WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER IvVIII
| (Copyright, lfl6, Star Co.)
"One, two!"
The clock down in the lower hall
was striking two, and. Jane Reeves
had not slept. She sighed and turned
wearily upon ,her pillow. How still
everything was—and yet there were
noises that had kept her awake. Could
she -have imagined some of them. But
of course she had!
She wondered how many times
the had argued thus with herself
since getting into bed to-night.
In the first place she had heard
Ihe old clock downstairs ticking.
Odd that in all the nights she had
slept in this house she had never
noticed that the ticking could be
heard up here with the door lead
ing into the large room from the
hall. But! She knew it was shut,
Tor Augustus had closed it when he
• ame upstairs.
Perhaps the wind had blown it
■> pen—but no, it could not have
.lone that, for the latch was very
secure. Indeed the knob turned
uiffly. The wind could not have
>pened the door.
Yet the wind was blowing hard
enough to do almost anything, she
foflected as she listened to the
moaning of the chimney in the next
loom and the dashing of the rain
against the window panes. Of
course, many of those queer noises
were produced by the storm. There
had not been such another storm
as this for months.
Ah— there was that regular tread
ns of somebody walking: softly up
and down! It sounded just as Mary's
steps had sounded all last night
r - and down, up and down her
jvjm. Was it Mary now? Yes,
that was undoubtedly she. She
was walking up and down, up and
down, up and—No! that must be the
rain! Oh, dear! If she could only
sleep!
She kept her eyes closed tightly.
' she was a little girl she used
this at night 'to keep from
the dark," she said. That
le reason she did it now to
from seeing the dark,
wanted to sit up in bed and
and turn her pillow. After
this she might feel drowsy,
he dreaded lifting her head and
|d sitting up here In this
yet noisy darkness,
v the wind howled, and how
'windows rattled! Now the
was ticking loudly again,
i now there were those same
'steps going up and down.
Stops Coming Xoarer
spite of her shrinking from
Justus she was glad he was
3e at hand. While she hated him.
;vas a comfort to know that some
- human being was near. She
think of that. She would try
ten to nothing but Augustus'
ir snoring. She had never

not snore so loudly, so regu-
She would listen instead to

still tight shut, and settled
if more comfortably. Tick

SATURDAY EVENING,'
ber. As soon as she lost conscious
ness, she began to dream. The
ticking of the clock changed Into
steps coming nearer, nearer, and
above them all she could hear
Augustus snoring regularly, more
loudly, more loudly, more Ah!
What was that?
With a stifled scream she sat
up in bed, th e cold perspiration
oozing from every pore. What a
horrible night-mare! What had
awakened her? It was that queer
snore was it a snore?—that gur
gling kind of noise she had heard
even in her sleep. It must have
been Augustus snoring more loudly
than ever. Ah what was that!
Something moved in the next room.
Was It her husband? She could not
hear him snoring now could not
hear him breathing. Had that
gurgling sound come from him? If
not what—oh. what was that
moving about in there?
"Augustus!" she tried to call.
Her voice did not pentrale the
deep gloom by which she was sur
rounded. She could not stay here
any longer. She must go and wake
her husband, and make him speak
to her. She could not stand this
silence.
She was groping about for her
slippers. She had left them right
at the side of the bed. Here they
were! She thrust her feet into
them. Oh, how cold it was! She
was shivering with cold. She
caught up her flannel wrapper from
the chair and threw it around her
as she started into the next room
At the door she paused. Something
was moving in that great room.
SIIO Calls Aloud
"Augustus!" she called. Why
didn't she hear him breathing!
"Augustus!" Oh, God! She would
go crazy if he did not speak! She
must wake him must speak to a
living person!
In the darkness she staggered
toward his bed. Here it was. Shi
had run full against the side of it.
Augustus was here. She touched
him. He did not move.
"Augustus!" she screamed. She
caught him by the shoulder, tried
to find his face that she might
awaken him—then her hands slipped
into something thick and warm—
something that was flowing down
from his throat over the bed.
