The Afro-American

Every Male Citizen of Every Race, Between 21 and 31 Years of Age Must Sign Up For Service. It does not make any difference whether you are a white man, a black man, a yellow man, or even a red man. Whether you are an American, Chimman. German, Frenchman, or any other kind of man, between the ages of 21 and 31, you must go to the registration office next Tuesday and tell all you know about yourself. It matters not whether you are sick and in bed, whether you are blind, pricked or dead. You must either register or get some one to do it for you. This is the law and there is heavy penalty attached to failing perform this duty. It may be that you are immune, that you will have some very excellent reason for staying home, the law recognises none of these things until you have registered. Rich and poor, literate and ill, some, some, some. Uncle Sam says get home on the books and there it must go, or -- well Uncle Sam says come up and register or a long tail term or a heavy fine, and it will be some fine. So be sure and register next Tuesday. The exceptions will come later, no one will have Uncle Sam makes no distinctions, there is no segregation or Jimcrow business here, he says ALL and he means ALL. So get busy. If you live elsewhere and are visiting here send your registration to your home town, and in order to do this you will have to go to the court clerk, get a registration blank, certify it and then send it to the register in your home city or home place for registration there. Now this is no child's play, and unless you want trouble—REGISTER. Commencement At Atlanta University Atlanta. Ga.

These people were on their way to the Eastern Sho' where for the next four or five weeks they will do their "bilt" towards saving Maryland's strawberry district, but the sho' is located a short distance from Salisbury, lies ones of the largest strawberry districts in the country; and every year thousands of "pickers" are carried there from Baltimore and other cities to help gather the crop. Among those who left on the "Starlight" who, year after year take this pilgrimage to the old Eastern Sho' and the "strawberry country." Happenings of Interest In the City of Baltimore TRAINING SCHOOL GIRLS Instead of the regular "Class Day" exercises, the members of the senior class of the Teachers' Training School at Sharon Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon. A large and critical audience filled the church and listened with rapt attention to the addresses by the members of the faculty of the school as well as the numbers rendered by the members of the class. Most of the addresses dealt with the serious issues of the school's various relations to community interests. The speakers dealt with the necessity of cooperation between the parent and teacher to the end that the child might receive the greatest benefit. Prof. Joseph H. Lockerman, principal of the school, said that over four hundred young men and women had graduated from the Teachers' Training School and declared that the school could not be estimated. Other members of the faculty who spoke, were Mr. Lewis H. Murray and Miss Frances L. Murphy. It was a thoughtful tribute to the work of Dr. W. M. Alexander in the interest of education in this city, that the first departure from the "lighter side" of the church pressing duties and responsibilities of those who graduate, should be held in the church of which he is the pastor. The sermon to the senior class will be prescheduled on Sunday, June the first day of the month. Methodist Episcopal Church by the pastor, Rev. Dr. W. Simpson Brooks.

The Price of This Paper Is Three, (3) Cents Pay'No More At Any Time, Anywhere PRICE THREE CENTS Wonderful Strides Made Under Leadership of Secretary Booker. Association a Social Center. Probably no institution in the city has been more a centre for social workers than the colored Young Men's Christian Association, located at 1619 Gold Hill Avenue, rootwithstanding the cramped quarters and inadequate facilities, wonderful strides have made under the leadership of General Secretary S. S. Booker. During the two years he has been in charge of the work here, not only succeeded in giving the confidence of the people, but he has built up the membership from 97 to over eight hundred. In the report of the General Secretary for the year ending April, a great deal of information is brought to light concerning the work of the association, with reference to some of the reports read reads: 16 affection, the association has taken special interest in the youth of the city. More than 318 men and boys have been interviewed and advised in some Three hundred and sixty women have been directed to houses, railroad stations, bathhouses and restaurants. More than this, the association has become a centre for visitors, athletic teams and travelers who stop at route North and and have building from all parts of the country and especially from the Southland. "The association has held eleven membership socials, one hundred and fifteen committee meetings and group conferences in the interest of work. There have been in the twenty-three religious meetings, sixteen life problem group meetings and a six day Bible Institute with a general