20 OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van 'k' Water CHAPTER LXII. (Copyright, 1916, Star Company.) Consciousness returned slowly to Agnes Morley. First she was aware of a penetrat ing odor that stung her nostrils, then, through a haze, she saw the face of the druggist bending over her. "Oh," she gasped, "What is It? Where am I?" She was lying on a couch in the room at the rear of the shop. The proprietor was holding a bottle of salts to her nose. His assistant knelt by her side, chafing her hands. As the recollection of what she had Just heard swept over her she struggled to rise. "I must go home," she quavered, "I want to go home, please." "Just lie still a moment," the drug gist soothed. "You will be better pretty soon. I noticed when you came into the store how pale you were. I guess you've been working a bit too hard. Do you feol any pain? Shall I call a cab to take you home?" "No, indeed—l'm all right," Agnes Insisted, standing up in spite of the man's protest. "I have been a little tired lately—and It—it was close in the booth, that's all. I sahll get on comfortably now. I thank you both very much." Her manner was so decided that neither man offered an? further re monstrance. One of them held the door opon for her when she went out; both shook their heads as they sazed after her retreating tlgure. "She looks like death itself," the clerk commented. "I hope she gets homo all right." She Crawls Home "She has only a short way to go," tho proprietor rejoined, "and it's just as well, for she's surely unsteady on her pins." With the instinct of a wounded ani mal that crawls away to hide its hurts and to die, Agnes sought her home. Weakly she climbed the stairs, cling ing to the balustrade for support. All seemed dark about her. She must not fall, she told herself, untl lshe was safe In her own room. For what seemed like hours she climbed upward. At last she found herself clinging with one hand to the knob of her front door, while with the other hand she managed to ring the bell. Then, as she saw the white and startled face of Jennie OXeill. she caught the maid by the arm. felt her self falling again through blackness, and, with a moan, sank to the iloor.| A dash of cold water in her face revived her sufficiently for Jennie to lead her into the living room, where she submitted to the maid's command that she lie down on the couch. When she was stretched out with a shawl thrown over her, Jennie hurried from the room, returning in a few minutes with the announcement that she had been upstairs to telephone for the doctor. "I was just in time to catch him as he was leavin' his olfice." she said, "so he'll be here in a jiffy." "I don't need him," Agnes began, hut the girl silenced her with a ges ture.

In this there are more than a dozen of the 116 separate parts of a Bell telephone. The years have developed this mechanism to be the best it is possible to make, and it combines strength and sturdiness with the delicacy of instant response. v. Think what it means when the receiver is D . , "banged" into the hook. Kepeated often, it must loosen and destroy the careful adjustments; and if the receiver strikes the hook in a lateral blow before it is down far enough to break the contact, and if the person on the other end has not had time to hang up, he will hear a crack ' that is mighty unpleasant. You can help to safeguard the high quality of your r>ell Service by care in replacing the receiver. ®rilE DELL TELEPHONE CO. OF PA. HARRIS BURG, PA. *1 " 4 FRIDAY EVENING. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 8, 1916. "Please don't try to talk now," Jen nie urged. "What you need is a good rest." Dr. Martin, arriving a few minutes later, repeated this prescription. Too Great a Strain "The strain of the past feAV weeks has been too much for you," he de clared. "You have been looking like a ghost, and now that your aunt is safely through her ordeal you feel the reaction. If you don't do as I say and keep quiet, you'll have a nervous col lapse that will put you flat on your back for some time to come." "But I must go to see Auntie." she reminded him, "and to work," she added weakly. "You can't—so say no moro about it," ho ordered. "Your aunt is com fortable, and I will tell her that I have told you to keep away until she is stronger. As for your work—well, if your position's worth anything they'll hold it for you while you're down and out. Here—give me the telephone number of your office. I'll call up and Inform them that you're at home by my orders. Xow, not another word. Drink this stuff." For, while he talked, he had been dropping some liquid into a glass with a little water in it, and now hold it to her lips. She swallowed the mixture obediently. "Don't try to get even into your own room until to-night," he told her. •'Jennie" —turning to the maid, "see that Miss Agnes is not disturbed until time for her to be put to bed for the night. Then give her a little nourish ment and another dose of this liquid. If she is not better to-morrow, send for me." Vague thoughts of murder and of hopeless debt floated through Agnes' mind, but floated away again as the sedative took hold of her senses and she drifted off Into oblivion. It was evening when she opened her eyes and she saw Jennie standing by her. "Why—what has been the matter with me?" Agnes asked, "Oh, yes— now 1 remember! Jennie"—strug gling with the drowsiness that threat ened to engulf her—"tell me—do you know about about Mr. Baln bridge?" "Please, ma'am, you're to drink this cup of hot milk, take this medicine, and let me put you into your bed," the girl reminded her. "The doctor for bade my letting you talk." Pickens Makes a Call After she had gotten Agnes into bed, Jennie remained with her until the sleeping draught had again done its work. Then, as she heard a bell ring, she glided frlm the room to the front door. A man whom she did not know stood the^e. "Is MissMorley at home?" he asked nervously. "She's not well, and she can't see anybody just now," the maid replied. "Tell her," the man directed, "that Mr. Pickens called. I will come again to-morrow —as it is important that I see her." As Jennie shut the door after his departure, tlio memory of his pale face made her shudder. (To Be Continued.)

