OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van *Ve Water CHAPTER XLdt (Copyright, 1916, Star Company) Agnes Morley stood facing Dr. Mar tin. her cheeks pale, her eyes anxious. The pair had Just come out of Miss Lucy's bedroom, where they had left the invalid in a light slumber follow ing the alarming attack which had caused the physician to summon the niece from downtown. The man closed the living room door before speaking. Jennie had been ordered to listen for Miss Lucy's lightest call. "As 1 told you a few minutes ago." Dr. Martin said, "this seizure is the worst, by far, that your aunt has had. I am afraid there may bo more trouble than I thought, that there may be some cause which I had not suspected for these attacks. However, that is a matter that can only be ascertained by observation and, perhaps a little later, by a consultation. Meanwhile, the pa tient must have skilled care. I did not think she needed it at first, Now I know she does." "Jennie O'Neill," began Agnes. But the doctor interrupted her. "Jennie is absolutely inadequate at this Juncture," he asserted brusquely. "She can give certain medicines if told to; she can wait on the patient whan nothing un foreseen occurs; she can do house work satisfactorily, I suppose. But a trained nurse is needed here." "A trained nurse!" Agnes re peated aghast. "Oh, Dr. Martin you know I am willing to do all that, is possible but would It not be cheaper for me to stay at home and take care of my aunt?" "You couln't do it!" was the stern reply. "She should have a trained nurse as I Just said. It may be she will only need one *or a couple of weeks long enough for us to find out Just what's wrong. But there must be someone who can take the pulse and temperature and watch certain nymptoms, as only a professional can. You could not do this. Besides—where would another Job come from were you to give yours up? And who the dickens would support you?" A Trained Nurse She was silenced for a minute, while she appreciated the force of every word he uttered. Yes, Aunt Lucy should have a trained nurse. She must have the best that could be procured. But wiiat about the expense? Where was the money to come from for all this? It was hard enough to pay Jennre's wages and help with tjie rent, and buy the supplies for the small house hold. "I suppose you are worrying about the cost of the tnmg, aren't you?" Dr. Martin broke in upon her musings. "Well it can't be helped, and it wont be for long. Surely your aunt has a little some thing laid aside agalQst her old age—hasn't she?" Pride for her aunt, pride on her own acount, kept Agnes from telling him of the pitiful state of the family exchequer. "Never mind about the cost!" she parried. "I want to know about the nurse. Do you engage her for us?" "Surely. She will come this after noon." "And Jennie? Shall I let her go?" "Certainly not! Have her come every day as she has been doing. A nurse Is not a machine and she must take her rest nd her hours oft. Jennie will have to be with Miss Mor ley at such times except when you are at home. Moreover, a nurse is not supposed to do any housework be yond caring for the patient's room." "I see," murmured Agnes. She saw only too plainly that she was facing a problem that well nigh baffled her. But she would not confess it to the physician who stood eyeing her so keenly. "Here is a prescription I want to have filled," Dr. Martin went on. "You can take it out yourself, or stay with the patient while Jennie takes it out for you. But get it at once. I may not be able to secure the nurse I want before late in the afternoon. You can spend the rest of the day at home —can't you? I mean, don't you suppose you can be spared from the office Just for this afternoon? What do you think about it?" She Telephones "Perhaps I can," she said. "But I would rather make sure by tele phoning and asking permission. I will do this at once, if you think best." "All right that's a good idea," the physician agreed. "Your aunt will sleep for the next hour or two, and she Is safe for that little while with Jennie." Agnes feared to make a nuisance of herself by going upstairs to use her neighbor's telephone too often, so now she went to the drug store, taking the prescription with her, and called up the office, asking for Mr. Bainbridge. As soon as he heard her voice he inquired how her aunt was. "More