attendance of two eleven five hundred persons, three these meetings and a attendance of one thousand six hundred men. The association furnishes some recreation to the men. The pocket billiard room adds much interest to the life of the building. Two hard-dried different members have played five or more games through the year, and many members have been conducted and two matches with out-of-town clubs. "The social room is provided with five checker boards and several other games of interest. We can-date reading room in more than fifteen with paper and magazines is open to all. "With all we have done it amounts to little when compared to the great need and unusual opportunity that must be ours in the future. We not made much progress in constructing the rooms we are, limited in means and equipment. We can truthfully say that we have made a little progress during the year in which all hands have helped and every member of the brotherhood deserves to be grateful to the members of all the committees for the way in which they worked. AN OPEN LETTER TO THE TEACHERS. PASTORS AND CIVIC WORKERS AMONG COL- ORED PEOPLE. Perhaps never before has there been such an opportunity offered the colored people as is offered now for employment, outside of mental work. Women in factories and plants; men in almost every line of work; women in being at good wages and congenial hours. Advertisements in the daily and weekly papers calling for hundreds of men and women are seen every week, so there is absolutely no excuse for not finding work to make a living. Wages, in many instances, are not paid, as being offered, frequently for all the year round workers. Every race man knows just how unreliable much of this labor is among our people, and it is up to the race leaders to emphasize, for the people becoming reliable workers. From every public and from every rostrum. In every school room and in every civic society emphasis should be placed on this particular phase of our activity or inactivity. It is all very well for us to contend with it, but it is equally prudent that we should be taught how to live in this world while we are here and have to contend with things as we find them. Right living here will be all the preparation we need for living elsewhere. We are helping our teachers, and all others who have the ear of the race to emphasize this particular thing. A few words after the sermon, morning and evening, will in our judgment, help greatly along this line. Our future depends greatly upon how we take advantage of our present opportunities. We will build a race. We believe you will. THE AFRICAMERICAN. DUBois CIRCLE CLOSES. At the closing meeting of the Du- bois Circle, held on last Friday even- ing at the residence or Mrs. George E. Fry, the principal speaker was Dau- E. E. DuBois of New York, editor of the Crisis. COLONEL MIDNIGHT AT COMMENCEMENT Orangeburg, S. C.—Have you ever had the pleasure of standing before an audience and delivering your soul so to speak? I mean to ask if you have ever been a graduate in any school or from any school, and if you have you know what these times mean. You know what it is to stand before the professor and orate time and time again, getting ready for the day they call commencement. day the commencement day, for it is the ending of school and many leave the school room to never return again while others keep on going until they can't go no more, and then the end of time. I have been to school, and I have been to some school commencements in the past few days. I have seen young men and young women get diplomas, and then I have been called upon to say a few words to some of them. I was at the commencement of Voorhees Industrial School in Denmark, and there I heard Hdn. J. C. Napier make a speech, and he made a telling talk to these people, believe me. He is one man who knows how to talk, and I believe he had some to do with inventing it. I am sure you are acquainted with Hon. J. C. Napier, because he is president of the National Negro Business League which is to meet next August in Chattanooga, the historic place and I am told that they expect to hold one session on Lookout Mountain which will be a good place for such a meeting. The people will be given an opportunity to see things and to hold things down in their estimation. I am delighted beyond expression to have heard this great man, and what he told to the young people. At the Florida Baptist College, I was invited to make a speech and I made one too. I told those young people about the war and war times, and then I told them to go out in the world and make something. I told them how much better prepared they are for wars now than me and General Grant were when we were fighting. That battle has been fought and the victory won and all America is united as never before to meet the enemy. He has not been over here to bother us yet, but we are going over there to see him and to see what we can hear from him. We are going to sweep him away if possible. The people in the United States are the lightest people in the world. They had 18 young people to graduate from this school. I want to congratulate Prof. N. W. Collier on his good work, and then I would remember Prof. Martin A. Menafee, of Denmark. He