So you waited up for your wand ering boy, Nice person!" cried Jim approvingly when he came back from seeing Phoebe home that evening he'd served his partnership with Dick West. "And I made you some sandwiches and hot chocolate." I appended. "Come to the party. It's all ready in the dining-room." "Nicer —nicest person," said Jim, flinging his arm across my shoulders and drawing me to him. "I couldn't eat dinner —with West opposite me at table, and I'll bet you guessed it," he added. I nestled close, giving myself over to the joy of Jim's need of me. For a second we stood in silence, his hand on my hair. I forced myself to be practical: "Come on, laddie, you know now you hate chocolate when the milk curd comes on top." Jim gulped down two cups of scalding chocolate before he spoke again, and then he burst out with what had been milling around back of his tense eyes. "Does Phoebe really look so— deli cate"? "Not a bit, Jim. She's been wor ried. but you banished her fears to-night, didn't you?" I asked sooth ingly. "Yes. But it didn't make her happy. .1 knew that in spite of all she said, tweet, grateful baby that she is. My mother went—of pernicious anaemia. And to-night I noticed what a little ghost Phoebe is. Her lips haven't a bit of color any more." "They never did," I broke in bit terly, "not till Evvy taught her to use a lip-stick. They were great friends —while Evvy was educating Phoebe in the things she wanted the child to know." Jim studied me for a moment. "See much of- your brother these days?" he demanded suddenly, giv ing all his attention to the selection of a sandwich. "He's coming to dinner Saturday night, with Evvy," I answered. "Oh, that reminds me she tele phoned and I was to call her. May be they aren't coming. I'll ring her up first thing in the morning."

We really ought to be seen about with then! more." "The Harrison social sense," I thought to myself Impatiently. But 1 didn't say it. Certainly 1 wasn't going to set up my Judgment against Jim's again in a hurry. To-night I saw how promptly and directly he can act. And I observed how his actions met with the approval and respect of Lane Cosby. That taught me something 1 need to know. But the thing that sounds the key note to Jim's nature is his rejection of Lane Cosby's help. Jim likes to do things on his own. So a wife who has his love and longs as 1 do to keep it mustn't trample down his "No Trespassing" signs. This flashed through my mind, and so I didn't question Jim's desire to make sure of Evvy and Neal for Sat urday evening, but promised to call Evvy right after breakfast next morning. Which 1 did only to dis cover that Evvy had merely tele phoned to ask me to meet her at her dressmaker's to see the model and the satin she had selected for me to wear at her engagement tea. "It's the most luscious thing orange and silver," she gushed. "But Evvy, I like to get my things at Wickham's, and truly I can't wear orange," I protested. "It makes my skin yellow and takes all the life out of my hair." "My dear," purred Evvy in her sweetest and most pleading tone, "don't you realize that I want my reception to be a success? So nat urally I'm going to have my assis tants look charming. They'll give you particularly good prices, at my place. And this color is wonderful. I can't let Mrs. Cosby wear it—she'd look like an oriental princess. So I'm putting her in flesh color to tone her down. I'll call for you at twelve." There was nothing for me to do but to acquiesce and bid Evvy an amicable au revoir. I was ready to be led like the lamb to the slaughter. Of course it was fairly evident that Evvy in the blue that would bring out her eyes and the orchids that would mask the hollows of her slightly scrawny figure was going to look her best. Val in flesh pink would be absurd and in orange I would be at my worst. The reception meant so little to me that 1 wouldn't quarrel about clothes. And I guessed that the social recognition of pouring at Miss Mason's bridal tea meant so much to Val that she'd go on any terms. I shrugged it all away, 'phoned Phoebe, got Virginia and the mes sage that Phoebe was in bed with a sick headache, and then, arrang ing to meet Virginia for lunch at her favorite restaurant. I made ready for my appointment with Evvy. She came at twelve, kissed me. purred over me and clawed me all in a breath, and then hurried me down to a waiting taxi and whirled me to her dressmaker. "Now, Madame, show Mrs. Harri son the wonderful model I've selected for her," ordered Evvy when the Bringing Up Father - t '- Copyright, 1918, International News Service By McManus oh: LET'S I TOR I V/lt>H TOO CANT APPRECIATE. i CO HOME- I 'bA.KE - <JP " I WOZ.

"It will suit you—parfaitment." gushed Madame, shrugging her shoulders and spreading her hands in a gesture of enthusiasm which evoked a patronizing smile from Evvy. Of course the color and the model were all wrong for me. But Evvy cajoled and Madame insisted, and since my heart wasn't in the busi ness anyway I ordered an outrage ously expensive dress which I didn't want. "And now," purred Evvy with husky sweetness, "be a dear and run get the little silver gray I've chosen for Miss Harrison." Madame trotted off obediently, and 1' turned to Evvy, repeating stupidly: "Miss Harrison? Who is that?" "Who is that?" mimicked Evvy with her blue eyes wide as a kitten's turned toward a saucer of cream. "Phoebe, of course. We were always great friends.

