EPISODE NO I.

The thud of their blows; the sob- | bing of deep drawn preaths; the sharp exclamation that told of blow driven home-all these were like the hideous echo in some blurred night mare to Mary. But the paralysis that bound her snapped like an over-taut wire when she saw Pollock's hand slipping back to his hip pocket Now she matched savagery with savagery. When. in answer to her cry of warn ing, Langdon struck up the treach- erous hand and sent the revolver spinning forward and snatched it out of reach of the groping fingers of the fighters.
 Pollock's bloodshot eyes searched the room for a weapon and fell at last upon the slender little sword which was a part of Mary's costume. A prop" but a dangerous one. and inch by inch he fought, not to beat back Langdon but to reach the cor ner where the sword stood.
 Feeling him giving way, Langdon pushed hotly forward, raining blows like a fail until, with cry of tri- umph, Pollock twisted away from him and caught up the glittering, sharp pointed weapon. But 1t was not Langdon whom he faced as he swung back; it was Mary, with a stern white face and vivid lips with his own re- volver in her hand
 "Go!' she breathed. So f1ercelv. so contemptuously she uttered the single word, that without a sound he dropped the napier and slunk out like a beaten hound.
 Still holding the revolver, Mary stood listening till the sound of his footsteps died away. then, turning with shiver of repugnance, laid the revolver down among the dainty sil- yer of her dressing ble. It struck an lncongruous note, but it was not that that made her eyes widen and her lips suddenly trem mble--it was the reflection of her own face and one white shoulder from which the faces had been torn away.
 Shivering with dread she lifted her hand and made as if to touch the snowy flesh, then with a cry flung her arm across her eyes to shut out what she saw.
 "Philip-Philip-I thought it was there!" she walled. "Oh, tell me it's not-tell me it's not and flinging

you get off your things. Then tell me Wrat l can get for your head" He picked me up as if I were a enid and carrying me into the living room, deposited me in the big arm chair, which he wheeled in front of the gas grate. Then he lighted the gas, and coming back of my chair tried to take off my hat His un- accustomed fingers could not find the rlns, however, and I put up my own hands and loosened the hat. He took it and placed 1t on the table, then sat down on the low stool at my feet. NOW for the shoes,' he said be- Gn,nng to unbutton my boots "All Right, DiclSy.'' It seemed so cosey and comforta ble to be sitting his way With Dicky q de- voted lover once more instead of a move or speak.
 But I knew that I must tell Diclxy what had happeped since we parted. 'Dicky,' I put my hand on his arm 'I don't want to go to bed yet I'll take off my things and get into my llimono and slippers, but there are G,Hme things I must tell you about to- day before I can rest"
 My husband looked up startled A. shadow crossed his face I knew that the jealousy, which I had discovered always lay close to the surface with Dicky, was rising. How I dreaded this interview. It did not seem to me that my aching head and my throb- hlng nerves could go through with it,
 But the shadow did not finger. He leaned nearer to me, and took my hands in his.
 Your hands are like ice," he said, while your face looks as if it were burning. Yau are not going to tell me anything now, my sweetheart"
 He loosened my shoes, took them off, and raised me to my feet.
 NOW for these mysterious fasten- ings,' he said, unbuckling the big or hament which fastened my cloak.
 But Dicky," I faltered, "I must tell"
 Tomorrow" he said, firmly, "or even tonight, if you wake up all right, but not now. Pm going to insist this time that you obey me, even if you wouldn't have it in the marriage cerem ony. Now if you don't want me to tear that pretty gown getting it off with my awkward hands you'd better undress and get into bed right away"
 All right, Dicky," I said meekly. As l crept into bed after having as- sured Dicky that there was nothing to do for my head but to let me sleep. L felt like a prisoner who has had an unexpected reprieVe from execution.

"1t does seem queer to me that mother should be so~ disappointed about that dinner" young married woman said to me the other day.
 How so?" I asked.
 Well a woman of her age, why should she care so much about a thing like a dinner? Of course, I'm sorry she's got the cold and cant go, but it does seem queer to me that she should care so much about a dinner when she can't eat half the things they'll serve and most of the guests will be young people, and they'll dance afterwards, and of course she doesn't dance"
 "How did. she happen to be in" cluded?" l questioned. The dinner in question was a dinner dance of young married people at an Auto mobile Inn.
 She Looked WistfuI When They Went
 or On Toots.
 Well, to tell the truth, I never should have thought of it, but Harry Cher husband) said mother always looked Wistful when we went off on toots like that. and left her to take care of the children, and he'd like to see her go this once. l should think she'd be delighted to stay with the children-you know she's crazy about them-and she has plenty of nice times with people of her own age. I cant understand it, though of course" (perfunctorily) I'm sorry to see her disa ppointed.
 Of course she cant understand. ~ ho woman if she could.
 Youth seldom can see why old age isn't always content to fgurativcly ''sit by the fire and spin"
 Nevertheless, strange as it is that the older folks now and then feel q wistful yearning for d real exciting, young folks good time. like many strange things, it is true.