With a shriek as of some mad
creature she fled from the room. As
she reached the hall a shadowy
form caught at her but with an
other shriek she rushed downstairs
and out into the night.
Through the storm she ran grasp
ing, weeping, repeating over and
over, "Oh, God! Oh, God!" Her heart
heat suffocatingly, her mouth tasted
as if it were full of blood. But she
couldn't stop. Was IT following
her? Oh, she must run! She must
run!
She had come to the lane leading
to her old home. Down this she sped,
through the gate and up the short
path to the house. She threw her
self against the door, beating upon
it with both hands.
"Mother! Father!" she sobbed
"Quick! Quick!"
The door was opened from within
and Ezra Hardy stood there, a
lighted lamp in his hand.
"What!" —he began.
But his question was checked by
a gasping cry as his daughter fell
senseless at his feet.

TWO-PIECE SKIRT
FAVORITE MODEL
Smooth at Waist Line With the
Fashionable Flare at
Lower Edge
By MAY~MANTON
8851 (With Basting Line and Added
Seam Allowance) Two-Piece Skirt, 24
to 34 waist.
This is one of the latest and best liked
developments of the two-piece skirt.
It is abundantly full, flaring fashionably
at the lower edge, while it is perfectly
smooth at the waist line. The closing is
made at the left side, and at the right,
a genuine pocket is inserted in the seam.
This pocket mAns such comfort and con
venience that it will be found very gen
erally desirable, but it is, nevertheless,
optional and can he omitted if a plain
skirt is wanted. The model is an excel
lent one both for the gown and for the
street suit and is adapted alike to silk
and to wool fabrics. In the picture,
broadcloth is the naterial. The finish
can be made at the natural waist line or
a little above it with the skirt arranged
over belting. There is no better model
nor more fashionable model that could be
offered. It is very easy to make and it
gives the most graceful and the smartest
lines.
the medium size will be needed,
4*4 yds. of material 27 in. wide, 3K yds.
36, 2}s yds. 44 or 54 in. wide; the width
at the lower edge is 3 yds. and 4 in.
The pattern No. 8851 is cut in sizes
from 24 to 34 in. waist measure. It will
be mailed to any address by the Fashion
Department of this paper, on receipt of
ten cents.
Dr. Fager Didn't Find
First Hepatica This Year
Someone found the first hepatica
this year, on the last day of January,
while Dr. John H. Fager, Sr., who
usually claims this honor," was in At
lantic City.
Dr. Fager each year makes trips
to the country In search for early wild
flowers, but while away on a visit this
year several of his friends decided to
make a tour. Dr. Fager, in a letter
which he wrote last evening tells of
the find. His letter follows:
Editor of the Telegraph:
I notice in this evening's edition of
your paper you are watting for me to
find the first hepatica. I can't do it.
It was found by some friends of mine
in the last of January and sent to me
while I was in Atlantic City. It was
a beautiful plant with three large
flowers in full bloom. Please do not
retard Spring under the misappre
hension that the annual find hasn't
been made for I assure you it was a
really, rightly liverwort.

"I turned back. I'd been .....
before but never as angry as that.
Bodsky was already getting up the fly
of a tent. I saw it coming,' he said
with his quiet little laugh that you
never hear when there's anything to
laugh at. 'Look here, Bodsky.' I
said, 'let's walk to the old crossing.*
And he answered, 'My dear chap. I'm
going to sit right here. I wouldn't
miss this for a shot at elephant. That
inan Is Ten Percent Wayne.'.
"'Where'd you meet him?' I asked.
"'Never met him,' snld Bodsky,
lint I've heard of him.' So had I.
We sat down together under the fly
on a couple Of loads and propped two
whiskies-and-warm-water on another
lond in front of us and Watched Wayne
while Wayne watched his men.
" 'Suppose we offei him a drink,' I
said and ran the sweat off my eye
brows with my finger.
