16 OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van ,r k' Water CHAPTER LII (Copyright, 1916, Star Company.) Agnes Morley found herself typing with more ease than usual this even ing. Not only was her employer kind and courteous, encouraging her by his approval, but her mind seemed unusually clear. Mentally she grasp ed difficult words and phrases from the old English book with remarkable facility. • She did not stop to look Into the rea son for all this. Had she done so she might have realized that when the stomach Is empty the mind sometimes ■works quickly, and that the cup of strong black coffee taken just before leaving home was a stimulant to her jaded nerves. Nor did she know that a reaction from stimulated energy Is always to be expected. Therefore, when, at 10 o'clock, she finished the last page of the book be fore her, she was surprised to find her self fagged and faint "You have done wonders!" Bain brldgre exclaimed. "Now you must take an easy chair and rest for a few minutes." She looked at him gratefully. "Thank you," she said. "I am tired." "I hope you are hungry also," he ventured. "Why?" "Are you hungry?" he persisted. She laughed. "Yes. I am," she ad mitted. "Now answer my question." "I told Calvin to order the cook to get all Ingredients of a good chafing dish preparation ready before he went home to-night," he explained. "And I wanted you to bring a good appetite to It." Later, as he seated her at the round table in the dining room and she smelt the aroma of the lobster a la Newburg he was preparing, she knew that she was even more hungry than she had supposed. She did not say this until Calvin, who stood by his master, had "been dismissed for the night. The Servant Dismissed "Put the punch right here by me," Bainbriage told the man. "Then you can go." "Both my eervants sleep out," the master explained when Calvin had withdrawn. "I would not be bothered by having them here after their work is done." "How good that lobster smells, and how good it tastes!" the girl remarked. "I am as hungry as a bear." "I like to fix food of various kinds in the chafing-dish," Balnbridge said. "And I like also to mix good things to drink. This is one of them," he added, pouring out a glass of a pale amber colored mixture from a tall cut glass pitcher at his side. "Is It something strong?" Agnes queried, regarding it doubtfully. "No, indeed!" he replied. "It's the lightest kind of Sauterne punch, made after a recipe of my own. Doesn't it look good ?" It did look good, with its cracked ice and sprig of mint, and it frosted the outside of the slender tumbler into ■which It was poured. Agnes sipped it cautiously. City Briefs Hunter Injured. Fred B. Clark, aged 28, of Hershey, was treated at the Harrlsburg hospital yesterday for a compound fracture of bones of the left arm and flesh wounds caused by a shotgun discharge. Clark started to crawl under a porch after a rab bit. As he crawled past the gun it Safe Home Treatment For Objectionable Hairs (Boudoir Secrets.) The electric needle is not required for the removal of hair or fuzz, for with the use of plain delatone the most stubborn growth can be quickly banished. A paste is made with water and a little of the powder, then spread over the hairy surface. In about 2 minutes it is rubbed off and the skin washed. This simple treatment not only removes the hair, but leaves the skin free from blemish. Be sure you get genuine delatone. 0 worn (MI give rubber footwear hard service.

"Delicious," she replied, "and it doesn't taste a bit strong. Are you sure it isn't?" "Sure!" he declared "A baby would not feel it." Whether a baby would have felt It or not, the girl did not know. But in a few minutes she was aware that it had refreshed her wonderfully, that her weariness and depression were gone and that she was talking more frankly to this man than she ever talked before. She wondered If the punch was re sponsible for this delightful feeling of exhilaration. If so, it was certainly doing her no harm. She was able to forget certain things that she had not liked about her companion. She was sure now that he was her good friend. She was experiencing for the first time the sense of elation produced by a very little liquor when one is not ac customed to it. Her thoughts were not confused, indeed she could talk more logically than ever, but the check that she usually put upon her speech, the restraint that made her reticent about her own troubles,, was removed. And before she was aware of the fact, she had confided to her companion her money anxieties. He Comforts Her He met her confidences with a sym apthy and a comprehension that touched her. "I am glad you have told me all this," he sair, "for I do want to help you, and I can do it, If you will let me." "You have helped me," she said. "But for tho work you have given me. I do not know how 1 would have paid my aunt's nurse.' "Well," he said, "I have some more very important copying I want done." He paused, and she glanced up, smiling. "Some more Old English?" she asked. "Really, while that has been hard in a way, it has also been very interesting." "No," he said, "not Old English this time—but everyday American. And it will mean that you will have to come here quite regularly for many even ings all winter." "Is it as big a piece of work as that?" she exclaimed in surprise. "Will it take so long?" "Yes,' he replied, "it will." Her thoughts flew swiftly. All win ter! That would mean enough money to pay all her debts—-to pay for Aunt Lucy's room, the operation, perhaps for everything! Her eyes sparkled and she clasped her hands. "Oh," she breathed, "I wonder If I ought to—if you are not just making work so as to help me!" The man laughed. "Hardly!" he rejoined. "But let us go back into the library and talk the matter over. I have a proposition to make to you. But first take a little more punch. He poured out another glass for her. "To you—a kind friend!" she said, smiling, as she raised it to her lips. (To Be Continued.) was discharged and the shot entered his right arm. Attacked He Says. Robert Wil son .who gave his address as Cham bersburg was treated at the Harris burg hospital for a wound in the head. Four stitches were required to close the wound.

TELEGRAPH HOODOOED 'FILLUM' NEAR DISASTER FOR THIRD TIME The 11.40 Pennsy train bound west yesterday very nearly had a passenger who was determined never to let Gov. ernor Brumbaugh, or Secretary Ball, or Chief Engineer Uhler of the High way Department, as well as half a hundred other distinguished citizens, see him In the flesh again. As things turned out the 11.40 went west with out this particular passenger, but he aged visibly between 11.29 and 11.33 yesterday. For the third time the "flllum" showing the dedication of the William Penn Highway Easton con crete link very narrowly missed show ing. And Secretary "Mel" James of the William Penn association at noon looked like he had worked a 36-hour turn in a rolling- mill. According to the William Penn sec retary the Easton "flllum" is hoo dooed. Jt was originally scheduled for a private showing for the Governor and Highway Department officials in the House chamber at the Capitol. All arrangements/had been made the picture machine installed, the screen hung, and everything. Governor Brumbaugh and other officials were ready. Alas! The "flllum" was lost, nor was It found for two days. That was a week ago last Friday. The next time the secretary issued no in vitations, fortunately for him. But he intended showing the picture to the school teachers in institute last week; and when everything was ready he thought of asking the Governor over. 1 No Shortage of Coal, but Increased Demand New York, Nov. 22. There is no "shortage" of coal but there Is an In creased demand, E. B. Thomas, presi dent of the Lehigh Valley Bailroad Company, said to-day in a statement setting forth what he declared were the "chief reasons" for the present excitement in the coal market. Dur ing ten months ending with September ho asserted, 55,800,620 tons were shipped from the anthracite region, an increase of 560,673 tons over the amount during the same period in 1915 and 1914 and these figures "dis pose of the theory so erroneously and persistently put forth by persons who have no knowledge of the coal trade."

Answer Promptly Promptness in answering is a courtesy that your telephone caller appreciates; delay may cause him to abandon the call. Records show that in nearly seven out of every one hundred telephone calls there is a delay of more than a minute before the called party answers, and in one of each four of these cases the party calling does not ivait. The habit of answering your telephone promptly is one that will do much to improve the service not only to yourself, but to those who call you. IHK BEI.I, TKI, _ HONE CO.
