A passing litney & damaged and Bess Gilbert, a shop- pirl, on her way home, is knocked to e pavement, Ned promises a po- deeman that he will settle with all njured parties, The young lady is taken home in Sornet's car. Ned tells his father of he accident, Godfrey Cornet re. ninds his son that in his 29 years A has never done a man-size joh. The elder Cornet offers Ned two | thousand silk and velvet gowns to| ake to Northern Canada and Alaska 0 exchange with the Indians for fine Yrs.

The latter took out a --Ilnrl-nr.Y fghted it, and gazed meditatively Brough the smoke, “Fifty thou- and!" he whispered greedily, “And Vsuppose 1 could d the hardship," ‘Then he looked up, faintly smiling, | “T'll go, If Lenore will let me,” he sronounced at last, 111, The exact moment that her name was on Ned's lips, Lenore Harden- worth herself, in her apartment in a «'egion of fashionable apartments sght blocks from the Cornet home, Was also wondering at the perverse Wways of parents It was strange how Helr selfish interests could disarrange ne’s happiest plans. Al in all, Le- jore was in a wretched mood, savage- angry at the world in general and er mother in particular. It was the way of the old, Lenore teflected, to give too much of their thought and interest to their own d {lls. Not even a daughter's llfant career could stand between. And. who would have guessed that the *nervousness” her mother had com- dlained of so long, pandered to by a ‘ashionable quack and nursed like a saby by the woman herself, should jver lead to such disquleting results. Phe doctor had recommended a sea royage to the woman, and the old ‘ool had taken him at his word. It was not that Lenore felt she uld not spare, for some months, +yer. mother’s gulding influence. Tt vas merely that sea voyages cost noney, and money, at that particular ime, was scarce and growing scarcer tbout the Hardenworth apartment. jeemingly the only course that re- nained svas to move forward the date ’f her marriage to Ned, at present set ‘or the following spring. She dried 1er ‘eyes, powdered her nose; and for M1 the late storm made a bewitching dicture as she tripped to the door in unswer to her flance's knock, Lenore Yardenworth was in all probability ‘he most beautiful girl in her own itylish set and one of the most hand- ‘ome women in her native city. She 4as really well known, remembered ng and in many places, for her Salr. It was simply shimmering gold, nd it framed a face of flowerlike jeauty—and even-featured, oval face, Jicftly tinted and daintily piquant. . Ned came in soberly, kissed the firl’s invitidg lips, then sat beside her dn the big divan, Studying his grave “'ace, she waited for him to speak. "~ ""Bad new § She spoke almost sreathlessly, and he turned toward jer with wakened interest. ¢ “Nothing very important,” he told ‘yer-casually. “I'm afraid I startled ‘You with my lugubrious tones, Ve ‘ got to.go away for three months.” “Ned! You can't! After all our plaps. I wdn't hear of jt—'" “Wait, dearest!" the man pleaded. “Of course I won't go if you say tot—" . Ot course I say not—" “But it's a real opportunity—to ‘nake forty or fifty thousand. Wait 411 I tell you about it, anyway.” . <He told her simply: the exact plan +fhat his father had proposed. Her terest quickened as he talked. . +The idea of trading obsolete gowns ‘or beautiful furs was particularly at- ractive to her. “I've got some old things I could. spare,” she told him Jagerly. “Why couldn’t you take fhose with' you and trade them to tome old squaw for furs?" T ——————— |sable for a great wrap, +|tcld him. “I could! I don't . see why | shouldn’t bring you back some beau. ties. Her eyes were suddenly lustful, “1I'd like some siiver fox—and enough Oh, Ned— do you think you could get them for me?™ His face seemed rather drawn and wirthless as he returned her stare, It had been too complete a victory, It can be said for the man that he had come with the idea of persuadi Lenore to let him go, to let him leave her arms for the sake of the advan- tages to be accrued from the expe. dition, but at least he wanted her to show some regret, “Ned, what kind of a trip will this he?" she asked him He was more held by the undertone | of excitement In her voice ‘than by the question itself, “What is it?" he ed, “What do you mean—? 1 mean~—will it he a hard trip— one of danger and discomfort? “I don't think so I'm going to get a comfortable yacht—it will be a NED KISSED THE GIRL'S VITING LIPS, launch, of course, but a big, comfort- able one—havc a. good cook and pleasant surroundings. It's all in my hands—hiring crew, schooner, itiner- ary, and everything. Of course, father told a wild story about cold and hardship and danger, but I don't bélieve there's a thing in it.” “I don't elther, It makes me laugh, those wild and woolly stories about the North! This hardship they talk about is all poppycock, and you know it—and the danger, too. To hear your father talk, and some of the others of the older generation, you'd think they hadgbcen through the infernal regions. They didn't have the sporting stincts that's been developed in the last genera- tion, Ned." b She paused, and he stared at her blankly. He knew perfectly ‘well that some brilliant idea had occurre, to her: he was simply waiting fi her to tell it. She moved nearer and slipped her hand between his, “Ned, I've a wonderful plan,” she “There's no reason why we should bé separated for three months, You say the hiring of the launch, itinerary, and everything is in your hands. Why not take mother and me with you?" y “My dear—" “Why not? Tell me that! The doctor has just recommended her a sea trip, Where could she pget ‘a [ LOSTREST FROM PIMPLES On Face and Forehead.

