I said dis gurstedly to Phoebe. "First he gets you fathoms deep into his debt. Then he asks you to marry him and makes ugly insinuations about what people will say of your owing him money if you don't. That's absurd, so don't let it worry you. And when lie goes drag \ irginia in, I think he's a regular black mailer.". . . "Then y<su don't think he could make me out a dreadful sort of girl that every one would turn away from?" cried Phoebe. Her tension relaxed, and I could see the beginnings of relief coming to her terrified young face. "Of course not, child," I replied in a matter-of-fact tone. "I think you ought to be spanked for gam bling and stood in the corner for ever thinking Dick West was to be trusted. But you've been foolish and reckless, not criminal. So now wipe that desperate look from your face while I think our way out." Phoebe smiled wistfully through a tiny veil of tears. I thanked her guardian angel that she was still a child at heart and didn't see the ugly possibilities of her story. If Dick West wanted to force her to marrv in order to avoid gossip, he would still have the whip-hand when she had paid ofT her debt. Paying the debt wouldn't change the fact that she'd once owed him monev. If he were cad enough to talk, he'd still have the story of her gambling and borrowing to tell, even when the money was paid. It had to be paid—and at once. Still I didn't see how that would get her out. of his power. I could feel Phoebe's eyes fixed trustingly and hopefully on mine, as I rat reviewing the whole sorry bus iness.

Drink it dear," I said in a tone that didn't admit of defeat. "Then we'll go to the writing room and I'll fill the blank check I carry and you can turn it right over to your Shy lock. We'll pay half our debt and then attend to raising the rest. We're partners now, and we'll see this through to victory. Now drltjk your lemonade. It's really refresh ing." Phoebe raised her glass obediently to her lips, drank a dutiful swallow or two and put the glass down de spairingly. "I can't, Anne. Don't make me. It's what Neal and I always ordered. I never touch it any more," she stammered shyly. "And once you thought you could marry Dick West.," I ventured. Phoebe's face crimsoned. "Do you think —do you think N He would ever forgive me for—for the way I treated him that time he came back, and for this terrible scrape I've got into?" she asked breathlessly. "Bless you heart, dear! You just say you're sorry, and he'll forget everything," I declared happily fore seeing the good that might come out of all this evil. "Now it's all settled. You give Mr. West my check and tell him very frankly that you can't possibly marry him because you don't love him and wouldn't do him the injustice of marrying him without love. I'll go to Jim to-night with the whole story, and he'll get us the rest of our money " "Oh, no—not Jim!" Phoebe cried. "T couldn't bear to have my own brother know!" "Jim, of course," I replied smiling away her objections. "He won't misjudge his baby sister, and he'll positively be grateful to find out what sort of man he's in partner ship with.

"Oh, Anne, you make me believe I'm going to be happy again and not frightened and miserable all the time," murmured Phoebe, giving a little skip as she rose to leave the dining room. He's coming to-night —Dick West is, and I'll do just what you've said." "You might try to stay friendly with him. No use having enemies," 1 warned, praying that even a scoun drel like Dick West would let Phoebe oft without opening her eyes. Then I went to the writing room, gave Phoebe the check that wiped out my bank account and hurried home. I longed to go to Jim with the whole story, and to enlist his help. I must confess I had a mo ment of selfish joy in planning how close Jim and 1 would come through his little sister's trouble. I felt a great longing to find Jim again, and it seemed that Phoebe was showing us the way. This very even ing Jim and I would work out her salvation together, and our perhaps, too. I said a little prayer to myself as I rode up in the elevator a prayer for Phoebe and for me. When I got to the door of my apartment there stood Evvy Mason, her finger pressed to the pearl disk of the electric bell. "I've just been calling on your charming neighbor, Mrs. Cosby," she explained. "And I'm running in to invite you and Jim to join us at a little party I'm giving at our country place this week-end. I want to have the Cosbys meet some of our neighbors. Jim will like that, won't he?" # "We can't come. Not possibly," I declared as I led Ewy into the liv ing room. My one objection was to have her visit conclude before Jim came home. I didn't want Ewy intrud ing on our meeting. But I soon per ceived that Evvy's object was to re main until Jim came. She insisted on being shown over the apartment and lingered with no seeming thought of time until Jim marched in on us. "Is it dreadfully late?" she cried in seeming confusion. "Oh, Jimmie, dear —what a lovely nest you've built for Anne! It makes me want —a little place of my own." "Nice child!" replied Jim expand ing under her gaze of wide-eyed ad miration. "You stay here and share the nest now. We'll have a cozy little dinner and then call in Shelly or Tom for a game of bridge." "How adorable. But I wouldn't think of intruding on you and Anne," returned Ewy putting it up to me, and leaving me helpless to rescue the evening I had wanted for Phoebe—and me. "Of course you must stay," I said. "I haven't a nest like this," said Evvy huskily, looking up at Jim. "But I've the old homestead. You won't refuse to come out for the week-end, will you, Jimmie? Anne thought you had made other ar rangements." "I'd come—for you even if T had to cancel a dozen bookings," replied Jim gallantly. "Anne's mistaken, though, we've nothing else on." "We'll be a nice party," said Ewy complacently. "Everyone and her best beau. But I really must run along now. I'll have a bit of ar ranging to do, and I'll leave the two love-birds alone in tne nest. Not a word, you nice, cordial people." As he closed the door after Evvy Jim turned to me with the almost habitual scowl between his brows. And in a sudden panic I sensed that Evvy and her party bode no good for Phoebe—or for me. (To Be Continued.) Calls Extra Session of N. Y. Legislature to Act on Suffrage By Associated Press.

