"Our partnership must end." The
girl spoke decisively. i
"I don't see the reason." objected
the man.

very successfully for several weeks,"
she explaint d. "But we have reached

Our talents will develop if we work
separately."
In splto of the hurt in his eyes Graham
Ford's lips twitched.
"Perhaps I seem ungrateful," Norma
Atwood went on. "I am really
your protege rather than your partner.
I came to the city with tho intention
of devoting my life to newspaper
and magazine work. All my articles
and stories were refused. When
I met you I was utterly discouraged.
I told you my difficulties. You read

and suggestions. We have called ourselves
literary partners.
"Yesterday the Arcade asked me to
furnish them a daily story. These
stories and my work will take all my
time and these morning hours together
must be given up."
Ford's brows drew together. "I un

Two weeks later Norma Atwood
went to the office of the Arcade.
"Mr. Mills," Bhe said to the managing
editor, "you promised to pub

Indefinite period. This morning you
sent back to me a bundle of my
stories accompanied by a letter telling
me to write better ones If I

wished the Arcade to use them. I've
come to ask you what is the matter
with them."
The editor was a direct man and a
frank oue. "They lack snap and
point. Your earlier stories were
clever; these are flat. Write as well
as you did a few weeks ago and no
story will bo returned to you."
I few days later another bundlo of
stories was returned to her.
One evening Graham Ford came to
the littlo flat. It was his first visit
since the dissolution of the partnership.
"How are you getting along?" he
asked abruptly.
"I am very busy," she began bravely.
"Are you selling much?"
"Every writer has periods of failure."
"What is the Arcade doing with
! your stuff?"
j "Sending it back to me." After a
moment she udded, "So is every other
editor."
"Brutes," he anathematised. "Lot
me 6eo your stories."
He went through them, cutting,
transposing and adding whole paragraphs.
"These are good stories," he '
commended. "Try them on those
editors again. They will buy. You
write well."
She shook her head.
"Norma, let's go back to our partnership.
Will you? I'm lonesome
' and unhappy. I can't write alone."
"Every big magazine in the country
is buying your work. You don't need
me. You never needed me. But

"I'm lonesome and miserable. I do

"You will have to 1 t-hall in Itlic-r

He glanced over them. "Good stuff,"
he announced. "You've touched up

and all others as good."
She gathered them up. "They are
not for publication. 1 wanted to
know something about them, and you
have told me what I wished to know."
Three months later, in response to
a charmingly worded note, Graham
Ford came to Norma's flat for dinner.
The living-room had been refurnished
and was a harmony of dull
woods and soft colors. Hefore the
grate fire was a small table set for
two. Norma wore over her pretty,
light gown a white apron.
It was a well cooked dinner which
the white-aproned hostess served. Graham
Ford ate steadily and appreclately
through the course. When the
meal was finished they carried the
table into the tiny kitchen. Graham
looked about for the cook, but saw no
one.
Norma pushed an easy chair before
the Are. He dropped into it and lighted

apron, Eat on a small chair drawn
close to his.
"Graham," she said in a low voice,
"how do you like It?my little flat and

"It Is a domestic paradise," he
6lghed. "Would you like to have it
all the time? You con if you want

"I refused you a literary wife.

I3ut the rest of the sentence was

chair.
HOW TO PREPARE SPEECHES
John Bright Considered What It Was
That He Wished to Impress
Upon Mis Audience.
"Don't Bpeak unlcps you have
something to say. Don't bo tempted
to go on after you have said It," was
the advice of John Bright, the great
orator. His biographer, Mr. R. B.
O'Brien, says that he took great pains
In the preparation of his speeches. He
thought the subject over night and
day, and sometimes committed the
peroration and other Important passages
to memory, although In the
mala ho trusted to the Inspiration of
the moment for the words In which
to clothe his Ideas. Writing to a correspondent
In 1888, Bright said:
"As to modes of preparation for
speaking, It seems to me that every
man would readily discover what
suits him best.
"To speak without preparation, especially
on great and solemn topics,
Is rashness, and cannot be recommended.
When 1 Intend to speak on
anything that Fcems to me Important,
I consider what it Is that I wish to
impress upon my nudlence.
"I do not write rny facts or my ar
gumentB, but make notes on two oj
three slips of note paper, giving the
lino of argument, and leaving th(
words to come at call while 1 air
speaking. There are occaslonallj
short passages which for accuracy ]
may write down as sometimes, almost
Invariably, the concluding words oi
sentences may be written."
Upon one occasion he gave Mr. 0
W. E. Russell some hints about speeel
making.
"Of course," wrtles Mr. Russell, "
cannot recall verbally what he said
but It was like this:
" 'You can't prepare your subject
too thoroughly, but It 1b easy to over
prepare your words Divide your sub
Jeets Into two or three, no more
main sections. For each section pre
pare an "island." Hy this I mean t
carefully prepared sentence to cllncl
your argument. Make this the con
elusion of the section and then trus
yourself to swim to the next Island
Keep the best island for tho perora

