OF INTEREST T | "THEIR MARRIED UFE" | C«|||l|ll kx Utouttnal R«"» •" "Warren, 1 heard of an awfully sad rase to-day," said Helen as they set tled themselves in the cosy living room after dinner. Wha» kind o fa case?" said War len, not much Interested. He had oaten heartily and did not feel talka tive. Besides, he was weary and did »ot want to be bothered. r "It's the kind of a tale that happens once everv so often. Do you remem ber the little dressmaker I had last year—the one who made those little ilresses for Winifred?" "Yes. the little one who came and asked for her money one evening." "Well, Airs. Stevens was telling me about her to-day. It seems that she has been tentatively engaged for sev eral years. He has been her one sol ace. her one recreation and she lived for his visits to New York, for they were the only periods of fun she had." "Well," said Warren curiously, "what happened? From the looks of thnt woman 1 should never have sus pected a man in the background." "Well, I suppose she was as hu man as the rest of us." defended Hel en. "It's quite a long story. This engagement has been extending for an indefinite period, and about every three months, when the man came to New York, they would meet and have dinner together. Mrs. Stevens said that the poor little thing was often in need, but she had all kinds of be lief in this man. and never reproached him, .iust waited." "What for?" "Why for him to arrange his affairs So that he could marry." "Oh, he had promised to marry her?" "Why, yes, dear, of course. He gave her a ring, a- cheap little affair, but she thought it was wonderful." "Well, go on. What happened?" Mrs. Stevens said that the last time he was in town they met as usual to have dinner. He had told her in the Fall that in the Spring he would be ready for her. and she had been work ing .on a modest trousseau. In fact, she had given up many engagements because she was so sure of being mar ried." "What happened?" She l)i>missPS Him "The poor little thing told him that she was ready, and he first pretended not to understand. Of course, he told the usual story and said he had tried to fix things, but that it was im possible just at present." "And she resigned herself to the fact and has gone back to wait another three months'.'.. "No. not at all. She fired up, and told him quite plainly that she was done with him." "By George.'. She did? Well, the poor little woman. What did he say? "Why, he blustered, of course, but he finally said that it was just as well ps it was unfair to her. He said that she had probably other chances to marry, and he would not hold her to the engagement any longer." "And I suppose when he went on his next trip he took his ring with him ?" "Yes. he did. Mrs. Stevens told Die about it In the hopes that I would ■would give the woman something to do, and would recommend her to my friends. I certainly am going to do everything I can for her." Warren smoked in silence for a few minutes and then looked up at Helen. "Why do you suppose he bothered the woman in the first place?" 'Well, Mrts. Stevens and I think he was probably sincere at first, but that he gradually grew tired." "It's hard on the woman." "Yes, it would be hard, anyway, but doubly hard when she finds it so dif f cult to get along."

