    " When a Girl Marries"
By ArffITYHSLK
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
, CHAPTER LX
(Copyright, 1918, by Kings Feature
Syndicate, Inc.)
For the next two days Jim had
a bad time of it. When the ice
pack had reduced the swelling of his
ankle Dr. Kellogg strapped his foot
up at an acute angle which looked
agonizing, but was needed to take
all weight and strain off the liga
ments Jim had torn.
"He's not to see a soul," were the
doctor's parting instructions. "Rest
and quiet for forty-eight hours
ought not to be a hardship to a lad
with two or three smashed ribs
ready to start up a rumpus."
"Say, docs the old fool generally
prescribe a week in a sanatorium!
for a splinter in the finger?" Jim
demanded irascibly the very mo
ment the doctor was gone. "I'll bet
Terry thinks I'm a dub!"
"lie doesn't!" I tried. "He knows
how sick you are "
"That's right—tell a real man
that I'm a tender blossom dying of
a torn ligament. Say, Anne, why in
blazes do you shut the door every
time you go to the phone? What
are you saying about me, anyway,
that you're so precious careful to
keep me from hearing?
"Oh, Jim, the doctor said you
were to have quiet, and I thought
hearing me talk over the phone
might tire you! It never stops ring
ing, you know."
'lt doesn't? Well, then, more peo
ple must have called up than you
told me about. Let's see—Betty,
Terry, Sheldon, Tom Mason, Dicky
Royce, and Pat Dalton, youNsaid,
didn't you?"
"Yes, and Evvy, too, and Sally,
and the folks from the cap fac
tory," I cataloged stupidly.
"Mot—my sisters?"
"That I took for gr.anted you'd
know, Jim. The phone from the
Rochambeau must just ring us au
tomatically I think they call
every hour."
Jim smiled happily; all his Irri
tation vanished.
"I didn't think Virginia would
stay mad at me," he murmured like
a little boy. "Say, nurse, I've a no
tion if you'd pull down the blinds
1 could sleep now. And shut the
door; after all, there's no .precent
age in hearing you recite answers
to those phone calls."
This was the second day, and
from that moment Jim got steadily
DANDRUFF GOES!
HAIR GETS THICK,
WAVY, BEAUTIFUL
Save your hair! Double its beauty
in a few moments.
Try this!
Hair stops coming out and every
particle of dandruff
disappears.
Try as you will, after an applica
tion of Danderine, you can not find
a single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will . not itch,
but what will please you most, will
be after a few weeks' use, when
you see new hair, fine and downy at
first —yes —but really new hair—
growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine immediately
doubles tne beauty of your hair. No
difterence how dull, faded, brittle
and scraggy, just moisten a clotli
with Danderine and carefully draw
it through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. The effect
Is immediate and amazing—your
hair will be light, fluliy and wavy,
and have an appearance of abund
ance; an incomparable lustre, soft
ness and luxuriance, the beauty and
shimmer of true hair health.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter for a few cents, and
prove that your hair is as pretty and
soft as any—that it has been neglect
ed or Injured by careless treatment
that's all.
Danderine is to the hair what fresh
showers of rain and sunshine are to
vegetation. It goes right to the
roots, invigorates and strengthens
them. Its exhilarating, stimulating
and life-producing properties cause
the hair to grow long, strong and
beautiful.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
better. But I had Jied, for though
> the Rochambeau did phone up al
most hourly, It was Phoebe, not
Virginia, who called.
' On tlie third day Jim was to be
- permitted to see one guest. I knew
s who would be his choice, but things
, didn't work out just as I expected,
for Betty phoned to say that she
1 and Virginia had talked it over and
3 had decided that the most important
