And Helen stepped out of the elevator and made her way to ward the counter at the other end of the store The day had been warm, but there were some things that were absolutely necessary, and Helen had ventured downtown In spite Of the heat. One thin* that could not be postponed was a birthday present for Warren. She had started out ahout 10 o'clock with a vague idea of buying something that would be a real surprise, but nothing seemed to appeal to her in the light of a difference and she had almost decided to buy a tie and go home, the heat was so intense. The crowd was terrible. Helen had imagined that the stores would be almost deserted, but already the cursious weer on the lookout for the first glimpse of Kail styles, anil every department was tilled with a crowd of rushing, chattering women. Helen reached the ties and looked at several in the case before asking to have any brought out. There seemed to be a monotony in every thing. Even the ties showed nothing original. Perhaps there were some put away. Anyway it would do no harm to ask. "What can I do for you, madam?" asked the clerk, coining up at that mo ment. "Something in ties? Perhaps you have seen something you like in the case. Have you looked around?" "Yes. but I don't like any in the case. Have you anything else?" "Nothing but what you see, madam. How do you like this one?" bringing out an atrocity in blue and green with an undertone of purple. "These are j the very newest things; all the men are wearing them." "No, I didn't want anything so de-] cided. If these are all you have 11 won't talke anything." The clerk put, the tie back in the case and regarded ! her coldly as she walked away. She Decides to Rest Before Resuming ller Search She decided to rest a few minutes; before trying anywhere else. She; would go to Thirty-fourth street and ] have a soda. That would be cooling | and give her time to collect her j thoughts. Perhaps Warren would' like something in the way of jewelry. : although she was perfectly sure he ■ had everything he needed. On the corner she encountered aj huge crowd—something had evidently i happened—-but she hurried on with out stopping to see what it was. In | the cool little candy store, with an | electric fan buzzing soothingly away overhead and a frosty drink before her j on the little round table, Helen felt so much cooler that she decided to' stay down and look at draperies. They ! would have to have the living room j done over in the Fall, and. after all,, there wasn't so much time left before ' Warren took her West. She gathered up her things to leave j and was sauntering slowly hack to- ] ward the shopping district when some 1 one behind her said laughingly: "How much longer are you going to make me follow you before you turn around?" "Louise! What are you doing down- i town on a day like this?" "I might ask what you are doing. 11 should thinlr you would lie so furious! that you hadn't stayed up at the j Bluffs that even a hint at cooler | weather would hardly tempt you out to shop." "What about yourself? Aren't you planning to stay in the city all sum mer, just becaitse Boh can't get away?" "And aren't you buck in the city when you might have stayed where you were. just because Warren couldn't, stay?" mocked Louise. Helen laughed. "Well, anyway, I have a perfectly good reason for being downtown. I want to get Warren something really nice for his birthday. By the way, won't you and Bob come up for din ner that night, if you haven't any thing else to do?" "Delighted. I can't think of any thing I'd rather do. Bob and I are looking forward to the Fall, when we. can go to housekeeping. Of course, everything is simply fine where we are. but I do want a home of my own so badly!" 1/Oiilse Tells of the Cnnd Points of Her Husband "T do hope you can settle some where near us.

J, I HV . •©• ~n WEMHHHHHHHBHHMijIHV TUESDAY EVENING, i said this wistfully, but Louise was so I eager to speak that she hardly noticed i Helen's ma nner at all. , "Oh, Helerv" she went on. "Bob is such a dear. Do you know, he actu ally tries to make up to me for stay-| ] ing in the city. As if such a thing] i were necessary. But he always comes! home with plans for week-end trips and all sorts of nice things. Be tween you and me, Helen, he really' spoils me." I Helen tried to smother the little envious pang in her heart. Whenever I she saw Louise it was there, no mat ter how hard she tried to reason it I 'away. Surely she ought to be the| happiest woman in the world. What! i had she to wish for that she really' ought to have? And then that little voice would whisper maridingly: "You miss the little first thrills, the little attentions that you once took as a matter of course, but which are lacking now."; Did she regret anything? Would: she liave anything different if it were possible for her to pick and choose? ! Nothing but to have Warren a little] i more considerate of her feelings, a i i little more loverlike, a little more like 1 the man she had married, who, al-j though he had always been more dic ! tatorial than Bob, was at one time just I i as tender, just as attentive. They had stopped at the store [ where both did nearly all their shop- i l'ing. "Do you mind going upstairs with | ine. first?" said Louise suddenly. "I i have a definite thing that 1 came' i downtown to get, and after that 1 can ; help you with Warren's present, if you j ; like." A few minutes later they were get-! I ting off at the sixth floor. "Bob is going to let me be really j I extravagant for once. I don't let him [ | spoil me like this very often, but I I have been wanting this