At a. first night performance in fieeut Turk, a beautiful young woman attracts attention by rising a?<d leisurely surreyiuy the audi ence through her glasses. Claver ing, a newspaper columnist, and hie cousin, Dinwiddle, are particu larly interested, Dinwiddie declar ing that she is the image of Mary Ogden, a belle of thirty years ago, who had married a Count Zattiany and lived abroad. He is convinced that this is Mary’s daughter, but all efforts to establish her identity prove futile. Clavering, determined to find put who she is, follows her home from the theatre one -night. Luck is with him, for she has forgotten her keys and he helps her get into the house. She asks him in and finally tells hint she is the Countess Josef Zattlany, a cousin of .Mary Og den's; that she had married a rela tive of Mary’s husband; that Mary is ill ip a sanitarium in Vienna. Clattering is skeptical. Though maintaining a strict aloofness from society, Madame, Zattiany continues to attend t’l, the first-nights at the theatre. Clavering meets her there a few. nights later and engages in spirit-, •d and friendly conversation. X (continued) “But that is very fine. ... I go to the matinee a good deal and 1 am often very bored. And 1 have been reading your current novels with the desire to learn as well as to be amused. I wish so much to understand the country in which 1 Was born. I have received much, illumination! It is quite remark able how well most of your authors write —but merely well, that Is. So few have individuality of style. And even in the best authors I find nearly all of the heroines tbo young. I bad read many American novels before the war—they earns to us th even then I found this quite remarkable preoccupa tion with youth.” "Well-'-youth U a beautiful thlilg—ls it not?" He smiled into her owh beautiful face. “But, if you will notice; many of our novel lits,> capable of real psychology, iifry their heroines over into their ieobnti youth, and you can almost hear their sigh of relief when they get them there.” , » ,'.‘,Yes, but they are sill) bahiud the ruropoan novelists, who tlud worn rajiotcft'Rt'.hg al any age, and thdir rr.tdiligvut readers agree with Voiibg Women have little pzycfiqlcgy.

I t'lilt'Z «e have a vague itjea that adjdnfttal love is rather indecent.” ‘ 4nd you--yourself?” She fodk at him cpflcufatlvely. "Are you too obsessed?" '!?' Good Lord, no. 1 was in love with a woman of forty when I UFs seventeen.” . ISl* eyes were glowing into hers rid. she demanded abruptly: "bo you, thiak I am forty?” ■••• Rather not!" . ‘Weil, 1 am young." site said, with a deep sigh of content. "But ilejbJt! I-see nothing, but I tee everything.” c Cluvering glanced about hltn.l Every neck in the boxes and neigh-: ,’utrlhg seats was craned. It was evident that the people in front— Mid no doubt behind—were listen-- Spg latently, although they could! have caught no more than an oc-t caslonal word of the murmured! conversation. K'yes across the: aisle. when not distended with sur-' prige, glared at him. He laughed softly. • "I am the best hated man in New York tonight." Then he ask-J pd abruptly: "If you wish to avoid! fashionable society why not »au goifiethlug Os this? It would be Quite 4 now experience and vary the monotony of books and plays.” "I may-7-somo time, if you will kindly arrange It. But I am not a stranger to the cognoscenti. In London, of course, they are re ceived, sought after. In Paris not so much, but one still meets them —the most distinguished. In Ber lin the men might go to court but: Got the women. In Vienna —well, genius will not give quarterings But eliis ao many gifted people •eem to come out of the hour geolais, or lower down still— Whether they are received or not depends largely on their table manners.” “oh, I assure you, our cog noscenti have very good table man nera indeed?" "1 am sure of it,” she said gia eloualy. “I have an idea f t America a table manners are the beat In the world. Is it true that one tever sees toothpicks on the table here?" r “Good lord, yes!" “Well, you see them on every aristocratic table in Europe, loy alty not excepted.” “One more reason for revolu tion- »Ob! Hang it!" • The lights had gone out. Clav ering half rose, then settled him self back and folded his arms. A man stood over him. "Just take my seat, Billy, will you?” he asked casually of the eminent critic. "It's only two back.” The eminent critic gave him a look of hate, emitted a noise that resembled a hiss, hesitated long enough to suggest violence, then with the air of a bloodhound with his tail between his legs, slunk up the aisle. “Will you tell me how you al ways manage to get one of these prize Seats?" asked Clavering at the fall of the second curtain. “Nothing in New York is more dif ficult of attainment than a good eeat —any seat —for a All thege people, including myself, haye a pull of some sort—know the author, star, manager. Many of us receive nptifjptions advance.” “Judge Trent lias a pull, as you calUt.’ “That explains it. There has been almost as much speculation on that point as about your own mysterious self. Well, this time I supose I must. But I'm coming back.” - • He gave Mr. Dindiddle his seat and went out tor a cigarette. The foyer was full of people and he was surrounded at. once. Who was she? Where had he met her? Dog that he was to keep her to himself! Traitor! He satisfied their curiosity briefly. He ha> pen cd to know Judge Trent, wh ■ was her trustee. His acquaintance with the lady was only a week old. Well, he hadn't thought to mention it to such friends as he bad hap pened to meet. Been too busy dig ging up matter for that internal column. Yes, he thought he coUli manage to introduce them to her later. She had brought no letters and as she was a Virginian by birth and had gone abroad in per chi I dli cod and married a foreigner as soon as she grew up, she knew practically no one in New York anil didn't seem to wish to know any one. But he fancied she was getting rather bored. She had been here for a month—resting— before she even want to the the atre. * Oh. yes. she could he quite animated. Was interested in e.v ervthlng one would expect of a woman of her In’olliftence. But the war hud fired her out.. She hud seen no oue but. Judge Trent until the past week. ... He kept one eye on the still re sentful Abbott, who refused to mi hatice his triumph by Joining hfs temporary court, and. Slipped away before the beginning of the last acl, Dinwiddie resigned his seat with a sigh but looked flushed and happy. "Poor old codger," thought Clav er lai as he received a welcoming smile, and them he told her of the excitement in the foyer. ■ “But that is amusing!" site said. ”,How naive people are after all, even in a great city like New York," "Oh. people as active mentally as this crowd never grow biase. however they may affect it. But sfinelw you had your triumphs in Europe.” “Oh. yes. Once an entire bouse —it was at the as 1 eu toted my box at the end of the first act. But that was a thousand years ago—like everything else be fore the war." ?‘Thht must be an experience a woman never forgets." "It is sometimes sad to remem ber it.” "Dinwiddie tells me that your couslu, who was Mary Ogden, once had a similar experience. It certainly- must be a sad memory .or her.” », "Yes, Mary was one of the great beauties of Europe in her day— and of a fascination! Men went mad over her—but mad! She took growing old very hard. Her hus band was handsome and attractive, but —well, fortunately he preferred other women, and was soon too indifferent for Mary to be jealous. He was the sort of man no woman could hold, but Mary soon cared as little about him. And she had her consolations! She could pick and choose. It wag a sad day for Mary when he left her for younger women.” “But I thought European men were not such blind worshippers of youth as we are?” "Yes. within reason. Mary was too 'hiellectual, too brilliant, too well informed on every subject that is discussed in salons, not to attract men always. But with a difference! Quite elderly women in Europe have Batons, but alas! they can no longer send men off their heads. It is technique meet ing technique, intellectual com panionship, blowing on old ashes— or creating passion with the im agination. Life Is very sad for the women who have made a cult of men, and the cult of men is the European woman's supreme achievement."

