OF INTEREST TO A GIRL AND A MAN A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van ie Water CHAPTER XL/I I (Copyright, 1916, Star Company) Miss Watson, the trained nurse, had come and was comfortably established in Miss Lucy Morley's room. Jennie O'Neill had gono home for the night. The few dinner dishes had been washed and put away. The little ilat was very quiet. Dr. Martin had looked in just after dinner to see how his patient was pro gressing and to give some orders to the nurse. When he had gone Agnes had come into the little living room, sitting down by the window, thought long and deeply of what lay before her, and of the obligations she must meet. Not only was there the numerous . incidentals to a serious illness, such as medicines, certain articles of food, etc., to be paid for during the next few weeks, but there was a trained nurse for, perhaps, a month to come, a consultation with some specialist, not to mention the fact that Miss Watson was another person to be fed. To one in comfortable circumstances (his last item might seem too trifling to be considered. To one whose in come is small, each additional person in the household is a perceptible drain upon one's resources. What did other people do she wond ered, when illnes assailed them? The Anmver The answer came to her at once. They went to the hospital. But with the answer came the remembrance of the anguished appeal in Miss Lucy's eyes only a few hours ago, when, seizing Agnes by tne hand, she had made her promise, that, no mattter how ill she was, she might "stay in her own home." "I cannot stand a hospital!" the ill woman had gasped. "I cannot!" "There, there, dear! Agnes had sooth ed. "Vou shall stay right here." And she must stay right here. But—where was the money to come from? The door bell rang softly—as if WOMEN SEEKING BAKER'S HEAD Demand War Secretary Resign For Slur on Men of 1776 Washington, D. C., Oct. 23. —A de mand for the "immediate resignation" of Newton D. Baker as Secretary of War and for the "repudiation" of Mr. Wilson of Mr. Baker's comparison of Ihe men who fought in the American Revolution with the "bandits" of Mex ico of to-day, was made here in a reso lution signed by officers of eleven women's patriotic societies with head quarters in the District of Columbia. The societies represented by their officers are: National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, t National Society of the Children of t the American Revolution, Woman's Relief Corps', Dames of the Loyal Legion, Clara Barton National Memorial As- 1 eociation, Ladies' Union Veteran Legion, Legion of American Women, United States Daughters of 1812, Daughters of the Founders and Patriots, Society of the Army of the Ten nessee, i National Lineal Society of the Span P CARTERSSSBSII HP ITTLE et More out of Life ||| [j; ■% jr |gi put More into Living!

Agnea hastened to the kitchen to turn the switch that open ed the front door. She caught her breath In Surprise, when opening the door of the apart ment, she came face to face with Mas brook Bainbridge. He panting from the upward climb of many stairs, but ' he held out his hand to her with a genial smile. A Great Surprlne "I know you are astonished," he said in a low tone, as one speaks In the house of Illness, "but I could not sleep until I knew how your aunt Is— If your anxiety is any less. It hurt me to think of you as worried and lone ly, with nobody to help you." "But I have someone to help me," she began, then added, "Won't you come in? We can talk better In the living room." She led the way stooping to light a gas-jet over the center table. As the flame flared up he Interposed. "Turn that lower," he advised. "It's a warm night and' the gas makes the room hot." She did as she was bid, turning the light down as it had been turned last night when Randolph Pickens and she had talked here. "Vou are very kind." she replied shy ly, "to take all this trouble." "Nonsense!" he exclaimed . "I came because I wanted to—and because I j want to know what I can do for you." "Nothing," she said. "1 can 'hardly credit that," he smiled. "Yes I will sit down and so must you— for' you are tired. Then I want you j to tell me the truth." ! He drew a chair up near the window ; for her, and pushed a footstool under I her feet. Then he seated himself in j front of her. "Now." he said, "I am going to ex ercise the prerogatives of a friend and demand that you answer all the ques tions I put to you. Are you ready?" To Be Continued I ish War. I Copies of the resolution are being ! forwarded, it is said, to every patriotic j society in the United States. The reso- lution adds to the demand that Presi ! dent Wilson repudiate this comparison jthe statement that "we cal! upon every ilojal and patriotic man and woman in America to repudiate this odious com parison and unjust and untrue attack upon our forefathers, the founders of 't he Republic and the Declaration of : Independence." Secretary Baker made his compari son of the soldiers of 1 776 with the Mexican soldiers of to-day in a political speech in Chicago on Octoberrl6. The resolution of the officers of patriotic societies quotes three paragraphs from his speech, one of which reads as fol lows: "Washington's soldiers in the march to Valley Forge stole everything they could lay their hands on." They stole the silver vessels of the churches and melted them up to buy dripks; they drove ministers of the gospel and preachers of churches out of their churches and out of the country. Whenever you hear somebody say they cannot understand the President's Mexican policies, tell them to read the Declaration of Independence and the Golden Rule " Basing their action upon these words, the officers of the patriotic so cieties attacked Mr. Baker in vitriolic language. His words are called "libel ous and false statement- '<kelv to have a most pernicious/int f rce'"' on the ideals of the youths o. tho country, and Mr. Baker is referred to as