Anne was the best girl friend Hilda ever had. They had been chums in| General of Canada, after he had inspected them on Wimbledon Commons, England. school and had been together 80 MUCh | "rrr eed SAA -- they were taken for sisters, and even | began to feel that way themselves. In their senior year at high school | the two girls became separated when | Anne's parents moved with her to a | near-by city. However, the two girls corresponded regularly and were as good friends as ever, spending most of their vacation periods together. Hilda was graduated from high school, took a business course and be- came a bookkeeper in a department Store. Anne 'took a position ay ste- mographer in a broker's office, Three years later came the surpris- Ing news from Anne: \ "I'm going to marry a millionaire!" | It seemed that Anne's employer fall | in love with her and she with him, and | there could be only one natural result. | In the midst of preparations for the | wedding the Moorehouse home burned | to the ground, and plans were upset | for a short time. Then Anne got the idea she would | like to be married in the little church | she used to attend in her old home | town; so the two famllies most con-'| cerned motored thither. It was to be an elaborate function, | and consequently when Hilda received | an invitation she knew it behooved her to adorn herself suitably for the oc- caslon. The wedding was set for eleven o'clock in the morning, and at nine Hilda set out afoot for the church. It had been raining hal, but had cleared off. and the sun was shining brightly. Two blocks from the church she stopped at a corner to let a big coupe | roll past. The machine was closer to her than she had calculated as she stood.on the walk, and the rear wheel churned up a sea of mud and hurled a tidal wave at Hilda. As the auto vanished round « cor- ner a block away 'the. girl stood and with her fists rubbed wet dirt out of her eyes and looked down at her dress to see that it was ruined. Hilda realized that as far as her presence was concerned the wedding might have been on Mars. She simply could not attend In that mud-bespat- tered costume. There was only one thing to do--retrace her steps, take off | the $58.50 worth of ruined goods and | As she walked dolefully toward her home, trying vainly to biush the cling- ing mud from her, a feeling of rage gradually rose within her, She re- membered how she had seen a young man driving the coupe, and she re- called that he had smiled at her as he drenched her with mud. For a moment the smiling face had attracted her and she had wished that she might know the young man. New she had the same longing, but for a different reason. She would like te present him with a slice of her mind. Fretting and fuming, Hilda wended her way homeward, while the wedding guests crowded the church, and the bride-to-be, with the assistance of a mald, got into her gown In her room at the hotel, and the groom-to-be sat in his room with his father and smoked black cigars to steady his ne; In the midst of these preparations moned her, and when she turned from | the instrument. she displayed excite- ment.

The latter's brother, who was to act #8 best man, had just driven up In his machine. "Fred," directed the prospective groom, "take a run up to the church and yank Hilda Caruthers out of the andience and bring her here. She can wear one of Anne's dresses." ~ *I don't know her," Fred objected. Mrs. Moorehouse fluttered back to ef daughter and returned with a ple of Hilda. Fred's face took on a ne elated expression as he stud fed it. 1 : "That's funny," he remarked.

There was utter silence in the big! room for a minute,'and then the ma went on: . "Do you remember the first time you called me Jimmy?" he asked. "It was at the Van Norden's. We sat out six dances in succession and started all That was the first time I told you I loved you, too-- and I--" "Don't, Jimmy," sald Anne. "Our love didn't treat us very well, you know, and we buried it. _Let it rest in peace." ~~ "You do not mean that, nne Dunsany," said Jimmy; advancing® to- ward her, and before she knew it he had her in his arms and had kissed her. She could feel his heart beat- ing heavily. His voice at her ear was unsteady, like an old forgotten melody. "You haven't buried it any more than I have," he said. "Why not?" \whispered Anne,. trying to make her volce sound firm. "You made my life pretty miserable, you know. Your jealousy would have mad, and I wouldn't go through it all again for anything in the world." "I've learned a lot since then, my dear," said the man. "You won't let love go just because it hurt you once," and he kissed her again. With a sudden remembrance of her real mission in the house Anne tore herself free. "How can you? she cried. "What | about Daisy?" "Oh, Daisy!" said Jimmy, his eyes sparkling gently, "Daisy looked so like you, Anne, that I just couldn't keep away from her, Then I knew, too, that sooner or later she would bring you to Glenbrook. But I didn't dream of finding you here today." With her face against his shoulder Anne explained. - "They told me the past of a man named James must be | looked into before he could pay fur- ther attentions to my young cousin. You know in Glenbrook it is a serious thing 'to pay attentions." The man's gray eyes twinkled with understanding, and "Anne continued: "So I decided the best way un- earth the creature's secrets was to in- spect his house, he being absent. 