New, Romanuc Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
CHAPTER CCVin.
A beaming Xeal was waiting for
me in the lobby of the Clinsarge.
A Xeal triumphant. His red cur
flung themselves up like a challenge
to the world and his shoulders wen
back so jauntly that the> a mos
kept me from noticing the flicker of
restlessness in his eyes. The ol un
form didn't look shabby now.
"Well, Babbsie. you sure are grand
with that new copper kettle on your
head. That's some swell bonnet,
and if there's a prettier girl in the
room than my sister, I hope they
don't point her out to a fellow with
a weak heart!" he cried all in one
breath.
"Do I look nice, Neal?
I preened under his plance. for
Jim hadn't seemed to see me for so
long that a word of admiration was
"I'll say so!" chortled Xeal. "And
if asked. I'll bet every other moth
ers' son in the place will sa> as
much or more. You sure arc there
with the looks. Babbs. and it only
takes half-way decent clothes to give
you a chance to prove it."
Suddenly the nine hundred and
fifty dollar order for clothes stopped
being a mountain and became a
mere molehill. I squeezed Neal's
hand and skipped along at his side,
crying:
"Well, if I look half as good to
you as you do to me. Xeal darling,
the contentment on our faces must
make folks wonder when we publish
the banns. Xow. lad. where do we
go from here? I'm just aching to
hear all about you."
"We go to a specially selected
table hy the window and to a special
ly prepared lunch at the same."
"Xeal. we're not lunching at the
Clinsarge?"
"And why not. pray? Tisn't this
swell enough for Madame Harrison?
Prefer Carlier's?"
"It isn't that." I began awkward
ly, wondering if my proud young
brother could be persuaded to let
me pay for the lunch.
"I know what it is. Babbs. Well,

Xeal twinkled as he seized my
elbow with a proprietary air. Then
he led me over to a sunny window
giving on the avenue, the window
Pat Dalton always choose. We sat
down facing each other, and some
thing breathless seemed to be hold
ing us apart.
"You look prosperous," said Xeal
at last awkwardly.
"And you look happy, lad. Tell
Babbsie."
"Happy?" Xeal considered the
word judicially for a moment. Then
he dismissed it, and leaning across
the table he said steadily: "1 landed
a job the first of this week. Rather
it landed me. Seventy-five per
and commissions. So why shouldn t
your little old fox Xeal be himself
again ?"
"Oh, laddie! I'm so proud of you.
Only twenty-tliree and doing Father
Andrew proud already," I said, lay
ing my hand over his and then re
moving it hastily to grope for a
handkerchief.
"Dust in my eves," I explained,
with an April smile.
Xeal smiled back.
"Have you missed me, Babbs?
Gosh, there were times I just walk
ed by the Walgrave because you
were there. Did you miss me like
that?"
"Xeal, Xeal—-you know I missed
j-ou. Oh, laddie—so much! Why
wouldn't you see me? Why did you
cut yourself off from me?"
"It might be better not to go into
that, Babbs. I told you once I was
fed up with the Harrisons. There's
such a thing as pride."
"But I'm not a Harrison not
really. I'm your folks, Xeal," I said
tremulously.
"Xot any more." retorted Xeal.
solemnly. "Your husband's people
are your people. It always has to he
like that for a woman. It would
a .V e to he so for my w 'ife."
For your wife?" I cried in terror.
"Calm yourself, Babbs. If ever I
have a wife."
Did you go to the canteen that
night last week?" I asked, suddenly.
"Why did you want me to go.
\ since you weren't there yourself?"
i he asked, searchingly.
"Oh. then you did go!" I cried.
' eager to hear more.
"As far as the door. T asked Car.
lotta Sturges for you and she told
;me Phoebe Harrison was substitut
ing for you. So. remembering a
certain box on the ear. I did a quick
getaway."
Oh. Xeal!" I said, unhappily:
"did Phoebe see you ?"
"Couldn't say." muttered Xeal.
The bitterness in his voice, the
glint in his eyes, made me hunt
hastily for a topic it would be wiser
to discuss.
"T want to know about this won
derful job of yours, Xeal. Tell Babb
sie." I coaxed.
'I got it through you. Remember
the day you set Pat Dalton to wait
ing for me down in the lobby of the
Eversham Building?"
"Tes. Last week. And I've not
had a word from you all this while."
"I couldn't speak to you. I was
down and cut. T.ast stivver gone.
T wouldn't see Evvy till she came
in her little car and took me off to
their country place. I was about

