Women and
Their Interests
Summertime
Fables
By DOROTHY PTX
paralyzed the Grocery Trade, and put
Business on the Blink. Therefore 1
opine that It Is Home Sweet Home
for yours this Season."
"Nix on that Economy Stuff," re
plied the Older Daughter. "I appre
hend that there Is Nothing Doing in
Town In Summer, and so it's me for
the Mountains, where I can Write
Back how I am Sleeping under a
Blanket in July. Besides, Summer Is
the Open Season for the Matrimonial
Hunt, and when a Young Woman
has Collected as many Birthdays as I
have it behooves her to bo Hot on the
Trail."
"Your 'Words are Words of Wis
dom," groaned <the Poor Father, "yet
how I am to Get a Bank Roll to Stake
you In the Game is a Conundrum that
gives me the Willies to Contemplate.'
"Cut the Appropriation In Half,"
said the Second Daughter. turning a
Sympathetic Look upon her Father,
"for I will remain at Home, and Wear
my Old Clothes, while Sister Dolls
herself up In the Glad Rags at Fash
ionable Summer Resorts."
Thereupon the Old Sister Fared
Forth, and began Playing the Bis
Time, at the Swell Summer Joints.
She would change her Clothes 'steen
times a Day for the Inspection of
the Old Cats who sat upon the Hotel
Veranda and Clawed to Pieces the
Looks and Reputation of every Pul
ohritudinous Woman that passed
them. Also at Night she Tangoed
with other Maidens, than which there
Is no Sadder Sight on Earth.
But sho did not Grab Oft any En
gagement Ring, for the Excellent
Reason that the only Men In Sight
were either Dotty old Grandpas who
were already tied up with an Ample
Sufficiency of Wife, or else they were
Schoolboys with an Allowance of $1.50
a Week for Spending Money.
In the meantime the Good Sister
who had Remained at Home in the
City was having an Uproarious Time,
because while Most of the Girls in
their Set had gone away for the
Summer, all of the Men were still
Attending to Business at the Old
Stand. Therefore, she. had a Monopoly
which she Proceeded to Work in a
Way that showed that Rockefeller
will have Nothing on Women when
they get the Chance.
Dally and Nightly her Door was
Besieged by Youths with Automobiles,
and Motor Boats, and the Price of
Roof Gardens in their Pockets, and
as she always said that she Preferred
the City in Summer, and did not think
it At All Warm, three Misguided
Young Men asked her Hand in Mar
riage, under the Delusion that she
would Hold the same Views after she
was Wed.
Moral—This Fable teaches us Two
Things.
First, that Virtue is its own Re
ward If we know how to Collect the
Dividend.
Second. It Teaches us the Wisdom
of Fishing where the Fish are Plen
tiful.
HOW I CURED
MY EYES
THIS FREE PRESCRIPTION DID IT
"My eyes were in a terrible state;; I
could" hardly stand It. They were red
and Inflamed; felt as though they had
sand in them. They would ache and
burn dreadfully and caused Incessant
headaches. I could hardly read at all.
After wearing my glasses my eyes felt
strained and overworked. By chance I
met a man whose eyes had bothered
him the same way. He gave me the
following prescription which he said
had cured him and since had enabled
him to discard his glasses."
"If you wear glasses or have eye
trouble similar to mine I advise you to
have this formula filled at once. H. C.
Kennedy or any druggist can fix it up
for you. Here It is—
-5 Grains Optona (1 tablet)
2 ounces Water.
Allow to dissolve, then bathe the eyes
by means of an eye cup three to four
times daily—oftener if convenient. Just
note how quickly your eyes will feel
fine. It doe>s not smart or burn, is ab
solutely harmless and any druggist who
knows the formula will tell you that
you need not hesitate to use it. If you
try It I am sure you will be Just as en
thusiastic over it as I am. Cut this out
so you will always have the prescrip
tion."—Advertisement.

THURSDAY EVENING,
THE LAST SHOT 1
By FREDERICK PALMER
Coprrtßht, 1(114, by Charlra Srrlbner'a Stona.
fOon tinned]
"Eighty million to our fifty
million!"
"Because of the odda, they think wo
•re bound to yield, no matter if we are
In the right!"
"Let them come!" said .iba butcher's
aon. 'lf we have to go, itwrtll be on a
wave of blood."
"And they will come some time,"
said the judge's son. "They want our
land."
"We gain nothing If we heat them
back. War will bo the ruin of busi
ness," said the backer's son.
"Yes, we are prosperous now. Let
well enough alone!" said the manufao
turer's son.
"Some say it makes wages higher,"
said tha laborer's son, "but I am think
ing it's a poor way of raising your i
pay."
"There won't be any war," said the
banker's son. "There can't be without
ciedlt. The banking Interests will
not permit it."
"There can always be war," said the
Judge' 6 son. "always when one people
determines to strike at another people
—even if It brings bankruptcy."
