OF INTEREST TO
"THEIR MARRIED LIFE" ]
C'opyrlKlit by International Xew Service
Ned's proposition had left Warren
sarcastic and Helen timorous, al
though she feigned complete contl
tlence. Not for the world would she
have allowed Warren to see that She
was frightened at the turn things had
taken.
Ned having thrown the bomb,
•waited to see what would happen.
He had not expected that Helen
■would come to his aid so quickly.
Ho had supposed that it would take
some time to convince her after
Warren had heard the news.
"So you and Ned have been con
niving together, have you?" said War
ren evenly.
"No, Warren, No!" said Helen
quickly. "Ned spoke of the posi
tion and I told him that I could not
take it. I asked him how he hap
pened to think of me. It was as
much of a surprise to me as it was to
you."
"But you said you would consider
it?"
"No, I told Ned definitely that I
would not dream of taking it, but
ffC.'ir manner infuriated mo, when
you spoke that way to-night. Of
course I do know that plenty of wo
men who lead happy lives with their
husbands have an outside interest,
even work in offices, but I never
thought of doing it myself."
As usual Helen's impulsive defense
of herself had petered out, and she
was once more fearful of Warren's
attitude toward her.
"Well, if you told Ned definitely
that you would not take the posi
tion," Waren returned, "why does he
insist upon it? You must have im
plied in some way that you would
like it."
"I'll answer that question if you
don't mind," put in Ned imperturb
ably. '1 thought that it would be only
fair to Helen to get your opinion on
the matter. She seemed afraid to tell
you herself, because she know your
opinion on the subject, but I thousht
that you ought to see it from her
standpoint if possible."
"I suppose you mean that by re
fusing to consider Helen as an of
fice fixture I am interfering with her
life," said Warren ominously. "Of
course, being her husband has little
weight in a discussion of (his kind."
Ned shrugged his shoulders as
though there jvas no use in argu
ing, and said simply:
"Well, I really wanted Helen for
this position, and 1 thought it would
be a good chance for her. There's no
reason why a woman with as much
time on her hands as she lias and
with so many points in her favor,
should not be given a chance to de
velop herself, to stand alone, and
think for herself, r didn't think you
considered her wifehood more import- :
ant than the fact that she is a wo
man."
And with these words Ned turned
the topic of conversation to some
thins general, and shortly after
went. There was nothing else for
him to do. His words had left War
ren angry, and Helen did not dare
say anything.
Close Hundred Saloons
in Mahanoy City
Pottftville. Pa., Jan. 31.—The Rettig
Brewery, of Pottsville, and the Ash
land Brewery, of Fountain Springs,
whose petitions were held up by court
■were granted licenses yesterday. All
other licenses, however, continue to he
held up because of the deadlock be
tween Judges Bechtel and Koch, al
though attorneys for the fifty-two Ma
hanoy City saloonkeepers whose li
censes are held up succeeded in forc
ing a hearing on a technical point.
Attorney M. J. Ryan moved to dis
miss these remonstrances because
they do not contain any allegation of
any change as to the necessity of
ihose places since the court passed
upon them a year ago, and does not
bring up any new issue. Judge Koch
heard argument on this point to-day.
The objections to the two brewery
licenses were that these breweries
were interested, contrary to law, in
the retail trade. The licenses of all
saloons end to-nif?ht and nearly a
hundred will be obliged to close.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
Helen hoped that the subject would
be dropped, and she turned to go to
bed, thinking that if she avoided
speaking of it further that Warren
would forget it more easily. But
matters had not been settled for
Warren by any means.
"So you think you would like to
try your hand at a career," he said
sarcastically, a{J the door closed on
Ned.
Helen considered a moment before
answering. She did not want to an- j
tagonize Warren, and yet there was
something in her that refused to be
bullied.
Warren looked at her curiously,
when she did not answer, and she,
finally raised her eyes to. him and
spoke.
"1 don't know what to say, War- :
ren; you have such decided views on j
the subject. I had no idea of ever j
having the opport unity to consider |
any kind of a career, I never thought,
I knew enough. I still don't, but if.
I thought I did, it would make me I
happier than unything I could think '
of."
"You're not interested any longer
in the life you are leading and in
knowing the women you have known.
You must ape these women like
Frances Knowles and her set who
must have a career and be indepen
dent."
"I think every woman should be
independent," Helen returned.
"You are not answering my ques
tion."
"Well, Warren, what Ned says is
true. I have the time. Men seldom j
come home to lunch. Mary is here J
to look after the house; Winifred is j
in school all day. There is no rea-'
son for my not taking the position j
excepting for the fact that you ob
ject."
Warren broke out at this. "Then I
you are considering it. Well. by j
George! before the fellows get a'
chance to say that I can't support'
my wife, and that she has to go to j
work, I'll do something, let me tell
you."
"You're looking at it all wrong,
dear," Helen said gently. "At first
the idea frightened me; but, now
that 1 have become used to it, it cer
tainly has an appeal. It would estalx
lish me on another basis, and I should
feel so different toward our hornet
But of course I am not going to con
sider it if you object to it. I shall
do as you like: you know that."
Of course Warrsn knew it he
had known it all along but he was
not content to leave well enough
alone. ,
"You are all excited with the idea
that perhaps you can do something,
aren't you? ' he sneered. "Well, don't
flatter yourself. Don't imagine for
a moment that Ned Burns offered you
that position because you have talent;
he's just crazy about you, that's all,
and jou know it. 1 shouldn't be u
bit surprised if that fiancee of liis was
a made up, too; he didn't seem anx
ious to talk about her, and X never
liked the fellow anyway."

