Helen wished, after she had started, ,
that she had waited until It was cooler |
to go to see Frances. The streets I
seemed sizzling. She was horribly un- |
comfortable, although she had only a
block to walk to the subway and she
had on her coolest white dress. By the
time she had reached the subway she
felt like turning back. Who feels like
making a call when the thermometer
Is over ninety and the city is like a
furnace? Helen wished that Warren
would decide to move out Into the
suburbs.
A wave of heat from the subway
struck her as she went down and made j
her feel faint. Crowds were Just get
ting off Use train and she hurried to
get her ticket and catch the downtown
express. Even tlv all" from the fans
was heated. She wondered if she coulu
6tand this heat again later when the
crowds were going from business, and i
then she fought to keep back the
nauseated feeling that was slowly
overpowering her. The stations drop
ped away slowly and Helen got up to
go at last.
Frances had rooms In Washington
Square, a regular studio in one of the
old houses there. Helen had always
been curious concerning the regular
Bohemian atmosphere and at Frances'
invitation had acepted a suggestion for i
that afternoon for tea.
She was exhausted when she reached
the house at last, and the long climb j i
to the top story was the last straw, i
She knocked faintly and the door was
opened by Frances herself. She wore
a delectable loose affair of srreen chir- ■ i
fon with her red hair caught up high .
on her head, and the rooin cool and • <
darkened. Helen smiled as Frances put
out a hand to pull her into the room. .
"I thought I d never get here." aid
Helen. "It' the most impossible day." ' i
"I know it, dear, you must be about :
dead. I hardly thought you'd come.
Really, I haven't the energy to move i
In heat like this."
Helen was by this time ensconced in
a big chair, and her hat and veil had
been removed. An electric fan was set
going close to her. Some powder had
been produced from an old-fashloneo
urn and a big. cool chamois. Frances
was seated in a low chair opposite he*,
her slim, white fingers busy with some
tall, thin glasses. The Ice clinked in
vitingly. and Helen closed her eves,
conscious that she was getting cool. j
Frances smiled as she opened them ;
a moment later. "I'm not going to say
a thing.' she said, "until you are com
fortable. So go right on resting while!
1 prepare something for you to drink." j
Helen looked around her curiously, i
Evidently Frances had a tiny bedroom
adjoining, but the big studio was used ' i

. for everything else. There was a huge
I window across the top and a brown silk
I ruffled shade had been drawn across,
| shutting out the sun. There were two
other windows, each open but with the
shades drawn down.
A hußs mahogany desk, strewn with
manuscripts, was drawn between the
widows under the great skylight, and
Helen imagined that when the room
was flooded with light the effect was
■ harming. Several rugs were thrown
over the polished boards, and a lounge
piled with bronze silk cushions, was
drawn invitingly near a little table on
which reposed a reading lamp.
The other furnishings were simple
and consisted of the tea table, several
chairs and a sectional bookcase. Helen
thought the effect was ideal and the
room perfect, although there was noth
ing expensive in the entire furnish
ings.
I<"rances brought a tiny tray to her
side at that moment.
"I see you have been looking around,"
she said in her low voice. "What do
you think of my place?"
"I think it is charming," said Helen
enthusiastically, lifting the long class
to her lips and sipping the contents
eagerly. "My dear, what is this drink?
It is simply delicious."
"Just a little concoction of my own.
Cooling, isn't It?"
"But what's in it?"
"Why. the foundation is fruit shrub,
and there is just a dash of bitters and
some vermouth."
Helen thought it the most cooling
thing she had ever tasted, and she
nibbler at the thin sandwiches and
cuddled up in the big chair content
edly.
She and Frances talked over old
days and the time slipped away rap
idly. When she looked at the clock
again it was Just twenty minutes of six
and she Jumped up quickly.
"I don't know how to tell you what
a nice afternoon I've had,' she said,
pinninK on her hat. "You must come
up and have dinner with us sometime
soon, and I want Mr. Curtis to see
your quarters, perhaps you'll Invite
him some time."
