■THE QEOBGIAWS MAGAZINE PAGE “The Gates of Silence” A STORY OF LOVE. MYSTERY AND HATE. WITH A THRILLING ’OR. TRAYAI Os I IFF BEHIND PRISON BARS. ■ TODAY’S INSTALLMENT. Betty’s lover’ .lack Rimington Betty herself —weighed very lightly in the scales against Tony- Tony and little Phil —her 'husband and child. It wasn’t treachery— it wasn’t—it wasn’t! It was sheerest ne cessity of selr-jz eservation tr.s.:, demand ed her action—and not self-preservation alone—the preservation of Tony's happi 'S ness—Tony and little Phil. Husband and child! With that rallying cry she had crushed down all remorse, all sense of protesting honor, and had sat down and written her anonymous letter to the police, slipping out long, long after midnight through the sleeping house to post it In the pillar-box outside the lodge gates. Little wonder that she dreaded Io meet Betty's eyes. Lying there in the loneliness of the darkened room. Edith Barrington burst into tears —tears that drenched her cheeks and hands with a hot rain, but brought no relief. The bubble of her sophistry had burst suddenly. To what had she come? For weeks she had been living in an inner world of bitterness.’ and to that bitterness was added the sting of re morse. Until last night she had at least, been innocent, but now— The sudden opening of the door broke in on her thoughts. She turned hastily on the couch, burying her tear-stained face deeper in the shelter of the cushions. A Startling Call. “Mrs. Barrington.’ Are you here, m’m?” ,j It was the soft voice of Betty’s maid. "Yes." Edith Barrington’s first im pulse had been to feign sleep, but some Instinct prompted her to speak. ‘‘l am aere, Jane. Do you want me.?’’ “Yes. m’m. You're wanted on the tele phone. Name of Bradford." Bradford! Mrs. Barrington started from the couch. "I'm coming. Did you answer the call. Jane?" “No, m’m. Hodson." Edith could hear the sound of voices from the dining room as she slipped through the hall. Thank goodness there was no fear of interruption: for the next twenty minutes the family were safe at the luncheon table She went into the steward's room, where the telephone was, ano drew the door be hind her; the latch was defective, and the litle noise it made as she tried to close ft drowned the sound of the open ing of another door at the other side of ;he hall. Her hand shook as she took up the receiver, and her voice was un steady as she made her call. She dreaded the smooth-tongued, shifty-looklng solici tor more than she dreaded the man in prison. She had not forgotten a look she had surprised in his eyes the day he had net her at the police court when she visited Levasseur. Levasseur she knew, or thought she did his worst and his bet ( ter side. But this man was an enigma— f’she dreaded the potential blackmailer in him. She had never been able to rid her self of a belief that he knew something of that mysterious hush-money that lay still locked away in her jewel case up stairs—gloated over it, hungered for it. Amazing News. ’ "Halloa! Is that Mrs. Barrington?" Even over the wires the smooth voice was unmistakable. "Bradford speaking— James.. Bradford, " - "I am Mrs. Barrington. "Ah! With reference to our client, Mrs. Barrington. Have you heard—are you '.ware of what has occurred'.’” “No. To what do you allude?" "Well" —the far-off. tinkling voice hesi .ated—"Mr. Levasseur, it appears, has made his escape from prison.” "Escaped!” The receiver almost dropped ■rom Edith Barrington's hand. A vision ame to her of Levasseur. like a wild least in ambush, waiting to spring. “Yes. We thought it possible he might rave communicated with you?" Th’e statement was a question “Why should he communicate with me? I know nothing of his escape: nothing - <lo you understand? nothing." "Ah. thanks! I am sorry to have trou bled you in the matter, then. Good-by." They had rung off in Lincoln’s Inn Fields, but for a second or two Edith ‘I Barrington stood with the receiver in her hand -a woman incapable of movement. Then, when presently, with slow, -me chanical actions like those of an automa tion. she did hang up the receiver and turn, she recoiled with a guilty start. "Tony!" Barrington, who was standing in the doorway, came forward. Once again, as 'he looked at his smiling face. Edith bad hat disturbing impression as of a man whose smiles were worn now as a mask. "I’ve been looking for you all over the place. Edith," he said. "I brought your iuncheon-tray in myself but you vanished into space." ■T— | " Her trembling lips refused to frame any lei, any excuse.

