"Oh, Warren, I don't know what
to do about It. Why, the thlngr Is
ruined, and I had planned to wear It
over to the Stevens' to-morrow night,
fend Helen, with a little cry of despair,
Mhrew the dress down on a chair and
Vegan to wring her hands nervously.
"Now, don't begin any of those
lierolca," said Warren unfeelingly.
••Get down to business and tell me
Qiow It happened—there must be
■ome way tp fit it."
"There Isn't, dear. The dress is
gully an Inch too short, and the waist
iooks as if it had been made over out
»of an old piece of material, she has
naggled it so."
"Can't she do anything about It?
fc can refuse to pay the bill, and" —
"But don't you see, dear, I paid so
Btuoh for the material, and X had
wanted this dress to be so pretty, and
Ittow, no matter what she does, I'll be
vure to hate it."
"That's a fine way to talk; any
body would think you had money to
turn."
"It isn't that dear, but I really
•don't see what can be done. Anyway
there would be no possible chance of
(Biy wearing it to-morrow night and
3 haven't a thing to wear. It serves
me right for. trying an inexperienced
dressmaker."
"What possessed you to do such a
Ithtng I thought you liked to buy
y'our clothes ready made."
"I do. Warren, but I saw a dress
Mown town like this one and I felt
that we couldn't afford It, and then
Mrs. Dalton knew about this dress
maker and asked me to try her, and I
thought I could have the dress and
toot pay so much money for It."
"Well, you'll have to see the woman
about It In the morning, she'll be
eble to fix it up some way, and for
Heaven's sake go down town and buy
a dress for to-morrow night if you
.haven't anything to wear."
Warren Anxious to Have Her Get a
New Dress
"Really, Warren? But, dear, I don't
feel as if I ought to do that. It seems
BO wickedly extravagant, and I sup
pose this dress could be fixed up
"With very little trouble. Perhaps I
could wear a shirtwaist to-morrow
flight with my suit skirt. It seems
Coollsh to get another dress."
"That's right; wear a shirtwaist and
then worry the whole evening because
you're the only woman who hasn't a
decent dress to wear."
Helen was silent for a moment. She
<elt Instinctively that Warren hated
theee hysterical outbursts of hers and
would be willing to go to any expense
to have her satisfied. The temptation
to buy a new dress was a great one,
■but the fact that she would really do
without it and that Warren was so
#renerous made her feel ashamed.
She picked up the despised dress
from the chair and looked at it criti
cally and at that moment the door bell
rang and Nora came In to tell her
there was a strange woman out In
<he hall who wanted to speak to her
•i monient.
"Better go out and see her," said
JWarren sarcastically; "might take
your mind off that dress." And Helen
turned and left the room without a
"Why, Miss Brown," she said sur
prlsedly, as a little woman hardly
more than a girl rose from the chair
bv the door and looked at her Implor
ingly.
"Mrs. Cnrtis, I hated to come to you
like this, but you seemed kind and I
®m in such trouble."
In spite of her annoyance concern
ing the dress Helen was very kind
hearted and she choked back any re
marks slie might have made at that
moment when she saw the very evi
dent distress of the girl.
"What can I do for you?" she said
kindly.
"I wondered If you would be will
ing to pay me for that dress immedi
ately. I am In need of money and I i
haven't had very much work lately." j
The little woman looked up at Helen
Imploringly. "I know this is a very
dreadful thing to do, Mrs. Curtis, but
If I don't have the money for the rent
by morning I shall be put out."
Helen looked with horror at the
poor little woman before her. Were
such dreadful things really possible
She had read about them In books,
but she had never imagined that she
would actually know a person who
was In such awful need.

