"We ought to have a perfect time," |
said Helen, watching the flying land
scape and settling down closer in the
seat of the car.
"Yes. and the kid will be tickled
with the flowers," said Warren,
grinning amiably. "I'm glad you
thought of that."
"Girls are so thrilled about re
ceiving flowers." said Helen. "I
remember how T was at seventeen."
Helen and Warren were on their
way to see a school play. One of
"Warren's nieces was at boarding
school out in the Jersey hills and
had sent tltem an invitation to at
tend an annual play. For a won
der Warren had been quite taken
with the idea. Helen was vaguely l
surprised as he so seldom had time
for anything of the kind, but when
the invitation had come he had said
immediately that they must go.
"Well run out in the oar," he had
said suddenly.
"Oh. then it isn't true." said Helen
QUicklv, and then stopped.
"What isn't true?"
"That we are going to sell the
car?"
"Now, where did you hear that?"
"Mrs Davenport mentioned It at
Louise's luncheon."
"And 1 suppose you have been
making yourself miserable over It."
"Warren had continued.
"Well. Warren. I did think that If
you had decided anything of the
kind that T should have been told."
"Well, we're not going to sell the
car, make your mind easy on that
score."
"What did Mrs. Davenport mean?"
"Well, business was poor a couple
of months back and 1 did think 1
might raise some ready cash on the
car. 1 spoke to Davenport about
it. but I found that I couldn't get
nearly what It was worm. I dldn'*
tell you because I didn't want to
worry you about it before 1 found
out for sure."
\ Perfect Day
"And you want to go up in It
Saturday?"
"Pure 1 think that's a groat plan
unless it rains."
And so * hey had actually started
In the car. Heh#i jubilant nnd War
ren in one of his best humors.
The dav was perfect and the car
ran smoothly. They had left rather
late In the afternoon as Warren
had taken time to finish some busi
ness letters, but they had planned
to reach Mendel Valley in plenty
of time to dress for dinner. War
ren seldom spoke when he was driv
ing. and Helen was silent too. The
beauty of the day made her disin
clined for talking and the country
was looking its best. At Morris
town as they were driving through
a tire blew out. Helen stole a
glance at Warren's face, and for a
wonder found him grinning.
"Tough luck." he remarKed. "Well,
we'll have It fixed In a Jiffy. They
drew up to the curb and Helen
Jumped out and went Into the little
dry goods store that boasted ihe
name of Perkins over lis awning.
She smiled a Uttle as she watched
Warren from the window. He had
eone to work and had the shoe off
already.

FRIDAY EVENING, HXKR'SBURO TELEGRAFI MAY 12, 1116
1 The rest of the drive was accom- j
plished safely and they drove up to
the low wooden structure, where
tbey engaged rooms, or where Nat-1
alie had engaged rooms for them. |
Everything was pleasant and they :
went upstairs Immediately to a j
large square room. The bed looked
comfortable, and Warren walked
around and examined thtngs closely:
as was his wont.
"Things look great, eh?"
"Yes, everything Is certainly corn- !
fortable. dear."
"Well, It's after six: shall we
1 right away? 1 feel as if a bath
■ would make a good Impression on
me."
"You take your bath and I'll get
! your things out," said Helen, begin-!
nlng to unpack the traveling bags.
Things were progressing beautl- 1
fully. She was beginning to feel
quite girlishly excited over the
' prospect of being the guest of honor
i and having one's niece take a j
prominent part In a play. She had i
met Xatalle only once and remetn-i
bered her as a slim little thing with
a wide laughing mouth and beauti
ful eyes.
Warren flnlshed dressing and
urged her to hurry.
"We want some tim* to look
around before the show starts." he
had said.
I Helen hastened as much as pos
sible and Just as she was ready to
come out she heard Warren utter a
savage exclamation.
Trouble at 1 -ast
"What is it dear?" she called.
"What Is it?" repeated Warren
sarcastically. "Well, you've made a
pretty mess of things."
Helen wondered what she had
forgotten to pack and hurried out
to him her eyes filled with anxiety,
"What's the matter. Warren?"
