The fol lowing it the tecond installment of the story as the iotd it: By IDA RIEI1L It tbpk mo a whole week to realize that soniellow X had done the most nwfiil thing a girl enn do. I didn't know why oi4 what Win the mutter with me, but a voice Inside of me kpt naylnp, "Kill yourself, Idn, you had better kill your self rind, end It nil." I didn't see Ed much during that week. Mnyhe It was. bicaune I wiui too miser able in io but, Maybo bo didn't como nrourid as much aa ustinl. I don't know. Only, f felt that If I couldn't talk to somo one a'oon I'd Ro'craiy. I looked nt dnd Iota of times nnd was almost ready to (peak.. to him about It all, hut It Bcemcd to mo that ho'd had enough trouble of his own without me bothering him with mlno. And something (old me, too, that a. glrl'B mother was about the only person sho could- go to In a time like this. And then ono day Aunt Klla enmo round, from her houso on Auburn street. "What's the matter, Ida?" sho said to me sharply when I enmo In tho room. "You, look sick." I told her I didn't know, nnd It was God's truth tflat. I spoko then. I didn't know what the matter wns, but I told her everything Just as lthappcnedi I'll never forget the look of her-face when I told her. ' "My God, child," sho moaned, rocking back ;sind forth and wringing her hands, "you don't know what you've done." And then aha cried as If her heart would break. COULDN'T THINK WHAT TO DO. I wouldn't havo cared If sho had beaten me then, I wish sho had, because may be then I could havo forgotten tho nwful suffering In my head. I couldn't think what to do for tho burning pain In my head. VWo muBtn't toll your father," Aunt Ella said, when sho had stopped crying, "It might kill him, Wo'vo got to Beo Ed right away." And then my aunt and I went down to the dairy to soo Ed. I guess when ho came out ho must havo known that some thing waa tho mattor when ho saw Aunt Ella, for ho looked kind of worried. My aunt was nngry with him, but sho Noldn't let him know It at first. "Ed," she said, "you've got to marry Id, right away and fclvo her a name." For the -first time for a week I felt happy again. I thought If I win mnrruri to Ed everything wpuld come ,all. jHfht, UftiUlII. t . - - llut somehow Ed was changed, "wio didn't seem to love me as much as ho .had said he did. He didn't even look at me or talk to mo, but he told Aunt Ella he couldn't get married because he wasn't old enough. I couldn't understand his saying thin, because I am sure I heard his father say once that he was 21. Aunt Ella said It didn't mako any dlf. ference-that If ho was old enough to bo the father of my baby he was old enough to marry me, and If ho wasn't man enough to do It himself his father would Baye to be told and something would havo to be done to mako him. HEIt LOVEIt ASKED DELAY. .. ,J wouldn't want anybody to know this, he told her; "you give Ida and me ?uW . or B0 t0 ,n,k matters over and then I guess we'll come to some sort of understanding." Aunt Ella said the only kind of under standing we could dome to would bo mar riage, and that It would have to bo tjulck He said, "Meet m next Tuesday at th street and dlrard avenue and we'll fix things up." Tho next Tuesday afternoon Aunt Ella nnd I Met Bid at (th street and fJIrard avenue. Hd was cross and that made me cry. "I'll marry her In three weeks," he said, "If we keep It secret for two years." My aunt didn't want this, but she said she'd agree for the name. Then Ed said that he and I would tako a little walk and arrange things, and so my aunt left us. NEW ELECTRIC BLOCK SIGNALS FOR P. R.