The question beat itself out with the hammering of the woman's hurried pulses. It was not possible to know how long he had stood there: hut an instinct not to he denied told her that he had been there from the beginning. And what did he drink? Why had he not. as he usual ly did. down to the most minute trifles, questioned her as to the nature of the call that had brought her from the couch to answer the telephone? His silence oppressed her. terrilled her. as no questioning could have done. Fate's Pawn. Jack Rimington’s breath came quickly as he sank into the corner of the empty carriage into which he had swung him self just as the train-began to move out of the station. It had been a sharp run to catch this, the first non-stop train of the morning service from Weybourne to Pad dington. and at the end he had all but missed it, owing to the idiotic blundering of the police at the outside gate. "Fl! have a word to say to that fel low when I get back," Rlmington said to himself, grimly. Then his face changed. When he got back! There was something too problematical in that thought to be satisfying or pleasant. i'he morning was gray and cold —one of those grim mornings that fall some times by accident into a week of perfect weather !n its light Rimington’s face looked gray, too —amazingly aged, like the face of a man who has slept little and dreamed 111 dreams. As a matter of fact, Rimlngton. after his parting with Betty, had not even gone through the farce of going to bed: he had slipped up through the darkness when he got back to the Red House, thankful to escape any curious eyes or questioning tongues, to the long room under the roof that* had been his ever since he could remember the Red House at all, and paced the hours of the night out striving to find some clew to the labyrinth in which he and Betty found themselves. That the girl was entirely Innocent of any knowledge whatever of how Fitz stephen died be was more Than ever con vinced. and yet he knew that It was a conviction based on no legal ground If Mrs. Barrington had been a more accomplished eavesdroper, and had re sisted that Impulse of an Imperfectly sti fled conscience which had prompted her to flight after those first impassioned words of Rimington’s which she had caught, she would have heard what would have given the answer to many of the weary questions that had all night long knocked at the door of her heart.. Betty had met the challenging question her lover flung at her with" a great sur prise. "No. Jack. You see, it’s all so amaz ing. But. of course, it is strange’’ Why were you there?" And before the innocence of her eyes Rimlngton had felt his courage break. It wasn’t possible to tell her what, when he put the question, his impulse had been —to tell her that he had been there in Tempest street to work vengeance on the man who ruined his brother, and that: if she persisted in her threat of speaking of her presence there, he would forestall her by a confession as to his own. Instead, he had flashed out the truth: "1 was there—for the same reason as you, Betty, darling. I went to Tempest street to see Paul .Saxe.” And before she could speak he had blurted out, quickly: "Betty, listen! I want to know nothing v#m do not care to tell rne—l shall never want to know that; only it would be dis honest for me to pretend that 1 did not know so much, for Saxe told me so him self’’— . " ' ’ ; He had watched Betty's face flush and pale while he told her exactly the story while he told her exactly the story Saxe had told him, and asked her directly how true or how false the man's account of the matter was. Betty Furious. "He told you that?" Watching her closely, Rimington could see that the girl was furiously angry at the breach of confidence, and a spirit of esprit de corps bad urged bfln to the de fense of Saxe. “It wasn't an ordinary ireavh of con fidence. Betty. It was bee Wise your safe ty was at stake that he spoke. And he’s explained things—he seems your friend, Betty. But tell me. dear, can you remem ber. was it before or after you saw Sdxe that you encountered Fitzstephen?" "I never saw him" she blurted out, and Rimington knew it was Fitzstephen* that she meant, because she slopped short, in sore distress at this admission. "Oh, Jack, don’t question me-don’t— don't! Perhaps the memory- of it all will come back in the night, but just now it's all vague, like the detached''fragments of an almost forgotten dream." Continued Tomorrow. | The Right Road to Health By Annette Kellermann j , The First Dtp of the Season, and Some “Don'ts" Forjhe Bathing Girl \ Don’ts For the Bathing Girl. Don't boh up and down while clinging to a rope. This is weaken ing and the cause of many fatalities. Always wet the head. This keeps the body at an equal temperature. If you know how to swim, practice relaxing.'and you will not tire so easily. Exercise your arms on land, in your home, to give yon increased strength for swimming. Don't stay in the water after you get chilly. It's time to gq when “gooseflesh’’ appears. IN my last article on the bathing girl, I think I got her safely dressed and to the water’s eage. Today she takes her first dip I hope she won't scream and shriek or act coy and silly when her toe touches the water. Not that I'm a strong-aimed advocate of jvoman's rights and expect masculine fortitude of the girl who takes her first swim ming lesson. I believe first and last and all the time in common sense. As for rights I may say here. I’ve taken the right to beat many a man at my particular Specialty, which is swim ming. as you all know, and some day I expect to get a few more legaf rights, but that doesn’t worry me. What I am preaching is health, and if every woman was perfectly healthy with a sound mind in a sound body they would have the strength to sweep the world and the intelligence not to want to. The healthier a woman is physically, the better her mental baJ ance, and her power to consider the vital questions of the moment from all sides—her side and the other fellow’s side. So I'm for health! Well, here I am. like Silas Wegg. jsSweset ’• \' / 1 ■ -amkv.. ....... .