It was not from the sky, however, but from across the oocean that the help Lilllan had longed for in solving the mystery of Dicky’s cruel abandon- ment of me finally came. It was less than a week after the receipt of Grace Drager'’s message that Lillian and I, sitting in her wonderful white and scarlet living room one evening after little Marion had gone to bed, heard Betty ushering in callers. “Betty must know. them or she wouldn't bring them in unannounced,” Idliian murmured ,as she rose to her feet ,and then the next moment there ‘'wis framed in the doorway the tall figure of Dr. Pettit, and with him, wonder of wonders! the slight form, the beautiful,’ wistful, tired face of Katherine Sonnot, my dear riend, || whase ambition to go to France as & nurse I had been able to further. “My dear! what has happend to you?” ' Katherine exclaimed solicit~ ously. ‘I received no answer to iy letter saying I was coming home, 80 When I reached New York I went to'Dr. Pettit. ' He thought you were | st Masvin, I was not quite sure, for she ' wis half-orying over the tele- phane, but I thought she said for keeps.’ ™ She stopped and laoked at me with a hint of fright in her manner. I knew she wanted to ask about Dicky's absenoce and did not dare to do 0. “Bverything you heard” is true, Katherine,” I returned, a trifis un- steadily, as her arms went around me warmly. I was more than a trifle upset by her coming, for associated with her were memories of my brothercousin, Jack Bickett, who had gone to 'the great war when he had learned that R Fancy Gelatines make de- s Fade Away As If By Magic. “Neutrone Preacription 99" for rheumatism!

Darkens beautifully and nobody can tell—Brinks back its gloss and youthfulness Gommon garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and ) faded hair beautifully dark and luxur- iant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is trouble- some,. An easler way is to get the ready-to-use preparation improved by the addition of other ingredients, cost- ing about 50 cents a large bottle, at drug stores, known as “Wyeth’'s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” thus avoid- ing a lot of muss. ‘While gray, faded hair is not sin- ful, we all desire to retain our youth- ful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Bage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so natural- ly, so evenly.

OF A WIFE I was married, and of whose death “somewhere in France,” I had heard through Mrs., Stewart. “Where is your husban Dr. Pettit demanded, and there was that in his voice which told me that he was putting an iron hand upon his own emotions, Now the stock answer which Lilllan and I returned to all inquiries of this sort was “In San Francisco upon & big commissoin.” It was upon my lips, but some influence stronger than any wijl made me change it to the truth. *“I do not know”, I said faintly. “He left the city very abruptly several weeks ago, sending word in a leter to Mrs. Underwood that he would never see me again.” Dr. Pettit muttered something thit I knew was a bitter anathema against Dicky, “and, then folded his ' arms tightly across his chest as if he would' keep in any further comment. But I had no ti to pay any attention to him, for Katherine Sonnot was utter- ing words that bewildered and terri- fled me. #OB What Is Ter» \ “Oh, how terrible!” she sald. “Jack will be grieved! He had so hoped to find you happy together when he came home.” ‘Was the girl's brain turned. I won- dered, because of grief for my brother-cousin’s.death? I had known before I secured the chance for her | to g0 to France that she was roman- tically interested in the man who had ‘been her brother’s comrade, although she had never seen him. And from Jack's letters to Mrs. Stewart I had learned of their meeting in the French hospital, and of the acquaintance which promised to ripen—which evidently had ripened—into love. I looked at her eearchingly. She showed no evidence of any brain dis- turbance, And then I spake, hardly able to get the words out for the wild trembling of my whole body: “Jack grieved!” I said. “Why, Jack is dead, We had the ‘motice of his death weeks ago from his friend, Paul Caillaril.” I saw them all look at me as if frightened. Dr. Pettit reached me first and put something under my nostrils which vitalized my wander- ing .senses. I straightened myself and cried out peremptorily: “What is it, oh, what is 1t?” I saw Katherine look at Dr. Pettit as if for permission, and the young physician's lips form the* words— “Tell her.” “No, dear, Jack is not dead,” she sald aoffly “He 'was missing for some time, and was brought into our hospital terribly woundei, but he is very much alive no be here in New York in tw weeki I felt the pungent revivifiér in Dr. Pettit’s hand steal under my nostrils |- again, but I pushed it l.l‘lde and sat up. What Dr. Pettit A&efl. ¢ “I am (not at all faint”, I sald abruptly, ‘l.nd then to Katherine Son- not: 'Please say that over u*lin. slowly.” She repeated her words slowly. *I should have waited to come over with him,” she added, “for he is still quite weak, but Dr. Braithwaite had to send some one over to attend to business in New - York for the hos- pital. He. selected me, 'and so I had to come on earlier.” So it was true, then, this miracle of Jack, the brother-cousin on whom I had depended all my life, and still in the same world with me! Some of the terrible burden I had 6 been bearing since Dicky's disappedrance slipped away for me. If any ane in the world could solve the mystery of Dicky's actions it would be Jack Bickett. Dr. Pettit's voice broke into my reverie. I saw that Lillian and Kath- erine Sonnot were deep in conversa- tion. The young physician and I were far enough away from them so that there was no possiblity of his low tones being heard.--He bent over my chair, and his eves were burning with a light that terrified me. “THE SUNSHINE GIRL” AT FOX'S THEATER Captivating June Caprice, better known to the Film fans as “The Sun- shine Girl,” because of pleasing per- sonality and ever-ready smile, will be one of the attraction at Fox’s tomor- row and Saturday when Wilima Fox presents his latest feature attraction “The Small Town Girl,” in which she plays the leadng role of those sweet little stories from the Fox studios, featuring this popular star, that have become so0 dear to the hearts of the photoplay fans.

There are some people who hate to give away sympathy as much as a skinflint hates to give away money. Their heart strings are even tighter than their purse strings. 1 heard someone making an appeal for sympathy to a womze of this type i the other day. The only response she got was a | tightening of the latter’s features and ia “Yes, I know, but just think what a hard time I have.” But Why Not Both Give and Re- ceive Sympathy.

The fact that you have a hard time is not a reason that you should have no tenderness in your heart’for other fieople who also have hard rows ‘to oe. On the contrary! 4 The greatest character tragedy in the world is that of the people who have been soured ifistead of sweet- ened by adversity. They have had the adversity and they haven't had its one compensation. To Be Surc Some People Are Sympathy Greedy. Of course there are people abuse sympathy. I have recently seen a very. strik- ‘who ‘| ing example of that. An acquaintance of mine passed through a most bitter experience. She confided her troubles to a very dear friend' and the latter proved the worth of'her friendship by giving her @ wealth of tender and understand- ing sympathy. It was like balm to her wounded spirit. Without it she might have broken, down altogether. ‘With it she should have pulled herself together. But she didn’t- Instead of making an effort to be more cheer- ful, she permitted herself to be lugu- brious because that brought more sympathy. She was constantly need- ing to be cheeréd up. By and by, the too generous friend was called away. on a journey, and thus forced to lean on her own strength, the lady of the many troubles at once began to de- velop some backbone of her own. A Tonic Not a Drug. Sympathy should be used as a tonic not as a drug. To use ‘another metaphor,—sym- pathy is like a warm bath, at first it rests your weary muscles and stim- ulates you but if you continue it too long it enervates you. To give understand convincing sym- pathy and give it in the/right quan- titles, surely this is a task for all that a friend has of tact and unselfishness! nual bridge whist and sale of homed made candy for the benefit of th¥ scholarship fund, at Booth's hall on Snturd.y afternbon, May 12th, from from any of the members.—advt.