After Aunt Ella had gone, lis began to put on a poor mouth. He said he didn't know how In the name of OcAl he wns going to keep anyone. And then he put his arm around me and said he knew a doctor who would fix things tip and get us both out of this scraps JSd's manner tnada me afraid. It didn't teem possible that a girl could be so scared of a man she loved. I wouldn't go with him nnd that seemed to make him mad. He left me and I went right back to Aunt Ella and told her I was so frightened. Aunt Ella decided to tell dad that night Sho said the affair -was getting too big for women to handle. I afterward found out that when AUnt Ella told my father she made him promlso that he wouldn't any anything to upset me. And so, though I knew that dad know, nnd he knew that 1 know, he didn't say a word, but lie couldn't keep his sorrow out of his eyes. Just tho same. The next morning my father went down to Hauptfuhror's to see Ed. He wasn't there, but he left word for him to como up to our place as soon as he came In. At 1 o'clock Ed came. My father didn't waste words, "What aro you going to do about this?" he Bald. Ed didn't look nt dad, but Bald some thing about not having money enough to keep me, nnd not being of nge. My father said that didn't matter; he should havo tnougnt or those things before; now he'd have to marry me right nwny. Ed snld, "Do you want a minister or n magistrate?" Dad was excited. He said he didn't care n. yip at this stage of the game. Ed had Just como up from the dairy. He said his clothes weren't lit to go In town and Kot a license, and ho hnd to go homo and get washed up. Dad didn't want to let him go. "Have a heart," Ed begged. "Give mo a day or two to fix my books up." I wished then that I was dead. Dad said: "But you didn't havo a heart when you ruined my llttlo girl, nnd no matter what you do shell have to pay the most." Ed pleaded to bo allowed to go homo for 15 minutes to seo his father. Dart always was kind-hearted. Ho let him go. Ed never came back. AVOIDED SIEETINO IDA. Tho next dny dad wont down to Hntipt- fuhrer's ngaln. Ed's father naked him whnt the matter was. Dad told him and Mr. Hrtuptfuhrcr sympathized with him. He said, "They ought reully to marry, but think of tho cat-and-dog life they'd live If they did." I couldn't understand why, when Ed hnd Bald he loved mo nnd I loved him. Ed waa upstairs nnd his father couldn't get him to como down, so after waiting n rou nil n llttlo while dnd camo home dis couraged. A wholo week passed nnd Ed didn't come near mc. On the following Tues dny I wns almost desperate, and so I called him up nnd tried to coax him into being good to me. I asked him to como down to the houso. Ho said ho wouldn't do It, but that he would meet mc outside that night If I camo alone. I met him that night. He came in his father's au tomobile and had another fellow with mm. I almost died of shame when Ed began tnlklng nbout our trouble beforo this other man. But Ed saKl It didn't matter, that he knew all about It Ho begged mo to get in tho automobile, be cause he said It wouldn't do for us to be seen talking there. I had never been ner vous before, but somehow I was afraid "to go. Ed got so cross, thoueh. that T had to get In. After we'd been gono for nbout 10 minutes the other fellow took a bottle of white stuff out of his pocket. "Drink this tonight, little girl," ho said, "nnd tomorrow I'll meet you nnd give you something else that'll help you nnd Ed out by ridding you of tho disgrace." t took the bottle of white stuff from him. It looked like water, but I was nfrald to tako It. The next day tho other man met me ngnln and gave mo a bottlo of big bjnek pills. He acted so secret about It that my heart almost stood still. I 'was afrnld to do what they wanted mo to nnd so I took both of the bottles to Aunt Ella. She screamed when she saw them, nnd tho next thing I knew they had Ed arrested. I never wanted him to bo arrested, Ood knows, for I think of him still.

"When 111 wo call a specialist and wo accept Ills world without a dauht.

It nts a man for his eight hours of work n day nnd 11 tn him welt. But what of his eight hours of recreation?

You can do it If you llvo along the Main Lino of tho Pennsylvania Rallrond. for the now signal system Instnlled there coincident with tho ODenlng of tho elec tric suburban service, maintains lights so powerful that headlines aro visible 1000 feet from the signal bridge tung stens. Tho new signal system is only ono of the Innovations In railroading that the Pennsylvania has Installed for the elec trification of tho Main Mnc to Pnoli. Thcro Is a "Dead Man's Control," which will stop n train should tho motorman fall 111, a Bystem of electrically actuatod brakes, nnd several safeguards to pre vent accidents when the high voltago cur rent Is turned Into the wires July 1 and tho nrst scheduled train leaves Broad Street Station. Tho signal system Is working now. From tho rear tho new "boards" look like, the Iniquitous "banjo" signals which figured In tho New Haven wrecks, but the principle Is very different. It Is tho most efficient over Installed, Pennsylva nia engineers say. Instead of depending on the Intrlento movements necessary to raise nnd lower semaphore arms and at night on tho color sense tn the engineers' eyes, the new system works with blazing nhita electric lights, both day and by night. Tho lights, after tho fashion of the moving signs on Broadway, form In rows of white globes tho semaphore positions. So bright Is the light that the positions enn be clearly seen In tho brightest sun light 400 feet away. Tho "Dead Mail's Control," which will guard the passongcrs on all electric trains, makes It impossible to lotek tho controller handlo tn any position. Tho motorman must hold It In tho proper speed notch ngalnst tho pressure of a light but suf ficiently strong spring. Should tho motor- man bo suddenly stricken nnd relax his hold the controller handlo Will fly back to the "neutral" point nnd tho current will be shut ort and the brakes applied.
