WHEN MONEY is VALUABLE.

Eminent financiers have agreed that
the purchasing power of a dollar IN
the next few year will exceed the
purchasing power of the dollar TODAY
to a very great degree. Therefore.
when one v a dollar now, he will
have two or more dollars in after
years to purchase comforts that ad.
vancing age requires. But the dollar
saved loses much of its force unless
1t Is well invested. There is no In.
vestment today that can surpass War
Savings Stamps for the small investor
or the Treasury Savings Certificates
for those who a invest sums of 500
or $1,000, These Treasury Savings
Certificates are identical in all OF the
financial terms with the War Savings
Stamps and possess all of their ad.
vantages.

You may think l should have insist
ed on his listening, Joan. But ten
you people don't argue with that man.
They obey him. He has way of
silently putting an end to the inter
view.
We duly dined at the Fairfax, a
handsome modern hotel of the very
best sort. Everything in the most
exquisite taste. Such food! Such
service! And everybody treats John
Heron as though he were the over
lord Of the universe.
He had got tickets for the theatre
where an attraction fresh from New
York was playing.
81 don't often go to a show" he
remarked as he hailed an automobile
at the hotel door and handed me in
with painstaking chivalry, but this
one is something extraordinary. Pity
TO miss it, now we have the chance.
1t will take our minds off business"
Never word as to whether | was
agreeable to the plan! Never thought
of how ii will look to that catty vile
of President Mills! +'*"Although it
was a splendid play l was toe self
conscious to enjoy it. But the lux
ury of all this, Joan! How shall l
ever go back ID plain living in a
boarding house again?

Still Trayeling-the 9Th.
Today Mr.. Heron tossed a letter
over to me.
Read it." he said with contemp-
tuous smile-the smile was for the
letter, not for me.
II was from the president of the
road. He had heard Of the change
in secretaries and commented some
what like this:
my wife thinks It very bad taste
for you to have a pretty girl stenog
rapher," wrote the president, land

on many OF my business affairs, Her.
ron, and always find her judgment
good In this case l must ask that
you engage a man to replace Miss
Varick until such time as your form,

duties again."

Joan. | have been too busy lately
to give Mrs. Grundy thought.
"Ill leave at once, Mr. Heron, Of
course" said /, handing back the
letter.
DO you want to leaves" he asked
sharply.
"There is no question of wanting OIL
not wanting. The president of the
road has commanded"
"Stuff and nonsense! No one COM
mands me in my department. If II
were a matter OF railroad policy II
would be different. This is a ques-
ton Of managing my own office. Have
/ affronted you in any way? Have
outraged the propriedes?"
"No-certainly not" l replied, "but
they don't know"
1.-THE important thing is for Us to
know"
But President Mills says"
"I'd like nothing better interrupt
ed Mr.. Heron, than a clash with
President Mills. He is an old fogy
And he has held onto the Job l want
too long" He narrowed his eyes and
made a clenching motion with his
hand that reminded me once more OF
the overwhelming power Of the man
'I'n show him who is head Of my
department, he went on. Now then
Miss Varick, please take these let
ters-" He proceeded with his days
business and closed the incident.
In the late afternoon as we were
nearing a big town where we are to
remain a day or two, Mr.. Heron re-
marked as cody as if he were CIV
ing an order to the chef.
1--WE will dine tonight at the Fair
fax. I've given Kinoto an evening
off. 1t is a good town and the hotel
is first class. You can wear your
pretty buds If you like. IN be nov
city to have dinner on solid ground.
1 opened my mouth to protest.
But will 1t be wise" was going
to say, ito defy the president. He is
sure to hear Of it"
Mr.. Heron, however, had delivered
his command and resumed his work.

Mama called the children into the
living room and told them that she
had a bargain to make with them.
She had bought them a lovely set Of
books and she would turn them over
to them If they would promise not
to read the funny side for a while
at least. The woman that had sold
her the books had told that the fun
ny sides that came in the daily pa
pers were bad for little children and
she thought perhaps the woman knew
as she had been studying children for
a good many years.
"Tl bet," grlmbled Peter, "that
she's an old maid"
You're right about that, son, but
that wouldn't keep her from knowing
what she was talking about"
1t was alright for awhile for the

power to offer any woman. He asked
her to marry him!
The fine feathers had played their
part successfully. Gladys had guessed
at the real reason for Miss Chapin's
sudden desire for finery, a reason
which that little woman had never
really quite owned up to herself.
For when Mr.. Meeks expressed him
self on the subject of woman's dress to
his intended bride she acquiesced
meekly.
"These things" he said, lingering the
sleeve Of her georgette waist, belong
to certain-er-types of women don't
admire. When we are married, dear, l
want you to dress as modest woman
should-as you used to-"
When Miss Chaplin repeated only the
latter end OF his remark to her friend
she didn't like to hurt anyone's feel
ings-Gladys chuckled, quite all to
herself: you little fool! The bloom
ing hypocrit!"

To my surprise the detectives and
policemen assembled IN Daddy Lori
mer's office didn't receive my theory
about Bab's abduction with any en-
thusiasm at all! The motive | gave
wasn't sufficient, they said. Their
own theory was that Babs had been
stolen for the sake of ransom, and
that demand for money would prob
ably come to Mr.. Lorimer in the
morning mail. Anyway, they couldn't
consider my CLUE until they had
talked with the child's nurse.
"But we want to get the baby back
tonight" Mother Lorimer insisted.
I'VE must get Babs back tonight! !"
echoed Mother Lorimer. "She will
cry so hafd-she will not eat-she
viii not sleep unless she is put to
he'd in her own little crib. Why, some
of you men have children! You know
how a sensitive little thing like Baos
will suffer-away from home-among

in the most thrilling part when he
heard Mama coming in so he slammed
the paper down and looked very
cross. Mama carried the paper away
with her and later Prissy, who was
in the corner still as mouse, caught
her laughing at something. Prissy
craned her neck and sure enough it
was Funny side.
Later on Patty caught Jane looking
at it where Mama had put it in the
waste basket. Nor was that all. Papa
brought the evening paper home and
Peter, who was working arithmetic,
looked up to see him turn the funny
side down quickly as Mama came into
the room.

he thinks Mama amt looking"
"And Mana reads it when she thinks
we amt looking" chimed Prissy.
"And Jane reads when Norah aint
looking and l guess Norah reads II
when Jane amt looking" This was
from Patty.
"And Peter reads it when I'm not
looking" said Mama.
Then they all laughed little guilt
