Was it perhaps possible-—I gave a ghort, ugly little laugh at my own folly, gibing at myself for trying to find a loophole of excuse for Dicky when there could be none. But, de- spite my own ridicule, I knew that I had filed the idea away in one of my memory compartment, and that some day I would bring it out again and look at it. The headlights of a motor car pierced the darkness in which I was standing and the next minute Dicky had sprung out of a taxi and rushed toward me. “What the devil?” he began ex- citedly. “Do you mean to tell me they shut up the station and left you out here alone in the dark? Where can I and that station agent?"” He turned to the taxi driver with an air that threatened instant anni- hilation to the railroad official. “Don’t bother about that now,” I you crazy interrupted imperatively before the man could answer.. “I'm perfectly all right. Nothing at all happened to me, and we probably’ will never see the town again. So why make a fuss?"” ““You said a mouthful then,” he re- turned emphatically. “This section is sure off the map for me from this time on. Of all the gossip-infested.

And then we were shut up in the taxi, the driver separated from us by a closed window, and were whirled out into the darkness of the road. Ten minutes reading the Herald statue.

She, her mind filled with thoughts of the ideal happiness of their married life, starts for her parents’ home In a *small inland city, GO ON WITH THE STORY There, in the gloom of her berth, with the train speeding past small villages and stretches of open coun- try, Kate Ward went over that one day which stood out beyond all others. She remembered every nuance of her mother's voice as the words came from the doorway—-"What, you back?” Whisperingly she repeated them., She hadn’'t been much past 18 then, a developed little thing for that ge with almost too much of the woman about her. There was too much of an air of knowing, something tragic in the droop of her shoulders. All through the years that followed when she saw girls so young with that air of knowing and that pitiful droop, she wanted to run after them and take them home somewhere to a mother who wouldn’'t say: “What—youn back?"” Kate had brushed past her mother that day and had gone to the little room under the eaves. There, among, the things she had known in those glad days before she had measured her strength against a city, she cried. Perhaps, if her mother had gone then to the room under the eaves, everything in Kate Ward's life would have been different. But her mother had cucumbers to put up, the kitchen to sweep and neighbors to gossip with. So 18-year-old Kate flung down on A_Stubborn Cough Loosens Right Up This home-made remedy is & wone der for quick results. .

Cried it out until heér heart was void of tears and couldn't even ache any more, Kate Ward never cried after that day-not once during all of the peril- ous months which followed. Finally she washed away the traces of tears, followed the washing with daubs of pink, and sat down quietly to wait. She wouldn't go downstairs, She'd just wait until dusk. As the supper hour neared she heard her father's voice and then lis- tened as his heavy boots clumped over the kitchen floor. He wasn't coming up. But then, the door of her room was closed and she wouldn’t hav, opened it anyway. She wondered for a second what she would have done if he had come up and opened the door. She declded she would haves slipped under the bed. Just there her heart almost softened, There were tears on the verge of being. She fought with herself. And came out winner, if a Iittle hardened. She had never got along very well with her mother. And perhaps she shouldn't have gone to the city. Then there were the tales that drifted back. Part of them, true, too. But weren't mothers and homes supposed to be things you could al- ys count on? The other girls said t was true. And she had started back from the eity with such a vow to he good forever and rnrmer But—"What-—¥ou back ? She hardened under the luh of it and she hated! It was dark when 18-year-old Katie dropped the little traveling bag out of the window. In a few minutes she swung from the sill and dropped the short distance to the soft earth below. Off down the shadowy path: she went. Katie was once more on the open road. SLEEPY-TIME TALES JIMMY RABBIT MORE | was Peter's exact opposite.

The shade is merely a piece of silk draped over a wire frame, such as one can buy in any department store. The transfer design is worked aut in beads, and small loops of beads weigh down' the folds. The silks are the newest shades and very attractive. To reeline comfortably in the glow shed through this lamp shade, how- ever, one needs such an accessory as the brilliant peacock pillow.

Dr. Carleton Simon, deputy police commissioner in charge of the nar- coti¢ squad, who has had the pris- oner under observation, turned the bodies over to Prof. Herbert F. Schwartz of the American museum of natural history, by whom they had been identifled as members of a Euro- pean family, Demestes Vulpinus, known in America under the alias of larder beetle. The vulpinus family arrived in New: York several days ago, nestled inside the wrapper of drugs smug- gled into this country from England. Immediately they were put under observation, the sextette declared a hunger strike and for five days re- fused to eat. Jailers tempted them with everything from ice cream to pretzels, but they remained steadfast. One by one they died of starvation, until only “Dodo the terrible’ was left. Deputy Simon then tossed a grain of morphine into the pill-box cell of the bugs. Dodo awakened from his lethargy, sniffed it, then split it neatly with ‘his powerful little jaws. He ate a morsel withdrew, rolled on his back and slept. Ten ‘minutes later he returned to the feast, gorged himself and retired. Thus methodically he consumed the whole grain of morphine. Now Dr. Simon declares he will be treated as a drug addict. 8 SOFT COAL CAUSES FIRE Netr London, Dec. 12.—City Coun- eilor Clarence W.