TUESDAY EVENING, n "I should think that you and Mr* Stevens could think of some way to help her get work. Isn't there some thing original that you could try? The woman sews well enough, doesn t she?" "Tat, very well. The trouble is that she haan't enough, initiative to go ahead and try new things." "Why don't you help fix her place up? You might add some glmcracks of some kind, and give her a French I name." Helen threw down her embroidery and looked at Warren for a moment. Then she sprang up and threw her arms about his neck. A Clever Idea Warren Curtis, you're a dear. Of course we can do that- It's a won derful idea. I don't see how you happened to think of it. Of course, we'll do that. We ll give her a real nr>m de plume and Just make her branch out. Mrs. Stevens and I can spread It around thai we have made a discovery, and we can set her to copy ing some imported models. All that she needs Is a little assurance." "Yes, buy some copies of the latest fashion magazines; they certainly feature wild enough models for any one." "Of course, and we can take her to a real place and let the atmos phere sink in, before we tell her that she is to become a fashionable dress maker. Why, perhaps we can make the woman. Imagine, Warren, sup pose we can help her to be almost happy and contented. Why, it will p.ean just ever so much. I'd do anything to help." "But remember," said Warren, warningly, "don't aim too high; you ('.on't want to be disappointed." "We'll be careful. But I simply I must tell Mrs. Stevens, dear. I can't wait another minute." "I suppose you'd like to begin to night. wouldn't you?" "Almost. Shall I ask the Stevenses to come over for a game of cards? "No. not to-night. I'm going to bed early. Now don't talk for half an hour. The telephone bill was too large last month, and I don't want another that sixe." (Another instalment of this very hu man series will appear here soon.) THE IVORY DOME IN BASEBALIj. "Kill" Gleason, formerly assistant manager and general factotum of the White Sox, is noted for the sharpness of his repartee on the ball field. Man ager Jennings, of the Detroit Tigers, had occasion to feel the sting of Glea son's tongue just before the veteran left the Chicago club. Hughie, it must be remembered, has been in volved in two serious accidents, each of which nearly terminated his ca reer. First he dived into the swim ming pool at Cornell when there was no water in It, breaking bones in numerable and having to stay in bed for weeks while the doctors patched him up. Ijater he drove his auto mobile off a bridge near Scranton and hurt himself so badly that he was in a hospital for a couple of months. Gleason, of course, knew all about these two accidents and whan the time came he reminded Jennings of them in a way more pointed than polite. The Detroit manager was coaching one afternoon and had taken occasion to make a number of extremely per sonal remarks to the Chicago pitcher. He plainly was "getting the slabman's goat" and Gleason was quick to come to the rescue. "Why you freckled-faced ape," he yelled at Hughie. "You have a fine chance to be kidding anybody.

A TEST OF WATCHES By Frederic J. Haskin [Continued From Kilitorial Page] grade watch is adjusted to run in eith er three or five positions, hence the necessity for this number of tests. These tests are made at a temperature of 84 degrees Fahrenheit, which is supposed to be the temperature of the watch pocket. In order to determine how heat and cold affect the instru ment, it is also tested at 41, 68 and 95 degrees. Finally, Its isochronism, or the uniformity of Its rate throughout the day is determined. This careful testing of timepieces shows them to be very delicate instru ments —much more so than the aver age watch owner, or even the. average jeweller. Imagines. For example, the experts have found that when a watch is hung on a nail or hook, un less it rests firmly againat something, its own power will set it swinging which will result in its gaining from eighth to 130 seconds in 24 hours more than it would if at rest. Now Jewel lers almost invariably hang up the watches brought them for repair, and this may well explain the fact that frequently the watch runs all right when the jeweller has it, but when he gives it back to you it loses. Most watch owners hardly deserve good service in return for the treat ment they give their watches. Ev eryone knows, of course, that it is bad for a watch to be dropped, even • short distance. In point of fact, let ting a watch fall to the end of a chain or dropping your vest on a chair with the watch in the pocket may throw it off, while jumping off n street car or any other sudden motion of lhe per son, may cause a considerable inac curacy. If you want the exact time, you should treat your watch with the utmost consideration, and comport yourself with careful dignity.

Keep your watch pocket clean, and if the watch crystal is cracked or brok en replace it Immediately. Wind your watch regularly, steadily and | slowly. It will improve the working of many watches to wind them twice a day. Compare your time daily with that of some standard clock. The best way is to make a practice of I passing some clock set by the govern ment observatory every morning on your way to work, and to wind and set your watch at exactly the same time every day. Again, do not foppishly carry your watch in your upper coat pocket. It's too cold up there. Keep it in your vest pocket, close to the body in the equatorial regions, where it will get uniform heat at all times. Don't put it by the open window at night, either. It can catch cold as well as you can. i Also be careful what position you put it In at night. If you are very observ ing, you can find out what its com pensating positions are, so that by let ting it stand up all day and lie on its face all night, for example, you may make it come out exactly right at the end of the 24 hours. If you can't find this compensating position, make the watch stand up all night, Just as it does In the day. U. S. TO POMCE SAX DOMINGO Washington, D.
