The Only Thing That Counts
A Mystery Romance of Modern Bohemia
By the Famous Novelist
Carolyn Beecher
(Copyright, 1920.)
Chapter HI
WHEN Helen awoke the day had
fully dawned. She rose im
mediately and going to the
window took in long breaths
of the crisp morning air. For the
first time in years she felt that it
was good to be alive—just alive. She
saw a little boy looking up at her
and she nodded her bright brown
head at him. He smiled and she
threw him a kiss.
"He’ll think I’m crazy,” she mur
mured as she bathed. Her kitchen
ette yielded Coffee, rolls, and butter.
She dawdled over her breakfast until
the clock struck nine. What a won
derful morning! She nad heard that
the New York climate was not to be
depended upon, was full of vagaries,
full of whims, like a woman. She
hurried to dress. She would spend
this glorious day out of doors. She
had a little money left. Her rent
was paid for two months. What
i to hasten her work?
Naturally she went into the square.
. The green 'buses lured her, and with
s out knowing or caring where it went
she climbed to the. top of one. She
would ride until tired. It was one
that went up Riverside Drive. It was
her first glimpse of this wonderfu
street, and she enjoyed it to the full
—on one side the boats lying t
anchor or skimming through the
v/ater, on the other stately homes
and the thoroughfare itself
crowded with motor cars. She won
dered if every one in New York own
ed a car. But she wondered idly, not
enviously.
At Grant’s Tomb she climbed
down and, finding an unoccupied
bench, sat upon it to watch, the peo
ple. Early as it was most of the
seats were occupied. Nurses with
their charged, women and men who
loved the fresh morning air, little
children playing gleefully about, all
interested Helen,
She sat there until nearly 1 o’clock.
Feeling hungry, she asked a nice
motherly looking woman if there
was any place near where she could
get luncheon.
"That is Claremont on the hill. It
is expensive, but the food is good,”
the woman replied.
"Thank you,” Helen said, and made
her way to the restaurant.
•An obsequious waiter showed her
a table overlooking the water. It
was so lovely she almost forgot her
hunger. Finally she ordered a sim
ple luncheon. Then, her chin in her
cupped hands, she watched the life
outside. Once as she raised her eyes
she imagined the man at the next
table was looking at her with some
curiosity, but dismissed the idea. She
saw other women without escorts.
It was evidently au fait for her to
lunch alone.
When her luncheon came she de
voted herself to it. As she left the
Claremont a 'bus was approaching
and she ran lightly down the hill to
meet it. Once more she found a seat
on top and rode to the Square.
When she reached home it was mid
afternoon. Yet how really little she
had seen of New York. Just a
glimpse.
“It will take ime years—years,”
she said aloud as she removed her
street clothes for a comfortable
negligee. “And if I am going to
lunch in places like that I shall have
to begin to write. My money won’t
last long at the rate I have spent it
today" But she laughed gleefully
and went about her self-imposed
tasks blithely. Nothing could dam
pen her spirits. She was free!
Once more Helen stood in the open
window as the dusk closed in upon
her. Suddenly she turned quickly
and threw out her hands with a ges
ture of annoyance.
Some one had rapped.
'Come!” she called. Os course ft
was the janitress. Helen hoped she
was not going to prove a nuisance.
“Come!” once more she spoke, and
impatiently.
"Oh, I beg your pardon.' I have
made a mistake." It was the man
Helen had noticed looking at her at
Claremont.
“Are you looking for some one?"
“Yes, a friend of mine, an artist

Mr. Dodson Warns Against
Use of Treacherous, Dan
gerous Calomel
Calomel salivates! It’s mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomel comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson’s Liver Tone for a few cents,
which is a harmless vegetable substi
tute for dangerous calomel. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn’t start your
liver and straighten yqu up better
and quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick, you just
go back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you’ll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be
sides, it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson’s Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full Qf
ambition and ready for wqrk or play,
it’s harmless, pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it. —(Advt.)

I thought these were his rooms."
"I believe there was an artist here
—that he had the rooms before I
took them. Will you come in? I
will cal Ithe janitress. Perhaps she
can tell you where he is. The rooms
were empty when I came.”
“It wasn’t a he, it was a girl,” he
replied as he came a bit further in
to the room. “You are sure it won't
be too much trouble?”
