OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
TA GIRL AND A MAN
A New and Vital Romance of City Life
: ij by Virginia Terhune Van tie Water
CHAPTER VI
(Copyright. 1916. Star Co.)
Thus began Agnes Morley's first
work with the firm of Hale & Bain
bridge.
After the brief conversation when
6he entered his employ William Hale
no word but of the business
of the day to his new stenographer
end secretary. He had put her im
mediately in her place. She was to
Vr. as she had expected, merely a
fcort of machine in his office.
She was too busy throughout the
morning to reflect on this matter,
foi she needed all her wits to per
forn> her task well. She was so
nervous at first that her hands and
feet were like ice. Then, as ner new
employer dictated one letter after
another, her pulses becam calm and
her hands resumed their normal
temperature.
The very realization that she was
tut an animate apparatus ror his
convenience steadied her. She was
g'.ad that he knew nothing of her
personality. It was very much
cosier just as it was.
At 1 o'clock Mr. Hale drew a long
bteath. as if of weariness.
••There!" he said. "That's enough
for the present. You may go on out
to luncheon. Be back by a quarter
of two. 1 want to sign my letters
before I leave the office at five.
"Very well, sir." she heary herself
•aying.
The closet in which she had hung
her hat and coat was in the large
outer room. When she left Mr. Hale's
rrivate office she noticed a door to
the right of it. It bore the name of
"Haebrook Bainbridge." followed by
the word "Private." The same word
war on Mr. Hale's own office door.
This room then was occupied by
the junior member of the firm.
Glr cing quickly about the other
room, railed off into various spaces,
she noticed that the stout man
whom she had seen here this
morning was not present. His
stenographer also was nowhere to
be seen. But the youi>g g:ri who
had been seated at a typewriter
earlier in the day was just now cov
ering her machine preparatory to
going out. She noddea kindly to
Apnes as she met her ey*.
An Introduction
"How do you do?" she said. "I'm
Miss Kooney one of the typists
here. I guess you're Mr. Hale's new
secretary—aren't you?"
"Yes." Agnes replied. "I am Agnes
Morley, the new secretary."
"I'm pleased to meet you." the
oth6r said. "Since you're giving me
yc-ir first name. I suppose I mav as
«f : l give you mine It's Annie
but I sort of hate to tell it to
en-angers—for all of them laugh at
It.'
"I don't see why." Agnes said.
"I'm sure Annie's a very nice name."
"Oh. it's on account of that old
song, 'Annie Rooney." that they
latish." Annie explained.
"I never thought of that." Agnes
Biui'.ed.
She looked at her companion in
tently. fcr she saw that the girl
wanted to be friendly. It was a
pity, she thought, that any one
who might have been somewhat at
ti active should dress as Annie
Rooney did.
Her plump figure was compressed
Ir.to a very tight dress, her hair was

Modern Science Finds a New Method
How Nerve Insulation Stops Inflammation and Eetema, Sunburn and
All Skin Diseases Yield to Remarkable
New Discovery
The nerves of your body are like
electric wires They carry the nerve
energy (neuro-electricity) which is
generated in the brain, to all the
cells and tissues. The nerve sheaths
are insulated to resist a current of
about 4/1000 of a volt as has been
proven with the aid of Lord Kelvin's
galvanometer, an instrument so sen
sitive and accurate that for the first
time it is now possible to measure
the strength of nerve currents.
It has been found that wherever
acute inflammation occurs the in
sulation of the nerves is broken
down, making it difficult, and often
Impossible, for nature to heal the
surrounding cells. Germs cannot
live in healthy tissue; it is only
through damaged cells that they
thrive and spread. Obviously there