comfortable Just now," Agnes told him. "But she has been and still is very 111. I was going to ask you if" She hesitated, disliking to make a request that seemed suddenly very bold to her. "If you can be spared for the rest of the day?" Hasbrook Bain bridge finished the sentence for her. "Surely you can. Valuable as you are here, we will get along with out you somehow. Remember, if you come down to-day you will be disobeying my orders. I wish I could help you, child!" "Thank you!" she murmured. His kind tone shook her self - con trol. "But there's nothing you can do." "I can, at all events, think of you and hope for the best," he assured her. Again she thanked him. then hung up the receiver and went back home. She was glad that Miss Lucy called upon her for numerous atten tions for the next few hours, for these left her little time to think, and she knew there was a question she must soon answer for herself. It was the question as to where the money was coming from to meet all these new expenses. (To Be Continued). Motorless Monoplane Invented by Maine Man Boston, Oct. 20. A motorless monoplane capable of reaching a height of twelve miles, out of range of gunfire, is the proposition that A. V. Wilson, of Bar Harbor, Me., will soon place before the National Advisory Board of Aviation. Mr. Wilson's aeroplane has been patented and he has been working for the last five years to solve the problem of keeping the aviator alive at that height and at a temperture of from 120 to 210 degrees below zero. The desired warmth, he says, can be se cured by a solution of one pound of lime and eight ouncee of water. This warmth will prevent a hydrogen tank from freezing, ho says, and will, there fore, provide the necessary air for the] aviator. The principle of Mr. Wilson's plane is to counteract gravity by turning the planes. On calm days, he says, the piano would have to be shot Into air with a catapult. Once In flight, how ever. he clßims that he can stay in the air Indefinitely. $50,000 Heart Salve Asked From Steel Maker Pittsburgh, Pa.. Oct. 20. —"I am bitterly disappointed and humiliated. Led to believe that my days of work were over, that I had Boeured a home, comfort* and career for tho rest of my life, it has been a shock to discov er that I wan mistaken, and I could only take the course which I have taken," to-day said Miss Susan Ches nier, 24, regarding the breach of promise suit she filedd against Victor Gelbel. a steel manufacturer, 80, ask ing $50,000,000 damages for her wounded feelings. Miss Cheamer is a pretty blonde, quiet in manner, but very determined In her resolve to obtain some redress for her wounded feelings. "All Miss Chesmer says is false," Gelbel said to-day regarding the case filed against him. "I did not promise to marry her, I will be very glad to have the real truth of the matter known."

She nad a diet, took exercise, and lost forty-eight pounds. The November Woman's Home Companion prints her own story. She says: "I possessed one hundred and ninety-three and one-half pounds of solid fat, and I looked old, though, counting years, I wasn't; but I com pared unfavorably with most women I knew to be of greater age, but less fat. I stood up, discarded my blanket and critically surveyed myself. Oh, the rolls and rolls of nothing but fat! My frame was blanketed In it! Up holstered in it! "I said to myself, "You monster! You storehouse of fat! You are the very worst-looking object in your own home. If you owned any artlclo of furniture built on your clumsy out lines you'd pay someone to cart it away where you couldn't look at it! You've committed suetcide! You're about as graceful as a steam roller, you are!' So I mentally arraigned my reflection, and sobbed myself limp. "Meanwhile, enter nurse. 'Why this sudden shower?' she asked playfully. I sobbed out my disgust, my loathing, my realization of my grossness, know ing all the while a fat woman, even in grief, is half comedy; yet, too, she is a monumental tragedy. "My nurse, to whom I owe so much, came and sat beside me. 