The smaller the seeds the shallower the ceverlrz should be. Theeccd-bed should never be allowed te become dry, but great care should be taken that tee much water Is net applied. Plants require the no tion of air upon their roots, and an excess of water in the soil will exclude the air. Toe frequent nnd heavy water ings will cause the damplng-eff of the seedlings.

Xlcl: learns tic truth, and is fearful that the has met the man who has the peuw te aicaken her love. In Jcrvil Britten, tche is te play opposite Carel in a drama given for charity, Oarel herself is strongly attracted by Jervls, and is restlessly unhappy. Britten finds himself mere than ordinarily attraettd by Carel and discovers, through Vclma Craven, a jealous, catty iceman, that Carel and Xick are net happy. In the meantime Daisy tcritcs te Sick and aski him te caU. CIIAPTEU XV Desperation "VTICK had never taken Carel te a. -l rehearsal since that first evening. It wasn't thnt he did net want te go. but Kick was proud. He had no wish te piny the spying- husband, and he was almost certain new thnt Carel cared fr Jervls Tlritten. She never men tioned his nnme, but elie teemed te have a new Interest in life and she was mere thnn ordinarily attracted by the play. Perhaps if Nick had taken licr In hnnd. If he had asserted his rights ever her, If he had been anything but hum blv ndnrtne. Carel might hove turned te hitn. Hut bhe was used te his ado ration and it had never awakened any thing in her, while she was quitu con scious new that something in her, something that until new she hnd been unaware of, had stirred into life through her friendship with Jervis Britten. Since that day at tea he had been merely friendly. Even during their intlmate scene together, he took no nrlventaee of her. He was delnu this purpeely; he wonted te plque her; he wanted her net te be frightened when he declared himself again. Vclma Crnvcn watched BriUen play the fcccne with Carel from the sidelines, and although she watched closely she could detect nothing that would she her reason te believe that Ilritten eared for Carel. Carel, tee, was improving In ht-r part. She was letter perfect in her lines, nnd Ehe was able te threw herself Inte the role with mere aban don new that she was net se conscious of Britten's nearness. Velma felt exultantly that the change In Britten was due te the talk they had had together, and she was mere than ever glad thnt she had eald what she had about Carel, as ler carol, Bhe was nt first relieved because of Britten's nloefncss; It gave her a chance te re gain her ba'ance, te think mere clearly. But seen, just us Britten hud known it would, it troubled ner. Mic began te wonder if she no longer Interested him, and for the first ttine she faced the fact that she loved him. Slip admitted the truth agonizingly, her pride humbled te the ground, and sin- tried by every means te tear this feeling out of her heart. But the glamour of Britten was all about her: he spelled romance : te be with him was the one joy she had in life, and te feel that he had let Interest in hei uhlle it was a staggering blew te her pride, did I a great deal te intensify her feeling for blm. The night before the dress 'rehearsal they were going hurriedly through the play for the last time. , Carel had net slept well nnd her nerves were all en edge. She was verv gay, however, forcing herself te laugh and talk se as net te hhew her real feel ings. She played her part desperately. It gave color te her acting, it lifted her out of herself and mnde her a vivid chnraetcr, and ehe was astoundingly beautiful. When Britten caught her in his arms n the second act. she felt n chanre In hlra, and for the first time ehe looked directly into his eyes with something in her own that he hed never seen there before. His arms tightened nbeut her. "Dar ling!" he whispered tensely. Her Inshes dropped and the was con scious thnt he was going en with his part. Thnt one shnrply whispered word hed been for her cars alone. Sheeaueht hvr cue from him and went en with her lln.es, nnd the slight trembling of her veie gave reality te the scene she was plnyvng. Tltcn sudtenly It was ever and a little cheer came from the sidelines. "Carel, you were wonderful," came in Graces voice; "simply wonderful, as geed as a professional," Carel Bmlled, turned toward Grace, and found herself looking Inte Nick's eyes.

Write when you want te Says 8ecend Leve Is Best Dear Cynthia This Is nn answer te Dear "Goulash" Perhaps this may help you with your Problem. I am i a Irtrl of twenty-three and have had quite a little experience with the opposite sex. I would far rather be a man s last love than his tlrst. The only feeling I have new for the first Ieve Ib that If there hadn't been a tlrst there might net have been a second or third. This may sound frivolous, but the people you like at seventeen you rarely care for at twenty three, and the man I leve new Is much different from the ethers. There are exceptions, of ceurse, but aa n rule one learns by cxporlence and comparison. Am I right. C-nthln, or wrong? First Is better In some cases and later le-e in ethers. What 8he Thinks of First Leve Dear Cynthia A few words te "Gou lash." since "Goulash" Is very much Interested In this question which lie asks: What Is a girl's feeling In regard te flm leve and does It mean much or lltWcu "Goulash." I will .try te express my opinion as best I can since- you would like te have seme of the opinions en the above question. Te tell you the truth, this question is net very easy te answer, as every thing depends upon the individuals themselves. There are seme girls that take everything seriously as te their first leve and seme that merely take their leve affairs as a Jeke ; of course, this Is found nmeng both sexes. I think a girl's feeling In regard te nor first leve (If It nvTcnlly love and net Just fickleness) Is mere likely te remain deep down In her heart always, no matter what new levers she may have afterward. When she has given her heart te her first love. It Is hard te forget and, therefore, means a geed deal te her. Hew many of you readers agree with A YOUNG MISS. Welcome Back, "Lieut. B." Dear Cynthia Greetings ! Is there a little space In the geed old column for an "Old Timer"? It lias been well ever a year Elnce my last letter, has It net?

I am reauy te de fend that statement against ull argu ments te the centrarj-. Cynthia, I hate te admit It. but I am mere than disappointed with the column as it appears at present What has I ability te srasn thn -rlfti,i,.. il become of the clean, uhole?emo debates i risk taken ertli. .. .UaMS .of. th of the days gene by?

May I offer a suggestion, Cynthia? Why net appoint yourself a commtttee of ene te censer all letters contributed? I knew you de te a certain extent. But why net refuse te print such "Lraih" aa that submitted by "Handsome" and the rest of the pests belonging te that breed? -It seems te me tliere 13 enough conceit In this world without printing It In capital letters under the peti name ej "Handsome." I must confess that I had Just nbeut reached the point uhcre I felt like sklp p ng jour page oath night. Then ene night I saw u letter which made my bleed bell. Result, this pretest of mlna.

Some -. random uaiia her of making an Inferior wife as compared with these of ferelBn blrtll. isn't it remarnaui--Cynthia, that a nation of women wlv have given us such men as Washlngtet Lincoln, Pershing and hundreds e ethers of equal greatness should be called "Inferior"? . M A The .trouble with most of these "kneckers" Is that they pick the one bad apple out of the barrel and upon the strength of Its appearance condemn the rest of the let There seems te be some doubt as te the true American. But there should net be. It Is net a question of birth or nationality of parents; rather one of sentiment and right thinking. An American Is Any native who loves this country above nil ethers ; loves It enough te sacrifice and stick up for it, right or wrong, and abides by its Constitu tion. America for Americans. It might be well, Cynthia, te remind these foreign eympathlzers and for eigners as well Uiat they were net compelled te come here, neither are they compelled te remain. Let them marry girls of ether nationalities. Who cares? But let them remember that thcre are any number cf men In this country who object most strenuously te naving American gins classed as in ferior matrimonial prospects. When better women are created they will be Americana Even new they are the height of perfection, far above the men tliey marry. I thank you, Cynthia. LIEUTENANT B.