Dear Miss Fairfax: A young man who has his place of business In the same building with me has promised to take me out to dinner. He is married and says his wife knows all about his doings. He asked me to choose between a diritier or a supper at a place which has a cabaret. Do you think it proper for a young girl to go with him? ELEXORA. No dignified, self-respecting girl will ever go about with a married man unless his wife is included in the party. If she does the world is sure to judge her harshly and in all probability great unhapplness will result. You are in a critical position, and to see the world under his guidance means grave danger for you. Please take my advice. You will bitterly regret it If you do not. A married man who shows attentions to a young girl never has honorable intentions. There is no exception to this rule. Suicide Wills Body to Daughter; Bridal Gift New York, Dec. 8. Alexander Wir.kler, an artist, who committed suicide yesterday, willed his body to his daughter as a wedding present.

Second St. [ FAMILY | FURNISHERS THE DIFFERENT KIND OF A CREDIT STORE CLOTHIERS SUFFRAGE BRING WOMEN JURORS? More Leisure to Properly Per form Civic Duty Says Dorothy Dix In an address which he made a few nights ago to the Grand Jurors' Association, Judge Mulqueen said that his reason for voting for woman suffrage was that the women might relieve the men on Grand Jury cases. This, Judge Mulqueen declared, would correct many evils. A Daniel! A second Daniel, come to Judgment! Judge .'Uilqeen is right. One of the blessings that woman suffrage would bestow on the country v°uld le to render a large body of citizens eli gible for jury service who would not only have the ability but the leisure iu which to properly perform that eVtc duty. When the average man Is drawn for the jury, It calls for such a sacri fice that he evades serving if he can possibly do ao. If he is a clerk his employer lets him off with mutterlngs and grumblings, and he has always the fear of someone supplanting him in his situation while he is gone. If he Is a business or professional man, his absence from the store or office for a week or more may cost him thousands of dollars, and no matter how he tries to follow the in tricacies of a case, in the back of his mind is always an anxious worry over the probable mistakes that his em ployes are making while he is gone. WOMEN COMPETENT, WILLING AND HAVE TIME TO SPARE It is not because men are lacking in i civic conscience that they aro loath to serve on juries, but simply because In the fierce competition of the struggle for existence they can't afford It. The average woman Is not so hard pressed. She has plenty of the time that 13 not money, and she would be glad to do her bit for her country by relieving men from having to serve on juries. In every community there are num bers of well off, middle-aged women, locally renowned for their hard horse sense and their ktnu hearts; women who are wise In the knowledge of the human heart, and ripe In experience, women to whom everyone who knows them goes for counsel and advice. These women have raised their own families and their hands are Idle. They would make Ideal jurors who would bring an unhurried, unworrled atten tion to the consideration of a case sub mitted to them that is Impossible to men worried and troubled about their own affairs. It has always been a cynical little legal jest that the right of trial by jury, which guarantees to the offender against the law "the right to be tried by a Jury of his peers," did not per mit women on juries. Men universally assert that they have never been able to learn even the a, b, c of feminine psychology, and that womankind is a riddle beyond their guessing. Realizing this, men juries generally Just throw up their hands and give the problem up when they are called upon to deal with a woman criminal, and let her go scot free. This gives us those travesties of justice that dis grace our courts, where, after the prosecutor has spent weeks of time and thousands of dollars In proving a woman guilty of some crime, the Jury brings In a verdict of "not guilty" in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. A woman Jury would correct this evil. A woman jury would have no traditions of gallantry to uphold, nor would It be affected by the beauty of il the defendant, or consider that the possession of blue eyes and golden hair and a willowy figure gave a lady a right to put poison In her husband's coffee because she had fallen in love with another man. And a woman jury would possess the infallible receipt for testing a wo man's tears, and telling when they were genuine tears of grief or repent ance and when crocodile tears. WOMEN CAN JUDGE WOMEN J I'ST AS MKN JUDGE MEN Nor would women Juries l>e unduly harsh to their sex. They would simp ly understand just what motives lay behind every act that a woman ftim mitteU. They would simply judge her Intelligently, as men judge another man. That women should be on the jur ies that try cases involving little chil dren and erring girls is self obvious. Motherhood gives an Intuition that is a sort of second sight in these mat ters. and that would enable a jury of women to dspense Justice with the wisdom of a Solomon. Of course the woman jury is com ing. It will be one of the modern improvements of the near future, and then we shall wonder, as they do out West, where women vote and where they have the woman Jury, why we were silly enough to do with out it so long. Hubby's Artificial Leg Causes Divorce Action Pittsburgh. Because her husband had deceived her before and at the time of their marriage in Cumberland, Md., July 18, 1914, by not telling her that he only had one good leg and that she did not learn that his other leg was artificial until three weeks after the marriage, was the reason given for asking a decree of divorce by Mrs. Anna Bell, before a master appointed tp take evidence in the case. The discovery that her husband had only one leg. the wife testified', was followed by abuse and ill treatment by him. She says she was forced to leave him two months after their marriage. Quarrels, the wife said, were due to her husband's Insatiable appetite for liquor. The master recommended that a di vorce be granted.