person for Jim to see was Terry.
'Terry's such a darling—so placid
and English, Betty declared. "He'll
s be over at three and I'm coming
t along to visit you, and have you
meet our beloved Anthony Norreys
who has just come back from
1 Canada."
5 I didn't like any of it. How
dared Virginia discuss Jim and me
with Betty? What right had she to
scheme and plan without consulting
i' me? Was this her way of glossing
over the fact that she wasn't gen
erous enough to come and visit her
' brother—until, perhaps, he apolo
gized for the grave crime of de
fending his wife against her rude
ness? And, finally, why should
Betty be bringing a strange man
. to call on me now?
Some of my questions were an
p swered soon enough.
In angry resentment I waited the
coming of our guests—and I felt a
J sign of my feelings Tlaming into my
cheeks when I opened the door at
|t three and found Terr(- Winston
. standing there with a strange man
, —but no Betty.
Terry presented Anthony Norreys,
and then began nervously to explain
that Mrs. Dalton had thought it
| best for Betty not to come.
"Because we —er—three would
! probably get on better without an
other —er woman," he brought out
' jerkily. "Oh, Mrs. Jimmie, I'm all
set for seeing the lad —may I trot
\ right in?"
Almost on the word he popped out
of the room, leaving .me to face the
I man so strangely brought to my
, house.
Anthony Norreys was slightly
I over medium height and thin almost
to emaciation. He looked actually
ill, but for all this he suggested
strength—not weakness. The sweet
ness of his mouth was belied by a
, chin so rugged anddominant that It
! made mc a bit afraid until the one
. illuminating feature of his almost
, homely face caught and held my
eyes. And then 1 was conscious of
i nothing but his eyes—ice-blue, keen
and penetrating, but, above all,
honest unflinchingly, uncompro
. misingly honest. Strength, sweet
ness and honesty—they repeated
themselves in Anthony Norreys'
voice when he spoke.
"Mrs. Harrison, I've come to ask
a favor of you. I'can use a man
over at my place confidential
assistant. Winston and my friend
Betty Bryce say Jim Harrison is
1 the man I'm looking for, they say
it's his chance, but that I'll neves
be able to persuade him to take it
> unless I make him feel I'm in need
of a favor —not doing one. In a
way that's not quite true. I've a
wonderful man at the place I'm of
fering your husband. He under
stands" —
"Are you asking me to persuade
my husband to —steal this man's
job?" 1 interrupted hotly. "HaVej
Betty and Terry made you think
I'm so selfish that I'd be a party
to this scheme? Must I force Jim j
to accept charity and take the bread !
and butter out of another man's
mouth ?"
"Neither," replied Anthony Nor
reys quite without resentment. Dear
child, 1, too, am proud. But I'm go
ing to confide in you. See this glove
I wear? Well, It covers wood.
They got the good old right hand
back in the days when Terry and I
were together at Verdun. Your hus- J
band's ankle rather lays him off real
service, also. So if we two. can re
lease an able-bodied young Ameri
can like my assistant, it would .
make up—a bit. The\ government j
says I'm welcome to tny helper— (
and he'll stick. I'm buying for Eng
land —and some chap with a right ■
first has to keep the accounts, you \
see? Don't often gab about my |
I trouble like this. But I trust you. I
Some folks shrink from a man who's
maimed."
1 laid both my hands on the arm
above that bit of wood which was
a monument to what he had done i
for his country. Virginia had been I
right—it \vas better that Anthony [
Norreys and I hail talked alone.
"Thank you for just what you've
said. I'm proud you knew you
could say it. I won't gush, but I
don't feel as if that Hun bullet—
maimed you. Instead it may have
given you something ... 1 trust
you, too, Mr. Norreys, and I prom- |
ise that my pride won't come be- j

