DecompoRltlon may often take plnco
Without being observed by the hoiisowirp.
in, purchaslnfr fish always buy from a
relln'hla dealer. See that the flesh of the
,' llsh Is firm, tho scales lirlnlit. thn sills
red ttnd the fish freo from the odor so
perceptible- Where Is taint.
Brolllnrr and baking nro the best meth
ods of preparing fish. Ity usinp Various
sauces which lend flavor and piquancy,
one's nppellta for fish can be Itcpl keen
fof n Ions while.
Considered from the economical stand
point, fish Is much less expensive than
the best culs of meat, provided the
housewife Understands the proper kind
to purchase. i
Btcak cod Is an economical fish, and can
be prepared very temptingly In many
ways, naked stuffed tod Is delicious and
Inexpensive, while steak cod Is nicest
breaded and fried.
Haddock, though not so line In texture
as cod, Is Just ns cheap, and Is In sea
son the year round.
Smelts aro conspicuous by their ab
sence, tho 1st of April virtually having
closed tbo season for them. Ilrook trout
Is here, however a most delirious fish,
mat can oe liml at a reasonable price.
niUcflsh, always a favorite for bruiting
and baking, are lint strictly In season
lintlf next month, nnd the price, of course,
will be lower then.
By long odds, shail will continue to
hold first place this month and next.
These fish nro best planked, but also
are ver(v good liolleil nnd baked, They
should not be fried, however, as they
already are rich In fat. and frying ren
ders thorn hard to digest.
Tbo bucks nrc consldeied the best
flavored, though tho separate roe Is very
rnueh of a delicacy.
Oysters, In the market tho year round,
are considered unsafe by many after May
1 Until September they are poor nnd
flabby, although If perfectly fresh nro
renlly harmless
LOHST$KS
Lobsters are rather expensive Kplcuroa
prefer "I.en Lobsters" on account of the
coral or eggs.
If purchased alive they should bo oT a
dark green color. If already boiled the
shell should be firm and of n bright rod
color. When tnken In the hand If heavy
according to size thev are fresh, and If,
when the tall Is straightened It springs
back Into place, the lobiter was alive, as
It should have been, when put into the
pot for boiling.
CLAMS
Rood clams nrc also to be had now.
When made Into bouillon, slmwder, scal
loped, clam bako or when devilled they
nro delicious and nourishing.
Ko crabs are In at present, except the
oyster crabs. Devilled in oyster shells or

MUCH-MARRIED WIFE
SEEKS HER FREEDOM
Sues for Separation From
Stock Broker, Who "Patheti
cally" Kissed Show Girl.
NEW YORK. April ".-Married four
times, Mrs. Mary It. MuDormott Watson
.MnoNamara, wife of Henry 1-'. Mnc
Nnmurn, a stock broker, formerly ot
Lewistown, I'a., has a suit on trial here
In tho Supreme Court for separation nnd
$50 a week alimony. MncNamnrn comes
from a prominent Lewistown family, and
Is accused of being too friendly with
Betty Marshall, a show girl. Ills wife
also alleges nonsuppoit, cruelty and
abandonment.
After Mrs. MncNamarn bad related
how she had observed her husband and
Miss' Marshall as tho latter was about
to enter the stage door for a nmtlneo per
formance last spring, S. Stnnwood Men
Ken, tho husband's counsel, objected to
that line of testimony as having nothing
to do with the charges of cruelty.
"You say kissing Is not cruelty," Inter
rupted Justice Wbltnker. "I should say
It Is. To my mind there could bo no
greater cruelty on the part of n, husband
than for him to kiss another woman.
Tioceed Mrs. MacNamara."
"He kissed Miss Marshall pathetically,
and said he was so.-ry that be wouldn't
b,i able to see her for two hours," con
tinued tbo plaintiff.
"What do you mean by pathetically?"
asked Mr. Menken.
"Well, he acted as If he was losing hh
last friend, although she was only, going
In to play a two-hour matinee."
Mrs. MacNamara is un attractive bru
nette, with a clear pronto nnd spark
ling black eyes. She admitted she was
'around" 80 years old. Her husband U
a sparsely built under-sized man nbout
10 years her Benlor. She testified they
were married on two occasions before as
many notaries public. Not being satis
fied with the dual marriages, the couple
returned to Lewistown, where they were
married on Septqmber 4, 1912, by the Rev.
