Peal after peal of laughter cut

I were watching the whole thing

3f Tom Mason leading me over to

ows and holding water against my

vildly:
"Donna Anna! Are you all right?
(Vhat have I done Say you forgive

FRIDAY EVENING.
died In a moment. And as I tried
to push suspicion away there swept
over me a perfect tornado of fury
at this man who was trying to win
me by making mo doubt my Jim.
And then came hysteria—wild
laughter. But at last I managed
to get myself under control, and,
fixing my eyes on Tom Mason with
wfjat I felt must be a gaze of cold
scorn, I said, curtly:
"Will you please go at once?"
"I can't," he muttered. Then his
tone changed to one of actual plead;
ing. "Listen, Mrs. Jimmies I've
boen mad. I've always liked you
too well, perhaps. And to-night I
had a drink or two more than I
could carry. When I saw Jim rush
ing out without waiting for y.ou,
something broke loose in my veins.
But It's under control now. I'll
never again offend"
On the word, he flung across the
room to the carved chest. Suddenly
there was a sliding, grating sound
—then a thud. He turned, flushed
with' triumph:
"Those were the koys—the dupli
cate keys," he said. "You see, you'll
never have to be afraid again. I hid
them in the secret confpnrtmeru of
the chest, whore even you coußln't
get them nnd gfve them to me—if
you relented."
"Will you get out of here?" I
cried.
"Hello, what's this?" cried Jim's
voice from the doorway.
I had been so distraught that I
hadn't even heard him come in. But
now I turned, and holding out my
arms, wearily groped my way across
tho room and clung to Htm. shaken
with dry sobs.
"What's this? What's this?" cried
Jim again. "Maybe you're sane
enough to clear things up for me,
Tom. I leave my deserted home at
9.30 and come back* an hour later
to find my wife entertaining the
landlord, and either bored or fright
ened to tears. Have you come to
eject us?"
I lifted my tear-stained face from
Jim's shoulder.
"Is it only half-past ten?" I ask,
ed "I thought it was long past
midnight—it seemed hours I've
been waiting for you to come home."
Then Tom Mnson interrupted, tak
ing his bantering tone from Jim's:
"Well, Jim—perhaps I'd better do
a little explaining. There's a blue
robe over in that chest that I told
Mrs. Harrison she could use when
ever she liked. But to-night there's
a midnight Artists' Ball, and I
wanted the robe for a friend to
wear. I 'phoned a couple of times
—nobody home. So I decided to
come over and get the robe."
"That's not so!" 1 cried shrilly.
Jim drew me closer, and laid his
hand across my mouth.
"Go on, Mason," he said, "Anne

didn't realize what she was saying."
"Mrs. Harrison was frightened to
find me here when she came in.
And displeased. She had come to
think of that robe as hers," con
tinued Tom Mason, smoothly. There
was a foolish little scene—and I
resorted to flattery and laid on the
compliments a bit thick, 1 dare say.
But surely y6u know your child
hood playmate well enough, and
your wife, too - so that you must
understand I didn't dream Mrs. Har
rison would take my nonsense
seriously. You can't think I meant
to —affront her?"
"Of course, old man, I'm sorry
there's been a misunderstanding,"
agreed Jim, suavely. "The little
girl's tired. Her first day of can
tcening did her up. Will you mind
taking the costume for the Artists'
Ball and running along. Tommy?"
"Oh. I couldn't take it now." pro
tested Tom Mason.
I backed out of Jim's arms and
turned to blaze out at both of the
men:
"I am tired and I'm hysterical,
too —but It's not from the canteen.
It's from the impudonce—and lies
of Tom Mason. Now you take your
blue robe and get out of here." '
"Anne!" protested Jim. "Anne!"
Tom Mason turned to him with
a shrug:
"You see she is hysterical.
Something must have happened be
fore she got here. Those canteens
close at eight and It was ten when
our encounter began. Sorry for
the misunderstanding, Jim. If there's
anything I can do?"
"Nothing, Tom. Nothing. Anne
will be herself in the morning—and
as sorry as we are for this—shall
we call it a comedy of errors?"
Then Tom Mason said good night
| as calmly as if his tissues of lies
had been true, and left me alone
with Jim.
"And now," demanded Jim cold
ly, "I'd be glad to hear the true
story of this evening's—adven
tures."

