easily slipped back into the old groove; so readily fallen into her old habits of luxury, and had been so loving, as well as beloved, that they could not bear to see her go. Mammy Rachel, espec- ially, lamented long and loudly. She had expected to return with Ruth from the moment she knew she was coming South. Her disappointment AA At in, of his was very keen, and she took no pains to hide it. "It sho'ly am wicked, she ain't nothin' but a baby, and her all lone up N'oth." Only Mrs. Clayborne said noth- ing. She fairly ached to keep her niece with her; to feel that once again she belonged to her, and was happy. She noted the softness of her hands, the gloss on her hair, the look of perfect grooming which had always been associated with Ruth, and which had been absent when she came. "How muttered. much." Ruth did. As she drew near New York, she could scarcely wait to see Brian, to be clasped in his arms. It seemed to her that something must be the matter, the train went so slowly. If fairly appeared to crawl. But finally they were in the station, the train"stopped, and she saw Brian tall, handsome, distinguished-look- ing, waiting for her. Clasped in his arms, regardless of who saw them, she told him how glad she was to be back, how she didn't believe she could ever leave him again, and many things that emotional people say at such times And Brian! He told her how he had missed her, how the days and nights were, each, forty-eight hours long. That he had considered committing suicide if she remained longer; and all the foolish things a man very much in love with his wife is apt to say. They had dinner at a nice little restaurant And as Mrs. Murphy had scrubbed and cleaned Ruth's home coming was really quite a gay and festive affair. But the next morning, just as she was happily dreaming of some old castle which she was to redecorate, Brian woke does she endure it?' she "She must love him very her: "You'll have to hurry if I am to TALKING ~~~ With Lorna Moon IT OVER Young Husband is away on a business trip.

He ment to step out a little; he had his mind on taking a chorus girl out to supper and other forms of amuse ment he had not sampled for five- years. So they were both quite glad to say good-bye although both said the usual things about being lone- There was a nice young captain that Httle Wife found rather interest- ing before Husband left; and she looked forward to going out with him. She thought it would be like stepping back to girthood for a little while. So when the captain phoned to ask if she would go ont to dinner Freedom and the Treadmill. she said she would be pleased. She hummed gaily as she arrayed her- self in her prettiest frock and hat, she had 'a delightful sense of intrigue and she knew she was going to have a wonderful time. They dined and danced and flirted a little, but all the time she found herself wondering if hubby was lonesome on the train and if it was very hot travelling. Next evening the captain to8k her boating---she noticed that he had a foolish way of letting his mouth fall open---she went home early, and was rather fretful when she bade him goodnight. When he asked her what she would like to do to-morrow she sald she would be very busy. Somehow the "freedom" wasn't' half as interesting as she had thought it would be. She joined a party of young people later in the was convinced that the anly man worth spending a moment of time with was the husband who was away. "To-day she had a letter from young Husband and he says "It only takes a short trip like this to remind me what a sweetheart you always I am no kind of a kid without you. Iam not going to stay any lon- ger than the law allows." { She read it with swimming eyes-- she is aching to get back to her "treadmill," she know now that "freedom means only loneliness. No one can take the place of her pal of five years because she always meas- ures them by him and they always fall so short. SHEE S009 0000000004 Told In Twilight (Continued from Page 3.) Mrs. N.

But this wasn't Aunt Laura's This was home, her home and Brian's. So she sprung out of bed, threw on a kimona and hurried into the kitchen to the once more unaccustomed and unwelcome task of getting breakfast. All day, Ruth's thoughts were very busy. \ "I reckon, the first thing, we' all will be hearing you have gone into business. I hear it is quite a fad up N'oth." Peggy Sutton had all unconseious- ly set her thoughts in motion, Now they wandered on and on of their own volition. Try as she would, Ruth could not divert them into an- other channel. She went to the drawer where she had laid it, and took out the check her aunt had given her. "She said it was no more--not as much, 'perhaps,--as she would have given a professional. She says my work is equal to theirs. And---it is twice as' much as Brian earns, even in his best months." All through the day she wondered, Then: "Why not?" she asked to herself. "Others do such things because it is a fad with them. Why not do it be- cause it is necessary and --because you love it--had rather do it than-- this!" looking around the kitchen, and, because of her straying thoughts burning her arm as she litted the po- tatoes from the stove. "lI believe I will!" a frightened look in her face. "I won't say any- thing to Brian until 1 see if anyone will have me, Then I can hire this sort of work dome.

Report on Beverly Fishing Grounds is Commendatory, Brockville, Aug. 27. --Complete ex- oneration of the Beverly Lakes fish- ing grounds on charges laid by Craig Miner, of New York, under the nom de plume of "Keokuk," that bass and pike in the lakes were diseased by vol- lution of the waters by sewage from the village of Delta, is offere by the. report of Henry Watson, Provincial Gamé Warden, submitted to.D.

Mr. Waban, after thorough investigation of the lakes, finds that "all the fish in the upper Beverly are free from disease of any kind," 'and that while some of the fish in the lower Beverly are afflicted with sores, these sores are produced by a parasite ang are not attributable to sewage. Re. CHOICE OF COLORS Blondes and Brunettes Demand Individual Shades. Relation of Effect of Hues on Various Complexions Should Be Considered ' in Making Selections. In costume the beauty of a color should not be considered aloue, but in relation to the effect it has upon the complexion of the person who is to wear it, observes a fashion eritic. The instinctive craving for color, is natural and should be gratified, but not at the sacrifice of harmonious ap- pearance. however, attractive or commonplace and uninteresting, but may be ime proved by a selection of the color best suited to the particular complexion. Individuals fall in two general types, blonde and brunette, and each of these two types is again divided inte several types.

The wide difference in 'the complex- lons of blondes and brunettes mfkes it impossible for them to wear the same hues. Each season brings cere tain popular colors, and blondes and brunettes alike rush for them re- gardless of the effect these colors have upon their complexion. Color has the same effect upon complexion that certaln chemicals have upon water. For example, certain hues of red will bring out the yellow in the face of one blonde, while in the faces of others it emphasizes green or per haps purple; or makes one ashen, the color of the eye fading, and the hair becoming dusty looking, and lustreless.
