Mrs. Boissevain, Noted
Sufragist, Is Dead

Los Angeles. Cal, Nov. 81. = Mrs.
IneZ Milholland Boissevain, widely
known suffragist and welfare worker,
died in a hospital here shortly before
midnight Saturday after an illness of
ten weeks. She was thirty years old.
Mrs. Boissevain was stricken sud
denly while addressing an audience
here in the recent political campaign
and tainted on the platform at the
meeting. She was removed to a hos
pital, and her husband and parents
came from New York to join her. Miss
Vida Milholland, her sister, was with
her when she was stricken and has
been in constant attendance since that
time.
Mrs. Boissevain's illness was dag
nosed as apalastic anaemia, and blood
TRANSMISSION was resorted to in at
tempts to improve her condition Her
sister twice gave blood for this pur-
pose, and on four other occasions
friends submitted to the ordeal in the
hope that benefit would result. After
each TRANSMISSION temporary improve
ment was followed by relapse. A few
days ago the physicians in charge
stated that there was virtually no
hope, but thereafter Mrs. Boissevain
rallied and it was thought she might

CHAPTER LII.

CHAPTER LIII
Copyright 1916, Star Company
! AS Agnes Morley and her compan-
ion returned to the library the tele-
lphone rang, and cambridge went out
into the hall to answer 1t. Agnes Won
dered for an instant If the call could be
for her; then, from the scraps of con-
versation borne to her ears. she knew
that some friend was talking to her
host. She heard Bainbridge laugh
out merrily and say that perhaps he
would drop into the club soon after
midnight"
As she stood alone in the middle of
the room she glanced at her watch. II
was IL o'clock What was she. Agnes
Morley, doing here at this time of the
night with this man?
AS Is so often the case after an un-
natural stimulant, the girls mood
changed in a moment. All at once
she realized that she. this mans stem
lographer, had been sitting at his table,
eating and drinking with him!
To be sure he had said the punch
would not hurt a baby-but she had
always held that a girl should not
drink with a man. Aunt Lucy's no.
did not wonder what she would say II
she knew of her niece's behavior.
But what would Philip Hale say If he
knew of this?
CONSERVATION seized her. To come
here to work was one thing; to lin
ger until this hour was another.
Following a sudden impulse, she
ran into the ante-room, fastened on
her hat, thrust her arms into her
jacket sleeves, and was back in the
library by the time that Bainbridge
returned.
Hold on" he exclaimed. What's
your hurry? What are you going
away so soon for2"
It's very late" she told him. II
must go. Thank you for your kind
ness"
Wait" he urged. II want to dis
cuss that work. Will you undertake
lit?"
"Oh, yes" she said, remembering
as she had remembered a little while
ago that it would mean relief from
fear.
The Question of Money
You will want some money, SOON
he remarked = before you have a
chance to work for it..
"Oh, no." she demurred.
But you will. child" he insisted
You will have to pay for all that hos
pital business-and can let you have
some cash here and now"
And only few hours ago she had
been in an agony of apprehension.
She would not take the money, but
this mans thought OF her made her
grateful. Her WEAKNESS, her long
day of fasting, the punch she had
taken, all made her self-control weak.
Her lips trembled as she looked into
Balm, .ge's eyes.
How good you are" she eXclaim-
ed. Il can't accept your offer-but l
do appreciate it, and l know you are
my friend. Good night, and thank
you!'
She held out her hand, and he seiz-
ed 1t, pulling her to him and clasping
her in his arms. Before she could
free herself he had kissed her.

He released her and she reeled bach

You mean" she accused, that

Yes. I have-but I thought you were
gentleman. Now I see my mistake
| Let me go!'
A Revelation
And how are you going to get your
money!" he demanded, a crafty smile
coming to his face. Perhaps yor
think you can make 1t in some easier
way than from me-but you can't

gasped-"you thought I didn't know
about that, did you? Well, l do-and
, what's more. If you're too independent

too"
For the moment the girls fear wa.

! had never felt before.

voice, 'if l were man, I'd kill you!'
He laughed harshly.
That actress-stufr doesn't go dowr
with me-" he sneered. Remember,
can tell people that you accepted
money from me-much more than yor
earned; l can tell, too, of finding yor
alone in the dark with young Hale;
can tell of your being here at this
hour of the night, and arranging to
come again and again-and to take
money for coming.
Now do you intend to listen to the
offer I have to make to you or not
See here" adopting the tone of one
ready to reason matter out, Il am
willing to excuse what you said just
now. You were excited, and didn't
mean 1t, 1 know"
Again he tried to draw her to him
but, before he could suspect her inten-
ton. she struck him with her clenched
fist straight on the full, sensual mouth
She saw the blood squirt out as his
teeth went through his lip.

Then. as with an oath he staggered
back. she darted past him, down the
hall, out of the apartment and, with
out summoning the elevator, rar
noiselessly down the many flights OF
stairs, past the two doing door fun

A FINE TREATMENT
FOR CATARRH
EASY TO MAKE AND COSTS LITTLE

Catarrh is such an insidious disease
and has become so prevalent during the
past few years that it's treatment
should be understood by all
Science has fully proved that Catarrh
is a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment
Sprays, inhalers, salves and nose
doucheS seldom if ever give lasting
benefit and often drive the disea Sc
further down the air passages and into
the lungs.
If you have Catarrh or Catarrhal
deafness or head-noises, go to your
druggist and get one ounce of Parmint
Double strength). Take this home and
add to it Il pint hot water and 4
ounces of granulated sugar; stir until
dissolved. take one tablespoonful 4
times a day.
This will often bring quick relief
from the distressing head-noises, clog
ged nostrils should open, breathing be-
come easy and mucus stop dropping in
to the throat.
This treatment has a slight tonic ac-
tion which makes it especially effec-
tive in cases where the blood has be.
come thin and weak. IT is easy t,,
make, tastes pleasant and costs little.
Every person who wishes TO be free
from this destructive disease should
give this treatment a trial.-Advertise

Whether you copy this garment in hand

1t is comfortable and pleasant to wear, it
Is shapely and consequently it serves we'll

seam at the back does away with full

sion on the back edge that is buttoned
onto the front to form envelope drawers.
The lower edge can be made straight or it

The simple scalloped edges illustrated
are essentially dainty and attractive, but
