"What on earjth made you have black jeyes, Jimmy? I dislike them so!" she said petulantly. Jimmy openedthe offending orbs very in his surprise. "By Jove, you are a queer one, Min.

"No, I haven't," indignantly, "but black eyes are treacherous and I never could trust them." Whether they were treacherqus or ahot was left an open question, but they 'certainly proved persuasive, and finally Jimmy was in possession of the story.

A Beautiful Calendar. No more beautiful calendar Is likely to appear in Buffalo this year than the Buffalo Cottage Calendar, which Is Just out of the artist's hands, for Its creation has been the work of an artist. An exquisite bit of Lake Champlaln scenery viewed from the Buffalo Cottage at Cliff Haven, constitutes the pictorial part of the calendar, the Bcene being one of the records of summer travel taken by Mrs. Luha E. VanZandt with an artistic judgment In selection and skill In execution that Is rare with camera devotees.

The view Is across Lake Champlaln, the Green Mountains of Vermont showing faintly in the distance. A passing steamer lends action to the otherwise quiet scene. Mrs. Van Zandt has added to her calendar a quotation from Bishop Colton's book, Seedlings and the Holy Days of Obligation, and the result Is charming. The work so far as Mrs.

Van Zandt Is concerned, has been a work of love for the Buffalo Cottage at the Cliff Haven Summer School and all of the proceeds of the sale of the calendar will go to the Buffalo Cottage fund. Bishop Colton has expressed great satisfaction in the pretty calendar. The quotation from his book, used, Is "Home and Church and school should beo many connecting links In the one great chain binding earth to Heaven, the creature to his God." The cost of the calendar Is a trifle but a large sale would mean much to the Buffalo Cottage at Cliff Haven. Mr. and Mrs.

That night when the moon cast a long path of light ovr the waves, a couple sat far down the beach In a spot removed from the orowd. "She told me my name without my writing It!" Minna said In awed tones; "she is simply wonderful! Said for me never to have any confidence in fakes that made me write questions and fold them on a table. That they had blank papers folded Just like them, and when they were toying with the ones I wrote, that they would substitute the blank one and leave it on the table, and take mine in their hand under the edge of the table and read it. That's exactly what that first woman must have done.

I've lost faith In her entirely, and, Jimmy boy, she said that the only person I need avoid and be suspicious of was a blond man with a Vandyke beard." Young Mr. Kent stroked his beardless chin.

Afterward, with her head resting comfortably against his tweed shoul der, she spoke musingly: "She said that the greatest trial of her life was that there were so many fakes that brought discredit upon her glorious profession." "Never you mind, little girl, I'm not so easily imposed upon and you'll have me with you all through life to help pick out the real article," and the treacherous Mr.
