will be considerably more"
"If you consider that my work will
be satisfactory" Miss Weir began.
II don't think there's any doubt on
that score. You have q good record In
the Office" he interrupted smilingly.
Nov let us get to work and clean up
this correspondence"
Thus her new duties began. There
was an air of quiet In the private Of
fee, greater luxury of appointment,
which suited Miss Hazel Weir to a
nicely. The work was no more diff
cult than she had been accustomed to
doing-a trifle less In volume, and
more exacting in attention to detail,
and necessarily more confidential, for
Mr.. Andrew Bush had his finger tips
on the pulsing heart of big business.
The size of the check which Hazel
received in her weekly envelope was
increased far beyond her expectations.
Nelly Morrison had drawn twenty dol
lars a week. Miss Hazel Weir drew
twenty-fve-a substantial increase
over what she had received in the ship
ping department. With that extra
money there were plenty of little
things she could get for the home she
and Jack Barrow had planned.
Things moved along in routine chan
nels for two months or more before
Hazel became actively aware that a
subtle change was growing manifest I'm

Bush. She shrugged her shoulders at
the idea at first. But she was q wom-
an; moreover, a woman of intelligence.

keen.
The first symptom was flowers, dain-
ty bouquets of which began to appear
on his desk. Colncident with this, Mr..
Bush evinced an inclination to drift
into talk on subjects nowise related
to business. Hazel accepted the trib-
ute to her sex reluctantly giving him
no encouragement to overstep the nor
NAL bounds OF cordiality. She was alb
solutely sure of herself and of her love
for Jack Barrow. Furthermore, Mr..
Andrew Bush, though well preserved,
was drawing close to fifty-and she was
twenty-five. Tnat In itself rcassured
her.
Thus the third month of her tenure

in this town, where you were born
where all your friends live"
THAT sounds like threat, Mr.
Bush. What do you mean"
II mean just what l say. I will
admit that mine is, perhaps, q selfish
passion. If you insist on making me
suffer, shall do as much for you.
There are two characteristics of mine
which may not have come to your at
tention: 1 never stop struggling for
what want And 1 never forgive or
forget an injury or an insult. If you
drive me to ii, you will find yourself
drawing the finger OF gossip. Also,
you will find yourself unable to secure
a position In Granville. Also, you may
find yourself losing the-er-regard OF
this-ah-fortunate individual upon
whom you have bestowed your afrec-
tons; but you'll never lose mine," he
burst out wildly. "When you get done
butting your head against the wall
that will mysteriOusly rise In your
way, I'll be waiting for you. That's
how love. I've never failed In any
thing i ever undertook, and l don't
care how fight, fair or foul, so that

"This isn't the fifteenth century,"
Hazel let her indignation flare, "and
I'm not at all afraid of any of the
things you mention. Even If 1 weren't
engaged, I'd never think of marrying
man old enough to be my father-a
man whose years haven't given him a
sense of either dignity or decency.
Wealth and social position don't mod
ify gray hairs and advancing age.
Your threats are an insult. This isn't
the stone age. Even If 1t were," she
concluded cuttingly, you'd stand
poor chance Of winning a woman
against a man like-well-" she
shrugged her shoulders, but she was
thinking of Jack Barrow's broad shoul-
ders, and the easy way he went up a
flight of stairs, three steps at time.

Bush caught her by the shoulders be-
fore she took second step.
"Gray hairs and advancing agew he
said. $50 I strike you as approaching
senility, do I? I'll show you whether
I'm the WORKOUT specimen you seem
to think am. Do you think I'll give

1t; it only makes me the more deter

"You can't. / dislike you more every
second. Take your hands off me.
please. Be a gentleman-if you can"
For answer he caught her up close
to him, and there was no sign of de-
cadent force in the grip of his arms.
He kissed her; and Hazel, in blind
rage, freed one arm. and struck at him
man fashion, her hand doubled into
a small fist. BY the grace Of chance,
the blow landed on his nose. There
was force enough behind 1t to draw
blood. He stood back and fumbled for
his handkerchief. Something that
sounded like an oath escaped him.