HJLRKESBURG TELEGRXFfi THE LOVE GAMBLER By Virginia Terhune Van de Water CHAPTER XXV. Desiree Leighton was very honest with herself, so honest that she would not have disputed her maid's comment on the state of her temper could she have overheard it. For she was in a bad temper. She knew that. And she was at a loss to account for it. She almost wished that his new chauffeur had never come into her father's em ploy. His aura and hers must be entirely different, she reflected, if an ordinary chauffeur had any aura! At all events, he was affect ing Norah in an unfortunate way. And Norah's mistress was in no mood to stand that kind of thing. She had informed her father last night that he must talk to Smith about his rude behavior, and the parent had done this. But he had evidently not remonstrated to any effect. Otherwise Smith would not have come into the house and re mained chatting with Norah. All these thoughts rushed through Desiree's mind as she went slowly down her front steps and crossed the sidewalk to where David stood, holding open the door of the run about. She nodded as he touched his cap; then she glanced critically at the automobile. "1 am sorry you had to bring this car for me," she commented. "I dislike it." He made no reply. When he had seen her seated he went around to the other side, took his seat beside her and closed the door. Then he started his engine and waited, his hands on the steering-wheel, for her orders. Absentmlnded "I am ready," she said absent mindedly. "Drive on." "Yes, miss," doubtfully. "But where?" She flushed, "I thought I had told you," she said. "Drive out to Fifth avenue, then down as far as Forty eighth street. I had a call to make there." But when she reached the ave nue, she changed her mind. "Go down to Hilton's —the florists's," she said. "I want to take some flowers to the sick friend." He did not reply, only bowed mutely. „ . "Did you hear me. Smith? she asked tartly. "'I beg your pardon!" he ex claimed. "Yes. miss, I heard you." "Then you should have answered me," she reproved. ••I—i—was not aware that I did not," he apologized. "I meant to. I must have been thinking" She interrupted htm. "Thinking seems to be one of your failings just now, Smith. At least thinking of other things besides your duties. You told me over the phone this morning that you 'thinking' when you ran into a cab." "Pardon me," he corrected, "when the cab ran into me." "That makes no difference," she said "Had your mind been on your work you would have been on the lookout for the mistakes of other drivers." He did not repb-. His silence ir ritated fcer. "Is that not so, Smith?" she de manded. "Perhaps so, miss," he admitted. "I regret that my carelessness caused the accident." Then, with a sudden rising of the spirit that was his by birth—"l will pay the penalty I mean I shall not have the item of repairs put on Mr. Leighton's bill." A Real Rebuke The girl's face flushed crimson. "Smith!" she exclaimed. "1 am sur prised at you! You are very im pertinent! First, you have an ac cident, and then when I ware sug gest that it was your fault, you so far forget yourself as to speak in an unwarranted manner." There was a long silence before Smith said in a low, tense voice. "If I have been guilty of dis courtesy, Miss Leighton, I apolo gize. For the moment I forgot my place." "I accept your apology," she said stiffly. "Yes, you did forget your place. I believe that Mr. Leighton has spoken to you also about the way in which you forgot last even ing." "Yes, miss." "I fancy," in a voice she tried to make generous, but which was so patronizing that her companion writhed inwardly, "that we all have times when our minds are so full of other matters that the details of our work seem of small im portance. "I do not mean to be severe, Smith, but I have been disappointed in you for the past day or two. Mr. Leighton and I like you, and want to keep you in our employ. That is why we take the pains to teach you and to tell you of your mistakes. And we are sure you want to learn our ways. Have you ever had a position like this before?" "No, miss," he replied, his voice somewhat strained, "never just like this before." "But you were a chauffeur, of course?" "Yes, miss—l was a chauffeur. But not"—with a slight twitching of the corners of his lipe—"of. a lady's car." "Oh. you drove only for men?"

But even that would not account for your wandering thoughts. You have something on your mind that absorbs you, per haps. I would suggest that you do not let yourself think of it during working-hours." Again he was silent. But this time she did not reprove him. Something in his face embar rassed her.

Old Free Trade Talk Not Heard in Washington Washington, July 3.—Conspicuous by its absence in these days is the talk in Washington in favor of the doctrine of tree trade. One might almost ask, in the lan guage of that well-known Hoosier poet, "who remembers the old-time politician who used to orate on the merits of free trade?" % Even the President in his message recognized the idea that competi tion with the foreign producer was a thing to be considered. The hearings before the House ways and means committee on pro tection for the dye industry are bringing out some interesting things. For instance, one of the witnesses was Grinnell Jones, chemical expert of the tariff commission.

It has never been charged that the tariff commission was a high tariff body. How Many Women Do You Know Who say there are perfectly well? "I am tired all the time," "I am so nervous it seeins as though I should fly," "I can hardly drag around to day," and all such expressions art characteristic of women who have overtaxed their strength until head aches, backache, nervousness, drag ging-down pains, irregularities and the blues, symptoms of a female weakness, have developed. Women who are in this condition may rely upon Lydia K, Pinkham's Vege table Compound to restore them to health and strength.
