The housewife may borrow another

contain the secret of instantly remov

when the chemicals are applied In

in all the fresh air you can get as the
oxygen in the air consumes fat while
the oil of korein capsules, taken one
with each meal and one before you go

accumulations in the system wherever

Oil of korein is absolutely harmless,
is pleasant to take, helps digestion and
costs little.
Even a few days following of uiese
simple directions has been leported to
show a noticeable reduction in weight,
with the flesh firm, the skin smooth and
the general health improved. In fact
your footsteps may appear lighter to
you. your work seem easier and you
may easily seem to gain a pound of
health and strength with every pound
ot' flesh you lose. Every person ten
pounds or more overweight ran well
afford to give this reducing system a

THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER XI,VII
Sylvia Ainsleie did not speak again
UQtll Air. Hendricks had carefully
turned his buggy around. Then she
looked at Dayton.
Grace answered for him. "No—
for that would mean that Mr. Dav
ton must sit in his wet clothes for
and hour and a half longer, and he
would run the risk of catching his
death of cold. "We'll walk."
"It does seem to be the only thing
to do," he acquiesced slowly. "But
think of your white shoes."
"They will clean perfectly," she
| informed him. Then, to Sylvia—
I "May J trouble you to tell my
mother that 1 am perfectly safe,
and that I will probably reach home
by dark'."'
"Bui I fear we won't," the man
remarked as the buggy started and
they began their journey afoot.
"What if we don't" the girl said
lightly. "1 enjoy experiences, and
this surely has been one."
As she glanced at her companion
she saw in his eyes a gleam of ad
miration which she could not under
stand. For she knew that she
looked very much bedraggled as she
'splashed along in the mud, her
I white dress tumbled and creased,
her once white shoes already en
trusted with dirt, her hair clinging
|in moist strands about her face and
i neck.
J She untied the white chiffon veil
and took it off, folding it carefully,
ilt was fairly new, and might yet be
! saved. She would not keep It on,
oven if she was a fright without it.
\ But the man at her side saw a
j very different creature from that
I her fancy painted. He noted the
graceful figure, the ready smile, the
wide, expressive eyes.
; GRACE XOT TIRED.
It was near the end of the last mile
that he spoke out his thought. They
had paused to rest for a minute and
to watch the glow fading out of the
west, where the sun had gone down
a half hour ago.
"Are you fearfully tired?" he Inquir
ed anxiously.
"Of course not," she answered.
"I can't tell you," she said, "how
sorry I am for all the discomfort I
have put you through."
"Don't try," she advised, "for I am
not sorry a bit. We've had a walk
that X never should have thought of
taking but for the remarkable drive
that preceded it."
Her evident sincerity gave him
courage to speak the words that'
came surging up front his heart, but 1
that, until now. he would have con-'
sidered it presumptuous to utter.
"You're a dear little sport!" he.
exclaimed.
She laughed tremulously. "All I
my life I've wanted to be considered i
a sport, although I've never been 1
able to live up to the title," she'

when the thunder shower came up,

i apologies, then cut him short by
iteliing him that she knew he was

ter upstairs.
She found Grace seated. Watch
ing her, she saw in the young face
an expression that had never been
there before, and her heart thrilled
at signs of the happiness that made
her child almost beautiful. But she
would ask no questions. Indeed, she
would show that she demanded no
confidences.
"Don't bother to tell me about it
now, dear little girl," she said.
"After a while we will have a good i
long talk. It's late now and I will
wait for you downstairs."
As Myra started from the room
Grace spoke again. "Mother" she
said, her voice unsteady in spite of
her efforts to control it, "if—if

WOMEN LOSING
TELEGRAM FEAR
Thousands of Western Union
Night Letters on Break
fast Tables Daily
In the present prosperity of the
"VA estern Union Telegraph Company re
flected in the steady advance of its
stock, predicated upon an increase in
net income for the last quarter of 80
per cent, over the same quarter In
1915, no small part has been played
by the avidity with which the Ameri
can public has seized upon th« use of
the night letter for both husiness and
social communication. While there is
jalso a large use of the day letter, its
use had not approximated the use of
the night letter, which can be sent up
to 2 o'clock in the morning from any
part of the United States to any other
part to be delivered at breakfast time.
Six years ago there were no night
letters. To-night, unless some catas
trophe destroys the Western Union
system, its lines will carry approxi
mately 40.000 night letters of fifty
words or less. There will be about
two-thirds that number of day letters
sent. Of the 100,000,000 messages a
year sent over tho Western Union
lines, 12,000,000 are night letters,
illustrating the remarkable growth of
this auxiliary to tho telegraph service.
About 8,000,000 day letters are sent
annually. This growth has taken place
in the case of the night letters since
IPIO, and in the case of the day letters
since 1912. The increase in the last
year has been about 2G per cent., and
the company expects a like increase in
the ensuing year.
12,000.000 Night Letters a Year
The night letter was started by the
Western Union in 1910 because it
wished to make some use of its great
facilities lying idle at night. It was
decided to make the experiment of
giving its patrons the opportunity to
send fifty words at night for the cost
of a ten-word day message, to be de
livered at the start of business the
next day. The idea took from the
start. Business men found they could
send to their traveling salesmen at the
close of the day's business important
information which their men would
have at the start of the next day's
business quicker than a letter, by days
in some cases, and much cheaper than
the old rate of message. Then the
man away from home began to send
his wife a night letter, which she read
at breakfast the next morning. Busi
ness houses began to send appeals to
customers by the night letter. Then
the Western Union went after the
business in earnest and now there are
12,000,000 night letters annually.
Women's Fear of Telegrams
But the old-time fear of the tele
gram has not been altogether over
come by the night letter. Onlv this
month, when the nation-wide use of
the night letter was suggested In con
nection with the celebration of
Mother's Day on May 14. by which
sons and daughters could send words
of cheer to the "old folks at home," it
was suggested that the mothers would
receive a fear along with the telegram
which would counteract the words of
cheer they would read when they
opened it. It was at first suggested
that special envelopes be used which
would bear the words "This is a
Mother's Day telegram." This was
discarded because it was too expen
sive. Special Mother's Day blanks
were furnished and the rest of the
problem was solved by instructing all
messenger boys delivering such mes
sages to say to the recipient, "Madam,
this is a Mother's Day message." Tele
graph officials hope even this precau
tion will not be necessary in a vear or
two.
Telegraph officials believe that the
business and social possibilities of the
telegraph have only been tapped. They
believe there will be more new uses
and greater amplifications of the serv
ice. As the night letter was Inaugu
rated In 1910 to supply a use for facili
ties at night, the day letter was started
to use the "valleys" in the service
facilities. There are "peaks" in the
! business at 10 o'clock in the morning,
| a* noon and at the Hosing of business
around 4.50 o clock. PtlffMn

"peaks" are "valleys." The day letter
of fifty words is sent during the "val

the regular business messages. The
charge Is one-and-a-half times that of
the night letter.
The night message is sent ahead of
the night letter and behind the regu

only at about two-thirds of the rate
of the regular message.