Boston, Jan. 31. A reward of
So,ooo for sinking a German submar
ine in the Bay of Biscay some months
ago has been paid by the British
Admiralty to Captain AV. R. Miller, of
the British freighter Clan Robertson,
in port here from Liverpool. At the

was in command of the British steam
ship Clan MncFayden, bound from
India for London. As the submarine

The aim was fair, for it was said that
j*lie submarine lurched heavily and
j plunged to the bottom bow tlrst.
Investigation of Captain Miller's re
j port by Admiralty officials satisfied
it hem, it was said that the steamship
; had destroyed an enemy craft, and

Lines to This Girl's
Coat
By MAY~M ANTON
9277 (With Basting Line and Added
Scam Allowance ) Girl's Coat, 6 to 12
years.
Th's is as handsome a coat as the girl
can wear. Here, it if made of dark green
velours and it is trimmed with champagne
colored broadcloth that is embroidered
with dark but rich colors. It could of
course be copied in velours of any color
or in any other seasonable cloaking ma
terial, but the green is fashionable and
the trimming of broadcloth is one of the
smartest and best liked. Fur cloth
makes handsome coats of this sort, too,
also burella cloth and bolivia cloth are
desirable, or bioadcloth, because warmth
always can be supplied by an interlining.
Broadcloth with fur collar and cuffs
would make a very smart coat, or with
collar and cuffs of the material edged
with fur.
For the 10 year size will be needed,
3Yi yards of material 36 inches wide,
2}4 yards 44 or 54.

