may continue to draw Interest dur
ing that period of time. Meantime
I am obliged to keep continually in
debt, and when their money is re
ceived It goes to pay for what one
generally terms 'dead horses."
"The few people of modest means
■who employ me are far more
thoughtful and considerate."
There seems to be something in
the possession of great wealth which
creates a hardening of the heart and
a blinding of the spiritual vision to
ward others less fortunately situat
ed.
A French teacher, popular among
the ultrafashionable circles of New !
York city, a few years ago was j
obliged to give up his rooms because ]
his patrons went to Europe for the
summer owing htm money. He had ,
relied upon It to pay his rent in ad- |
vance. Innumerable could be |
cited. It is not the exceptional situa- I
tion; the exceptional case Is that of I
the wealthy man or woman who
pays a debt.
The condition excites animosity
In the minds of the worlds toilers
and does much to increase unrest.
It would be an excellent idea if all
teachers, merchants and tradesmen
could combine in a union and respect
fully demand better treatment and
mote prompt payments in their deal
ings with the rich.

daintier and nothing more simple. Lawn

crapes, cr£pe de chine and the slightly
Warmer albatross and challis, all would
make charming garments of the sort.
In the late summer, mornings and even
ings are apt to be cool and albatross is
likely to De needed, while it provides

Drug Fiends Number Less
Than 200,000 in U. S.
Special to The Telegraph
"Washington, Aug. 7.—lt is estimated [
I by Martin I. Wilbert, technical expert 1
[in the Government hygienic labora
tory, that the number of drug fiends
In the United States amounts to less
than 200,000. This conclusion results
from reports from hospitals and by a
comparison with drug Importations.
It had been predicted that the re-1
suit of the enforcement of the law 1
would be a besieging of hospitals by I
drug addicts, and a wave of crime of 1
national scope, accompanied by a trail
of suicide and death," Mr. Wilbert!
says, "While the effect of the enforce- i
ment of the Federal antinarcottc law j
has been clearly evidenced by such .re- j
ports the results have been by no!
means so far-reaching or so startling
as had been expected."
Practically all of the opium and so
caine used in this country, he asserts, I
|is imported through legitimate chan
! nels, and because of the comparatively I
j high import tax considerable care is
| exercised to insure the recording of
j the product.
, "Converting the recorded quantities'
|of the several drugs imported into 1
average doses, as presented in the j
Pharmacopeia df the United States, we |
find that for some years the total 1
amount of these drugs imported has I
been fairly uniform and will average!
approximately 2,500,000,000 doses of
opium, its derivatives and alkaloids, j
and 325,000,000 doses of coca leaves'
and cocaine," Mr. Wilbert says.

