Helen's Mother Reluctantly \ppeals
to Her For Help in a financial Way
Helen laid down her mother's let
ter and went over to the window.
Pressing: her hot oheek against the
chill pane of glass, she gazed down
at the street with its ragged piles of
coiled snow.
An old woman with a shawl over
her bent head and a large basket on
her arm was hurrying by. The wind
whipped out her thin skirt, showing
her begrudged petticoat and her
slattern shoes.
Helen watched her out of sight,
and then turned back to the letter.
A few moments before she had
opened it with the pleasant ex
pectancy of her mother's usual
cheerful, home-newsy letter. But
the news this had brought had left
her crushed, bewildered.
That her father's practice was not
■what it had been and that he was
not very strong Helen knew. But
that things should be so bad—it
came as a staggering shock.
She must either ask Warren for
money to help them—or the home
must be mortgaged. That was the
appalling alternative this letter put
before her.
Torn with conflicting impulses
Helen walked distractedly from one
window to the other. She must
help them —she MUST! Yet how
could she put this extra burden
upon WarS'en? All winter he had
been complaining that business was
bad. Hosv could she go to him with
' thi»?
\gain she took up the letter.
Carterstown, Mo.,
Monday, Feb. 23,
Dear Helen —r cannot tell you
how hard it is for me to write this
letter. But when I see that this
worry is killing your father 1 feel
that now you ought to know.
For the last few months he has
been far from well, and his hearing
is much worse. This deafness, of
course, interferes with his prac
tice, and has lost him many pa
tients. I wrote you of the new doe
tor who has opened up an office here. :
He has a car, and keeps a young
woman attendant in his office. All of
the new people are going to him, and
■ome of your father's old patients.
Helen, things have become so,
had that unless you can help us a;
little now we will have to mortgage
the home. A.nd I'm afraid of the cf- I
feet that will have on your father. |
Tou remember the lot in North
Main street? Well, we mortgaged j
that a year ago last Fall. I did not ■
tell you then, for r thought things
would be better, and 1 did not want
to worry you needlessly.
I know what a shock this will be.
and how you will dread to ask help of
Warren. I know how you shrink from I
asking him for money, and I never
thought you would ever have to ask
Xor a cent for us.
Of course, everything we have will
some day be yours, and if you talk it
over with Warren he may be willing
to take a small .mortgage on the
house. We would much rather feel
that it was with you than with Strang- 1
crs.
Tet Warren may not be willing to j
do this, for I have heard him say that
he did not believe in any kind of busi
ness dealings with relatives. He might
rather loan your father a smaller sum
outright. Two hundred dollars, r
think, would be enough to carry us I
through the rest of the winter and !
tiprlng.
When the warm weather comes |
your father can get around better. '
end then we will make something from :
the garden and chickens. This yearl
I'll put up a lot of jelly and preserves.
J sold all I made last summer and
had orders for more.
I cannot bear to think that we shall
ever become a real burden on you and
Warren. It would kill your father.
But if we could get along without tak
ing the mortgage, if you could help
us a little through this winter, I think
then we can help ourselves.
Cannot write more now, for he has
just come In with one of his sick
headaches. He has them so often,
they seem to be growing worse all the
time. I think that is what affects his
hearing. I want him to go to the new (

