10F INTEREST TO THE WOMEN "THEIR MARRIED LIFE" 1 Cop.rrlicbt by International Newt Service Copyright, 1916, International News Service. Helen always remembered the week that followed as one of absolute mls i ry. She ached in every bone and if <lie raised her head from the pillow a dizziness overwhelmed her. She was forced to lie inactive, and reading made her head ache, so that every day w hen she did not improve she grew more irritable. Afterward she laughed at the differ- F-nt things Warren told her about. Warren was remarkably considerate luring the time, and when Helen was liot and feverish and cross, he tried liis best to amuse her with funny tales Bf office experiences. "That attractive Miss Redding call ed up to-day," he said suddenly. "Really," said Helen a flash of inter i'st on her weary face. "Yes, she wanted to know il she night come and see you and hardly ikrd to ring up the house for fear ot bothering you if you were very ill." "She is a dear," said llelen Impul jlvely. "Do you think it would l>e iafe to have her, Warren? 1 get so ired of seeing no one, and I miss not laving Winifred around more than inything." Warren Gives Message They had thought it safest to send' IVinifred out to Carrie's. Not that her llness was exactly contagious, as Dr. Marshall put it, but children were sus ceptible, and there was no need of aking chances. Louise had run in to lee Helen once or twice, l>ut otherwise icr friends had kept away, and had lent flowers and messages instead. "Will you be good if 1 tell you somc hing?" said Warren laughingly. "till, yes, dear; 1 promise." "Well, I told Miss Redding that she ind Jack Parmelec might drop in his evening for a few minutes if they ivanted to." "Did you really, dear? Well, send llary In to me. I want this room iilied. Take those medicine bottles, iway and straighten this table." "I'll send Mary in," said Warren, totting up. and I'll go out and eat , something. Is dinner ready?" "Of course, it is; I forgot that you tadn't eaten. Go right out, dc.ir, ind tell Mary to come here when sue sn't busy." "Where will you have the flowers hat just came, ma'am ?" said good, latured Mary,' genuinely glad that lelen was actually taking interest; u something. "Moro flowers? I didn't know it.| 'ring the box in here and let me open i Mary obediently brought the box :nd Helen cut the strings and lifted >ni a brace of orchids. She gasped a ittle and caught at the tiny white en velope that protruded from the cen er. Who could be sending her flowers ike that?

Aren't they beautiful?" And ! then as Mary left she slipped the card out of the envelope haatUy. | "There were Just a few words in pencil. "These say more than I dare j to. Helen. Ned." Bo Ned was still In :the land of the living, and he must have heard that she was ill. Helen wondered what he was doing' In New York. She had thought that he must have returned to Cleveland, for since the night they had had the scene she j had not heard from him. Well, she reflected, it was gratify- I ing to think that he cared for her that way, and then the thought occurred to her, what would Warren say? Would he believe that she had neither hoard from Ned nor spoken to him i since that night, in the face of a box lof orchids that must have cost a small fortune? She Goes to Sleep She lay thinking of the matter dreamily. She hadn't felt so comfort able in ages, the aches and pains had ! almost left her. She felt drowsy and | was not even conscious of the fact that Mary had tiptoed back and placed j the flowers on the little table by her side. Then she was called suddenly to earth by Warren's voice, and sl>e start ed up. "Were you asleep, dear? I'm sor ry." penitently. "You look pretty stunning. I can tell you. Guess you feel better to-night." ' "1 do," she admitted, smiling a lit tle. "Where did the flowers come from ?" Helen hesitated for the fraction of. an instant and then decided to tell the 1 truth. "From Ned Burns," she admitted. "From Ned Burns," repeated War ren. "I thought he had gone West." i "I really thought so, too: in fact I have never seen him since that night j the Thurstons were here." "And he sends you flowers like 1 this?" "Yes, dear, and I am just as sur-1 prised as you are." "Was there a card?" Helen flushed uncomfortably, and hesitated. The card was a thing she, couldn't show to Warren, and yet; what would he think if she refused? I Just, then the doorbell rans: and I she sank back on the pillow with a sigh of relief. "That must be Miss Redding and 1 Jack," she said. excitedly. "Bring! them in here, dear, and get some j chairs, will you?"

Simon Dake in his original request to I the Patent Office has been allowed without, change has been patented by j | the noted submarine designer. This 1 • fact in itself, most unusual, is no less I unusual than the boat itself, which is i 1 a submarine with two hulls—outside j and inslde—no armament and capable , 1 of carrying grains, foodstuffs or other material beneath a fleet into a block aded port. has so arranged a series of 1 ! tanks and ballast compartments that i water ballast may be admitted into the ! very interior of the vessel's compart , ments and around the cargo itself without injury to the contents or dan- j j ger to the crew. The prompt granting of this patent' | without change of the original appli- j ! cation papers has given rise in sub- I , marine circles to the belief that the 1 I government may plan the building of j ; such undersea carriers.

