weugh courage to do my duty to Henry
Then??ordfal" in 'question began two
w4ks ago. when Alice first saw Henry
With another woman. They had been
toa restaurant dining, and Alice had
h0Dned along and had seen them
through window. The Uow was from
.distance, but It had been sufficient
fo convince Alice that her rlvul wm
voung nd good-looking.
She waited for Henry to speak of
the matter, but he did not mention it.
' Tntsmuch as he had been engaged to
Alice for a year. It would have been
th proper thing for him to explnlu
hlmiclf, she thought.
Alice was willing to let It drop, only
the very next day Jennie Qualtea, who
worked with her In the shoe manufac-
.turer'a office, came to her with a story
of having seen Henry with "a very
stylishly dressed "young woman at a
""Thin slie decided she must act. She

Jnd his own sense of duty ws ;
venting blra from stepping out of Alice a
Mi That was tfic way Alice figured It.
"Three times after Alice had. made
that decision Henry called on lie, nml
tares times she had tried to act or she
hTd planned. But she cared so much
for Mm. and he treated her so much
,i he always had that she could not
Vlng b"elf to the climax of their
romance that she had detet mined upon.
Finally, in desperation, Alice sought
the advice of hcr'nunt, who was worldly
wise and versed in matters of the heart,
having had three husbands and survived
thim all. She found her aunt perform
tor her toilet and making profuse Use
of some crimson, pastellke substance
which she took -from a large jar.
"Making rayBclf young ngain. ex
plained the aunt, rubbing the pllj -sub-itance
Into her face. "This is Sylvia
Hall's Carmine Crenm. which restores
youth, banishing old age and wrinkles.
You won't know me when I get made
n I think I'll try my hand nt matri
mony again when I hnve camouflaged
the traces of Father Time's scythe."
She refuced to become serious when
Alice related her tale of woe.
"There's .only one of two things to
do," advised the aunt. "Hand him li s
ring and forget about him what one
man more or less. There s plenty of
them.) Or get busy and bent out this
Uher woman that has stolen his affec
tions. This may sound terribly sinner,
but that's the result of the youth re
storer getting in its work."
"But I love him too much to let
tlm go. even though it's mv duty,
protested Alice.
"Better think It over. then, said
the aunt. "You hnve mv advice, and
It's the best 1 can give. Better let him
take the initiative, if you can't do it
yourself."
And Alice took her leave, while her
aunt muttered something about "heart,
affections rot !" and resumed lathering
her face.
While Alice was passing the window,
however, the mint appeared to hnve
tn struc'k with nn idea, for she
called :
"Alice. I just happened to think of
jomething. Perliups this other woman

"No. it can't be," Alice rejoined.
"Henry has no sisters or cousins. I
know that to be a fact ; and his mother
is dead."
At the dinner hour the next da.i Alice
tould not keep away from the rcstniiiant
where her troubles of the heart had
begun.
Ktidentlv it was. for through the
window Alice saw Henry tad the fash
iosably garbed woman she had almost
learned to hate. Apparently thev haJ
dined earlier thnn usual, for Henry was
paying the cashier and the lady wn
waiting for him. fe
"She's a silly looking yoi? g thing,

But she was seen. Henr spied her

Immediately he waived to her, and
linking his arm through that of the

"(!ood evening, Alice," he nnid, duff

"I'd like von t meet a err cele

A Store of
Lower Prices
' Merchants have come
from all qver the world
to see this Lower-Price
Store, and usually their
comment is:
"You .have here some
thing unique, something
different to anything else
we have ever seen. You
not only have 1 o w,e r
prices, but there is un
usual opportunity of
choosing at these lower
prices!"
What impresses them
most is that all the mer
chandise is such good,
sound quality ; that this is
not a dumping ground,
like so many .other below
ground stores.
Whereupon, we remind
them that this is Wana
maker's, as well as the

that the complete name is

when one cannot find
many thing3 here at less

impossible . to advertise
them all. Unless one shops
elsewhere, c o m p a r ing
quality for 'quality, one
does not always realize
the genuine money saving
on that which is bought in
the Down Stairs Store.

$6 for a 9x12 Size
FRESH, new rugs, recently made and just received
in quantity from Japan at prices lower than
the sale prices of dried-out warehouse rugs with
only half the service in them !
It is four years since we have had a 9x12 Japa
nese straw rug at $6 and then it was only half as
good as these.
We consider this the best rug opportunity we have
ever offered.
Never, tp Our Knowledge
has a lot of rugs as good as these been offered at
such low prices.
Never was a more opportune time for a sale
than now, right at the beginning of the Summ,er
season, with bungalows, cottages, boats, porches and
even business offices needing seasonable rugs.
The straw is fresh, clean, first-quality rice straw.
The rugs are woven with strong, heavy, double
warps, better than usually found in rugs of this type.
The well chosen, attractive patterns are sten
ciled in oil and there is a choice of various blues,
green, brown and tan tones.
Every rug is bound all around and the bindings
are carefully sewn.