FRIDAY EVENING, BARBISBURG ffijjftfl TELEGRAPH MARCH 20,1914.
an incident in life, but all of life it
self, are never wlso in playing their
parts. They love without restraint, they
are just as controlled In the fear,
hatred and resentment of jealousy.
The man and woman who are jealous,
and show it, defeat their own happi
ness, but the objects of their adora
tion and suspicion have the satisfac
tion of knowing it Is not a lovo that
has bloomed before.
A young girl writes me that sho
has every assurance of her sweet
heart's love, but—
"There iB a girl that cares a lot for
him and she puts herself on him
every time she sees him, and if wo
are at a party she hangs around him
so that I never can have a pleasant
conversation with him. He says he
doesn't care for her, but I hear he is
at her house « hen not at mine."
Another girl tells a story of jeal
ousy as follows:
"He admits he writes to her, but
says he never goes to see her. I
scold him about it all the time. He
calls on mo every night in the week
but one. and I am very suspicious.
Do you think he goes to see her the
night he is not with me?"
Another girl, with as convincing
proof of her sweetheart's lo've, wants
j doctor to be examined—but you know
lyour father.
Now Helen, if you feel you cannot
| ask Warren, don't hesitate to write
land tell me so frankly. I do not want
|to ask you to do anything that will
| be too hard, or that will make things
| strained between you and him. But
j I thought now I ought to let you
1 know.
With love, as ever,
' TT , MOTHER.
Helen opened a drawer in the desk
'and took out her check book. Forty
| three dollars and eighty cents! That
j Has all she had of her own!
I With bitter resentment she thought
of the twenty-five she had loaned
Airs. Thurston. For the moment she
felt like calling her up and demand
ing the money. It had been over a
month, and she had not heard a word
, from her. She would wait until the
I first—not a day longer. If Mrs.
I I hurston did not return the money
; by then she would ask her for it.
A Slight Relief
j Tearing out a check, Helen now
i filled It out to her mother for S4O.
jShe would send this by special de
livery. Hurriedly she wrote the
i letter.
IDear Mother:
I have only $43 in the bank and
am sending you a check for .$4 0. This
will help out until I have time to
think what I can do. Your letter
just came and I am still bewildered.
I did not dream things were so bad.
ou should have let me know sooner.
1 just loaned a Mrs. Thurston s2s—
makes me wild to think of It. I
am sure she will pay it back, but I
may have to wait—and I could have
sent it to you now.
I feel very guilty when 1 think of
the money I've spent on clothes lately.
You see Warren makes me an allow
ance of |SO a month for myself—
that is for my clothes, carfare, etc.
Of course, everything for the house
he pays for, and he's often very gen
erous about setting me an expensive
gown or coat. While we were in
Paris he gave me a lot of extra money
for clothes. But SSO is all I have reg
ularly.
The worst of it is that in the last
few months he's complained of busi
ness being very bad and we've been
trying to cut down our household ex
penses. So you see how I dread to
ask him for anything just now.
Mother, if I send you twenty-five
dollars—half of my allowance each
month—do you think you could
manage on that until Warren's busi
ness is better? If you were sure of
that much every month, besides what
lather may make, don't you think you
could get along. And Warren need
not know. 1 have plenty of clothes
now. I got so many in Paris last year
that I will need almost nothing this
Spring.
Oh. I'd much rather do this than
ask Warren for money now. He
might be very willing to give It to
me; he might even send you so much
a month himself; but I don't know—
and I'm afraid to ask him. You know,
in some ways he's most generous; yet
in other ways he is \ery, very hard.
I suppose I've always been and al
ways will be afraid of him, but I can't
help that. And now rhat things have
been going very smoothly for the past
year I can't tell you how I shrink from
doing anything that njight make con
ditions strained. So I'll try first every
possible way of helping you without
asking him.
If I could only make some money
myself! Perhaps there's some way
I can. At least, you can be sure of
twenty-five dollars a month until I
can find some way of sending you
more. I'll write again this week
Lovingly, HELEN.
It was with a slight feeling of re
lief that Helen mailed this letter. At
least the forty dollars would help
some. It would give her time to
think.
A Rig Shock
Somehow she had never thought of
her, father as not being fairly pros
perous. The possibility of his ever
needing Warren's help had never oc
curred to her.
That there were many men who did
help their wives' families, she knew,
but she had never dreamed that
Warren would have to help hers.
She felt that he had a sort of con
tempt for dependent people. His own
family were all well off, which would
make it harder for him to understand
and sympathize. His creed always
was that every one should work and
save while young, so there would be
no need for dependency In old age.
But Helen knew that her father
HAD worked; his years as a village
physician had been full of hardships
and self-sacrifices. But he had al
ways been over-generous, giving
much of his services free, and now at
sixty-two, he had almost nothing to
show for his life's work.
Twenty-five dollars a month! Would
that be enough to help them? Must
she force down her pride and show
this letter to Warren? What would
he do? What would be his attitude?
What if he should say that he had
all the expenses now that he could
nieet— that he could do nothing? If
he said "that, she knew that for
months things would be strained be
tween them. There would always be
the feeling that she had asked him
to help her father—and he had re
fused.
No; .she COULD not ask him She
was AFRAID to ask him She must
manage to help them in some other
, way.
Ito know how she can find out what
I he does the two evenings a week he is
not with her. "It would break my
heart," she writes, "to find he calls on
another girl."
Very Young
The writers of these letters are very,
very young. If they were older they
would know that no man's lovo Is held
by nagging; they would have learned
that jealousy is a flattery a lover soon
resents. Pleased at first because of
its display, since it shows the girl loves
him, he grows angry when it exhibits
itself in nagging, suspicion and dis
trust. and if he is as wise as his fathers
he transfers his heart to a harbor of
I love that is more peaceful.
It is third nature to be jealous, but
It Is possible to get such control of
this very human weakness that it
takes to itself all the strength of in
difference. The lover Is longest the
lover whoh is kept guessing; he Is
truest who has the girl to win, and
every mark of jealousy is proof that
,'she is already won and regards him
jas such a prize she loses all pride
lin her desire to keep him.
Green eyes, girls, are never the eyes
that keep a lover.

A BUSY BOX OFFICE
There were many calls for tickets at
the box office of the Majestic Theater I
this morning for the plays that will
be given by Helen Grayce and her
company all of next week. Unusual in
terest has been aroused over the ap

the fact that she is giving local the

late Broadway successes artistically
presented at sensible prices. The de

was particularly brisk when Miss
Grayce and Earl Ritchie will give an
exhibition of the various steps as
danced in the tango at society balls

LAI HON KIM
Not the least of the striking novelties
of this week's bill at the Orpheum Is
the presence of Prince L«1 Mon Kim, •
the splendid baritone singer, who is not
only the first Chinese trlller ever seen
on a local stage, but who is the only
Chinese male singer appearing before
the amusement public. Certainly an
act of this caliber should appeal and
interest just as it is at tne Locust
street playhouse. Of course, that title
part must be taken for granted, but
there la no denying the fact that the
artist is Chinese, and also that his
ennunclatlon Is perfect and even sur
passes that or many native Amerfara
singers. The singer appears in neatf
I native attire and his songs are fortu
i nately not the songs peculiar to his
native land. To the contrary they are i;
American, all of them ballads except a
rag and that he has translated into i
Chinese. So If you want to try out your 11
ability at learning Chinese, go hear
Prince Mon Kim singing "Everybody's -
Doing It" In his native tongue. The
management will offer a liberal prize
to anybody who can learn it from at
tending a week's performances. Seri
ously, however, he sings "I Hear You
! Calling Me," "I Miss You Most of All"
and several others In exquisite voice.
Prince Lai Mon Kim offers one of the •
sterling attractions grouped about the

From the Start."—Advertisement.
