The curtain fell on the last act and Warren leaned over to help Helen on with her coat. The play was obviously u try-out. and the kind that neither .if them liked. Warren was in a bad humor and even Helen had reached a point where she was not quite herself. As they went up the aisle, Helen said fretfully. "Have you ever seen anything quit© so bad. Warren? I don't see how we managed to sit through it." "No wonder they try out in towns like this one." growled A\ ar ren. "This i>lay would not last an hour on Broadway." They had reached the lobby and Warren was for hailing a street car, l*it Helen protested. "Let's walk, dear, I have a frightful headache and it can't be far to the hotel." They strolled through the deserted streets leisurely. The fresh air acted us a tonic and Warren lost his grouch. Helen smiled to herself as he re marked on the beauty of the night. "You see, dear, you needed the walk as well as I. Now you feel more like yourslf, don't you?" "I feel all right, only I'm kicking myself all over for paying two fifty for those seats." "Did you. Warren? That's a shame, hut, anyway, it was fun to go to n. try-out." 1 have never been to the theater on an opening night, so I en joved that part of it. anyway." Thev reached the hotel, and as they went into the lobby. Warren asked if she weren't hungry. "How would a nice little bite of salad taste, eh?" Warren could al ways be put into a good humor if eating were involved, but Helen wasn't hungry, and, with the heat of the hotel, her headache had returned. "I couldn't eat a thing, dear, really, but you go ahead and order what you like." Warren Invites Helen to Have a Little Lunch. "Nonsense, I'm not going to eat all alone; you come along with me and you'll have an appetite before you know it." Helen would have preferred going! to her room, and was surprised that Wanvn insisted upon her going into the dining room. Ever since last Summer at the shore when she bad fainted in the water, lie had never insisted upon lier doing anything when she had one of her peculiar head-, aches. True, she had never had so' had a one as she. had had that day , l«ut then she had never done anything lo aggravate even the slightest pain,! for fear of another bad spell. They had been settled at a little I table along the wall, and Helen looked Around again at the decorations. She I had thought the room a little garish to j he beautiful, and yet it was effective. . "I like the cosy tablo lights," don't j you. Warren." she remarked again.: as she slipped out of her coat: "these j arrangements may he very new. but| 3 must say I like the other much I better." I "I don't know," remarked Warren non-committally. Manlike the decora-: tions made very little difference to, him; it was the food that counted. "Now what are we going to have? j JTaven't you scared up some kind of i an appetite? Come on, now, bo aj sport." "But really. Warren," Helen began. • <it I*l risen' 3 frown of disapproval. After an ,slio wasn't an obliging companion, and she real ised that Warren liked her to do what ho did. All men like their wives to he companionable, particularly on a trip of this kind. Why did she always have to be a kill-joy? " All right, dear, you order for me." nhe said, forcing a smile. The thought of food made her feel worse, but if she could manage to make Warren think she was enjoying it, that would be something. "All right," agreed Warren. _ "How would some crab salad taste? You al ways like that." Helen shuddered. Crab salad when *ho was feeling well was a pleasure, bur to-night the thought of the rich mayonnaise was almost more than *he could bear.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 23, 1914. I "I think I'd rather have a club i sandwich, dear, I don't feel like the I salad to-night." "All right, a club sandwich; that isn't much, though. I'm going to! have a real meal. I'm hungry. Helen smiled. "All right, you order: what you tyke. Warren, that will be all I can possibly manage. I ate an I enormous dinner, if you remember." I "So did I, but several hours have passed since then. Guess I'll have a i lobster a la Newburg and some Jull- ; 'enno potatoes.

That's good, Hav- j ing a good time? Helen forced herself to act as though ] she felt better. "Just fine dear. I'm iso glad you wanted me this time." I "Of course I wanted you. Men don't I like strange towns any better than women do, I can tell you that. This | I will make a fine ending to our little, I trip." I "Do you think I'll have time to look j around the stores Monday before we go?" Helen never liked to miss out on [the stores where possible shopping] I might be done for less money. | "Sure, we're not going till after | lunch, you can have all morning if I you like." j The things came and really looked | 'appetizing. Warren dipped into his lobster with real enjoyment and | Helen tasted her sandwich with not ; such a feeling of distaste as she had ! expected. j "Not so bad. eh? Have some cof fee?" I "No. Warren I don't want any to j night." "Come now, just a cup, you must i' have it to draw the blood away from your head." "But I won't sleep dear." "You won't sleep anyway If you have a headache, so you're more likely to if you drink the coffee than If you | don't." j Helen gave in anfl took the cup | from Warren. It was sweetened to 'suit her and she began to sip it obe diently and to her surprise felt a little better. By the time she had finished her cup and roost of her sandwich and I they were ready to go, her headache 'was almost gone, although it gave a warning throb when she rose to go ; upstairs. j Warren got the key. and they went up in the elevator. In their room [Helen began to get undressed as 'quickly as she could. If she could get I into bed before her head started to j throb she might ward off a bad night. | 'Well you are in a hurry," Warren | remarked." j "I'm afraid my headache will come : back. dear, and if it does I won't sleep jat all." Warren was silent, although Helen I was sure he was thinking how much ! she gave in to herself. She kenw she I did: she wished with all her heart 'that she was more self-reliant, more j clever and subtle about hiding her feelings. But she was just as • de pendent as any woman could be, and men get tired of a woman like that for regular diet. Warren was sitting in the one com fortable chair the room afforded smoking his bedtime cigar. Between puffs, he regarded Helen as she sat "curled up on the bod against the pll ! lows in her prettiest negligee watch ing him. She wondered what he would I ,lo if she should suddenly surprise him by thinking his thoughts out loud for him. "You'd better get into bed," he re marked finally. "How's the headache now?" "Much better, dear. I feel so much better than I did. What were you thinking about just then?" "I was thinking how selfish I was to keep you up like this when you are all tired out. You're a little brick most of the time, Helen, and don't i you think I don't appreciate it." (Another instalment of this attrac tive series will appear on this page soon.)

