CHAPTER XIX.
A Full Confession.

There were two more dances schsd.
uled on the program. The last OF
these had begun before the infantry
sergeant returned. and. apologizing
for his long absence, resumed his du-
ties at the door. Across the room,
Hamlin's eyes met those of Miss Nc
Donald. where she danced with an
unknown officer; then he turned and
elbowed his way to the street The
hotel opposite was all hustle and con-
fusion, the bar-room crowded with the
thirsty emergency walters who had
rushed about the hall completing final
preparations. The Sergeant, intent
on his purpose. and aware that the
band had ceased playing. lodged past
these and entered the parlor. II was
already occupied by four men. who
were playing cards at small. round
table and smoking vigorously, entire
ly engrossed in their game. None OF
them so much as glanced up. and the
intruder hesitated an instant, quickly
determining his course of action.
There was little choice left. The girl

Summer Hearts.

The sea was blue and sparkling.
The white sand glittered in the sun,
shine. A great wind, moist and cool
and redolent of salt, blew steadily.
Stirred, doubtless, by the same and
tonic beauty of the scene, all the
young people at Atlantic City seemed
to be sweethearts. Bathing. they
bathed hand-in-hand. Seated on the
sand, their shoulders touched. They
walked arm-in-arm upon the broad.

COCA COLA HAorr. A GHOST.
We have an bsard ~ .,os,. ~, =,

We have all heard of ghosts, but none
of US have ever seen one. It's the same
way with coca cola "fiends;p you can
hear about them b1t voc might search
for them until doom's day and you
would never find one. Physicians who
have treated hundreds OF thousands of
drug,habit cases, including opium, NOR
phine, cocaine, alcohol, etc, say that
they have never seen a case where the
use of Coca-Cola has so fastened itself
upon the individual as to constitute a
habit in the true sense of the word. AL
though millions of glasses of Coca Cola
are drunk every year, no Coca-Cola
fiends have ever made themselves Wis
ible at the doors of the sanitariums for
the treatment of drug habits.
The Coca-Cola habit Is analogous to
the beefsteak habit and to the straw
berry habit and the ice cream habit.
People drink Coca-Cola first because
they see it advertised and thereafter
because 1t tastes good and refreshes
their minds and bodies. They drink il
when they can get II and contentedly
do without It when they can't get II.
If you had ever witnessed the rawlings
OF a real drug flend when deprived of
his drug, II you had ever observed the
agony he suffers, you would never
again be so unfair as to mention Coca
Cola in the same breath with the
"habit-forming" drugs.-Adv.

Waists for the Traveller.

Crepe de chimes are popular and
practical as they clean easily. The
familiar double frill is still used. as
are also narrow frills which outline
the front pleats, or follow the side
fastening. They have the button
through collar and cuffs. with long
shoulder lines. Wash silks have
broad or narrow stripes in purple,
gray, blue, rose. yellow, or brown.
Then again any color may be found
with a white stripe. All these silks
are made in the mannish style. I'm
lined net and lace waists are also very
practical, as they are easily Numbered
and cool.

interesting book. whose popularity is

that the author of Mother Goose" is

Novelist Mlsauoted serIpture.

Novelists do not seem to be very
strong in their knowledge of the scrip
lures somehow, and Sir Walter Scott
in "The Heart OF Midlothian" at
tempts to point a moral with the
words: Our simple and unpretend-
ing heroine had the merit of those
peacemakers to whom 1t is promised
as benediction that they shall In
herit the earth" The fact Is that
the peacemakers did not receive any
such promise. but 1t is said that the
meek shall inherit the earth"

Real and Artificial Flowers.

At a social function given recently
all women wearing artificial flowers
on their hats had genuine blossom OF
similar kinds on their waists. For

white, had a white hat trimmed with
large purple pansies, and she wore the
little flowers at her corsage.

BOXING NOTES.

New Orleans promoters are trying
to match Willie Richie with Charley

eGunboat' Smith received $3.50 for
his recent bout with Jesse Willard in

Kid Williams of Baltimore in a IT,
round or 20-round bout, providing
Sam Harris. Williams manager, turns
over to him the $500 bonus that the
latter promised him and that IL the
bout is staged in Baltimore.
1t is almost a sure thing that Willie
Richie and Joe Rivers will not meet
on July A. Tom Mccarey of Los An
geles has Rivers signed for a bout at
his arena on that day, while Eddie
Graney Of San Francisco has secured
Nolans consent to have Richie APP
pear AT his club on Independence

match Rivers with Bud" Anderson
and that Graney will get Tommy Muir
