ture. She flung it from her with fierce re
lief. When she had got into bed she lay
wakeful for a long time, tortured by ap-
piehension and remorse. What might not
happenin such a house? And why, oh, whv
had she given any excuse to the creatures
by that silly falsehood about her husband?
As she reflected she grew terribly ashamed
of this little falsehood; it swelled to vast
dimensions. She hoped most fervently that
Fred would not discover it. To prevent
that catastrophe she would be silent as to
all the indignities which she had suffered,
and would not eXhort her brother n-law
to call Mr.. Noel Forester to account.
Yet, at last, worn out by these and other no
less poignant self-reproaches, she found
forgetfulness in sleep.
In the morning Susan brought her d
most admirable breakfast; her o own garments
reappeared. dried, brushed, and spruce
In spite of herself she began to feel in
better spirits; but this improvement was
not TO last. Susan dashed her to the ground
again by announcing that Mr. Nettleton
had arrived and was now at breakfast
When would Mrs. Nettleton be pleased to
come downstairs?

suave tone, ''that l think it would be

Marcia raised her eyes in one swift
glance. He was smiling and appeared
unconscious OF anything unusual. But,
as her eyes met his, he gave her one sig
niricant look. It's meaning was plain;
it proposed to her partnership, a con-
spiracy of guilty silence. IL he said
nothing about her falsehood she was to
say nothing of Celeste. Her eyes fell
again to the table, and again she knew
that she blushed. She hated bitterly the
degrading position in which she found
herself.

EXCITEMENT ON THE AVENUE.
How ventriloquist Caused Crowd
to Gather.

There was considerable excitement on
Pennsylvania avenue, between Tenth and
Eleventh streets, about O'Clock yester-
day afternoon, caused by the cries of an
apparently injured dog under the wheels
of west bound cable car At the first
yelp the gripman brought the train to
standStill with a celebrity that tumbled
the passengers over one another.
In moment the car was surrounded by
q large sized crowd, who strained their
eyes to catch a glimpse OF the canine
whose cries continued to emerge from
beneath the wheels. The dog was invis-

yells of pain grew fainter in the dista

case and took out another cigarette Then
he nodded slightly and in rather con

a pause followed. Marcia watched her
companions closely. They glanced at one

hesitation or confusion. Then, to Mar

the same instant into loud and merry
laughter Marcia sprang to her feet. glar-

seconds; the joke seemed to amuse them
very much. At last Celeste controlled
herself and gasped out in an exhausted
tone:
"Oh, Mrs, please. We're all Mrs. to-

another glance at Noel, she went off into

YALE AND CORNELL,
George Langford Talks About the
Recent Race.

George Langford, who stroked the
Yale crew at Henley and also the crew
which took part in the recent three
cCrnered race at Poughkeepsie, return
ed home from the East during the
week, and, although he has given up
his rigorous training, he is pulling
with some of his old mates at the Min
resOta Boat club every day. He has,
like every true Yalensian, little to say
as to how his crew met defeat at the
hands of the Cornell crew. but admits
that his fellows were given a good
hard race, rowed in fast time. In
speaking of the different styles used in
the race, he explained that the public
had a very faint conception of the
various points, and for that reason it
was difficult to make it clear just what
details one crew used as against those
employed by another crew. From COS
sip among his own men, he believes
that there will be certain changes mad
III the modified stroke which Yale used
this season He asserts that Yale hits
her stroke harder than Cornell, but
that the Cornell men put their beef on
their oars until the moment the latter
are drawn from the water. The easy
recovery of their oars, according to
the Yale man, gave the oarsmen from
Ithaca yards of advantage over their
opponents.
IN LdnSIOTQS own words y ale puts
her hard pull right at the catch, while
Cornell piles on her strength hardest
right in the middle of the stroke, sus-
tairS it until the very moment the
blades are lifted from the water and
then RECEIVERS in the easiest, prettiest
manner possible. The Cornell men are
rugged lower in their shell than either
Yale or Harvard The figures would
be inches for Cornell, 81a inches for
Yale and 9 inches for Harvard. Their
low rigging gives Cornell the oppor-
tunity for a harder leg drive, and a
of the body. Next year I believe they
will shorten up the reach somewhat
and give the men more chance for leg
work Our crew was very fast, and
ordinarily should have won the race
To be sure we had the inside course
next the shore, while the Cornell men
were on the outside near the center
of the river, and that may possibly
have been an advantage on account Of
the current.
THE Harvard stroke, as exempIified
by Coach Lehman, has many good
points and l do not see how they can
well get along without him next year.
1t would be too much to expect that
their boys could take up their radical
ly different stroke and make it win in
such a short time. Four of the crew
will be in the varsity next year, in

