At last the minister came downstairs When he
saw us he shook his finger roguishly.
"Oh, l know who you are he exclaimed. The
paper reporters have been calling me up

The reverend gentleman completely overlooked
our shaky appearance, or perhaps attributed it to
nervousness I still cannot understand how he rec
onced the soemnity of the service with the scent
of booze that was afraid would betray US both
whenever we were called upon to join in the ritual.
At least, when the service was over, he took
Jessie into his arms and gave her kiss that went
full four seconds over the bounds of conventionalty
Jessie was so grateful that it was all over that she
gave the parson hug and kiss that he will never
forget, if he lives to be old as Methusaleh. He
eyed him with premonition of curtain talk
after we had gone.

girls have not much respect for tenderness of sent-

ton seemed to call for some privacy at least but
Jessie, to my sorrow, wanted our honeymoon to be
as public as possible.
She had dozen reasons for this strange attitude,
chiefly that her public" would miss her if she re-
mained away from the theatre one single night. The
sad realization that she valued the opinion OF the
hooligans who filed the first ten rows of the theatre
to appraise and applaud her charms more than she
did the appreciation Of her. own husband was
shock to me, but gave in and steered the car back
to Boston.
We reached town just in time for Jessie's appear

door with nonchalant 'see you later" ! became
more and more depressed at the prospects of my
future happiness As sat with my head bowed
over the steering wheel and my arms aching for my
little bride, the stage door crossed the sidewalk
and touched me on the shoulder.
"You Jessie Reeds husband" he asked.
My heart leaped as suffered affirmative.
Perhaps Jessie had reconsidered Perhaps we would

For the general enlightenment of the public and
especially for the thoughtless inexperienced boys who
caught in the spiderweb glamours by these chorus
women, young Caswe has decided to write the details
of his experiences.
Among other things, Mr.. Caswell explains one of
the great mysteries of modern tmes-how the chorus

WOMEN WORKING FOR
SEVEN DAY CHURCH
FOR LEAD AVE. M. E.

The first effort toward achieving
a new seven-day church building
for the Lead Avenue Methodist
church is being made by the Sum
day School association, which, at
the last meeting, pledged Itself 10
raise $1,000 by January /. To
raise money for this fund q pie
and candy sale will be held on Sat-
urday at 81 West Central avenue.
The church, as planned, will be
rebuilt on the same site with addi-
tional space for club and social
rooms, auditorium and other aG-
commodations for the congreg&-
ton to be used on every day of the
week. The church will be the
most perfectly equipped one in the
southwest.
The debt on the present church
must be raised before actual plans
for the new church can be carried
out. 1t is to cancel the remaining
debt that the church organizations
are working. Many unique plaEs
for raising the money are being
prepared by the Sunday School as
ISOLATION committee.
The tennis court on the adjoin-
ing church property on Lead ave-
nue. has Leen completed ana is
already in use by the young people
of the church. The work of laying
and marking the court has been
done by the players themselves.

Pablo Martinez was arrested at
Hillsboro on charge of making
liquor. Agents found a still, said

Alkali in Shampoos
BAD for Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali,
which is very injurious, as it dries
the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsi-

this is pure and entirely grease

anything else all to pieces. You
can get Mulsified at any drug
store. and a few ounces will last
the whole family for months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of

little warm water is all that is
required. 1t makes an abund-

child she was after all!
He deposited his parcels on tho
dining room table, switched on
the lights, then went quietly to-
ward the bedroom. To his sur
prise the knob turned, and the
door opened.

thinking she might be asleep, worn
out with her emotion of the night.
No answer came, and as he turned
on the light he saw the room WAS
unoccupied, and disordered.
He called, he looked in the bath
room, the living room. No Helen.
Setting his lips grimly he took in
the disorderly rooms, the evidences
of her street toilet, looked in the
closet to see what she wore, then
sat down to think 1t over.
Had she left him? Was this her
first move toward getting a di-
vorce? She could claim cruelty be-
cause of his locking her in, and
perhaps would. Finally, through
force of habit, Jack commenced to
tidy the bedroom, then the dining
room and kitchen. BY the time
he had finished it was o'clock.
He made coffee, and cut off n
piece of the steak and broiled il,
surprised to find himself hungry

Lace is coming back strong.
OF course, it was never really
out, but today it is being worn
more than it has been for several
seasons. The aristocrat among
evening gowns is always lace
trimmed and Paris is showing any
number of all-lace gowns for for
NAL wear. Dinner gowns, particu-
larly, are OF lace.
This evening gown shown here
is made of gray crepe combined
with silver lace. The skirt is made
in an unusual fashion with a
godet of the lace in the front
and back, panels Of the plain
material at the side. front and
back, and godets of pleated crepe
at each hip. The blouse is
softly draped affair with a tri-
angle of lace in the front and
back. There are no sleeves in the
gown, but the shoulders drop over
to form small caps. Cerise velour
ribbons with dainty white flow
ers add the finishing touch to this
gown which shows master de-