J SENATE PASSES PHILIPPINES BILL | Clarke Amendment For Inde pendence in 1921 Retained in Measure Special to the Telegraph Washington. Feb. s.—Retaining thej drastic Clarke amendment providing | for (he independence of the islands 'not later than March 4, 1921, the Sen-| I ate passed the Philippine bill by a; | vote of 52 to 24. All the Democrats i present and six Republicans of pro gressive tendencies votdd for the bill. In the House prompt action on the bill which is said to meet with Presi dent Wilson's approval will be urged. Administration leaders apparently are confident that it will have the ap proval of the House Democratic ma jority. To-da.v Is Anniversary The political speech of the day was made by Mr. Smith, of Michigan, a conservative Republican, who is a fav- ; orite son for the Republican presi dential nomination. "Almost ever since the Treaty of Paris was signed," he said to the Dem- j ocrats across the aisle, "you have' I been bombarding the American posi tion in the Philippines. It is fitting i that this bill should be brought here jby the Senator from Nebraska (Mr. ! Hitchcock), because from the begln ' ning the cradle of discontent on the islands has been rocked by a Nebraskan ; (William Jennings Bryan). At three | national conventions he has tried to i overthrow the policies of the beloved i McKlnle.v." To-day is the 17th anniversary of!

Haskin [Continued from Editorial Page.] I of whom received more than 372 first I ballots. The more candidates run | ning the less is the chance, and un- [ j dor this system there may be any num ber of candidates. This difficulty is overcome in two | ways. Suppose that one or more can- | didates receive more than 372 votes, I lor whatever the quota may be. All the surplus votes of each candidate—j those which he does not need to elect him—are not "wasted" so to speak.! as under the old system. They are credited as first choices to the man j who is marked for second choice on ; leach surplus ballot. These extra votes j j will probably elect one or more other | { candidates. If passing on the surplus ! t results in a second surplus, this in j iturn is passed on to Choice Number! : Three. But even this distribution of surplus I first places may not suffice to fill all the offices. In such case, the man who ■ has the fewest number of first choice;; opposite his name Is dropped from the I ! list, and ills firsts are given to tbo j men marked for second place on.each i ballot so treated. If this does not j suffice, the next lowest candidate is i i dropped, and all the firsts he got j from the voters or acquired amid the ! intricacies Of the counting system are i passed around according to the plan: MEAT CAUSE OF LAME BACK AND KIDNEY TROUBLE i ' Take a glass of Salts to flush Kid neys if your back is aching. Noted authority says Uric Acid from meat irritates the Bladder. Meat forms uric acid, which excites | 'ond overworks the kidneys In their i efforts to filter it from the system. ; i Regular eaters of meat must flush the I , kidneys occasionally.

In the Ashtabula election only one ! man received more than the quota on the original ballot. It was neces sary to drop the seven lowest names 'and distribute their "firsts" before the i seven offices were filled. The expert (counters finally reduce the situation to a number of men corresponding to the numher of offices to be filled, each man having approximately the same number of votes, and that number be ing the quota determined upon in the beginning. While proportional representation is brand new in the United States, Ashtabula is not the first city to put trimmings on its election laws.

It was fol lowed by Cadillac and Manistee, Mich., where preferential voting was adopt ed when commission government was established. Undet; this system, how ever, the second and third choices are added to the first choices until some body has a clear majority.

There are several other advantages to the Ashtabula method. It gives more stability to tenure of office. A 10 per cent, change in public opinion will make only that much change in the personnel of the commission, while under majority rule a 10 per cent.fluctuation in the vote may work a political revolution, throwing one party out of power and bringing in another with radically different poli cies. Again, a citizen need not waste his vote to express his convictions. A prohibitionist in a town where prohi bition stands a slim chance, may Buy GOOD Coal & LESS Coal The better the coal you buy—the less you have to buy—and the less you have to buy, the lower becomes your aggregate coal expendi ture. Since all coal—good, better and fcest—coats the same per ton, dont you think It the part of wisdom to get the best for your money, and keep the total expenditure down? Buy Montgomery Coal—lts quality has been bmra for ywara— there la none better. J. B. MONTGOMERY Both Phones Third and Chestnut Streets make his first choice for a prohibition ist, and still vote for some one else with a better chance of election. No political organizations, caucuses, or other means are necessary to hold the vote together, and prevent it from being wasted on too many different candidates. The alternative choices take care of that. Best of all, the method tends to secure the co-opera tion and support of all classes and in terests, because all of them are repre sented upon the commission. It looks as though Ashtabula had really added the finished touch to commission gov ernment. Every American who is alive to the significance of the munici pal reform movement will watch the Ashtabula experiment with interest. 7
