[|jffi ReadiivJ ai\d <\ll ike R\n\ik| : THE HONEYMOON HOUSE BY HAZEL, DALE Janet had always thought a great deal, even when in her most careless existence, and now she began to think more deeply to analyze things, to ob serve reactions upon herself and upon Jarvis. She realized now more than ever while she and Jarvis were going through their adjustment period, that she was highly strung and Jarvis was, too. Janet was not the type of girl who boasted of a temperament in order 10 give vent to uncertain bursts of temper or anger, but she knew that sometimes the smallest incidents led to the largest results, and that a tiny hurt can as sume big proportions when nursed in silent resentment. She and Jarvis liad adopted from the beginning the theory that both were as free as air. Janet wanted Jar vis to have his friends, his time away from her, just as she had her friends and her time away from him, but like most women she grew to like Jarvis' friends as well, if not better, than st.e did her own; she found them more in teresting because they titted into her life so much better. Her own friends were apt to come to see her and rave about the' roman tic manner in which she lived. Janet did not think of it that way: she seem ed to belong and she hated to be made to feel like a fish out of water. Her work with the Chronicle had increased since her connection v*Uh the paper. In addition to her series for children, she had a column all her own that appeared every day. It was rather a refreshing idea, just a timely letter written in the manner of a girl about some up-to-date incident and had become very popular. Janet called it "Over the Tea Ball." and on the strength of its popularity her sal ary had been raised. The extra work meant an added strain, however, and Janet, who bent all her energies to make good, found herself tired and badly in need of mental recreation at the end of the day. In her moments for reasoning *he< knew that her work was the only thing she had apart from Jarvis. Ev erything else was secondary, and. therefore her life seemed narrowing down while his kept broadening. Each day Jarvis ran into some one else, or else added a new friend to his num ber. and while his friends were Janet's, still they were his first. One evening, after a hard day. Janet looking forward to a long evening with Jarvis. They had planned to bo lazy and spend it together at home, and after dinner Janet slipped into a soft negligee and settled herself cosily with a little sigh of supreme content. She looked around the room occasion ally and its warm softness charmed her tired senses. .

WEDNESDAY EVENING, HARWSBURG TELEGRAPH' MARCH 14. 1917. By Hazel Dale anc\ life seemed perfect. Out In the kitchenette Liza >va's washing the | dishes. Soon she would be gone, and then later. Janet would concoct some thing nice to eat and they would enjoy J it like children, each having a hand in ' its preparation. "jarvis, if any one comes in to-night I shall be disappointed." she said once, looking up from her book. "I never, get a chance to be alone with you. never, anil I am too tired to talk to any one to-night." Jarvis smiled at the lovely figure across from him. and agreed with her. But just after l„iza had departed lliere was a quick sound of steps and the little knocker was banged vigorously. Jarvis ran to open the door and Dick. Armstrong walked in. Janet made a face at him. "What a domestiosjscene!" Dick said in his half attractive, half irritating' manner. Janet had a feeling that Dick did not exactly like her. He was too j accustomed to having girls make way for him. and as Janet never showed j that she was at all impressed by his dangerous charm, it piqued him. and he was almost rude at times. "Yes—aren't we domestic?" Janet drawled. "You strike a very discord- ! ant note, Dick, with your cold, heart- | less cynicism." "Well, I'm not going to stay. I just came to take your husband away from you. Then I'll beat a hasty retreat." Janet's heart beat a little faster, but she said nothing. Jarvis looked up inUrestedly. "What's up?" he queried. "Nothing at all: but you don't want to become too much of a benedict, you Iwiow. Come on out for a tramp—a regular one. for old time's sake." Janet still said nothing, but she re garded Jarvis critically over lier book and saw something that surprised her —he wanted to go. It gave her a queer little feeling almost akin to pain. But she still said nothing. "Mind if I do run out for a while, sweetheart?" Jarvis said, coming over to the chaise lounge. "Why. no," Janet returned slowly, stretching a little and actually forcing her soft delicious smile. "Go on and take your bachelor tramp." And when the door closed after them Janet reasoned fiercely with her self. It wasn't that Jarvis cared less for her: he was a man. that was all. The evening alone meant an evening alone to him and nothing more; to her it meant the most wonderful time of the day. He had forgotten that it was their evening, as soon as Dick had put in an appearance. Janet shivered a little in sudden realization, and then conscious that she was alone and need not mask her feeling she put her head down on her arms and burst into tears, j (To Be Continued) I ! Fashions of To-Day - By May Manton L I tIF a trip to the South is under consideratic n this model will serve admirably for summer material. If you are thinking vf replenishing the Winter ward robe, you can make the blouse of Georgette crepe and the skirt