THE BIG BRIDGE PROPOSE.
TON,

IL IS RIdIlly lHS W HotV tHdL tH'
proposition to bridge the Miss
. issippi River at New Orleans ha.
engendered such deep, wide
spread, earnest interest. 1t is
likewise gratifying to note that
there is action a-foot to nip-in-the.
bud the original proposition to
give to private interests the ex-
elusive right to construct, con-
troll. and reap the revenues from
such a structure.
One of the most prominent
firms Of architects in the United
States has declared the belief that
such bridge, or a tunnel beneath
! the river, would easily pay six per
cent on whatever investment
MIGHT be made in it. The cost of
span which would accommodate
double tracks for street and steam
railroads, causeway for other
character Of vehicles and for ped
estrians. has been reckoned at, APP
proximately, $13,O00.O0O. 1t would
be possible to complete it within
two years. Within seventeen
years. perhaps less time. the
bridge would pay for itself. ac-
cording to estimates of the ex-
perts.
The bridge idea had its origin
with the late f. l.. Cortell. one of
the worlds most noted bridge
designers and builders. almost
thirty years ago. Since that time
it has been agitated, from time to
tine. and Of late certain holders of |

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid. says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the

you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in

Guilty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call il,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to
overcome. Get about four ounces OF
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in glass of wa

two or three days. This will neutral

journey out there and back. and the
ordeal of seeing and talking to her
father in the room in which he had
sat and talked with her in days
that were dead.
The lure of the Spring was over
the land on this afternoon in early
May. The buds on the fruit trees
were beginning TO swell. The grass
was light green; the smell OF
growing things was in the air. a
bluebird flew over the little lawn
in front of the Hardy house as
Sanderson went UP the path.
His talk with Ezra-now changed
TO a bent old man-was brief. Ned
had said little by way of introduc-
ton, but had demanded bluntly
what the father knew of those let
ters which had been returned un-
opened.
Ezra, never strong in character.
was now too broken and subdued TO
resent the young mans manner and
speech and made a clean breast of
the whole affair, withholding moth
ing, softening nothing. What diff
ference could II make? Augustus
was dead - Jane might be going TO
die.
The Possibility
His voice broke as he spoke OF
this last possibility. and Sanderson
laid gentle hand on the bowed
shoulders.
please God she'll get Well" he
murmured, his throat contracting
painfully.
But even as he said il he remem-
bered what life might mean to her,
what horror of anguish she might
have to face. If he could only help
her. could only let her know that
he would believe in her in spite
OF the whole world.
send me word2" he begged when he
was leaving the house.
Ezra looked at him curiously, and
something he saw in the frank eyes
smote him as he remembered how
he had deceived this man. He
must have loved Jane very much,
he thought weakly.
Yes. yes, I'll let you know. I'll
let YOU know" the father promised.
As Edward Sanderson went softly
down the steps he heard a low
moan from the rooms over the porch
where the window was stretched
wide open. He recollected that this
used TO be James room.
A mist came to his eyes and he
bit into the flesh. That this thing
should have come TO HER-the
sweetest. the desrest-oh, he could
not bear il!
When he had reached his own
rooms and sat down to think he
tried to derive some comfort in re-
fiecting that, after all, Jane had
never returned his letters to him.
She had been sacrificed TO a con-
( scienceless suitor and TO weak
father.
Between them they've crushed
her. killed her - my darling! my
darling!" he groaned.
And although he was a great
strong man, he was not ashamed
when he broke down and sobbed
/ like a woman.

Smoking makes such pretty finish for
little girls dresses that it is being much
used. 1t is very simple too and means
little labor. In this case, it holds the full
ness at the neck and sleeve edges and
it is done in plain color to match the
darkest shade in the checked material,
the collar and cuffs matching the lightest
shade. The frock is a very smart one and
very simple one. hepattern gives both
the seams and the Tasting line and conse-
quently it can be cut out in the traditional
jify; it is necessary only to sew up on the
indicating lines to be sure of success.
The model can be used for great many
different materials,-for challis, for wool
crepe, for the cashmere that is always
pretty for girls dresses and also for a
variety of washable materials, and indeed
for almost anything that is child-like and
at the same time soft enough to be gath
cred or shocked successfully. The sleeves
are in raglan style. consequently they
require no fitting.