is one man who knows how to run a school. He is a business man if you wilt listen to what I tell you about it. He took time to get trained. Getting through with Prof. Menafee, and back to Jacksonville, and then a trip to St. Augustine with Rev. J. E. Ford, D. D., pastor of Bethle Institutional Baptist Church, and one of the best preachers in this country. It is always a pleasure to be with Dr. Ford. Returning to the school I had the pleasure of talking with Miss Sarah A. Blocker, and others and then off to another part of the world. I made a trip from there to Bartow. Fm., found many strawberries on the road. Enjoyed eating some of them. Back to Jacksonville, where I touched the Rev. Dr. John A. Gregg, president of Edward Waters College, and one of the leading men in the African Methodist Episcopal Church. They are now getting into his commencement, and it promises to be something great. Dr. Gregg is one of the ministers of the A. M. E. Church with a good record and who is devoted to his work, his church and his God. I was delighted to see him and to talk with him from time to time. I would nominate him right now for the episcopacy, but that is too far off. The delegates are going to look after that in due time. I will not be able to tell you about Bartow, because I want to get through with the school question. I made it to this place because I was invited here by Miss Helen Wilkinson, the daughter of the president, to see her graduate. That young woman will make one more address. She knows how to speak, and is as modest as a young woman should be. It was to me pleasure to hear her speak, and to see how well she had down her address. God bless her and keep her forever. Getting through with her, next found me on my way to hear the others. Now about this institution. It is the state school. The Governor came down to the school to see what his people were doing. He is just one busy man, but not too busy to look after the school. I heard all the address, and then turned my attention to some of the things I had seen or heard. I think it is wrong to parade the faults of a minister, hence I am not going to tell you about the blunders made by the Rev. Dr. R. D. Brooks, of Alken, S. C., who was fired one hundred dollars for toting a shooting pistol. I thought all Americans would be allowed to tote a pistol now because we are in war. Dr. Brooks had been at war with his members, and they wanted to get rid of him. They said all manner of things about him and called him everything but a child, whether he deserved it or not. They were arrested, and I am told that they even engaged with selling strong I know this is not true, but I do know that the judge told him that he must leave town, and be out before the next day, and believe me they said that he gave me judge about three hours change, and is now away. I don't know as you know the Rev. Dr. Erooks, but he is a big man. He was a ring leader in the affairs which walked out of the National Baptist Convention. He was in the walkouts. I am praying for him and do not want to tell you about his mistakes. With a sad heart, I noted last week the death of Editor A. P. P. Caldwell. He was a fine man, and not only published a paper himself, but worked on one of the Philadelphia papers. He served his people and served them well, but he is no more in this world. People are still leaving the South, and a few more things like happened in Memphis a few days ago and we will all be gone. When we civilized Americans, with our culture, soak a in oil, we can hang him up, set him on fire and see the flesh drop from his bones, whither are we drifting? I ask the question without comment. God is not dead, and one day soon He will wake up. I will not say much about this. Thousands of people are leaving the South, and others will follow later. I want them to remain, but if powerless when I see so much going on. I will have more to say to you about this another time. We are not going to stand all things. This is our country and we are being told that. I hope that some day the American flag will float over us all at home as well as abroad. God hasten the day. We are going to die right by the side of the white man if we are to do any fighting. His fight will be ours and our fight will be his. We are Americans. I shall have more to say to you. J. O.

In deciding on what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomada that has stood the test of time. It is the invention of a New York chemist and is made under the personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist of many years' experience. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. It makes the hair soft, smooth and glossy, and easy to put up in the style desired. To get the best results from the use of Quinade the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and contains no animal fat of any kind. It lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp, unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. If your drugrist or dealer does not stock these two for you, please contact them for you from his wholesale. The price is 95 cents each. Write to Seeby Dr. Co. 79 East 130th street, New York City for a sample, mentioning the name of this paper.