debut. and that it comes up to the expectation of the critical world can be gleaned by the glowing praises re- ceived from the New York and Chi cago press "Weber and Fields bring to the screen their funny manner isms which have made them the world $ greatest com edianS. Their antics before the camera provoke the greatest of laughter and the audience is kept in continual roar during the two thousand feet of finn" Here we have two of the greatest come- dians the world ever knew posing for the camera and Fox patrons who have never seen them will have the op- portunity of seeing for themselves the reason for their immense popularity on the speaking stage.
 In conjunction with "The Best of Enemies' there will be a Griffith production of extraordinary worth that of Bessie Barriscale, in '"The Golden Claw" a compelling and ir- teresting drama that thrills with it's quick moving action and daring theme. Several single reels of care full selection frame the balance of the splendid offering for today and tomorrow.

Why DiCl<y Said "Tonorrow.


 We had barely reached our apart ment after departing from Lillian Gales on account of my headache when knock sounded on the kitchen door.
 "Oh, Dicky, do you suppose that is Katie?" I said eXcitedly.
 "1'n sec" returned Dicky. Don't worry, dear. I'll not say anything to her tonight while your head aches so badly. Tomorrow we'll question her, and get at the root of the matter
 T can't believe she meant to steal my lavallierc," I said, putting up a protecting hand to the ornament as 1t lay against my throat Mrs. Under wood says that, monkey-llke, Kate was probably secretly admiring 1t, perhaps even trying it on, and was in terruptcd. That would account for the way it was damned back into the box"
 Dicky laughed in an irritating, su- ncrior sort of way
 "LiI wouldn't convict yellow dog upon the evidence of twenty Wit r:csses' he said. That's one of her weaknesses. I don't know who does commit the crimes, according to her
  dcrer yet that she believes to be guilty. Nay, nay, my dear, you'll have 10 icring a better judge than Lil for katie.''
 The Knock Sounded Again
 "Open the door anyway SUE gcstcd, following Dicky into the Kit chen.
 But it was the janitor, tall'ii"ii' who stood in the doorway.
 Word From Katie.
 "Ah. good afternoon, ma am, ne said, taking off his cap.
 "t;ood afternoon, MT. Callaha returned. while Dicky looked mildly amused
 "I just thought I'd step up and tell vou ma.am." he began, that the younp woman came and wanted to get in
 "katie." I calculated.
 'T don't know what her name is" returned Callahan, "but she said she was your maid.
 "She made quite fuss, ma'am, when I told her you said she didn't heed to come back tonight She said you didn't understand she had some work to do. and she must get back into the apartment. She was quite angry, ma am, and at last threatened to report me to you. "I don't think that need to trouble ycu Callahan" said Dic1y smiling. Thank you very much for coming up, 1ave a drink on me- DiclIy put a ,uarter into the janitors hand Thank you. sir. I don't drink but thank you just the same.'
 Dicky stood looking quizzically after tho ianitor as he walked slowly away Hell probably put it out at com pound interest" he said at last, clos 1 ing the door. "Now." coming toward mo master l fully. "you're going to bed. I'll help

Household Notes

When starching colored clothes the starch should he very blue, rather thin and very free from Jumps.
 Never leave the furnace ashes un- covered after sitting. Sprinkle with water and leave tightly covered.
 Never expose an opal to heat. or it will crack Clean 1t with cold water softened with a tiny pinch of soda.
 When boiling vegetables, never let them stop boiling until they are done, or they will be soggy and heavy
 It saves time and energy to dry dishes in a wire dish drainer set close to the dish pan on the kitchen table.
 In making buttonholes in stuff that raVels easily, mark the buttonhole ard stitch around it before cutting.
 If d child seems very much ex- hausted do not allow it to eat heavy meal, because the food will not digest properly.
 No good housekeeper allows one ounce of fat to be thrown away. If it cannot be used in cooking, put it il the soap fat can.
