flower unblown; a book unread; A tree with fruit unharvested; A path untrod; a house whose rooms Lack yet the neart's divine perfumes; A landscape whose wide border lies In silent shade 'neath silent skies; A wondrous Fountain yet unsealed; A casket with Its gifts concealedThis 19 tho year that for you waits, Beyond tomorrow's mystic gates. Oh may this flower untold to you Visions of beauty sweet and new; This book on golden pages trace Your sacred joys and deeds of grace. May all the fruit of this strange tree Luscious and rosy-tinted be; This path through fields of knowledge go; This house with love's content o'erflow; This landscape glitter with the dew Of blessed hopes and friendships true; This fountain's living crystal cheer, As fail the springs that once were dear; This casket with such gems be stored As shine in lives that love the Lord. -Horatio Nelson Powers. The Idroken The big homeward-bound liner plowed her way through Tyrrhenian Sea, heading for Bonifaco.

Far away in the starboard the red flare of Stromboli in eruption served as a convenient lighthouse. Overhead in the blue, illimitable vault gleamed countless stars, their pale reflections seemtingly caught up again in long eddies of phosphorescent water that raced past on either bow. first saloon compartment, and, A man and a woman came "wrath Ing to the taffrail, looked over side for some moments without speaking. Presently the man turned to his companion, "We're to make Marseilles on Tuesday bounds pace," declared, with unmistakable dissatisfaction in his tone. "I'm sorry," replied the girl, frankly.

"So am "Why?" "Dear, you know," he protested. The girl smiled with content. "Yes, but tell me," on she persisted. "Because, if by any unlooked-for piece of luck we don't touch Marsellles until Wednesday it will mean another six days of heaven for me." "Don't be silly," she answered, reprovingly, "but-well; it will be nice, all the same. Just think what hangs on it -more hours together for us like this and then good-by, or else nearly a whole week of being together." "There's no alternative?" "None, if we get to Marseilles on Tuesday.

I'm to meet my people there, and go home with them overland. If we don't get in until the day after I'm stop where I am and go to sea. That's the arrangement. Dearest, can't anything be done to us late? Couldn't you bribe the captain?" "He's too unsympathetic, afraid, The only thing that could do us any good would be for the engine to break down." "We'll hope it will, then. I think I'd almost slyer the chief engineer-ugly as Is--a for himself if it does." The man looked up at the thick smoke belching from the funnels, and felt the quick throb screw.

"No such luck, sweetheart," he answered moodily. Aft, and down below the main in deck, where the heat and motion are intensifiled, the second-class passengers endeavor to make themselves as comfortable as their stuffy, ill-ventilated cabins permitted. The majority of these were so near the water line that the portholes could not be opened. In the cheerful assurance, however, that the voyage would soon be over, this matter seemed a small one. A man of little more than 30, but with hair prematurely gray from prolonged residence in the East, and a skin like weak coffee, paced restlessly up and down the narrow passageway between the row of cabins.

His face was careworn and his Angers itched restlessly as he walked. Judging from clothes and general appearance one would have inclined to put him down as a storekeeper, or at any rate as a person engaged in some subordinate occupation. At the threshold of the second saloon the ship's doctor met him descending the companion. He was almost the only Individual on board to whom the shy, unsociable stranger had spoken. Nearly every one else held aloof or sneered covertly at his awkward ways and rough speech.

"Well," he said, pleasantly, "you won't be sorry to get to Marseilles, I expect?" "I pray to the A'mighty, sir, that we're there by Tuesday at latest," was the earnest reply. "Is it so important as all that?" laughed the other. "I believe life hangs on it, sir. My wife in London-dying. It's eleven long years since I left her and the child--the little lass that won't know her father when she sees him.

Two months ago my poor Mary met with a bad accident. The matron at the hospital she was taken to wrote to me in Bombay, and said as how I must come at once, if I wanted to see her alive, for poralysis had set in. Well. I got leave and raised the passage money somehow. It was a hard pull, but I.

did it. At Port Said there 'a telegram saying she might last till Thursday morning. Oh, sir, do you think I shall be able to catch the night train on Tuesday?" The doctor glanced at the dally record of the ship's run hanging under the clock. "I should certainly say so," he returned, encouragingly. "Thank God!" replied the other fervently, as watched his retreating figure.

The doctor's confidence inspired with hope. He went on deck enjoy it. As passed the first saloon alleytoe way he had a strange feeling that the ship was slowing down a little. He told himself that it was imagination and went toward the rail to look at the waves. Through the soft darkness he could Just see a man with a girl his side a few yards in front of him.

He had no intention of listening. but in the still air he could hear plainly what they were saying. "Isn't it glorious, sweetheart?" exclaimed the man. "I've just had it straight from the chief engineer- the propeller shaft has snapped, and we can't possibly get to Marseilles before Friday Mall Gazette. The Social Sherlock.

When one has something particular on hand for the evening, It is advisable to "rest up" for it during the day, and here is a formula for that process suggested by an excellent English nurse: First lie down in the afternoon with only a loose gown on, so that the body can relax properly. Next take a quick warm bath, afterward rubbing the spine well with eau de cologne. Next the face is to be gently washed in water softened with bran, as hot as can be borne, then rinsed off with cold water to which a dash of tollet vinegar has been added.

To brighten the eyes, give them a bath by means of a teacupful of slightly salted tepid water. Dress with deliberation, and it possible have some one do your hair for you, if you do not keep a maid. It Is a great aid to a successful tollet to have all your things laid out ready so that you do not have to rummage in bureau' drawers or turn out boxes or fumble in closets at the last minute. Whatever you are going to need In the way of clothes, stockings, shoes, handkerchiefs, gloves, fan, should be where you can lay your hand on them when you want them.