There ts no stronger proof Of mans
evolution than his adaptability-his
power of attainment through the mate
rial at hand, however elementary.
From the very beginning, the necessi-
ties of his new life called to Gerry's
dormant instincts. For the first week
he would not hear. The past loosens
its tendrils slowly. He was listless
and loafed restlessly about the house.
The two darkies worked for his WELL
being. the two white women waited on
him hand and foot. At first 1t was
lulling; then 1t was wearying. he be-
gan to wander from the house.
But the week had not been alto
gether .ost He had gathered desul-
tory but primitive information. 0cca-
sional re-occurring words began to be
more than mere sounds. The girls
name was Margarita. The wrinkled
little woman was her aunt, Dona
Maria. The two darkies were linger-
ing relics of slave days. They had
been born here. They had gone with
emancipation, but they had come
back. The name of the plantation was
Fazenda Flores. To them it was the
world. They had wandered out of 1t
hand in hand with liberty but they had
come back because freedom was here.
They needed someone to serve. Mar
garita had long been an orphan. The
place was hers and had once been rich.
But before her day water had become
scarce. The place was uncared for
and had fallen into its present ruin.
1t was well, she said. for if she had
been rich suitors would have searched
her out long SINCE. She was eighteen.
She had been a woman for years!
These things. some of them distinct.
some only half-formed impressions, ran
in Gerry's head as he wandered over
the fazenda. 1t had once been rich,
why was it not rich now? Fertility
sprang TO his view Oh every side save
one. This was the gentle slope away
from the river and behind the house.
Even here he discovered hummocks in
alignment, vague traces of the careful
tilling of another time He climbed
the slope till he came to depression
running parallel to the river. 1t made
line and beyond that line was desert
untamed. Cactus and thorn dotted its
barren soil. Gerry followed the de-
preston down 10 us end. then turned
back and followed It up. 1t wandered
among rocks and hillocks to a natural

WOMEN'S INTERESTS
WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHARTER LIZ

CHAPTER IX
(CopYright- 1916. Star Coz
Edward Sanderson had read of the
gruesome tragedy in the city papers.
At first he found IL hard to believe
the evidence of his own senses. As
a rule he stunned the stories such as
this. He had no morbid taste for
the horrible. But just as he was
about to turn his eyes away from the
details of the murder of "a wealthy
farmer up the State" the name of the
place in which the crime had been
committed seemed to start up out of
the print and strike him.
Milton" he exclaimed. The name
brought with il a flood of memories.
and for a moment he looked out of
the window of his office at the strip
of blue sky that showed above the
All, would he ever forget? Would
those bitter-sweet memories ever
cease TO stab and wound?
He glanced again at the paper.
1t would be odd if the name of the
person who had been killed were
one which he recalled. He thought
he had forgotten everybody in Mil
ton except the one person who had
hlled all his horizon. Nobody else
mattered. And she was worse than
dead TO him.
And then he read the name OF the
man she had married. He was glad
he was alone now, for the walls
of the little office in which he was
seated swan and swayed strangely.
He grasped the edge of his desk
with both hands and read on, mis-
eyes wide and dark, his face pale
and his breath coming fast.
Dead, Murdered. And Jane
what about Jane? He must know!
He MUST know,
Preoccupation
This thought possessed him day
and night. He ate little and slept
less for the next few days. He
knew a newspaperman who had
been put on this case. Sanderson
sought him out and tried to make
II was through him that he
learned of the horrible suspicion
that was growing in Milton. He
learned, too, that perhaps the sus-
pected wife would never be brought
TO trial that she was so i'll that
she might die.
OF course he, Edward Sanderson.
knew that il was all a hideous mis-
take, just as that wicked marriage
had been. He had never been able
TO believe that Jane had sold herself
until his letters to her had come
back unopened. He had sometimes
wondered since her marriage If she
had really known of those epistles.
For he had written several times
after getting back his first unopen-
. ed letter. but all his communica-
tions had been returned. He had
even sent Jane a note a few DAYS
before he met her and Reeves walk
ing on Fifth avenue. When he saw
her with Reeves theer he knew that
she was married. and had never
written to her after that.
Now, however. he must know the
truth. And one day he boarded a
train for Milton.
He wondered afterward how he
had endured the hours spent in that
