"Six girln all in one family—and

“and I will cease to be n'

"Don't be too sure. you may not
suit!" lauizllctl Aunt. Julia.
“Ouch!" winced Arthur. “Of'
course you know i don't pose as a
'sheik.‘ Aunt Julia."
She laughed softly. "You're scared
to death of girls. Arthur, we all
know it—I can remember when we
used to fairly drive you into a Chil-
dren's party. You always wanted to
put your little gift down and run
home.”
"And what are your plans for me
this evening!" he asked. ‘
"Supper (not dinner, mind you).
Supper at. tho Dillaways. and the
evening there.”
“Nothing better for me!"‘

That evening as he passed rcview
and was presented to lilo Dillawny
girls. Arthur was quite breathless
with amazement. Surely. Aunt Julia
had not prepared him for such a
vision of pulchritude~all of the
girls were amazingly pretty.
"i thought there were six of you."
Arthur conildcd to handsome Joan. a
younger edition of her father.
"Six?" She rapidly took stock of
her sisters—“Marion is missing.
Probably prinking," she added in the
frank manner of the family. Pres-
ently two young men arrived who
were introduced as Tom Allen and
Frank Gray—they proved to be the
ilancos of Sara and Leslie.
"Where's the flower of the fam-
ily?" asked Tom Allen pleasantly.
"isn't Marion here?" Doctor Dilla-
way went to the Japanese gang and
rapped it vigorously.
“Coming, father," said a. languid
voice from the head of the stairs.
and an electric shock seemed to go
through the family.
“I‘ll bet this is the one. she picked
out for me," he thought. They were
all looking toward the stairs down
which a. slender form was slowly
coming. Arthur saw first a. pair of
very narrow feet. very long—pointed
slippers, with ankle straps over white
cotton stockings, a very simple blue
fl‘tltk in which almost any girl
would look pretty. a rounded white,
neck and the oddest face Arthur hudl
ever Fi‘l'll. ller features were soft,
They went into the dining—room
and Arthur found himself sitting be-
tween Joan and Rose with Marlon
directly opposite. I
"Why were you so surprised to
see me." asked Arthur across the
table.
"i thought you were a little boy-—
I was surprised to find you grown
up." she said demurely, looking at
him with her painfully crossed eyes.
"We have all grown up‘," he said
menuingly.
“You cannot, possibly remember
us." OXI'laimed ltoso vivaciously.
“You only came here once and have
lived in California all these years"——
Arthur fixed accusing eyes on
Marion. «“I remember Miss Marlon
well; she gave me her picture when
i went away."
“Have you got it with 30ll'.‘"llskcd
Rose.
“\\'hy‘yes. I had left it in tho

lie passed the kodnk picture to Mrs.
llillnwny who saw it to her hus-
band with a despairing smile. .lt
was the picture of a very beautiful
child, with liquid dark eyes. On her
nose was balanced a pair of spec-
tacles and she was wenrimr an old
lady's bonnet on her tangled curls.
and a long skirt that trailed the
ground.
"You are still fond of ‘dressing
up.’ aren't you?" asked Arthur.
She blushed divinely, and removed
her spectacles. She took two hair-
pins out and shook. her bobbed
curls—
"Now. I know," said Arthur
boldly, “why they call you the
Flower of the Family."
Doctor Dillaway arose and lifted
his class of water. “This is Marion's
birthday, and it is the custom of my
girls to masquerade on their birth- '
days, appearing in the guise~of what
they think they will look like some
day."
“I always thought of you as
my little sweetheart." said Arthur.

Common Errors in English and How
to Avoid Thom
By C. N. LURIE
.—
TO STOP AND TO STAY
How frequently do we hear
someone say, or road in a.
newspaper. "ho is stopping at
the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel." A mo-
ment's reflection should tell the
writer or speaker that a. person does
not "stop" at a hotel unless he walks
or drives to the hotel and halts his
progress there. It is proper to say.
"The parade stopped nt‘ tho hotel.‘
meaning that the parade ceased its
motion when it rcachcd the hotel.
But the parade could not “sin?" It
the hotel. '
A person makes a "stay" at a.
hotel. not a stop. and he stays there.
One should not say. “I stopped at.
the summer resort six weeks." but
"I stayed there six weeks." .
The truo meaning of tho wor
"stop" was well understood by the
man who did not invite his professed
friend to visit him. He said: “If you
come at any time within ten mile.
of my house. just stop," says one
authority on English.

THE RADIO PRIMIR‘
Ono Dally Fact for Listen».
The Ampere is the unit of electric
current. Remember the analogy that
we described recently in the Prima-
when we were discussing the ohm:
the analogy of a. stream of water
flowing through a. pipe. '
In this can you an interested
primarily in how much water you
get through the pipe. You might
say that the water in your house
tlowcd l0 slowly that you could draw
only one gallon in a minute. This
would be, in effect. a measurement
of the current of water in your pipe.
It would be measured in the water-
cumnt unit of gallons-per-minutc.
You-can (lo—and electricians do
do—Just this same thing with the
electric current. We measure it in
amperes, which is the electrical
equivalent of gallons-per-mlnute. An
ampere is a certain quantity per
per second.
As a matter of fact. the electron
is so inconceivably tiny a particle of
electricity that one ampere is equal
to a current of about 60.000.000.000.-
000,000.000 electrons passing through
a. wire in a second.
the current will deposit from a silver
solution (as in the art of silver plat-
ing). For ordinary purposes the
amperes or mlcroampercs (one thou-
with tho loop and tuned from insidcisandlh of an ampere) are measured
by a loop of string or in any other
way.
The crystal generator of the Rusv
clan experimenter, M. Lossev. con-
tinues to attract sonic attention in
by an instrument called an ammeter,
but these unmeters have been stand-
ardized in the first place by com-
paring them with the amount of
silver that the current will plate out.

HOME AGAIN
We‘re home again! What words are

No minstrel‘s song, no poet's meter.
”are ever found a happier phrase
Thun "home again!" The sunlight
plays
Upon the peaks, but feet returning
Beck little rules with candles burning
No voice can sing, no hand can pen.
A sweeter thing
Than “home again!"
Ah. home again!
dearer?—
To. know our hearth is growing
nearer,
A window smiles. a chair awaits.
For men must pass through little
gates
To find the Joys of largest measure.
Life never gives a greater pleasure,
thrc'er We go. if hill or ten.
Than .1th to know
We're home again.
What thought is
Yes, home again. a. home like
Mother's,
To gentle sisters. sturdy brothers,
To loves of old that love us yet,
To fricnde we never can forget.
Old paths to walk. old springs to
drink of.
Old dreams to dream. old things to
think of—
We seek for Joy. and find it when
We come, my boy,
Back homo again!