IN THE SPRING

will be the great test of life and death
struggle on the Western front. In the
everyday walks of life, it is the spring
time that brings i'll health. One of the
chief reasons why the rundown man
finds himself in a bad state of health in
March or April, is because he has spent
nearly all his hours for the past four or
FIVE months penned up within the walls
of house, factory or Office. 1t is the rea-
son for our diminished resistance-that
is, lack of outdoor life, coupled with
perhaps over-eating lack of good exer-
else, insufficient sleep, and constipation.
In other words, we keep feeding the
furnace with food but do not take out
the "clinkers," and our fire does not burn
brightly. Always keep the liver active.
There is nothing better for health than
taking an occasional mild laxative, per-
haps once a week; such a one as you
can get at any drug store, made up OF
May-apple, jalap, aloes, (sugar-coated,
tiny, easily taken }, which has stood the
test of fifty years of approximately,
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. But for

"blues," one should take a course Of
treatment every spring; such standard

plodding along the street. There's no
spring, no vitality. A vitalizing tonic such
as this vegetable extract OF DR.. Perce's

action. The brain responds TO the new
blood in circulation, and thus you're ready
to make a fight against stagnation which

wondering mildly why she should be
called upon to shoulder part of Nelly
Morrison's work, and trifle dubious
at the prospect Of facing the rapid-fire
dictation Mr.. Bush was said to infiict
upon his stenographer now and then.
When she was seated, Bush took up
a sheaf OF letters, and dictated replies.
Though rapid, his enunciation was per-
fectly clear. and Hazel found herself
getting his words with greater ease
than she expected,
"Thats all, Miss Weir" ne said,
when he reached the last letter. Bring
those in for verlficatiOn and signature
as soon as you can get them done"
In the course of time she completed
the letters and took them back. Bush
glanced over each, and appended his
signature.
THAT'S all, Miss Weir" he said po-
litely. "Thank you"
And Hazel went back TO her ma
chine, wondering why she had been
requested to do those letters when
Nelly Morrison had nothing better to
do than sit picking at her type faces
with toothpick.
She learned the significance Of 1t the
next morning, however, when the Of
fee boy told her that she was wanted
by Mr.. Bush. This time when she en-
tered Nelly Morrison's place was va
cant. Bush was going through his
mail. He waved her to a chair.
"Just a minute" he said.
Presently he wheeled from the desk
and regarded her with disconcerting
frankness-as If he were appraising
her, point by point, so to speak.

Weir" he finally volunteered. miss

"Glve me chance to show you that

Don't leave. Stay here where I can

won't annoy you. And you can't tell.
After you get over this surprise you
might find yourself liking me better"
THAT'S just the trouble" Hazel
pointed out. eff I were here you
would be bringing this subject up in
spite of yourself. And that can only
cause pain. 1 can't stay"

Brave Milk Girls of Reins.

by the women of Reims.
THE little milk girls" he writes,

Milk was necessity for the children,
the aged and the sick. Thanks to the
little milk girls they never went with
out. The tinkling of their little bells
announced their arrival and for A
months they traversed all the streets
of the city. Many Il time they were
taken by surprise by a storm of shells.
Three of them had to be carried away
on Stretchers, yet the others continued
on their route so that the children and
sick should have their milk all the
same. On February IS we heard the
tinkling of their bells for the last time.

Fashions may come and fashions
may go, but the habiliments of Uncle
Sans jackies never vary. Trained to
face nature in the open, the Jacky is
invariably ready to meet all sorts of
weather. He knows how to dress to
meet every condition, and the navy
not only has him sufficiently clad, but
has more clothes in his sea bag and
ready for use when he needs them.
His clothes are eternally blue, the
pattern never changes and tradition
still holds her own in their making.
Decades ago when the sold tars" had
to climb a mast and dangle from the
stretched-out ends Of yardarms to do
their reefing, cOnvenienceS and GUS
tom made necessary the bell-shaped
lower ends of the trousers. And time
has not changed them one iota. The
sailor also clings to his black hand
kerchief, draped about his blue blouse
and tied across his breast. Tradition
tells that the handkerchief thus worn
originated With the British tar, for the
blacks were once worn in this fashion
as a mark of mourning for Lord Mel
son. The custom endures,
