If we believe that God has elabor-

Girls always like dress modelled after
the sailor costume. This one is excep-
tionally pretty, taking very graceful and
becoming lines and has certain smart
ness of its own. Appropriately, it can be
made from many different materials, but
serge and gabardine are undoubted
favorites, and here, dark blue is trimmed
with ivory white. The combination is
always a pretty and becoming one, but
of course it is possible to vary the design
in many ways in spite of its simplicity.
The sailor dress is by no means confined
to the sailor colors and the dark or
African browns and the rich greens are
lavoritc colors of the season. The pat

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water

tingroom was under the large
chamber in which she was going to
bed Any murmur of voices in there
might be heard by her in her quiet
room. Evidently Augustus wished
to have a private conversation with
ton he must have before he slept
= one which his wife must not sus-
pect.
This idea occupied James per-
turbed mind as she undressed.
Even after she was in bed her
understanding abnormally clear.
But she forced her body to lie still
as she made her plans.
Mary would come in by the back
entrance, and go Immediately into
the diningroom. Augustus would
meet her at the door to caution her
to silence. Then, while his wife was
supposedly asleep, he would ques-
ton the woman about her journey.
Jane must know about it, too.
But how?
Why, it would be the easiest
thing in the world! Over the din
ingroom was large spare bed
room. In it was hot-air register
connecting with the furnace pipe
that supplied the diningroom with
heat. In brushing and busting this
guest chamber. Jane had often
noticed that one could see through
this register the morning sunlight
as it flooded the diningroom.
But the register was always
nowadays. Well, then, Jane must
go in there and open it. The weather
had been so warm that the furnace
fire had been allowed TO die out a
fortnight ago.
She lay still until she heard Au-
gustus go out to the barn to tell Jake
that it was time he was starting for
the train. He did not call the man
for fear of waking his wife.
She Hears Him Go
And his wife, during the three
minutes that he was out of the
house ran swiftly into the spare
bedroom, opened the register, and
left the door slightly ajar. Then, as
swiftly, she darted downstairs and
room. She had seen her husband
close this a week ago with the re-
mark that it would not be needed
again this season. He had even
moved the sidetable directly in
front of it. He would never think
that anyone had disturbed it since
then.
She was back in bed before Au-
gustus returned from the barn. She
heard Jake drive out of the yard,
and, ten minutes later, she heard
the incoming train whistle at the
Milton station. She remembered
how she had listened for the whistle
of the down train on the morning
of Ned Sandersons departure last
September.
What an incongruous thought TO
have now! How different was this
watching and listening to that.
What would Ned think of her if he
know how deceitful she had be-
come?
She steeled herself against the
shrinking from the task caused by
this idea. She had been good,
trustful girl then. She was a love
less wife now. That was the diff
ference. Circumstances had done
this. The fault was not hers.

lated in obedience to a fixed law. If
man, woman or child maintains a
state of normal health, without know
ing anything about that law, good for
tune happy accident, and blind
chance are the elusive forces which
have temporarily or luckily barred
the way against destruction.
In the case of the army of the dead,
augmented in the United States every
year by nearly 100000 little children
under ten years of age, no happy ac-
cident has ever interfered.
Surely it Is evident that man should
make an effort to locate the law upon
which so much physical comfort de-
pends, understand it, and apply it as
it was evidently intended to be ap-
piled.
Each little drop of blood is an ex-
preston of that law. Anything that
interferes with the purity and charac-
ter of the blood is hostile to life. Be-
cause man leaves everything to chance
and as q rule chooses to accept the
idea that 1t is unnecessary to heed his
diet, he sends a call into the un-
known darkness and demands hun
dreds of diseases to come forth from
nothingness to assist him in misman-
aging the world in its said sum total
of misery and pain.
If we remove from our food one
element that is necessary to life we
introduce the beginning of disorder
into the body. If two elements are
removed the body may make use of
the other fourteen for a time, but
soon the unnatural condition under
which nature is thus forced to operate
will assert itself and confusion must
ensue.
If three or four or five substances
are removed from the building mate

CHAPTER LII.

Mary won't get home till the half
past ten train" Augustus Reeves re-
marked that night as he and his wife
removed the supper dishes from the
table.
He had insisted upon helping her
about her various household tasks
Indeed he had been more gentle
and ingratiating than he had ever
each proffer of assistance or eX-
preston of concern for her COM
fort, the woman's distrust deepened.
There must be some reason for
this transformation.
A man of his temperament and
character would not change from
rough boor to a polite companion
without some compelling motive.
Half past ten, you say she
reused herself from her musings
to repeat.
Yes, and 1 was just thinking
there's no need for you to sit up
for her, unless you want to. I'll
stay up and let her in if you like.
But you've been doing her work all
day. and / guess you're tired, aren't
you?"
"A little" she acknowledged. 81
think l will go to bed as soon as the
dishes are washed. Jake's going
Yes. But I don't like to go up
and leave the back door unlocked.
and l never have let any of the
men have the key to the house, so
I'll just wait down here till Mary
comes"
Jane spoke truly when she said
she was tired. But it was not the
housework that had wearied her =
for that had amounted to little. But
she was worn out with the mental
strain OF the day. There had not
been a moment since the scene of
this morning during which she had
not dwelt mentally on some aspect
of the mystery surrounding her.
And the more she thought the
more nervous did she become; and
as her nervousness increased the
more difficult it was to turn her
thoughts from her haunting prob
lem. 1t was a vicious circle that
wore her out.
Al 9 O'Clock she started to GO
of the diningroom.
\ Suggestion to Reeves
IF you are going to sit up and
read until Mary comes she sug-
gested to Augustus, wouldn't you
be more comfortable in the sitting
room. where the light is better
No" he said, flushing uneasily
under her clear gaze, "the sitting
room sofa is not as comfortable rs
this one is, and l think I'll lie down
and take a nap. You go on up to
bed and to sleep. Mary will come
in carefully. so as not to wake you.
And I'll come up very quietly after
I've locked up"
The experience of the day had
rendered Jane acutely sensitive to
the very atmosphere about her. HeT
alert suspicious made her sure that
her husband had some reason for
wanting her to go to bed and to
sleep - some reason for preferring
10 wait in the diningroom rather
than in the sittingroom. What
was this reason?
In an instant she had answered
the question for herself. The sit