"Why, I did give him a genera: in
vitation, but we'll make it specific and
I'll have you down on Sunday some
time to a regular studio dinner.
Helen laughed and hurried over to
the subway unconscious of the heat
and the crowds that had bothered hei
so, until she was nearly home. What
an attractive woman Frances was.
Just the kind of a woman to attract
a man. It was just as well, perhaps,
that Warren had not been impressed.

8682 Two or Three-Piece Tucked
Skirt, 24 to 32 waist.
Here is a skirt that is available int
many materials and adapted both to
afternoon and to evening gowns. It it
made with a wide hem and three tucks and
that finish means weighting thin materials
at the lower edge to provide
perfect folds and becoming lines. It can
be cut in two or in three pieces as the
material is wider or narrower, but it will
always be graceful and attractive. Since
the finish can be made at either the raised
or the natural waist line, it can be adapted
to all figures. In the picture, it is made
of the light weight taffeta that is such a
favorite of the season and beneath the
hem are sewed accasional weights which
serve to hold the fullness properly in
place. The model is a pretty one for
various materials however, for the thin
ner nets, voiles, crapes, and the like and
also for the many lovely cotton materials
of the summer. If transparent material
Is used, ribbon can be inserted in the
tucks to afford an attractive trimming
and a pretty color effect.

SON BEGINS TO PLOT
! FOR FATHER'S THRONE
1
Takes Advantage of His Feeble
ness and Starts Scheming;
Plans Frustrated
SOLOMON GOES TO RESCUE
The International Sunday School
Lesson For july 1 1 Is "Solo
mon Anointed King"
I
(By William T. Ellis)
Here comes the son, to stand on
j the father's shoulders, holding the
I old torch higher. Does uot the real
j test of a father come In rearing sons
| who are greater than himself? Solo
mon outshone David, by David's help.
' That line of reasoning must not
]be insisted upon too strongly for
' there was Absalom and Adonijah.
• Real life has a way of confounding
i our simple rules. Still, we know
that one reason why these two sons
!of David failed so tragically (aside
i from any part their mothers may
have had to do with the case) was
; that their father let them have their
j own way. They were "spoiled," as
our significant colloquialism has it.
i Undisciplined, they grew wilful and
j vain and selfish beyond reason. These
! good-looking, egotistical fops stand,
; like Lot's wife, as pillars of remem
i l>rance. to warn others against their
| fate. There never was a selfish, un
restrained and indulged boy who did
not reap bitterness in his own spirit.
Action and excitement abound in
our lesson story. Old King David
was in his dotage. His oldest son,
! Adonijah, began to plot for the
throne, although everybody knew
that David had promised It to Bath
' sheba. How the friends of Solomon
circumvented the scheme of Adoni
jah by another plot, completes the
story.
The Plotting of I*rlnces
Taking advantage of the seclusion
of King David, in his growing feeble
ness, and indifference to public af
fairs, Adonijah hegan to put himself
more prominently in the public eye.
He rode forth in state, with royal
trappings and outrunners. Un
warned by the example of his brother,
Absalom, he tried to steal the hearts
of the people. Like many another
politician since, he mistook the flat
teries of the self-seekers nearest him
as the voice of the people. That wily
| warrior, old Joab, and shrewd Abla
thar, the priest, used the young man
as their tool: for they had evidently
entertained the, amHtion to be king
makers. There was nothing in Adon-
selfish life to teach him to see
through the designs of these traitors
to the king.
Coached by these courtiers, the
plotting prince planned a great feast
a short distance below the city. All
the princes were invited except Solo
mon, and most of the leading men
of the nation. Zadok, the priest;
Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah,
the captain of the host, and others
of David's famous heroes were not
bidden because their loyalty to the
king was known to be unshakable.