(Continued)
That was a busy week in the en
chanted apartments, a busy and a
proud week, for the papers were full
of nothing but the marvelous ro
mance of Harrison Stuart, of his tre
mendous achievements, of his digni
lied aosition in the world of struc
tural engineering, of his pictures,
front view, profile, and three quarters,
standing, walking, and riding in a
machine, working, laughing, and
smoking a cigar. There were pretty
stories, too, about' the charming wife
and daughter who had waited for him
all these years, and of the enchanted
parlor, and the paper on its walls,
and the shape and color of the piano,
and the pattern of the rug, and other
important details. Pictures, too, of
the charming ladies. There was no
escaping that, for the whole neighbor
hood was alive with clicking cameras;
and, if the papers didn't get good
pictures they would use bad ones, or
forge some. So Tommy Tinkle, with
a pHoper pride in his friends, saw
that they got good ones. Some of
the papers insisted on engaging beau
tiful Tavy to Tommy Tinkle! They
were rather friendly to the news
papers, the Stuart ladies, because,
while the reporters made life a bur
den to them for three days, every
thing was so superlatively compli
mentary; and there was not one hint
anywhere of the enemy which had
really robbed Harrison Stuart of his
memory, and of everything else worth
while. I
Honors heaped upon honors! Be
hold Jean und Tavy Stuart ushered
by Tommy Tinkle into the ladies'
nailery of the Hotel Nabob, and
screened behind a moorish jalousie,
upon which, by some magic, had
grown a purple-blossomed vine with
out roots and without earth and with
out water. Below, under the tons of
ceilinged gold and stucco, and be
neath the tons of crystalled chan
deliers, and attended by so many
waiters that the place is black with
them, sits the T-Beam Club, a sombre
looking collection of black-clad gen
tlemen, all with crinkly or shiny
shirtfronts, and all with stiff-looking
white bow ties, and all miserably
solemn, as is proper at a banquet, for
now the coffee has arrived and the
speeches will begin.
What a disappointment! Of course
the banquet table is shaped like the
cross section of a huge T-beani, with
the toastmaster and the principal
speakers in the center, and the un
important new members far away at
the llanges, but the seating is so ar
ranged that a fat man hides the guest
of honor almost completely from the
view of the ladies in the gallery; and
if they shift, lie is more completelv
hidden by one of the two absurd
Corinthian columns, made of flowers
and bearing huge lanterns upon which
glow the club monogram; so the
ladies stay where they are, and get
such glimpses as they can of the bald
spot at the radial center of Harrison
Stuart's pray hair. Sometimes he
moves and then they can see a part
of his face. Once he leaned far back,
and they saw his silver Vandyke. It
was a thrilling moment!
Now the toastmaster. Ainsley Pul
liam, of course. He raps for order,
with a gavel the head of which is
naturally from the cross section of a
T-beam; and he drones along for half
an hour, with many an elaborate joke,
and many a sentimental quotation
about their beloved and distinguished
fellow member, who has come back
to them, out of the great sea of obliv
ion, to take his rightful place in their
hearts. A toast, gentlemen, to our
beloved and distinguished fellow mem
ber, Harrison Stuart, the most valu
able jewel in the glittering diadem of
the profession! (Prolonned applause.)
With a will, they drink that toast
to Harrison Stuart, and he drinks
with them in sparkling water, un
troubled by the glass or yellow cham
pagne which hisses at Jjis hand. Far
'own the table, Billy Lane leans for
ward to catch the eye of Hal. Billy
drinks the toast in wine. He has
no cause to be afraid of that, and he
turns and lifts his glass toward the
..alousie lattice, which permits the
ladies to see and not be seen. This
lattice is a grievous imposition, lor
Tavy frantically waves her handker
chief at liim in answer to that uprais
ed glass; but he cannot see it. Billy
is in plain view, and that is a com
fort, for he is the handsomest and
most distinguished looking voung man
all odds!
Now the response. The guest of
honor is on his feet, modest, unas
suming, but his heart deeply touched
by this tribute they have paid him
after all that ho had done! A neat
little speech, but quite short, and in
a Tow voice, and full of thanks.
Ainsley Pulham again. "The Float
ing Home," that new marvel of the
sti ucturul world, and the response
will be made by that phenomenally
brilliant and successful younjy en
gineering architect, William Lane, the
partner of the famous Harrison
Stuart!
No low voice here. Billy Lane, in
a deep rich, baritone, tells them all
about the floating dome, its inception,
its beauty, its value, Its development
of a new principle of construction
which will revolutionize the science!
Who would over have thought that
Billy Lane was such an orator? With
suie control and smooth words, and
rounded sentences, and contagious en
thusiasm, he made the floating dome
as interesting as a page out of the
Arabian Nights Tales; but, when he
came to tho inventor of that marvel
then Indeed he rose to heights of elo
quence, for hero was a topic upon
which he could say his say with a full
heart and sturdy belief! His voice
pulsed and reverberated throughout
the length and breadth of the ban
quet hall, vibrated amid the crystal
of the chandeiTers and the stucco and
gold of the ceilings, throbbed into the
ladies' gallery, penetrated to the in
nermost recess of Tavy Stuart, so that
she fairly quivered with the pride
and glOry of it all! Were there ever
two such remarkably clever and bril
liant and majestic men as Harrison
Stuart and Billy Lane? Never! And
in the burst of stupendous applause
which followed, Jean and Tavy Stuart
laughed and laughed for Joy, and wip
ed their eyes, and held hands
More speeches, with Ainsley Pul
ham in between, sometimes getting