"You still have the 1.0. U. eh© gave
you 7" he asked.
She showed It to him.
"Tou must go to her," ho said,
"and demand payment."
"But this Is Sunday, Horace. And,
besides, she has no money."
Solicitously he leaned towards her.
Loverlike his arms stole about her as
he moved closer to her on the garden
bench.
"But this is Important, dear." (His
voice was soft and caressing.) "In
her Jewel safe she has a paper—a
confession —that I must have. Oo to
her today now demand your
money. And when she refuses, ask
for a jewel as security. Get her to
show you her Jewel case. Make her
open the safe on some pretext. Get
that paper—get it for me—and we
will go away together. Remember, we
are to be married "
And Stone, looking deep into her
"You'll Not Go Away; You'll Stay
and Pay—Pay for Your Folly."
eyes, saw the answer there. He knew
he would have the paper if she could
get it. And then he dropped his own
eyes quickly, as if he feared she might
read his deceit and trickery in them.
To know how well his plan succeed
ed, we have only to turn, one hour
later, to Isabelle's pretty boudoir.
Clay was there. And Irwin. And the
chief of police. They had asked him
to oome that he might see the con
fession, and act quickly without wait
ing for the court's action on Monday.
They feared that Stone would leave
town. Time was precious.
The door of the secret safe In the
wall was wide open. The cover of
the Jewel case was up. The paper
was gone.
"More of your drunken folly," Ir
win shouted. "I suppose you told
Stone where 'you had hidden the pa
per last night, when he pumped you
In the den."
"Stone got nothing from me," Clay
doggedly replied. "I never talk when
I am drunk."
And only Isabelle, shrinking in the
big chair before the fireplace knew.
Only she could have told where the
paper went. Only she could have
told—and she remembered It all ao
distinctly now—how Mrs. Blake had
moved suddenly toward the safe, as
•he had carrier the Jewel case to the
table by the window. Only she could
have told of that faint momentary
rustle of paper she had heard in the
brief instant that her back was
turned.
"A paper gone," she muttered to
herself in anguish. "Then Mrs. Blake
Is the thief, and if I tell, she'll expose
me."
Though Isabelle well knew that for
her to hold her tongne meant poverty
and hardship all her life; though she
knew that It meant the entire loss of
happiness for hersjelf and her hus
band, who could not exist without the
luxury to which they had been accun
tomed, though she knew that her aa
tlon was dragging down her father
Into poverty and business failure with
her husband, she could not drive h*r
errant tongue to speak the few simple
"words that would have cleared all.
Insistently, persistently, she main
tained that she did not know where
the paper had gone; that she had
never seen it; that nobody had been In
the room with her.
And so the craven fear that held
her tongu-e made silence her lategt
and greatest folly, while ruin, gaunt
and horrible, stalked through all
theii- lives. ALL WERE PAYING
a horrible Price for her folly and
their own.
• • •
And Mrs. Blake! What of her?
Mission accomplished and paper safe
ly in her possession, she became sud
denly possessed of a desire to te'l
Ktone of her success. Hers had been
the dangerous work. Hers was to be
the reward. She would claim it now.
Almost girlish were her actions a»
she tiptoed up to the door of Stone's
flat, and finding it ajar, softly entered.
Guided by voices that came from the
library she made her way Into the
house. Womanlike she paused to
listen.
"And tomorrow you and I will go
away together."
The voice was Stone's. There was
no mistaking it. Something seemed
to go dead within her. Craftily she
peered around the edge of the por
tiere, and weak, stunned, angry, she
staggered back. Her bubble had
burst. Stone was planning to go
away with one of his chorus friends.
She had been the catspaw —the dupe.
Quickly she left, as quietly as she
had come, and going to her own apart
ment she telephoned Stone to come
to her, and handing him an envelope
filled with blank paper, she said,
"Here Is the confession."
With catlike cunning she watched
his eagerness as he seized the en
velope, watched the sudden wonder
on his face that turned to anger as
he found that he had been duped.
"What does this mean?" he de
manded hotly.
"Listen and you shall hear," she
replied calmly and told him all that
she. had st en and heard in his
"As for th« confession, I secured It and
shall keep It," she concluded.
He sprang at her, his fingers ex
tended as If to throttle her, only to
start back from the gleaming silver
revolver that she pointed at him.
"No, I'K not give you the confes
sion," she sighed, wavering for an In
stant, "you'll not take it from me
either. A.nd you'll not go away with
your chorus girl friend. No, Horace
Stone, you'll npt go away." she
shouted in angry passion, the very
violence of her emotions bringing
back her strength, "you'll stay, and I
will hold this confession over your
head to brand you as a thief when
ever I see fit. YOU'LL NOT GO
AWAY, I SAY. YOU'LL STAY. Yes.
and You'll pay—pay dearly for your
folly."

Big Auto Trucks Carries Employes

Park
With pennants flying and horns
blowing, eighty employes of The Globe
and members of their families rode in
elaborately decorated trucks to
Hershey Park yesterday for the first
annual picnic of the big store, the
guests of Ben Strouse.
When the party arrived at Hershey
Park it found ample evidence that the
commissary department had been qn
the job. A big table that reached the
entire length of one of the pavilions
was fairly groaning with good things
to eat, and it didn't take anybody very
long to decide just what to do.
As soon as everyone had eaten all
they could the Globe Right Posture

town Juniors and in a well-played
game, won by the score of 9-3.
Then the Globe orchestra tuned up
and filled the vacant spaces between
the sports events while the young
gladiators were resting with music.
Charles Fry won the 100-yard dash
for boys under 18 years of age. The
dash for single men was won by Cnas.
Cohen and Roy Robinson took honors
in the married men's class. Wllmer
King came off victorious in the sack
race after a strenuous fifteen minutes'
struggle.
In the peanut race for ladies ex
clusively, Mrs. Benjamin Strouse won
honors. Miss Sarah Heiser came out