my husband can do to help each
other—and our countries.'

THE HEART BREAKER
A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY ■
By VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN DK WATER
CHAPTER X
"Satisfied"
That was the word that Mildred
had used this morning, and that was
the word that Honora repeated to
herself many times during the day.
Yes, she was almost satisfied —
now that she knew that Mildred
cared nothing for Arthur Bruce.
Nevetheless, the older sister was
sorry for the man—very sorry for
him. He was in love with Milly,
and her refusal must have pained
him cruelly.
Yet Mildred's remark last night had
shown Honora clearly and unexpect
edly how she herself felt about this
man who loved her sister.
For days she had been conscious
of her growing interest in him. It
was not until Mildred's heartless
speech told her that he had been
hurt that Honora was conscious of
the strength of her own feeling for
him.
As Mildred discussed him so care
lessly and llippantly, Honora's affec
tion for him sprang suddenly to arms
and she found herself intensely an
gry that any one could have wound
ed him. Then, with keen self-anal
ysis, she appreciated that, mingled
with this indignation, had been a
pang of jealousy because to Mildred
had been offered that which seemed
to Honora the most precious thing
in the world.
Last night she had not believed
that Mildred had definitely refused
Arthur Bruce. She was sure that
the girl was only playing with him
and that later she would accept him.
For, of course, she loved him. She
could not help it.
All these thoughts had kept the
older girl awake late in the night
and called her from her slumber by
dawn.
Mildred's confession this morning
hud made the whole affair look dif
ferent.
Certainly the child had seemed to
lead Arthur on to a profession of
affection. But it was quite evident
that she did not love him. Honora
did.
Xo Longer to Be Considered
Mildred's sister had a right now
to acknowledge this love. It was
so strong that it brought with it a
conviction that by its very strength
it must, sooner or later, attract to
her its object.
Since Mildred was no longer to be
considered, there was no disloyalty
or dishonor in another girl's think
ing affectionately of the discarded
suitor or in accepting any attentions
he might chance to offer her.
Honora knew that Arthur Bruce
liked her. When they were chil
dren he found her a more congenial
companion than Milly. Milly had
cared nothing about books, while Ar
thur and Honora hud been invet
erate readers. Milly had been timid
about playing rough games; Honora
had been a tomboy. Therefore Ar
thur had seemed to lie the older
Brent girl's especial friend.

college the situation changed en
tirely.
Mildred had grown very pretty,
and the childlike quantities and tem
pers that had irrritated the lad ap
pealed to the man.
But now Honora, as she thought
of these things, was sure that ap
peal had been but temporary. The
boy had been father to the man,
and Arthur Bruce's character and
natural ta'Stes would eventually lead
him back to what he had preferred
in his younger days.
Until then she would try not to
think too much about him, but wait
for tlio time she was certain would
come.
Youth is sanguine and must be
served. It is also sentimental. A
line of a verse she had once read
came to Honora's mind.
" 'I know my own will come to
me,' " she whispered.
She was on her way home from
the office, and did not know that
she was smiling until she was star
tled by a voice at her elbow.
"Good afternoon!" Arthur Bruce
greeted her. "Why are you looking
so happy?"
"Oh" she exclaimed. "Why—did
I —lrnean —I don't knqw!"
"Well," the man said, falling into
step beside her, "whether you know
what you are happy about or not—
it must be nice to feel as satisfied as
you look,"
Honora Agrees
That was tho very word that Milly
had used this morning.
"Yes," Honora agreed, "I am sat
isfied. At least." she added, "I am
satisfied about some things. About
others I am not."
"And 1 urn not satisfied about any
thing!" Arthur declared bitterly.
"I suppose that most fellows find
that life is not going to be a bit
what they had hoped."
The pair had turned out of the
crowded main street and were stroll
ing along a wide avenue that led
to the street on which the Brents
lived.
"You are going out of your way,"
Honora reminded her companion.
"We just passed, your corner."
"I know," ho said, "but 1 would
like to walk with you if yon don't
object. If you do, 1 can go home."
She thought he was joking until
she glanced at his face. Then she
saw that it .was clouded by unhap
piness.
"Certainly I don't mind," she re
turned. "Why should I?"
"If you don't, your toleration of
my society is the first pleasant thing
that has happened to-day."
"That's too bad," she sympathized.
"Has business gone so hard—and
on the first day, too?"
He tried to laugh. "It wouldn't,"
he admitted, "if 1 had been able to
keep, my thoughts on it. But I
started wrong—all out of sorts—so
it seemd infernally hard. '
"I am sorry!" shosaid.
The words were "not much. Still
she could see that the cloud lifted a
little as she uttered them.