The reg ular police finally ranged them| selves on the side of the depubjic, Having experienced no • opposi tion here, the separatist leaders de cided to proceed with the taking over of other towns, leaving Aix La Chappelle in charge of a few picked men, to watch that tfie po lice kept their promise to support the republic. As an additional precaution, however, th epolice who were al lowed to retain their arms upon promising allegiance to the repub lic early in the day, were dis armed tonight, but were allowed to come on duty. Separatist night riders left this afternoon aboard a fleet of tour ing cars and motor trucks for Mun chen-Gadbtch, which they to reach at 4 o’clock tomorrow morning. After a proclaiming a republic there they will continue on to Crefeld and Benn, and then gO' further up to unfurl their flag at Coblenz, Mayence and other cities. * B - - - AT JAERCER AGAIN MACON, Oct. 22.—Announce ment has been made recently at Mercer that Gecrge Harmon, star on the Mercer basketball team of last year, will be back again this year and will play again with the Baptists.

The Most Critical Part of Your Anatomy and Physiology You are a wise man or woman if you understand your colon and keep it in perfect working order. Health, happiness, vigor and long life are the gifts which an active colon gives you—and a lazy colon takes away. But, back to our question:— What is your colon; where is your colon; why is your colon? Listen at tentively for only a minute and you may learn something that will add twenty years to your life. Your colon is the last five feet of your digestive canal. It is xrour sewerage system; your garbage can, so to speak. Keep it clean and you are well and happy; let it stagnate ' and it will distill the poisons of ■ decay, fermentation (gas) and pu : (refaction into your blood, poison- I ing your brain and nerves so that you are restless, irritable and blue; i poisoning your heart so that you I are weak, listless and lazy; I poisoning your lungs, so that your ! breath is heavy <oul; poisoning ! your stomach and digestive or ! gans so that you are bloated, belch : ing and uncomfortable with gas ; pains; poisoning your blood so that unhealthy; poisoning every part and your skin looks yellow, sallow and organ of your body- through your blood, making you look and feel old and ugly long before your time; making your joints and your back stiff and rheumatic, your eyes dull and your brain sluggish. By the perfect law of Nature, your colon should empty itself three times a day—within an hour after eating. Does your colon work that well? If not, it has lost its tone. What do we mean by tone?
