LJUI <3tfvd all the Rsiwilxi jj^PfPf The Plotters A New Serial W East and West By YlJSliita Trrkur Taa <lr Witt* CHAPTER XXn Copyright, 1918, Star Company So aTsor(xM had Elisabeth Wade been in the information acquired -hrough listening at her window on the night of the automobile ride that it was not until the next day that she appreciated that she had been guilty of the dishonorable act of eavesdropping. The appreciation of this came to her as she debated with herself as :o whether or not she should write to Douglas and tell him what she had overheard. If she did this, she must confess that she had deliberately listened *.o a conversation not meant tor her ?ars. Douglas would disapprove of this, yet would not condemn her. He was not the kind of brother to chide her for a thing s|e had done un hinkinsly. Even in her own mind she did not feel that she had been dishon orable. The significance of the in t'Armation acquired cast into shadow the importance of her thoughtless savesdropping. # When she reached this point in her cogitations she took up her pen to tell her brother what she had learned. Then she hesitated. What could he do? He had no money. Even .f he were aware of the extent to which Amos Chapin's plans had gone, Douglas would bo practically powerless to check them. His an ger and anxiety could take no tan gible form. They would but inter fere with his peace of mind, and, perhaps, make it harder for him to | perform his ordinary duties. No. on the whole, she would not tell him all the facts. In stead, she *rote a shorter letter than she had jxpected to write, saying that she was well, that Butler continued to j improve and that she hoped prac- | tice in Riverhill was growing. "The more 1 see and hear," she added in a postscript, "the more cer tain am I that Amos wants to buy :he farm.

This blood must contain about as much iron as there is in i common railroad spike. The red blood corpuscles must be fed Dn iron to have that rich, red :olor. The nerves are fed on the red blood corpuscles, so when you feel tired, worn out before the day is half over, when pim ples show on neck or face, it's the danger signal, time to repair the blood cells. It is fortunate that Dr. Pierce and his staff of able physicians at the Surgi cal Institute in Buffalo have <ound a combination of iron and herbal extracts that gives the TUESDAY EVENING, Bringing Up Father Copyright, 1918, Intenrational News Service *— * *■* By McMa can to make tt possible for you to i retain it." A Po6r Outlook Douglas Wade wrote back prompt ly. So in earnest was he that he t neglected his usual precaution of j enclosing his letter to his sister in an outer envelope addressed to Amos Chapin. Or his doubt of the farmer's honor may have made him hesitate to enclose in an envelope to Chapin a letter of the nature of that which Elizabeth received. For in this epistle Wade acknowl edged that he was near the end of ] his resources. There was still in the j bank enough money to enable him' and his sister to live very plainly for several months to come. But then— what? "This is a discouragingly healthy I town," the writer complained. "I j have enough patients to keep me I from starvation, but you must re- | member that at this rate several | years must before I have a paying practice. That, my dear, is what X need to maintain an appear ance of prosperity and to do' what I I want to do Sor you. I am telling 1 you all this because it is your right to know it. Yet I am not discour aged. I am living only one day at a ! time now. Suraly. with so much at stake, with my future happiness de pendent upon my success, something will materialize. "It keeps up my courage to hear that Butler's seemingly incurable case is so plainly curable. I dare not let him stop the outdoor life and work yet. He must stay on the farm until he is perfectly well. Were he to return here now he might re lapse into the same old nervous con dition from which we have pulled him. "But remember one thing. If he comes home completely cured. nw reputation is made. Think how much depends upon the outcome of my scheme —and this depends upon you! So keep up your couarge." Elizabeth Wade read this letter as she sat on the front seat of the ear Clifford Chapin had hired. He had driven her and his mother into Midland, that Mrs. Chapin might buy some neded groceries.

Elizabeth Is Silent After Mrs. Chapin's shopping had been completed. Clifford drove the car around to the post office and brought th 6 mail out and handed it to Elizabeth. Eater, Elizabeth took advantage jof his absence in a cigar store, ! where he had i|one to secure what he termed "some smokes," to read ■ her letter slowly ana thoughtfully. As the man returned and took his seat beside her, she slipped the let ! ter into its envelope and tucked it i into the belt of her dress. ] What she had read had given her | food for deep reflection, and she | was unusually silent until Clifford | aroustd her to a realization of her | own changed demeanor. "Mother!" he called back over his ! shoulder, "Doesn't Lizzie's chatter make your head ache? Isn't she a persistently noisy young person?" Mrs. Chapin smiled indulgently. "Clifford, you are so naughty!" she chided tenderly. "Don't tease Liz zie! Let her .alone." "All right," the man said, watch ing the girl's face. "When a young lady gets a letter from her best young man she likes to think about it in silenco for a while—eh. Liz zie " Elizabeth did not smile. Instead • she frowned slightly. "I wonder," she said, "why some people always think that the only letter a girl cares about must be from some man to whom she has taken a fancy. It so happens that this letter Is not one of that kind." "I suppose not." Her companion raised his eyebrows skeptically. "From your sister, 4 perhaps?" he teased. "It might be from my sister if I had one!" Elizabeth Wade retorted. 1 "But it so happens I haven't."

HARRISBURG 9SB& TELEGRAPH 0 MAKING THE MOST OF >-s OUR CHILDREN U A Series of Pl Parents WW By Ray C. Beery, A.8., MJL President of the Parents Association. \ NO. 3 OVERCOMING SELFISHNESS V WHEN your child touches a hot stove or lets a hammer fall on his fingers, he Is shocked in an unpleasant by immediate physical pain. The pain following so quickly, is associated with the act, with the result that he will be more cautious in the future. In other words, he has taught himself how to act in relation to the hot stove and the hammer because of the immediate results in dealing with these partic ular things. Unfortunately, when you consider moral traits, nature does not produce results so quickly—or perhaps we should say that the immediate results of morally good or bad acts are not such as to influence children and pre vent similar conduct in the future. Therefore, you as a parent muet so manage that the child is immediately rewarded in some way for all moral that are to be encouraged. You must, however, make a distinc tion between allowing the child to get the idea that he is being rewarded by you and simply treating him In a natural way, which will not suggest the idea of reward but which never theless will havs an Influence upon his future behavior. Let us consider a case of the selfishness. "My boy is getting too selfish for any use," one mother said to me. "He simply has to be cater ed to all the time. He never shares anything with his broth- (Copyrighted. 1918, by th e Pnrenta \ *so<iation, Idc> ( •> FASHION'S (By Annabel Worthlngton) I J A dear little apron to Veep the little . fO-** maid's dresses clean and to make her Mill , i'i n tpfJ look pretty besides is sketched in No. T.I I 5556.

( In the first place, never call atten tion to the selfish trait. Suggestion plays a very large part in curing or i intensifying the habit. For example, a fellow in college was reminded by his room-mate one day that he was selfish. The result was that this fel low became ten times more selfish i after his attention had been called to I the trait than he ever had been be , fore. You will find that suggestion oper ates even more strongly in the case of children. If you tell* your child , he is selfish, and permit him to think of himself as selfish, you make , it muoh easier for him to act selfish ly. Make frequent use of the positive suggestion that your child is gener i ous. Make the suggestion, of course, only after he has done something on which it is natural for you to put that Interpretation. Just as some parents spoil their children by telling them they never mind, so you can develop the ha>bit of unselfishness by looking carefully for all the small j . instances of generosity you can find and by suggesting that your children' are always generous and thought ful of others. Smiling and showing approval of little acts of kindness will serve as immediate rewards for those acts, with the result that similar acts in the future are encouraged. You are dally making your child's character.