set for ages. | It's for my own little boudoir," she ! explained, "and it's a tea set, pale I yellow Limoges. Here it is, isn't it j ! sweet?" And Helen found herself, ! picking out cups and saucers and a j tiny cream jug and sugar bowl, while j I Louise added a lemon dish and a j <iuaint tea pot. I "You must come up often after we J ! are settled, and we'll have tea to- j ] arether. Won't It be fun? And now," 'as she gave the address to the girl, J j "for the real business of the occa- j sion." ] She Hits oil Just the Present For j Warren I "Yes, what do you suppose he'd 1 like?" "I think I know jus the thing. How would a smoking set do? Men always , like things like that, and I remember] hearing Warren say once that he must I get one." Like a flash Helen remembered the (many times Warren had actually ex pressed a desire for one. That would | j'be jus the thing. Besides giving him j : a present, the gift itself would be , | something he approved of, something ! to be appreciated, not just something to say "thank you" for and then for get that he possessed the thing at all. "Louise, you're a genius; really you are. Do you know I have heard War- i ren speak about that more times than I i I could count, but I just couldn't re- I member It at the right time!" ! "Bob has one. you know. I think iit was over at our house one night '.that I heard Warren say that he wanted one Here we are! Well, there are enough to choose from, any way." "Did you want one with a stand? We have a splendid one over here with a stand attached," volunteered [the salesman as Helen poked curi ously into the mysterious belongings of the trays. "This is a beauty, Helen. I like the stand ones better, don't you?" called Louise, who was examining the ! one that the salesman had designated ] while he pointed out the many ad-' vantages. "Yes; you can send that one up," i she said finally, after she had ex- \ claimed at its completeness and had ] been assured that there wasn't anoth- j er like It In the store. "You're sure he'll like it, Louise? I want him to like It better than any present I have ever given him." "My dear, I know he'll like It. I'm ! so sure that if he doesn't I'll be will ing to buy It from you to give to Bob. Bob's hasn't a stand, you know, but it's practically new: so that's as surance enough for you. Isn't it?"

[Continued] "Come on: .... is not made that can get me! tuine on!" cried the giant Eugene Aronson. Nearly all felt the exhilaration of movement In company. Then came the sound that generations had drilled for without hearing; the sound that eummons the Imagination of man In the thought of how he will feel and act when he hears it; the sound that Is everywhere lik" the song snatches of bees driven whirling through the air. "That's It! We're under flre! We're under flre!" flashed a crooked light ning recognition of the sound through every brain. There was no sisn of the enemy: no telling where the bullets came from. Whish-whish! Th-ipp-whing! The refrain gripped Peterkin's imagination with an unseen hand. He seemed to be suffocating. Ho wanted to throw htmeelf down and hold his hands in front of his head. While Pilzer and Aronson were not thinking, only run ning, Peterkin was thinking with the rapidity of a man '"ailing from a high building. He v.-as certain only that he was bound to strike ground. "An inch is as good as a mile!" He recollected the captain's teaching. "Only one of a thousand bullet* flretf In war ever kills a men' —but he was certain that he had heard a million already. He looked around to find that he was still keeping up with Eu gene and felt the thrill of the bravery of fellowship at sight of the giant's flushed, confident face reveling in the spirit of a charge. And then. Just then, Eugene convulsively threw up his arms, dropped his rifle, and whirled on his heel. As he went down his hand clutched at his left breast and came away red and dripping. After one wild backward glance, Pe terkin plunged ahead. "Eugene!" Hugo Mallin had stopped and bent over Eugene In the supreme instinct of that terrible second, sup porting his comrade's head. "The bullet is not —made —" Eugene whispered, the rulins passion strong to the last. A flicker of the eyelids, a gurgle in the throat, and he was dead. "Here, you are not going to get out this way!" Fracasse shouted, in the irritation of haste, slapping Hugo with his sword. "Go on! That's hospital corps work." Hugo had a glimpse of the captain's rigid features and a last one of Eu gene's, white and 6till and yet as if he were about to speak his favorite boast; then he hurried on, his side glance showing other proserate forms. One form a few yards away half rose to call "Hospital!" and fell back, struck mortally by a second bullet. "That's what you get if you forget instructions," said Fracasee with no sense of brutality, only professional exasperation. Keep down, you wound ed men!" he shouted at the top of his voice. The colonel of the 128 th had not looked for immediate resistance. He had told Fracasse's men to occupy the knoll expeditiously. But by the com mon Impulse of military training, no less than in answer to the whistle's call, in face of the withering flre they dropped to earth at the base of a knoll, where Hugo threw himself down at full length in his place in line next to Peterkin. "Fire polntblcnk at the crest in front of you! I saw a couple of men standing up there!" called Fracasse. "Fire fast! That's the way to keep down their Are—pointblanli, I tell you! You're firing-into the sky! I want to see more dust kicked up. Fire fast! We'll have them out of there