'Oh, my dear, I am so glad You have touched my pet subject—fat women! In my profession I see so much more | to pity than just sickness. That is usually but temporary. To me the sight of a great fat woman, absolutely satisfied with hersolf, indulgent, slav ish to food—She is an wnject of pity, a tragic figure. She Is building a wall about herself of solid fat, that shuts out life! Yet she is serenely uncon scious of it! It was Balzac, whose in timate knowledge of women Is almost surpassing belief, who said, "Women after the ago of thirty-six begin to show signs of physical deterioration due to careless living: their step loses Its lissomeness, almost imperceptibly the heavier outlines envelop them, ageing, detroying; yet they smile, while just ahead Monsieur Adipose lies in wait to suffocate Symmetry!" My dear this may not be verbatim, but it is tho gist of his great warning to women!' " Advice to the Lovelorn YOU OWE HER THE TRUTH DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: A little over a year ago I made the acquaintance of a young lady working In the same law office with me. At our first meeting I took a fancy to her. and after several weeks begged to call at her home. ?he was at first reluctant In granting: the permission. Ever since I have seen her at least once a week. I thought I loved her at first, and per sisted In my call. In the meantime the girl had learned to love me so Intensely that she finds herself at present madly In love. I, on the other hand, though I have found her to be exceedingly fine of character, have constantly lost that first feeling of passionate love for her, and would gladly cease calling:, but can't do so. I can't find any excuse to give the young lady for terminating our meetings. JAMES N. Unless you talk to thlw girl with f-ankness equal to that which you have shown in writing to me you are doing her the greatest Injustice In the world. Of course, you have not treated her l fairly, and you seem rather fickle and not stable and worthy in your emo , tlonal dualities. Now, don't add cow ardice and a shrinking of your manifest duty to what looks like a case of trifling with the girl's feeling^, Are your children up to this standard? There is nothing that tells so accurately—so inevitably—how well a child is thriving—what its physical condition is —as its weight. Compare the weights of your children with this table. It is from the work of the greatest American authority on the care and feeding of children. Dr. L. Emmctt Holt's Standard Weights of Children Boys Girls 1 year of age - - - "0 pounds 1 year of age ... 20 pounds 2"""---26" 2 " " - - - 25 3 "" " ... 30 " 3 ... 29 " 4"""---35" 4 " " " - - - 34 5 "" " ... 41 " 5 " " " ... 39 6"""---45"6 " " " - - - 41 " 7 " " " ... 49 " 7 47 8"""---54" 8 " " " - - - 52 9 "" " ... 60 " g " " " ... 57 10 " " " - - - 66 " 10 ' . - - 63 " 11 ... 72 " 11 ... 70 12 " / " " ... 80 " 12 " " " - . . 81 13 " " " ... 89 " 13 " " " ... 91 14 " " " - - . 98 " 14 " " " - . - 100 " If your children do not come up to this standard—and you ask your doctor about it—the first thing he will ask you is "What do you give them to eat?" Every child should have delicious, sustaining, tissue-building, energy-giving, digestible food. The food which combines these in the highest degree—the food you should get for tomorrow's breakfast is Cream of Barley—buy it from your grocer today. Cream of Barley 'That Blush Upon the Cheek' Will Cost Milady More Los Angelea, Cal., Oct. 20. Girls, prepare yourselves for a shock. Cosmetics are going up again. Where yesterday the perfumed Hp stick, the dainty eyebrow pencil, the delicate rouges and powders so neces sary according to the latest decrees of Dame Fashion, could be bought reasonably, to-morrow' they will soar In price in a most dizzy fashion. Fifteen per cent, raise Is expected within the week. And this also In cludes perfumes, toilet waters and scented oils of all klndß. Two years ago this sudden raise In price, Just after the war, did not occa sion the consternation that it will cause to-day. For two years ago cos metics were not the necessary part of every woman's life that they are now. But Fashion's edicts, which have in troduced flowing veils, brilliant colors and many furs, have made makeup a part of every woman's toilet. So now this raise in price will prove a tragedy. According to tho experts. It Is tho war in Europe that is again occasion ing these added figures on the little pink boxes and decorated bottles. Dyes and Ingredients necessary to make them, and the formulas used are not to be had In America, and are difficult to get from Europe. The only way to avoid this actas trophe la to lay In a stock ahead, and many have doue so.
