COPYRIGHT. 1014. BY JOHN PLBMING WILSON "Ob, you will.'* suld Mrs. Darnell. "Too can combine the pleasure of see- In* New York with your Uttle busi ness. Mr. Everett will quickly settle that part of It and I shall talce great pleasure In showing you about Manhat tan. I presume you are foud of op era?" "I have never been to the opera," Rotb responded. "I should love to go. but when I do go I must go all alone," she went on Impulsively. "I think op era must be like church—one wants to go all by oneself." Mrs. Darnell turned very slowly and for the flret time In many years reveal ed a secret thought: "Do you know that my only pleasant memories, my doar, are of myself?" The bitterness of that confess tan. with all its implication, wholly escaped Ruth's sensitive but Inexperienced mind. Yet there was something In tbe tone that warmed ber heart to this ef fulgent creature. At least, she was not going into tbe great city all alone nor confront Mr. Everett by herself. Mrs. Darnell made her feel that she was competently protected. When they arrived the next morning at the Grand Central station In New York city Mrs. Darnell quietly Intro duced her to a slim, rather handsome young man, who seemed 111 at case un til he bad drawn Ruth's companion aside for a moment for a chat while the porter collected their luggage. "I don't Just like this game," ho Bald. "In the ttrst place. Everett Is a big man in the city, and this Miss Gallon doesn't look to me like a girl you could fool long. Anyway, 1 can't under •tand what you nre trying to do, Jean. You must know what sort of a fellow Harry Wilkerson Is by tills tinu. Why play his hand for him?" "1 don't notice you holding any trumps In your hand," she returned gently, but with a faint gleam In her eyes which made him draw back. "This Is my game, and I expect you to pfay your part. lou come ou now and be George Everett. The girl Is as Ig norant as a pigeon. Remember what I told you." "About that stock?' be said sullenly. "Yes, the stock. Von understand that she came to Now Sork simply to raise money for this mine. Ton are supposed to handle the business for her. If you don't learn all that Is to be learned about The Master Key' mine In the next two days you are more than the fool 1 take you for." She drew him back to where Ruth stood amid the suit cases a-nd hand bags and said. "Miss Gallon. Mr. Ev erett has been telling nie tlifvt he, too has heard from John Dorr about your coming." Ruth scanned him politely. But tht Interest died in her eyes when slir •aw what sort of a man he was. lit might be a friend of John's; he might be the man to rescue "The Mastei Key" from fcankrnptcy, bat he did not interest her. Drake, trjtag to play the part of tbe The Hair Easily Made Beautiful and Attractive I Beautiful hair, thick-, fluffy, lus trous and absolutely free from dan druff is not so much a grift of nature as a matter of care and proper nour ishment. Hair is like a plant—it will not grow healthy and beautiful unless it has attention and proper nutriment. Parisian Sage, a daintily perfumed liquid that is easily applied, tones up and invigorates the hair roots and furnishes the necessary nourishment to not only save and beautify the hair, but also stimulate it to grow long, heavy, soft, fluffy and radiant with life. When used frequently and well rubbed into the scalp, it will simply work wonders. Just one application stops itching head, removes dandruff and cleanses the hair of all dust and excess oil. Since Parisian Sage, which can be obtained from H. C. Kennedy, or at any drug or toilet counter, never dis appoints, it is no longer necessary for any woman to be humilated because of thin, streaky, faded, lifeless or un attractive hair—and pretty hair, more than anything else, helps e%-ery wo man to retain her charm and youthful appearance.—Advertisement.

