improved transportation facilities and
the increased number of privately

Store workers in the Southern part
of the country have already begun

stores throughout the country will
close entirely on Saturday. William

that the Saturday closing on that re-

nearly universal than ever before.
Many stores on other shopping streets
here will remain open Saturdays to
prevent the escape of the elusive dol

their workers a day of rest at other

CHAPTER III.
How It Happened.

Helena Ford was at the head of
one of the departments in Johns
Arm.
When he had first met her he had
actually liked her for the very quail
ties he now Cisliked, but that had
been two years ago.
He had liked her steadiness, her
quiet reasoning, the fact that ne
could depend on her. She was re-
freshing compared with the feverish,
hectic women Of the modern age.
She was not drawn to New York
night life aside from seeing a good
play occasionally. She was always
exouisitely dressed. She usually af-
fected dark blue or black with sheer
collar and cuffs. 1t gave her a fresh
look that set her apart from the
other women, and after John had
known her a year he had asked her
to marry him.
Her hair was short, but 1t was so
neatly arranged that at a distance 1T
did not seem to be bobbed. 1t was OF
lovely chestnut color and lay in loose
waves against her well shaped head.
Her mouth was beautiful, gen.
erously cut and tender. But her eyes
were her loveliest feature. They gave
the impression of having untold pos
sibilities Their color was almost in
definable, a shade between mousse
brown and gray. But it wasn't so
much the color AS the expression
that was so lovely. TO look into
them one had the feeling of seeing
into great depths.
Perhaps John had been drawn in
the first place by Helen's eyes.
There was SO much promise in them.
But after he had asked her to
marry him and she had consented.
there had been fairly conventional
engagement.
II Helena's eyes promised. they
never gave.
He discovered that she was always
exactly the same.
Their love making was conven-
tional, too. He kissed her when they
met, but there was never any re-
sponse in her manner. Man-like he
could not put into words what he
felt was lack in her. and so during
the time of their engagement there
had been a growing feeling of irri-
tation that had eliminated in the
knowledge that he did not want
Helena after all. He knew quite
well that she had not the slightest
inkling of this,< She was placidly
complacent and eternally agreeable.
She never quarreled. She talked
about their marriage quite calmly as
though 1t were the most natural
thing in the world, and John felt

Cows Milk.

While the statement is often made

cannot take even q teaspoonful of
cows milk without showing marked
symptoms of disturbance These most
often take the form of violent intes-

eczema develop. Sometimes an hour
or so after taking cows milk the baby
will break out with a rash or develop
a fever and a swollen face.
This type of child has a natural
idiosyncrasy against milk. Feeding
milk. however carefully. will do little
good. The child must be desensitized
before milk can be given in SUFFICIENT
quantities to do him much good. This
desensitization can be in two ways.
The baby can be fed q drop of milk
IN one teaspoon Of water the first day.
Next day he can be given two drops,

until the child can take the five drops

take dry milk in capsules. Boiled milk
