8oIo WIN Basting Line and added
Seam AAOsuGnce) Shirred Pillow, One
Size.

This shirred cushion is one of the pret-
tiest that can be offered. 1t can be made
from variety of materials and it can be
adapted to head rest and to foot rest
with equal success. 1t is very simple and
easy to make too and consequently it is
sure to be in demand. There is a plain
circular section at the center of the top
and a plain circular section at the center
Of the bottom and to these circular sec
tions. the straight shirred portion is
attached. The pillow is slipped through
an opening left in the shirred portion and
this opening is closed invisibfy after the
pillow is in place. Here, the center por-
tion is made of fancy material and the
shirred portion is of plain silk but while
plain silk is apt to be the best for the
shirred portion the center portion may be
treated in a variety of ways. For the
dainty head rest lace centers would be
pretty, or silk embroidered with some pretty
design, or piece of rich brocaded or fig
ured silk. For the foot rest one could
make the center portions of the plain
satin or cloth with soutache or heavy
embroidery.
To make the cushion will be required
yards of material II inches wide, IN
yards SO or "a yards AZ.
The pattern SoIo is cut in one size
for box cushion 20 inches in diameter.
1t will be mailed to any address by the
Fashion Department of this paper, on
receipt of ten cents.

Warnings Said to Have
Been Posted at Du Points S

Wilmington, Del, Jan. 80. - The
most rigid investigation that ever fol-
lowed a fire in any DUPONT powder
mill is now admitted to be under way
to determine, if possible, the cause of
the five fires at the Carney's Point, n
j., plant last Friday night, resulting
in three deaths and a 100000 loss.
One of the most significant facts
connected with the Friday night fires,
and 1t may also explain the deeper
probe that is now being pussed with
every facility at the hands of the Du-
Pone secret police organization, is
that they occurred on the very day
said to have been set as the time limit

CHAPTER XLIV.

Copyright, 1916, by Star Company
When Augustus Reeves had once
issued an order, or expressed an opin-
ion, he never changed his mind. That
is a popularity of small souls.
SO it did not occur to him to re-
tract his verdict of last night. Nor
did he trouble himself to wonder
how his wife was going to gather
courage to insult a caller at her
home. The light qualms of regret
that had threatened to visit him last
night after his scene with Jane had
left him entirely this morning.
He had slept WELL and when he
looked back at the occurrences of
last evening he congratulated him
self that he had acted wisely. Jane
was his wife. She must do as he
bade her. lie had given all in this
marriage; she had given nothing but
herself.
penniless girl in a luxurious home,
had provided for her future, and in
return he had a right to expect per-
feet submission to his will.
He was glad that this submis-
sion was unaccompanied by any
exhibition of temper. Had Jane not
known that he was just, he argued,
she would this morning have re-
newed the supplications she made
last night. That she did not do so
was evidence that she recognized
the superiority of his wisdom as well
as his right to have what he wished
from the woman he had married.
The chagrin with which he had
appreciated lately that this girl did
not love him any better than when
he asked her to marry him was soft
ened by the reflection that she ac-
cepted him as her proper owner, the
one who could order her to do his

about "a woman, dog and hickory
tree" 1t was very true, he reflected.
When a woman understands that
man is her master he had done much
towards compelling her devotion.
Now there was Mary Baird-but
here he checked his nominations alb
ruptly. He preferred not to analyze
the case of Mary Baird.
Jane Eats Very Little
He talked patronizingly at break
fast and at dinner. He did not notice
that at the latter meal Jane ate even
less than usual. In spite of her SEEM
ing attention to her husbands CONVEX
sation, her mind was really dwelling
upon the situation ahead of her this
afternoon.
Ruth Crosby was to come over
about 3.
Jane did not want to be a coward,
but she simply dared not stay and
IdCt ile SlTl. I1eT WnOle Delng re-
Nolted against taking any one into
her confidence with regard to the
unkindness of the man whose name
she bore.
Not only would right feeling keep
her from discussing his failings
with an outsider, but her own pride
would not let her do this. The
same pride that had made her smile
in spite of the plain Augustus's
grip inflicted on her arm last night
made her feel that, were he to tor
ture her, the outside world must
never know 1t.
She had made her bed and she must
lie in 1t. No matter what Others
thought of her she must feign loyalty
to her husband. Nobody should pity
her as poor girl who had sold her
self and, in doing so, made a sorry
bargain
After dinner Augustus had Jake

WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE

go to Pattonville-the nearest manu-
featuring town--on a matter of busi.
ness. He would not be back until
after dark. Jane was glad he was
going. He would not be here to Wit
ness her discontinue.
1t was almost o'clock when she
decided to prevent Ruth's coming by
writing her a note, asking her to par
don her for cancelling the engage
ment for this afternoon, but she, Jane,
had headache, etc. The last state
ment would be true enough-yet the
wife's conscience pricked her as she
appreciated that in spirit the note
would be lie. But fear of one with
whom we live always breeds deceit.
Throwing a shawl about her, she
went out on the back porch and called
Jake. now the man of all work. Dur
ing the winter he was the only work
man retained on the farm. Her call
brought no response.
Mary came out on the porch after
her. "Jake's gone with the horse to
see his folks" she informed the wife.
HE said ii would be all right II he
got back in time to meet him." (Of
late Mary always spoke of her en-
ployer in this way. She avoided
mentioning him by name.) What
0ld you want?'
II had a note I wanted Jake to
take over to Mrs. Crosby's," Jane re-
piled. II did not know he was away.
I'm sorry"

But this is the day / have hot rolls
for supper, and / have to work them
up and set them again. And he
wouldn't like it If l left you to see to

"Oh, no." Jane said quickly. THAT
would not do. 1 know Mr.. Reeves
always wants YOU to do the baking
and he would not like my sending
YOU
"Of course he might not know the
difference" Mary unused, "and''-
NO" Jane interrupted. ut would
She would not run the risk of get
ting this woman into trouble with
Augustus. While she, Jane, could
work the rolls. her husband might
ask who did them, and would be
angry If Mary had shirked her task.
Never mind" the wife said. THE
note can't go, that's ALL
Fifteen minutes later, as she was
walking restlessly about the sitting
room, Mary entered.
You go over and see your
mother" she advised. I'll be here
to tell anybody that comes that you're
out"
Jane caught her breath. This
would be like running away. But she
wanted TO run. She could not face
Ruth. The more she thought of it,
the more impossible it seemed.
Il heard what he said last night,
Mary went on, avoiding the wife's
eyes. 7 know he told you you
couldn't have Ruth here. I'll just tell
her you've gone to your mothers
and that there's a reason why she'd
best not come tonight. Why don't
you let me say you're staying to your
mothers to supper?"
Augustus might be furious il she
stayed away, Jane knew. Yet If Ruth
could be told truthfully that she was
going to do this
I'll tell Ruth" Mary was saving,
that your mother feels bad at your
not going oftener to see her, and
that you tried to get word to her-to
Ruth, | mean-and' had no way of
doing it. Now go!"
And Jane, feeling like a coward
and deserter. Went

PLAYS AND PLAYERS

In the old days of the melodramas, 1t
was not unusual for some absorbed
members of the audience In the gallery
to call out and tell the hero that the
villain was hiding behind nearby
rock. 1t was not believed that degree
of wrapped attention would ever de-
velop at a picture play, however. Yet,
this is just what occurred in a Los
Angeles house recently, where The
Red Circle" the big Balboa detective
story was showing. AS Ruth Roland
was about to step into a trap, some one
shrieked a warning to her, just as If
she had been there to hear.

"The Eternal MnSdaIcne"

An old. old story told in a new, new
way. might be hitting manner to de-
scribe "The Eternal Magdalene," which
comes to the Orpheum Tomorrow even
ing.
The theme of Robert McLaughlin's
play is as old as history itself, but he
has taken it and shown in a startling
manner it's connection with modern
times and it's relation to the people we
meet with in every day life. The char
acterizations in The Eternal Magda-
lene" have been drawn, as by a master
hand. The people in it are living,
of life and the mask of hypocrisy so
many of them wear is torn IRON their
faces ruthlessly.
