Your diplomacy Is admirable" he
congratulated, passing her the coffee
pot.
Lunch over, Bedight packed the
cooking outfit and replaced 1t In the
boat. The sky was smoky In the west,
smoky with heat that generated a
strange rsstlessness among the quiv-
ering trees, while the air was sur
charged with a portentous Quietude
that presaged q clash OF elemental
fury. A black cloud stood upon the
rim of the lake and caused a look OF
concern In Bedight's eyes. A glance
In Miss McConnell's direction showed
the girl absorbed in her work. The
mayor picked up a magazine and
stretched himself upon the sward be-
meath a huge yellow birch. He was
attracted from his story a half hour
later by a shadow across the sun.
Hurriedly springing to his feet. he
scanned the sky. A mass OF black with
liyid green patches and scurrying fore
runners OF white froth lay like a
monstrous curtain across the west,
through which shot veins OF gold like
roots of mammoth trees. A deep rum
BILE, bass in its %intonation, rolled
across the sky, warning the creatures
Of the earth that oon their master
would be abroad in the land to wreck
and destroy.
The woman, too, aware of the dan
ger, sat gazing apprehensivsly at the
disturbed sky.
"Oh, Mr.. Bedight." she cried, with
the yeriest trife Of anxiety in her
voice, I'VE must be going. The sky
looks like a storm"
The mayor came ove to Miss Mo
Cornell and, standing beside her,
gazsd analytically into the west.
II think we will be safer here" he
advised. quietly. "The storm will
break before We can reach the Inn"
"But we cannot stay in this ruined
hut. 1t leaks and the doors are gons."
objected Miss Mcconnell. Come on.

The man hesitated.
Don't you think It wiser to remain
here until the storm Ia over7 We are
4 long ways from Squirrel Inn," coun-
seled the mayor.
"But the wind will kick up the lakes
until We can't get across for hours"
cried the oma nervously.
"Somstimes," said Bedight. looking
squarely at her. "a man Is not as
dangerous after dark a = wind

NONSENSE" exclaimed Miss McCon-
nell. where's your sporting blood.
Let's make a try for It,"
The mayor turned and walked down
to the boat. The girl followed and got
aboard. He rolled up the sleeves Of
his light shirt and took the oars. As
he did SO, a drop of rain fell into the
boat.
Really, Miss Mcconnell" he pro-
tested, this is unwiss. You will not

Public notice is hereby given pursu-
ant to a resolution of the Council of
the city of Perth Amboy, adopted at a
regular meeting of said body, held on
the seventh day of October, nineteen
hundred and twelve, that 1t is the in
t~ention of the Council to cause q l2-

tions in writing to the undersigned on

sions the brighter colors provide a
better choice. These heavy coats are
as warm, almost, as fur, and have GER
tain advantages over these luxurious
garments.
Evening wraps and those designed
with an eye to grace and beauty, are
much draped. The kimono coat holds
Its own along with the new wraps OF
satin and velvet. The combination Of
rich embroideries with dark solid col
or fabrics must be conceded to be
most beautiful. Wraps of black sat
III lined with the same o contrasting
colors, are draped much in the man
per of the new skirts. and when fas-
tened, display their lines to the best
advantage, enfolding the figure grace
fully.
Many brocaded Innings are to be
used. Royal blue with glints of bright
gold, shades Of copper and brown, rich
puppies and exquisite gray and white
are elluring splendors IN these fabrics.
When considering garments OF velvet,
satin, etc, lined with brocades, 1t must
be borne In mind that they are for
grown-ups, for matrons, and not for
the young maid. There IL nothing
about them to suggest & rlhood. Sim
pier clothes, or at leas~ those that
seem simpler, belong properly to the
merry maid, before she takes on the
dignity of the matron.

BY HELEN WARE.

How does II feel to be q star? The
answer to that question Is very discourage
ing: It is one that is likely to knock
into cooked hat the delusions which the
public has about the star whose name
is hung In electric lights in front OF
the theater.
Being star isn't any fun" says
Helen Ware. who will appear at the
Brandeis next Sunday night In ''The
Price" why. II the right man came
along today. I'd give up the stage and
settle down with him in a little home
and be the happiest woman in the world.
With the little children that want
about me. l know could find JOY in
life that being star could never. never
afford me. But. being a star and having
child OF your own don't go together.
Having no home and no little Riddles
about you is one OF the prices you pay
for being star.
''It never, never succeeds. this attempt
OF theatrical stars to marry a man who
isn't on the stage and then remain on
the stage themselves. Home or your
name on the electric sign-you've got to
choose between them, II you want to be

This sounds as IL / didn't get any
satisfaction out OF my success, but do.
but not in the way that the public thinks
star gets pleasure out of her triumphs.
The star gets little satisfaction out OF
seeing his name or her name in the
lights. or headlined on the billboards. The
true satisfaction comes from seeing my
self progress and improve in my work.
Being star, as 1 said before, is not
much fun. But getting to be one Is a
delightful mixture Of pain and delight.
