For a minute Virginia remained
perfectly silent. It seemed to me
that I could hear my own words
echoing on the air:
••Seal's in a sort of a partnersh p
with Pat Dalton and Carlotta
Sturges."
Believing as I did that Vlrtf nla
still loved Pat. my heart ached with
the recoil of the blow I had dealt
acr. This alliance of my brother
with Virginia's husband must as
suredly embitter her —but not a
tenth as much as would Pat s asso
ciation with Carlotta Sturges. But
whatever the struggle that went
on she gave me no trace of it when
she turned her pale face and im
penetrable eyes to me and said in a
flat, colorless voice: ,
"My dear Anna, your brothers
arrangements are nothing
vn me. I promise you I shall not
stay away from his reception on
that account —and subject you or
Jim to surmise and gossip. At a
great crush like that will be it s
very easy to avoid people one
doesn't want to see."
In my heart I knew that Virginia
wouldn't spare herself. It was use
less to ask her to spare Phoebe,
but I couldn't resist one last effort:
"With all our —family complica
tions don't you think phoebe might
refuse?"
"Please. Anne," interrupted Vir
ginia in a tone of finality, "leave
this to me. I want Phoebe to meet
the Mason set It was our set when
Jim and I were young. If Jim's
success continues it ought to be
yours soon."
There was nothing more to be
said.
The rest of our time together was
given to surface discussions that
elaborately skirted everything real.
After luncheon we went our sep
arate ways with a return of the old
feeling of estrangement. Later,
when I went to keep my appoint
ment with Phoebe, Amanda, the
maid, told me Miss Phoebe had been
compelled to go out on a most (im
portant matter. I wondered what
it could be. It wasn't so very long
ago that she had bemoaned her
lock of friends. I went away feel
ing snubbed and had to call my
sense of humor to aid me. It
looked as if I couldn't contrive to
be on good terms with Jim and his
sisters at the same time.
For the next few days Phoebe
seemed bent on avoiding me. And
as Jim changed the subject when
ever I mentioned his sisters I con
quered my longing to manage and
help and forced myself to wait. So

MONDAY EVENING,
we came to Saturday night and our
dinner to Kvvy and Nea.l.
The rain fell in a drenching
downpour that looked like shining
gray sheets. Out of this darkness
Kvvy blew in like a tlame. She
wore a cape of rose velvet mantling
a clinging dress of metal cloth in
turiiuoise blue and gold. Drops of
rain misted her yellow hair and
dabbled her gold slippers.
"Oh, Kvvy, those clothes—in this
rain!" burst from me after we had
exchanged greetings.
"Don't preach like little old man
Neal," Kvvy protested, opening her
blue eyes very wide. "We had a
taxi, and a drop of rain doesn't hurt
me. As for these clothes—they're
old things from last winter. They
might as well give a little more
service. They don't belong in a
trousseau."
"Won't you let me give you dry
slippers to wear while we're at din
ner?" I asked. "Bertha can dry
yours a bit, and I'll give you some
rubbers when we start."
"Threes?" purred Evvy, looking
down at my feet mockingly as she
seated herself with a tiny plump
foot thrust challengingly out at me.
My five A's seemed enormous. The
satin dinner dress and dark slippers
I had worn appeared cautious and
middle-aged. Jim saved me from
the confusion Evvy was making me
feel:
"Those little feet always carried
you into plenty of mischief, Evvy,"
he bantered.
Evvy flung back her head and
looked at him steadily with wide,
quizzical eyes.
"You ought to know," she said.
"I do," returned Jim, stooping
over her with a return of his old
flirtatious manner.
He straightened back abruptly,
but even before he did that, I con
quered the old surge of jealousy
that threatened to sweep over me.
For days I have been given every
proof of Jim's love and devotion.
He has my heart and I do not pur
pose to make that a worthless gift
because my faith and trust don't go
with it.
Dinner went off without a hitch.
Jim was as charming to Neal as
to Evvy. Evvy clawed at me less
than was her won't,, and even when
she scratched I managed to smile
it away. But when I looked at
Neal —thin, pale and rather grave,
I couldn't smile at all.
The new play was very clever, so
even if I didn't enjoy it, I suppose
the party was a success. However,
when Jim produced tickets for the
newest Dance Club and escorted.us
there after the theater. I was al
most as pleased as Evvy was—but
for very different reasons. Ewy

gurgled that Jim was a perfect host
and the new club was the smartest
place in town and a fox-trot with
her Neal and a waltz with Jimmie
would make her evening perfect!
Neal doesn't waltz, but I didn't be
grudge Evvy the waltz with Jim
that gave me p. chance to talk to
my brother.
"Happy, lad?" I asked, eager to
surprise the truth from 'Neal.
"It's been a wonderful evening,"
he countered.
"Oh, Neal —tell Babbsie," I per
sisted. "I want to help you. I know
you're not % happy and I want to help