1 had. just found 'Monsieur Beaucaire' when you spoke™ I thought I was dreaming." "And do you really think you are not going to marry me, my dear?" asked Jimmy, his lips brushing her air, ' "Poor little Daisy!" Anne. Jimmy laughed in a way Glen brook had never heard him laugh He-- fore. - "Look!" he said, pointing to the window.' Coming down the street hand in hand, oblivious of neighbors, of the beauties of the sunset sky or of anything but themselves, came Dalsy Trent and--Tommy. "Daisy likes certainties better than mysteries, dearest," said James. GIVEN NAME BY FRANKLIN Suggestion of Famous Philosopher Re. sulted In Current's Becoming Known as Guif Stream. The Gulf stream, which was discov ered by Ponce de Leon while on his famous search for the fountain of youth, recelved its name through a suggestion of" Benjamin Franklin, be- cause it Issued from the Gulf of Mex- ico. While it is only a part ef the grand scheme of ocean circulation, and the Gulf of Mexico is In reality only & stopping place, this name is general. ly applied to the current now as it was given by Franklin. i Franklin's. theory of the cause of ocean currents, the Detroit News re- marks, was that the winds produce the current by alr moving over the surface of the water, and thus fllustrated his theory: "It is known that a large piece of water, ten miles broad and generally only three feet deep, has by a strong wind had its water driven to one side and sustained so as te be come Six feet deep, while the wind ward side was laid dry." It has been found, however, that the water entering the Caribbean as a result of the trade winds is not mors than one-half the amount which flows through the Straits of Florida from the Gulf of Mexico, and the dther half is supplied from a source which does not come under the head of a meas urable curreat. The waves caused by the wind is the other source, every ripple éarrying a certain amount of water In the direction toward which it is flowing, Irrespective of the cur rentscaused by its friction. When the waves become large, tons of water are hurled from the crest into the trough every time the waves break. sald Cousin . the occupation of the person to whom HISTORY IN NAMES. | Traces of Vanished Peoples Survive | In Names of Places. In the earliest days of the human ( family, all known persons, places and groups of human beings must have had names by which they were recognized. The study of these names and their survival in e#¥ilization enables us often to ascertain what races in- | habited districts now peopled by | those of entirely differefit speech. The names of mountains and rivers | in many parts of England, for in-| stance, are Celtic. - Ancient local names are, as a rule, | purely descriptive. A river is called | by some word which merely signifies "the water," a mountain may have & name which means "the peak," "the castle," 'the point." English place names, generally, state some simple fact, and often de- note no more than property; the name of a town or hamlet being | formed by adding "ton" or "ham" to the name of some early landholder. Quite often a bit of even half hu- moftous descriptior will survive in such-a name, as when a stony, starved and weedy district is called Starvacre. The English race carries with it the ancient names of an older people | intq every continent, and titles given to places in the British Isles may be found in America, Australia. Africa | and the islands of the furthest seas. Touching personal names, we find that among most uncivilized races a name, commonly derived from some incident or natural object, is given at the time of birth by the parents to each child. { In some cases names of the earliest races denotes some phenomenon of nature. No names are more common among North American Indians than those derived from sun, moon, stars, clouds and wind. Our English ancestors had for personal names compound words, as, "Noble Wolf," "Wolf of War' and so forth, the hames testifying to a somewhat primitive and fierce stage of sBciety. Later came' vulgar nicknames, as "Long," "Black," "White," "Brown," ete., other names were derived from they were given as '"'Smith," "Fowl- er," "Saddler," etc. Yet other names are derived from places, the noble and landowner was called "of" such and such a place, equivalent to the German "von" and the French "da." The humbler man was called not "of,"" but "at" such a place, as in the name "Attewell" (at" well), or merely by the local name without the "at," as "Wells." Following are the origins of the names of some countries: Europe signifies a country of white people, given because the in- habitants were of a lighter color than those of Africa and Asia. Asia mean "between," given bec cause geographers placed it between Europe and Africa. Africa, which formerly was cele- brated for its abundance of grain, was given this name, meaning 'the land of corn." Siberia signifies "thirsty" or | ny i: 1) 7 [nny I! Hn I iil a] "dry." ; Italy signifies a country of pitch, because it once yielded great quan- tities of "black piteh. Britain means 'the country of tin." Siclly denotes the " "country - of grapes." Hibernia means "utmost' or "last | habitation," for beyond this, west- ward, \the tured. Gaul, modern France, signifies "yellow-haired," from the light Lair Phoeniciags never ven- Z | of the Gauls. Finds Blasphemy In Hymns. Some very strong words about bymns have been said by Rev. J. H. Hopkinson, son of the former vice- chancellor of Manchester University. "We have learned," he says, "that {war is not a matter of fluttering ban- ners and clashing swords and beating drums, but merely a sickening and dirty butchery of lads in water-logged or fly-infested trenches. "We shall be less ready than we were to compare the movement of |the church to that of a victorious army. Hymns that we could sing unthinkingly before the war have be- {come a lying blasphemy. Who would {now sing "Like a mighty army moves the church of God"? Four lumps of sugar contain as much nourishment as a medium-sized potato.
