OF INTEREST TO WHERE IS SWEET SIXTEEN GONE? "ES GIEBT KEINE KINDER MEHR" By BEATRICE FAIRFAX Where is sweet sixteen? She seems to have departed from the hearts of men. She was a very lovable little thin# who wore simple, modest clothes and had a manner to match, and she grew up Into a very lovable woman whom "all men delighted to honor." Where is she? Doesn't some group of sensible li.tle girls want to bring little girl » (torn back into fashion? It will be T\ery welcome. 1 suggest that some <f my girls start sweet Blxteen Mubs with the idea of promoting rhildhood! "Es Giebt Keino Kinder Mehr," says the old German proverb. And it Is pathetically true that "there aren't any children more." On the avenue, in the theaters, at dances, wherever groups of people are gathered, one observes pathetic lit tle travesties of womanhood who look at the first glance like dwarfs nnd who turn out to be poor foolish little girls aping the worst follies of the grown-up woman of to-day. A few evenings ago I stood in the Ninety-sixth street subway station waiting for a much delayed train. Before me came two strange fig ures, and my Instinctive reflection was, "How unfortunate that two little dwarfs should make them selves cheaply conspicuous with those absurd high boots and short skirts and pertly cocked little hats and all that make-up." They looked like tragic figures from a distance. Faces enameled to staring whiteness, cheeks rouged pink and lips painted crimson, eyes blackened and shadowed in an ab surd make-up and flashy clothes made all eyes focus on them. At last they came quite, quite near me and I found from their con versation and their rather pathetic little old young faces that they were Home Run Baker Slugging Third Base ly man of the New York \b\ °f 'the beverages, I \ "the one that makes kit with him is S\.v Demand the genuine by full name— I^"' nicknames encourage substitution.

It hurt me in the mere observing. And how sadly it is going to hurt these youngsters who prated one moment of their difficulties with their studies and the next about the boys they "had a crush on," and the third about how stingy the folks were not to buy them more than two party dresses a season. What are the mothers and fathers thinking about to permit this trav esty, this unholy parody of woman hood? If they have lost control of their children, both they and the children will pay a bitter reckoning some day. It won't do. Someone must cry a halt. We have to have children. I ap peal to the little girls and boys tnemselves. Why not go on a quest for youth? It is the most beautiful thing In the world. You can never have It again. Some day you may actually be driven to imitating it Just as cheaply and as desperately as now you imitate maturity. I appeal to the parents. Surely you know how vainly you long to-day for the youthful lightheartedness and irresponsibility and simplicity of viewpoint you once possessed. Surely you cherish every reminder of youth, every suggestion of youth In your own nature. In fairness to your children won't you conserve your youth? It won't last. It is the most fleeting and the most beautiful thing in the world. It Is dew on the grass In the sun light glow. Midday and night come soon enough. Why hasten them? Let us have a reawakening to the beauty of youth a movement for the conservation of childhood, a sentiment that shall make us band ourselves into a league of and for youth.

The rush of logs and other debris that came down with the freshet, ! however, worked what damage the high water itself could not do.

