8 OF INTEREST T A GIRL AND A MAN A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van de Water CHAPTER xx Copyright, 1916, Star Company Although Agnes Morley had de-1 clared her desire to hear no more of j the topic that Annie Roonev had in troduced at luncheon, she could not keep her mind from turning to it frequently. What had been said seemed to com plicate her present position. It had been hard enough for her to maintain a calm exterior and to behave as if she had never been on terms of friendship with her employer's son. • When added to this was the knowl edge that Annie was hoping Agnes would try to win Philip's admiration, and that the Irish girl's keen eyes were both on her and the young man, it made matters worse. Moreover Philip himself was evl- j dently not prepared to behave as he would behave towards a person whom he had never met until he saw her in his father's office. Already he had spoken to Agnes with an impulsive j cordiality because he resented her em-! plover's brusque manner of addressing her. He had also shown by his ex-' pression of countenance that she was 1 more to him than an ordinary sten ographer. He had even, when she was about to leave the office at the end of her first day there, started from his chair as if to speak to her. She had seen this from the corner of her eye as she passed his desk. Perhaps her bearing had warned. him that he must remain where he 1 was; perhaps he knew by her haste 1 that his company would be unwel- ' come. This kind of thing could not go on. She and Phil must have a talk and decide what his future con duct was to be. If the lad had told his father be forehand that he knew Agnes It would ' not have been *o embarrassing now. ' Yet the fact that he had not admitted that she was his friend, that she had not intimated to her employer that she knew his son. had put the young cpu ple in an awkward predicament. Were Philip to tell his father the truth at this juncture the older man's suspicions would immediately be\ aroused because of his and the girl's silence at the time that she acceptd the position in Mr. Hale's office. His Point of View Agnes brooded over the conditions' all the evening. She recalled with a whimsical smile the old lines: "What a tangled web we weave Wen first we practice to deceive.'' Yet Philip had not thought of his silence as deceit, but simply as dis cretion. And when she discovered that he had kept the truth from his father there was nothing for her to do j but to follow his lead. Philip's second day at the office was not so bad. for Mr. Hale kept his son on the street, attending to var ious affairs for him. When. at a lit tle after nine, he and his lather en- ' tered the office together. Agnes look ed up with a bow and a "Good morn ing!" that included both men. The older of the pair had handed the younger some bills he wished col- i lected and a moment later the senior member of the firm and his secretary ' were alone. She was out at luncheon when Philip returned to the office and. i if he came in late in the afternoon, it I &kctect i/cuteeM!

Philip Hale himself was not pleased : with the state ot affairs. Where was the pleasure in being close to the girl lie loved if he were not allowed to speak with her? Yet for the first few days of his occupancy of his new posi tion. she persistently avoided him, not 1 even glancing in his direction. His mother had made several en gagements for him. inviting friends to her home and demanding his pres ence, so that his evenings were not his own. Therefore, it was well on to ] wards the end o fthe week and he had had no chance for a word alone with Agnes. It was on Saturday noon that he reached a sudden conclusion. He would see Agnes the following even j ing unless she had some other plan. ; There was no telephone in her little ' apartment. He must make an ap ; pointment with her here and now. But when he paused at the door of his father's office, Mr. Hale looked up ! with a slight frown of annoyance, and t a sharp—"What is it?" "Nothing, sir. if you are busy," ! Philip hastened to reply. . | "Can't you see I'm busy?" Mr. Hale retorted. "Don't wait for me if you're in a hurry to go home." A Tell Talc Note "I'm in no hurry." Phil assured him. "Excuse me for disturbing you." The office force left at noon dur ing the summer months. Therefore unless he scribbled some message to > Agnes she would get away without his 1 making an engagement with her. For. | reckless as he was. he would not ven ! ture to go in and speak to her now in the presence of his father. Well, he must write her a note. That was all I that he could do. He would tell Joe | to take it in to her quietly. I Agnes was working industriously at . the letters that had been dictated to ' her this morning. It was time for her 1 to be going home, but she had volun teered to stay and finish the work given her by Mr. Hale. Her employer himself was signing such letters as were already done. Suddenly through the open door Joe crept in noiselessly and handed Agnes ■ a letter. She looked at it in surprise. ; then, as she saw Philip's handwriting, glanced apprehensively at Mr. Hale, ; but he did not appear conscious of the , intrusion. Hastily opening the envelope, she scanned the contents. They were but a few words, but they brought the | blood to her cheeks. "I must see you to-morrow night. ; May I.? Send answer by Joe, Phil." Joe stood waiting, his curious eyes on her face. She picked up a pencil, started to write, then glancing again •at her employer, saw that he was ! watching her. The silence of her ma chine had attracted his attention. "There is n<s answer," she stammer ed to Joe. I "Mr. Phil said there would be." he whispered, but loudly enough for Mr. Hale to hear. "There is none:" she repeated sharply. As the boy turned away, she bent again over her machine, her heart beating fast as she appreciated that { Mr. Hale must know that his son had sent her a message. She felt suddenlv I angry at Phil.