TIME? Manasseh reigned 55 years, from
B C. 134-640. He began In the 213th year
of the kingdom of Judah.
PLACE?Judah and Jerusalem Its capital.
Manasseh was carried captive to
Babylon for a time.
The Kingdom of Israel had been destroyed
a quarter of a century before
Manasseh began to reign.
T e teacher of boys or girls may begin
by asking what a lighthouse Is for,
or a foghorn, or bell buoy In the harbor.
Is It to tell the sailors where to
go? No, It Is to tell them where not
to go. Why are storips of bad men
told In the Bible, such as the one In
this lesson? They are a warning.
They are pictures of a character that
repels us, that urges us not to enter
any path that leads to that end.
During the long reign of Manasseh
Jerusalem was at peace while the
neighboring lands were harried by As- |
Syrian armies, so that Jerusalem had
a laree share of the trade of Palestine.
1 The king and his subjects benefited
In many ways from the Immense In*
I crease of traffic caused by the Inclusion
of Egypt and western Asia under
one empire. The political rank of
Jerusalem secured to her the chief
markets of the Internal commerce of
Judah, as well as the gifts which It
: was customary for foreign traders to
, leave with the lords of the territories
they visited; and thus In spite of the
'; disadvantages of Its site, the city
J must have become a considerable emporium.
, Manasseh was the son and heir ot
? Hereklah, a great, and, on the whole,
| good king. His mother's name was
i Hepslbah, the delight of her husband.
| He was only twelve years old when he
began to reign In form. Tlut In Judah
a king was not supposed to be of age
, until he was eighteen. For six years
Manasseh must have been to n great
i extent under tho Influence of his regents
and counselors. He was the sixteenth
king of Judah. He reigned
fifty and five yearB. The longest reign
In the history of Judah and Israel.
And he did that which was evil in the
j sight of the Lord. Manasseh was
i king of the Lord's people, and his
I business was to carry out find's plan
of a peculiar people who should tench
the imtlonB righteousness, and the
true way of living.
He was a mere boy. unable at first
to assert himself as a ruler. Ho doubtless
was waited on. petted, flattered.
1 | courted, treated as a superior being,
| whose will should never be cheeked.
' nor fancy thwarted; with no regular
(business, no hard tnsks. What Manasseh
did was popular and fashionable;
following the ways of the grentest,
' most cultured, most Influential nation
I In the world, then the master of Judnh.
The people were doing business with
* the Assyrians. Trade demanded conformity.
Society was dominated by
I Assyrian Influences. Moreover, many
I doubtless used the ?nmc argument
i Rabshakeh used to Hezeklah that the
. prosperity undr/ heathen gods, and
their conquering power proved that
these gods were mightier than Jeho1
vah the Ood of the little Province of
' Judah. (And yet the Assyrians were
' really near to destruction since their
* capital Nineveh was swept out of existence
In 606 B. C.)
' Mannasseh degrade! true religion
that wbb meant for the comfort and
elevation of man, by leading his peo
pie away from tlm one trim God, the
' only source of help, Into all manner of
! useless, irrational, degrading enchantments
by which the people sought for
guidance and help. Thus these practices
were treason and disloyalty.
The Ix)rd spake to Manasseh, by
means of the prophets, of whom Na
hum may have been one; by means
of his conscience, by the example
of his father, by means of his
^ conscience, by ihe writ ton word, by
r providence. It is not known Just when
Manasseh wns made to pay the pen1
alty of his sins, but It must have been
1 after many years of Idolatry.
1 Wherefore the I>ord brought upon
1 them the captains of the host of the
0 king of Assyria nnd Manasseh was
0 made captive. The records erf Assur
v banlpal record a review of tho 22
kings of whom Manasseh was one apparently
at Nineveh. Which took

Doctors Said He Would Die
A Friend's Advice Saves Life
I wish to speak of the wonderful cure :
that I have received from your noted
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and blad- I
der cure. J-ast summer I was taken with J
severe pains in my bark and 6ides. I !
could not breathe without difficulty and
was nearly wild with the desire to urinate.
Was compelled to do so every ten minutes
with the passage of pure blood with
the urine. I tried all the different doctors
from far and near, but they said it
was no use to doctor as I would die anyway.
I was at the end of my rope and
was so miserable with pain and the
thought that I must die that words cannot
tell how I felt. One day a frtend told
me of the wonderful help she had received
from Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. She gave
me one of your pamuphlets which I read
and determined to try Swamp-Kcot. After
taking half a bottle I felt better. Have
now taken ten bottles and am well as I
sver was, thanks to Swamp-Root. I wish
to tell all suffering people that have kid
ncy, liver or bladder trouble, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root is the best medicine on
the market.
All persons doubting this statement can
write to me and I will answer them directly,
Yours verv trulv,

PITIFUL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA
"A few days after birth we noticed
an Inflamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have a stitch of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced it chronic eczema He is
a very able physician and ranks with
the best In this locality, nevertheless
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh so rapidly that we be
came alarmed and decided to try Cut!
cura Soap and Ointment.
"Not until I commenced using Cut!
cura Soap and Ointment could we tel
what he looked like, as we dared no
wash hint, and I had been putting on<
application nfter nnother on him. Ot
romovfng the scale from his head th?
hair came off. and left him entirel}

an iiiiu.ii unit no 1,1 . ......
after we began to use tbe Cutlcun
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
mired. I don't believe anyone coub
have eczema worse than our baby.
"Before we used tbe Cutlcura Hem
edies we could hardly look nt him, h(
was such a pitiful sight. He wouh
fuss until I would treat him, the}
semed to relieve him so inttch. Cuti
curn Soap and Ointment stand bj
themselves and the result they quirk
ly and surely bring Is their own rec
ommendation." (Signed) Mrs. T. D