"Bodsky looked at me pityingly. 'So
yon want to get burned again. Does
that man look to you as though he
was thinking about a drink? Well, let
me tell you he isn't. Every bit of him
is thinking about that bridge every
minute. God! I haven't seen men
driven like that since I was a boy.
Once more there's something new In
'Africa! And I've never seen a man
drive ..imself like that, anywhere.' All
the Mongolian and Tatar that is said
to lurk in every liussian seemed to
be leaking out of Bodsky's narrowed
eyes.
"We sat there and drank and smoked
and sweated, and I sulked. Every once
in a while Bodsky would say some
thing. First it was: 'Those boys are
from the South. Must have brought
them with him.' Then it was: 'He
knows something about the sun. He
keeps his head in the shade-spot from
that lonely palm.' And finally: 'Col
lingeford. I never despised your intel
lect before., What are you sulking
for? Can't you see what's up? Can't
you understand that if a man will
stand for two hours shifting an inch
at a time with the shade rather than
disturb half a dozen niggers at work
to go and get a helmet be Isn't going
to call those niggers off to let a couple
of loafers like us crawl across his
girders? What you and I are staring
at is just plain common garden work
with a capital W, stark naked and
ugly, but it's great.'
"And right there I saw the light. To
us two the mystery of Ten Percent
Wayne was revealed. He could drive
men. He eouju make bricks without
straw. While work was on, nothing
else mattered. Right and wrong were
measured by the needs of that bridge
and death was too good for the shirk
er. And with the light I forgot the
brute in the man tearing along the
dizzy height of the girder to lash a
loafer and only remembered that he
had risked his life to avenge Just one
moment stolen from the day's work."
The stem of Collingeford's wine
glass snapped between his fingers.
"I'm sorry," he said, laying the pieces
aside. He smiled a little nervously
on the three tense faces before him.
"I don't tell that story often. It goes
too deep. Not everybody understands.
Some people call Wayne no better than
a murderer; but I'm not one of them.
And Bodsky says there have been a
lot of murderers he'd like to take to
his club."
"J. Y., there's somebody listening
at the door," said the captain. "Been
there some time."
J. Y. swung around and threw open
the door. He sprang forward and
caught Clem in the act of flight. He
brought her back into the room and
sat down, holding her upright beside
him. J. Y. was proud and for a mo
ment Collingeford's presence galled
him. "What were you doing, Clem?"
be asked.
Clematis was In that degree of em
barrassment and disarray which
makes lovely youth a shade more love
ly. Her brown hair was tumbled
abont her face and down her back.
Her cheeks were flushed and her thin
white neck seemed to iresibie above
the deep red 01 i-n- slightly yoked |
frock. Her lips wore moist and parted
In excitement. She was sixteen and
beautiful beyond the re:ieh of hack
neyed phrases. The four men fixed
their eyes upon her. and she dropped
hers. "I was eavesdropping," she said
In a voice that was very low but
clear.
"Why. Clem! - ' said J. Y. gravely.
Clem looked around on the four men.
She did not seem afraid. Unconscious
ly they waited for her to go on, and
i she did. "Mr. Colllngeford was telling
about. Alan. I heard Charley say he
■was going to. 1 shall always eaves
drop when anyone tells about Alan."
For a second her auditors were
stunned by the audacity. Oollinge
ford's face was the first to light up and
his hand came down on the table with
a bang. "Bully for you. young 'un!"
he cried and his clear laugh could be
heard on the lawn. Before it was
over, the judge joined in, the captain
grunted his merriest grunt and J. Y.
patted Clem's shoulder and smiled.
Clem was of the salt of the earth
among womankind—the kind that
j waits to weep till the battle is over
! and then becomes a thousand times
more dear in her weakness. Her big
eyes bnd been welling with tears and
now they jumped the barrier just as
Nance rushed in and cried. "What are
you all laughing at?" Then she caught
sight of Clem. From her she looked
around on the men. "You four big
' hulking brutes," she said. "Come to
me, Clem, you darling. What have
they been doing to you? There, there,
don't cry. Men are silly things. What
If they did laugh at you?"