Ad vefttsQment. FRIDAY EVENING, ' HARRISBURG t&SSBg. TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 11, 1914. 1 busy bioker and. being tboroOghly and temperamentally an actor, felt the chill of this lack of interest and would cer tainly bar* fallen down on his part bad he not been prompted by Mrs. Darnell. He was glud to baßten away to find the elusive taxi. The real George Everett got out of bis limousine on the corner of Vander bllt avenue and hurtled through the revolving doors; brisk, debonair, alert, decided; with that happy style which denies foppery and avoids surveillance. It seemed strange that be should have a photograph In his band at which be looked Intently until be got In the con course. There he stopped and. with the picture still In bis hand, commenced watching tho faces of the people thronging through tbe gates under the vast dome. As be waited be frowned sltgbtly. "Why had John Dorr sent him during business hours on a wild goose chase?" He thought of this ar ticulately and then Bmllcd to himself. "A wild goosel" he muttered. It brought up darkling sunset vlstns, lakes smooth as quicksilver under the evening sky. and slim. gray, beautiful birds homing downward. Tbe frown left his forehead. "After all It will be good to see some body from out of doors," b® said to himself. Half an boor later be discovered that be had Irretrievably missed the ar rival of the Chicago express and with It Rutb Gallon. He went back Into his car and drove to bis office. Once there he called bis bead clerk, an an clent and fragile man. as crisp and bloodless as the money that passes on Wall street, and told him to see at what hotel Miss Rutb Gallon was stop ping. Then be wired John Dorr: in Broadway, New York. John Dorr, "Master Kay" Min* Silent Valley, Cal.: Could not And Miss Gallon at train. Am seeking for her. as It is Important that the business be settled Immediately. Wire any possible address. GEORGE EVERETT. Far out on Broadway, above the eighties, an operator was ticking off another message addressed to Harry Wilkerson. It read: S6 A West Eighty-fourth St.. New York. Harry Wilkerson, "Master Key" Mine, via Valla Vista, Cal.: Everything all light Georga met Ruth. She la now with me and waiting further particulars. Have aeen Everett under trulse of prospective purchaser of stock. The girl Is charming. JEAN DARNELL. Some houses, like some people, should never be Illumined with sunshine, and Mrs. Darnell's residence, overlooking ibe Hudson, was of this type. Its dull, red stone front, marked by windows that seemed blind to all that went by, was not distinctive In that neighbor hood. A thousand doors within a mile would have suggested to the passerby nothing more nor less than tbe great onk portals within which she lived. To Ruth Gallon, of course, the house seemed tremendously formal and state ly. Within she found an atmosphere so absolutely strange and alien to all she bad ever known that she shrank within herself and had nothing to gay until she bad been conducted to ber own room on the third floor and a dis creet maid was busy unpacking her things. Ruth felt that society had al ready laid Its restrictions on ber. She recognised the maid as the "gown and hat" policeman. This silent, but exceedingly obtrusive personage having retired at last, Ruth studied her surroundings. When she had completed her survey she thought to herself that there were two things wanting. One was a silk balred Per slan cat and the other a flaming color ed scarf across tbe bed that completed the altogether of an apartment severe ly luxurious. Then she tried to ana lyze the odor, delicate yet Insistent, which she was ever afterward to asso ciate with Jean Darnell and ber expe rience in New York. At last she traced It to some pallid flowers In the great green and dark red vase, whose unwholesome beauty was that of plants whose roots have never been In good, sound soil. They looked to ber much like lilies, whose pads bad floated on some dark and opalescent pool, viscid with odors of tbe night She was still staring at these and sniffing their scent through widened nostrils when Mrs. Darnell knocked on the door and entered slowly She had changed her street gown for a negligee, which Instantly caught the girl's ap preciative eye.. "You look beautiful," she said quick ly. Jean Darnell turned her tawny eyes on her and smiled faintly. "I nm not usually up until noon," she responded, "and—l am getting old, my denr." She threw out ber Jeweled hands with a sparkling-gesture of half comic resignation. Ruth laughed. "John Dorr says everybody gets old In New York. Don't yon like him?" Mrs. Darnell looked Into the clear eyes of the girl and almost failed to follow her baser Instinct Hut at that loose throat she saw tbe heavy gold of "Tbe Master Key." As If it bad su pernatural powers, the sight of that key locked the door of ber heart "Of course 1 like John," she said easily. "We must get everything fixed np now. George will be here—George Everett of course, 1 mean—tonight, and yon and be can talk the business over." "You know, we simply must have the money," Rutb returned earnestly "The mine Isn't paying now, but John knows where we can find the mother lode again; then we'll all be rich." "Abl" said Jean Darnell "You're •elllng stock, 1 presume?" [To Be Continued Monday.] I THE HAND OF OPPOAr£/Jg/K£*^tT~ I #■■ "*» S%4A&I '/ NOW! I Piano Prices and Terms Absolutely Slaughtered!