Advice to the Lovelorn
HV BEATRICE FAIRFAX
CHANGE OF SWEETHEARTS?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am 24 and in love with a girl of
20. I have recently found out that this
girl is in love with another man. We
still remain the best of friends. I
feel almost sure lier oldest sister is
in love with me, but 1 care for Iter
only as a friend. Do you think it will
lie right for me to ask the oldest girl
to marry me an dtrust to time to
change my love? I am now in the
United States Army, ami I itnd 1
really miss her. Do you think that is
a sign that 1 am falling in love with
her?
S. O. L.
Y'ou seem to lie a most uncommonly
adaptable lover. But lightning
changes in the* matter of love are
surely dangerous, lest one repent
afterward, so I earnestly advise you
not to propose to your ex-sweet
heart's sister until you are entirely
sure that you are in love with her.
t DIVIDED HEART
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
1 have been going out with a young
man for two years and 1 like him
very much. This feeling is recipro
cated. But lately I have met a man
who attracts me very much. I do not
seem able to get him out of my mind.
I am afraid to see my old friend, as I
should feel very uneasy with him. I
don't want to lose him, hut if I go on
like this I will.
S. C.
The "why" of it is clear enough,
don't you think so? You are plainly
lulling in iove with your new friend.
Whether or not this Is a calamity
would seem to depend on whether y'ou
are engaged to tho first friend and
have believed yourself in love with
him. If you do owe hint no other al
legiance thnn that of friendship, the
development of a serious attachment
to another man need not imply a

Waste of Natural
Gas and Gasoline
Clarksburg, W. Va.—Two hun
dred million cubic feet of natural
gas and thousands of gallons of
gasoline are being wasted needlessly
in West Virginia every day, accord
ing to Dr. i. C. White, state geolog
ist, who has launched a "gus conser
vation campaign."
The wasted gas, which contains an
excellent quality t>f gasoline, es
capes from the casing heads of oil
and gas wells, and according to Dr.
White, could he saved if oil and gas
concerns operating in the state
would install proper machinery and
lay more pipe line. He says the gas
oline could be extracted front the
gas and the residual gas then turn
ed into the service pi*>e lines.
"Althoua the waste of gas in lite
state is alarming at this time, when
the supply gives evidence of peter
ing out, it is nothing compared to
the waste twenty years ago," Dr.
White says that when he was ap
pointed state geologist in 1897 he
made a visit to a natural gas com
pany which has the largest pumping
station in the world.
"From the tops of the hills near
the station," says Dr. White, "you
could hear the gus roaring in all di
rections. You could hardly heur
yourself spaak. Not less than 500,-
000,000 cubic feet of it was daily
going into the air from this one
station alone."
Valuable Metals That
Have Been Produced
Monterey, Mex. —In a report just
issued by the Department of In
dustry, Commerce and labor of
Mexico, statistics are given of the
mineral production of this country
for the year 1917. It shows that
there ure in Mexico a tqtal of 25,-
063 mining.properties. The gold and
silver mines ure most numerous,
numbering 9,840. Silver mines num
ber, 5,804; lead and silver, 4,281,
nnd gold, 1,800. One mine produces
jacinth, nine mines produce opals,
one mine produces bismuth, two
properties produce rock salt, fifty
three sulphur, thirty-nine manga
nese, two molybdenum, one mine
produces fluorspar and 119 mines
produce mercury.
The State of Mexico occupied the
first place in gold product in the
last year, having produced 2,123
kilos (737 grams) of the metal;
Hidalgo was next, with 1,855 kilos,
and, though in former times it wus
famous for its output of gold-bear
ing ores, Guanjuato produced only
nine kilos of gold. The state of Hi
dalgo took first place in the produc
tion of silver, with 336,160 kilos, in
1917; Aguasalientes is next with
103,252 kilos. The production of the
mines, in kilos, was as follows:
Gold, 5,788; silver, 648,684; cop
per, 141,528; lead, 26,769; zinc, 3,-
388, and antimony, 2,140.

By this time the conductor begun
to look foolish. After a pase he
again repeated: "Miss, your fare.".

