 Here, Syd, realized that had been putting off the fatal question. I had been starting Ruth on her feminine philosophy simply to keep her from telling mo that she thought l should go to Leslie and tell her the whole story.
 Just as l had screwed up courage enough to tell Ruth l would confess to Leslie that night she was called 10 the telephone, and I found that damned efficient press agent Of hsrs, Dick Summers. had sprung somc- thing new upon me. He had written Leslie a letter asking her 10 be one Of the patronsssss at reception given to Paula after one Of her matinee appearances.
 Leslie had consented 10 do this providing Ruth and some of her other friends would join her. The Summers individual was calling Ruth 10 tell her of the scheme. When Ruth came back to me she Eas almost smiling. I knew she considered fl quite d joke, and then her face grew serious again.
 T shall tell Leslie to refuse" ] yentUred.
 You will do mol hing of the kind" answered Ruth. ''it is one Of the best things that has ever happened to you All her friends siif so with her. and it will effectively atop q lot CT gossip"

Guiding Lights
 That's the idea" My brother-in- law laid an approving hand upon my shoulder as l stopped to the switch key, and then. as the motor started. he pointed to two or three tiny gleams of light piercing the fog long way in front Of us.
 Those ought to help you go taster," he said
 ''They will" I returned as l saw that the lights were advancing toward us. Queer how lights con- ing toward you will pierce the fog for you. when your own lights only hinder you.'
 "1 suppose they are blessing you also" he returned, as the light ad- Nanced, Illuminating the roadway SO that I was able to drive quite fast until We had passed the advancing car.
 They must have better lights than mine" I said enpiously as slowed down to a crawl again once the third and last of the adyanc- ing cars had passed, and the fog enveloped us again. seeming all the more impenetrable by contrast, ''or I suppose they are better drivers.''
 More reckless drivers, you mean" Edwin answered gallantly. But did it strike you that you were going good gait yourself as long as their lights lasted? I'll warrant you they slowed down as soon IS they passed you. Stop just second
 l obeyed him and he took his eyes from the road beneath him and looked back of us.
 They are all only few rods away, crawling around turn. which makes their lights visible. But" with quick change Of tone, that other car is hard on our heels again."

nent.
 Lynn, Mass, Aug. 27, 1912.
 have used Aliens Lung Healer for several years for colds and coughs and always found if very effective. l had d cold when I entered the army. which stuck to me in spite of all ] could do. After reaching France, ] was under the care of army doctors for two months, but continued to get worse. The cold had developed into a severe lung cough which cut like n knife and tho phlegm which l cough- cd up was streaked with blood. WAS pretty well discouraged and wished many times for my old reliable rem edy, Aliens Lung Healer. Finally wrote to friend in Lynn 10 send me two bottles by mail. When it came ] began taking 1t and 10 my great re- lief. began to improve at once, and before the first bottle was gone the cough and soreness disappeared and I began to feel like a new man. am now a well man. This statement may be hard to believe, but it can be pro- ven by reliable witnesses.

 SQ1P:
tBy Dr. Clifford c. Robinson) fBy Dr. Clifford c. Robmson) MARRIAGE AND HEALTH

The real education on the health Of
 the marriage state should be started i in early life by parents. If home, | health and happiness are 10 have their 1 true meaning in the coming genera 1 tions then sensible, heart-to- heart
 talks should be carried out between parents and children.
 Not only should parents do their part to advance the ideas of the mar riage relation in its bearing on proper health, but other urgent methods should be advocated.
 The vicious, satirical jokes that many public amusement places are a decided menace to public health measures and against the perpetuation of the better clements of the race. They should be banished as unlawful,
 If marriage should be disregarded as a law-abiding condition, and the noble concepts that now prevail re- garding il he given up, think what a loss in health conditions and increase in loathsome diseases would result.
 The creative impulse that links man and woman together for the nee- essary perpetnatlon of the race Is the highest duty of mankind. Nature docs not provide her richest health returns for eelibate habits The creative spirit arouses in the sexes desire for strength and fitness that means high est health conditions.
 Another strong pull for health in the marriage state is the great gain thst results from increased happiness and ideal home life. If the American home, with its up-to-date sanitary ideas it's provisions for Tightening the woman's work and the conditions that prevail for light, heat and ventilation, is not healthy institution, where will you find one?

The Dogged Pursuit Continued

So swiftly did the fox entelop us that we had gone little more than a mile from the place where Edwin had given me tke warning concern Ing the car behind US. when ] was compelled to throttle my engine down to it's lowest speed, put my head out al the side, and look down in order ,o see the strip of road along which we were travelling. By looking straight ahead, l could see nothing save 8 thick curtain Of white, rolling like waves in front of the windshield. given luminous beauty by the lights of the car but not pierced sufficiently by them for vision. A sudden jolt ing told me that the right wheels of the car had left the roadway. and l brought the machine to a quick stop, knowing that while there was no pre- cipitous plunge into the sea 10 be feared on this side Of the road as there WAS on the other, vet there were plenty of places uneven though for an overturn of the car
 4 Dangerous Road
 It was characteristic that, in this emergency. neither of the Braith- waites asked the irritating question, What's the matter?" Harriet kept silence. having the common sense to know that she could aid best by talk ing care of the children, but Edwin spoke quietly.
 What do you want me 10 do?"
 Put Robert back with the others, and take the curtain off that side of the car. You'll have to watch the roadway on that side and tell me when I'm not going right"
 He had lifted the boy from his lap. before l had finished and turn ins around deposited him in the tonneau. where I heard Harriet, with unruffled efficiency. telling him where to tuck himself into the al- ready overcrowded space. Then he turned to the window curtain, and in another few seconds had it off and rolled into compact bundle,

And he would know how to conduct the argument so as to pre- vail against the place-sec<ing inso- ience of Buckingham. But, as it was he was forced to realize that he could do none of this without per- haps dooming Holes and bringing heavy censure fruitlessly upon him- self. ''Oddstish," the King would cry. Do you tell me to my face that you prefer the son of regicide to the friend Of my friend?" And what should hc answer then?
 He lowered his eyes. The commits sion which was the subject of this discussion lay there on the table be- fore him, tho space which the name of Randall Holes was intended to oc- cupy still standing blank. He was defeated, and he had best, for tho sake of Holes us much as for his own, accept the situation without further argument.
 He took np a pen, dipped 1t, and drew the document to him.
 Since you have His Majesty's au- thority, there can be, of course, no further question:
 Rapidly, his quill scratching and spluttering across the sheet, he filled in the name of Sir Harry stanhopc, bitterly considering that he might as rrofitably have filled in Mel Gwynn's. He dusted the thick writing with bounce, and proffered it without an- other word. But his looks were heavy.
 Buckingham rose, smiling. and Sir Harry bounced up with him, smiling also. For the first and Inst time in the course of that short interview Sir Harry spoke.
 Your grace's devoted servant" he professed himself, lowing and smirk- ing. T shall study to discharge my cffice creditably. and to allay any aualms my youth may leave in your grace's mind"
 And youth" said Buckingham, smiling, to reassurc Albemarie, lis fault that time invariably corrccts."
 Albemarlc rose slowly 10 his feet, and the others bowed themselves out of his presence.
 Then he sat down again heavily, ] took his head in his hands, and softly loosed an oath.