his jokes mixed, and sometimes de
livering in advance the meat out of
| the next speaker's talk, but always
fresh and smiling and tireless, and
so abundantly supplied with words
that It was a woiider there were anv
left. '
Dick Morton, on "Tho Good Old
Days." Henry MeCultough on "The
Wedding of Iron and Concrete."
Walter Hess, on "The Future, What
of It?" T. Al. Weatherby, 011 "Fif
teen Years of Iron."
That was a most Interesting speech
to Harrison Stuart. It told him, in
the concise and logical phraseology
of a man thoroughly versed In the
technique of his science, the exact
progress, step by step, of structural
iron work from the time Harrison
Stuart died until he came back to
life. The man who had been away
during those fifteen years listened in
abstracted concentration, and, now
and then, as he gave his rapt atten
tion to the speaker, sipped from his
glass, not noticing that he was drink
ing the champagne. That habit came
back to him naturally and tvltliout
thought, after fifteen years of ab
sence from banquets, just as the habit
of politeness had come back to him.
That waiters passed quietly down
along the table, and set little de
cantes of after-coffee brandy at close
intervals.
There were other speeches, some
droning and .dry, some frivolous antV
enlivening, some tensely interesting
from a technical standpoint; but late,
towards the close of the evening,
when the ladies in the gallery were
painfully lighting off drowsiness, and
Tommy Tinkle was doing everything
he could to keep Tavy and Mrs. Stuart
awake, there suddenly burst a new
voice on the assemblage.
"Whisky!" The tones were startling
in their coarse raucousness. "It's the
curse of the world!" The voice rose
to a senile shriek. "There is no hell
but whisky! Drink! It's the enemy
of man and God! It burns the body
and it sears the brain! Whisky!"
There was a shriek from the ladies'
gallery. It was not Harrison Stuart
who swayed there, his face flushed
and puffed, his bleared eyes half
closed, and his lips formless; but a
beast, an animal, a Thing from an
other world. It was Bow-Wow!
CHAPTER XXXII
Tn tlio Silence of Black Niglit
They wanted to wait for him, those
two stricken women in the gallery,
to take him homo with them, for in
their hearts was no resentment, only
pity. But Tommy Tinkle would not
let them. He sent word to Billy that
he had them in charge, and took
them home, and said what consoling
things he could. It was not much of
a lapse, it was more excitement than
anything else, Billy would have him
all right in the morning, such things
were to be expected, and wasn't it a
stunning speech that Billy made!
Yes, such things were to be expect
ed, and that was the awful tragedy of
it. Again the spectral shadow claim
ed its firm seat in the blue eyes and
the dark gray, and the Stuart women
look up the allotment nature had
made for them.
Billy telephoned them shortly after
they reached home. Hal was resting
quite comfortably now. He had not
drunk very much. He had sipped at
his champagne without knowing it,
and then he had taken some of the
brandy, and of course, with the taste
of that on his tongue, he did not
quite realize what he was doing. He'd
be fine in the morning, and, after
all, it was more the excitement than
anything else.
But Billy knew better. Hals' first
act, when they had left him alone
for a moment to prepare his bed and
his medicine, had been to rouse from
a seeming lethargy and snatch the
decanter! Burke came back in time
to seize it from him; but already he
had swallowed the equal of a tumbler
ful, and, laughing with a gurgle in
his throat, he let them put him to bed.
Almost as soon as he laid his head
oh the pillow, he dropped into a pro
found stupor.
"It's a 4amn shame beg your
pardon, sir after the fight "tie's
made." This was Burke, and he help
ed Billy off with his coat and vest.
"I think I'll sit up and watch him."
"I expect you'd better," decided
Billy, and he put Hal's hands under
the covers. The window had been
opened, and it was rather cold in the
blue room. "Call me if he's any
trouble."
So Billy, heavy-hearted, went to!
bed, and Burke made himself com- j
fortable in robe and slippers, and
put another log on the fire in the big
lounginK-rooni, and sat with pipe and
paper. Mr. Stuart slept very well, in
deed. Burke went in to look at him
about twice ah hour, and once, by ac
cident. he dropped a metal tray with
a terrific clang; but there was no
waking the man. Burke went back
and sat on the big leather couch, and
looked into the tire, and thought on
the Widow Maloney with particular
satisfaction; for he had carefully |
concealed from her that in two weeks I
he would be sailing over the seas!
and far away, with Mr. Billy and his ;
pretty bride. Otherwise the deter
mined Nora might marry him. Two
more weeks! Pretty little Miss Tavy,
God bless her, would make a beau
tiful bride; two more weeks and the
royal princess, she was a sweet-mind
ed lady, God bless her, would move
into the new house, and Harrison
Stuart would come into his own
again; and might he always be happy,
and prosperous and safe! So,
pleasantly musing, Burke nodded his
head lower and lower, and fell into
the dead sleep of them who sit up
late o' nights.
That numb carcass which was Bow-
Wow stirred uneasily. Something was
wrong. There is no resisting the ulti
mate command of the body. When
it is born, a mind and a soul spring
into existence. When it has reached
its time to die, the mind and the soul
have no say in the matter; so, in this
life, the body i-s always supreme. It
demands to be fed, to have its thirst
quenched, to lie in slothful slumber;
and if it be refused these things, it
ousts mind and soul.
The body of Bow-Wow commanded
his mind to awaken; and it did;
awakened to its full stength, to its
full intellectual capacity, to the full
measure of its understanding; and
all those mental powers were com
prised in one muttered word, which
broke huskily upon tho silence of
black night:
"Whisky!"

