CHAPTER IX-Hc proposes 10 her. but
before she will give her answer she in
sists on telling him her story.
CHAPTER Killer uncle had died
leaving her his fortune. A cousin who
had been disinherited had plotted to place
her in an insane asylum so that he might
get control OF her money. She had Just
discovered the Mot and Ind escaped from
this cousin when she first met Durham.
She agrees to marry Durham at once.
CHAPTER XI-Left alone in her room
ct the hotel for a few moments after the
marriage, the cousin makes his appear
anCe and attempts 70 carry her Off. He
Is arrested and everything ends happily.

as the matron disappeared, you "a

NO." she answered, looking up half
frightened; but ! am afraid / ought
not to let you do this. You scarcely
know me-"
Now, dear. no more Of that. We
have no time to lose. How long will It
take you to get dressed? VIII half
an hour do? 1t is getting late"
ooh, it will not take long" She
caught her breath with gladness. Her
companions voice was so strong and
comforting, his face so filled with a
wonderful love, that she felt dazed
with the sudden Joy of it all.
The elevator boy appeared In the
doorway with the familiar suitcase.
Don't be afraid, dear heart" whis-
pered the young man, as he attended
her to the elevator. "Pll soon be back
again, and then, then, we shall be to-
gether!"
1t was a large front room to which
the boy took her. The ten-dollar bill
had proven effective. 1t was not a
'lfty-cents-a-night" room. Some one
some guest or kindly patron-had
put a small Illuminated text upon the
wall in a neat frame. II met her eye
as she entered-"Reioice and be glad
Just a common little picture card, 1t
was, with a phrase that has become
trite to many, yet it seemed a message
to her, and her heart leaped to obey
She went to the window to catch a
glimpse of the man who would soon
be her husband. but he was not there,
and the hurrying people reminded her
that she must hasten. Across the
street a slouching figure In q baggy
coat looked fixedly up and caught her
glance. She trembled and drew back
out of the sunshine, remembering
what Durham had told her about the
freshman of the night before. With
a quick instinct, she drew down the
shade, and locked her door.

STEPS sINNEWDANcEs- THE DOUBLE CORTEs"

to tangible evidence of lack of taste.
The French tango is thus describ-
ed by Louis H. Chaliff, New York
vice president of the American So
ciety of Dancing Masters: Properly
danced, the tango. consists of four
steps. The first is a march step. This
is followed by the eortes and double
cortes. COrtes is Spanish and means
literally cut In dancing it denotes
a short step. The third step in the
tango is ell medic luna, the half-moon,
to perform which the dancers move
in a semi-circle. The fourth and
last step is el passiO."
The day book., 1914-09-25

Dance steps have been standard
lied. The American Society of Dane
ing Masters have done it. All teas
ing, tampering with or tantalizing the
tango must stop. The dance floor
must no longer present the appear
Rnce of an unTestrained riot, with all
its occupants whirling aimlessly in
divergent directions, tripping and col
hding at every move.
The standard tango is the French
tango, with the true French tang.
Any tangent from this prescribed
form will be considered tantamOunt

A tough piece of meat or an anti
quated fowl can be cooked as tender
as the choicest cut if put on the
stove is one of these new enameled
steamers. This cooking kettle has
much to recommend it, for it is so
constructed that absolutely no steam
can escape and the meat is stewed or
steamed in its own juices. The trick,
is in the formation Of the ring at
the top of the kettle into which the
cover fits making an air-tight vessel.
In this way all the juice and all the
flavor of the meat is retained. If
cooked slowly the cheaper cuts will
be very savory and tender when they
are ready to serve.

REMARKABLE PROSPERITY.

The United States census bureau
recently issued a noteworthy bulletin
concerning the state of Maine. Ii re
views the 30 years preceding 1912, and
declares that Maine has passed all the
states in steady advancement of finan-
cial independence While in 1880
Names per capita debt was $S.49, as
contrasted with an average for all
states of $5.4S. the Maine debt in 1912
had been reduced rs per cent and the
average of the other At states only SO
per cent. Now Maine owes $1.67 per
capita, and the other states, on the
average, 1892. Bank deposits and in
vestments have increased wonderfully.
Maine has about $10000O,000 in the
way of deposits, with $4,000 savings
bank depositors.

keep up appearances. His brother
who had joined forces with him,
helped him out with money and serv-
ices, but even with his aid it was
the highest kind of squeeze to get
through without a visit from the
sheriff
1t had been proved so conclusively
that the public would have nothing
to do with Beach Park that no one
supposed Humphrey would be so fool
ish, after that experience of the third
season, as to waste more of his time
and hard-earned money on it. But
the popcorn man was obstinate and
he opened up the fourth year as
blithely as ever. 1t was the old story
until about the middle of the season.
Then there was a slight improve
ment. Somebody Of consequence and
influence told somebody else that the
place was changed so much he hardly
could recognize it He was so glow
ing in his picturing of the charm of
the park that the other man was
tempted to go there He was sur
prised and delighted, and felt it was
his duty to tell everybody about it.
Both Decent and Paying.
Before that fourth season closed
Beach Park was paying expenses. 1t
opened next year with an excellent
business, and in a month or two it
was having a patronage such as it
never had known before 1t was ex-
actly the place for a respectfully man
and his family. There were no toughs.
There were no bars. Everything was
moderate in price, yet good. There
were no shooting galleries, no fortune
tellers, no freaks or fakes or loop the
loop or thrillers in the way of roller
coasters with sensational dips that &C.
casionally brought disaster. But there
was everything that was legitimate
and safe and decent. The dancing
pavilion was a delight. There was
a dancing master there to instruct
the awkward or the young or to
check any tendency to improperly.
The music was of the best for dane
ing purposes. Comparatively few per-
sons realize what big difference
the music makes in the enjoyment of
dancing.
Instead of the sideshows and fakes,
Humphrey had charming pavilions,
shady hooks, rustic paths, grassy
lawns and grottos. There we're roller
coasters and miniature railroads anG

