VOGUE of White Paint.

A clever decorator who remodeled
the dining room in a New England
farm house has even gone so far in
her use of white paint as to finish the
floors with it. The woodwork and
furniture were also white, but plenty
of color was introduced by bright
chintz-patterned paper and plain
bright green rugs. The white dining
room table was always bare, which
allowed the mistress to use many at
tractively colored dolly sets. Her
china showed up to splendid advan-
tage on this white ground, and the
flowers from the garden seemed un'
usually bright and pretty in the midst
of all this white. A country house
near Cleveland has all its floors paint
ed white, with bright green, blue and
purple rugs used to carry out certain
color schemes. OF course, using white
on floors is practical only when you
are far from the city's smoke or mo-
tors dust.-The Countryside Maga'
zine.

Rockefeller Wins Tax Suit.

Cleveland. John d. Rockefeller
was upheld by Federal Judge
Clarke in his efforts to resist collec-
tion of taxes in Cuyahoga county on
$311 100000 worth Of personal prop
erty. Clarke granted an injunction
sought by Rockefeller, restraining
county officials from requiring the oil
king to pay over the tax money.
The big Rockefeller tax was as
sessed by Fackler and Agnew in Feb
ruary, 1914, after the takers swooped
down on the Forest Hill home of the
oil king. They served Rockefeller
with tax papers, alleging he had re-
manned in the county more than six
months of the tax year and, therefore,
was resident of Ohio for tax pur.
poses.
The county's only hope now of col
Iecting taxes on Rockefeller's enor-
nous holdings of stocks, bonds and
moneys rests in an appeal to United
States circuit court. If the injunction
is sustained there, final appeal may
be taken to United States supreme
court, it is stated. Prosecutor Locker
said the appeal will be taken up at
once.

how ineffably happy, how peaceful life

There would be no more lonely days;

himself. A wonderful, compelling ten

HOLD THREE As GIRL
EXPIRES IN HOSPITAL
Authorities Arrest OhiOans in Connection
With Death Of Young Woman, Illegal
Operation Being Charged.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Young stown. - A prominent phy'
sician and his wife OF Niles, o.
and another physician prominent in
Youngstown are held in county jail
here in connection, with the death OF
Mrs. Fannie Joyce, 2S, who died here
in st. Elizabeth's hospital as result
Of an illegal operation. Police are
searching for a Columbus man of great
wealth, said to be the Ohio represent
ative of New York concern.
The physicians held are DR.. H. c.
Paden of Niles, o., and Mrs. Paden
and DR.. F. P. Fitzpatrick of Youngs-
town. They were arrested immedia-
ately after Coroner E. H. Jones OF
Youngstown, on request of Mrs.
Joyce's family, had announced the re-
suit of an autopsy. DR.. Jones declared
Mrs. Joyce died as the result of an
illegal operation.
Mrs. Joyce was formerly Miss
Fannie Boucherle and was prominent
here socially. Mrs. Joyce separated
from her husband some time ago.
According to the theory on which
authorities are working, the operation
was performed at Niles, o., at the
home of DR.. Paden. Mrs. Joyce left
Youngstown May and motored to
Niles. She was accompanied on the
trip, it is said, by Dr. Paden, the man
for whom police are searching, Dr..
Fitzpatrick and woman friend, the
wife of Youngstown manufacturer.
Mrs. Joyce remained at the Paden
home until May 5, authorities say,
when Dr. ]. w. Shaffer of Youngstown
was called into consultation because
her condition took a sudden turn for
the worse. On that day Mrs. Joyce was
removed to ST. Elizabeth's hospital
here and died the next morning.
The situation became known when
DR.. Shaffer refused to sign death
certificate giving typhoid fever as the
| cause of death. DR.. Paden, however,
signed the certificate, but the family
| of the dead woman refused to accept
this and asked a post-mortem.
When she was removed to st. Eliza
beths hospital, Mrs. Joyce, despite her
| grave condition, used every means
possible to shield from institution
officials her true identity. On her
deathbed she stoutly held out she was
the wife of the man for whom police
are searching. Soon after Mrs. Joyce
died, however, hospital officials, by an
accident, learned her maiden name
and ater her married name. Blood
poisoning that set in soon after the
operation alleged to have been per
formed on Mrs. Joyce is said to have
resulted in the necessity of her re-
moval to St. Elizabeth's hospital.