TAKES NUXATED IRON to obtain renewed strength, power and endurance after the ancient fought political campaign of his life in when he was elected Congressman from the State of Illinois. The results derived from asking Nuxated iron were so surprising that曼努尔 Nuxated iron should be made known to every nervous, run-down anaemic man, woman and child. Opinion of Doctor Howard James, late of the Manhattan State Hospital of N. Y., and formerly Assistant Physician Brooklyn State Hospital, who has prescribed and thoroughly tested Nuxated iron in his own private practice. Senator Mason's championship of Pure Food and Drugs legislation has strong advocacy of all bills favoring labor and the rights of the masses as against taxes and combines, made him a national figure at Washington and ennured him to the position throughout the United States. Senator Mason has the distinction of being one of the really big men of the nation, intelligent thinking reader that it must be a preparation of very great merit and one which the Senator feels is bound to be of great value to the masses of people everywhere. He especially after the strong advocacy of pure food and drugs. Since Senator Leigh has obtained such an enormous sales force militant in annually-used organ preparations are recommended as a substitute for it. DALSY HAPPENINGS HARPERS FERRY NOTES. Former United States Senator. Wm E. Mason, recently elected Member of the United States Congress from Illinois. Senator Mason's statement in regard to Nuxatated Iron was shown to several physicians who were requested to give their opinions therons. Dr. Howard James, late of the Manhattan State Hospital of N. Y., and formerly assistant physician Brooklyn State, Hospital said: "Senator Mason is to be commended on handing out this statement on Nuxatad Iron for public print. There is nothing like organic iron to strengthen strength, snap, wore and staying power. It enriches the blood, brings roses to the cheeks of women and is an unfailing source of renewed, vitality, endurance and power for men who burn up too easily by their nervous energy in a tenacious business competition of the day." Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has studied abroad in great European medical institutions, said Mason is right to raise a bounty to over organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders. "Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly a half century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life insurance. I was natanished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of twenty and of vigor; him with the same of young men; you might be really notwithstanding his age. The secret he said was making organic iron-Nuxolized iron had filled him with renewed life. At thirty he was in bad health; at forty-six he was careworn and nearly all in.

Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food into living tissue. Without it, no matter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without doing anything to it. You can only out of it and as a consequence you become weak, pale and sickly taking just like a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the following test. See how long you live, how long you live without becoming weak. Next take two 5 gram tablets of ordinary nurged iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see how much you have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, run-downdown pauses who were tired of strength and endurance and entirely tired themselves of all symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles in from ten to fourteen days time simply by taking iron in the proper form. And this after they had in some cases been doctoring for them, taking taining and not taking or reduced iron, iron accuse or tincure of iron simply to save a few cents. The iron demanded by Mother Nature for the red coloring matter in the blood of her children is alas, not that kind of iron. You must take iron in a form that is absorbed and not reduced to do you worse, otherwise it may prove worse than useless. NOTE—Nuxated iron which is prescribed and recommended above by physicians in such a great variety of cases, is not a patent prediction nor secret remedy, but one which is well known to druggists and whose frog constituents are wily prescribed by eminent physicians both in Europe and America. Unlike the older inorganic iron products, it is easily associated, does not injure the teeth, make them black, nor upset the stomach, on the contrary it is a most potent remedy in nearly all forms of indifference as well as for nervous rar-dow conditions. The manufacturers have such great conscience in minced iron that they offer to forfeit $100.00 to any charitable institution if they cannot make any man or woman under 50 who lacks iron, and increase their strength 100 per cent or over in four weeks' time provided they have no serious organic trouble. They also offer to refund your money if it does not at least double your strength and endurance in ten days' time, it is dispensed by all good druggists. Chestertown, Md.

For 17 years I was tormented with a terrible skin disease which the doctors called EUZEMA. It set me at times almost crazy from tiring. During those years, I went to hospitals and tried about 30 doctors without relief. The disease never checked. My son took me to Dr. Campbell, the specialist, 1359 N. Carey street, Baltimore. Md. He treated me months and I am now completely cured. My brother happens to suffer such awful skin disease, so to Dr Campbell, who I believe, can cure anything a person was not born with, and he is, to my relief, the best doctor in the world. MRS.