The mental difference between man
and woman has been set forth in a
little pamphlet by Asaph Lewis. She
says of woman:
Her mind is higher, more refined,
This is where the principle of selec-
tion shows itself most by endowing
the weaker partner with that physical
grace and refinement of organization,
and her mental faculties are CORE
spondingly more refined.
Man, as we see every day, delights
in competition, and this leads to ambi'
tion, which passes too readily into sell
fishness. Woman, who has never en-.
tered upon the competitive field, has
not developed this selfish spirit. A
woman is more prone to sympathy;
she is more human than man.
Man cannot understand woman
the clumsy inability of a coarser nature
to appreciate the feelings of the finer
The mental hide of a man through the
different stages of evolution has been
hardened, and he carries into his home
those qualities of insensibility, self
assertion and self-seeking which have
elsewhere led to success in the strug
gle for existence. This is the cause OF
so many unhappy homes today. Man.
who is naturally coarse, cannot under
stand woman, who is naturally refined
Il have obtained sufficient proof OF
this from the many homes | have had
to visit The more ignorant the man
the more brutal is his treatment of
his wife; the more educated the less
brutal he is to his wife. The mental
difference is easily noticed between the
sexes"
1t has been the observation of this
writer that men are really more mod
est and often more humane than
women. We have only to look in the
bathrooms, public and private, in thea
ters and opera houses, to see how i'm
modest good, cultured respectable
women can be in their dress.
Husbands, fathers and brothers OF
these women suffer modification of the
spirit in seeing how their dear ones
unnecessarily display their bodies to
the public gaze.
Woman should be educated and
woman should have the franchise and
woman should have voice in the gov,
ernment in which she lives. But not
because she is superior to man or more
refined or more humane, but because
she is a thinking, toiling human being
like himself, and it is her right to be
his comrade and co-worker in all
things

Mrs. Lewis, in personal letter,
writes:
when I was writing my little book.
let l thought of Adelina Patti, Mary
Garden, Marie Corelli, Mrs. Patrick
Campbell and many others, and what
education has done for women. Be
fore woman was allowed to be edu'
Gated she had only her physical at
fractions, and when that was destroyed
by the hand of time she was helpless
But now woman is so advanced that
the one who depends upon her physical
attraction to carry her through is but
the mere shallow woman. What
woman, | ask you, to-day will stick
little bits of court plaster on her face
as an aid to her beauty? What kind OF
a man is he who admires such foolish
ness? Is it possible that we can say
such women are educated? Is that
the kind of education they receive al
college?
women depend now upon theiI
mentalities. To-day a woman knows
that her intellectual attraction is the
only attraction worthy the notice OF
real man.
Again the writer of this article must
disagree with Mrs. Lewis. Much as
approve of education, culture, equal
franchise and social and industrial
equality of the sexes, the eternal femi
nine appeals strongly to me, ever
when it exhibits itself in the coquetry
of a bit of court plaster on the cheek
or chin. The woman who ignores all
the pretty little arts of beauty-makine
and who cares only to be clean and
neat and never alluring has crossed
over the line from real femininity to
the masculine border line.
1t is necessary always for woman
to remember the Importance of being
beautiful, not only morally and men
tally, but physically, just as it is i'm
portant for a man to be strong, men
tally. morally and physically, to be the
complete man.
The woman who cultivates beauty
in her personality has much greater
power in the world than the one who
relies wholly upon her intellect 1t is
impossible to change the ideas of men
on these subjects.
The woman who undertakes to hold
mans regard by simply being his
mental associate, ignoring all the arts
and frivolities of dress and the care
of her complexion, her hair and heI
figure, is more than likely to find her
self superseded before middle age in
the mind of the man of her choice
by some other woman, mentally heI
inferior, but possessing physical
charms.
Mrs. Lewis needs to study both sexe;
little more closely before she ex
presses herself too emphatically OF
this subject.

All food contains some of the build
ing materials needed by the blood.
Some foods contain all of them, except
where man ignorantly removes them.
If by accident we should consume
for a few months food deficient in
some of these building materials we
should gradually feel the effects upon
our general health. 1t is not difficult
to understand that If we are partial
to a particular kind of food from
which a considerable portion of ma
lures building materials has been
abstracted we are bound tc develop
disorder.
When the laws under which nature
operates are suspended nature does
not operate normally. Man might as
well expect a jeweler to make a watch
without the materials from which the
wheels, springs, screws, and bearings
are made as to expect nature to make
a drop of normal blood without the
elements that enter into the compost
ton of that blood.
Nature will set up a warning for
us before fatal damage has been done,
in order that we may quickly set
about the work of repair. But IL we
do not understand her warming, or
do not heed it, we head straight for
destruction, unless in the mean time,
some accidental change of diet pro-
vides the body with the offsetting ele-
ments necessary to the maintenance
of it's balance.
Food is the most important thing IN
life because upon 1T all other things