soon as the curtain went up on the
next act. which was to be the last. In
stead OF doing so. however, he lin
gered to the end Of the play, secure In
his conscienceless espionage. II had
come to him that II he met them In
front of the theater as they came out
he could invite them to join him at
supper in one of the nearby restau-
rants. The idea pleased him. He
coddled II until it became a sensation.
When James Brood and his wife
reached the sidewalk they found him
there, directly in their path, as they
wedged their way to the curb to await
the automobile. he was smiling
frankly. wistfully. There was an hon.
est gladness in his fine, boyish face
and an eager light in his eyes. He no
longer had the sense of guilt in his
soul II had been a passing qualm,
and he felt regenerated for having ex-
perienced it, even so briefly. Some
how it had purged his soul of the one
lingering doubt as to the sincerity Of
his impulses.
"Hello!" he said. planting himself
squarely in front of them.
There was a momentary tableau. He
was vividly aware of the fact that
Yvonne had shrunk back in alarm, and
that a swift look of fear leaped into
her surprised eyes. She drew closer
to Broods side-or was it the jostling
of the crowd that made it seem to be
so? He realized then that she had not
seen him in the theater Her surprise
was genuine 1t was not much short
of CONSERVATION, a fact that he re-
allied with a sudden sinking of the
heart
Then his eyes went quickly to his
fathers face. James Brood was re-
garding him with a cold, significant
smile, as one who understands and
despises.
"They told me you were here" fall
tered Frederic, the words rushing hur-
riedly through his lips, "and l thought
we might run in somewhere and have
bite to eat. IL want to tell you
about Lydia and myself and what"
The carriage man bawled a number
in his ear and jerked open the door
of limousine that had just pulled up
the the curb.
Without a word, James Brood hand
ed his wife into the car and then
turned to the chauffeur.
Home" he said, and, without so
much as a glance at Frederic, stepped
inside. The door was slammed and
the car slid out into the maelstrom.
Yvonne had sunk back into corner,
huddled down as if suddenly deprived
of all her strength. Frederic saw her
face as the car moved away. She was
staring at him with wide-open, re-
proachful eyes, as if to say: "Oh, what
have you done? What fool you are!"
For a second or two he stood as If
petrified. Then everything went red

ately. II did not count all the cost

honest heart-the heart that | have
hurt. can tell by it's throbs whether
it will ever soften toward me. Do not
say anything now-let us be still"
1t would be difficult to describe the
feelings of Lydia Desmond as she sat
there with the despised though to be
adored head pillowed upon her breast,
| where it now rested in sort of conf
dent repose, as if there was safety in
the very strength of the young girls
disapproval. Yvonne had twisted her
1.-THE body on the chaise Tongue so that
she half-faced Lydia. Her free arm,
from which the loose sleeve had
fallen, leaving it bare to the shoulder,
was about the girls neck.
For a long time Lydia stared
straight before her, seeing nothing,
positively dumb with wonder and &C.
knowledging a sense of dismay over
her own disposition to submit to this
extraordinary situation. She was ask.
ing herself why she did not cast the
woman away, why she lacked the
power to resent by deed as we'll as by
thought Life-marvelous, adorable
| life rested there on her breast. This
woman had hurt her-had hurt her
wantonly-and yet there came steal
| ing over her, subtly, the conviction
that she could never hurt her in re-
turn. She could never bring herself
to the point of hurting this wondrous,
living, breathing, throbbing creature
who pleaded, not only with her lips
and eyes, but with the gentle heart
beats that rose and fell in her throat.
After a long time, in which there
was conflict, she suddenly pressed her
warm lips to Yvonne's. Then in an
abrupt revulsion Of feeling her arms
fell away from the warm, sweet body
and almost roughly she pushed Yvonne
away from her.
II didn't mean to do that!" she
gasped.
The other smiled, but 1t was sad,
plaintive effort on her part. Il knew
that you would" she repeated.
Lydia sprang to her feet, her face
suddenly flaming with embarrassment.

to cover her confusion, but Yvonne in
terrupted.

pause: You will let me know what

"To-say about it?"

Lydia felt little shiver race over
her as she looked toward the door.

saw the drawn, panied look about the
dark eyes and was startled.
