Bayard and Leila had more money

voyages. But Daphne and Clay must

two weeks vacation allotted to him.

"I'm sorry you're disappointed, but I'm

"It's mighty difficult" said Daphne.
Mrs. Chivvis thought a moment

boarded humbly, If expensively.
While they were gone, at their sug-

their apartment. 1t was large End

Now and then Clay quarreled with
Daphne because of her. obstinate de-
termination to have trade of her
own. Then they made up. And quar-
relied anew-lovers' quarrels, summer
storms that break the sultry tension
of the air and make peace endurable.
Bayard came back alone. Leila
had decided that 1t was better for
her health to stay at Newport till
the cooler weather came and her
summer wardrobe had been worn out
So Bayard joined the army Of
town-tied husbands, the summer wild
overs. He went back once week
on furlough to spend Il Newport Sab
bath with his wife. He became one
of the Friday-night-to-M -MOnday-morn-
ing excursionists. There was leisure
enough in his Office.
He insisted on Daphne's keeping
her room in his apartment, and Of
evenings he affixed himself to Ler
and Clay and made their company a
crowd. But they welcomed him as a
chaperon of sort. Also, he paid his
way with liberality, except for occa-
sional spasms of retrenchment, when
he economical atrociously. He pre-

CHAPTER XIV.

Then the Chivvises came back from
their vacation unexpectedly early. They
had found the hotels expensive and
Mr.. Chivvis was afraid that his job
would be snatched from him If he
were not there to hold it down.
Clay called on Daphne that evening
and the Chivviscs retrcated to their
own room. But rs they could be over
heard IL was evident that they could
overhear, and the lovers found no
chance to say any of the things that
frightened their souls.
One evening Daphne said to Clay in
as low voice as he could hear: "Mrs.

about our being together every eve
ming. told her we were engaged, but
she didn't seem convinced. Perhaps
you would let me wear that beautiful

Clay blenched in misery. "I-Tm

much on 1t; and last week had an in
sulting letter from the jeweler. He
threatened to sue me and notify my
firm, and I-well, had to send it

He was so downcast that she an
swered with mock cheer: "Oh, that's
all right, honey; 1t doesn't matter.
After all, it's only ring. And we
have each other"
"But we haven't each other. This
way Of living Is driving me crazy. I'll
be all right as soon as these hard
times are over and l can make some
commissions. But it's so dismal to
wait. Couldn't we get married and

He caught her in his arms so vio
lently that she squealed.

TUNNEL UNDER ENGLISH
CHANNEL TO BE BIG JOB
Construction of Tube From England to France Will Soon
Be Reality; to Cost $100O00,000

London, April 3.-Intense inter
est has been aroused by the govern
ment's announcement that the long
projected tunnel under the English
Channel to connect England and
France is soon to be constructed.
The cost of the enterprise is roughly
estimated at 500, 900, 900. Some say
the tunnel could be completed in five
and one-half years.
a commission in Paris which has
been discussing this project also is
considering the building of tunnels
under the Bosphorus connecting
Europe with Asia and one from
Gibraltar connecting Europe with
Africa.
The English Channel Tunnel Com
pany already has done vast amount
of work in anticipation of the re-
sumption of actual construction of
the tunnel to France. Engineering
plans are said to be so far advanced
that the work could begin at once.
Big Engineering Feat
With the exception of the Panama
Canal, it will be the biggest engi-
neering enterprise of modern times.
The total length, including ap-
proaches in England and France,
will be 80 miles, with more than
21 Il miles of it under the sea. The
plans provide for two tunnels, each
Is feet in diameter, connected by
cross galleries at intervals of 200
yards. The maximum depth of water
on the route is $50 feet, and a cover
of chalk about 100 feet thick would
be left undisturbed above the crown
of the tunnel to provide against
danger from enemy attack with sub
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1919-04-03

marine explosives. The tunnels
level below the sea thus will be
about ESQ feet.
Iron tubes will he built as the
tunnel advances. The extraordinary
advance made in tunnelling in re-
cent years, especially in the United
States, will enable the engineers to
proceed with great speed. The rail-
way lines will be operated by cleo
tricity as in the case of the Simplon
tunnel under the Swiss mountains
of that name, and which is 1919
miles in length. the longest at pres
ent in the world.
Before the war the quickest serv-
ice from London to Paris was in
six hours 45 minutes. With the tun-
mel the journey could be made in
six hours, whatever the weather.
Sea No Problem
Speaking of the problems of build
ing the tunnel, English engineers
say the sea itself offers no difficulty,
that the only risk lies in the geologi-
cal formations. The first layer un-
der the channel is white chalk, and
beneath this is a belt of gray chalk
some 500 feet thick. The great
question is whether the gray chalk
is impervious to water.
The exact points for starting the
tunnel have not been determine ed,
but expert opinion favors spot
just behind Dover and. in France,
u point close to Cape Griesnez.
The tunnel will be capable of
handling 10000 passengers and co.
600 tons of goods each way in "a
hours. Ordinary railway rolling
stock, including sleeping and dining
cars, will be able to use the route.

Don't Change Your
Husband" Splendidly
Shown at the Regent

At the Regent theater this after
noon the famous play, Don't
Change Your Husband" was pre-
sented in compelling manner on the
screen. There was large audience
present, who found itself moved to
emotion at times by the swiftly
changing scenes of the play. For
instance, one felt a lump in his
throat as he saw splendid jim Por-
ter go out. of the life of his wife
simply because he ate onions, was
careless in dress and as to where he
threw his cigar ashes. and didn't
take the interest in his pretty help
mate he should because he was head
over heels in business.
The play is splendidly acted by a
most capable company. The de-
nouement is thrilling, Leila Porter,
after having been married to a con-
scienceless scoundrel, returning with
more than ordinary gladness to the
heart of the good man who first
married and then divorced her when
she told him she wanted freedom.
The play is one that ought to crowd
the Regent tonight.