of any heavier ma terial to make a very charm ing effect. If you want a skirt of a thinner and lighter fabric, you can gather in place of plait ing it. It is made in two pieces with seams at the sides, but is perfectly straight at the lower edge. The blouse may be made as it is here or cut off at the waist line with a full length closing at the front. The bag gives a very new shape and a new design for embroidery. For the medium size the blouse will require, yards of material and the skirt, 4"' g yards 36 inches wide. For the bag will be needed, 1 -j yard of mate rial 20 inches wide. The blouse pattern No. 9293 and the skirt No. 9237 both are cut in sizes for 16 and 18 years. The bag pattern is cut in one size and the embroidery pattern • includes a variety of motifs. They will be mailed to any ad dress by the Fashion Depart ment of this paper, on receipt of fifteen cents each ior the blouse and skirt and ten cents each for bag and for embroidery design. Calories and Corn Bread Recent experiments conducted in New York and elsewhere to pro\e that twenty-five cents a day can leeu , one individual have given us a speak ing acquaintance with calories. Among other things, we have learned ' that corn bread contains twice ;lie number of heat units or calories as does wheat bread. Even this knowl edge might not induce eating the corn bread one ordinarily sees. Most corn bread is far too dry and crumbly to be appetizing. This is partly from the way it is mixed, out much more from the manner of bak ing. Corn bread must be cooked steadily, but very slowly. The South i ern "hoe-cake" was baked on either J a "hoe" or on hardwood boards placed tin front of the open fire. Cooked in this way the corn meal retains its flavor and moisture. By using enam eled ware baking pans or frying pans, we get the best substitute for this old method available. Seald the corn meal with boiling water, add salt and a little milk. Bake the cakes slowly in an uncovered enameled ware fry ing pan over a steady lire and the calories it contains will not be des pised. POVERTY PARTY FOR CLASS Enola, Pa., March 14.—Members of class Xo. 1, of Zion Lutheran Church, held a successful poverty party at the home of Mrs. t5. J. Putt, 22 Brick Church road, last night. The pro ceeds were added to the Easter collec tion of the class. Copyright, 1813, by DoubUday, Pag* AC*. (Continued.) From that time the outrages In creased In number and in boldness. No man known to be possessed of any quantity of gold was safe. It was dangerous to walk alone after dark, to bunt alone In the mountains, to live alone. Every man carried his treas ure about with him everywhere he went No man dared raise his voice in criticism of the ruling powers, for it was pretty generally understood that such criticism meant death. This is n chapter I hate to write, and therefore I shall get it over with as soon as possible. One Sunday in the middle of October two men trudged into town leading each a pack horse. I was at the time talking to Barnes at his hotel and saw them from a dis tance hitching their animals outside Morton's. .They stayed there for some time, then came out. unhitched their horses, led them as far as the Empire, hesitated, finally again tied the beasts and disappeared. In this manner they gradually worked along to the Bella Union, where at last 1 recognized them as McXally and Buck Barry, our com rades of the Forcupine. Of course 1 at once rushed over to see them. I found them surrounded by a crowd to whom they were offering drinks free handed. Both were already pret ty drunk, but they knew me as soon as I entered the door and surged to ward me hands out. "Well, well, well:*' cried McXally delightedly. "And here's himsell! And who'd hare thought of seeing you here? I made sure you were In the valley and out of the country long since. And you're just in time. Make a name for it? Better call it whisky straight Drink to us, my boy! Come, join my friends! We're all friends here! Come on, and here's to luck, the best luck ever! We've got two horse loads of gold out there—nothing but gold—and It all came from our old digging. You ought to have stayed. We had no trouble. Bagsby was an old fool!" All the time he was drag ging me along by the arm toward the crowd at the bar. Barry maintained an air of owlish gravity. "Where's Missouri Jones?" I In quired. but I might as well have asked <ltone mountains. McXally chat- Ted on, excited, his blue eyes dane ig, bragging over and over about hi* wo horse loads of gold. The crowd took his whisky, laughed .-ith him and tried 6hrewdly to pump im as to the location of his diggings. tcNally gave them no satisfaction here, but even when most hilarious etained enough sense to put them off he track. As will bo imagined, I was most un asy about the whole proceeding and ried quietly to draw the two men off. "Xo, sir," cried McXally, "not any! :es' struck town and am goin' to have i time!'' in which determination be vas cheered by all the bystanders. I '.id not know where to turn. Johnny .vas away on one of his trips, end )anny Randall was not to be found, •'inally Inspiration served me. "Come down first and see Yank," I :rged. "Poor old Yank Is crippled nd can't move." That melted them at once. They un- Jed their long suffering animals, and •ve staggered off down the trail. On the way down I tried, but in rain, to arouse them to a sense of Sanger. "You've let everybody in town know .