Noveiizatien by Huoh C. Weir. Copyright Kaiam Company. (Continued from Votarter.) With a final glance about the room, Mary stepped to the door, threw It open, and walked boldly into the hall, moving with the alow rhythmlo steps of a sleep-walker. Her white gown, her disheveled hair, her fixed eyas, all helped to give her a strange, ghostly rppearance. She felt thai her appear ance would deceive anything short of an expert examination. No one barred her way, and she was half way down the stairs, leading to the front door, before a sleepy attendant rose sudden ly from a chair below and stood star ing up at her. As though serenely un conscious of her scrutiny, she con tinued her descent, the man still glar ing uncertainly and plainly dubious as to the best action to take toward her. His experternoe with the Inmates of the institution had taught him thai a sud den shock to the nervous system might produce the most disastrous effects. If Thm Rem CM »f Mr. Maxumll. the girl were walking in her sleep she would have to be handled cau tiTusly. Mary's hand was on the key of the frent door before the man roused himself. Stepping forward, he laid a hand eonlly on tier arm, but the girl's Angers wer» already clutched about the key of the door With a scream she turned It and swun< open the door. Mona and ler two aides, crouched on the outer side, sprang Into the Mall. The at tendant staggered back with a curse— to see two revolvers leveled at his head. Mona caught Mary's arm and drag ged her Into the yard Then she spring back, with a quick order to her two confederates. ' One. of you will be enough to man age this man. You, Greene, make for Ludlow's office there at the end of the hall. Is the doctor there?" she snapped to the bewildered guard. The mar noddo-< sullenly and Greene moved off br'skly. "Now, which is Maxwell's room'*' 3'ie demanded of the guard, and then at the man's stare, she added, remem- Ivring the name under which the finan cier had been registered, "I mean ~dn»r.' " The attendant's face lighted, and Mona, motioned to the chauffeur to accompany him. "We'll wait for you In the car," she railed. "When vou have Maxwell safe, leave Greene here to hold the fort until we can set help back to him. Do you understand?" Fifteen minutes later Roland Max well had been insisted to the rear seat of the automobile, and the driver was turning the rar into the open road. In the sanitarium, Greene had cornered the attendant and Ludlow in the lat ter'# office, ana w ' a ® holding them se renely covered with his revolver, while he, hims«lf, proceeded to enjoy a leis urely pipe. It wa« in the early morning when the automobile drew up again before the entrance of the Grand Hotel. Mona's plans had already been made, and a hasty consultation with the be wildered M?xwell had brought a hasty assent from him. Covering the finan cier in a long automobile duster, and pulling a cap well down over his face, the two glrla proceeded with him through the lobby and to the eleva tor, without any Inkling of the miss ing man's reappearance reaching the night clerk at the desk When the three were safe In the sitting room of the g'ris' suite. Mona sketched rapidly for Maxwell a revfew of the events of the past twenty-four hours—and the financier, now beginning to recover from his disquieting experience, added such details as were necessary for a thorough understanding of the situa tion. Mona's surmise that he had been kidnapr?d by enemies on the market was correct. His disappearance ha 3 been engineered by Messrs Durkln and Wentworth, following his refusal 1 o aid them In their scheme to force •lown the market. Maxwell paced rest lrnslv back and forth over the room as his kern mind, now res'ored to nor mal, began to appreciate the full enormltv of what had been done, and how much he owed to the quick wit o' his two young friends. "Wo will, of course. keep my reap pearance a secret until we see how the market breaks," he dt-cided. "but we had better Bret someone Out to that Infernal sanitarium without delav. Your man, Greene, must be about .-x --ii;. listen with his vlgll—and besides if Wentworth or Purkln think to phone the place, I hey will learn at onc e what has hnpnone'l We mu*t apalnst that happening until we are ready to syrlncr our llltle surprise." Maxwell's little "surprise" when It was flnallv sprung at about noon, proved all that could have been desire-'. T'ne two consnl rator-* we-e lltoralty caught red-handed, and suffered them'- selves to be led Into custody without a word Eivn when they met Dr. T<ud lew at the nolle,. station, their stut,e factlon and bewilderment were so p-reat that they accepted this last crushing blow without a w-rd With the sudden reappearance of Maxwell, the artificially deflated stock jumped b»ck to norr-.al with a ~ur'prlsinr: bound, and the financier returned to his hotel late in the afternoon, on the whole very well satisfied with the dav> developments H's flrst action was to summon M*r" «nd Mona. and a« thev stepped Into the room, he pressed Into their hand-: two checks "I took the liberty of Investing a few hundred for vo<i In Munition Stock be fore I sent th« >rarket 110 asaln." he explained "1 thought yon wye en titled to profit hv what you h»vi> don-."

Discussing Plans For Forming Monster Banking Firm to Capture Trade By Associated Press London. June 20. Although the London morning papers all deny re ports of the organization of a new international hanking house with an initial capital of 10,000,000 pounds sterling, aiming under the supervision of the government to assist British traders and manufacturers to secure a big share of the trade with the allied countries after the war, it appears that tentative plans for some such organization are being discussed in high financial quarters. It is felt that a great hank of this type, co-operating with similar institu tions in France, Italy and Russia would enable British traders to parti cipate to the exclusion of the Germans in the enormous work of restoring one' rebuilding the ravaged portions of Europe. Matters of Great Import Are Before Parliament By Associated Press London, June 20. Matters of great importance await the consider ation of Parliament which reassembles to-day. Since recess was taken three weeks ago there have been three happenings of great moment, namely, the naval battle off Jutland, the allies economic conference at Paris, and the death of Lord Kitchener which necessitates the appointment of a new war minister. The legislators will want much information concerning tl:esf; matters and in addition the at titude of the allies toward Greece and the Irish problem provide questions for deep consideration. Much atten tion will also be given to finance as the new budget is promised for next month and another vote of credit is scheduled for early in August. $50,000 Ty Cobb "Comes Back" Nuxated Iron Makes Him Winner—Greatest Baseball Batter of all time says Nuxated Iron filled him with renewed life after he was weakened and all run down.

The Times military correspondent in France writes that the opinion on the British i ftonl is most optimistic that the war will he brought -to a successful con clusion during the year 1916. The feeling of optimism, he says, is based largely on the following factors: "Continually growing numbers of' men and quantities of munitions on the entente front: the extraordinary > successes of the Russian armies: the arresting of the Austrian offensive in Trentino; the silencing of the Ger man navy through the sea battle off Jutland; the exhaustion of the Ger man reserves as indicated by the call ing up of 17-year-old youths and the' usi' of prisoners in German munitions factories. "The task hefore us," the corre spondent adds, 'remains a hard one, | bu' conditions are favorable to us and it only remains for generalship and hard fighting to take advantage of tliem."

"General Brusiloff's big push opened with a gas attack during the still hours about dawn a fortnight ago," says the Morning Post's Petrograd cor respondent. "Over a section of over 30 miles in extent the gas pro jected into the enemy's position was followed by a hurricane artil lery attack and then by infantry. | "The composition of the new Russian gas is a secret but there is no antidote for it and it Is not sub ject to the uncertainties of the German gas. The gas is launched in a definite direction and carries for several miles, while for use at still greater depths It can be com bined with the explosive charges of big shells. No mask previously used is of the slightest avail against this, but the Russians have ; been provided with a special mask I which is efficacious." 7
