•"When a Girl "
ilj AW LISLE
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
By Ami Lisle.
CHAITER CI.XXIV.
After Plioebe left us, Neal and 1
began to wend our way through a
long strained visit—a reunion that
would, under normal conditions,
have been very happy. But now 1
actually went out to lunch in order
to avoid the intimacy of getting it
together in the kitchenette haunted
by whispering memories of the les
tive times when Neal and Phoebe
had peeled potatoes and performed
other transfigured tasks there.
When lunch was over. 1 offered
Neal his freedom, saying that 1 had
a little shopping to do. lie didn't
veto the offer by volunteering to
come along, but laughed out some
thing hitter anent job-hunting. So
we parted after agreeing to meet
again for dinner at the Rochambeau.
Our second meeting was tense and
self-conscious. Neal had found not
a hint of position and our dinner
was cut after the drab, ugly pattern
of the rest of our disappointing ilrst
day together. A malicious glint oi
nngrv red came into the pattern later.
"We'll call for Kvvy," said Neal.
as he handed me into my taxi. And
(hen I'll drop you at the f theater
where you meet your party."
So we stopped for Kvvy and 1 tried
to lind as much consolation in her
purry sweetness as Neal seemed to
discover. But our spirits moved up
and down in opposite directions like
a see-saw.
"Where'll we take you, Babbs?"
demanded Neal.
And when I'gave my directions,
culled from Biok West that after
noon. the red twist in the pattern of
our day showed. Neal and Kvvy
were going to the same theater.
Consequently, tip to the time when
.Tim arrived during the second act,
that box-party was, to me, a night
mare and farce combined. Not that

Jim's coming made it so much better,
but at least I was permitted to take
j my place with him In the back of
a the box. That saved me from sitting
'l next to- Phoebe and watching her
cast coy glances over her shoulder
'j I at Dick West, while—as I was ntis
r | crably conscious—down in the sixth
1 1 row Neal bent over Kvvy with an
,jjair of devotion that looked unpleas
antly genuine even to me. Also the
~ j back of the box took me away from

exclaiming with what I thought was
I bravado—not malice:
0 "Of course, Anne has told you the
t great news that her brother's back
i. in town again?"
[ 1 "By Jove! You don't say so?
t That's great. Why didn't you tell me, J
r Anne? I'll be glad to sec the boy. j
II ; T suppose he's come hack to his old 1
11 firm—well, I hope you told him to |

I went on. "Neal's a line lad, you'll

B j Again Phoebe spoke, but this time
; there could be no question of her

"If you're so anxious to see him,
i, you needn't wait. Neal's right down
- there in the sixth row with Evelyn

f "Oh, with your little chum. Well,

l j howdy," said Jim. "Come on, girls."

t with elaborate indifference.
But the expression on her face as
Jim called Kvvy her "little chum,"
was about the most encouraging
thing I had seen lliat day.
I Jim and I hurried out of the box
anil around the aisle to Neal. At
' sight of us, my brother's face lighted
with real pleasure, and it fairly kin

asserted Neal.

Advice to the Lovelorn
Wants to Tliink It Over
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have been going to a girl's house
for the last few years and take her
out quite often and loved her better I
than myself: so, a few weeks ago, I
proposed to her and she nceep'-j me.
After a few days she thought it over
and told me she changed her mind
about it. She told me that she will
think it over for two months end
she will treat me like n brother till
then. Now, I want to know how can
I make her give me a favorable ans
wer when the two months are over,
as I love her dearly? J. B.
Girls often ask for time to consider
the important question of whether
they shall marry. And I should not
despair, as you are still in a hopeful
position. It would seem that your
best chance lies in not trying to
over-persuade the young lady, till
the time she has set for a decision
is up. Wait the two months, then
take your answer like a man.
The Silkworm of the Sen
Many worms live in the sea, and
some of them are very beautiful
creatures. But the so-called "silk
worm of the sea"—the designation
being purely figurative and poetical
is a bivalve mollusc properly
I known as the pinna and native to the
Mediterranean. It spins a silk so
beautiful that in ancient days the
fiber was reserved exclusively for the
weaving of royal garments. This
silk is spun by the mollusc to furnish
an anchor line by which it fastens it
self to a convenient rock. It is ex
tremely fine and very strong.
Cleaned, dried and passed through
combs, it is reduced to delicate
threads of a lustrous brownish-yel
low hue, which are woven into
gloves, stockings and other articles.