RALTIMORE, JUNE 2, 1917- No people in the world can bes the Negro in the kitchen or on the farm, Here is where, the raco can sere,” says a commencement orator toa group of Southern graduates. No ‘one paid much attention to him for the Southerners are still migrating northward in order to best other peo- ple In something else as well. DRIRELE OR STREAM? ‘There are two Ways OF AFrivine * the number of colored people who for “various reasons have left the South ‘and sought homes in the North, One way is, of course, to determine how many people have left thelr homes in the South. ‘The other way is to de- termine how many strangers have re- cently settled in the North. Either of these two methods pursued ac- curately would eventually bring to Jight the extent of tho migration, A Gonfusion of these two methods and a happy imagination have enabled ‘authorities on the migration to arrive at very curious results. For example, x correspondent of the Union Springs, Aktbama Herald ‘quotes a Commissioner of the Depart- ment of Labor to the effect that “he- tween. 20,800 and 30,000 Suthers Negroes have migrated to the North- ern States during the past year.” “Realizing how woefully small these figures are, the correspondent adds “since the Negro started job-hunting in the North, the communities in a number of Souchern states have been deserted.” ‘In the current number of the “crisis” Dr. W. E. B. DnBols, at: tempts to sumarize the exodus and ft causes and effects. Dr. Dubois esti ‘mates the number of persens, whe have already left the South as 250,000, He admits that the data at hand arc vague, and have heen collected from a hundred difterent sources. Perhaps the railway compantes tha handle the passengers are in a better position to give. estimates than any other source. It 8 for this reason that the figures of the railway com: panies sent t the Conference of th M.-H! Church, which met recently 4 Gincinnati,. Obio, are more trust worthy Gian any’ newspaper sum “maries could he. According to thes figures, the number of emigrants ir the past year alone is 1,090,009. Surely the “Margin of error” some where is extraordinary. J. TL Duck ery of the Pennsylvania Ki. RB. report ‘over 2,000,000 since January 1 of thi year. As usual, what the house ca reports as a dribble, Ue cock. roach ealls'a great big stream. Somewher tween 20,000 and 2,009,000 Hes th “number of emigrants.

"By WILLIAM ANTHONY AERY. Some 5,000 farmers of Vinginia, un- der the leadership of Jolin B. Merce; who is a ‘Tusliegee-Hampton product, were influenced’ {u the single calendar year of 1913 to improve their methods ‘of work and secure crop ylelds far be- yond the expectations of the most hopeful advocates of the farm demon- stration idea. Eighteen local farm demonstration agents working in twen- ty-two counties of Virginia under the States Relatious Servico South—the fruition itself of the epoch making work of Scuman A, Kunpp—have brought to the Negro farmers not only new ideas'and better metlods of tll ing the:soil and.enring for farm prod- ‘ucts, but alse a new vision of farnt life, fa clearer insight into farming as: @ business: rather than as a mere oceu- pation nnd a deeper sense of respoust- bilicy for the all around education of thelr Doys:amd girls, Let-fuets tell the story of ormuiza- tion's gift {o Virginia, for whatever helps the Negro farmer to increase his earning power iso helps the white peo- ple to make xenutine. progress, During 1916, so Mr. Pierce reports to Bradford Kuapp, chief of the States Relations “Service, South, 449 Nexro corn demon. strators in Virginia, caltivating 2150 eres under improved methods, secured an-averige yield of thirty-three bushels per acre. This was an increased yield ‘of 9.9 pushcis ow demonstration plots over plots-cultivted hy ordinary meth- ‘ods: : In uddition, 1,001 co-operators re- ported a: yield of twenty-four bushels sper acre on 1,952 acres, Granting that a similar result could be obtained hy all those who raise corn it only education could be carried ou broadly, Virginia in a single year would add $10,000,000 to the value of her out- ‘put.of corn. » Who dares to de skeptical or eynical of the Negroes’ Interest: in better'methods of farming in the light of these facts? Corresponding results have been se- cured {nthe small grains demoustra- tions. The average yield of oats per acre.on demonstration plots was 18.9 bushels, representing an Increased yleld of 6.7 bushels and of wheat 