"Matter? Matter enough. Do you
know what you've done? You've
hroucht my old dress coat."
"Why, Warren, that isn't possi
ble."
"Why Isn't it Here it is, you
can see for yourself. Now, what's
going to be done?"
Helen was genuinely sorry for
Warren. She knew that he boyish
ly wanted to make a good Impres
sion that evening and she was furi
ous with herself for the mistake.
"1 thought you had put that coat
away," she said penitently. "I am
so sorry, dear. 1 wouldn't have done ;
it for worlds."
Helen might have said that it was
his own fault for not remembering
to take care of it as he said he
would. She had offered to do it
herself, but he had told her to leave
it alone. Well, things might be;
worse. Warren must make the best
of it.
"It won't be noticed, dear," she
offered consolingly.
"Won't be noticed. That's all you'
know about, it," said Warren, get
ting into the coat. "I've a good mind
not to go at all." And he went
angrily out pf the room.

The Kronprins \VUhr.lm steamed ,
from Hoboken August 3, 1914. A little
more than a month later, September
4. 1914. she sank the British steamer
Indian Prince jfmnd from Bahta to
Ntw York, after confiscating all the
coal, white flour, meat, butter, canned
vegetables, coffee, sugar, and soda ,
crackers found on that ship.
Her own supply of fresh meat was
nearly exhausted when the Indian
Prince was sighted. The white flour
and meat were looked upon as manna l
from heaven. Another month passed. '
October 7, 1914, the British steamer
l.a Oorrentina, bound from Argentina
to l.ondon with 5,600.000 pounds of
l'resh beef, was sighted by the Ger- ■
man ship's lookout. She. too, was,
run down and from her Immense re- ,
frigerators, flooded with formaldehyde
gas. the Germans seised enough
chilled and frozen beef to supply her
needs for several years.
She crammed her own spacious re
frigerators with hindquarters and
ribs. In addition she corned 150,000
pounds of rounds, using the custom
ary brine of sodium chloride and
potassium nitrate in the process.
After taking enough meat to provide I
each member of her erew as much as
three pounds a day for an entire year J
she confiscated all the L.a Correntina's
butter, patent flour, tea biscuits, sweet
crackers, potatoes, canned vegetables,
and her meager supply of fresh vege
tables before blowing her up. Six
weeks passed. .
November 21. 1914, she captured the .
French bark Anne de Bretagne on ,
her way from Fredrickstad to Syd- I
ney. This boat, before she was blown
to pieces, surrendered all her coal,
patent flour, butter, potatoes, canned
vegetables, sugar, coffee, champagne,
and dried peas. The rest of her pro
visions went to the bottom.
The Germans had all the meat,
bread, and hutter they coud eat. With
their twenty-six knots an hour they
knew they could continue to scour
the seas until the end of the war, If
necessary, sinking vessel after vessel
and obtaining coal and provisions as
lon;j as the men continued in health.
Fresh meat, bread and butter, and •
potatoes are generally assumed to be
life-sustaining foods. The Germans
unwittingly were about to explode
that mischievous but long-venerated
theory.
December 4. 1914. after she had
been cruising for four months, she |
sank the British steamer Bellevue,,
bound from Liverpool to South Amer
ica. From this ship she secured 4,000
tons of coal and an immense shipment
of sweet biscuits with all the patent
flour, butter, and canned vegetables
which the Englishman carried.
The slow-moving influence of their
refined and demineralized diet (en- !
tlrely acid-producing) had not yet
made itself felt in the bodies of the'
sturdy Germans and there was no;
suspicion, even among the ship's sur
geons. of the fact that the fruits of:
her raids were actually gnawing Into!
her own vitals.
On the afternoon of the same day. j
December 4, 1914. she sank the French
steamer Mont Agel, bound from 1
Marseilles to South America. Before:
blowing her up all her butter, patent
flour and potatoes were seized.
