Pure Water As a Beverage
This is the season of the year when
•ven the purest water that we are able
to get from spring, lake, well or reser
voir is impure. Melting snow and iee,
spring rains and surface drainage all
do a little toward polluting our drink
ing water.
We know that water never is entirely
pure because it contains magnesia, salt,
lime and other minerals, but these im
purities are healthful. It is the con
tamination of sewage and other vile
things that we fear, and filtering does
not remove or destroy deadly typhus
and other germs. The only safe thing
to do is to boil all drinking water for
a few weeks.
Boiled water is not pleasant to the
taste for the properties that have made
it bright and sparkling are lost in the
process and a flat, unpleasant taste re
Milts. The natural -alt? have been lost
in evaporation. If you will add a very
little salt or a tiny bit of soda to dis
tilled or boiled water you will notice
that it is again pleasant to the sense
of taste and that you can drink the
two quarts of water daily that you need
to keep you well.
If you have a water supply that is
unpleasant, and often water contains
so much sulphur or magnesia that this
is the case, lemon juice added until it
is pleasantly acid will help. If you are

Mallow lounged out, rather pleased
with himself. His greatest pleasure In
life was In malting others uncomfort
able.
The consul general bit the wooden
end of his pen and chewed the splin
ters of cedar. He couldn't deny that
it was like Elsa to pick up some dere
lict for her benefactions. Women had
no business to travel alone. It was all
very well when they toured in parties
of eight or ten; but for a charming
young woman like Elsa, attended by a
spinster companion who doubtless
dared not offer advice, it was decided
ly wrong. And thereupon he deter
mined that her trip to Yokohama
should find her well guarded.
"I beg your pardon," said a pleas
ant voice.
The consul general bad been so
deeply occupied by his worry that he
had not noticed the entrance of the
speaker. He turned impatiently. He
saw a tall blond man, bearded and
tanned, with fine clear blue eyes that
met his with the equanimity of the
I fearless.
CHAPTER XIII.
After Ten Years.
The consul general saw before him
an exquisite, as the ancient phrase
goes, backed by no indifferent breed
!of • manhood. He believed that here
was a brief respite (as between acts)
in which the little hypocrisies could
be laid aside. The pleasant smile on
his high-bred face was all his own.
i "And what may Ido for you. sir?"
II HI
' 1 -i
"I Meant No Harm."
He expected to be presented with let
ters of introduction, and to while away
a half hour in the agreeable discussion
of mutual acquaintance.
"I should like a few minutes' private
talk with you." began the well-dressed
stranger. "May I close the door?" The
consul general, with a sense of disap
pointment, nodded. The blond man
returned and sat down. "I don't know
how to begin, but 1 want you to copy
this cablegram and send it under your
own name. Here it is; read it."
So singular a request filled the con
sul general with astonishment. Rather
mechanically he accepted the slip of
paper, adjusted his glasses, and
read—
The Andes Construction company. New
York: A former employee of yours wishes
to make a restitution of £,.009. with Inter
est to date. He dares not give his name '
to me. but he wishes to Uarn it this be
lated restitution will lift the baji against
bis coming to America and resuming his
citizenship. Reply collect.
"This is an extraordinary request to
make to me, sir."
"Could I possibly offer that to the
cable operator? Without name or ad
dress? No; I could not do It without
being subjected to a thousand ques
tions, none of which I should care to
answer. So I came to you. Passing
through your hands, no one will ques
tion it. Will you do this favor for a
poor unfortunate devil?"
Oddly enough, the other could not
get away from his original impression.
The clothes, the way the man wore
them, the clarity of his eyes, the abun
dant health that was expressed by tl\f
tone of the skin, derided such a pos- 1
sibility as the cablegram made mani
fest.
He forced the smile back to his lips.
"Are you sure you're not hoaxing
me?"
"No. I am the victim of the hoax,"
enigmatically. "If one may call the
quirks of fate by the name of hoax,"
stranger added. "Will you send \
it?"