"It is no trouble at all,” Helen re
turned in her sweet trlante voice.
She rang a bell and in a moment the
janitress, who was already devoted
to her new lodger, appeara,
“Mrs. Cook, this gentleman is look
ing for the artist who had these
rooms before I came. Do you know
where she went?”
"No, she didn’t leave any address.
1 guess the poor child didn't want
any one to know where she went. She
hadn’t sold anything for a long
while, And—
“ Did she owe you anything?” It
was the man who asked.
“Yes, a matter of two weeks or
so.”
“Let me pay you." He took out
his wallet, then turned to Helen.
“She belonged in the same town I
did. She was too proud to go home
and confess she had failed. Her
mother wrote me, asking me to look
her up, and giving this address. I
am sorry if I have troubled you.’
“It has been no trouble at all."
Helen wondered why she should be
so glad he had explained who the
girl was; his interest in her.
Chapter IV.
H-VING paid Mrs. Cook, the
man apologized to Helen for
his interruption, then turned
to go.
"Will you stay a whije?” she ask
ed on impulse.
A look of pleasure flashed across
his face.
“Gladly, if I may- My name is
Kirk Lansing.”
“And mine Helen Westfield.”
Helen warmed at once to her vis
itor. His manner, respectful yet ap
preciative, led her on to talk. He
fairly beamed under the unexpected
charm of the girl. He saw she waS
a lady, and clever. Unconventional,
yes. But in some way she gave the
impression that she was fully cap
able of caring for herself.
Kirk Lansing asked no questions—
a sure way to Helen’s favor, Helen,
calmly friendly, never effusive, told
him what she would. She had come
to New York to live. She loved it
already, although she had been here
but ten days. She was alone, yes.
And she was to write. That was
about all, but enough for the present
at least. Kirk knew she was unmar
ried. Mrs. Cook had called her
“Miss.”
He had complimented her upon her
apartment, and she had told him of
her delight in the view she had of
the square. She stood by the win
dow, he at her side, and pointed out
the fountain, the ’buses crowded with
home-going people. Helen looked at
the scene, possessed by a pleasure
which in her was always an ardor.
She had a shrinking from the ugly
or merely physicals facts of life, but
she was filled with a passion for
beauty, for movement, for color. And
this she expressed in colorful lan
guage as she stood looking out upon
the square.
They talked a little of her work —
that was to be. She was sure of suc
cess, showed it so plainly that he too
had a positiyeness that failure could
not touch her.
The tiny clock on the mantel struck
the hour. Five o’clock. With an apol
ogy on his lips Kirk Lansing arose.
“I have overstayed my welcome, I
fear. If I promise never to do so
again, may I come l —soon?” he asked
as he held out his hand.
“I shall be glad to have you,” Hel
en frankly answered.
She stood by the window until he
was out of sight. At the corner he
had turned and had uncovered his
head, standing just a moment, his
face turned toward the window. She
thought he had not seen her. But the
action touched her. She felt vaguely
full of desires—desires for things she
had missed so far. Somewhere in
the long years to come she would
find them waiting for her.
“I will know life, because I am
free,” she said as she turned away
from the window.
Suddenly she felt an eagerness for
work For an hour she wrote stead
ily. Then pushing paper aside, she
let her thoughts return to her caller.
“A year ago I should have been
afraid to say even ‘howdy-do’ to him,”
was her thought. It brought a smile.
What a creature of convention she
had been. There was nothing wrong
in being a bit friendly. He was a
gentleman, any one could see that.
She was glad she had told him he
might call, although she had not
dreamed of making friends with any
one so soon. At any rate it had ail
seemed quite natural.
Helen had thought a good deal
about Kirk Lansing in the days that
followed their meeting. She was
rather inclined to wonder why he
was so long in making the call he
had asked permission to make —
“soon ” But her deep satisfaction
with herself, the life that she had
chosen, brought her content. For the
present she was almost happy.
"If I could only forget.”
These words were often on her lips,
often in her thoughts. But even
memories could not make her actively
unhappj—as so often she had been.
She had made close friends with
the Irish janitress, or superintendent
of the apartment house. But so far
had met none of the other tenants.