16.1 bush- els, representing an increased yield of 55 bushels. Today over 1,000 Negro. farmers are using better methods: of growing small grains on account of the government's Interest In them. Does ail-this pay in dollars and cents, in increased interest in farming, in bet ter homes? ‘To ask the question is to auswer it--certainly! Hay, forage, cover crops! These words commonly mean little, To. the Negro: furmer of Virginia. they now spell snecess on the land, ‘The local deinonstration agents have worked night and day to make farmers understand | ‘the importance of ninking the land ae ‘duce (without wearing it out) more food'for man and beast und this story -of awakening life on the farm. “Community: development along all’ good lines!" ‘This ts the object of the 184: Negro farmers’ clubs which were organized in 1916 throughout Virginia through the co-operation of John B. Pierce and sixteen local demonstration agenta working under the States Re- lations Service and the extension divi. slon-of the Virginia Polytechnic tnsti- tite at Blacksburg;: The total member. | ship of the clubs was 1,838:and repre- sented a progressive, farsighted group of farmers in the. Old Dominion. ‘These clubs made ‘a good beginning in | co-operation by buying. 2.232 tons of. Ime. Five of the local agents cd kept a bulletin board, listing goods for ‘sale and goods wanted. What. do the local, demonstration agents do besides helping the farmers ‘Hl thelr land and grow better crops?| Here is a partlal list, based on Mr. ‘Pierce's 1910 report vf the farm and. farmstend improvements which the’ farmers of Virginia have made with | the advice and assistance of the agents: ‘Buildings erected, 130; farm bulld- {aga painted or whitewashed, 352; san- | itary.-conditions: (farm and: home) im- ‘proved, "033; homes screened against files, 887; farmers furnished with plans and induced to adopt a aystematic ro-| ‘tatton, 136; total acteage put uauer ro- ‘tation, 1,008; drainage ‘system estab- ‘Mstied,-39; home water systems: n-, fitalled or improved, 55; home grounds Amproved,-g04; ‘home. gardens planted ‘or improved, 1,198; farmers induced to ‘save surplus farm products for winter mises 1.573, = 8 “Can there be any question that: the.

ELDER G. P. RODGERS. ‘The preaching of the hour of God's judgment is not a work that was born solely in the mind of man; or ag much as to say, it was not the work of men anxious to bring some new message to the worls, thereby attract- ing the world to themselves, ‘The preaching of the judgment hour, or the cleansing of the sanctuary at the close of the 2300 years of Daniel 8:14, is the result of propuetic fulfillment just as much so as. was the strange message of John the Baptist, who, when. asked who he was, said “I'm the voice of one crying in the wilder- ness, prepare. ye the way of the oLrd, make His paths straight, as said the prophet Esaias! An@ on the day of Pentacost, when every: man heard the gospel in’ his own tongue they said that these men are drunk, but Peter said that “This is that spoken of hy the prophet. Joel: ana he referred to the 2nd chapter of Joel verse 28. and on. And so, every prophetic message must be backe dup by prophecy. and if so backed up, whether believed or not, it is of God are designed of God to purify hearts and to prepare them for important. scenes and solemn events. Now it is agreed’ that the book of Genesis records happenings of the beginning of the world’s history. and likewise the book of Revelation records events that will happen in the end of the. world’s history. Therefore the preaching of Revelation 14:6-10 is @ work committed to the Gospel minister In the end of the world, for the judgment and the end of the world are. closely allied, This is: the point then to be made: if such a mes- sage is being preached to the world, und it ts, then the preaching of that riessage alone is proof positive that we are living in the end of the world. Let us see: If God, as made clear last week. has begun the judging of the righteous dead-and when thru, will of course, then take up the cases o7 the righteous living (By righteous I mean thase who have had tieie names in- scribed upon the Lamb's book of life- it-is clear that-nothing e'xe could re- sult except ths return 0 the Lord as: stated In’ T Thess, 4-12-17, at whieh time the dead. in” Christ. will rise ‘frst and. the jiving | righteous caught up into The alr without tasting ‘deith:—To be continued. ve Samuel T.

