" When a Girl Marries" Ily AW LISLE A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing Problem of a Girl Wife CHAPTER CCLXX (Copyright. 1919, King Features Syndicate, Inc.) It was Carl Booth, who had taken me to the recruiting meeting where, | a year ago, I first saw my Jim. | And now, just in time to save mc \ from actually hurting him, 1 rcc- I ognized the man who had been my : one pal in the city during all tno ] lonely years before 1 found Jim. ; 1 leaped to my feet and held out j both hands in greeting. "Carl Booth!" 1 repeated. "Good , old Carl. This is jolly. And for a whole minute I didn't know you. A year has brought a mustache and j has taken about twenty pounds," I , explained. Carl blushed with joy—l suppose! Nt having my hesitancy cleared up and at the recognition that some of | his too, too solid llesh had melted. ; His clear, boyish skin went a shade pinker and his twinkling hazel eyes crinkled at the corners. "As if you'd forget a pal—or cut ; him," he said almost as if he were defending me to some one. When I presented hint to Vir ginia she astonished me by being i very gracious. With the sweetness ; and instinctive courtesy that aio just as sure to do the correct thing, as the culture and good manners , of the new world into which I have \ gone since leaving the old one I where I knew him, Carl now turned ! to Virginia: "May we have our coffee with ' you, Mrs. Dalton? It's a treat to; me to see Barbara Anne again- -1 and the girl who's with me will love the chance to visit with her. It's Daisy Condon. Anne. Remem ber her from Haldane's?" "Bring her right over," said Vir ginia graciously—and then spoiled it by adding, "I've just time to add another of my sister's old friends to my list and then 1 must leave you to your reminiscences pud run along to keep an engagement. "That's the man who took me to the recruiting meeting where 1 first saw Jim. He's on the advertising staff of Haldane's," I said when Carl went to get his companion. And 1 hated myself for feeling forced to explain to Virginia. "And one of the stenographers, i I dare say." she replied carelessly, | ignoring Jim's part in my narra- | tive. Then Carl returned with a slim, ; colorless brunette, whom 1 remem- j bered vaguely as a younger sister 1 of good old Kate's. Kate was the | splendid friend whom I had liked- - j and forgotten. Now, in a rush of i remorse for the way I had neglected ; her when my new world swept me j from old moorings, 1 was partiou- I larly cordial to the nlmost drab lie- I tie grain of dust because she was j Kate's sister. In the moment before she left ' us, Virginia was very gracious—too I gracious. I wondered if my new- j old friends knew that she was con- j descending. 1 fancied they both ' drew sighs of relief when she do- I parted. "And where's Kate?" I said cor- j dially to clear the air. Daisy Condon leaned forward, her I eyes brimming and some inner spirit lighting her former dullness as she I spoke in a sweet, grave voice: I "Kate's gone, Mrs. Harrison. | Months ago. The 'flu.' She asked : for you, and I tried to find you, but j Mr. Haldane was out of town and no one knew where to look for you j since you weren't in the telephone book." "Dear old Kate," 1 murmured sadly. "How we do lose track here in the big city! 1 called her once or twice, but I never reached her.

"Kate was a wonder. Bet she's a useful citizen in the beyond," I broke in Carl Booth with the warn., I kindly heartiness that 1 remem bered so well now that it had swept \ across my path again. "She'd be j glad to have lier little sister know I you." | "If you have time," said Daisy i Condon shyly. | Carl's suggestion and the girl's I self-effacing modesty made me more i ; than ever ashamed of the careles: - | nets, the selfishness even, that had J made me permit my new world to j I absorb me so completely. And I i j determined then and there that if ! j 1 could make it up to Kate's little ! I sister, neither the Harrison pride , nor the Harrison world should pro- I vent. Impulsively 1 acted on that I i idea. "This is a jolly reunion with old ! i pals." I said, including Daisy and i | noticing how the least attention i j made her drabness brighten to pink ; and flash to bronze. "But 1 BUp ! pose it must be short, since the . workers of the world haven't much ; j daytime to spare for us drones. ! I But why can't you two come up to ■ dinner to-night?" "Oh!" gasped Daisy, leaning foi - : i ward eagerly and looking at Cati, j I not at me, as she replied, "I'd love I I it—if we only could?" "You can—you must—vott shall'.' | I insisted, smiling at the girl with j ; the beginnings of real liking. She • i seemed like a starved kitten placed i j within pink-tongued distance of a j I saucer of cream, and purring a! polite "Meow —may 1?" beforej touching it. Carl's brown eyes wrestled with ' the problem for a minute, and his | honest color heightened. "Are you sure Mr. Harrison wouh' ' j care to have us?" he asked bluntly. > 1 read into his question a recog- ! ] liition of the caste system, of the ' I social weight of the name Harrison, j I and a little fear lest Jim be as po- ! litely superior as his sister had been, j But loyalty, a homesickness for the I j world-that-onee-had-been, and ! groat regret at the way 1 had nog- j lected Kate swept mo on. "My husband will be as happy to | j meet my old friends as I've always I been to meet his," I declared rash- I ly, smiling reminiscently as I real | ized how "liappy" I had been to ] meet some of Jim's friends. | "All right, we'll be with you," j replied Carl —answering, as I real ized at once—for both. Then to tl.e | waiter: "Check, please." i "Madame paid it on the way out," j replied the waiter, a trifle insolently. That humiliated my old friend, as j I could very well see. I promised j J myself uneasily that running acroa.-, i jme again should mean nothing j worse than this momentary annoy ance to good old Carl. But that ! very vow acknowledged my doubts.