Use Cocoanut Oil For Washing Hair If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified | cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure ] and entirely greaseless) is much bet- I ter than anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possi- I bly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abun | dance of rich, creamy lather, and [ cleanses the hair and scalp thor oughly. The lather rinses out eas- I ily, and removes every particle of | dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive I oil. The hair dries quickly and ; evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, ' bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil | shampoo at most any drug store. It 'is very cheap, and a few ounces is j enough, to'. last everyone in the fam-i ily for months. . . j BLAJSJRISBTTRG TELEGRAPH PROPOSES PUBLIC OWN RAILROADS Resolution Is Presented Be fore American Federa tion of Labor . Atlantic City, N. J—A proposal that organized labor insist upon public ownership of the railroads of the \ country is before delegates attend ing the reconstruction convention of ; the American Federation of Labor by Glenn E. Plumb, counsel for the rail-i 1 road brotherhoods. The speaker's statement that the I ownership of the systems shuld be | acquired immediately was greeted I with prolonged applause. The cheer-| ing was renewed when Mr. Plumb said that with the government substi-' tuting government bonds for out-1 standing securities, the railroads would be "removed from the dictator ship of Wall street." Government ownership of the rail transportation systems, said the speaker, would mean an annual sav ing in interest costs of from four to six hundred million dollars and prob ; ably would permit a reduction of 10 i Per cent, in current transportation I rates. The plan as detailed by Mr. ] Plumb, proposes the operation of the (roads by a single corporation regulat led by and accountable to the govern- I ment for all its acts and expendi tures. "Such a corporation," said the spokesman for the brotherhoods, "would require no capital. "It would be authorized to take and hold and operate these properties un der the full regulatory power of the Government. The stock of this cor poration should be held in trust for the benefit of the employes. The earnings should constitute a trust fund to be declared as a dividend up on the amounts paid to the labor which it employs, every employe, re ceiving that proportion of this trust fund which his annual wage bore to the total annual compensation of all employes." The so-called Plumb plan already has been presented to the Executive Council of the Federation. The Coun cil, in its report now before the con ference, recommends that the conven tion endorse Government ownership of the railroads.

A girl of siteen, unless she shows most unusual talent for the stage, had better keep on with her lessons and the stage fever will wear off as other interests come into her life.

So-called stomach troubles. suchj as indigestion, gas, sourness, stom-< uch-ache and inability to retain food are in probably nine cases out or ten,, simply evidence that excessive se-; cretion of acid is taking place lnj the stomach causing tormation of! gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and) causes that lull, oppressive, burning teeling sometimes known as heart burn, while the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the excess development or eecre-- tion of acid. To stop or prevent this souring oi, the food contents of the stomach, and to neutralize the acid, and make, it bland and harmless, a teaspoon ful of bisurated magnesia, a good und elfective corrector of acid stom ach should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas. sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutralizes the acidity in a few moments and Is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to use. An antiacid. such as bisurated. magnesia which can be obtained from any druggist in either powder or tablet form enables the stomach to do its work properly without the aid of artiticial digestents. Mag nesia comes in several forms, so ba certain to ask for and take only Bis urated Magnesia, which is especial ly prepared for the above purpose,., Geo. A. Gorgas.