and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,

THE LOVE GAMBLER
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER X. |
James Carey, to whom Samuel
Leighton had written for his new
chauffeur's reference, was wise
enough to make no protest to David
De Laine's scheme.
In his heart he was rather glad
to learn of it. From a distance he
had watched this son of his old
friend—for Carey and David's father
had been boys together.
David's mother had died when lie
was a baby. Her husband had known
how to make money, but he also had
also known how to spend it reckless
ly. At the time of the father's death
the only son was twenty years old.
When the debts were all paid and
the funeral bills settled, very little
remained of what had been a com
fortable fortune.
It was then that Miss Jeanne De
Laine proposed that her nephew
make his home with her.
"I will help you financially, my
dear Davey," she had said.
But David was firm in his deter
mination to stand on his own feet.
He had succeeded in working his
way through college, and had se
cured a decent ,but not very remun
erative position, which he held un
til the outbreak of the war. Then
he enlisted.
All this James Carey knew, for he
had corresponded with David from
time to time. He had gloried in
what he called "the boy's spunk"
in not accepting his aunt's offer to
i support him. Now that David had
written him of the terms of Miss
'De Laine's will, he gloried still more
in the stand taken by his young
friend. Anything that David had
asked of him he was willing to do.
Therefore, if the lad wanted to be
an ordinary chauffeur, Carey would
send his possible employer sucli a
letter as an ordinary chauffeur would
want written to the man for whom
he hoped to work.
A Favorable Report
"I know the young man about
whom you inquire," Mr. Carey wrote
to Mr. Leighton. "I have known him
from his boyhood. He is industrious,
honest, trustworthy, and has no bad
habits. Were I in need of someone
to drive a car. I would not hesitate
to employ David Smith."
A copy of this note was enclosed
in James Carey's letter to David.
"Here is what I am mailing to
your new employer," he wrote. "I
hope it is what you want. I am
proud of you. Indeed, I have always
been proud of you. Y'ou are quite
right to prefer to work under an
assumed surname. Baltimore and
New York are not so far apart after
all. and De Laine is not a common
name. I am never afraid that you
will dishonor it—but just because
you do honor it, you want to avoid
its becoming the subject of curious
comment.
"Write me when you can. and
when you make enough money to
take a trip South make me happy
by coming here.
"I may add that I am glad you
never met the young woman to
whom your poor rich aunt was so
anxious to see you married. I use
the word 'poor' advisedly, for I have
a sincere pity for any one who
thinks that love can be bought. (You
see, I am an old bachelor—a very
old one—so have romantic notions
still).
"I suppose I should pity the girl,
too. Not because she did not suc
ceed in marrying you, but because
she has so little delicacy as to be'
party to a scheme to trap a young,
man. Your aunt had the excuse of
her love for you and her affection
for the girl. The girl herself had
no excuse except a desire to get
married. You are fortunate never
to have met her."
"Ye gods!" David De Laine sprang
to his feet when he read this con
demnation and began to walk up
and down his hall room. "I did not
mean to give the dear old chap the
impression that Aunt Jeanne's pro
tege was aware of my aged rela
tive's plans. I must write him that
the girl may have known nothing
of them. But —I wonder if she did?"
He stopped in his very limited
walk. He had always taken It for
granted that Desfree Leighton had
been innocent of the scheme that
his aunt was intent uppn. Now it
occurred to him that if Miss De
Laine had talked so freely to her
nephew of Desiree she might have
talked as freely to Desiree of Davey.
In that case the girl must have
loathed the thought of him—if she
was a nice girl. And of course she
was!
He teld himself this fiercely. His
employee's daughter's face came be
fore his mental vision. If she was
Desiree Leighton. she was incapa
ble of planning to marry any man.
What Difference Anyway?
Then he brought himself up
sharply. What difference did the
girl's attitude make to him? Never
theless. he decided to write to Mr.
Carey and thank him for his letter
and suggest to him that probably
the girl in question was absolutely
Innocent of the net that had been
spread for her.
If she suspected It, how she must
hate the man who had been "pttked
out" for her!
Th£ thought was not pleasant To
banish it David re-read the copy of
the very satisfactory recommenda
tion that James Carey had sent to
Samuel Leighton.
That same evening Samuel Leigh
ton read this same epistle aloud to
his daughter and sister.
"I am glad." he commented, "that
1 let Smith - order his livery without
waiting for this letter. You see,
it is quite what it should be Carey 1
says he would not hesitate to cm-j
ploy the (ellow himself." :
'•His manner and speech seem
above those of the average chauf
feur," Mrs. Duffield observed.
Her brother smiled. "That is put
ting it conservatively, Sylvia. Some
times Smith puzzles me a bit by his
good Knglish."
"I don't see why," was the com
fortable rejoinder. "You forget,
Samuel, that in these days of free]
schools the poor have wonderful j
opportunities. This young chap very,
likely had sense enough to make
the best of such opportunities offer
ed even the lower classes."
Desiree Leighton said nothing.

For Itching Torture
y
There is one remedy that seldom 1
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with |
zemo, _ which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim
ples, rashes, blackheads in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor i
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching !
usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe, I
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, SI.OO. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

COFFEE
Three soldier a crouched in the front line
trench cold, weary, hungry. Suddenly
they tniffed, smiled and said in unison
"Cafe," from the Poilu; " Caw fee, " from
the Tommy; and from the Yank—"Coffee! "
COFFEE is the fighting man's drink. It
did its bit in the war right manfully. In
the camp, on the march, at the front, in the
hut and hospital, wherever men fought and
bled and suffered and died there was
coffee.
Ever and always the cry was _ coffee ! !
Because it gives cheer and comfort, and
courage. It is soothing, quieting, sustaining. !
The tired man calls for it. Exhausted nature !
asks for it. After the lesson of this war i
who shall say that coffee is not healthful
and needful ?
Be thankful for coffee for the delight of
it, the benefit of it, the real downright good
ness of it. There is nothing in the world you
would miss one-half so much as coffee—if you
were suddenly deprived of it!
Indeed—coffee is one of the truest and " real
est" of friends that Nature has given to men.
Let us rejoice in it, and revel in it. Let us
glory in the charm and flavor and piquancy
of it. Let us toast our friends in it—" Here's
. . 1
to your health and happiness! " >
