OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
THEIR MARRIED LIFE"

We'll" said Helen, sitting a little
sigh, 81 suppose if 1 ever mentioned
such a thing Warren would think me
hopelessly extravagant."
Yes, suppose he would said
Louise. well. at least Bob didn't
present me with moleskin coat"
Helen smiled family. And at that
moment Warren and Bob came over
to them.
Did you have my skates sharp
ened?' queried Warren.

said Helen, flushing a little.

ut might do that hall closet a lot
of good if you cleaned 1t out some
day soon." said Warren, in his super
Tor manner.
II know it needs it." said Helen,
laughing in spite of herself. Il al
ways intend to clean it out and then
something is sure to happen to pre-
vent It,"
Warren said nothing more. and
tn were soon skating leisurely over
the ice. Helen coud not help think
ing of last year when she had first
tried to skate. OF course, she had
fallen around and had made a perfect
idiot of herself. and every one had
laughed. 1t had not been a pleasant
experience for one so sensitive as
Helen and she had not forgotten it for
long time afterward. She had kept
right at it, however. and had learned
to skate rather well-that is, she did
good, solid skating without any flour
ishes-and she was glad now that
skating had become so popular.
This rink is really no good any
more" said Warren disgustedly.
There are too many amateurs al
ways ready to trip you up. There
goes one now" he said. as a couple
ahead of them fell heavily. They
ought to learn out in the open coun-
try somewhere; it would be better for
all hands around"
Suppose they can't find another
place. said the more lenient Helen.
Remember, we learned in this very
rink"
Warren Approves
You did" said Warren. l have

sible fad New York has introduced

"Oh. look" said Helen eagerly,
turning half around Aren't those
people the skaters at the Tip Top?
Everybodys watching them; I'm
sure they are!"
Warren turned to see better. and
as he did a girl who was learning

in little heap right in Warrens
way. He tried to save himself, but
he was too late, and, tripping over
the girl, he fell headlong. Not
great many people saw the fall. but
Warren was furious. He picked
himself up slowly and sksted over
to the edge of the rink, followed by
Helen. Bob and Louise We're on the
other side and had not noticed.
THAT was a shame. dear" said
Helen, coming up TO him.
1T was all your fault" said War
rem, turning to her suddenly. For
one thing, the skates are too dull
for any decent curves. I told you to
have them sharpened. And then your
eXclaiming that way at a couple of
professionals was enough to make any
one fall"
Helen knew that Warren had
stumbled through his own careless
ness, but she said nothing. Silence
was better than an argument of any
kind, particularly in a public place.

"The 25-cent allowance was fixed by

board was ordered forthwith to COM
pletely and thoroughly "clean up"
within thirty days.
The tale of the trousers was ex-
planned at length by Mr.. Loudermilch;
it's the story of how the old poor
board placed its stamp on the unfor-
tunates under its charge.
Dozens of pairs of khaki trousers
had been purchased. evidently in job
lots. according to Mr.. Loudermilch.
These were mostly all of one size-a
shrinkable size at that, which, under
ordinary circumstances. might mean
fairly comfortable fit for small
boy. They were distributed among the
men. And the lucl<less man who in
sisted on not squeezing into the pants
faced the only alternative.
The Brand of the Poor
The size and character of the

directors found fault, however: the
way the wearer was thus practically
stamped as pauper particularly
aroused the ire of the poor directors.

Baltimore, July 12.-American navy

German submarine Deutschland went
aboard the craft Tuesday. Capt Koe-

was not there to receive them but they
were shown through the vessel by the

The officers, Capt. c. +. Hughes and

Herbert S. Howard. accompanied by
the collector of the port, boarded the
Deutschland at her pier from a tug.
Officially they were to determine
whether the submarine was an armed
vessel but they were given permis-

the American navy officers had been
given the privilege OF learning all the
secrets, ii any, of the vessels con

this respect to conceal.

completing their inspection to return

Petrograd July 1.-THE Russian
drive against the German line on both
sides Of the Kovel-Sarny Railroad had
the desired effect OF stopping the Ger
man offensive against Lutsk from the
directions of Koyel and Vladimir-Volyn
ski, enabled the Russians to take the
offensive and to drive the enemy
across the Stokhod to the northwest
and westward toward Vladimir-Voly-
nsk!.
Svidnild and Mosor, where fierce
battle is in progress, as mentioned III
the official communication, are on the
west bank of the Stokhod, on either
side of the RovnoKovel Railroad.
Further to the left of this widening
circle of the battle line beyond Lutsk.
the Russians are launching sledge-
hammer blows in the vicinity of kise-
lin and Zubilno, before Vladimir-Voly-

The unexpected Russian advance
north of the Kovel-Sarny Railway car
ried the Russian line to the Stokhod
river, which has been crossed at sew
eral points in spite OF the best defense
the Germans were able to offer.
At the present writing, according to
the military critics, there now remain
no more natural barriers between the
Russian lines and Koyel in the shape
of rivers and swamps. 1t is predicted
that early news may be expected Of
assaults upon the recently constructed
| German fortitications before Kovel.
The approximate total Of prisoners
taken by the Russians during General

amounts to $500 officers and $4,000