TUESDAY EVENING.
her face, especially her nose, was
abundantly powdered.
Agnes remembered having heard
some one say that nowadays the
poses of a certain class of girls
looked like marshmallows. She
wondered why any creature should
spoil a pleasant face and torture
really pretty black hair as this
git 1 was doing.
"Where are you going to lunch
eon?" her new acquaintance asked
her.
"I dont know. I hadn't planned
about it," Agnes replied.
"Well, there's quite a good place
ncsv here where you can get a quick
iced cheap." Miss Rooney informed
her. "Come along with me, and
I'll show you."
The pair chatted pleasantly as
the> went down the street to a lunch
rcom which bore in great white
letters on its plate glass window
the information that it was "A
Select Restaurant for Ladies and
Gents."
"1 am not a bit hungry," Agnes
observed as the pair seated them
selves at one of the marble-topped
tables dotting the huge room. At
the other end of their table were
men. probably clerks from the
neighborhood, so intent upon shov
elling their food by the means of
knives into their mouths that they
wer*> entirely oblivious to anybody
else who was sitting near them.
All Explanation
"You're not hungry because you're
r.ew to your job." Miss Rooney re
marked wisely. "When you've been
at it awhile you'll get over being
nervous and will just stoke up like
the rest of us. What are you going
to have now?"
"A bun and a glass of mils," Ag
nes replied.
"Well, I want some coffee, sinkers
and a slice of apple pie." Miss
Roor.ev said. "I want something
that will stick to my ribs. You
can't work long on the kind of
flub-dub that you take."
Agnes laughed. "I'll try to, any
how." she rejoined.
"You've got a nice boss in many
ways," Annie informed her later as
they were hurrying back to the of
fice. Mr. Hale's awfully business
like and expects good, hard work,
but he's just and fair all the same.
Mr. Bainbridge isn't. I'm glad I'm
net his secretary, but only a plain
stenographer and typewriter, with
no business knowledge that makes
me have to do very much for him.
Gee. he can be ugly!"
"Is he cross to his secretary?"
Agnes asked.
"I guess he knows she wouldn't
stand for Annie giggled. "She's
awfully competent, but stands on
her rights. He knows if he jaws
hei she'll give back as good as she
gets She's not young and not good
locking. but she knows a lot."
As they entered the outer office
the stout man whom Agr.es had seen
in the morning came out through
the door bearing the name of "Has
btook Bainbridge." Miss Rooney
pir.ched her companion's arm.
"There." she whispered, "that's him
—Mr. Bainbridge—that stout chap."
"Oh. breathed Agnes, "is that Mr.
Bainbridge?"
Of course, then. It had not been
thlt man whose comment she had
overheard cn her arrival to-day. It
mt:st have been one of the office
boys who had given vent to that
impertinent expression of admira
tion.

treat inflammatory disease is to
quickly repair the damaged insula
ion and enable nature to restore the
diseased tissue to a healthy condi
tion. lon-o-lex Unguent does this.
lon-o-lex Unguent is not a drug.
It does not contain opiates or nar
cotics. Its action is entirely mechan
ical. Applied externally, it pene
trates the tissues and surrounds the
injured nerve sheaths with an in
sulating bath. Then the inflamma
tion subsides and nature quickly re
pairs the nerve lesion—you are well.
Don't suffer another minute, Just go
to H. C. Kennedy and get a large
jar of lon-o-lex Unguent, it costs lit
tle, use as directed and If you can
not say that it is the greatest means
ever devised for conquering inflam
mation wherever it exists, your
money will be cheerfully returned
without a question.
through carrying around a burden of
unsightly and unhealthy fat
spend as much time as you possibly
can in the open air; breathe deeply,
and get from any druggist a box of
oil of korein capsules; take one after
each meal and one before retiring at
night.
Weigh yourself every few days and
keep up the treatment until you are
down to normal. Oil of korein is ab
solutely harmless, is pleasant to take,
helps the digestion and even a few days*
treatment has been reported to show a
noticeable reduction in weight.—Adver