M. S. C'resaman, of that place.
MacNamara was formerly connected
with the Stock Kxcluintro firm of Edward
R. Smith & Co. and later with E. F.
Rutton & Co., stock brokers, both of this
city.
Before Mrs- MacNamara began her
trio of marriages with the broker she
had been wedded tp "Richard Watpon,
from whom ehe obtained a dlvorco In
Reno, Nev.,' on the trround that Watson
had a wife living- at the time of hU mar
riage to Mrs. Watson-MacNamara.
Mrs. MacNamara accused her husband
of having tried to pptson her by placing
a drug In her coffee and threatening to
J throw her out of their apartment In the
ItuuiioaaDie utennitna apanramu, mver
slde Drive and tWd strwt. She also 4e
claiwl lie told bar he would prs tier
face with a flat icon It she did. not keep
his trousKi-s pressed.

chapter XXVnr-(Oontlmted).
Craig was ahead. For one startled sec
ond he slated nt tho other .Hclderman,
the one he had seen pacing back nnd
furih with characteristic gestures In tho
room, as he approached tho house with
the real lleldeiman beside hint,
There on tho smooth white wall of tho
room, opposite the broad window, this
other lleldermnli moved, cVory detnll so
Him the man who stood chafing under
Ciowdrr's grasp, lllat Crnlg's eyes turned
confusedly from tho one to tho other,
as If to nssuro ills puzzled vision thnt
he actually saw two men,
Ity nil that's holy!" bo burst out nt
Inst. "It's a moving picture!" ,
Ills words seemed to release lleldermnli
from his thl-nll of tortured silence.
"Dolt! Idiot! l''ool!" ho screamed.
Out of the semi-gloom a beautiful face,
contorted lo it mask of hate, mocked at
hint from the balcony. It was Ircno
Arnny, taking a cruel levengo for Hct
dermiui's change of heart.
"An nrcompllce of yours, 1 bellow, ltd
deriimnl" observed Crowder dryly.
" cs, she has turned tho trick on him
for some of Ids duplicity, with a veil
geanct'l" ndded Crnlg.
It was true. Irene looked down on the
man she had loved, nnd whoso schemes
slln had shared, with no shadow ot un
certainty In her fnce. The look of hnte
bore with It n gleam of satisfaction.
"Ho you were tbiough with me quite!"
she scoffed. "I wns merely n useful tool,
like Sophie! Well. 1 wnsn't through with
you nnd I'm not through with you yet!
I told you once your smuggled diamonds
worn not safe. I show sou now that you
wero never safe never safe from me."
And tho cruel show of him upon tbo
wall never ceased, or wns Interrupted for
nn Instant. Steadily she kept the betray
ing picture at Its llondlsh task. Now
the simulated Hclderman walked ap
parently to the window but actually
upon tho bare wall and looked out. Now
It lighted a cigar. Now It sat down and
crossed Its legs. Now It paced up and
down tho wall, with many a shrug nnd
grlmnco that Its counterpart had nssldu
ously cultivated, for such a purpose nn
this!
Holderninn. the real, swore until he
wns out of breath.
"There's where your picture man falls
short," commented Crowder, qulzzlcnlly.
"You should have had him trained to
swenr, too! Edison could have fixed you
up!"
Enraged nnd humlllnted beyond endur
ance, lleldermnli Hung his mnnncled
hands wildly around, seeking to do this
Jeering detective bodily harm. Crowder
quickly eluded him, nnd took advantage
of bis move to land htm In ono of tiie
spindle-legged chairs.
He liml scarcely touched it, hm it be
gan Its part in tho embarrassing revela
tions. It began to move, with n sliding
noise, toward a comer of tho room. Its
fellows moved also: nnd the table In tho
centre of the room, as If not wishing to
bo left behind, accompanied thorn on the
queer Journey. Actuated by concealed
panels and levers In the door, they stead
ily proceeded until they had all taken
Inconspicuous places along the wall
leaving the stago cleared for the action
of the moving picture.
"That's what happened when the lights
were off. That's what miido tho noiso!"
exclaimed Craig.
"You're a wonder, lleldcrman!" said
Crowder, with genuine admiration. "But
you've over-reached yourself. You wanted
tho Riilluntyne money Heaven only
knows when or how you got on tho Bal
lantyne trail and the Uralno money, and
tho, smuggling money, nnd any money
you could Iny your bonds on, to keep you
going: to pull you out of tho big hole
your Inst enterprise got you Into."
