During the March Funebre,' her eyes

face was expressive of admiration and
intense interest When the pianist

IMPRISONED FOR SMUGGLING

To defraud the government of the
United States of it's customs coming
here from the old world has been the
darling wish of many women ever
since Americans have been able to in
dulge in the luxury of an ocean voy-
age. Miss Multimillionaire, secure in
her social position, did not like to be
held up on the dock and made to pay
large sums for being caught trying to
swindle the government. But when
she is caught finally she chafes under
her treatment, but society stands by
her and that encourages others to fol-
low her example.
To remove this prop from the FASH
ionable woman the authorities have
decided to jail those caught In de-
frauding Uncle Sam Of his dues. This
penalty, it is thought, will prevent rep
utable women from engaging in the
business.
The first to suffer the Imprisonment
and the odium which attaches to 1t is

CHAPTER VII.

For few moments Underwood was
too much overcome by emotion to
speak. Alicia brushed by in naughty
silence, not deigning to look at him.
All he heard was the soft rustic of
her clinging silk gown as it swept
along the floor. She was incensed
with him, of course, but she had
come. That was all he asked. She
had come in time to save him. He
would talk to her and explain every
thing and she would understand.
She would help him in this crisis as
she had in the past. Their long
friendship, all these vears of intimacy.
could not end like this. There was
still hope for him. The situation was
not as desperate as he feared. He
might yet avert the shameful end of
the suicide. Advancing toward her,
he said in 'hoarse whisper:
"Oh, this is good of you, you've
come-this is the answer to my let
ter" ~
Alicia ignored his extended hand
and took a seat. 4 Then, turning on
him, she exclaimed Indignantly:
1.-The answer should be horse
whip. How dare you send me such
a messenger" Drawing from her bag
the letter received from him that
evening, she demanded:
What do you expect to gain by
this threat?"
Don't be angry, Alicia"
Underwood spoke soothingly, trying
to conciliate her. Well he knew the
seductive power of his voice. Often
he had used it and not in vain, but
tonight it fell on cold, Indifferent
ears.
Don't call me by that name" she
snapped.
Underwood made no answer. He
turned slightly paler and, folding his
arms, just looked at her, in silence.
There was an awkward pause.
At last she said
Il hope you understand that every
things over between us. Our ac-
quaintance is at an end"
MY feelings toward you can never
change" replied Underwood earnest
ly. Il love you-I shall always love
you"
Alicia gave a little shrug of her
shoulders, expressive of utter indiffer-
ence.
"Love!" she exclaimed mockingly
''You love no one but yourself"
Underwood advanced nearer to her
and there was a tremor in his voice
as he Said:
you have no right to say that You
remember what we once were. Whose
fault is it that | am where | am to-
day? When you broke our engage
ment and married old Jeffries to graft
fly your social ambition, you ruined my
life. You didn't destroy my love-you
couldn't kill that. You may forbid me
everything-to see you-to speak to
you-even to think of you, but | can
never forget that you are the only
woman | ever cared for. If you had
married me, | might have been a diff
ferent man. And now, just when l.
want you most, you deny me even your
friendship. What have l done to de-
serve such treatment? Is it fair? Is
it just?" &
Alicia had listened with growing i'm
patience. IT was only with difficulty
that she contained herself Now she,
interrupted him holly:
81 broke my engagement with you
because / found that you were deceiv-
ing me--just as you deceived others.
Its lie!" broke in Underwood Il
may have trifled with others. but
never deceived you."

CONSUMPTION Spreads in SYRIA.

Consumptives in Syria are treated
today much in the same way as the
lepers have been for the last 1000
years. tuberculosis is a comparative
ly recent disease among the Arabs and
Syrians, but SO rapidly has it spread
that the natives are in great fear of
it. Consequently when member of
a family is known to have the disease,
he is frequently cast out and compelled
to die of exposure and want. A small
hospital for consumptives has been
opened at Beyrout under the direction
of DR. Mary P. Eddy.