The years he had spent in the con
sular service had never brought before '
him a situation of this order. He did
not know exactly what to do. He
looked out of the window, into the ho
tel court, at the sky which presently i
would become overcast with the daily j
rain clouds. By and by he remem
bered the man waiting patiently at hie :
elbow.
"What is your name?"
"I'd rather not give that until 1
hear from New York. I am known out
here by the name of Warrington."
Warrington. The puzzlement van
ished from the older man's face, and
his eyes became ajert, renewing from
another angle their investigation of
the stranger. Warrington. So this
was the man? He could understand
now. Who could blame a girl for mak
lng a mistake when he, a seasoned vet
eran. had been beguiled by the out
*vd appearance of the man? Mallow

"I promise to aend this upon one
condition."
"I accept without question," readily
"it U that you must keep away from
eipp. Chetvood, now and hereafter. Yon
made her acquaintance under false
pretenses."
"I deny that. Not under false pre
tenses." How quickly things went
about! "Let me tell you how I met
her."
The consul general listened; he lis
tened with wonder and interest, and
more, with conviction that the young
man had been perfectly honest But
the knowledge only added to his grow
ing alarm. It would not be difficult for
such a man to win the regard of any
young woman.
"And you told her what you had
done?"
"Yes."
"Your first misstep?" touching the
cablegram.
"My first and only misstep. I was a
careless, happy-go-lucky young fool."
The sky outside also had attraction for
Warrington. A thousand times a fool!
"How long ago did this happen?"
"Ten years this coming April."
"And now, after all this time, you
wish to go back?"
"I have wished to go back many
times, but never had money enough.
1 have plenty now. Oh, I made it hon
estly," smiling. "In oil, at Prome.
Here's a cutting from a Rangoon pa
per."
The other read it carefully. It was
romance, romance 6uch as he liked to
read in his books, but which was
mighty bewildering to have at his
elbow in actuality. What a life the
man must have led! And here he
was. with no more evidence of the
conflict than might be discerned in the
manliness of his face and the breadth
and depth of his shoulders. He
dropped the cutting, impatiently.
"Don't you believe it?"
"tfelievo it? Oh, this? Yes," an
swered the consul general. "What I
cannot believe is that I am awake. I
cannot quite make two and two equal
four. I cannot . . . you do
not look like a man who would rob his
employer of eight thousand dollars.
. Parrot & Co. It's odd, but I
recollect that title. You were at
Udaipur during the plague."
Warrington brightened. "So that's
got about? I happened to be there,
working on the prince's railway."
"I will send the cable at once. You
will doubtless h?ar from New York in
the morning. But you must not see
Miss Chetwood again."
"You will let me bid her good-by?
I admire and respect her more than
any other woman. She does not know
it. for as yet her 6oul is asleep; but
she is one of those few women God
put on earth for the courage and com
lort of man. Only to say good-by to
her. Here In this office, if you wish."
"I agree to that."
"Thank you again." Warrington
rose.
"I am genuinely sorry for you. If
they say no, what will you do?"
"Go back just the same. I have an
other debt to cancel.'
"Call in the morning. I'll let you
know what the charges are."
"I forget. Here are twenty pounds.
You can return the balance when I
call. I am very grateful."
"By the way, there ,is a man here
by the name of Mallow," began the
consul general.
"Yes," interrupted Warrington, with
a smile which was grim and cruel. "I
expect to call upon him. He owes me
something like fifty pounds, and I am
going to collect it." Then he went
out.
The consul general dropped Mal
low's perlecto into the wastebasket
and lighted his pipe. Once more he
read the cablegram. The Andes Con
struction company. What a twist,
what an absurd kink in the skein!
Nearly all of Elsa's wealth lay bound
up in this enormous business which
General Chetwood had founded thirty
odd years before. And neither of
them knew!
"I am not a bad man at heart," he
mused, "but I liked the young man'i
expression when I mentioned that
bully Mallow."
He joined his family at five. He
waved aside tea, and called for a
lemon-squash.
"Elsa, I am going to give you a lec
ture."
"Didn't I tell you?" cried Elsa to the
wife. "I felt in my bones that he was
going to say this very thing." She
turned to her old-time friend. "Go
on; lecture me."
