 ]. Had been older, more worldly wise, would have called it an intention to cultivate here.
 She had said Manville had been very attentive when he visited the city be- fore he came here to live. Could she be the author of that letter had read? Somehow I didn't believe she was. The letter did not sound like she look ed and acted. It wasn't society" enough.
 The very next day after Mrs. Norton called June Cabot, a girl from Chicago who had married short time before I did, came to see me. We never had been intimate, because, as you know, I never had been able to go out as my sisters had. But I had met and liked June's husband when he came on be- fore they were married and had sent them cards when we reached New town. June and her husband were both real young. She was not quite twenty and he was twenty-three.
 "We do have such good times," she said, enthusiastically. T know we act like a couple of kids, but as long as we are happy it is no ones busi- ness." I heartily agreed with her. We chatted all the afternoon I had to tell her all we had done since coming to Newtown, where we had been, etc. l spoke of the Hughes dinner and she asked me who the guests were.
 I may know. some of them" she said, with a laugh, although it isn't likely, as they are an older set"
 "They weren't all old. There was a Mir. Mckee"
 Not Lawson Mckee? Why, Alfred knows him very well," she interrupted.

Printed Enolesssn

Printed EnOleMn
 In printed linoleum, no coloris added to the cork and oxidized linseed oil. Instead, a pattern in colors IS printed on the sur face with heavy oil paints.
 LinoIeHm rugs
 Rugs of liA-oleum are made of cork, .lin- seed oil, and burlap. They lie flat with out curling and are waterproof, sanitary, and serviceable. Armstrong's Rugs are made in printed and inlaid inoleum. You can identify genuine linoleum rugs by the sturdy burlap back. They are flexible and not easy to tear. Made in sizes from 6 9 feet to 9 X 12 feet. They brighten any room in which they are laid.
 So easy to Keep clean
 The linoleum floor is the easiest of all floors to keep clean. It never needs re- finishing Itnever needs harsh scrubbing. Wash new inlaid linoleum as soon as laid, with mild soap like Ivory. Then give 1t two very thin coats of standard floor wax rubbed in thoroughly, and polish with weighted brush. z
 A dry mop used daily will take all dust and dirt from this smooth surface, and renew the polish. Rewax once or

CHAPTER XIV


 All the way home I thought of what %G6t lovely Mrs. Markham had said to Manxille. Where would he find her every day at 3, and why should he want to find her? In spite Of mothers social aspirations, and regardless of the fact that Elaine had married almost if not quite-solely for money, our bringing up had lot been of the kind what makes it seem the natural thing for married man to make an appointment with a woman not his, wife. It could let be that. She must have referred to something else, some thing I did not understand because l had not heard what went before.
 Yet I could not dismiss it from my mind entirely, and when Mrs. Norton, one of the women I had met at the dinner, called and asked me if Mrs. Markham had called on me I was de- lighted to have chance to talk of her. Y No, only met her the other night"
 But she is such very old friend ts,f your husbands. supposed, of E.ourse, she had called long ago."
 No,-but she is charming, is she Enot?''

 We talked little longer, but did not mention the widow again. When

 "Oh, Mir. and Mrs. Norton"
 That cat! Don't play with her, Susan, she'll scratch"
 Then there was widow, Mrs. Markham"
 T never have met her, but I know of her. One woman who knows her quite we'll paid her the compliment of saying she was the most dangerous woman she knew-to another woman's husband. But you, of course, aren't interested in that phase of her char acter."
 was, but I also was too proud to say so. Before June went she asked us to dinner for a day the following week. I accepted gladly, then happen ed to think that Manville might have an engagement and made it conditional until I could talk with him.
 Do make him come. I am going to have quite dinner party. I shall be so disappointed if you don't. am so glad we are going to live in the same place. We must be real chummy. She kissed me affectionately' as she said it and I returned her caress with in terest. It was so nice to have some one of my own age to talk to-some one be- fore whom I wasn't afraid to express myself.
 I could scarcely wait until Manville came home to tell him.
 "How old is this man your friend married?" he asked.
 He's real young. Only twenty three."
 Il don't care for men of that age. See them if you want to, but-don't ex- pect me to waste my time with them. Decline their invitation"

DARIEN, August 1.-The islands

er unused for agricultural purposes
since the abolition of slavery caused
a decline in rice growing, are soon
to become again a rich and fertile
agricultural region.
Drainage canals are rapidly drain
ing the swamp lands around the old
rice mills and truck farming on a
large scale is to be instituted there.
Buffers Island, one of the largest
in tire group, is already cleared 20
large extent and some blowing
of the land has been completed.
The rice mills, relics of the ante
bellum days are in decay and their
places are being taken by more
modern buildings suited 10 the uses
of truck gardening, later transpor-
tation will afford cheap shipping
rates to northern and eastern MAJ
kets as well as to Southern con-
suming centers, it is pointed out.
while foreign markets are not be-
yond reach.
The land of these islands which
has washed down the river from
all sections of the hill country of
die state is very fertile and is ex-
cellent for growing all varieties of
truck. Although tide wafer reach

salt marsh, the Altahamas flow

IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND ITCHES
APPLY SULPHUR

lust the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching, burning or
broken out skin, the itching stops and
healing begins, says a noted skin spe-
cialist This sulphur preparation, made
into pleasant cold cream, gives such
a quick relief, even to fiery eczema,
that nothing has ever been found to
take its place.
Because of its germ-destroying prop
critics, it quickly subdues the itching,
cools the irritation and heals the eczema
right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin
in place of ugly eruptions, rash, PINE
pies or roughness.
You do not have to wait for improve
ment. It quickly shows. You can get
a little jar of Rowles Mentho'Sulphur
at any drug store,
