Back To Life A Red Admiral flew from the clump of Michaelmas daisies to the tall sunflowers that heavily bowed, then back again to the mauve and purple blossoms, and Michael Borde pushed his invalid chair a little far- Sun- shine was good, his' thin hands were no longer shaking as a month be- fore, when for the first time he had propelled himself along here, look- ing wistfully down the Vale of the Red Horse. That month had been a busy one for him, too, for as soon as he found brain and body fit enough he had insisted upon seeing solicitors as well as works manager, nd-little-by-little-began--to--lay fin gers again on the pulse of his busi- Jess, It was how extraordinary, too, - contact with working organisation acted as a tonic. Although crippled for some time to come unable to be moved, except on this same level, he found himself growing stronger every day, and if his doctors had allowed, would have occupied him- self for longer time than he could pow give to details dealing with or- ganisation and output. He watched the Red Admiral and sighed, counting up the months be- fore he dare hope to be up and about again. Although both doc- tors were reassuring, they were firm upon that one thing, and for some time he must be content to stay here. Turning now, hearing the sound of footsteps, he smiled faintly. Ac- customed to Lily Eden's surveillance; accustomed, too, to her changed de- meanour, he yet remained puzzled over many things. That he had been rescued by Daphne after his accid- ent, he knew, that she was away in J.ondon he also knew, but exactly what position her step-mother occu- pied in this household he could not discover. To all his questionings Mrs. Eden shook her head and smil- ed.

His heart sank, remembering the look in Daphnes eyes the day of his acci- dent, remembering his own misery, and heartache, the blundering mess' into which he had been propelled; by what he knew mow was lack of judgment. Multi-Motors had been saved, but it would be by the skin of his teeth, as he termed it, that he could manage to get through this; winter; those losses had been more heavy than.he had realised, and. con- sultations with his solicitors had de- termined him at last to do what they had urged from the start of their visits here.

BEAUTIFY YOUR HOME ~ AND SURROUNDINGS The season approaches when ev- ery home-owner in Simcoe and the surrounding villages 'of Norfolk County should be giving thought to the. beautification of his premises and thus to the improvement in ap- pearance of his community. While horticultural work has enjoyed a tre- mendous boom in Norfolk in the last few years, there remains plenty of room: for further development. Every unimproved or unplanted home can be made more attractive by the judicious use of trees, shrubs, flowers and well-kept grass.

He would go no further. A minute ago he had meant to push his chair to the end of the brick path, from whence he could look down at the Tudor House. "There's a visitor asking for you," | she said, "I thought I'd run out and prepare you." He was about to reply that he wanted no visitor, but something in her excited eyes gave him a clue, and his heart began to beat a little faster. It must be Daphne. Well, he was in her house, and he would remember gratefully she had taken him in. Perhaps she had stayed away because of him all this time. He must remember to be grateful for that, too. Curious to find his heart beating so fast, "Who is it?" he asked quietly. "I'll leave her to announce her- self," she said coquettishly, and hurrying back, and although he heard other footsteps, Michael Borde did not turn his head. In- stead he pushed his chair a few paces forward, and through the opening in the trees he could catch a glimpse of the twisted chimneys of the Tudor House in the valley. A minute later she stood beside him. "Michael," she said quietly. "I've come to ask you to forgive me." He stared, turned, saw her eyes, and the unexpectedness of her words, coupled with the look in her face, took him unawares. Iorget- ting everything, he held out his hands, for a minute it scemed as though time stood still, as: though all bitterness and heartache had never been, as though he and she had stepped back to a green garden, and life was as it had been when she had laid her hands in his and he had known what a woman's sur- render and a man's longing meant.

My correspondent says: "If writing is so characteristic of the Mdividual, why do the schools insist that the pupils imitate a copybook pattern? . . . I myself was an excellent copy- book writer, but as soon as I was not forced 'to write in that way, I stop- ped and wrote in any old way. I must add that most of my friends who were also excellent copybook stylists at school, now write no bet- ter than I do". It will be obvious that education- al authorities cannot take - every angle of things into their consider- ation. Their task, in regard to writ- ing, is to teach the rudiments of it, and for this reason, they have to adopt a standard style. It is mani- festly impracticable to attempt to teach hundreds of pupils to take but a single school, and yet allow them all to use their own systems, It is the same with teaching peo- ple to write as it is in all other branches of learning, We must go from the simple to the complex. The real essence of this question, however, lies in the confession of the correspondent. She admits that in spite of being an excellent copybook writer, once she whs away from the arbitrary influence of that system, she reverted, probably gradually, to |: an individual style of writing. In other words, she gradually began to express her own individuality and character. This confession goes to le Ee lt La a A---- VEGETABLE COMPOUND the very heart of the value of Graphology. > ag Graphologists maintain, and prove the truth of their claims by the ac- curate character delineations they make, that handwriting is the hall- mark of the individual's character; that people write, in a certain way because their characters and natures are of a certain type, and they pos- sess certain definite characteristics. In spite of various systems and styles of writing, we all ultimately express our own individual style and in doing so, present a picture of our characters. It is because of this that a character reading of yourself from your handwriting can be so definite- ly helpful to you. * * Would YOU like to have YOUR character analysed from YOUR handwriting?

We are influenced to a greater ex- tent than we realize by our sur- roundings. Childen are particularly pensitive in this regard.

If children are taught to love flowers and to become familiar with them, their hearts will be filled with love for these. things which leave less room in their hearts and minds for the things that hurt and destroy. The objection is frequently heard that gardens and flowers cost too much or that they take too much time. The truth is that it is-not €o much a matter of money or time as it fs of desire and disposition, If we are disposed to have gardens and flowers and really desire to have at- tractive home surroundings, we will have them no matter how busy we may be.
