T7IRGINIA DAY felt the necessity v for helping with the earnings of

the family Income. "But, my dear." said her mother

as they discussed the subject for the nth time, "you help so much at | home. Practically all of the housekeeping falls on your shoulders."

Virginia tossed credit aside. "It la nothing. I can continue to help you and still earn a penny to add to the family exchequer."

"If it would make you happier—" "It Isn't that, dear mother. I am

happy. Bu | everyone is more nearly Satisfied with himself if he is earning his own salt. Isn't it so?'

"It seems to be in this generation," admitted the mother.

"It is so. And when I see women with two or three little children and all their housework to do, pursuing some sort of lucrative work, I am ashamed of njy laziness." Virginia had evidently been giving th<> mat­ter of her own efficiency some seri­ous thought and her mother could not help admiring her lovely daugh­ter.

"Have yon decided on anything in particular? What can you do?j

"Sell tulips!" announced Virginia simply.

"But—1

She cut her mother's protest short. "I know I don't own a single bulb nor a square inch of ground, but I have a scheme."

"Seems to me you'll need one, daughter," said the mother.

"You remember the other day when I went with Julia to a tea place out on Long island? Well, that is where my scheme was born. And yesterday I went out on the train to see if it were a real inspiration that I had had —and it wa». We had passed, in driv­ing, the loveliest field of tulips I had ever beheld. Then and there some­thing told me that opportunity was whispering in my ear. I hai read somewhere or other that to be. ef­ficient in l(fe we must learn to cap­ture these fringed moments an4 make use of them. I recognized thijs as a golden chance, and I believe it] was."

The mother looked at her daughter with widening eyes. Was this ier lit­tle girl speaking with so much under­standing of life?

"It seems that the man whoj owns the tulip (fceld hvil started id hap­hazard fashion a bulb farm, bijit had not had the proper business methods for getting his goods into the market.

QUIT GETTING UP NIGHTS.

A healthy Bladder acts during the Day

C. N. Schuman, Republic, Ohio, says, "Before taking Lithiated Buchu (Kel­ler Formula) had to get up six or sev­en times each night. Now I do not get up at all. You may use my name if it would beenfit anyone with bladder trouble." Be careful not to take drugs that check the action of the bladder. You may have to continue its use. Li­thiated Buchu (Keller Formula) in­creases the action during the day. It cleanses the bladder as epsom salts do the bowels driving out foreign matter, neutralizing excess acids, thereby re­lieving the irritation which causes get­ting up nights. These tablets cost 2c each at all drug gstores or Keller La­boratory, Mechanicsburg, Ohio. Locally at C. C. Webster & Son. adv.

We decided to put the tulips all in dlv»-*'ons of cojor for next spring, hundreds of each va­riety with the beginning that ihe al­ready has planted so irregularjy. My job all winter will be to get orders from hotels and tea rooms in ttye city for certain color schemes for pertain days. For Instance, I will sell a big hotel scarlet tulips for Monday and Tuesday, yellow for the following two days, and so forth, and eliminate the profit of the middleman or florist. ' I, myself, will deliver them in our old station wagon, and when I get too busy we wfll hire a truck. Do you see? It will be practically no efctpense to me rndlwe are to divide profits. He is willing—even enthusiastic."

Virginia went on planning and car­rying out her scheme and went so far as to suggest to one teaj room owner on Fifth avenue that a rain­bow afternoon tea feature would be attractive. She planned for tjhem a series of tables decorated entirely In single colors from the tea cloth and china service to the tulips in the cen­ter—each jrae different. Heir idea was to hav* a real rainbow effect as you entered the long room, carried out in cololed tables.

"And has It been a kind fate?" he asked.

"It has, Frank. You know It has. We shall build the new bungalow at the crest of the hill and its windows shall look out upon the riotous field of color in spring. Other seasons will take care of tbeInse^*es.,,
