14 OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN | A GIRL AND A MAN A New and Vital Romance of City Life J by Virginia Terhune Van 4e Water CHAPTEft XXXI (Copyright, 1916, by Star Company.) Agnes Morley proved th<? truth of the statement that a woman is incon nistent by being painfully depressed as she thought over her refusal of Randolph Pickens. In faet she even shed a few tears over his faded sweet peas, then tried to laugh to her own folly. But tlie laugh stuck in her throat. She had not the heart to throw the blossoms away, but she did not want to put them where she need see them. So, taktjig them into her aunt's room, she placed them in a glass of water. "Toil like sweet peas,' she explain ed. "So I am going to leave these in here." "Has your caller gone already?" Miss Morley asked in surprise. She was un dressed, and her slight form looked thinner than ever in her scanty night gown. * es —he has gone." Agnes replied brief.v. "Good-night:" She did not linger to explain after she had kissed her aunt and seen her safely in bed. She was not the kind of girl who talked to other women of her conquest nor of the devotion of any Aan for her. She had a sense of honor that forbade such conti dences. She was glad to be alone to think her own thoughts, yet the more she thought the more depressed did she become. Turning out the light in the little parlor, she seated herself by the open window and reviewed the hap penings of the past hours. Her heart smote her as she mused • on poor Mr. Pickens. Had he been the only man in the world she could not have accepted his attentions. Even now she giggled softly as she recalled his garb and manner. But the giggle ! ended in a sound Aery much like a sob i as she recalled his wistful eyes. He. at least, had shown hjs fondness for her. There was a vague kind of com fort in the recollection. She would probably never see him again Well, she wished him the happiness he de served with some woman who could are for him. She Thinks of Philip Then she began once more to think of Philip. Added to her chagrin at his recent behavior was th; pain of humiliation at the mistake she had made in speaking to him about those flowers tijis morning. His manner had been brusque, unlike his former way I of replying to any question of hers. " ! She could not know that poos Phil's astonishment at her deigning to ad dress him had beeh so great, and the throb of his heart so sudden, that he hardly knew what he was saying. And then, when he realized what she had asked, she was gone without even a backward glance in spite of his ex clamation of entreaty. He. on his part was thinking that she had snubbed him and flouted him by turning awav from his appeal. Thus it was that both of these young people nursed their sense of grievance towards each other. And all the while their hearts were aching. j Why Put Up With Interrupted Telephone Service? On the old manual exchange system, with all other tele phone users, you have found busy hours of the day and dead hours of the night yhen your telephone service was exception ally slow. You probably have "cussed" the operator, but it really isn t her fault. It s the fault of the system. You must genially "wait your turn," you know, with the manual telephone to have your call handled. USE THE AUTOMATIC With an Automatic Telephone in your home or place of business there is no interrupted service. Anytime, all the time, you get your number in exactly six seconds, with "just a twist of the wrist." With an Automatic, there are no broken connections, no cut-in conversations, no listening-in, no tiresome waiting. With an Automatic, you get accurate, secret, instant tele phone service. See it work at the Automatic Exhibit, 308 Market street, and there'll be but one answer—you will "Use The Dial" Cumberland Valley Telephone Company of Pa.

Miss Lucy, who had had a ' restless night—for she was far from well these days—did the same. So in spite of the girl's utmost haste, she ' did not reach the office of Hale and Bainbridge until twenty minutes past nine. The day was warm nnd muggy and her employer was not in a good humor. He looked up with a frown as she entered. "You are late Miss Morley." he re marked sharply. "I have been hear for twenty-five minutes. I wish you would be more prompt." ! "I am sorry " she apologized. "I overslept. It will r.ot happen again." "I am sure I hope it will not." he re turned. She kept back the retort she longed to utter. She was in the wrong she told herself, and the man had a right to be displeased with her. Yet, had she been his equal he would not have re proved her in that tone. Nor, had she been his son's equal, would Philip have treated her with the cool indifference that he had assumed lately. "I am ready," was all she said as she took up her pad and pencil. It was in the middle of the morning when Philip Hale came in to his father's office. Father nnd Son Go Out Agnes did not raise her eyes from the machine she heard the two men : conversing in low tones, but she con tinued typing. At last her employer spoke her name. "Miss Morley" he said, "I am going iout and will not be back until after I three o'clock. You will have those letters done by the time I return please." "Yes. sir" she answered. "I hope to have them finished before I go to lun ) cheon." Together father and son started from the room. At the door the older man j paused. "Oh. Phil," he said "I left a parcel of papers there on my desk. Fetch them, will you? I will stop and speak to Bainbridge before I go out. I will meet you at the door." He went on and Philip Hale came back into the room. Still the girl kept on with her typing. He took a step towatds her. but as she did not glance towards him, turned to the desk got the . papers in question and went quickly from the room. Not until she heard the outer door I close behind the pair did Agnes pause.' (Then she spoke in a whisper to her self. "He never said a word to me—not a word. It is evident he wishes me to understand my place. He need not fear it's a wonder his father left him alone for a minute—even though the door was wide open. "But he's safe. I'll keep in my place. What seemed like freindship was onlv a passing whim of Phil's, which he wishes to forget. And I'll t£.ke pains to show him that I myself do not care to remember." Then she resumed her rapid typing. i (TO BE CONTINUED) FLOUNCE PUT ON WITH SCALLOPS Five-Gored Petticoat Given a Stylish Touch by Dainty l ; Lace Ruffle 1 I | By 8894 (R't'fA Basting Line and Added Seem Allowance) Dressing Jacket, 34 to 44 bust. 8620 P ive Gored Petticoat, 24 to 34 waist.

MORE RHEUMATISM i THAN EVER BEFORE Clergymen, lawyers, Brokers, Me chanics and Merchants Stricken Our old friend Rheumatiz is having i his inning this year, and few words of caution from one who knows all about | it may not be amiss. Wear rubbers in damp weather; keep your feet dry; drink plenty of lemonadt, and avoid strong alcoholic t drinks. If rheumatism gets you. or sciatica, I and you have sharp twinges, gnawing pain or swollen joints or muscles, you can get rid of all agony in just a few ! days by taking one-half teaspoonful of I Rlieuma once a day. All druggists know about Rheuma; It's harmless, yet powerful: cheap, yet 1 sure, and a 50-cent bottle will last a long time. Ask H. C. Kennedy or any druggist. PI WHEN BACK HURTS OR KIDNEYS BOTHER Says Uric Acid in meat clogs Kidneys and irritates Bladder. A glass of Salts is harmless way to flush Kidneys, says authority. If you must have your meat every day, e*t it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted i authority who tells us that meat forms ! uric acid which almost paralyzes the j kidneys in their efforts to expel it I from the glood. They become slug- Igish and weaken, then you suffer with I a dull misery in the kidney region, ; sharp pains in the back or sick head | ache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weath er is bad you have rheumatic twinges. 1 The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi- I ment, the channels often get sore and I irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. 1 To neutralize these irritating acids, 1 to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar macy here; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending blad der weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure, and makes a delightful efferves cent lithia-water drink.

We can hardly realize that of all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent, or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year 5 thirty seven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma jority of these precious lives, Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine. They arc, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever. Letters from Prominent Physicians _ addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher. 1 J A. F.