I crossed In her half a dozen times

courser' 6atd Mona.
"We don't have to worry eo much
about where he's hidden those valuable
papers. Unless all sign* fall we know
that what we've got to do is to get
that safe opened, by one of the two
men who can do It. If he'd turned his
stuff over to the purser for safe keep
ing I'd be a lot more dubious—because
a purser's strong room is the real
thing. And Shelley Is rather stupid—
and very faithful and conscientious. I
couldn't have done anything with him."
"Just what do you expect to do as It
Is?" asked Mona.
"One of you—and Miss Mary has
started, so that she'd better be tho
one—will have to make friends with
Shelley. The other will have to see
If there's a human side to X. There
must be, you know —he must be suscep
tible in some way."
"I don't like his looks," said Mona.
•"And I doubt very much whether he'll
see anything in me.' !
"You'll have to try," said Mary.
"Oh, I'll do that," said Mona.
Mona- lost no time In attempting to
arouse the interest of the mysterious
Mr. X. It seemed to be well understood
on board that Armstrong was not his
real name; that he was some import
ant. and probably, official personage,
who chose to travel under an assumed
name. He excited a good deal of curi
osity, but there was no attempt to in
trude upon his evident desire to be
alone.
On an American ship it might hava
been different. But on th<s vessel were
passengers much more accustomed to
the peculiar ways of an official caste.
Armstrong's privacy was rather point
edly respected. lie took no part in
the common life of the ship. He was
never in the smoking roc.m; the chance
games of cards, when tables were mado
up, on the spur of the moment for
bridge or poker, never claimed him.
He seemed to see no fun in throwing
rope quoits at a stick, and he passed
the devotees of ahuffleboard with a
tolerant smMe. He made no friends at
meals, for he was careful to take his
meals always after the passengers at
the table had returned to deck: this,
when he did not eat In the solitary
state of his own state rooms.
So Mona saw herself deprived of the
aid of all the pleasant cultivators of
acquaintanceship that so abound on a
ship. On the ocean the conventions are
relaxed; Introductions are dispensed
with more often than not. But though
plenty of the men among the passeng
ers found excuse for talking with her,
for joining In her wsuks about the
wind-swept decks, Mr. X held aloof.
If he noticed h'er a,t all he gave no
sign, and Mona, though she might have
managed It skilfully enough, was
afraid to resort to the crude strata
gem of boldly beginning the acquaint
ance herself.
She did as much as she thought was
safe. One day, when she saw that he
was coming toward her, she stood at
the rail, peering out over the waves.
Calculating her time to a nicety, she
dropped the case that contained her
marine glasses. They fell at the feet
of the self-styled Armstrong; In a mo
ment, cap In hand, he was bowing be
fore her
"Permit me," he said, handing her the
case.
"Oh thank you, so much!" said Mona,
prettily confused. "What a clumsy
thing* to do! I'm so afraid they're
broken—"
Gravely he took the case from her,
dre>w out the glasses, and Inspected
them.
"You are fortunate," he said. "They
are quite uninjured. I congratulate
you!"
He restored them to her then, and
she had, perforce, to look through
them at a distant, gull. And when she
turned, expecting to find him at her
side, he had gone. She bit her lip; a
certain chagrin at her failure to
arouse his interest, that was wholly
fersonal, sent the color Into her cheeks,
t was a feeling distinct from her dis
gust at the effect of his action upon
the more Important phase of her work,
but it promised to rankle. It wae a
long time since any man whom Mona
had deigned to notice had turned away
from her. She turned to go back to :
her chair, and saw X. regarding her. 1

WHEAT SHOWING
FINE PROSPECTS
If Weather Does Not Interfere
There Will Be an Abund
ance of Grain
Providing there is good weather for i
(the next ten days and farmers can I
get men to help them harvest their
j srain now dead ripe in the fields
Pennsylvania will come near having a
| record crop according to the facts and
figures men in the State Department
lof Agriculture. Estimates are beini{
| made from the reports turned in by
some 600 crop reporters and they
show a better condition for wheat and
I rye than for years and a marked im
provement over June 1, but that corn
and oats are falling behind.
Carefully worked out estimates on
the four big crops are: Wheat 26,-
(070,800 bushels against 24.928,000
bushels last year; rye 4.758,000 bu
shels against 4,672,000; oats 38,480,000
j bushels against 43,095.000, and corn
! 46,240,288 against 54,792,000.
' One factor in the Increase of the
jwheat will be the increase of 21,540
acres devoted to this grain, the total
area planted being 1,333,450 acres.
; The rye acreage is given as 266,000
! compared with 271,600 last year.
; There is a slight decline !n the acre
age for oats. The State reports show

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap
Soap should be used very carefully.
If you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use it
just ordinary mulslfied cocoanut oil
(which Is pure and greaseless), and Is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Sim
ply moisten the hair with water and
rub it in. It makes an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, which rinses out
easily, removing every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves the scalp soft, and the hair nne
and silky, bright, lustrous, Huffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulslfied cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
ber of the family for months.—Ad.