not a fit head for the army of the United States of America. ONE-PIECE FROCK IN NEWEST STYLE The Cut Shows Latest Develop ment of Design So Popular" This Season 0190 (With Basting Line and Added Seam Allcnvance) One-Piece Dress for Misses and Small Women, 16 and iS lflr years. This is one of the newest and smartest : of the one-piece frocks. At the front, it is cut all in one_giving long unbroken lines, | but at the sides and back the skirt is joined to the bodice and to effect that i joining, the skirt is lapped over the bodice and is finished with a band. The result is a most attractive and a novel one and the bands of trimming accentuate it. Here, that trimming is champagne colored broadcloth while the gabardine is chestnut brown in color, but this is a frock that can be made of any suitable wool material or of silk, and silk would be pretty trimmed with broadcloth or with velvet, or the material itself could be used embroidered with some little design and perhaps edged with bands of fur. For the 16 year size will be needed, yards of material 36 inches wide, 5J4 yards 44 or 54, with yard 50 inches wide for the trimming. The pattern No. 9190 is cut in sizes for 16 and 18 years. It will be mailed to sny address by the Fashion Department of this paper, on receipt of ten cents. Miss Fairfax Answers Queries IJOXT DO THIS DEAR MISS FAIRFFAX: I am 18, and have just finished high | school, I don't live with my parents. I have worked my way through the four years of high school, and have saved a little money besides, but have been ad vised by several of my teachers that it would be folly to attempt to work mv way through college without a little help. Now, a girl of 20. who makes over $25 a week, is in love with me. She has promised to support me through col lege, provided 1 marry her when 1 graduate. This girl is not all pretty, and I do not love her, but I promised if she held her part of the agreement I would hold mine. Now, Miss Fairfax, since I was a child of six it has been my main ambition to go through college, but I was suddenlv thrown upon my own resources when 1 graduated from public school. I deter- I mined to work myself through high school, but gave up all hope of ever going to college. BENJAMIN J. W. Not only have most of our country's greatest men been without a college education, but many of them have not even been high school graduates. Give up your dream of college, rather than acquire It at the price of your own self-respect and a girl's happiness. There will be no Joy for either of you in a marriage which is a bargain such as you contemplate. It Is a contemptible thing for a man to let a woman pay for his education, and the wrong vou would do this girl and yourself would not be compensated by a litle "book learning" Besides this, it is an extortionate price to pay for jour manhood.

Come —see for yourself. going about with a voung man of i twenty-three for a number of years. He told me he cared for me, but could not think of marriage on ac count of his parents, he being their only support. I have not heard from him for a year. I haven't really found anyone else I care for. By writing to him I could not get a sufficiently clear answer. Would it be proper for me to go to the city, where he is at pres ent, to the Y. W. C. A. and try to in terview him? I want it to come to some final point, because I have had chances and have refused on account of him. I've heard from friends that he still cares for me and in my heart I believe he does. IRENE. Since this young man has not com- [ municated with you for a year, I fancy j he is not considering marriage. And if you follow him to the town where he is working and demand a state ment of his intentions you will put yourself in a position where the world will be likely to criticise you and where he will lose all respect for you. There would be no particular harm In your writing to him If you are not too proud to humble yourself a lit tle by seeking him out. But I think the wisest thing you could do would be to resign yourself to the fact that he cannot have any active part In your life. TRY TO HEI.P HIM DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: I am nineteen and have been go ing around with a man of twenty-two for three years. I love him and I am sure my love Is reciprocated, but the thought that he Is a mere work ing man and at the present time has no position makes me feel at times that I do not care for him. Sometimes I tell him not to call, but later, I have to write to him to call again. If I would not do this I know that I would not enjoy life unless he Is with me, as I am heartbroken during the time he Is. away. On the other hand, he Is a very good man in every respect, but somehow cannot obtain a position and is at a loss what to do with himself. Kindly advise me what I should do. READER. If you really love this young man can you not give him the encourage ment of your faith and belief in him. and the incentive of having you to I work for so that he may forge on to- i ward success? Possibly the knowledge that you look down on him and con- | sider him a failure discourages him | and acts as a handicap. Either try ; to act as an Inspiration or take your self out of 'his life, for If you torment him by being present and yet unat tainable you will probably keep him i from attaining an honest, well-direct ed effort such as can not fail to lead to success. PERCHES OX POLE TO WORRY Chicago, Oct. 23.—T0 brood un disturbed over domestic complications, Theodore York mounted the top of a telegraph pole. He was found cling ing to the pole by Policeman Sack. "I'm despondent," said York, sadly, "I was married three days ago, I brought home my first week's salary Saturday. My wife paid $5 for a bot tle of perfume and ?6 for a pair of stockings. Then she left me, saying she could not possibly exist on my wages, S2O. I wanted to be alone. I thought I could worry at the top of the pole without being wounded."