Woman's Department Edited By Margaret Black WIVES AND WOMEN She was just a young woman and her married life had been short and to her very sweet. She would never believe one single thing about him—her husband—no not a thing—no matter who told her. Her own mother is mistaken, her father and brother have been fooled, and his father, brother and mother are prejudiced against her and his sisters are treacherous. Her friends are abusive, they never cared for him anyway, and as good as told her she was a fool to marry him. They don't know him. How can they? Nobody understands Robert, but Honor, his wife. But I really wonder if she understands Robert. She has arisen later feeling very ill, and she had not felt better after she looked in the glass. Her face was splotched and saggy-looking with great dark circles under the eyes. Her nose was swollen and red. And a persistent cough racked her body and her voice sounded like a worn out megaphone and just like she was talking thru a sponge. She had caught a cold and it was at its most disagreeable stage. Ker-chou Ker-chou. "Oh, dear!" she exclaimed. "Do what I will I guess! I must always catch cold at the wrong time." She knew perfectly well how she came by it. Robert and taken out an automobile party, two days before, the Smith's and Alice Tayman her boarder. She had refused to wear her thick coat because it was old and shabby and she wanted to look as nice as Alice Tayman who insisted on standing in front bestie Robert. At Centerville, the car broke down. It was at the garage three hours, and when she reached home Honor was stiff and blue with cold. She got little sympathy from Alice Tayman, who told her she looked like a frozen chicken, which of course made her angry. "It's your own fault," said Robert. "You should have worn your heavy coat. I can't see why you act so much like a silly child, you make me tired." She knew it was her own fault, but she thought he need not have reminded her of it, she has been his wife six long months, and she was not used to unkind words from him. She wooed if she would ever be. Then when she thought of how he spoke before Alice and how Alice tittered and looked at Robert, as though she approved of what he said and how he said it, it made her feel blue indeed, and she buried her face in her pillow and sobbed her very heart out, but that didn't help any, and she only looked more of a fright than ever. Then Robert had come to her room, and when he found she was unable to rise and give him his breakfast he had patience immediately, because he was so particular about his coffee which he wanted as clear as crystal, and his eggs boiled exactly three minutes, and his toast piping hot. He was said clear through, and told Alice to come on, they would get their breakfast at the Pelham's Boarding House, and had gone out shaming the door behind them. When mom came, he did not even ask how she felt, but just phoned up and said he would get his lunch down town. About three clock she combed her hair and twisted it into a careless though unbecoming knot. The doctor had dropped in on his way to his office and advised her to keep on taking the medicine and keep warm and cheerful. She made some preparation for dinner—stuffed a duck and put it on to roast, fixed a nice tomato and lettuce salad, with his favorite dressing and put it on ice and baked a lemon custard. There is nothing nice a good meal to restore a man to good humor, she thought; and roast duck and tomato salad are Robert's special fancies. Cuddled among the pillows on the couch, close to the radiator she closed her eyes and fell to thinking of Robert herself and Alice Tayman, and many other things. Robert was not a handsome man, but he was dashing and stylish, he attracted attention everywhere, and he had a way with women that won them. He had won her, but not easily. He had beid of a long time, frankly afraid to marry a man. Suppose he should tire of her? Was he really tired of her in six short months? She was neither beautiful nor handsome. But she had loved him and stood by him when others had lost faith in him and condemned him. She had never believed any thing she heard about him, and so she took her chance of being happy with him with her eyes open. She had commenced to fear those chances had been large and uneven. She had been considered a good natured little fool. She had been jealous of him many times. She had seen him admire other women while she stood by unnoticed. But she believed and endured. Her mother had told her to use common sense and not go around dreaming and thinking any man was a god, which seemed to be her case. Alice Tayman was the latest addition to the town's younger set, and she was beautiful, and Robert loved beauty, and she had never seen him so crazy about any woman before. She robbed as she remembered, and her eyes got redder and her nose got soppier than ever. The door bell rang a joyous summoning, yeal which she must obey. But she had not expected what she found—Alice Tayman, vivid, stylish, smiling. "I thought you had your key" said Honor. "Oh, dear. I always forget, as I never bothered with a key at home," said Alice. "You poor dear you, what a cold you have, and you've been trying too. Tears and influenza, the worst peace destroying combination known. Let me come in and comfort you." This was the last thing Alice could do, but Honor patiently led her back to the overheated den. "Oh, what a temperature, Alice protested, as