His first work, of course, was to see about hiring a’launch, Ten minutes' ride took him to the office of his friend, Rex Nard,,vice president of a’ great marine-outfitting establishment, and five minutes' con- versation with this ‘ gentleman told him all he wanted to know. Yes, as it happened, Nard knew of a corking a that moment. . in reed of a charterer, possibly just the thing that Cornet wanted. “This particular craft was built for a sclentific expedition sent out by one of the great museums,” Nard ex- plained. “It isn't just a fisherman's scow. She has a nifty galley and a snug little dining saloon, and two foxy little staterooms for extra toney parsengers. Quite .an up-stage littie boat. Comfortable as any yacht you ever saw."” How about cargo space “I don't know exactly—but it was big enough for several tons of walrus and musk ox skeletons, so it ought to s1it you.” . m for “T don't think—I know, 1 was talking to her owner y2sterday noon. You: carf get her for ninety days for five thousand dolars—seventy-five per for a shorter time,. That includes the gervices of four men, licensed pilot, first and second engineer, and ‘a nigger ccok; and gas and oil for the motor." Ned stood up, his black eyes spark- ling with elation, and put on his hat. “Where do I find her?" “Hunt up Ole Knutsen, at this ad- dress:"” Nard wrote an instant on a sirip of paper. ““The name of the craft 'is the Charon.” Ned drove to the. designated ad- dress, found the owner of the craft, dnd executed a charter after ten min- utes ‘of ‘conversation. Knutsen was a'big, good-natured man with a good- ly share of Norse blood that had { paled his eyes and. hair. . Together ithey drew up the list of supplies. ¢ | “0f course, we might put in some jof dis stuff at norden ports,' Knutsen told him in the unmistakable accent of the Norse. . “You'd save money, though, by getting it here.” “All except one ftem-—last but not least,” Ned: assured him. “I've got to stop,at Vancover.” “Canadian territory, eh—?" “Canadian whiskey. Six cases of Iimperial quarts, We'll be gone a tlong time, and a sailor needs his grog."” There was really very little else for Ned to do. ‘The silk gowns and wraps that were.to be his principal article of trade would not be received for a few days at least; and seemingly he had arranged for everything. He started -lefsurely back toward his {uther's office. RBut yes, there was one thing more. His father had said that his staff must Include a fitter—>4 woman who could ply the needle and make minor altera- tions in the gowns, He knew where he: could procure some one to do the fitting.

PULLEN'S TOPIC Health Superntedent _ Gives Socond Weely Health Talk The dangers of scarlet fever and how to prevent its spread are dis- cussed by Dr, Richard W. Pullen, superintendent of the health depart- ment, in the second of a series of weekly health talks, published here- with, Speaking of communicable disease, Dr, Pullen says: “Last week the common Increase in communieable disease which fol- lows the opening of the schools was discussed, It may be of value to dis- cuss these diseases soparately, “Searlet fever Is a disease which most commonly affects ehildren une der 10 years of age. It Is very con- taglous, Statistics show that nine out of every ten deaths from scarelet fover are in children under 10 years of age. This means that the disease is most dangerous to children. Adults are more or less Immune, “Searlet fever sprends mostly from person to person though at times It may be spread indirectly. ' The most dangerous source of this type of s in milk. That is the the dairies and farms are inspected and are stopped from selling milk in New Britain when there is a case of scarlet fever on the farm or In the dalry, “The disease develops usually with- in elght days after exposure, The first symptoms noted in children are these: The child suddenly begins to be nervous, restiess and tired, The skin becomes very hot and dry and the tongue is seen to be covered with a thick white fur, TUnder this fur the tongue is red and owollx. A high temperature is noticed almaht at once. The rash, which is purplish red In color appears on the second or third day and 1s.most noticeable on the arms, legs, abdomen andchest. On the arms and legs it is most pronounced in the bend of the knees and elbows. “There is also a sort throat as u general rule, “If your child has any of these symptoms, have your family doctor come at once, the child may not have scarlet fever but you had better play safe and let the doctor decide. “If your child has scarlet fever, it must be isolated. That means of course that you will have to have the red sign on the house. But this s only fair to-the other children In New Britain.

The sick child must not use dishes, glasses, knives or forks that are used by anyone else. “6, Do not veturn any milk bot- tles to the milk man while there is scarlet fever in your house. Make the milkman bring the bottles to the door and pour the milk dnto some container which you furnish and do not let this container touch the milk bottle at all. 6. Take care that all discharges from the nose and mouth are collect- ed on paper handkerchief or some oloth that can be burned after it is used, s “7. Do what your doctor tells you. He is doing his best to help you. “8. Don't think because yourohild has a mild case that it is not danger- ous, It is dangerous and a mild case can spread the disease just as easily as a severe one, “9, Remember that if you want to keep your own children well you must help to keep other children well, “10, Don't try to send your child back to .school until the doctor tells you it is all right. have complications that make it nec- child" in one essary for him to be kept in bed for some time after the acute stage of the disease s over, “If you observe these rules and the orders of your doctor you are helping the: community and you are helping your own family."” Will: Hold Classes in Washington School Although work on the Washington school will not be completed by Tues- day, September 11, when the school year is scheduled to open, sesslons will be held in that building, Chair- man B.
