HERE'S FINE DRINK IF
YOUR SYSTEMS STRONG

YORKVILLE. Ohio, Dec. o.
A unique drink popular among To-
cal "hootch hounds" is made by
using sweet spirits of nitre as a
base. A small hole is Clipped in a
cake Of ice. A channel is formed
from the hole to the edge OF the
ice, where a bottle, or d can, is
placed. The spirits Of nitre is
poured into the lice pond" AS it
runs out through the channel, the
ether in the liquid is frozen. The
product emptying into the cpntainer
is credited with being pure alcohol.

CHAPTER XXXVII.

During the following week she
gave a dinner and insisted upon
his attendance. She had given 9TH
ers to that increasing throng that
had been young with her in the
eighties and to others who had
stormed and conquered that oncs
impregnable citadel, but, she in.
formed him, it was now time to
entertain some of the younger
women, and he must help her.
He consented readily enough, for
he was curious to see her sur
rounded by a generation into which
she had coolly stepped with no dis
advantage to herself and, from all
he heard, considerable to them.
He knew that not only Vane but
other men in their late twenties
and early thirties were paying her
devoted attentions. Dinwiddie,
who met him in the park one day
and dined with him in the Casino,
had spoken with modified enthus-
iasm of these conquests, but add
ed that it was yet to be demon
strated whether the young men
were egged by novelty or genuine
coveting, When he limited that
she may have appealed to that Sc
cret lust for the macabre that ex-
lists somewhere in all men, Claver-
ing had scowled at him so feroc-
iously that he had plunged into
rhapsody and bewailed his own lost
youth.

Silenced
And then he had endeavored to
sound the young man in whom he
was most interested, but of whose
present relations with Mary Fat
tiany he had no inkling; he had
not seen them together nor heard
any fresh gossip since her second
debut. But he was told to shut
up and talk about the weather.
Clavering. who knew that hs
f, would not have a moment alone
with her, went to the dinner in
much the same, mood as he went
to a first night at which he was
reasonably. sure of entertainment.
1t certainly would be good comedy
to the detached observer, and this
he was quite capable of being with
nothing better in. prospect. New
ertheless, he was utterly unpre-
pared for the presence of Anne
Goodrich and Marian Lawrence,
for he understood that the dinner
was given to the more important
Of the young married women. But
they were the first persons he
saw when he entered the drawing
room. They were standing togeth-
er-shoulder to shoulder, he re-
Elected cynically-and he knew
that they privately detested each
other, and not on his account
only.
How like Mary Zattiany, with
her superb confidence in herself,
to ask these hea utiful girls, who
she had heard wanted to marry
him themselves Well, he under
stood women we'll enough to be in
dulgent to their little vanities.
He was almost the last Of the
guests, but he had time to observe
the two girls before dinner was
announced, in spite of the fact
that he was claimed by other &C.
quaintances before he could reach
them.
Anne looked reeally handsome in
gold-colored tissue and paillettes
that gave a tawny light to her eyes
and hair, and to her skin an amber
glow. She held hep head very
high, and in spite Of her mere five
feet five, looked little less stately
than Madame Zattiany, who wore
marvellous velvet gown the exact
shade of her hair. Marian Law
renee was small but so perfectly
made that her figure was always
alluded to as her body, and she
carried her head, not regally, but
with an insolent assurance that
became her. She was very beau
tiful, with a cleaning white skin
that she never powdered nor col
ored, and hair like gold leaf, parted
and worn in smooth bands over
her ears and knotted loosely on
her neck in the fashion known as
Ia Verge. Her large grayish-
green eyes were set far apart and
her brows and lashes were black.
She had straight, innocent-look-
ing nose with very thin nostriis,
into which she was capable OF
compressing the entire expression
OF face. She generally wore the
fashionable colors Of the moment,
but tonight her soft, shimmer:ng
gown was of palest green, and
Clavertng wondered If this were a
secret declaration OF war. She,
too. was of the siren class, and it
was possible that sho and Mary
Zattiany derived from some com.

her hair on a rock or floatel

Russia. But there were absymal
differences between the two WON.

thought of hatred through recogni-
ton of the omnipresence Of love, strife
and war would be overcome" said A.

don. in a lecture at noon today at
Keith's Theater.
Perhaps the most familiar refer
ence to God in the Bible il the won
derful statement, God is love. " con
tinued the speaker. "and still many
feel that any reference to the Deity
must be made with bated breath. /
ask you. is it practical to fear lover"
Divine Mind"
The speaker showed that Mrs
Eddys writings frequently referred to
God as the divine mind, or as the
"all-knowing, all-seeing, ever present
God, or good.
Christian Science teaches that God
is love and omnipotent, and is based
upon the teachings Of God" ne said.
Therefore, there is but one divine
mind knowing all.
History Traced
we see, then, that this one and
only cause could not create anything.
Or could not be expressed or reflected
In anything unlike Himself
The speaker briefly traced the his
tory of Christian Science from Mrs.

found the method Of healing of Jesus
was the natural fulfllment of divine