McCANN The physicians of R . prior to an indignation meeting held by the real ••state operators and property own ers of the town, were indignant over the discovery that every butcher shop of the community was secretaly using anhydrous sodium sulphite. Their published state - i ments, made before the develop ment of an embarrassing situation, Indicates the honest attitude of the entire medical profession toward the employment of chemical food pres ervatives of any kind. The finding of doped meat intended for the diet of a child In one of the R butcher shops was a sad shock to Dr. X . member of the Board of Health of R . He denounced the outrage In terms that permitted no mistake concerning his meaning. The finding of anhydrous sodium sulphite In the shops of two well known retail butchers of R . ac companied by the accusations of these gentlemen that all the other butchers of R were also using sodium sulphite, produced magical results. A third shop v;as Invaded. "No. we have no preservaline here. We believe its use is illegal. We can sell you siourine and sapollo from our grocery department, but there Is no such thing here as preservaline. We don t use It." Fiery meat was on exhibition. We left the establishment and re turned in an hour accompanied by Health Officer G . "Now. Mr. Butcher, you didn't have any preservaline when we were here an hour ago. Perhaps you have found some since." No answer. "Come on. Produce!" "I told you we had none of that ttuff here." "So much the worse for you. I'n less you produce the stuff in two min utes we shall look for It ourselves and you muft take the consequences." "Well, we only have a little bit." He turned from the shop into the hall. We followed him. Out of one hall at right angles he went into another. Mr. Butcher fin ally halted In a dingy corner under the stairs. He pulled out an old coat, stuck hia hand into the darkness and CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years \1 vavs bears ~ Jt.aaMn <4 brought forth a box of preservaline. We visited establishment Xo. 4. "Nothing doing in this place on pre servaline," said everybody in the shop. "You won't find that dope here." Under a counter in the rear of the room we located a product labeled "Freez-Em," made by B. Heller & Co., Chicago. On the label were these words, "The active principle of 'Freez-Em' is a gas which is only gi\en off when the pow der becomes damp. This can be ad \ antageously in many ways." "Yes, you got- the stuff, all right; but we never use it." "What is this little glass shaker with the perforated top sitting so snugly beside the 'Freez-Em'?" "I don't know." Examination of the contents of the little glass shaker revealed the pres ence of anhydrous sodium sulphite.. . "You have no use for this stuff in this place?" "No." "Then you do not object If we take it away?" "Certainly not: you can have it. Wrap it up for thi gentlemen." A chemical analysis made by Pro fessor George Ferguson of Columbia University confirmed Ihe nature of i the stuff. We entered establishment No. 5. "No, we do not use, preservaline. Come right with me into the' icebox and see for yourself." The butcher took us all over the place. After such portions of the scenery had been reviewed as seemed In the judgment of Mr. Butcher fitting to be reviewed, we decided to review the sections of establishment No. 5 which the butcher somehow or other forgot to Include in serving as guide. A little artificial illumination and a trip into a dark hole resulted in the discovery of a box labeled "XXX Enterprise Chemical Preservative," also a tin shaker. "What are these rare objects which we have found In the dark'.'" "I don't know. We never use those things. We don't know how they got here. We certainly do not employ chemicals in this shop. "May we take the stuff with us?" "Yes, take It away." Again anhydrous sodium sulphite was located in an establishment whose owner was "utterly Innocent of the meaning of preservaline." Phyrtcians were immediately Inter viewed. Without exception all of (hem denounced In bitter terms the butchers in whose shops the stuff was found. "I did not know." said Dr. C. M. 8., "that apy such situation would be found in R . What I cannot understand Is how the manufacturer of this preservaline. containing anhy drous sodium sulphite. Is tolerated in New York City when the stuff is .opealy and specifically prepared and AUGUST 30, 1916. advertised for use in the making of food products. "We shall certainly put an end to the situation immediately, but it will not do for the exposure to be con fined to R . Every town and city of the State will have to take its own action, and doubtless great good in behalf of the health of the people will result from the exposure here." Dr. C. D.

No physician in the community ever dreamed that any such drug has ever been used in preparing meats here.