Neal turned to me with young
dignity that was amazing. I knew
that he was going to bar me out
from his heart, perhaps even to re
proach me for trying to force my
way where I had never before been
refused admittance. But on the
verge of speech, he controlled him
self and leaped to his feet.
At that moment, I felt a plump,
cushiony hand slide down my arm
to take my hand and I looked up to
| see a little pouter-pigeon of a wo
; man hung in jewels. Mechanically
1 I smiled and spoke a word of greet-
I ing trying vainly to place my
visitor.
"Why Mrs. Harrison," she ex
claimed. "Don't you know me?"

HARWHBURG QESgNgy. TELEGRAPH
BOLSHEVIKS WORK
IN AFGHANISTAN
British Officials Believe Them
Responsible For Up
rising There
London, July 7. British govern
ment officials are convinced that the
uprising In Afghanistan, is being
forstered by the Russian Bolsheviki.
It is stated that the government has
positive information that the Amir is
in close touch with the Bolsheviki in
Turkestan and Moscow and that Rus
sian emissaries have been sent to
Afghanistan.
It is believed here that the Amir is
delaying answering armistice terms
which he requested until he can fur
ther concentrate his forces, stir up
I more trouble among frontier tribes
and get assistance either in the form
of propaganda or money from Rus
sia.
Recent successes of the Bolsheviki
in Trans-Caucasia are regarded with
apprehension and as likely to impress
the Afghans.
The Bolshevik aspirations un
doubtedly are two-fold. Official
opinion here is that they hope through
this method to spread their doctrine
among the people of the near East
thereby widening their influence and
embarrassing the United Kingdom.
Awarded the Cross
of St George Medal
New York, July 7.—Ralph Albert
son, of New York for many months
a Y. M. C. A. worker In the Archangel
area of northwestern European Rus
sia, has been awarded the Cross of
St. George medal by the command
: ant of the Russian forces there upon
recommendation of the British mili
tary staff, for remaining behind to
aid hospital patients when the allied
forces evacuated Shenkursk and the
Bolsheviks captured the town. He is
fifty-three years of age.
At the time Shenkursk was evac
uated, Albertson aided doctors and
others In getting ninety-six wounded
men to places of safety even prepar
ing a meal for them during the hur
ried exodus necessitated by the
bombardment of the Bolsheviks.
The wounded in Shenkursk had
given up al! hope of being taken out
of the attacked city alive, and ac
cording to report, regarded Albertson
as organizer of the party which saved
their lives.

Make Your Own
Coffee at the Table
You Need Not Bother With a
Coffee Pot
How muoh more convenient It
would be if you could make coffee
right at the table. Think of the
time Rained, the steps saved, the ex
tra bother and fuss eliminated!
All this is possible —• if you use
Hires Instant Soluble Coffee. This
was iirst made for our soldiers in
France, who required good coffee
that could be easily made. And so
thoroughly did Hires Instant Soluble
Coffee meet every requirement, 66 2-3
per cent, of all the coffee contracted
for by the American Army, in the
trenches, was Hires. We could not
supply more because our facilities
would not permit.
Hires Instant Soluble Coffee is the
dried pure juice of carefully selected
coffee beans of Java and Mocha
blend. This clear, aromatic juice is
merely converted into a powdered
soluble form. The minute you add hot
water you have your coffee as origin
ally made, and if you prefer your
coffee iced you can have it, for Hires
Instant Soluble Coffee dissolves in- ,
stantly in ice water.
And Hires Instant Soluble Coffee is
the corfcentrated Juice of the coffee
bean, for by an exclusive process
twice as much juice is taken from
the coffee bean as is secured by the
use of the coffee pot or percolator.
Because Hires Instant Soluble Cof- .
fee is so easy to make you can make
it right at the table, or can have a
clear, fragrant cup any hour of the
day or night.
A small can of Hires Instant
Soluble Coffee is equivalent to a
pound of the best Mocha and Java
coffee. The low price is due to the
fact that with our exclusive pro
cess we extract 100 per cent, more
juice from the bean than you can in
making coffee in the old way. Get
I it at all stores.
