In any event. the first dys job ought to be what to do in case it doesn't tum out just as you hopkl. Remember. of course, that scalp ‘ ts, meticulous regarding and special percautions regarding permanent waves are more necess- ary thanievor once you've taken the dye step. Rub hot oll into your scalp the night before you sham- poo. Brush gently but thoroughly every night of your life and before you make an appointment for a pennanent, reassure yourself that the operator has had great experi- ence wlth dyed heads. Hair which shows streaksof grey ought to be tinted Just enough so it will be the natural color it o1- ways has been. If you have brown and gray hair don't try to change it all to black. Have the operator use dye that matches perfectly the brown tones. If you have bleached for years, have several reconditioning treat- ments before you make an appoint- ment for a dye process which will turn your hair the color it was be- fore you used a bleach. Any reli- able beatutlcian will tell you that bleaching often has a tendency to weaken the hair and unless you get it into healthier, stronger condition, the business of dyeing it back to normal isn't likely to be pleasing to you. SMALLEST BIRD Among the many wonders of the New World stands out the re- markable humming-blrd. Remark- able, not for its greatness. but for ‘its smallness. It is ‘the smallest bird in the entire world. It moves its wings so rapidly in its flight through the air that a humming noise is produced. This is how the bird receives its name. The rate of the movement of the wings is five and six times as fast as the propeller of an airplane usil- ally travels! They move so rapidly tl"\‘ ll that is seen by the eye is a blur. Two hundred times per second is the surprising beat of these wings! This motion of the wings drives them through space at the rate of a mile a minute. Much of the life of these birds is spent on the 1-5; and théy develop strong wing-nlirscles. These are used by them to great advantage. They can hover over the mouth of a flower while they dip out the nectar. Their size is so small that while they are near a large flower, they are completely dwarfed. They are no bigger than a half-dollar! These tiny specks are the only birds that can flv backwards. They merely reverse the beat of their wings. No other bird has this pow- er. They can also use their air pow- ers to rise straight up in the air di- rectly over any point. Although they are no bigger than one and one-fourth inches in length, they have no hes'tancy in attacking the crow and the hawk.

J; W. BOULTEI. Secretory. LII-GIN CIIAYEB. XIII Kay had many invitations that winter, and despite Geusvieveb oc- casional guarded advice to the con- trary, she accepted most. of them. "I know it's silly to go out so much," she admitted to the older girl, "but. I can't help it, Genovievo. I feel as if time was so short for me; I feel as if I had to hurry, hurry. I don't particularly enjoy it. gadding around wlth_one boy after another. But I can't just come home and go to bed, night after night." And Genevieve, relenting, touched her arm affectionately. “Go on, Kay, and have a good time," she assented. "I'm a. crab, that's all . . ." Once or twice Genevieve asked teasingly whether Kay had yet ar- ranged to marry Chick Rantoul; and Key, making a jest of the mat.- ter, tossed her head and retorted": "Oh, I have my plans!" But as a matter of fact she saw Chick only in the oiIice. Ho was extremely busy. A partnership had been accorded him, and this had the eflect of doublhig his responsi- bilities. Kay heard from Sally Hays that chick went often to Wellesley to see Helen Ripley. "And they're playing duets, now," Sally reported. "You know, walking blissfully around the campus, not saying much. just shoulder to shoul- der like Darby and Joan. Helen's so serious nowadays that you wouldn't know herl" Kay and Genevieve occasionally went out together, with appropri- ate companions; but not often Genevievek friends were for the most. part older than Kay's. Kay was invited to all the Harvard dances; she accepted happily, “Of course." she admitted, "I know they just ask me because I look nice, and dance adequately. But it's fun, just the same. It costs every cent I can save to get enough party dresses, but I've nothing to save up for." "So said the grasshopper," Ge- nevieve reminded her, in mild warning. thought of her own. "Oh, and speaking of grasshoppers," she ox- claimed, “Bob Dakin's engaged!" "Really?" Kay echoed. "I didn't think he was that kind of a man. Matter of fact," she added laugh- ingly, “I've had him on my own list. of prospects! Only I've never really believed he existed. He's a!