"It would be a war that would make
all others in history a mere exchange
of skirmishes. Every able-bodied man
in line—automatics a hundred shots a
minute—guns a doien shots a minute
—and aeroplanes and dirigibles!" said
the manufacturer's son.
"To the death, too!"
"And not for glory! We of the 6Sd
who live on the frontier will be fight
ing for our homes "
"If we lose them we'll never get
them back. Better die than be beaten!"
Herbert Stransky, with deep-set
eyes, slightly squinting inward, and a
heavy Jaw, an enormous man who was
the best shot In the company when
he cared to be, had listened in silence
to the others, his rather thick but ex
pressive lips curving with cynicism.
Hla only speech all the morning had
been In the midst of the reception In
the public square of the town when he
Bald:
"Thie home-coming doesn't mean
much to me. Home? Hell! The
hedgerows of the world are my home!"
He appeared older than his years,
and hard and bitter, except when his
eyes would light with a feverish sort
of fire which shone as he broke Into
a lull in the talk.
"Comrades," he began.
"Let us hear from the Socialist!" a
Tory exclaimed.
"No, the anarchist!" shouted a So
cialist.
"There won't be any war!" said
Btransky, his voice gradually rising to
the pitch of an agitator reliehing the
sensation of his own words. "Patriot
ism Is the played-out trick of the ruling
classes to keep down the proletariat.
There won't be any war! 'Why? Be
cause there are too many enlightened
men on both sides who do the world's
work. We of the 53d are a pro
vincial lot, but throughout our army
there are thousands upon thousands
like me. They march, they drill, but
when battle cotnes they will refuse
to fight—my cdmradee in heart, to
whom the flag of this country means
no more than that of any other coun
try!"
"Hold on! The flag is sacred!"
cried the banker's son.
"Yes, that will do!"
"Shut up!"
Other voices formed a chorus ot
angry protest.
"I knew you thought it; now Tve
caught you!" This from the sergeant,
who had seen hard flghtlng against
a savage foe in Africa and there
fore was particularly bitter about
the Bodlapoo afTair. The welt of a
scar on the gaunt, fever-yellowed
cheek turned a deeper red ae he seized
Btransky by the collar of the blouse.
Btransky raised his free hand as if
to strike, but paused as he faced the
company's boyish captain, slender of
figure, aristocratic of feature. His in
dignation was as evident as {he ser
geant's, but he was biting his lips to
keep it under control.
"You heard what he said, sir?"
"The latter part—enough!"
"It's incitation to mutiny! An ex
ample!"
"Yes, put him under arrest"
The sergeant still held fast to the
collar of Stransky's blouse. Btransky
could have shaken himself free, as %
mastiff frees himself from a puppy,
but this was resistance to arrest and
he had not yet made up his mind to
go that far. His muscles were weaving
under the sergeant's grip, his eyes
glowing as with volcanic fire watting
on the madness of impulse tor erup
tion.
"I wonder if It Is really worth while
to put him under arrest?" said some
one at the edge of the group in amiable
Inquiry.
The voice came from an officer of
about thirty-five, who apparently bad
strolled over from a near-by aeroplane
station to look at the regiment. From
hla shoulder hung the gold cords of
the staff. It was Col. Arthur Lanstron,
whose plane had skimmed the Gal
lands' garden wall for the "easy
bump" ten years ago. There was some
thing more than mere titular respect
In the way the young captain saluted
—admiration and the diffident, boyish
glance of recognition which does not
presume to take the lead in recalling
a slight acquaintance with a man of
distinction.
"Dellarme! It's all of two years
since we met at Miss Gallan'/a, isn't
It?" Lanstron said, shaking hands with
the captain.
"Yes, Just before we were ordered
south," said Dellarme, obviously
pleased to be remembered.
"I overheard your speech," Lanstron
continued, ntfddiag toward Stransky.
"It was very informing."
A crowd of soldiers v. as now press
! tng around .-k., a::J in the front
rank was Gra::df£'.'-?r Fragini.
"Said our flag •KC.O no better'n any
other flag, did he?" piprd the old man.
"Beat him to a pulp! That's what the
Hussars wculd havo do-.e."
"If you don't rcird te'ling it in pub
lic, Stransky, I should like to know
your origin," oa!d Lnnstrcn, prepared
to be as considerate of an anarchist's
pri vate feelings as of anybody's.
Stransky squinted his eyes down the
bony bridge cf hie :icse and grinned
sardonically,
"That won't tr.ko cn?wered.
"My father, so far r.3 I cou'.J it!~nt:fv
him, died in Jail cad my mother of
drink."
"That was hardly t? the purple!" ob
served Lanstron thoughtfully,
"No, to the red!" answered Stranc'/.y
savagely.
"I mean that it was hardly inclined
to make you take a roseate view of life
as a beautiful thing In a well-ordered
world where favors of fortune are
evenly distributed," continued Lan
stron.