Each raid, while supplying tons of
food, was slowly but surely inten- j
slfylng the mild acidosis that was
finally destined to a violence that;
would overpower her crew and compel
her to make her last dash through i
What! Mayor Comes Out
For Kissing Just After
Park Spooning Stand
Mayor E. S. Meals has proved him
self an able ally of Dan Cupid this
year, and only yesterday advised Har
risburg girls not to be afraid of kiss
ing. He, of course, urges them to be
particular about whom they kiss. Re
cently the Mayor went on record in
favor of spooning in the city parks.
Following are a few of his paragraphs
about kissing, which he is positive will
bring goods results if used:
Young men and women should kiss
—lt would mean more marriages,
more homes.
Naturally be particular whom you
, kiss.
Husbands and wives should kiss, it
would mean fewer divorces.
Children kiss your parents, you
would learn to appreciate them more.
Kiss your friends—you would have
fewer enemies.
Kis your enemies—you'll make them
your friends.

darkness Into a neutral port, en
feebled. broken and undone.
Had It not been for her plentiful
supply of typical American and Eng
lish meals she might have remained
out there on the high seas until the
end of the war, sinking French and '
English ships.
Christmas of 1914 passed Quietly.!
and three days later, December 28, she '
sank the British steamer Hemisphere, ]
bound from Hull to Uosario, obtain- i
Ing 5,000 tons of coal, with a great
quantity of white flour, butter, sweet
cakes, potatoes, and canned vege
tables.
January 19. 1915, she sank the
British steamship Portaro. bound
from Liverpool to South America,
after taking all her coal, patent flour,
sugar, canned vegetables, butter and
enormous consignment of Huntley &
Palmer's sweet biscuits. So many of
these biscuits were seized that tin
boxes of them were presented as
"tips" to all the small boys and mes
sengers who ran out to her In small
boats on the James River with papers,
packages, telegrams, and mall after
her arrival at that port.
As 1 watched the boys take away
those prize boxes of Huntley * Pal
mer's biscuits I wondered whether the
people would really ever hear the
truth through the magazines and la
dies' journals and other organs of up
lift that parade the advertising of so
many foodless foods.
January 14. 1915 she sank the Brit
ish steamship Highland Brae, running
between the slaughterhouses of
Buenos Ayres and the meat markets
of lA>ndon. The temptation to seize I
more fresh meat was not resisted, and j
in addition she took enough shoes to j
supply a small city. She also took all
the butter, patent flour, potatoes, and j
canned vegetables which the High- j
land Brae had aboard.
Scarcely had the bomb exploded |
which caused the British steamer to <
lurch forward and gurgle to the bot
tom when fhe British schooner Wil
fred Al, from St. John's to Bahia
came peeping over the horizon. In
half an hour the Germans hail over
hauled her and in a few hours had
confiscated her cargo of salt fish, po
tatoes. white flour and butter.
The pallor of her crew and the dila
tation of the pupils of their eyes, to
gether with marked shortness of
breath here and there, were observed
l)V Dr. Perrenon, but were not con
sidered seriously significant, and the
men went on devouring their typical
American meals, so highly rated by
the professors of convention and the
advertising geniuses of the refined
food industry.
February 6, 1916. she sank the Nor
wegian bark Samentha. from Linton
to Falmouth, loaded with a cargo of
whole wheat. The germ and bran of
that wheat would have been worth
more to the rapidly succumbing Ger
mans than its weight In gold and
precious stones, but the Germans did
not realize that they were sick.
Acidosis is a disease which does not
And its way Into the papers, and the
common people, including those who
suffer most from its ravages, have
ntxer heard of It. It was not sur
prising that the Germans did not
know how badly they needed that
whole wheat with Its alkaline bases
and its oilier soluble extractives and
! vita mines.
They did not know that within a
1 few weeks one hundred of them would
pass Just one Inch beyond the limit
of toleration, after which only one
treatment under the blue sky could
save them. In consequence of their
faith in fresh meat, white flour, but-
Iter. boiled potatoes, canned vegetables,
sweet biscuits, coffee and condensed
milk, those thousands of bushels of
whole wheat with their priceless salts
and colloids were sent to the bottom,
and not a single bushel was trans
ferred to the German boat.

history, even though they are doubt
less destined to provide moad oad
less destined to provoke much noisy
and futile controversy in high places.