I'm good looking at home, but I don't
see why you want to say it out loud.",
LITTLE TALKS BY
BE A TRICE FAIRFAX
Some women are "born moth
ers."
We all know that. And we are
ail sufficiently worshippers of the
beautiful maternal principle to ad
mire these women profoundly and
to recognize that their children are
blessed.
This, of course, in case they
marry. But women who have by
nature the wonderful gift of moth
ering don't always marry, by any
means. And in that case we pay
a great deal less attention to them
and sometimes disregard their gift
altogether.
Now inasmuch as so many born
mothers remain single, and as those
who marry are unfortunately rather
a small percentage of all mothers,
it comes about thai a multitude of
babies who deserve better of life
fall into pretty inexpert hands.
it happens all the time that
really high grade babies, babies who
look and act as if they Knew the
difference become the charge of
hopelessly amateur mothers—moth
ers who didn't learn anything about
mothering in advance, and who
probably never will learn very much
through experience. <
That is to say, true motherhood
isn't a physical thing. You can be
the parent of a child without Deing
its mother in the sense I mean.
You have to make an effort and
learn how.
And this is, I think, because we
women have had a totally wrong
attitude about motherhood all these
years. Mothers, even the best ones,
haven't fet any obligation to teach
mother-wisdom to tlieir daughters.
Even when they have patiently
taught them housekeeping, even
when they have insinuated a good
•deal of age-old instruction as to the
deft, secret management of hus
bands, they have never breathed a
word as to the science ana tne art
of inotherhoo,d.
The idea has been that women
become mothers by a sort of mir
acle, without the slightest prelim
inary training. The sight of their
first baby, the sound of his earliest
cry, has been supposed not only to
fill their hearts with a big, sufficing
mother-IoV, which perhaps it does,
but. to fill their brains with an en
cyclopedic amount in very special
knowledge in regard to child-food,
child-clothing, child-hygiene, child
training and all the rest of it. But
have you ever known a case where
this happened?
Women are ignorant about the
proper care of children before their
babies como are unfortunately
just as much so afterward. And
these are the cases in which the
babies and nature together have to
get along as best they can.
What wo need is an ever so much
more general education of girls for
motherhood. Not a sCntimerttal,
but a practical, education.
The Risk of Birth.
Babies oughtn't to have to take
the terrible risk they do in being
born. It isn't fair to them. Where
there is one chance that a baby
will happily drop into the lap of a
parent with a natural gift for
mothering, there must be at least
nine chances that he will make a
connection with the mother whose
talents run to housekeeping or to
office work and who won't know
any more about milk botles and
infant psychology than its father
does.
We know now that the old way
of leaving these most important
matters to chance was a very se
rious mistake and that it has cost
the lives of nobody knows how
many babies. I wish every young
mother were so convinced of this
that she would see that her first
baby didn't find her unprepared.
Not that she isn't sure to make
some sort of preparation. She will
embroider its dresses and hemstitch
its pillow slips and crochet lace for
its bonnet. But I mean sensible
preparations, preparations that are
really in the interest of the baby's
health and all-round well-being.
It is true that as conditions now
are, a young woman must bestir
herself more or less to acquire this
special education. it isn't any
body's business in particular to see
that she gets it. There aren't any
official channels through which she
can get it—that is, all of it, though
the Children's Bureau at Washing
ton does a great deal and in the
larger cities highly useful matern
ity centers are developing.
Community Babies.
But far-seeing people say that a
day is coming when all this will be
changed, when States and com
munities will stand ready to help
mothers with their motherhood.
For, after all, the community ought
to be just as much interested in
having healthy babies born and
well brought up, as the mother is.
Perhaps even" more so. So why
shouldn't it smooth the way? ,
DECEMBER 4, 1918.
There are various ways of doing
this. State schools of motherhood
have been spoken of, where every
young girl of eighteen or twenty
could get year's instruction at the
State's expense in this business of
mothering.
Think of the saving in health and
in time and in strength and in pure
joy if every young mother were
trained for her job. Think .of the
panics and the baby-sicknesses and
the maternal breakdowns that could
be avoided and the strong men and
women that would be saved to the
world.
Another scheme that has been a
great deal discussed is that of a
grant from the State to every
mother for every baoy. By this
pleasant arrangement the State
would he a godfather to every
child and no mother would be pre
vented for lack of money from giv
ing her baby a good start in life.
By all means there is promise of
better, safer days ahead for babies.
Meanwhile, are you the kind of
mother that a really wise and en
lightened baby would like to begin
life with?
If not, why not make haste to put
yourself in this desirable class?

Your Health Depends
Upon Your Kidneys
Many organs take part in assimi
lation of tod. and a number are ac
tive in eliminating those portions of
the food which are not taken into
the blood for the upbuilding of the
body. Of the diminutive organs, the
liver and tho kidneys are of major
importance, and are most likely to
be overworked and become diseased.
When such is the ease, various trou
bles of a digestive and ellminatlve
character occur, and such troubles

some relief. Warner's Safe Kidney
and Liver Remedy was compounded
over forty years ago to help equalize
tho work .of both kidneys and liver.
How successful It has been is evi
denced by its widespread sale and