WHAT MAKES cHAMPIoMs.

WHAT MAKES CHAMPIONS.
Connie Mack, whose Athletics have
won five American league pennants
and three worlds championships. is
quoted by magazine writer as saying
that alcohol inevitably slows a man
down." And slowing down, he con-
tfnues, is the reason for the shelving
of by far the majority of baseball
players. Who puts the player out of
the game?" he goes on. You should
naturally say the umpire; well, all the
umpires together haven't put as many
ball players out of the game as Old
Man Booze" He explains further,
that it is not only excessive drinking
that does harm, but that even the mod
crate use of alcohol won't do for the
professional player. 1t will take off
from three to five years of his baseball
life. The Athletics have no rules con-
corning their personal habits, but out
of 20 players in the 1918 worlds con-
test Is had never taken drink in
their lives, When they were playing
the Chicago Cubs, Mack said to them:
1T would be bad enough to lose the
championship without having a bundle
of regrets to poster you. It's hard
enough to lose to better club, but to
beat yourselves-say, that's the way
to throw away game after you have
won it.
Clean living and quick thinking,
that's the stuff champions are made
Of" says Mack

MUSTN'T CASH PAY CHECKS.

A deputation from the Ministerial
association of Los Angeles recently
went before the public safety COM
mittee with a request that saloons be
forbidden to cash pay checks. A gem
eral public discussion followed, GER
tain employers promising to pay in
cash, and certain banks and stores Of
fering to keep open to cash checks.
AS result the police commission is
sued an order prohibiting check-cash-
ing by saloons. On the following
Monday the chief of police reported
at follows
I'VE usually have from so to 80 ar
rests for drunkenness on Saturdays
and Sundays, but for the last two
days we have had but AZ for each
day which l attribute directly to the
enforcement of the order forbidding
saloons to cash pay checks"
Among other results must be count
ed the increased efficiency of 40 work
ers, happy Sunday for 40 families,
money spent with the legitimate
trades, and the saving of court and
jail expense of caring for 40 DRINKS.

lights in his grounds, he directed the
rays of the searchlights upon the sa
looms. Nobody could enter without
being truly in the spot light. Decent
men didn't like to make exhibitions
of themselves, so they lodged those
saloons. The liquor men threatened
lots of things to Humphrey, but went
no further than to sue out an injunc'
ton restraining him from using his
battleship searchlights. That was pie
for the popcorn man. The papers
made big stories out of the fight
Humphrey got more advertising than
he could have bought for thousands
of dollars. And the injunction was
set aside. Thereupon the search
lights came into play again. The
crowd at Beach Park thought it high
ly enjoyable to see an occasional per-
son try to get into a saloon without
being spotted. People went out just
to see this show.
Every Visitor Gets Value.
The searchlights drove the saloons
out of business and Beach Park
never has seen one since. 1t has in
creased in popularity year by year,
and today is a remarkable monument
to the worth of honesty and decency
in an amusement park. Every pala.
table soft" drink is sold there, but
nothing with a suspicion of dope.
There is no ballyhooing, no deceit, no
loudness. Every visitor gets value.
The whole establishment--and it COW
ers many acres-is conducted ration
ally, efficiently and yet most profit
ably.
There has been so much profit in
Beach Park as he conducts it that the
popcorn man has had to pok about
to employ his money. Liking the
amusement field and believing he was
doing a good service in providing for
those who want to take their pleas
ures in decent, respectable way, he
built a great winter carnival right In
the heart of a city. There he mas
hockey tournaments, ice skating and
other sports. The ice-making plant
is so tremendous that this rink is said
to be the biggest in the world It IS
a pronounced success. The games
and tournaments nave come to be fea.
lures of the winter life of the city,
and the popcorn man is now declared
to be the most prosperous amusement
purveyor in America. srs. r..

INSURANCE COMPANIES KNOCK.

The general manager of one of the
big life insurance companies of this
country, in letter to one of his agents
declining to write policy for a sa-
loonkeeper had this to say:
I'VE do not want the name of be-
ing saloonkeepers company, and of
taking grade of risks which are
promptly refused by the leading and
conservatively managed companies of
the country.
Life insurance companies are en-
gaged-all of them-in encouraging
thrift, protecting homes, and in
serving the welfare of the individual,
the community and the state. Sa-
loonkeepers-al of them-are en-
gagged in discouraing thrift, destroying
homes and in injuring the individual,
the community and the state. There
is nothing in common between US,
and we do not even care for business
relations with them"