The old Irish woman, garrulous but
witty, had taken her fancy. And be
. , ittitude, she hud
taken the girl straight into her moth
erly heart. To her helper she said:
“It’s a little pettin’ she’ll be a-uec ’-
in’ in spite of her brave words. Ail
alone in the big city. Didn’t I hear
her tell that foine young man what
paid me my money that she was
alone. It’s a husband and children
she should be havin’ by this time.
I’ll watch over her a bit.” , .
The watching over of the kindly
soul meant many a bit of extra clean
ing done for Helen, many a thing to
make life easier for her.
“She ain’t never done no hard work,
her hands is as soft as a _babys_
she had said when she had found
Belen cleaning the floor-
It was obligatory that Helen do the
work necessary to keep her rooms in
order, at least until she had sold an
other story. She now wrote diligent
ly several hours a day. In her mle
hcurs she explored New York, to her
the wonder city of her freedom.

THE COUNTRY HOME
CONDUCTED BY MRS.W.H.FELTON
Can You Help to Find Her?
A letter received from an earnest
writer who lives at Blanford, Fla.,
appeals to me, in behalf of a little
girl who has a mother and some un
cles somewhere in Georgia or Florida.
She and her two brothers were sep
arated from the mother after the
father’s death at Easton, Ga„ and
placed in a children’s home. The lit
tle girl was sent to Florida after
wards and taken in by some people
w r ho have also taken the two brothers
of the little girl, when she was
about nine or ten years old. The
mother had married again. This lit
tle girl, Ruby Johns, is now about 16
years of age, but she is reported to
be 17. She is said to be a twin to
one of the boys. The boys are named
Freddy and Ernest.
The boys are well liked by those
they live with, but the girl is not
so popular. She works in the field,
and she is not allowed a fair chance
for a girl. She is not trying to learn,
as they say, but she is kept out of
school lots, and she seems to be
really smart in her books.
The people who keep them are said
to be very poor, and these children
have not been legally adopted, but
the children go by their names. They
live on a small place of seven or
eight acres, to be paid for on tlTe
instalment plan.
The girl has been told that she has
uncles who are able to take care of
her, by some one who has known of
the children since they went, to Flor
ida. Some friends tried to send the
child back to the children’s home,
where she was first placed, but the
home tvould not take her again, un
less the boys were also returned to
them.
The people who took them are
anxious to keep the boys. The girl
does not wish to go back to the
home. She wants to find her people.
I am told her father’s name was
Johnes—(maybe it was Jones) and
that he kept a livery stable at Eas
ton, Ga Busy as I am with every
minute of my waking hours filled
with work or waiting for me to, do
the work, I hunted up the list and
names of postoffices in Georgia. I
found a list, made some years back
and there was a postoffice named
Easton in Fulton county, Georgia.
The kind lady who gives me this
information wrote once to the post
master at Easton, Ga., but the letter
lodged in the Atlanta postoffice and
was returned to her, so she thinks
the Easton postoffice may be discon
tinued.
The girl tells her friend that
there was another brother 'named
Charley or Carly and he was earlier
taken from the home and the im
pression prevailed that he went to
France and was kills— there.
The father was killed in a dispute
with another man and the children
were taken to the home to be cared
for and this is why so little 'is
known of their parents.
As the Methodist people have an
Orphans’ Home not far from Atlanta
and the Baptists have an Orphans'
Home at Hapeville, I have taken the
trouble to find out these things for
the sake of the girl’s future. As one
of the directors of the Georgia
Training School for Girls, an insti
tution that belongs to the state of
Georgia, and maintained by the state,

with 1 yard 32-inch plain material.

this Florida friend of this orphaned

thing worth while for her.

MARY MEREDITHS ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Here comes a lonely girl for your
best advice. You have helped so
many so I want you to please help
me. I am sixteen years old, weigh
125 pounds, five feet three inches
tall, dark hair and eyes. I am sun
burned. Please tell me the best re
lief for sunburn. What will take
dark circles from under the eyes?
Can you tell me where I can get the
song, “The Trail of a Lonesome Pine”
and “I Am Nobody’s Darling?” I am
ill-treated at home by my stepmother
as my mother is dead. I am in love
with a boy of nineteen, whom I love
better than anybody on earth, and he
says he will be happy without
me. Would you advise me to marry
him or not? He is well thought of by
everybody, please answer soon as I
am anxious to know as I have no
one to advise me.
A MOTHERLESS GIRL.
