Later Dan meets T.tfl Ttlltn'n (lelflH n H 1 tilts Int.. that ho loves Julia after all. THEN START THE STOKV -' Ltcr thought of what Dan had said all the way home. Already in her mind's eye she was beginning to re construct her sister's life. Perhaps everything could be patched up between Dan and Julia, nftcr all. Lucy missed Julia. In spite of the fact that she made fun of "Julia's ideas," as Lucy called them, sho secretly admired her aistpr for those things in her nature which Lucy had not and never could possess. Lucy remembered . Julia's sweetness of nature, her unselfishness from the time the two had been chil dren. Lucy remembered all that, and yet if Julia had como back to the gloomy old three-floor-and-bascment house and had taken up her life ngairt there, sleeping with Lucy and being criticised by the family, Lucy would have been just ns selfish as she nlways had been, leaving her share of tho room work to Julia nnd wearing her silk stockings whenever she pleased. It was no less than a bombshell that Lucy dropped that night at dinner. Conversation- was never very sparkling at tho dinner table in the Grant home. The dining room was a gloomy room, even in tho daytime ; tho gas had to be lighted and Mary, tho hard-working maid of nil work, was usually in a bad temper. Ilcr feet were bad nnd she complained continually of tho stairs. On Thursday Mrs. Grant helped out by taking caro of her own floor, which consisted of n sitting room and bed room. Lucy nnd Julia had always dreaded Thursday nights at dinner be cause their mother, tired out and miser able and thoroughly martyred by what she hod done, would always bijing tip uncomfortable subjects for discussion. The greatest beto noir of all was the monthly bills. Instead of waiting until after dinner, when Mr. Grnnt, soothed by his meal 'and smoking a cigar, was in n less nervous frame of mind, Mrs. Grant would always plncc them at the side of his plate so that he would be greeted by them as soon as he entered the room. Julia always had less on tho bills .than any ono else, but Lucy, who never had nny money, would chargo such things as hairpins nnd toothpaste and ribbon. This always infuriated Mr Grant. When ho would storm about such things Lucy would look impudent, Julia would look simply bewildered nnd Mrs. Grant, drawing a long sigh, would always expostulate with him. "Tho girls hnxc to have clothes," she would remark calmly. "I know they do, but I've asked them to pay for things less than n dollar, I make them an allowance and they should keep within that." "I know, Edwin, but it's so hard to do that." "This bluo taffeta, what is that?" Mr. Grant would storm. Mrs. Grant would wrinkle her brows. "Taffeta, blue taffeta, lot me sec; I don't know what that can bo. They must have charged mo with something I didn't buy." "Oh, mother," Lucy would inter rupt. "That was to fix over your old dress, don't you remember?" And then would be, a, silence as Mr. Grant crushed tho bills and stuffed them into his pocket. Mrs. Grant had .no idea of the valuo of money, and although sho never hod anything to show for it, sho spent a great deal in a frivolous manner. This was Thursday night and the first of the month. Lucy knew that she would come in for more than her share of the blame and fault-finding this time because of Julia's absence, Hiercforo her news was doubly im portant. Mary brought in the roast and set it down before Mr. Grant, and his gnzo was" diverted from his paper to the little sheaf of envelopes which he eyed glowcrlngly. t Of late tho bills bad been worse than ever, due to tho high cost of living. It the women had but known it theretwero times when a sick nausea took Edwin Grant by tho throat when he thought of them. Times wero hard and hiB business brought him in no more money to nicer, mem. .Ami yei fin nnn tn tint family seemed to think about that fact. It is bo often that way. Lucy chose this ns tho propitiouB moment and launched her bomb. "Well, I saw Dan today." . ' Mrs. Grant, who had been mourn fully studying a design in tho wall paper and had just been about to re mark that the woik of keeping up a house of this slzo with ono maid was too much, camo down to earth nnd looked actually interested. Even Lucy's father turned to her quickly with an incredulous, "You did J" Lucy nodded. "And what do you think," she went on, "ho isn't going to bo married to that other woman after all." Mrs. Grant looked actually startled. "What do you mean?" "Well," said Lucy complacently, "from what I gathered, he discovered too lato that he had been n fool to give up Julia." Mrs. Grants leaped to the same con clusion thnt Lucy had knowu sho would. "Then it isn't too late, nftcr all, is it?" sho said quickly. Edwin Grnnt stopped in his carving of tho meat and spoke deliberately. "If I know anything about Jullit, it is too late. For my part, I hope she will never take him back." (Tomorrow Edwin Grant, Julia's fattier, takes a stand against Dan Car son.) JEWISH WOMENPLAN TO MAKE GAY AT FETE Council to Halt Serious Work Momentarily in Celebra tion of Anniversary The Council of Jewish Women is planning to become frivolous. After twenty-five jears of organized work and serious attention directed townrd improving conditions of "living in Philadelphia, the council has de cided to celebrate the annUc'rsnry with frivolity. 'Wo are going to celebrate," Miys To lie Decorated Vertically Brocaded Ribbon, Combined in Backless Gown, Provides Harness to Keep Bodice in Place New York, Oct. 7.

' N Tho Bpinal effect is only one of tho many novelties included in the collec tlon of handsome and costly dresses, suits and coats. Hut it was unusual, enough to -bo conspicuous even when combined with the bare back effect which has already nppeared on this side of the Atlantic.

Without this necessary bit of paraphernalia there' would be no possible way of holding the front of the evening dress where it be longs. Occasionally ono saw a nock girdle to which wis added n strip of the beaded cord extending from the middle of the buck of the ueck to the waist, exactly over the spinal column.

Why does tartar form? why, in later years, does pyorrhea start? Millions of people have asked this. Any dentist will tell you that the reason lies in a film. In that slimy film which you feel with your tongue. It clings to the teeth, enters crevices and stays. The ordi nary tooth paste does not dissolve it. The tooth brush leaves much of it intact. ' Night and day, despite your brushing, it may do a ceaseless damage. And most tooth troubles are now traced to film. Film is what discolors not the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food sub stance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. ( Millions of germs breed in it. , They, witli tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Also of, many other troubles, local and in ternal. . Dental science, after years of searching, has found a way to end it. The way fa embodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent. Able authorities have proved its efficiency by many clinical tests. And now we ask you to prove it. Look in Ten Days Look in ten days and let your own teeth show what Pepsodent can do. Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the di gestant of albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent is, to dis solve it, then to day by day combat it. Pepsin must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. Sor this ideal film remover long seemed barred. But science has discovered a harmless acti vating method. So active pepsin can now be applied. Millions of teetii are now being cleaned in this new way. You can see them every whereteeth that glisten. You can see ' that they are kept uniquely clean. Send this coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the slimy film. See how the teeth whiten as the fixed film dis appears. Compare your teetii in ten days with your teeth as they look now. Then read the reason in the, book we send. You who want more beautiful teeth and safer teeth will never go back to old methods.