"In the first place, you are too kind
hearted."
"That will be news to my friends.
They say I have a heart of ice."
"And what you think Is independ
ence of sprit is sometimes indiscre
tion."
"Oh," said Elsa, becoming serious.
"A man came Into my office today.
He Is a rich copra grower from Pe
nang. He spoke of you. You passed
htm on going out. If I had been twen
ty years younger I'd have punched his
ugly head. His name is Mallow, and
he's not a savory chap."
Elsa's cheeks burned. She never
would forget the look in that man's
eyes. The look might have been In
other men's eyes, but conventionality
had always veiled It; she bad never
seen It before.
"Go on;** but her voice waa un
steady.
"Somewhere along the Irrawaddy
yon made the acquaintance of a young
ifian who calls himself Wan-in eton. fa-
mtfiariy mown M rarroi « uo. ...
b« generous. Not one woman In t
thousand w6uld hare declined to ac
cept the attentloita of such a man. H«
U cultivated, undeniably good look
in*, a strong man, m email/ ana
physically."
Elsa's expression was now enig
matical.
"There's not much veneer to him.
He fooled me unintentionally. He wai
quite evidently born a gentleman, 01 i
race of gentlemen. His ia not an Iso
lated case. One misstep, and the roa<
to the devil."
The consul general's wife sent i
startled glance at Elsa, who spun hei
sunshade to lighten the tension of hei
nerves.
"He confessed frankly to me thti
morning that he Is a fugitive from jus
tlce. He wishes to return to America
He recounted the circumstances 01
| your meeting."
j "Uncle Jim, I have traveled prettj
much over this world, and I never met
a gentleman if Warrington is not one.' j
There was unconscious belligerency li i
her tone.
"Ah, there's the difficulty whlcb
women will never be made to under
stand. Every man can, at one time oi 1
another, put himself upon his good be
havlor. Underneath he may be a fine
rascal."
j "Not this one," smiling. "He warned
me against himself a dosen times, but
that served to make me ftubborn. The
fault of my conduct," acfdly, "was not
in making this pariah's acquaintance
; It lies in the fact that I had nothing to
do with the other passengers, from
choice. That Is where I was Indiscreet
But why should I put myself out to
gain the good wishes of people foi
whom 1 have no liking; people I shall
probably never see again when I leav«
• this port?"
"You forget that some of them will
I be your fellow passengers all the way
I to San Francisco. My child, you know
as well as I do that there are some
laws which the Archangel Michael
would have to obey, did he wish to in-1
j habit this earth for a while."
"Poor Michael! And If you do not J
| obey these laws, people talk."
"Exactly. There are two sets ol
man-made laws. One governs the con-1
duct of men and the other the conduct
, of women."
"And a man may break any one oi i
these laws. I consider it horribly un- :
, fair."
"So it is. But if you wish to live in
f peace, you must submit."
'Peace at that price I have no wish
> for. This man Mallow lives within
I the pale of law; the other man is out
side of it. Yet, of the t<vo, which would
j you be quickest to trust?"
The consul general laughed. "Now
you are appealing not to my knowledge
of the world but to my instinct"
"Thanks."
"Is there any reason why you should
defend Mr. Warrington, as he calls
himself?"
The consul general's wife desperate
ly tried to catch her husband's eye.
But either he did not see the glance or
he purposely Ignored it.
"In defending Mr. Warrington I am
defending myself. My dear friend,"
Elsa went on, letting warmth come
; Into her voice once morb, "my sym
; pathy went out to that man. He looked
: so lonely. Did you notice his eyes?
; Can a man look at you the way he
does and be bad?"
'I have seen Mallow dozens of
times. I know him to be a scoundrel
I of sorts; but I doubt if bald sunlight
could make him blink. Liars have
first to overcome the flickering and
wavering of the eyes."
"He said almost the same thing.
Would he say that if he were a liar?"
"I haven't accused him of being
1 that. Indeed, he struck me as a truth
ful young man. By the way, what is
the name of the firm your father
founded?"
"The Andes Construction company.
Do you think we could find him some
thing to do there?" eagerly. "He builds
bridges."