Lemon juice mixed with about
a quart of fresh sweet milk is ex
cellent for sunburn. Apply at
night before retiring. Use a large
piece of absorbent cotton and pat
the face and arms with it fre
quently. Let it dry. In the
morr.mg after bathing the face
in warm water, then cold water,
apply a liberal quantity of pure
cold cream (and good grade), rub
off after massaging well into the
skin. Then powder the face, to
protect it from the air and wind.
You should look well to your
general health, i regard to the
dark circles under the eyes. Get
plenty of sleep and outdoor life.
The songs can be gotten at the
song department of the Cable
Piano company, 82 North Broad
street, Atlanta. Try to get along
with your stepmother the best
you can, even if you feel that
she isn’t giving you a “square
deal,” for later on in life you
may have a chance to better your
condition, and after all it pays
to be kind, even to those who
often treat us very badly. God
is good, and He generally takes
care of those who try hard to
do the right thing. Do not marry
unless you are reasonably sure
you love the young man, and he
loves you well enough to work
hard to make your life happy.
Riches aren’t everything, and if
he is steady and true that is a
great foundation for a happy,
prosperous wedded life.
I am a boy eighteen years old com
ing to you for some advice. lam go
in £ with a girl in my neighborhood
who I am very much in love and I
*-f she loves me, for she goes
witht none other when I want to be
with her and she is about eighteen
years old too. Do you think that
we are old enough to consider each
other in the holy bonds of matri
mony? Let your answer appear in
next issue as I am very anxious to
have your opinion. Sincerely,

O Connor, M. P., was reminiscent
when he recently said: “If I were
dictator, one of my laws would
compel every boy to marry at
twenty-one and every girl at
eighteen. But the habits of the
older generation are not approved
by the genneration of today. So
cio.ogists say that they have de
termined that a man, under thir-.
ty, has not yet reached an indi
cative salary figure, that he
then knovus as little about his
actual capacity for providing
as did his twenty-one-year-old
benedict predecessor. But vou
might try the bonds of matri
m°ny. Do your honest best to
wards the girl you love and I’m
sure you will be happy.
lam coming to you for advice. I
am a glr l nearly sixteen years of age
ha«b V A r n y S ?? a11 for , m y a * e - There
has been a boy nearly nineteen years
old going with me nine months. He
mJ S tA h^J°nt S me . dearly and wants
h lm Put his arms around
me and kiss me, but I won’t let him,
so he put his arms around me anv-
One time I did not get angry,
but told him not to do it any more.
I do right? He said he didn’t
do it for fun, but because he loved
me. He says he don’t believe I love
him or I would let him kiss me Ad
vise me what to do. He has told sev
eral he loved me. Thanking you for
all the advice you can give me. Re
spectfully, ROSEBUD.
Keeping a man from kissing
the girl he loves, and whom he
knows loves him, is a hard job.
It is like keeping flies from the
molasses pot. But all the same,
do not be too generous with your
kisses, for often it drives a man
away from a girl. He feels that
she is too easily won. And every
man has enough sporting blood
in his makeup to fight for the
prizes he wins. It is much more
exciting and adds zest to the
game—even if it does happen to
be love.
Here comes a troubled little girl
with an aching heart asking you for
your advice. Please tell me best.
I am so unhappy-. Am twenty years
of age, in love with a boy of twenty
three years of age. We love each
ojher more than anything in the
world and are engaged to be married,
but my parents do not v Ant me to
keep company with any boys, and
when this boy calls they 7 always say
something about it. He is an ex
soldier, was in the world war, did
his “bit.” After he has returned
from overseas he has changed so
much, but, thank God, it was for the
best. He works a long distance from
my home and I am forbidden to cor
respond with him. They haven’t
anything against this boy, as they
do -not want me to marry any one.
Now please tell me whether you think
it best to ask their consent to the
marriage are not. I can never be
happy without this boy. Do you
really believe I should give up all
my hope of happiness just to please
them? Is a nice ruby ring suitable
for an engagement ring? Please,
Miss Meredith, give me your advice.
“LITTLE BIT.”
It is rather a hard thing to
do, to choose between your par
ents and the man you love. Nat
urally, you love them well
enough to want to please them.
But on the other hand, they seem
very selfish, and unfair to you.