"What enterprise?" ashed Rutherford,
when Heldennnn did not deign to reply.
"A colossal moving picture trust. He'd
have made It go, too. If we hadn't stopped
his llttlo game. But It would have been
n tight squeeze, for even a real tnultl
mllllonnlie. His company had bought up
hundreds of shows, and had been running
them at a tremendous loss, so far; but
ho'd have won out In the end, if "
Crowder did not think It necessary to
completo his sentence. Irene Arnny
laughed a horrible, mirthless sound,
which caused all three ot the men to
start.
"Chromatic dims nature-color process
developed to tho highest degree thnt
nickering fire which took up tho dicker
tho camera; hidden, nutomatlc machinery
to move the ie.il furniture out of tho way
of its counterfeit presentment the blank

keep us all nt the dramatic tno tneniricoi
distance, so wo couldn't get loo close to
toll it Is tho mark of true genius, Jtel
dermau, but genius turned to crooked
ends!" said Craig, ns at last tho picture
farted, leaving the oxpnttso of whlto wall
bare nnd Innocent of shadow.
Again tho woman Inltghed. and tho
sound seemed to louse tho betrayed Innii
to Riiporhuninti effort. As bo had sat
there In the shadows his powerful arms
had worked silently and Irresistibly
ngnln.'t their bonds. Now ho flung them
wide, and the handcuffs fell to tho floor
Willi n 'ehiiig. Jleforo the secret service
man ould recover his linlance from me
sudden shove he received Holderninn was
nt tho door,
Craig sprang nt him as though he were
on the lootbnll Held nnd tackled low. An
Instant Hclderman writhed to break him
self loose, then
"The dnfis! Looso the dogs!" lie yelled.
Rutin rfoid felt his llesh grow cold. Ho
know that nothing human could withstand
tho cnnihlned attack ot those two half
starved beasts, uiged on by their master.
There was a rattling of chains and tho
next moment tt gaunt, lithe foim hurtled
ovef the bends of the two struggling men
on tho lloor. A second followed nnd land
ed with heavy Impact In tho middle of the
great white loom. Tho two beasts paused
a moment, with drooping bends, growled
Incmlrlngly us though seeking a victim;
then they snw Crnlg clinging to their
master, and with n ronr they charged
upon him.
"Shoot! Shoot! They Will kill him!"
cried Irene Aiatiy, her voice raised to a
shrill slit He of horror.
.Inst ns Craig felt tho hot breath ot tho
nearest of tho brutes ho gnVo n sudden
upward heave of his alms, still tackling
Hrlilerman below the waist, nnd threw
his opponent between himself nnd their
attack. The bensls circled, snarling, Beck
ing for .u opening.
"Kill them!" besought the girl In the
balcony.
Crondcr hail stood with revolver raised,
hill still dared not shoot for fenr of hit
ting Rutherford, tin lifted tho weapon
and fired Into the wall.
Tho dogs whirled U the sound and
started ton. -ml tho now assailant. Craig
released his hold nnd clutched Hclderman
mound the tluoat.
"Call off your dogs or I'll choke you!"
he shouted.
ills i-olco distracted ono ot tho brutes.
It turned on him agnln nnd tore his coat
half ofT him nt the first vicious snap
of Ids Jaws. Again ho barely saved him
self by swinging the banker between him
self and liio dog".
Crowder also had sprung behind the
swaying figures for protection from, thn
other brute. Xow ho wns closo to llel
dermnli, mid ho pointed tho revolver, not
at the dog, but nt the man.
"Speak to them!" lie commanded
tersely. "Speak! or, by Heaven, 1 shoot
to kill!"
Helderman knew tho lone and obeyed.
"Down, Satan! Down, Lucifer!" he
cried.
A strange thing happened. Tho fnmll
lnr volco stopped them; something In It
seemed to hold them still for a second
then they turned simultaneously nnd
with howls of exultant rage leaped
straight at the man they had onco cringed
before. For now they detected a tone
of fear In his words of command. llelder
mnli wns flo longer their master, and
they meant to make him pay dearly for
all tho hardships they hall endured at
bis hands. '
Craig saw tnem coming nnd darted tn
one side. lleldermnli gave a boarso cry
of despair. Tho dogs wcro upon him.
Crowder lifted his weapon again. He
could do no worse than tho beasts would
do. If ho did not Interfere. Ho fired,
and Lucifer rolled over, plerc-d through
tho heart. The pistol barked again.