Wilkes-Barre Stove and Pea

No one kind of coal will give good results under
every cil;idition.
Wilkes-Barre Stove is usually recommended for
Steam Heat and Hot Water Furnaces.
Under ordinary circumstances this is a very good
coal and if we know nothing about the heating plant
we always say "Use Wilkes-Barre Stove Coal.
But there are houses where the Stove size is too
large. It takes too long in the morning for the fire
to come up and you must have a strong draft all
day if you want heat.
For such a residence our Wilkes-Barre Stove and
Pea mixed in equal amounts will give much better
results. Ihe small Pea size catches up quickly and
the dampers need not be opened wide to have good
regular heat.

the dress, you poor little thing. Why
didn't you tell me you were In need?
I could have let you have something
before."
"Oh, I am ashamed to think of It,
Mrs. Curtis. You see. Mrs. Stevens
has been very kind to me and I have
a few customers now, but until I got
under way I have little even for food,
and X had worked over your dress to
get It finished so as to have the money
for that. I never thought I would
have to come and beg for it, though."
"Come into the dining room and
wait," said Helen Impulsively. "We
have Just finished dinner, and I want
you to have a piece of Nora's choco
late cake and a cup of coffee while
you are waiting. I'll get the money
for you in a moment."
Miss Brown followed Helen into the
dining room without a word. Helen
had divided the fact that she was
hungry and had taken the most deli
cate way she knew of, to avoid hurt
ing the woman's feelings. Not until
Nora had set the tempting 3unoh
before her and the woman had
begun to eat did Helen leave the
piece of cake and a small plate of
sandwiches that Nora had made up
hurriedly.
Then with a murmured apology she
left and hurried Into the room, her
eyes filled with tears.
Dear, what do you think has hap
pened? The dressmaker is here for
the money for my dress."
"Rather funny way of doing busi
ness," said Warren brusquely; "she
just sent the dress home this after
noon, didn't she? And the whole
thing Is wrong; did you tell her about
it?"
"Oh, Warren, don't speak so loud;
she might hear you. I left her in
the dining room eating some cake.
Do you know, dear, she is hungry,
and she came for the money because
the landlord was going to put her out
to-morrow If she didn't have the rent
ready." Helen's cheeks were red with
excitement; she had forgotten about
the dress In her pity for the dress
maker.
"Well, what do you want me to do
about it?"
"I want you to give me the money,
dear; I'd rather pay her and do with
out a new dress. Just as If I could
enjoy wearing it if I knew how much
a few dollars might mean to Miss
Brown."
Warren looked at her curiously and
she met his eyes, her own wet with
tears; then she held out her hand
and Warren counted out the bills.
She wanted to throw her arms about
his neck and thank him, but she
knew how Warren hated to be maul
ed and so refrained from doing It.
Back in the dining room Miss
Brown waß just finishing her second
piece of cake.
Helen smiled at her gayly. "How
are you coming on? All right? Nora
makes the best cake I have ever
eaten: I couldn't help making you
taste it and hearing you tell me how
good it was. See how selfish I am."
Miss Brown looked up at Helen,
her eyes full of understanding. "I can
never thank you enough, Mrs. Curtis,"
she said, gravely.
"Then don't try. Here's your money,
and thank you for finishing the dress
so promptly."
"It was all right?" anxiously.
"Just fine," said Helen, heroically.
"I want you to make a couple of
dresses for my little girl some time
soon. You haven't seen the last of
me you see."
The look in Miss Brown's eyes more
than repaid Helen for what she had
done, and she went back Into the liv
ing room entirely contented.
"How about the dress?" said War
ren, throwing down his paper. "Go
ing to wear It after all?"
"I guess I can fix It up somehow. I
couldn't let her know how disappoint
ed I was after the way she worked to
finish it."
Warren arose to get a cigar and as
he passed Helen's chair he touched
her hair for a moment in one of his
rare moments of tenderness.
"Get someone else to fix the dress
up," he said, his voice not quite steady.
"and meet me downtown to-morrow
afternoon. You need more than one
dress, anyway. By George! It Isn't
everyone who would have done what
you have to-night. I'm proud of you."

The dogs of war are loosened in all
Europe! A new map of a continent

fresh troops and regiments Into the
cataclysmic fray.
The Inevitable has come. The bur
den of preparation has staggered Eu

pool new dynasties—new methods—
new purposes.

events like a cancerous growth
