''Then in my opinion the best thing
would be to introduce young Bertram
to Millie," said Mrs. Plunkett. Shed

knew young men,"
Mother-in-laww exclaimed John
in mock horror.
But it was true Mile Gray was
the sweetest girl in the world and it
did seem a shame that she and her
mother and the few folks of the old
set should be unable to meet those
of the new.
And there had been scheming and
planning in order that the Stevens
might live their double life without
suspicion. John was heartily sick of
it all.

Lydia looked round their expensive
apartment, and the memories came
flocking fast. She thought of their
struggle in New York ten years be-
fore, of how they had resolved to
succeed, of her husbands position,

Trust me?'
And with the decision a vast relief
came to both of them that they were
to sail under true colOrs at last.
Milie and her mother were the
first to arrive. The girl had never
looked so sweet, John thought. AS
for Lydia, she was sure that young
Bertram Lentfeld would soon forget
his present ENHANCEMENT in her pres
ence. Mrs. PlUnkett, dressed like a
dowager in stiff black silk, lent an
air of refined old age to the assem-
bIage. John, who watched his
guests every action almost as keen
" as his wife, saw that the Lent
fields looked about them apprOVingly.
And, with relic of her past fears,
Lydia had contrived to seat the
O'Regans where they could do no
real harm.
1t was obvious from the first that
young Bertram, who had taken Millie
in to dinner, was engrOssed with her.
Everyone, in fact, noticed the mutual
interest in the. young couple. Mrs.
Lentfeld, in the drawing room, open
ed her heart to her hostess.

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.
CarbuncIes.

Very often carbuncle makes
serious trouble and in the case
of the old and debilitated may
cause death. The disease is cauS-
ed by the introduction of pyo-
genie germs into the hair folli-
cles of the skin, and this sug-
gests that scrupulous cleanliness
. is the best preventive. But I'M
: fortunately this does not always
prove effective. Carbuncles seem
to select their victims among
those who are particular in mat
tiers of cleanliness quite as often
as among those who are more
careless. These victims are like
~ to be afflicted with some debili-
tating disease, which compli-
Gates matters and increases the
: danger
There should be no dallying
. home treatment of a carbun-
. Gle. 1t is a condition demanding
. skilled medical attention and
. may even require active surgery.
. So the sooner it is taken in hand
the sooner it's victim will be rid
. of his painful tormentor.
