On cold November night, in the
year 1T5, the English mail coach, on
its way from London to Dover. was
carrying among its passengers a Mr..
Jarvis Lorry. a London banker of the
well-known firm Of TeIlson and Com
pany. As the cotcn stumbled along
in the darkness there arose before
him the vision Of an emaciated fig
ure with hair prematurely white. All
night between him and the specter
the same words repeated themselves
again and again:

Almost eighteen years"

L can't say"
About eighteen years before the
story opens DR.. Manette, a promI-
nent young physician Of Paris, had
suddenly disappeared. Everything
was done to discover some trace Of
him. but in vain. The loss Of her hus-
band caused his wife such anguish
that she resolved to bring up her lit
tie daughter in ignorance of her
fathers fate; and when in two years
she died she left little Lucie under
the guardianship OF Tellson and Com
pany, to whose care DR.. Manette for
many years had inuUsted his fnan-
cial affairs.
Strange tidings concerning the doc
tor had just come from Paris, and
Mr.. Lorry was on his way to meet
his ward and explain to her the facts
Of her early life. This was a duty
from which the kind-hearted banker
shrank. and when he saw the slight
golden-haired girl who came to meet
him his heart almost failed him; but
his task was accomplished at last
And now" concluded Mr.. Lorry.

has been taken to the house of a for

The servant that sheltered Dr.
Manette was a man by the name of
Defarge who, with his wife, kept a
wine-shop in the obscure district of
St Antoine. The banker and Lucie
were taken to an attic where a hag-
gard white-haired man sat on a low
bench, making shoes, a wreck Of a
man oblivious of all around him.
Again was the Channel crossed, and
again the old inquiry whispered in the
ear Of Jarvis Lorry:

time her life had been devoted to re-
yenge.
Three years Of crime and blood
shed passed. and in 1872 Mr.. Jarvis
Lorry and Charles Darnay landed in
Paris, the former to protect the
French branch of Tellson and Com
pany, and the latter to befriend an
old family servant who had be-
sought his help. Not until they had
set foot in Paris, did they realize
into what a caldron of fury they
had plunged. Mr.. Lorry. on account
of his business relations was al
lowed his freedom, but Darnay was
hurried at once to the prison Of La
Force, there to await his trial The
reason given for this outrage was
the new law for the arrest OF all re-
turning French emigrants, but the
true cause was that he had been
recognized as Charles EYremonde.
The Washington herald., 1919-08-05

These tidings soon reached Lon
don. and DR.. Manette. with his
daughter. Lucie, hastened to Paris,
for he felt sure that his long con-
finement in the Bastile would win
for him the sympathy of the French
people, and thus enable him to save
his son-in-law. Days and months
passed; and although the doctor sue
ceeded in gaining a promise that
Darnay's life should be spared. the
latter was not allowed to leave his
prison.
At last. came the dreadful year OF
the Reign of Terror. The sympathy
which at first had been given to Dr.
Manette had become weakened
through the influence of the blood
thirsty Madame Defarge. Also, there
had been found in the ruins of the
Bastile. a paper which contained Dr.
Manettes account of his own ao-

If Heat Causes Wrinkles
to Form, Try This

If the heat tends to loosen and
wrinkle your skin, there's an efec-
tive and harmless remedy you can
readily make at home. Just let an
ounce of pure powdered saxolite dis
solve in a half-pint of witch hazel
and battle your face in the liquid.
This at once tightens the skin and
smooths out the lines. making the
cuticle and underlying tissues much
frmer. The ingredients of course
can be obtained from any druggist.
The saxolite lotion is splendid for
fabby cheeks or chin, as well as for
enlarged pores. 1t makes a tired,
wilted face more refreshed and

KITCHEN STOVES.

In your kitchen you should have

as little unnecessary heat as possible,
and with a ventilating arrangement to
carry off cooking odors.