Satan turned with a scream ot rago and
pain, and dashed nt his throat. A shot
caught the dog between the eyes.
Helderman, shaking with u chill of
horror, snnk back against tin, wnll. Thero
was not the slightest rcsemhlaiico to the
nriogant, triumphant financier. Crnlg
saw bis weakness and Instantly took nd
rantago of It.
"I'll trouble you for those papers ot
Miss Hullantyne's," he said, extending his
hand authoritatively.
Without a word Hclderman drew the
envelope from his pockft and handed it
over. Craig glanced hurriedly Insldo it
to satisfy himself. He did not trust
Helderman, oven now. but his precaution
was unnecessary. Helderman wns beaten.
Ho could fight no mere.
"Como!" snld Crowder, touching tho
man on tho arm, and ngaln presenting
tho handcuffs, "tho curtain has been rung
down on the movlng-plcturo trust. Thero
will bo no more free shows up on tho
Dilvo to keep somo of us awake ot

CHAPTER XXIX.
AND LAST.
It was somewhnt late in tho evening
for a call; but Crulg Rutherford went
up tho steps of tho West 10th street house
with tho usstiranco of n victor. A tiny
lig'ut glenmed In the window to tell him
that ho was awaited.
"I want to see Miss Rallantyne," ho
said in n somewhat dictatorial way to
..iios vjniiHiciiu, who opened tho door for
him. Tho colored girl had long slnco
retired. ,
Without waiting to hear whether be
might or not, he walked Into tho stiff,
old parlor. It iad probably never before
held a young man who paced such
mighty strides across its ancient carpet.
"Mercy gracious!" a voice came from
the obscurity of the hall; "nro you In
training?"
"Not yet!" rotorted Craig. "Come here,
und let mo begin !"
"It's lato fqr. callers, nnd I'm not
dressed for company, I shouldn't have
como down If Miss Olmstead hadn't made
me, nnu '
"Aro you coming In here or shall I
have to coma out there?"
"ph. no."
It was a very meek little capitulation,
one of the kind by lViilch a girl gains
time. Rlllie sidled cautiously around tho
door-frame, nnd stood Just inside the
threshold. Something long and faintly
blue hung softly all about her. The
sleeves were roomy and short, with lace
edgings framing her dimpled elbows and
trailing down like misplaced wings.
"Look! IJt'aVe themt The last will
and confesalhHof one Geoffrey Ballan
tyne!" exclalnic1 Cralsr with strategic
skill, ,
She camo dancing toward Mnxl her face
lighted up so that it was a Joy to behold.
"OIH" she cried In very large capital
letters, "Then father U free!"
He nodded, so delighted In belnjf able
to brine her this Joy that he was win
Inff to keep his own deslrea In the back-,
ground. The girl seized the papers from
his extended "hands and pressed them to
her lips. Her eyes wero misty with
fil'lHNT. ItKSOrtTB

sudden tears. She gave nn inaudible
word of excuse and hurried from tho
roorn, nnd Craig made no effort lo Stop
'icr' . ,.
Five minutes she. wns Bone, nnd then
ten. Craig got Up slowly and started
toward tbo door. His mission wns ac
complished, evidently o far an she Wns
concerned. She had scoured tho papers
for which s'no had endured so much, nnd
In tho sudden rush of Joy ho wns for
gotten, lie felt no bitterness nt thti
thought; Instead, ho pictured her tis In
dulging In a good cry. Ho would go
nway now, and perhaps tomorrow buo
would listen to him.
Ills nlr ot dictatorial asstiranco was
gone ns ho walked slowly through tho
hall and opened tho door. Ho felt de
pressed, ns though ho had lingered loo
long after tho Inst curtain had been rung
down. Tho nrdor nt tho chase, which
had keyed hint up lo tho highest pitch
until lteldormnn bnil flunlly surrendered
wns over. It would seem petty of him
to linger lieic, as If In hope of reward.
Ho would not dciqnnd tho girl's love from
a sense of gtnlltudc!
He was half wny out of the door when
n llttlo cry made him pause nnd turn
back ngaln. Rlllie wno Hying down tho
slabs, nil excitement, all apology.
"You weren't going!" sho said re
proachfully. "Why, no," he snld, with nn effort to
bo Jocose; "I thought I would step out
side and tty a cigar for my nerves."
