those who are too vehement in voice

is never convinced that any one is
superior who assumes loud, ag-

more to be pitied than dimdent, anx-

more unfavorable impression.
Consciousness Of ones dress is bad

The Most Exciting Serial
of the Year.

WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE.

The scene Of the story is laid in
the Vanderlip Hotel, New York
city. The Princess Maria Theresa
OF SegUra, a beautiful Spanish
woman, is suddenly awakened in
her suite by the sound of pistol
shots. She hears a man running
down the hall. He crashes against
her door, breaking the lock, and
enters. She sees he is a tall, good
looking young man, dressed in
evening clothes. He is carrying a
revolver in his right hand, and
blood is dripping from a wound in
his left. He begs the Princess to
hide him. She, moved by some in
describable impulse, decides that
she will. She directs him to an
inner room, and few minutes
later, when the hotel detective
knocks on the door, she tells him
she is all right and sends him
away. The young man, who is
warren Jarvis. of Kentucky. comes
out of his hiding place, and the
Princess, for the first time, notices
his wound. She is moved to SYM
pathy and showers him with ques-
tons as to what has occurred. Jar
Wis tells her about a Kentucky
feud between his family and an
other named Markham He SAYS
he left Kentucky to avoid the feud-
lists, but encountered one of them
In the hotel, which explains the
shots. The Princess declares she
will help him, and then asks the
stranger question, Are you afraid
Of ghosts?" Jarvis laughs. but
grows solemn when the Princess
tells him she has dangerous work
for him to do. She makes him
swear allegiance, and creates him
her ''vassal." Then she tells him
to get her trunk, which is going
to be shipped to a steamship on
which she sails to Spain the fol-
lowing day. First Jarvis tells her
TO telephone to his servant, Rusty
Snow, a negro. The servant is in
structed to procure passage for
himself and Jarvis in the ship.
Jarvis then prepares to get into
the trunk, but first begins to ques-
ton the Princess about herself.
Now go on with the story.

TO-DAY'S INSTALLMENT.

AS the latch Of the closing door
clicked the lid Of the trunk lifted a few
inches, as If the two occurrences had
had a common impulse Assured that
he was alone, Jarvis pushed the lid all
the way back and slowly sat upright
in the bottom of the trunk The ex-
IRENE caution of his movements was
not so mu%h due to the fear of being
overheard as to the conviction that the
long pounding he had undergone had
rendered him brittle, and that a sudden
movement would inevitably break a
piece Of him off somewhere.
"Oh, Lord"' he calculated feebly but
earnestly when he had at last gained an
upright position He sat, squirming
slightly. for few moments, as if ac-
customing himself to the new posture,
and then with infinite caution extracit-
ed a cigarette case and matches from
his trousers pocket and lit a cigarette.
the achievement OF which caused num-
berless suppressed but sincere groans.
oh" he growled, 'if 1 only had that
last baggage man here"
At last. with infinite pains-this being
a defensible pun-he got out OF the
trunk and Strengthened himself to his
full length.
We'll, I'm all here" he decided, look
ing himself over with feeble satisfac-
ton. This movement caused a fresh
kink to develop in the back of his neck.
Most alli he hastily corrected himself
He hobbled to a pier glass and surveyed
the reflection with doleful mutterings.
But this was his last concession to
physical discomfort. He had a lot to
do and a very short time in which to
do it. His first necessity was TO find
out where his own stateroom might be
and bring Rusty to his aid. A little wall
telephone hung by the mirror and in a
half minute he heard Rustys deep mel
low wheeze. the most grateful sound
that had reached his ears in hours He
ordered Rusty to repair forthwith to
Stateroom "A" on the promenade deck
with a topcoat and a hat, his own having
been carried off by the faithful servi-
tor in the bundles that he took from
ths Princess suite in the hotel.
IF Rusty gets here before that ex-
allied cousin returns I'll be all right" 10
reflected with satisfaction. as he hung
up the receiver. Il wonder what the
game is? Sounds like a real romance

((VX THOM God hath Joined togeth-
wv er let no man put asunder."
In the last twenty years
more than ONE MIL
LION divorces have been granted in this
country alone. An average of FIFTY
THOUSAND each year. Seventy three
divorces for every hundred thousand
people. ITO have and to hold till death
do us part"
Two women to one man Of these fifty
thousand break this vow. The man prin-
cipally charges adultery. The woman
rests hers on cruelty. Desertion is the
common ground. Numberless reasons
are given by these unhappy people, and
they catch at a reason as a drowning
man grasps at a straw.
Temperamental incompatibility would
tell the story. Two hearts that are sup
posed to beat as one 'jangle like sweet
bells out Of tune"
There is no law on earth, there are
no words Of magistrate or minister.
priest or prelate, which can compel a
man to love his wife or to enjoy her
society
Neither is there legal force that can
make woman respect her husband or
find pleasure in his presence 1t is the
shame Of manhood that it Is possible to
become a bride.
In modern marriage all the primitive
traits Of the cave-men period appear,
Aeon upon aeon Of evolution, age upon
age Of cultivation, and even the soften
ing influence of Christianity have failed
TO eliminate the brute in the male, or
the feline in the female In a wild pas
sion OF anger modern man, like his cave
ancestor handles his spouse
The passions Of rage, jealousy. sus-
picion, temper and violence burst like
pillows over the rocks of civilization and
culture. and the man. clad in modern
raiment, is the brother to the uncouth
savage clothed in skins.

itely neat in her personal appearance.
She guards against the least untidi-
ness in dress. She can not be too
fastidious about her daily bath, the
care Of her hair. teeth and finger
nails. Each detail Of neatness is at
tended to scrupulously every day.
Neglect of these things is a fault not
to be Condoned
A habit to be cultivated is to be
carefully and neatly dressed and to
think no more about it after leaving
ones room. This will give freedom
from fussy self consciousness. For
instance, it is bad manners to go out
in the street before putting on ones
gloves, or to adjust a veil in a public
conveyance, or to give nervous pats
and touches to hair, or to give heed to
the many small details which should
be attended to in the privacy of ones
room and are not allowable else
where.

her. But his wicked little triumph was
nipped by her plucky candor

Jarvis was instantly contrite and
showed it in his own way

gently and with feeling "Why?'
"He is very powerful" was the low
answer, with the eyes averted now,

pressed it, was instantly sore" al that

"You mean--you might be forced to

glance at the door "Yes-if-if you

Even Rusty, in the trunk. heard his
master gasp above his own wheeling
and groaning.

a dazed sort of way. He ran his hand

with hearty emphasis. From what l
overheard there is something queer
about your castle. You forget-I am
completely in the dark. Oh, just a
minute, please forgot something"
He went over and released Rusty
from durance. The old servant was
dismissed, wondering what Marse War
rem and Mrs. Princess found amusing
in the situation.
GO to my stateroom and lock your
self in" Jarvis ordered impressively.

for these orders. We're out Of the

He shook his head Uneasily. You

on Rusty as a clew. But it won't lead
to anything as long as they can't con-