she flung off her coat and hat. But I suppose in your condition you don't mind it. I've been walking fast and my blood is in a glow and I'm always so healthy you see." "You're very lucky" said Honor, feebly. "Now, Mrs. Deane, do you really think you caught cold on your motor ride? I thought the weather was perfect, what one would call ideal spring weather. I'm afraid, dear you won't get to Mrs. Triggs' whist party tomorrow evening. I've just come from the dressmaker's. She's finishing my new gown. It's rose georgette crepe. Of course, Iron—Mr. Deane—will go even if you don't go. Or is he so devoted that he can't enjoy an evening without you." She laughed, and Honor, gentle and patient tho' she had been, could have killed her. Their eyes met, but clearly Alice had the best of it. She was so beautiful, insolently healthful and triumphant as she sat there, and her manner held such obvious contempt for the small, ailing wife, to whom the great brown leather couch was just then so unbecoming. "Robert's devotion to me will bear inspection I think," Honor answered quietly. "And I'm sure I can't tell you whether he intends to go to the whist without me or not." At that instant the door opened and Robert stood on the threshold, smiling and radiant. "Hello," he said to Honor, and "how are you Alice?" "You're home eury," Honor murmured. She wondered if the thing had been precarranged between Alice and Robert. "I came to see how you are," he said: "I'm better, thank you." "Doesn't look it does she?" Robert inquired of Alice. "No: poor dear. She looks frightful. I guess I'll go to my room and get ready for dinner." and picking up her coat and hat, she sauntered carelessly out of the room with a song on her lips. Robert pulled his chair up to the radiator, stuck his feet up on the top and leaning comfortably back said "Honor. I'm hungry, how near is dinner ready?" "It will be ready in a few minutes," said Honor as she slowly got off the couch and went to the kitchen. She dished up the dinner, set it on the table, rang the bell and went to her room. Robert and Alice arrived to the dining room at the sound of the bell, as both were hungry, but no Honor was there. "We won't wait," said Robert, "Honor will be along pretty soon, she's not feeling well." They ate their dinner and then went to the den again. Robert was enjoying his smoke along with the talk of a pretty woman and seemingly had forgotten Honor when he was surprised by hearing the clock strike nine. "So late" said Robert, "I must see what has become of Honor." Going to her room he discovered the light turned on rail, and on her dresser a long business looking envelope with "For Robert" on it in big black letters. Opening it he found just these few words, "Am going home, if you really want me in your home and truly love me, you'll find me at mother's when you come for me. Honor: Robert stared, and for a few minutes he was dazed. Coming to his senses he ran down the steps, grabbed his hat off the rack and rushed out of the house. Honor went home as the she had just dropped in for an evening, and no one knew that she had planned to leave Robert if he did not come for her that evening. While talking to her mother the door bell rang, and Robert came in with a rush. "Where's Honor," he said "I want to see her right away." But Robert had not heard, he had rushed into the sitting room, and grabbed Honor into the arms and was holding her as she 'never intended to ever let her go again. "Are you two crazy?" asked Honor's mother. "No," said Robert. "We've just found each other, at least I've just found myself." "Worse and more of it," said the small brother. But they neither heard nor cared. "Get your wraps. Honor, and let us go home," said Robert. Honor struggled with herself all the way home. Arriving home she said "Robert, are you going to the whist party without me?" Robert stared at her. "Good heavens, no. I never go anywhere without you, do I? Whatever put that in your head? Ey the way, if you haven't a heavy motor coat to wear motoring these cool days you'd better get yourself one. I've got some money now. I sold that old Mason property today to old man Dorsey for a warehouse. I've been after the old codger for nearly three weeks, but he is the slowest old fellow to deal with you ever saw. He's kept me on pins and needles. But today he invited me to lunch and he was ready for the property and would take it off my hands at my own price. Now you get a coat a fur lined one like Mrs. Smith's. "But hers cost $300," cried Honor amazed. "Oh Robert," Honor faltered, "looking really joyous and happy. "Now, I'll clean up the dishes," she said. "Do you feel equal to it?" Robert asked. Honor laughed. "Why I'm almost well," she cried. Just then Alice entered the room. "Mr. Deane" she said, "I've just come to tell you. I have another boarding place and am leaving in the morning." She dropped her handierchief as she was leaving the room. As Robert restored it to her she looked him full in the eyes. "Take good care of her," she pleaded. "I will," he answered shortly, as he closed the door behind her. "Come on Honor, he said, "you wash and I will dry the dishes and we will soon get straight. Thank the Lord we'll soon be so ourselves." Honor was thanking Him also. But just held her face for a kiss and laughed, she was so very, very happy. YOU MIGHT TRY Don't throw away your scorched milk. Pour into a clean vessel and when cold the burned taste will be gone.
