heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for cough medicine, wheth-
er it was wanted for a child or for, an
adult, and if for child they almost in
variably recommend Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. The reason for this is
that they know there is no danger from
it and that it always cures. There is
not the least danger in giving it, and for
coughs, colds and Group is unsurpassed.

was Datronized but lightly, and so far
as the young person in plum-color was
concerned, there might just as well
have been no other passengers at all.
After the porter had settled her in
the double seats. she proceeded to I'M
settle herslf. First she opened her
handbag and made sure that her tick
cts were all right. Then she closed
the handbag, sat with puckered brows
for an instant and opened her larger
bag and dropped her handbag into
that. She bent forward to study her
face in the glass, and, absent-mindedly
took out the comb which held her
pompadour with it. readjusted said
scoldfng locks, took another survey
of the pretty picture in the glass and
leaned back in the seat.
A woman entered the car, followed
by a maid a porter and a small boy
in uniform, carrying long stemmed
American beauties, and several boxes
done up in heavy white paper that
suggested French bonbons. The new
arrival cast a perfectly impersonal
glance at the girl in plum-colored
broadcloth and swept on to her seat.
But that glance had completely set
tied the young travellers complacency.
She stood up rather suddenly, smooth
ed out every wrinkle in her blouse and
showed down her narrow velvet girdle.
Then she re-combed her scolding locks
and glanced into the glass to made sure
not one had escaped. Next, off came
her gloves. and with a Wisp of a hand
kerchief she polished her nails. Then
the big bag was lifted up to the seat
beside her and the little bag came into
view. Inside the smaller bag she
found her vanity set, and opening the
tiny circular mirror she began to dab
at her nose with an absurd little puff
Another glance into the mirror and an
expression of intense dissatisfaction
settled on her pretty face. She put
the vanity set back into the smaller
bag, tucked this into the larger bag
and, picking up the latter, disappeared
swiftly in the direction of the dressing
room. Fifteen minutes later-a quar-

WHEN THE WORLD WAS LOST.
(By Frank Harris.)


She was standing by the window Of
hold duties completed. The doors and
windows of the other squalid houses
along the street were already being
filed for the customary evening gossip
and scoIding; and as the shrill voices,
more and more strident and denuncia-
tory, came into the room, she suddenly
dropped the sash and then went and
closed the door.
Seating herself upon one of the two
or three boxes which the room con-
tanned, she tried to fancy she was back
home, gazing out across the apple or
chard and green meadows. But it was
impossible; and soon she was back by
the window, longing for fresh air, but
sNginking from the war of words. With
the sash down she could hear the dull
rising and falling of the denunciauon
and gossip, but was spared the details
Presently she noticed a tall, broad
shouldered figure coming along the
street stopping now and then as
though to make inquiries. When he
came opposite some one pointed to-
ward her door, and he struck directly
across the street through the mud. A
moment his clear, imperative rat-tat
sounded through the house and she
went to the door, wondering who it
could be.
The uncertainty was Of brief dura-
ton, for as the door swung back, his
"JOsie, am glad to see you!" was
mingled with her "Oh, Charlie you
here? Then with a warm flush on
her face she re-entered the room; and
he followed, laughing boyishly and
