8 WOMEWS I I A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life j by Virginia Terhune Van Water CHAPTER XXXVIIT Copyright, 1916, Star Company. When Asrnes told her aunt good night on the evening that Hasbrook Bainbridgo's roses arrived, Miss Mor ley recollected something. "Did you see the letter I put on the mantel in the sitting room?" she ask ed suddenly. "What letter T" Agnes questioned. "Oh, dear—l'm so sorry to have for gotten to mention It!" Miss Lucy apol ogized. "It came for you this after noon." "All right," Agnes said. She put out her aunt's light and went back into the front room. She was curious to know from whom the epistle was. Letters were not a dally occurrence with her. She had, for a moment, a secret hope that thl6 one might be from Philip Hale, but a glance at the envelope showed her the Spencerian handwriting of Randolph Pickens! It seemed a strange coincidence that withnhis second gift of roses near her, Bhe should receive a messago from her discarded suitor. She thought swiftly of his poor little bunch of sweetpeas. "Dear Miss Morley," Randolph wrote, "while I understand the wisdom of your kindly-expressed decision on the occasion of my last call upon you, I am now presuming to take the liberty to ask if you will be so gracious as to forget the subject-matter of our last conversation and allow me to come to seo you occasionally as a friend. I promise not to trespass too frequently tipon your goodness if you condescend to grant my request. "You have always been an inspir ation to me. I am a lonely man, and it would cast a ray of light across my pathway could I have the honor of our friendship. Do I presume past par don? Always faithfully your humble servant—Randolph Pickens." "Poor chap!" Agnes half sighed, half smiled. Her own worries made her very compassionate. "Of course he may come to see me. Ido not be lieve that he could ever again sum mon courage to make the mistake of talking affection to me. I am sorry for him. It was pitiful—his offering me those sweetpeas while those great flaming roses were here on the table." Her remembrance of the incident was distinct as she answered Mr. Pick ens' letter. Certainly you may regard me as your friend," she wrote, "and If it will give you any pleasure or lessen your loneliness to come to see me some times, I will be glad to have you come." "But I hope he will not come too often." she mused as she laid the let ter where she would be sure to see it and take it out to be posted to-mor row morning. Returning to the sitting room, she bent over the roses. They were very beautiful, yet her heart beat no faster as she thought who had sent them. But she could not forget that Mr. Bainbridge was very kind to her, and that, just now, but for him, her life would be colorless. m — m • A Sure Way to End Dandruff There Is cno sure way that has never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply It at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most If not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will lind all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your lialr will be Huffy, lustrous, glos sy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.—Advertisement GUT OUT MEATS IF KIEYS ARE TROUBLING YOU Uric Acid in meat excites Kid neys and Irritates the Bladder.

We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is tilled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble.

THURSDAY EVENING, With this reflection uppermost, she went downtown the following day. She had been In the office for a half hour before Mr. Bainbridge entered. "Good morning!" he greeted her cheerily. "And how is your aunt to day? Better, I hope." "She had a very comfortable night." the girl said, then added hastily, "I want to thank you. Mr. Bainbridge, for the roses you sent me. They are wonderful. And so were the first you sent. I did not suspect"—with a little laugh of embarrassment —"that those others were from you, or I would have thanked you for them," "Ah? Who did you suppose sent them?" he queried teaslngly. She flushed as she remembered that she had actually fancied they had come from Philip Kale. "I—l—l do not know—l had no way of knowing," she stammered. "There was no card with them." "No," he said, "I put none Into the box, for I was a bit afraid you might disapprove of my sending you even a trifling remembrance. I am glad you did not know the fiower3 came from me." • Why?" Bainbridge Proposes "Because," he explained, "I saw that you had presented the fair Miss Rooney with some of them. I hope that, had you known they were from mo, you would not have given any of them away. Am I very presumptu ous?" He drew nearer as If he would take her hand. She felt vaguely un comfortable and withdrew a little. "I don't know," she said. "Per haps I would have done so, no mat ter who gave the roses to me." "I hope not," he repeated softly, his eyes fixed steadily on hers. "I like to think that you would value my gifts too much to give them to another girl. You see, child, I am getting to bank upon your regard for me." She gazed back at him. startled. She had never seen just that expres sion in his eyes before. "You have been a very good friend to me," she said hastily. His manner puzzled her. Should she resent It? She recollected that slfi had made herself ridiculous once by resenting what he had intended as no offence. Ho saw her embarrass ment now and laughed indulgently. "Am I worrying you, little girl?" he said. "Well, I won't then. Only—l am always ready t#> be your very true friend." "Thank you," she murmured, draw ing her breath more freely. Catching her hand in his, he lifted it quickly to his lips. "You are a desx child!" he ex claimed. Then, with a swift change of manner, he turned to his desk. "It is getting late," he said. "Are you ready to begin work?" All at once he was the business man again—the man for whom she had been working 'these past days. Yes, it would have been foolish for her to act as if she were afraid of him! (To Be Continued.)

HARRISBURQ ftflgjjfiif TELEGRAPH THE SONG He was Just a street musician, and he played a simple song In the softness of the twilight as the shadows flickered long; But a boy who hurried past him stop ped to listen to his play, And a girl whose feet had faltered found the grace to pause and pray. He was jjust a street musician, but he pointed out the way. \ Yes, the song was very simple, but the boy saw mountains green, An da shining, thread-like river, and a tiny, homelike scene; Saw a farmhouse, stained by weather, and he knew the door was wide. And he knew that love was waiting Just across the sill inside; And he murmured softly, "Mother.." and his heart within him cried. And the girl remembered dimly In the land of long ago, How she knelt beside her window and had watched the sunset glow Out across the golden cornfields when her heart was free from sin, When she had not known the city with its fever and its din — And her tears were near the surface as she breathed, "I'll fight —and win!" He was Just a street musician, and he played a simple song: But it echoed through the twilight as the shadows flickered long. And it hovered o'er the city, pure and light as silver foam. And it touched two hearts that wan dered, and It told them not to roam— He was Just a street musician, and his song was 'Home, Sweet Home." —Margaret E. Sangster, Jr., in The Christian Herald.

Damp clothing- is not to be especially feared if it Is changed before a chill takes place. Hot, un ventilated rooms make an Ideal breeding ground for germs. It is be cause cold weather drives ua into our heated, stuffy houses that the im pure, air-borne diseases such as bronchitis, influenza, pneumonia, scar let fever, chickenpox—are most pre valent in late winter and early Spring, and drop almost out of sight in July and August, when fresh air circulates through the house night and day. It is evident then that the first step in avoiding sore throat is to ventilate thoroughly and to avoid disease germs. In spite of all we can do, we are sure to come in contact with some bacteria. If the vitality and resist ance of the individual are low, these find fertile soil. Poorly oxygenated blood, flabby flesh, and faulty diges tion, all increase susceptibility to in fection. So build up resistance by plain, wholesome food and frequent bathing.

Whenever there are white or yellow patches in the throat, they should be carefully watched. Sometimes these appear to be ulcers and are in reality little plugs of fibrinous exudate, in flammatory matter and bacteria, which can be pressed out and wiped away with a swab. The cause of throat trouble may be adenoids, indigestion, improper func-1 tioning of the system, lack of oxygen, or the taking in of tcerms from the ■ outside.
