Drake glanced at him as they passed against. a lighted window. It was a fat little man. A roly-poly little red man. A battered cheesecutter cap squatted him down solidly upon gray-shot red curls above rubi- cund gray eyed face. The battered cap looked as if 1t were new. bat tered by design for better comfort: which 1t was.

 T told her she ought to try to make her forget that unhappy epi- against her. And what do you think she said to me: Shut up, you fool"
 Little Marquise, I laughed. l laughed heartily. Jack was furious; not only furious, but hurt. That, of course, made me angry.
 Tt is easy to see, Jack, that you were not. in Pittsburg at the time of the trial" I told him. Why, the judge when he sentenced her hus- band to the penitentiary for life said that he was sorry that he could not send her Up also. He told her that he thought she was more guilty than ths man who had actually done the killing. It made g. great sensation at the time, Jack. Lots of people thought the judge had no right to say this, but was glad that he did. It labeled the woman in such way that she will never be able to ruin another man. No other man will have the temerity to pay any atten- tion to her"
 There's where you are mistaken, ] dear." Jack said rather sarcastically Jimmy Condon Is head over heels in love with Mabel Carter, and strange ss it may seem to you and Sally .Atherton and all the rest of the kitty-cats, I can understand it."

 We quarreled. People quarrel over such little things. What difference did it make to us what all the other people in all the rest of the world did. But we quarreled about it just the same.
 I can't write you any more, little Marquise, for Jack has gone back to his office in Pittsburg, and things are just about the way they were before he came down. You may be glad you did not marry your kingly lover, my dear, for then you would have learned quite thoroughly what many women have learned to their cost.
 Marriage is g. new experience and 1t may be great thrill, but it is very different from love. Sadly,

If the body can not stand cold water, begin by taking baths in luke-warm water and have 1t less warm each day, as the body gradu- ally becomes accustomed to it.
 Rub the body vigorously while bathing. Too vigorous rubbing aft- CT the bath is not wise. especially if one does not remain in very warm room afterward. Vigorous rubbing causes one to prespire and then to become chilled after dressing.
 If g hot water bath is taken, end it with rinse in cold water. And one should feel neither too chilled nor too warm after leaving the bath.

-FABLEs ON HEALTH-- COLD WATER BATHS

If you want good health, a clear complexion. and a well-toned sys- tenn, take a cold water hand bath every day of the year, MT. Mann of Anytown was told by the family doctor.
 About half the accumulated im- purities of the body must be thrown out through the skin. An unclean skin often is the parent of much illness, and many so-called contagious diseases.
 The water=for a bath should be of temperature to suit the body. If person is of vigorous constitu- ton, or wishes to be, the water should be cold.

 The man whom my mother-in-law had called "Steve" wasted no seconds in answering the ultimatum I had given him.

 "Ihe Eyes of Love-"
 'Not likely" he retorted. 'since I've been stalking the mater out here. I'd just been slipped the in formation that you'd moved down east somewhere, and hadn't had time to make any further inquiries when I spied my beloved parent out walk ing and hurried to her side. The eyes of love, you know"

Los Angeles, July l5.-Here's a
suggestion from woman, Mr.. Chief
Of Police. Try it out on your street
corner, and see how it works!
1t comes from Miss Blanche Pay
co, now Of Los Angeles.
Have women traffic cops" says
she. This would be a solution for
the congestion problems all the large
cities have to face. 1t would work
to the advantage Of driver and pedes-
trian alike.
Miss Payson represents six feet
and six inches of sturdy womanhood.
She served as traffic officer in San
Francisco during the World Fair.
She, backs up her suggestions with
the following arguments:
women do not lose their heads SO
easily as men. They do not burst
into profanity on such slight provo
cation. They are not so .dictatorial
as/men. Consequently, there would
be less frictioif between feminine
traffickers and officers.
"There would be more chivalry.
There would be natural courtesy
toward women and more desire to
help them make their jobs a success.
1.-THE sympathy Of other autoists
would be with the officer always,
whereas today usually the opposite
prevails. Women offenders would
know that winsome smile and
vamping manner would not be any
excuse for not keeping the law, nor
keep. them from the just conse-
quences ifAthey did.
Besides" she concludes, "there is
actual experience upon which to base