English Firm May Yet
Get Navy Shell Order
Washington, D. C., Jan. 31.—Con
tracts for more than $3,000,000 worth
of armor-piercing shells let by the
Navy to Hadfields, Limited, an English
concern, may be lllled despite the Brit
ish government's order that that com
pany should not proceed with the
work "so long as the exigencies of war
continues." •
A dispatch from Ambassador Page
at London, transmitted by the State
department, said that while the British
authorities felt constrained to with
hold consent for the Hadfields to make
the shells for the present on account
of national needs as understood by the
public, officials of the concern were
reasonably sure that objection would
disappear within twelve or fifteen
months. Even after that delay, the
dispatch said, it probably would be
possible to deliver the projectiles
within the tiine stipulation originally
made by the company—19 months for
ttye 4,500 14-inch projectiles and l(i
months for the 3,000 16-inch types.
Inasmuch as the shells are to be
held in reserve, there being no imme
diate need for them, navy officials are
of the opinion that they can afford to
await further developments and hold
the contract in abeyance for some
time.
Man Held as German

under an American passport issued in
the name of Jelks le Roy Thrasher, of
Quitman, Brooks county, Georgia, has
been taken on the Dutch steamship
Zeelandia, at Falmouth, bound from
Spain for Holland.
It was said that the man at first
stoutly protested that his name was
Thrasher, but that when the admiralty
intelligence officers called him "Cap

This attractive little lady is the
two year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
O. M. Fisher, 238 North St., Harris
burg, Pa. Last winter she had an at
tack of measles, together with a very
severe cold. Just at that time Drug
gist S. J. Wilhelm presented Mr.
Fisher with a jar of the Southern
"outside" treatment —Vlck's Vapoßub
Salve, which was just then being in
troduced in Harrisburg, and requested
that he give this preparation a thor
ough trial. Mr. Fisher writes—
"l must say that our baby had
such a cold on her chest and in her
throat that she could hardly talk,
and we could not get her to take
anything internally. Aker we used
Vick's Vapoßub Salve on her breast
and throat at night before going
to bed she was entirely relieved."
No family should be without this
preparation. It is externally applied,
and so can be used freely—it is ab
sorbed through and penetrates the
skin, and, in addition, is inhaled as a
vapor. It has a hundred uses for the
many minor ailments for which every
mother is the doctor. Three sizes.

Nut enough coal was taken
out of the mines last sum
mer to permit of an accumu
lation ol a reserve. And this
Winter there has been a
