"A TERRIBLE BLOW"

Synopsis. Harriet Field. twenty
eight years. old, and beautiful, is
the social secretary of the fiirta-
tious MS. Isabel Carter, at
.'Crownlauds. Richard Carter's
home, and governess of seventeen
year-old Nina Carter. Ward tweh-
ty-four years old and impression
able. fancies himself in love with
his mothers attractive secretary
Mrs. Carter's latest "affair" is with
young Anthony Pope, and the
youth is taking it very seriously
Presiding over the teacups thls
summer afternoon, Harriet is pro-
'foundly disturbed by the arrival OF
a visitor, Royal Blondin. Next
day, at a tea party in the CITY.
Blondon makes himself agreeable
to Nina, and leaves deep impress
sion on the unsoptlisticated girl.
Harriets agitation over the appear
ance of Blondin at "Crownlands'
is explained by the fact that ne
had been a disturbing element IN
her life ten years before and she
fears him. The man is an avoWed
adventurer, living on the gulllplllty
of the idle rich. He frankly an
nounces to Harriet his intention or
marrying Nina, and urges her TO
aid him. She is in sense In ms
power, and after pleading with him
to abandon his scheme agrees to
follow a policy of neutrality.
Knowing the tender feeling she has
inspired in Ward Carter, Harriet
is tempted to marry him for the
position and wealth he can give
her, though realizing she does not
love him, Blondin has ingratiated
himself with Madame Carter, Rich
ards, mother, and she is whole
heartedly in favor of his marriage
with Nina. Ward urges Harriet to
marry him. She procrastinates.

Important to all Women
Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-
BILE and may be despondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions
Many send for sample bottle to see what
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and
bladder medicine, will do for them. By
enclosing ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y, you may receive sam
pie size bottle by Parcel Post. You can
purchase medium and large size bottles at

four. Three hours sleep was not to be
despised, lut Harriet was in no mood
for it. Instead she took bath, and
just as the dawn was beginning to flood
the world with mysterious half-Iights
and long wet shadows, she crept out
into the dew-drenched garden and, with
triumphant sense of being alone,
went into the wood. Early walks
were one Of her delights. 1t was al
most seven o'clock when she came
back, glowing, beginning to feel warm
and headachy, beginning to realize
that the July day would be hot, be-
ginning to be conscious of the eight
mile tramp. In the garden at Crown
lands she met Royal. leaving the
house.
He studied her approvingly.
Harriet, do you know that you are
extraordinarily easy to look upon
What gets you up so early?"
I've been walking" she said briefly
ana unreSpOnsively. His social pleas
antries instantly antagonized her, and
he saw it.
We'll, L thought perhaps had bet

or two. Ward tells me-" he added, CIV
ing the girl a sharp glance, that you
and he-eh?"
Harriet flushed.
I'm sorry he told you!"
"Oh, my dear child!" Blondin made
a deprecatOry motion of his hands.
'Of course, l think you're very wise, "
he added.
This smOte upon her newborn self
respect, and all the glory departed
from the day. The man saw her breast
rise and fall with some quick emotion
as he Ealf-smilingly watched her.
"The lad gets a beautiful and wise
and very discreet wife," he was begin

"He loves me. l don't know what

1--WE were not discussing Nina!"
"No. 1 know it. But you reminded
me that what object to in you, with
her, I myself am doing with him-or
something very like it! Except
that" Harriet fioundered a little,
but regained her thread-"except that
he does care for me-" she repeated !;
''he loves beauty-I can say that to
you without your misunderstanding !
and then, he knows me, we have been
intimate for years, we are cOngenial ~
HE knows everything about you,"
Royal repeated, innocently, as if the
defense she made were perfectly ac-
ceptable. But again she was stung to
silence.

actly what you have said to me-" Har-
riet said, presently, with decision ,and
relief in her voice. Il shall remind
him that 1 have always been poor. and
that it is utterly impossible for me to
separate the thought of him from the
thought of what my life as his wife
would gain"
BE careful how you play your hand

dence isn't much more than none at

A moment later they parted; the
woman entering the house for a cup
Of coffee. and some conference with
butler and hOusekeeper, and the man
starting off briskly for his early walk.
But Blondin was smiling, as he went
upon his way, and Harriet was white
with anger and impotence.

said to herself, in the sunshiny silence

VALUE OF HOPE

A man without hope is the poorest
man alive because the lack of hope
dulls vision 1t is hope alone that
makes us willing to live. Man sees
nothing to urge him on to aspire to
higher levels without hope as the foun-
dation. And where there is no hope
there is no endeavor, Cecilia Anthony
writes in Thrift. Great hopes make
great men and the man who does not
try is pronounced a failure. Hope

imal rupture its heart through joy.
and it is nearly always joy that breaks
the heart. What happens is that vio-
lent emotion causes chemical sub
stance to be poured into the blood,
which stimulates the nerves of the
heart. The blood vessels are CON
tracted and the heart has to pump
against a greatly increased resistance.
Emotion causes more cases of heart
failure than hard work.

RADIOPHONES TO BE INSTALLED IN
 NEW YORK HOTEL

Radiophones will be installed in every one of the 2,5O0 rooms of the new Hotel Commonwealth, the great est hotel in the world. now being built at F'ifty-ffth. Fifty-sixth streets, Broadway and Seventh avenue, New
 York. Every guest of the hotel, the leading cooperative enterprise of this country, will be able to listen in on the concerts and operatic selections which fill the air there every night. From the Newark, N. J. plant of the Westinghouse Company, these radio entertainments are sent out and every
 evening there is a different program on which the foremost musical and operatic stars appear. In addition, all the saloons and club rooms of the Commonwealth will have the radio phone and in these cases it will be fitted with such large arnplifers that every person in the large rooms will be able to hear plainly. The Com monwealth Hotel, which now has more than 26,000 owner-members is the first great hotel to plan a full wireless phone equipment and 1t is expected that it will add greatly to the pleasure of it's guests. The old criticism that New York hotels are the 1onesomest places on earth" will cease to hold as any guest can turn on the radfophone and listen in on entertainment that cannot be bought outside the Metropolitan Opera House. In addition to musical selections, noted men and women will deliver short talks over the wireless similar to those soon to be given by Cora Van Norden Coppinger, New York's best known beauty expert. Women in all walks of life are ardent radiophope fans" and these little talks have been arranged for their benefit w.. J. Hoggson, head of the Commonwealth Hotel enterprise, said yesterday that the equipment of the hotel with radio phone is in line with His policy of making it the most modern as well as the most popular hotel in the world.