-ou have a lot of dust," I pointed out McXfelly merely laughed recklessly. "Good boys!" he cried. "Wouldn't harm a fly!" And I could veer him to uo other point of view. Barry agreed to everything, very solemn and very owlish. We descended on Yank like a storm. I will say that McXally at any time was irresistible and irrepressible, but especially so in his cups. We laughed ourselves sick that afternoon. The Morenas were enchanted Under in structions. and amply supplied with dust, Morena went to town and re turned with various bottles. Senora Morena cooked a fine supper. In the meantime I, as apparently the only re sponsible member of the party, un saddled the animals and brought their burdens into the cabin. Although Mo Nally's statement as to the loads con sisting exclusively of gold was some what of an exaggeration, nevertheless the cantinas were very heavy. Xot knowing what else to do with them. 1 thrust them under Yank's bunk. The evening was lively, I win con fess It and under the influence of it my caution became hazy. Finally, when I at last made my way back to my own camp, I found myself vastly surprised to discover Yank hobbling along by my side. I don't know why he came with me. and I do not think he knew either. Probably force of habit At any rate, we left the other four to sleep where they would I re member we had some difficulty In find ing places to lie Good Printing The Telegraph Printing Co. AAI V. The Last Straw. TOE suu was high when we awoke. We were not feeling very fresh, to say the least, and we took some little time to get straightened around. Then we went down to the Morena cabin. 1 am not going to dwell €>ll what we found there. All four of Its Inmates had been killed with buckshot and the place ransacked from end to end. Ap parently the first volley had killed our former partners and Senora Morena as they lay. Morena had staggered to his feet and halfway across the room. The excitement caused by this fright ful crime was intense. Every man quit work. A great crowd assembled. Morton as sheriff was very busy, and loud threats were uttered by his satel lites as to the apprehension of the murderers. The temper of the crowd, however, was sulleu. No man dared trust his neighbor, and yet every hon est breast swelled with impotent in dignation at this wholesale and un provoked massacre. No clew was pos sible. Everybody remembered, of course, how broadcast and publicly the fact of the gold had been scatter ed. Nobody dared utter his suspicions if he had any. The victims were buried by a large concourse tlmt eddied aud hesitated and muttered 4ng after the graves bad been filled in. Vaguely it was felt that the condition of affairs was in tolerable. but no one knew how it was to be remedied. Nothing definite could be proved agsfinst any one, and yet 1 believe that every honest man knew to a moral certainty at least the cap tains and instigators of the various outrages. A leader could have raised an avenging mob, provided he could have survived the necessary ten min utes! We scattered at last to our various occupations. I was too much upset to work, so I returned to where Yank was smoking over the fire. He had, as near as I can remember, said not one-'word since the discovery of the tragedy. On my approach he took his pipe from his mouth. "Nothing done?" he inquired. "Nothing," I replied. "What is there to be done?" "Don't know," said he, replacing his pipe; then around the stem of it, "1 was fond of those people." "So was I," I agreed sincerely. 'Have you thought what a lucky es .*ape you yourself had?"

Preserves at Small Cost Not the least useful hint in *.hess menus for reducing the cost of living is the insistence on the value of dried, fruit as an article of diet,. Properly cooked, these dried fruits are delic ious and, quite apart from the differ ence in expense, are much more ■ wholesome for a steady diet than rich ! preserves or even canned fruits. Apri cots. peaches, plums and pears are all i prepared by the evaporated process, i Use enameled ware in cooking; that can not be affected by the acid of the fruit. Put the fruit in an enameled I ware saucepan and cover well with j cold water. Put on the back of the j stove and let it heat slowly and sim mer for a coupie of hours. When the fruit is thoroughly soft, mash with a spoon and let it coolt until the water is cooked away enough to make a smooth, rich jam. Add one table spoonful of sugar to a quart of tlio jam. The peeled fruits although they cost a trifle more than the others are as cheap in the end as they require less sugar in cooking. Cranberry in New Role Cranberries to most people mean only a ,lam or jelly to be eaten with poultry. They are differently regarded in Europe. One of the ways in which 1 they are there utilized might well bo copied here. Cranberry juice which | may be "put up" and kept for any j length of time makes an especially delicious water ice and a delightful addition to summer drinks. To pre pare this juice place the cranberries in an enameled ware preserving ket tle, add sugar in the proportion of one-half pound to one quart of the berries. Pour on just enough water to keep the berries from scorching. Cook until the berries are perfectly soft and easily crushed. Strain through an ordinary jelly-bag and bottle very hot. The cranberry has a strong acid and it is important that it should be cook ed in enameled ware. In that way there is no danger of any metallic action nor of the juice being darkened In color.