•y \ 7 \ fF- / W \ 7 X*. i / X. • ■ / ~ . L .. I. I \ MISS ANETTE KELLERM'ANN IN HIGH DIVE. (Other poses in silhouette by Isabelle Jason, of "The Winter Garden.".’ droppin’ into politics, not poetry, when I should b£ swimming with “you bath -1 ing girls. I begged you not to scream, didn’t I? To me there is nothing quite so mad . dening as a lot of howling people in . the water. Everyone is bound to shout from sheer joy of water and sunlight and the sparkle of dancing waves, but please shout musically if you can. At some beaches nature, seems absolutely desecrated by the yellflrig mob around. While I'm scolding I might as well add that a bathing beach should be treated with as much respect as a park, and newspapers, tin cans and debris from picnics ought to be burned up or gathered together neatly for re moval by the caretakers, or thrown out to sea. Now I’ve said all the disagreeable things and with an easy mind I re turn to the bathers. At your American beaches, especially on the Atlantic where the waves are high, the rope cljnger is especially popular. . 4 1 don't believe in bobbing up and down while hanging to a rope, be cause it is often dangerous, the women especially standing just in the trough of the sea where the waves are strong, est and where the undeWow is most severe. Added to this a kind of hysteria com* blned with laughter and fright which weakens the holder’s grip on the rope and you have the material for many bathing accidents and fatalities. Learn to Swim. Learn to swim, that is my advice. Then If you want the fun of bobbing with the waves, hang on to the little further out, beyond the spot where they break. If you are torn from your rope anchorage you will f - ways have presence of mind enough to swim through the waves as they break over your head. I advise every woman who learns to swim to begin very early to dive through the waves. This gives het confidence in her own powers, and she will need this experience because it is always better and less dangerous to dive through a wave than to let it break over one. Begin with small waves to accustom yourself to putting your head under water. Some women, otherwise excel lent swimmers, never get used to this and wil never of their own accord get their heads wet. It is much better for the general health to wet the head by dipping It under water, as this keeps the body at an equal tempera ture. Os course, when the sun is hot you will burn and tan unless you pro tect yourself with a thick coating of face cream. Personally. I like to see a face tanned by the sun. with the glow of health in eyes and cheeks, but then I don’t freckle; otherwise I Should feel differently. Why You Got Tired. If you tire very easily when swim ming it is probably because you don’t relax and because you keep your spine f J / 11 L 7 f / \ \ nJ H / ky- // JI U w is® w / & mßk\ // absolutely Stiff. Relax relax: thit’s tiie only way you ‘wtll ever boa good swimmer. The water will keep you up: you don’t need to worrjj or to stiffen up trying to stay on top. The .more you relax, putting all your strength into your leg and arm move strong. exercise them on land, patiently inents, tjie better you w ill swim. If you think your arms are not and. systematically going through the up and.down movements with a rod or dumbbells, as I have already'deserited. The same with the lower lifnbs. If you feel that your “kick" lacks vigor, strengthen the-muscles by exercise on land. It isn't heroic to stay in the water after you are chilly or "g<aisi flesh" ap-, pears on your arms. Children, especially, should be care fully watched and no child should be allowed to stay in the water after its lips or finger nails begin to show signs of cold by getting blue. If the child has been taught to swim these signs won’t appear for a long time, but I am always sorry to see children half in and half out of the water shivering mA® V Isk\ v^Sf,/'■< > I I yat ■' Ik <dflnwG'*flLa ’mt Hrmtw 1 wOWS 'l' > 1 "jSSgrrw» ' i *^Bi» Hg!g ig INd &138 I Emile-THistle SODA I Best for biscuit —and all cooking.

"You have lived in a little town so long that your views of life have be come of its proportion. You need a wider, larger horizon. You must see More People! You must learn to know The World!” Broadening out is a painful process to those past 50, but Aunt Maria is docile, and made no complaint when, next day. her sister-in-law helped to squeeze her into a corset too tight, and I shoes and gloves too small, and a skirt i too narrow. "It seems." said Aunt Maria to her self. "that ho broaden out mentally it is necessary to grow narrow physically." Then she was escorted to a reception, and received her flrft lesson In broad ening out. One woman said to her: "Well, you ARE a stranger.” Another woman said to her: you been to the dining room for re freshments?” A third woman said to her: "Mercy! I wonder how long Mrs. Wintergreen intends to wear that blue silk!” A fourth woman said she had heard children could have the mumps as oft en as four times, and then Aunt Marla had a dab of pink ice cream, a slice of pale green cake, a cup of coffee, and went home. There wasn't any doubt that the broadening out process gave her food for reflection, for that night she lay awake many hours thinking of what she had seen and heard. There may be scoffers who would suggest that this insomnia was due to the coffee, but not Aunt Marla. Getting Out of Her Rut. She knew that she was getting out of her narrow little rut, and that was enough to keep any one awake. The next day she Broadened Out some more by going to a lecture on Art, which she could not hear because of the gabble of the women around her, all of whom had come to also Broaden Out. But she looked at the millinery In front of her. learned new ways for trimming hats, and realized that it had become optional with a woman to wear little hair or much.