A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY

CHAPTER XXV
When Honora had proposed hav- j
ingf friends to dinner on Saturday
night, she had not anticipated that |
her sister would want to make a
function of it.
But Mildred welcomed eagerly
the opportunity to entertain with
Mrs. Higgins out of the way. Hon
ora had suggested that Arthur dine
here in pursuance of her determi
nation to throw the two young peo
ple together as much as possible.
Since Arthur and Mildred were des
tined to become engaged, Honora
wanted the thing accomplished soon.
In the buck of her mind was a de- |
sire to have the betrothal a settled \
fact before she herself could have
an opportunity to weaken in her
decision to crush her own feelings.
If Miss Parson could have made
the fourth member of the party,
that would have given Mildred and
Arthur a chance to talk together.
When Mildred vetoed this plan,
Honora had caught at the idea of
pleasing Arthur's parents by asking
them to dine with their son in the
Brent home.
Honora was disappointed at Mil- 1
dred's insistence that Tom Chand
ler make the sixth member of the
group, but, rather than fret her
sister, she yielded.
Upon her fell the responsibility
iof arranging the dinner. Katie was
an excellent maid, and well trained
by Mrs. Higgins, so the task was
' not as difficult as it might have
been—especially as she and Mildred
agreed on most points regarding
the menu.
"I suppose," Mildred said tenta
tively, watching the effect of her
words on her sister, "that Tom
Chandler always has wine with his
dinner at home. He probably
thinks most people do."
"Thep he'll learn he's mistaken
when lie comes here!" was Honora's
prompt rejoinder.
Mildred Again Selfish
Mildred's interest in the affair
centered in the two men. Honora
must devote herself to Mr. and Mrs.
Bruce. ' But she thought it wise
to utter a little warning to the
younger girl. This she did just be
fore dinner.
"Milly," she said gently, "remem
ber that the real guests of honor
to-night are Mr. and Mrs. Bruce.'
Try to be deferential to them and
not to do or say anything that would
shock them."
Milly laughed. "I'll behave my
self," she promised. "But I mean to
convince both Tom and Arthur that
I nni a charmer, and to keep them
guessing as to which one I like the
best. Of course, Mrs. Bruce thinks
I'm not good enough for her son.
She thinks that about every girl that
comes along."
"Hush—sh!" Honora warned as
the doorbell rang. "Hero they are
now!"
She had not seen Arthur since
their parting on the night of the
trip to Wlldwood, and during this
evening Hhe did not have a moment
alone with him. She was not sorry
that this whs the case.
She devoted herself especially to

Mrs. Bruce, listening to all the par- j
ticulars pf the Wildwood cousin's l
illness, and her improvement, with ;
as much interest as if the invalid'
had been a personal friend. In j
spite of this she managed to draw :
"7 r - Bruce into the conversation,
until he actually believed that he !
was entertaining her.
At table she succeeded in-keeping
the talk fairly general, and adroitly
interfered when Mildred would have ,
indulged in a tete-a-tete with either :
of the young men.
But when dinner was over and the j
party went into the living room, all I
Honora's efforts to rnakfe her sister !
converse with the elderly couple I
were in vain.
Mildred walked straight to a I
couch in the bay window and mo- I
tioned to Arthur to git on one side j
of her and to Tom to sit on the
other.
An Awkward Situation
Then; lowering her votce, she be- i
gan to tell a story that drew from i
Tom noisy outbursts of laughter,
and at which Arthur smiled with
amusement.
Honora was perplexed. She was j
too young and inexperienced to
know just how to cope with this I
awkward situation. Looking up. j
she caught Arthur's eye and he'
came quickly to her rescue.
"Mother." he said, jumping up
and crossing the room to where
Honora and his parents sat, "why
don't you ask Honora to play
something? She plays awfully
well, and she sings, too, you know."
"Indeed I do not!" the girl pro
tested. "I only play to amuse my
self sometimes."
"But she does sing sweetly,"
Mildred called from the bay win
dow.
"Do you, my dear?*' Mr. Bruce
questioned. Then, seeing Honora's
embarrassment,, he smiled. "For
give me for bothering you, but I
wonder if you know any of the old
fashioned songs such as I like. I
do not care for" rug-time."
"She sings some of the old songs
delightfully," Arthur declared.
"Ah, please sing, my dear," Mrs.
Bruce urged.
Not wanting to seem discourteous,
Honora compiled. She had never
sung in public, and only a little now
and then for her own enjoyment or
to please her sister and Mrs'. Hig
gins.
. But her voice was sweet, if not
strong, and as she sang several bal
lads that Mr. Bruco had known
in his youth He and his wife thought
the performance charmtng.-
When they arose to take their
departure Mildred approached them
to say good night.
"I wish wc cpuld have seen more
of you, Milly," Mrs. Bruce remarked.
Then, potting Honora's nrm, "this
dear child has given us a delightful
evening." ,
"Mrs. Bruce is a, cat," was Mil
dred's comment later to Honora.
"But, any way, I had a chance to
compare the two men. I like Ar
thur better than Tom —as n steady
diet. But I am not dropping Tom
yet. Arthur's people like you better
than they do nte. And I can't say
that I blnme them."

Cincinnati authority says
your troublesome corns
just loosen and fall off
Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns
or corns between the toeH just loos
en in their sockets and fall off the
next day if you will apply directly
upon the corn a few drops of a
drug called freezone, says a Cincin
nati authority.
You merely put a drop or two of
this freezone on the tender, touchy
corn to-day and instantly the corn
stops hurting, then to-morrow some
time you may find the old torturous
pest somewhere in your stocking,
having fallen off entirely without a
particle of soreness, pain or irrita
tion. The skin surrounding and be
neath the former corn will he as
healthy, pink and smooth as the
palm of your hand.
A quarter ounce of freezone is
sufficient to rid one's feet of every
corn and callus, and any druggist
will charge but a few cents for it.
It is a compound made from ether.