This heel belonged to a megather ium which once, evidently dwelt in the neighborhood of what is now New York City. Dr. Dedoux stepped upon it. in the sands, while bathing at Pong Branch. Its day was the day of the glaciers, say one, or two, or three hundred thousand years ago, or perhaps some geologists would make it a million years. The gla ' tiers were not always present; they j came and went. There were inter- I glacial periods, spread through the glacial age, when the sunshine par-n tially restored the former genial con ditions. and when animals and plants found for some thousands of years on end, comfortable living conditions in this part of the world. Then the wonderful Winter would shut down ; again upon the planet, and the ice would begin once more to grind the 1 rocky heads of the hills and to scoop j out the bottoms of the valleys. In one of the relatively sunny periods, and perhaps recurrently in ! more than one, the megatheriums came, creations of one of nature's ; nightmares, sloths in form— at least > they have been called "ground sloths" i —but elephantine in magnitude and •' more than elephantine in weight and solidity. Stupendous moving masses of llesh and bone, "with thigh bones two or three times as thick as those ; of the elephant," and having "front feet about a yard long."

Their huge bodies were as ! much as 18 feet in length.

I to-day, except that man was entirely | | absent, lie came on at a later stage I of the glacial age, when perhaps tile j | megatheriums had entirely vanish,ed. I I although the giant mammoths and ' mastodons remained. It is a curious fact that just at' or before the time when man was about to be brought forth, nature j experimented in the production of; mammals of the most prodigious I j size, and then turned them all down I and began to develop a relatively j tiny, active creature that could live in treetops, but not tear them down, ! into the prince of the animal king-) ilom. Why did she not expand the j brain of a megatherium, or one of I its brother giants, into an organ of mind, huge in proportion to the ani mal magnitude of its bearer% One might suspect that she was tempted to venture in that direction from the well-known cunning, and the some times almost human intelligence, of the elephant, which, with thej possible exception of the dog and I I the monkey, has, according to Ro manes, "its higher mental faculties j more advanced in their development I than any other animal." But, apparently, the necessary reaction between brain cells and body cells could not be brought about in so unwieldy an animal, and nature, if she ever did have other intentions, Hnally perceived that a lithe, elastic body, which could be trained to walk erect, and two of whose limbes could he released from duty as mere locomotive apparatus, and turned into arms furnished with hands and fingers cf almost infinite capacity for development, was the best suited for the kind of evolution which she, as the agent of infinite power, was under obligation to bring about. It is very impressive while look ing at that old heel bone, to reflect j that it was moving about with the! foot of its gigantic owner in the j Jersey sunshine at a time when man's i first morning about to dawn upon I the earth, was faintly streaking the Eastern sky of time. Curiously enough Dr. Dedoux's , | bare foot stumbled upon two other hard substances projecting from the Dong Branch sands at the same time when he found the heel bone of the megatherium. One was a fragment of a mastodon's bone and the other the skull of a walrus. German Food Riots Is Fatal to Sixty Clieumitz, Saxony, Aug. 11.

Here Is One Thing That Is Absolutely Impossible ' Rheumatism Has Never Been j Cured By Liniments or Lo tions, and Never Will Be. You never knew -f Rheumatism —that most painful source of suf fering—being cured by liniments, I lotions or other external applica tions. And you will never see any thing but temporary relief afforded by such makeshifts. But why be satisfied with tem porary relief from the pangs of pain which are sure to return with increased severity, when there is per manent relief within your reach? Science has proven that Rheumatism is a disordered condition of the blood. How, then, can satisfactory results be expected from any treat ment that does not reach the blood.
