20 OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van 'k 1 Water CHAPTER LVI. (Copyright, 1916, Star Company.) jQnnie O'Neill crept softly about the apartment the next morning. Once she paused, then, on tip-toe, entered A*nes' room. The girl lay with one arm thrown across her eyes. The maid could hear the steady breathing that denoted heavy slumber. "Sure," she whispered to herself as sho closed the door quietly, "the poor dear was out at work late last night. It would be a shame to wake he r now." Meanwhile the clock on the table at the head of the bed ticked on mon otonously. Agnes had been so worn ont mentally and physically last night that she had forgotten to set the alarm. Loud voices conversing in the flat across the court finally aroused her, but not until the hands on the time piece had crept around to eight, to nine, and then to half past nine. As her dull eyes fell on the clock-face Agnes sprang to a sitting posture, and, seizing the clock, held it to her ear. Yes, it was going. And then she re membered suddenly that she had for gotten to set the alarm, and she re alized that she was long overdue at th office. And, following swiftly \ipon this realization, came the recollection of all that had occurred last evening. For a moment she sat, her face buried in her hands. By the time that she had taken her bath and put on her clothes her mind worked more clearly. Whatever hap pened, her employer must be told that she would not be at the office this morning. Opening the door into the kitchen, ■he summoned Jennie. "I want you to go out at once," Agnes said, '"and call up this number." She paused long enough to write on a slip of paper Hale & Bainbridge's telephone number. "When you get this office," she went on, "ask for Mr. Hale. Tell him that Miss Morley's aunt is to have an oper ation to-day and that she—Miss Mor ley—cannot come down to work. Here's the nickel for the phone." If Jennie longed to ask any ques- HUE HI NUTES!

When she returned to the flat she found her young mistress making her self a cup of coffee over the gas stove. "He says, ma'am," Jennie began, without further preliminary, "all right! And please, Miss Agnes, let me do that bit of cooking for you. It's 10 o'clock and you haven't had a bite yet. Sit down and I'll have something ready for you in a jiffy." "Is that all he said?" Agnes asked, dully, surrendering the coffee pot to the maid. "Well, yes'm," Jennie replied, with some hesitation, then added, reluc tantly, "he was kind of short-like in his manner." When Jennie appeared with hot cof fee, a slice of toast and a boiled egg, Agnes smiled, wanly. "Thank you," she said, and forced herself to eat a few mouthfuls before gulping down the steaming beverage. "Really, Jennie," she told the maid later, "I shall not need you any more just now. Suppose you wash these few dishes and straighten up the flat, and then go home." "And what about you?" the girl asked anxiously. "Oh," she replied, almost impatient ly, "I shall be all right. 1 am going to the hospital now to aak after Miss Morley." "And then?" Jennie persisted. "Then I shall come back here and remain for the rest of the day. As I am not going to the office, .1 can get my own meals." "All right, ma'am," Jennie agreed, "It must be just as you say. But, if you don't mind, I would like to stay here until you come back—just to find out how Miss Morley is. I won't charge you for that extra hour or two. Miss Agnes." Agnes Morley laid a kindly hand on the girl's shoulder. "I am not afraid of your over-charging me, child. And you are welcome to stay until my re turn. But you see, Jennie, now that I am alone, I must not be as extrava gant as I have been, and I don't need a maid just for my lazy self." Then because she could not trust herself, to say any more just then, she hurried out of the room. (To Be Continued.) bad stomach.

If your stomach doesn't take care of your liberal limit without rebel lion; if your food is a damage instead of a help, remember the quickest, sur est, most harmless relief is Pape's Dlapepsin which costs only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores.

The Folly of Taking Digestive Pills A Warning to Dyspeptic* The habit of taking digestive pills after meals makes chronic dyspeptics of many thousands of men and women because artificial dlgestants, drugs and medicines have practically no influence upon the excessively acid condition of the stomach contents which is the cause of most forms of indigestion and dyspepsia. The after dinner pill merely lessens the sensitiveness of the stomach nerves and thus gives a false sense of freedom from pain. If those who are subject to indigestion, gns, flatulence, belching bloating, heartburn, etc., after eating would get about an ounce of pure bls urated magnesia from their druggist and take a teaspoonful in a little water after meals, there would be no further necessity for drugs or medicines be cause blnurated magnesia Instantly neutralizes stomach acidity, stops food fermentation and thus Insures normal painless digestion by enabling the stomach to do its work without hin drance. Bisurated Magnesia referred to above can be obtained from G. A. Gorgas or any local druggist.—Advertisement.

"The Line is Busy 99 Eight and one-half billion telephone calls were answered last year in the Bell System. It is not surprising that some telephones were found to be bu3y. That report, however, does not always mean that the called telephone is in use. Remember that some other party on the line may be talking or someone else may be calling for a number on that line. Bear in mind, too, that it is actually more work for the operator to report a line as busy than it is to complete the connection. Busy men have busy telephones. It is un avoidable that you may sometimes have to knock more than once at their telephone doors. ®fHE BELI, TELEPHONE! CO. OF PA. S. B. WATTS, Local Manager, < HARRISBURG, PA.
