All my love. Aunt Jennie.
There was no going back.

she had engaged, Fanchon, in
a borrowed coat and hat, sat

wheels along the shining tracks

tmpoSter, imposter.
But she argued that, in a
sense, she was doing no real
harm. Jennie CarstairS had
never known Evelyn Howard.
She could, therefore, never
have loved her. The girl was
literally nothing to her, save
someone Of her blood to whom
she owed a belated duty. If
Fanchon took her place, Fan
chon would, she vowed, live up
to it; she would give back
value received. for affection
and peace she would render
affection and duty in return.
And when time had passed and
there was no longer any dan
ger, she would go quietly
away and never bother any
one again. It was not on the
cards that Evelyn would live.
Letters and Photos
She though Of Evelyn dying,
with no one Of her own about
her, and her heart CONSTRUCTED
with an agony Of shame and
terror and self, loathing. But
she had spoken: or rather, she
had kept silent. It was too
late. too late.
Evelyn would dye, without
recovering consciousness. Jennie
CarStairs would be spared much
unhappiness and self reproach;
and she, Fanchon, would find,
for a little time, at least, q
measure Of safety and peace.

There were the photographs Of
Evelyn's parents; there were
snapshots Of, Fanchon thought;
the place in which Evelyn must
have last lived and called home.
There were also snapshots Of
the school in Honolulu and the
one in San Francisco.
It would not be hard. It
would be more or less natural
that Evelyn would not speak
much to the people who had
cast them out. AS far as Ha-
waii went, Fanchon was on per-
fectly safe ground there. She
studied the letters, the photo
graphs.
Suddenly a thought reached
her, stopped her heart for an
instant.
Evelyn must have written her

should be alike. Fanchon fixed

The War of the Sexes

When men made play

preserve the outward appear

Now a man no longer reverent-

he doesn't even take a girl
tenderly in his arms. He just
grabs her around the neck, and
BESTOWS a kiss upon her
almost defiantly.
He no longer fights for her

with all his mind and with all

He no longer pets her with

She had promised.
At the first big city they
reached, reporters boarded the
train and invaded her drawing
room. Eager, ck-haired boys,
one lean, Sallow man and a
couple of pretty "Sob sisters"
They apologized for their intru-
sion, but told her that in the
interest of the news and public
they must have her firsthand
story of the accident.
The Press Interview
She knew that it was safer
not to antagonize them. They
perched on the seats, on the
arms Of things, even squatted
on the floor, listening avidly.
The train stopped over there
for half an hour. During that
time Fanchon told them what
she recalled Of the accident it
self. of the first part Of the
flight. EameS, one Of the re-
porters said, had been an i'm
portant man in his town. This
was being played up in the
press. The pilot, too, McKlnon,
for he had had a war record
and had also been pilot on a
successful flight from England
to Australia. He also was news,
said the reporters, not callous,
not unkind, simply seeking to
feed their master, the insatia-
BILE press.
And Fanchon herself was
news. By now they all knew
that Evelyn Howard was a
niece Of Mrs. Carstairs--the
Mrs. Carstairs. That was news.
And news, too, the wire that
reached her at the same sta
tion at which the reporters got

ened her. Collin was Mrs. Car

Woods at present, she learned,

secretly-but now they openly
defy them. The war Of the
sexes is no longer a matter Of
subtle strategy or a battle Of
wits. It is a wide-open street

struggling for conquest, and
every man is fighting for his

that firmly in her mind. She
must remember.
She remembered something
else. with an effort. Remem-
bered that among the small
pieces of luggage Evelyn had
brought on the plane had been
a little portable typewriter. It
was quite within reason that
her letters to Mrs. Carstairs
had been written on the ma
chine. If so, so much the better.
Dreaded Meeting
She thought Of the meeting
that lay ahead Of her. She
longed for it, and yet shrank
from it. But no great display
of affection on her part nor on
the part of Mrs. Carstairs would
, be necessary or even reasonable.
For they had never known one
another.
Yet Jennie Carstairs' wire
had been affectionate in the ex-
treme. Due. thought Fanchon,
logically, to the situation, to
the tremendous peril in which
she knew her niece had been
placed. It was natural enough.
Natural, too, that she would not
ask EVELYN to talk much Of the
accident.
Half q dozen times before she
reached New York, Fanchon was
seized with a frantic desire, born
of sheer, blind panic, to get out
at the first best station, to run
away. to hide, to find a ship
that sailed for far countries and
alien seas, to run away from
the old life of Fanchon Mere
dith, the hunted life of Miss
Smith," the self chosen, stolen
life Of Evelyn Howard, who was
going toward safety, toward
people who cared, toward free
dom.

Your Health
and Diet
By DIR. Logan Clendening

Fruits, like vegetables, are re-
garded as natural foods. Nature
, certainly intended them to be
eaten; the only way fruit trees
and berry plants can spread
over the earth in a state Of ma
ture is by having the seeds car
ried inside the bodies Of ami
mails and deposited in the de-
jecta at a place distant from
the parent plant. To do this
nature has to make the fruit
surrounding the indigeStible
seeds luscious and attractive.
Fruits Are Praised
These considerations have
caused fruits to be praised to
the skies for their health.giving
qualities. Long before oranges
as preventativeS Of high blood
pressure were heard Of there
was hackneyed saying, can ap-
pie a day keeps the doctor
away" Fruit and berries are
certainly essential parts Of any
modern dietary. But it should
be said also that they are not
complete foods.
Fruits are naturally magnifi-
Gently clean. Their skins or
rinds keep bacteria and germs
out. For this reason they are
easy to preServe-I mean in
storage-in a natural state.
Secondly, like vegetables, they
star in b'llk.
A Bulky Commodity
They are not economical
foods in the sense that it takes
a great deal to supply a days
energy, And the very fact that
they are bulky prevents them
from being compact, concen-
trated foods like eggs. # you
had to carry a weeks ration on
your back on a walking tour,
you would pick milk chocolate
bars rather than apples.
Nor are they balanced. They
have almost no protein, and
few of them (avocado pears,
raisinS and dates are the eX-
ceptions) have even mention
able quantities Of fat.
Good Mineral Content
Most Of the fruits have good
quantities Of the necessary min
erals calcium. eSpecially-and
also iron, sulphur and phos-
phorIls.
Unbalanced and incomplete
as they are, they have certain
qualities in which they are
strong. Their carbohydrate is
in the form Of very simple
sugars-fruit sugar. or fructoSe,
mostly, and maltese and glu-
coSe. These substances are
high-powered energizers-high-
test gasoline.

Yet even thought it may be true that cleanliness

at this time to consider regulatory statistics just pre-

Dr. Mosher finds that state regulation is not the
finished and perfect thing we have been taught to
believe by those who oppose federal assistance in

Five states he reports, have no control whatever

have only partial and inadequate control. Eleven
states do not regulate water utilities and two others
regulate them only partially.
Hydro-electrc generation is ignored by ten states
and inadequately regulated by four others In fifteen
states there is control heating utilities and
three others have only partial control
The situation is lamost as bad in respect to gas