A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY
Uy VIRGINIA TEIIIIUNE VAN UE WATER
CHAPTER EXXV ]
Copyright 1919, Star Company
Mildred Brent need not have declared j
that she would not attend Arnold ,
ISruce's funeral on Monday, for she had i
such a cold that she was not able to |
leave the house.
Her shoes and skirt had been wet |
when she returned from her Sunday |
walk with Tom Chandler, and she was j
chilled to the bone. She had changed i
her wet garments for dry ones, but the ]
mischief was done. She awoke on Mon- j
day morning with a sore throat and]
headache.
The doctor, summoned by Honora, j
said that the patient could get up, but j
must stay indoors for twenty-four j
hours.
"The air is cold and clear, but you are !
in a condition to add to your cold if j
you venture out," he explained.
Honora went down to the office in the ,
morning, arranging to be excused in j
the afternoon that she might attend !
Mr. Bruce's funeral. She did not come j
home to luncheon but went to the ser- !
vices directly from the office. |
Mrs. Higgins' sciatica was so far im- j
proved that she was able to busy her- j
self about sundry household duties, j
Therefore she had little time to de- |
vote to Mildred—even had the girl j
wanted her company.
But she did not. She preferred to be i
alone with her own thoughts. She !
was unhappy. Tom Chandler had left j
town last night—or she supposed ho j
had—and he had forgotten to give her :
his address. Of course it was the same i
that it had been when he was in camp, j
and she might write to him. Yet the I
recollection of his appointment with
the mysterious "Kitty" chilled her im- !
pulses. Was that girl really Tom's |
cousin? Mildred was determined to j
find out.
A Box for Mildred
At eleven o'clock in the morning a j
box from a florist's was left at the house j
for Miss Mildred Brent. Eagerly, she ;
unfastened the string and tore off the !
paper.
The box contained a huge bunch of
violets. There was no card with them.
"They are from Tom," the recipient
told herself happily. "Nobody else
would have sent them. Arthur is too
much occupied with his own troubles,
and, besides that, he is peeved with me.
X don't care if he is! Tom ordered these
sent as his parting message to me."
The idea warmed her heart toward
the soldier. He was handsome and in
love with her. This act of his proved
it. She tried to banish the thought of
the mysterious "Kitty."
The bedroom in which Mildred sat
was redolent with the odor of English
violets when Honora returned from the
cemetery that afternoon.
"How sweet these are!" she ex- j
claimed, bending over the blossoms and j
smelling them delightedly. "You know j
who sent them?"
"Of course I do," Mildred replied with j
a curtness that checked further com- j
ment.
Honora removed her hat and coat in |
silence. She looked so pale that her j
sister was moved to mention the fact. |
"You seem worn out. What's the
matter?"
"I am depressed, that's all," Honora i
said. "Such services as I have attended 1
are trying to the body and spirits." j
"Yes, I hate funerals 1" Mildred ;
agreed. "Bid everything go off all |
right? I suppose I was not even :
missed?"
"Mrs. Bruce asked for you. She was j
sorry you were ill. Arthur is coming in |
to see you about five o'clock."
"He need not trouble himself!" Ar- j
thur's betrothed declared. But Honora ;
made no rejoinder.
All Inflective Costume
Nor did she give any advice when
an hour later, Katie announced to Mild- ]
red that "Mr. Arthur Bruce was call- i
ing."
The semi-invalid, clad in a becoming j
negligee, descended the stairs slowly 1
and greeted her caller languidly. She
was making the most of her temporary |
invalidism.
"Are you feeling better?" Arthur i
inquired.
"I am far from well," she replied,
"but it makes no difference."
"It makes a great deal of difference, j
Mildred," he assured her; "to me —at.
least."
She raised her eyebrows skeptically. I
"You have not shown that it did Ar
thur. Indeed you have been so much
absorbed in your own troubles that you ;
have forgotten me entirely."
"I could not come to you to-day. my ;
dear." he reminded her. "My mother,
needed me, and there were many things i
to be attended to. But I hoped the vlo- 1
lets would say to you that which I !
could not say in person."
"The violets!"
"Yes. Didn't they come? T ordered i
them this morning when I learned that
you were not well."
"Who told you?"
"Honora. I telephoned to ask her what i
time I should send the coach to take I
you girls to the —services— and she said
you were not well enough to go. So I h
sent you the flowers—just as a message
from mc."
"X. wish you had not sent them!"
Mildred exclaimed. Mortification and
disappointment made her impatient.
Then Tom had not remembered her! "I
did not know they were from you. I
wish they had not been 1"
Arthur Bruce's face hardened, "Mil
dred, this kind of thing cannot go on.
We are nt odds all the time. What is
the matter?"
"The matter!" springing to her feet.
"Everything is the matter! You scold
me, you neglect me, you act as if 1
■were a small item in your life. I'm
tired of it!"
"Of it—our engagement—or of me?"
the man asked sternly. "1 have a good
deal about which to ask an explanation
of you." He had risen and stood fac
ing her.
"1 am tired of you!" the girl declared
passionately. "I wish you would go
away ! I never want to see you again !"
She began to sob violently, but Arthur
Bruce did not stop to soothe her. In
stead he went from the room and the
house, leaving her alone with her tears.

STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause—Take
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead of
taking tonics, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment —clogged
liver and disordered bowels.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets arouse
the liver in a soothing, healing way.
When the liver and bowels are per
forming their natural functions, away
goes indigestion and stomach troubles.
It you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't-care feeling, no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods,
you should take Olive Tablets, the
substitute for calomel.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color. They do the work without
griping, cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for quick
relief, so you can eat what you like.