college keep the Englishman. What
they will do next year. of course re-

BICYCLE VOICE NOW.
Enemies of Wheeling Say 1t Affects
the Vocal Chords,

All the talk of the bicycle face having died
out, the foes Of the wheel have now trotted
out another scarecrow, claiming that, as a
result Of wheeling, women are becoming loud
takers, with an unpleasant quality of voice.
They assert that wheeling, especially with the
mouth open, has detrimental effect on the
vocal chords, and when to this is added the
strain to which the voice is subjected in an
effort to keep up conversation while cy-
cling, the danger seems something more
than a shadow. Some persons who have made
voice culture a life study are inclined to
fall in with these views, asserting that ex-
ercise on the wheel Is responsible for an ap-
parent alteration in the voices Of women.
One vocal teacher says: - -''-.
while bicycle riding people frequently
fill their lungs with dust, and this is, Of
course, injurious. Then the exercise leaves
the system exhausted and unable to resist
the bad effects of excessive perspiration. A
severe cold is detrimental to the speaking
voice, and when these colds are frequent, as
they are with bicyclists, they viii ultimately
result in permanent injury. If women would
ride but, aifeW. miles at. a. time -and.weuld
keep their mouths closed, there would be no
danger but l find that many of my pupils
cannot refrain from OVERRIDING. the sport Pro
fessional women realize the. harm that BIZ
cycling does to their voices. but they say
that they cannot bear to give up wheeling.
Calling to one another wheelwomen fire.
quently do, cannot help but strain the voice
Another vocal instructor holds totally OPP
posite views. Said She 81 am strongly in
favor of cycling for women 1t is most
healthful exercise, and so cannot fail to be
beneficial to the singing and speaking voice.
l do not believe the old-fashioned theory of
things affecting the vocal chords directly.
OF course 1t is possible to strain the voice,
but @! should think this most unlikely when
wheeling. The very tendency Of the wheel
is to keep the rider quiet. If riders should
call from one to the other when outdoors,
their speaking voice might be affected, but
the most strdent speakers are often the
sweetest singers The soft, we'll modu:ated
voice of the English girl does not give US
as many brilliant examples of the song bird
as the less pleasant and somewhat nasal
tones of the American. Nine out of every
ten successful singers abroad today are
Americans. This is because the other girls
are never allowed to expand their lungs with
the same delightful freedom. good diges-
ton is the first requisite toward good sing
ing. | should say poor cooks have more to
do with spelling the voice than all the wheels
in Christendom. A theory has been advan-
ced that the rapid breathing necessary when
riding the wheel is injurious. This is wrong,
as the vocal chords are completely protected
when not in use.'

PEN AND CAMERA
Combine to Illustrate Il New Grand
Trunk Brochure.

The Grand Trunk railway has sent
its Northwestern representative, w. r.
Jaffray, consignment of the exceed
ingly attractive volume, just issued.
which is called "Gateways Of Tourist
Travel" containing a number of pen
and camera pictures of the points of
interest along its line of road. Photo
graph effects and brief comprehensive
stories about the scenery are contained
within the covers and relate to Niagara
falls, Thousand islands, Rapids of the
st. Lawrence, Montreal Quebec, Parry
sound, Georgian bay, Muskoka lakes,
Adirondacks, Lake st. John, Mackinac
island midland district lakes, the
White mountains, the Saguenay river,
Rangeley lakes and the sea shore.
All this matter is cleverly arranged
and the brochure is a model of the
printers art. The half-tone effects on
both land and water are especially eff
fecttve, and neatly arranged with the
reading matter. Not the least interest
ing feature is a little pertinent gossip
anent the famous trains of the Grand
Trunk