Love, and marriage, is a natural
law, and parents are wrong to
want to mar the happiness, of
their children, without a very •
great reason. You are old
enough to have some judgment,
and you should have young men
friends. It is only fair. If this
young man is worthy of you.
And there isn’t anything against
him. I see no reason why you
cannot continue corresponding
with him. Perhaps he will wait
for you another year. You will
be free, according to law, at the
age of twenty-one, and can mar
ry whom you please. Ruby rings
are just as acceptable as any
other, if the one who is giving
it cannot afford a more expen
sive oile, such as a diamond
or rare pearl. But it is the
sentiment, after all, which
counts. And it is much sweeter
i to wear a ring of simple de
sign, and inexpensive than to
have one’s prospective husband
go deep into debt to buy a dia
mond ring just to be fashion
able. Or to keep up with some
one else.
Here comes a lonely girl of 16 to
you for advice. Am I old enough to
have boys to call on me? There is
a boy whom I like very much, and
he always smiles at me. Don’t you i
think it would be all right for me to
go with him. What should I say
when he comes to the door? When
he goes should you tell him that I
you had a nice time and for him to ’
come back. Hoping to see this in
print. BROWN EYES.
Yes, you are old enough to be
gin having a few boy friends.
The boy you mention must like
you—find you very pleasing or
his smile “would come off” occa
sionally. I see no reason why
you cannot have him call to
see you, provided he is a nice
boy, and you know who he is
and where he comes from. Be
polite, w-hen he comes to the
door, and ask him in. Ask him
to bav® a chair, xalieva Uua
; his hat, and then mention some
little thing of interest .to you
both. Be sure and make him
feel at ease. When he is ready
to leave, accompany him to the
doo’ say you enjoyed having
him call, and you will be pleased
to see him again some time. If
he wishes to visit you again, he
will then mention the afternoon,
evening, and hour, he would like
ti> call, if you haven’t any other
engagement.
Dear Miss Mary: I am coming to
you for advice, but not at all about
boys. Can you tell me where I can
get something to whiten my skin?
I am thirteen, years old, and weigh
77 pounds. Can you tell me how to
gain more flesh? Will velvet hats
be stylish this season? BLUE JAY.
Now, don’t you be foolish;
little girl, and start putting
something on your skin, except
a simple remedy, because if you
do, by the time you are eighteen
your face will be full of large
pores and then you will have a
hard time sure enough. Diet is
a great thing toward clearing
the complexion. Avoid greasy
meats, and too much starchy
food; eat as much fruit as you
can get, particularly apples. An
apple eaten every night before
retiring is excellent for the com
plexion and other causes. Leave
tea and coffee alone, and drink
a glass of water each hour
through the day. That is the
best remedy of all. Velvet hats
are very much the fashion as
well as velours and cloth hats.
CHRISTMAS
Is Coming!
Here Are Some Tri-Weekly
Journal Suggestions for Mak
ing Simple, Inexpensive Gifts
at Home.
For Handkerchiefs
A dainty handkerchief box is made
from a shallow candy box. The lid is
covered with sheet wadding which is
glued in place and covered with satin
or taffeta. The bottom edge is fin
ished with ribbon. The box is
trimmed with lace, little ribbon
roses and a bow of ribbon that cov
ers' half of the box.
Pillow Cover
A practical pillow cover may be
made of yellow linen with a dia
mond of the same material hem
stitched to the center. At opposite
corners of the diamond, colorful flow
ers or butterflies of cretonne are ap
pliqucd. The cover can be finished
off with a black silk cord.
A Simple Gift
Little sachet bags make an accept- 1
able gift. Fill three little square |
bags of delicately colored silk with
cotton and sachet. Tie them with an
other colored ribbon and finish with
a bow and tiny ribbon roses, match
ing the bags,
New Handbags of
Painted Leather
Some novel bags that are being
shown appear to be made of beads,
although they are really of chenille
embroidery done in allover designs.
Other bags are of painted leather
and brocaded silk.
For Guest Room Door
A thoughtful touch in the fur
nishing and decorating of the guest- I
room is the addition of a knocker
on the door. There are many quaint
flowered ones designed, which are
as dainty as they are practical.
Box for Overshoes
A handy place for overshoes is
a box underneath the back door- .
step. The boards from the step may '
be taken up, cleated and hinged, |
and a box to fit, placed beneath the
step.