Clem was sobbing on Nance's shoul
der. "It isn't~that," she gasped. "I
don't —mind —that'. But Mr. Collinge
ford cfl-called me a 'young one.' "
The three gray-heads kept their
faces with difficulty. Collingeford
! leaped to his feet. "My dear young
lady—Miss Clematis —" he stammered,
| "my word, now! I didn't mean It.
Swear I didn't. I'll do anything if
' you'll only stop crying. Do stop and
listen to me. I'll grovel."
I It took him an hour to make his
I peace.
Many they were who drank at the
' fountain of hospitality in Maple House
! and to all. quiet Mrs. J. Y. held out
the measured cup of welcome with
impartial band. But once in a while
one came who made the rare appeal
to the heart. Such a one was Col
lingeford. For all his wanderings, his
roughing, and his occasional regres
sion to city drawing rooms and ultra
country houses. Collingeford fitted into
the Hill —he belonged.
On Sunday night they were gath
ered on the lawn, all but Clem who
j sat at the piano beside an open win
dow and poured her girl's voice out
over the rippling keys. Her voice was
thin and clear like a mountain brook
I hurrying over pebbles and like the
j brook it held the promise of coming
1 fullness.
Collingeford sat by Mrs. J. Y.. a lit
tle apart from the others. They had
j not talked. Mrs. .1. Y. broke a long
I silence when she said, in a full low
voice that somehow seemed related to
i Clem's thin trill. "\Ve are very quiet
here."
Collingeford looked thoughtfully at
his glowing cigar end. "The best parts
of life are quiet." he answered.
"Do you really like it?" said Mrs.
J. Y., almost shyly. "Englishmen of
your class generally fall to the lot
! of our landed and chateauxed."
"My dear Mrs. Wayne," said Col
lingeford, "I've been sittiug here In
a really troubled silence trying to think
out how to ask you to make it a week
for me instead of a week-end."
Mrs. J. Y.'s laugh was happy but
low. It did not disturb the others.
Collingeford went on. "I know Amer
ica pretty well for an Englishman.
I thought I had done the whole coun
try. from Albuquerque to Newport.
But you are right. When we're not
roughing it out West, we visiting Ety{-
ilshmen arc pretty apt to be rubbing
up against the gilded high-lights of
the landed and the chateauxed. This"
—Collingeford waved his cigar to em-
J brace the whole of Rod Hill —"is some
thing new to me—and old. It's the
sort of thing Englishmen think of
! when they are far from home. I have
never seen It before in America."
"And yet," said Mrs. ,1. Y., "there
are thousands of quiet homes in Amer
ica just like it in spirit. In spite of
all our divorces —all oor national linen
washing in public—our homes are to
day what they always have been, the
backbone of the country. The social
world Is in turmoil everywhere and
America is in the throes no less than
England. Our backbone is under a
strain and some think It is breaking,
but I don't." She turned her soft
j eyes on Colllngeford and smiled.
"There," she added, "I have been
polemic but one seldom has the chance
to spread the good fame of one's coun
try. I am glad you can give us a
week instead of a week-end."

Cherry Tree, Pa.—"Eight years ago
When my little girl was born I came
near dying. When
'.V I got able to go
• aliout, my back
d<Ws3r hurt so when I
would bend over
'**Y v.;'; that I would have
to take hold of
.■J something with
my hands to get
it up. My husband
' W'/jtwuUtl got me two bot-
Jj w! til ? i Ul'l i • ties of Dr. Pleree'.l
Favorite Prescrip
tion, which I took and got along nicely.
I could sit up, and my back did not
hurt me. Was so nervous I could not
sleep nights; my heart troubled mo
nnd my back had sharp, stinging pains
■ when I would lean my head forward.
I wrote to I>r. Pierce and was advised
to take 'Favorite Prescription.' I used
several bottles and now I do all my
own work and tend to my garden anil
i flowers. May God bless you is my>