soon! They're only an outpost." Hugo was firing vaguely, like a man In a dream. Pilzer was shooting to kill. Hie eye had # the steely gleam of his rifle sight and the liver patch on his cheek was a deeper hue as he sought to avenge Eugene's death. Drowned by the racket of their own Are, not even Peterkin was hearing the whish-whish of the bullets from Dellarme's company now. He did not know that the blacksmith's son, who Pll*er Wh Shooting to KIN. tha fourth man from him, lay with his chin on his rifle stock and a tiny trickle of blood from a hole In his forehead running down the bridge of his nose. SARRISBURG TELEGRAPH Young Dellarme, new to his cap tain's rank, watching the plain through his glasses, saw the move ment of mounted officers to the rear of the 128 th as a reason for summon ing his men. "Creep up! Don't show yourselves! Creep up carefully—carefully!" he kept repeating as they crawled for ward on their stomachs. "And no one is to fire until the command cornea." Hugging the cover of the ridge of fresh earth which they had thrown up the previous night, they watched the white posts. Stransky. who had been rumlnatlvely silent all the morning, was In his place, but he was not look ing at the enemy. Cautiously, to avoid a reprimand, he raided his head to en able him to glance along the line. All the faces seemed drawn and claylsh. "They don't want to fight! They're Just here because they're ordered here and haven't the character to defy au thority," he thoughi. "The leaven is working! My tlmo Is coming!" For Dellarme the minute had come when all his training was to be put to a test. The figures on the other side of the white posts were rtoing. He was to prove by the way he directed a com pany of infantry in action whether or not he was worthy of his captain's rank. He smiled cheerily. In order that he might watch how each man used his rifle, he drew back of the line, his slim body erect as be rested on one knee, his head level with the other heads while he fingered his whistle. The instant that Eugene Aronson sprang over the white post a blast from the whistle began the war. It was a signal, too, for Stransky to play the part he had planned; to make the speech of hie life. His six feet of stature shot to its feet with a Jack-in-the-box abruptness, under the impulse of a mighty and reckless passion. "Men, stop firing!" he howled thun derously. "Stop firing on your broth ers! Like you, they are only the pawns of the ruling class, who keep us all pawns in order that they may have champagne and caviare. Com rades, I'll lead you! Comrades, we'll take a white flag aud go down to meet our comrades and we'll find that they think as we do! I'll lead you!" The appeal was drowned in the cracking of the rifles working as regu larly as punching-machines in a fac tory. Every soldier was seeing only his sight and the running figures un der It. Mechanically and automatical ly, training had been projected into action, anticipation into realization. A spectator might as well have called to a man in a hundred-yard dash to stop running, to an oarsman in a race to Jump out of his shell. The company sergeant sprang foi Stransky with an oath. But Stransky was in no mood to submit. He felled the sergeant with a blow and, reck lessly defiant, stared at Dellarma while the men, steadily filing, were still oblivious of the scene. The ser geant, stunned, rose to his knees and reached for his revolver. Dellarme, bent over to keep his head below the j crest, had already drawn his as he hastened toward them. "Will you get down? Will you take your place with your rifle?" demanded Dellarme. Stransky laughed thunderously lr scorn. He was handsome, titanic, and barbaric, with his huge shoulderi stretching his blouse, which fell loose ly around his narrow hips, while the fist that had felled the sergeant wai still clenched. "No!" said Stransky. "You wonl kill much If you kill me and you'd kill less if you shot yourself! God Al mighty! Do you think I'm afraid? Me —afraid?" His eyes In a bloodshot glare, a* uncompromising as those of a bull In an arena watching the next move ol the red cape of the matador, regarded Dellarme, who hesitated in admiration of the picture of human force before him. But the old sergeant, smarting under the insult of the blow, his sand stone features mottled with red patches, had no compunctions of this order. He was ready to act as execu> tloner. "If you don't want to shoot, I can! An example—the law! There's nc other way of dealing with him! Give the word!" he said to Dellarme. Stransky laughed, now in strident cynicism. Dellarme still hesitated, recollecting Lanstron's remark. He pictured Stransky in a last stand In a redoubt, and every soldier was ae precious to him as a piece of gold tc a miser. "One ought to be enough to kill m« If you're going to do It to slow music," •aid Stransky. "You might as well kill me as the poor fools that yout poor fools are trying to—" Another breath finished the speech; a breath released from a ball tha* seemed to have come straight from hell. The fire control officer of a regi ment of Gray artillery on the plain, paanning the landscape for the origin of the rifle-flre which was leaving many fallen in the wake of the charge of the Gray Infantry, had seen a figure on the knoll. "How kind! Thank you!" his thought spoke faster than words. No need of range-finding! The range to every possible battery or Infantry position around La Tlr was already marked on his map. He passed the word to his guns. [To Be Continued] ELECTED INSTRUCTOR Special to The Telegraph Annvllle, Pa. .Sept. 16.—Faber E.