- ways just around the corner!" "He's engaged to Priscilla Hyde," Genevieve explained. "They grew up together, but I can't imagine her inspiring any devouring pas- sion. Prlscillak never done any- thing passionate in her life. ' She never will. She knows exactly what she's expected to do, and she's carc- ful b0 do it. Bob will be wealthy. of course; and he's brilliant, 1f he'd work; and - good family. Oh, Priscilla knows what she's doing." Kay laughed softly. “If I ever meet him." she declared, "I'll rub my eyes and wander, ‘can this be really I?‘ Has Miss Hyde actually met him, do you suppose? He ap- pears to be so elusive. I can't im- agine him paying court to a girl in due form." "I expect his father and mother did most of first."- Genevleve con- fessed, "They're so nice, Kay. I'm going to take you to see them. some day. Bob would do whatever his father wanted; and if his father said, ‘Bob, why don't you marry Priscilla?’ Bob would do it. I don't. think he'd take marriage any more seriously than he takes anything else." She chuckled. "But Pris will bring him up with his toes dig- ging. She'll make him scratch gravel. Five years from now he'll be s. sober old doctor behind a great big beard, looking wise and feeding his patients bread pills. You wait and. see." “I can't wait." Kay said smiling- ly. I've got a date tonight . ." And she asked shrewdly: "You don't like Priscilla so awfully much, do you?" Genevieve said 1n a drawling tone: "She's so worthy! You see, Kay I'm the black sheep of the Dakin family because I've gone into birsinoss. Pris doesn't quite approve of me." ' "The more fool she!" Twice during that winter Kay saw Dane Ripley; once just before Christmas, and once ill February. Each time he took her to the thes- tre, and they found a place for dancing afterward; and he was bold in his devotions, and Kay erected between them a tantalizing barrier. Whenever he became most ardent, she told him some news of Emily, and how happy she was with George, and about. tho baby that would.‘ be coming soon. Dane pro- tested more than once: “I'm tired of hearing about Emily, Kay, You're the one I'm interest- ed m3. “Why, you were devoted to her!" Kay reminded him. "You've told mo so, often enough. 1'm sure you're secretly heartbroken that she mar- ried another!" “Another he blowed!" he said ox- ploslvely. "She can have her grocer and welcome. " "He's the best grocer in Carvel," Kay told him stoutly. "George is a very solid, dependable young man. "Dependable!" l-ils tone was full of scorn. “Well, of course you wouldn't ap- preciate that quality." Kay agreed. “But Emily likes it; and I think it's rather a nice trait in o man." He chuckled. "You're a devilish young one." he assured her. "Barb: under your tongue! But I'd be do- pcndablo for you!" "I'd want you under bonds for good behavior." she declared. 11c came to Boston again, just be- fore Easter, with a plan to pro- pose. "I want you to come down to the boot race in June," he said. "Harry Msnnls yoing to‘ nave s bunch of us m his yacht. It's a pooch, half u big as an ozeun liner. Thorfll be mostly n Now York crowd, but Bally Hays is com- She laughed at. some‘ lng. We'll sec the race from the yacht, and cruise down the Bound afterward!" Kay laughlngly dcmurrod: "You know very well I'm n working gur- reLWhoamItobotamptedby yachts and deml-tasscs and such lniqulties?" , "Nothing iniquitous about lt," he assured her. "I'll promise you shan't see a derni-tasse from start to fin- ish; and Harry's aunt is coming along as s. chaperonc. She's the ideal type; divides her time be- tween tatting and sleeping." And he urged: "What do you say I'll give you s. grand time. We can slip away together, if we get tired of the‘ yacht. I'll have my car." "It's to rich for my blood." Kay told him, almost ruefully. "A row- boat is nearer my speed. Dane. You're sweet to ask me, and I up- preciate it . -. . . "Kay," he urged, suddenly husky, "I'd like to do a lot for you. Give mo a chance, won't you? I haven't a. yacht; but I could manage a row- boat. You and I could get along.” He said honestly. "I don't. like Bos- ton. It cramps ma. But you'd find me different, on my home grounds. I've coma to this forsaken town twice this winter just to see you. That gives you some idea. where you stand with me. Come on, Kay. Do be nice to me!" "I know what you're thinking." she insisted, amused. "Once aboard the lugger and the gal is mine!’ And she said seriously: “Dane, I'm —unattached, working for a living. I have to stick to the job!" "You'll nbt be unattached if I can attach you," he said in laugh- ing persistence. "Give o. fellowa break, Kay." He could not persuade her to con- sent. "But I'm not giving up," he warned her when he sold good-bye. "I'll write you. The invitations open, Kay. If you won't come, I'll be the only stag in the party." ‘ “You'll rind someone else," predicted. "No others need apply," he as- sured- her. lie kissed her good-bye. “Think it over," he insisted, "I'll keep in touch with you." When he was gone she toldGene- vleve what he proposed. The older girl asked in a noncomrrutal tone: "Going?" Kay shook her head. "If any of the crowd from here were going, I might. Of course, Sally Hays . . . But Sally can go places and do things that — staggers me a little." Genevievefsaid, watching her: “Well, you set out to bring Dane to his knees, Kay. You've done 1t, haven't you?" “Heavens, no," Kay confessed, laughlngly at herself. "Oi course. he gives me a rush, and. tries to maul mo and L! that. But-every- thing nice he says inways sounds like a quotadon. I can imagine him saying the same things to Emily. Yet the funny part is, I like him." She said with something like a shudder: "I hate to think what. might have happened if he'd mar- ried Emily. She was so-innccent! Took everything he said at par, I suppose. She'd be miserable now!" "How is she?" Genevieve asked, and Kay said happily: “Fine! She brags about George in her letters, not. too much, not as if she were trying to convince herself; but -- just enough. I be- lleve she's really devoted to him. And happy." "Carve! can't be so bad," Gene- vieve suggested, and Kay laughed and shock her head. "Now don't start that!" she cried. “I wuldfft bear it, Genevieve." "You might grow just as fond of —Eimer. Wasn't that his name? Do you ever hear from him?" "Heavens, no," Kay assured her. "Elmer's not a writing man." An she insisted: "No, darling! Emily can have her Carvel. But not for me." Emily's baby was born in May. It was a boy, to be named George; and Mrs. Brannon wrote that the baby was husky and strong. "Emily isn't getting well as rapidly as 1 wish she might," she confessed. “But I'm making her go slow. It. pays to be patient in such things. George has that big house, you know; so I'm staying over there to do the cooking and take care of Emily. Your father comes there for meals. I hope you'll have s. vaca- tion this summer, so you can come home and see the baby. He's more like Emily than George, 1 think.” And in a subsequent letter she said Emily was still abed; still re- quiring care. “I'm sure she'll be as well as ever by summe ," "sho explained. "She frets because I have ho be there so much, for fear father isn't. comfortable. But. of course he and I are glad to do anything we con. I don't know what we would have done if George hadn't taken father into the store!" Kay asked Genevieve to read the letter. “I'm wondering whether you get the some thing out of it that I do," one explained; and when Gene- vieve had finished, she suggested: “Well, how does 1t seem to you?" “Your mother, sounds tired, and a littlo worried." Genevieve con- fessed. "I think she needs you." CHAPTER XIV she Kay nodded. ‘Then in a sudden wrath, she cried: “Ob, it's hateful! Genevieve. Emily could have lived anywhere, dono anything at all. And instead she's married George, and settled down to having babies, and being. not very well; and I'll bat she looks years older already, and her dresses will bo just a little dowdy, and her hair muued, and her nose shiny from bending over s stove. It's hideous. don't you think so?" "Isn't It a question of what Emily thinks?" the other sug- gested gently. "Oh. she'd be too loyal and fine not to be hgppy and proud," Kay admitted. She bssitstod. “Did you read it all?" she asked, tnk tho letter from GQMVUN‘! hm .

Twice or thrice she was on the point of speaking to Chick about it:; yet each time her courage failed. It was not till June that she found the time and the resolution coinciding. Rantoul had asked her to work with him one evening on a matter which just then engaged his en- ergies; and Kay dcmurred. "Usually I'm glad to." she rc- minded him. "But. I have a date to- night that I made two weeks ago." “Can't you break it?" ho sug- gested gravely.’ After all, that's tho condition under which we work here, you know.