"Rather to make me rejoice in the
hope of a new order of things—the
recreation of society!" Stransky ut
tered the sentiment with the trium
phant pride of a pupil who knows hie
text-book thoroughly.
By this time the colonel command
ing the regiment, who had noticed the
excitement from a distance, appeared,
forcing a gap for his passage through
the crowd with sharp words. He, too,
recognised Lanstron. After they had
shaken hands, the colonel scowled as
he heard the situation explained, with
the old sergeant, still holding fast to
Stransky'a collar, a capable and In
sistent witness for the prosecution;
while Stransky, the fire in his eyea
dying to coals, stat-ed straight ahead.
"It is only a suggestion, of course,"
said Lanstron, speaking quite ae a
spectator to avoid the least indication
of interference with the colonel's au
thority, "but it seems possible that
Stransky has clothed his wrongs in a
garb that could never set well on his
nature If he tried to wear It in prac
tice. He is really an individualist. En
raged, he would fight well. I should
like nothing better than a force of
Stranskys If I had to defend a redoubt
in a last stand."
"Yes, he might fight." The colonel
looked hard at Stransky's rigid profile,
with Its tight lips and chin as firm as
if cut out of stone. "You never know
who will fight In the pinch, they Bay.
But that's speculation. It's the ex
ample that I have to deal with."
"He Is not of the Insidious, plotting
type. He spoke his mind openly," sug
gested Lanstron. "If you give him the
limit of the law, why. he becomes a
martyr to persecution. I should say
that his remarks might pass for bar
rack-room gassing."
"Very well," said the colonel, taking
the shortest way out of the difficulty.
"We will excuse the first offense."
"Yes, sir!" said the sergeant me
chanically as he released his grip of
the offender. "We had two anarchists
in my company in Africa," he observed
In loyal agreement with orders. "They
fought like devils. The only trouble
was to keep them from shooting inno
cent natives for sport."
Stransky'a collar was still crumpled
on the nape of his neck. He remained
stock-still, staring down the bridge of
his nose. For a full minute he did not
vouohsafe so much as a glance upward
over the change in his fortunes. Then
he looked around at Lanstron glower
lngty.
'1 know who you are!" he said.
"You were born In the purple. You
have had education, opportunity, posi
tion—everything that you and your
kind want to keep for your kind You
are smarter than the others. You
would hang a man with spider webs
lnetead of hemp. But I won't fight for
you! No, I won't!"
He threw back his head with a de
termination In his defiance BO intense
that it had a certain kind of dignity
that freed it of theatrical affectation.
"Yes, I was fortunate; but perhaps
nature was not altogether unkind to
you," said Lanstron. "In Napoleonic
times, Btransky, I think you might
even have carried a marshal's baton in
your knapsack."
"You—what rot!" A Bort of triumph
played around Stransky's full lips and
his jaw shot out challenglngly. "No,
nerer against my comrades on the oth
er side of the border!" he concluded,
his dogged stare returning.
Now the colonel gave the order to
tafl in; the bugle sounded and the cen
tipede's legs began to assemble on the
road. But Btransky remained a statue,
his rifle untouched on the sward. He
seemed of a mind to let the regiment
go on without him.
"Stransky, fall In!" called the ser
geant
Still Stransky did not move. A com
rade picked up the rifle and fairly
thrust it into his hands.
"Come on, Bert, and knead dough
with the rest of us!" he whispered.
"Come on I Cheer up!" Evidently hla
oomradea liked Stransky.
"No!" roared Stransky, bringing the
rifle down on the ground with a heavy
blow.

DRAPED TUNICS ARE
NEW AND SMART
FOR EVENING GOWNS
One of the Prettiest Skirts of tha
Opening Season
By MAY MANTON
8366 Draped Skirt, 24 to 32 waist.
The draped tunic is one of the newest
and _ prettiest developments of that
favorite model, the prettiest for dressy
cottumes whether designed for afternoon
or evening wear. This one is eminently
graceful and, since the foundation skirt
can be cut in any desired length, it ia
adapted to the opera and to dinner as
well as to the fascinating dance. In the
illustration, it is made of charnieuse
satin with the tunic or over-drapeiy of
chiffon with a lace frill but, since all fash
ionable materials are soft, they all drape
effectively and, consequently, there are
many that can be used. The soft taffetas
are to be smart throughout the season,
charnieuse promises to be much worn ana
crfipe effects continue all their vogue. The
foundation skirt is made in two pieces
with the drapery arranged over it. The
finish may be made at either the high or
the natural waist line.
For the medium size, the skirt with
train will require yds. of material 27,
6 36, 4it yds. 44 in. wide; the skirt
without train 7 yds. 27, 5M vda. 36, 4
yds. 44 in. wide, with »yi yas. of lace
in. wide. The width of the skirt in
round length is 2 yds.
The pattern 8366 is cut hi sires from 24
to 32 inches waist measure. It will be
mailed to any address by the Fashion
Department ciif this paper, on receipt of
ten cents.
