The scene opens with our brave bachelor hero alone in his bachelor apartment-two rooms and bath in Hill tons "One-apartment hotel"
 He was wondering If 1t would be bet- ter to ask the girl who appealed most to him as possible wife to marry hiSn and break it to her that she was alFD expected to be stenographer, kr whether 1t would be better to look up a good stenographer and having seledt- ed her for her merits in this capacity take chance on the proposition of making her his wife. There were two ways of approaching the situation.
 The unalterable facts in the case were that in his work in one of His- tons recently created war industries his efficiency was decidedly curtailed because he had no stenographer. and that after having used every means he could think of he had not been able to find young woman in town capable of taking the job who was not already employed, or any conceivable roord where a girl from out of town might be housed. Bradley had gone over pos sible rooms with a fine-tooth comb. There were simply none to be had.
 Bradley had come six months befor, when the boom In Hilton was just starting, and he had been fortunate enough to get what at other times would have been regarded as rather bad buy" in the way of an apartment.
 It had two rooms, and much as Brad ley disliked the idea of sharing his sanctum with male stenographer, he had considered the proposition of get ting young man to take the job and allowing him to sleep on cot in his

explain she would be glad to hear. She was staying in the room of 8 friend who had gone away for the week end and would want to see him sometime the next day, Monday and would also be glad to have him find room for her.
 "Yes, indeed" stammered Bradford
 Bradford stopped for dinner on his way to his apartment and at nine o'clock when he arrived there he found very weary Molly Drew waiting for him in the small reception room down stairs.
 "I've come," she said with finality. T thought it over and over and when 1t occurred to me that probably if you didn't persuade me to be your secre- tary, you'd persuade some good ste nographer to be your wife, just couldn't go through the strain of a regular wedding.
 And so-here I am. I have been studying stenography this winter. didn't tell you, but really wanted to do some sort of war work. It was JuSI UcCduSc WdS pccFeu DSCduoC you'd never asked me before that said what I did"
 By dint of much persuasion Brad ford found accommodations for Molly for the night in the little hotel, and the next afternoon after his days work at the office was over he took unto himself the bride of his heart and ac- quired stenOgrapher.
 Molly never knew that at nine that Monday morning he met Maud Gaston and told her what he felt was the best advice he could give her. He said that she would never cease regretting having left her uncle, that the war would soon be over and then inflated salaries in Hilton would be thing of the past, and that she would be a very sweet, sensible girl if she hurried back to the home town on the next train.
 Whereupon Maud sighed with relief. "I was afraid you'd found job for me-" she said, "and I'm homesick al- ready. Suppose you never tell any one about meeting meT
 And having exacted similar prom ise from Maud, Bradford hurried on his way.

ADVERTISING WILL :. PUT OVER THE "
The Newspapers The Greatest Asset in Distributing the Lib- erty Loan.

The newspapers will be counted upon to put over the "Victorious Fifth" Liberty Loan just as they die it's four predecessors.
 Prominent newspaper advertisers Izinxvmany : 5 zinx parts of the country have
 ecently, in response to inquiries from officials of the United States treas ury, declared almost unanimously that they would prefer to again buy newspaper space and give it to the government rather than to resort to any new scheme for putting across this last chapter, of the war finance program.
 The talk of dumping it on the banks is mistaken andsunwise in the ex- sSeme.
 It would be a mighty bad thing for business in aeSeral if the banks GsefAs compelled to absorb this fifth issue of the Liberty Loan.
 It would mean that if the funds of the banks were tied up in government securities the banks would have no money to loan to business houses for the expansion of their activities.
 The victorious Fifth" will be taken by the people and newspaper space mus be used to aid in this pur- pose.
 The Victorious Fifth" loan must be sold both on motives of patriotism and as wise and profitable investment that will involve an intensive cam- paign of education.
 When leading newspaper adverti sers and the directors of advertising in the federal reserve districts re- gently held council on the loan of 1919, men who paid for space in oth- CT loan drives were almost unit in declaring that they stood ready to re- peat their orders.
 Three lines of appeals will be dom inant in the Fifth Liberty Loan
 The first of these is Finishing the Job". The argument Will be made that Uncle Sam must be kept in funds un- til the job over there is definitely done, and until provision Is made for the proper care of all the sick and wounded.
 The second topic will be Peace and Prosperity" This takes account of not only the obligations but the op- portunities of the nation in our new position of world leadership.
 Finally, the theme of investment. in the safest security on earth issued for short term and this exceptionally attractt-"> to buyers.

The famous blue and purple dyes of the east, frequently mentioned in his- tory, were in all probability extracted from the ROccella lichen, which has been extensively used in France in re- cent years when gorgeous colors were desired for silks. These dyes are se- cured by pulverizing the plant body, termed the thallus, and extracting the coioring matter by applying alkali.