COPYRIGHT. 1014, BY JOHN PLEMING WILSON A signal and a whispered word from Wllkerson. nnil the door widened the aliening, and all passed through. With n whisk It closed. Around bends and comers and down Iteps, another bond and another flight of <y'rir« Then along a long corridor, Where scarcely a ray of ltght w«i visi ble. All the time the shuffling feet of j the little yellow man conld be heard la the advance. Then a door stopped the procession. I Another series of signals. Another long j wait. The door opened with a pecu- | liar rumbling sound. They entered a ijueerly arranged room. At first glance It seemed very small, but as the eye traveled around its walls Its strange thape gave one a feeling of fearsome npprehension. It was completely cyl indrical. Wllkerson at a sign from the China man laid Ruth on the floor and a Chi nese woman shuffled to her at the beck of the yellow man. Leaving her In the charge of the oriental, the others returned the way they had come. On the arrival of Dorr In San Fran cisco he was met by Everett at the ferry, and together they started the search for Ruth. First they began a round of the hotels. Failing to locate her at any of the smaller hotels, first ] Inquiring at the St. Francis, where she i was supposed to stop, they arrived at | the Manx. Weary and sore from his narrow es- j cape of the night before. Dorr was ready to retire to his room. Intending to purchase wearing apparel the next \ day. Desiring to put some of his personal effects away, he tried to open the dres ser drawers and discovered them to be locked He sent for a key, and to his j nmazement, on opening one of the drawers he discovered Ruth's papers to the mine. He made speedy inquiry at the office I and from the clerk and the detective ! learned of the getaway of Mrs. Dar- j uell and her party. Drake In the interim secured quar- i ters for the quartet, and still leaving Ruth in secure hiding, well guarded by j the watchful Wah Sing, a former smuggling partner of Wllkerson in the days of the "opium ring," they walked to the lodging house and settled them selves to await further developments. BROOK FISH. Why They Do Not Get Carried Away j Out Into Deep Water*. If you watch a school of minnows In tome stream that has a strong and j swift current you will see that they i always head upstream. The reason is plain. Only by constantly swim- j ming against the current can the brook 1 Ush remain a brook fish and not final ly be carried out to sea, as the brook empties Into a river, and the river empties into the ocean. But we can not suppose that the brook fish knows that this will happen if it weakly al lows the stream to carry it along. The joung minnow Is born with the in stinct to resist the flow of the brook. The most natural supposition would be that the instinct amounts to a ten dency to posh against the pressure of the water, but experiments have shown that it is not the sense of touch, but the sense of sight that plays the important part. The instinct of the brook fish is not to swim against j the current, but to keep near the same ; "scenery" on the banks or bottom of the stream OSLY ONE "BKOMO QUININE" | Whenever you feel a cold coming on, I think of the full name.

Smith, of this place, made a sausage forty-five feet in length last I week. The experiments that proved thla were performed some years ago by Professor E. P. I<yon. He put some little flsh Into n bottle filled with wa ter nnd corked the bottle, which he then placed In an aquarium, whoae pldes had seaweed upon them. When he moved the bottle along by the wall all the flsh crowded to the hinder end of the bottle. Of course thero was no current In the bottle. The flsh were trying to keep alongside that part of the seaweed covered wall that was op posite them before the bottle was moved. In another experiment the professor reversed the conditions. He made a wooden box with wire netting at each end. Its bottom he covered with sand and its inner sides with seaweed. Then he put the flsh Into this box and plac ed It In a stream. As long as the box was kept still the flsh beaded against the current, but as soon as the box was allowed to float away in the stream the flsh inside it swam in any direction. While the box was still the flsh, unless they made head against the stream, were carried along past their landmarks on the sides and bot tom of the box. But when the box floated along with them they carried their landmarks with them, and so they made no opposition to being swept along by the stream.—Youth's Companion. Left Handed Men Not Defective. As left handedness Is an Inherited characteristic, apparently behaving us Mendelian recessive, it Is interesting to note the belief of some investigators that It Is one of the stigmata of degen eracy, says the Journal of Heredity. Bardeieben is quoted in German peri odicals as saying: "That a few grent men. such as Leonardo da Vinci, were left handed does not neutralize the prevalent be lief in all ages that left handedness implies a substandard subject The percentage of left handed recruits is but 6.8; of school children somewhat higher. These figures are very decep tive, however, for of the left handed children who become right handed the percentage Is some 2C. This, added to the persistently left handed, raises the original percentage of left handed con siderably." After pointing out that the gibbon and orangoutang are as a rule right t handed and the gorilla and chlmpan- ( ree left handed the speaker decided | there was no evidence at all that a ( left handed person was mentally or s physically inferior.