"I don't believe you!" she contradicted,
"and T should never hnvo forgiven my
self, after nil you have ilono for us! Hut
T Just couldn't help It crying like a baby.
1 tried twlco to telephono father nbout
It, and I couldn't keep my voice strnlgbt."
'Toil poor child!" Crnlg snld sympa
thetically. "You should hnvo had tho
rest of I his strenuous evening to your
self. I wouldn't have come bnck nt nil
tonight, only I knew you wcro nnxlous
to hnvo tho papers"
Ho half turned ngaln, ns If preparing
to take his lenvo, when she laid a gen
tle detaining hand on his nrm.
"How can I ever thank you enough for
nil you have. done?" sho nsked timidly.
"Why, don't try to, little gill!" he said,
his eyes shining ns he looked down Into
her pwcel, upturned fnce. "Resides, 1
don't want just thanks!"
His nrm crept around her shoulders; but
It was tho old, elusive Rllllo who turned
quickly toward thu parlor, still fencing
for time.
"Come," she said conxlngly, "tell mo
nil about what happened tonight. 1
phnn't bo nblo to sleep a wink unless you
do."
Mentally sho wan contrasting tbeso two
wooers of thn snmo evening. Thi first
had demanded her baud, ns tho price of
her father's papers; while the second had
been on Iho point ot slipping away quiet
ly, nnthnnked.
"Oh." sho panted. "Oh! If anything
had happened to you " sho pniihcd In
some confusion, and added lamely: "So
that dreadful Mr. Hclderman wns tho
smuggler, afler all, was ho? What oc
eanic of that diamond nccklnco you help
ed mm smuggle in?"
"I don't Intend to have all my work
nn account of tho nccklnco go for noth
ing!" he laughed. "I'm going to buy i
from Rude Sam for a bridal present; nnd
I'm going to get Monty Hrookllcld to net
ns best linn. Your father or his phono
grnph! will bo down hero to say, 'RIess
you. my children!' while you "
"Oh!" she said, rosily, "so I am in this
they-all-llvcd-linppy-evcr-nfter story, too,
am I?"
"Yes. The first thing you aro to do Is
to tear up every slnglo living garment
in your wardrobe!"
"Why, tho very Idea!" she protested
fnlntly.
"Yes," he went on. unheeding tho natu
ral remonstrance to Ills startling plan:
"out thev must all go! They're too much
like another lady's costumes; nnd I don't
want to run the risk of confusing persons
after wo nro married!"
"Then you nro going to mnrry Miss
Aarany?"
"No, silly, I'm going to marry you and'
nt mighty short notice, too, I ctin promise
you!"
"Why!" she gasped, in stmulated aston
ishment. "What nn nmnzlng proposal!"
"No," ho corrected, calmly possessing
himself of both her hands: "It Isn't a pro
posalit's u command. You know I'm
commandcr-ln-chlcf, by your father's ap
pointment. So present arms!"
There was a happy little silence for n
few moments, in which nt least two per
sons in tho big city did not noto the
lapse of time. Then a timid volco said;
"There's Just ono of inv old tblncs thnt
I would like to keep. Crnlg. and wear on
my on our wedding day.'
The last words wern a whisper, whllo
sho burled her rosy cheeks on his shoul
der. "What Is thnt. dearest?"
"My old blue buckle the one you have
been keoplng for me."
"I bellovo you think more of thnt hluo
buckle than you do ot tho diamond neck
lace!" ho teased.
"I do," sho confessed; "because it
brought me you!"
"Pshaw!" ho scoffed, stroking tho ador
able head, nevertheless. "I've had a hard
time proving my claims, bucklo or no
hucklo! You girls nil have to bo taught
how to love whllo wo men would go
through fire and water! Here I'vo been
madly In love with you over since I first
saw you coming on board tho C.othlc, and
even when I thought you wero another
man's wife Cod forglvo me! Rut I
couldn't help loving you, any moro than
breathing. Tell me, Rlllie." ho added,
manlike, wanting tq know, "when was It
that you first begun to llko me a llttlo?"
"Llko you! Llko you! Llko you, Crnlg!
Why, you obstinate, perverse, misunder
standing man! I love you I always hnvo
loved you from away back in some other
Incarnation! Don't you realize It yet?
There! Do you now?"
With nil her loving heart trying to find
expression through voice and eyes, sho
lifted herself on tiptoe and met his caress
with wllllnE1 Ups.