At this great feast It was planned
that the cry should arise, "Long live
king Adonijah." The whole affair
was to be given the appearance of a
spontaneous outburst of popular
opinion, and on this wave Adonijah
was to ride to the throne. Every
thing went according to schedule,
except that prompt action hv Solo
mon's party was not looked for .
The Prophet Who Was a Minute Man
Often the criticism is made that
good men are not "practical": and
that preachers cannot put through
their own program of reform. Here
' was Nathan, the fearless prophet, who
j had rebuked King David for his sin;
surely he was merely a fearless, un
: safe dealer in abstract righteousness.
Not a bit of it. When it came to real
I efficiency he proved himself superior
. to Joab and Abiathar and all the rest
5 of the gang of court politicians.
His program was simple. First he
told the person most interested, Bath
sheba. the mother of Solomon, of the
plot to deprive her son of his prom
ised throne. Then, with her wit added
to his they arranged that both of
them should go in to the king in suc
cession. and stir him to a recollection
of his promise. They trusted the
aroused spirit of David to do the rest.
And it did. Once awakened to a
knowledge of the plot, the king gave
swift orders for the immediate coro
nation of Solomon, on that very day.
The thing was done king fashion.
"And King David said, Call me Za
dok the priest, and Nathan the
prophet, and Benaiah the son of Je
holada. And they came before the
king.
"The king also said unto them,
Take with you the servants of your
lord, and cause Solomon my son to
ride upon mine own mule, and bring
him down to Gihon:
"And let Zadok the priest and
X-than the prophet anoint him there
king over Israel; and blow ye with
the trumpet, and say, God save King
Solomon.
"Then ye shall come up after him,
that he may come and sit upon my
throne; for he shall be king in my
stead: and I have appointed him to
be ruler over Israel and over Judah.
"And Zado)t the priest took an
horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and
anointed Solomon. And they blew
the trumpet; and all the people said,
God save King Solomon.
"And all the people came up after
him, and the people piped with pipes,
and rejoiced with great joy, so that
the earth rent with the sound of
them."
That noise reached the conspira
tors at their feast, and drove the
icicle of terror into their hearts.
The true quality of these selfish poli
ticians was revealed for'"Then all the
guests of Adonijah were seized with
rose up and each went his
way." An hour ago the prince seemed
the most popular man in the kingdom:
now he is forsaken by all. and forced
to seek sanctuary at the horns of the
altar where he won the pardon of
his brother.
"Crown Solomon"
Dr. Wayland Hoyt used to preach,
especially to young men, a great ser
mon based on this story. His theme
was In Dr. Chalmer's great phrase,
"The expulsive power .of a now af
fection." Defeat all enemies and
temptations as David defeated Adon
ijah. by crowning Solomon. Never
mind about taking up a quarrel and
a c mbat; simply "Crown Solomon."
Positive actions win; negations never
succeed. Spend no time in disprov
ing the right of the Adonijahs of
temptation in your life; simply crown
the rightful king of your affection and
service. Darkness cannot tie swept out
of a room with a broom; let in the
light, and the darkness will disap
pear.
Our own day needs to take to
heart this experience. We are deeply
concerned about many things that are
imperfect or wholly wrong in our
civilization. This ia noble. But
there has arisen a class of "reform
ers" who are mere critics; they are
devoting themselves to nagging tit
what is wrong. Our timea will never
riri.

be mended thus. What we need are
prophets with magnificent afirma
tions, and who can put positive con
victions into the heart of society to
heal its hurts. Instead of talking
about the political ills of our time, let
us create a cult of patriotism, that
will sweep righteous ideals irfto power
everywhere. Rather than nag at
wickedness, let us grow enthusiastic
over the goodness that is and may be.
To sum it all up. let Us enthrone
Christ In His rightful seat, and all
usurpers will flee. "Crown Solomon"
and let the Adonijahs and their evil
fall of their own weight. Make Christ
king over life, and the power of the
pretenders will be broken.
