I thought I neard voices. 1 thought perhaps you were having a battle royal with that little white rabbit of a maid of yours. It’s my belief you bully her horribly." A Woman's Wit. His new tone frightened Edith Barring ton-'this suave, rallying tone that he had come to use to her in the last few weeks since their return to England more than that one sharp sentence of accusation and suspicion had done. She strove to fall into his humor. ■ How odious you are, Anthony! I never bully any one. I have you to do all the bullying I was busy writing letters.” As she spoke she settled herself before her writing table, making ostentatious play of paper and pens in the hope that he might go away. You reserve al! the bullying for me, eh. little woman?” He bent over the back of her chair and kissed the nape of her neck. •Come, put away that silly writing. I want you to talk to me. Like Hamlet, my little body is aweary of this great world. Come along; we ought to have a fire that we could look at and see pic tures In - it's as cold as winter today. Feel that!" He laid his fingers softly against her cheek. She drew away with a pettish exclama tion of annoyance. "Anthony, what a brutal thing to do!" Barrington laughed. Poor Edith, saint and martyr!" He .aught her face in his hands and turned ft up to him "What’s the matter? Has Master Philip been giving trouble? Why. has nothing gone wrong? Then f be lieve you are developing a temper, my Edith- a tendency to be sternly nipped in the bud." • She rubbed her cheek against bis hand. "I am sorry, but you do worry me so. You take such extraordinary notions into your head about hearing voices—you'll, be seeing weird things next—green cats and blue snakes." She spoke softly, that her wqrds might not carry to the man in the next room. Every sentence Barrington spoke fell on her heart with a hideous sense of hu miliation She felt indeed that if Tony then and there were to discover the truth and kill her for the deception she had practiced upon him he would be acting in the only way possible consistent with honor. I assure you I beard what might be railed 'language' proceeding from this apartment." He had released her face • from his hands and was now standing upright by her chair. "What are you doing wasting paper? Women are like children they love to be scribbling on anything white and clean they see. Hal loa! What's that?" Edith Barrington started to her feet, as white as paper. A crash In the next room, as of some heavy falling object, drove the blood from her heart. Anthony Barrington darted a quick look at his wife, then, without a word, rushed Into the adjoining bed room. Edith followed him, impelled by that strange sporting Instinct to be In. at the death—even If it were her own death. The Search. The bed room into which Mrs. Barring lon followed her husband was empty ami of Immaculate tidiness: for Victorine. the little French maid who bad come over from Auteui! with the rest of the servants when the Barringtons returned to their house in Princes Gate, was the soul of order and neatness "Th- noise can not come from these rooms,' Edith heard herself saying, and h»r voice came to her own ears as from an immense distance.

It was a large and beautiful room, filled, like the boudoir, with Empire fur niture; the most luxurious, most beauti ful nest the imagination of Anthony Bar rington had been able to conceive for the woman he loved Edith's eyes wan dered over it. and each object seemed to gain an added beauty from ilfo fear | tha' so soon, perhaps, she must lose it. Barrington pursued his search method- 1 ically. He opened the great wardrobe, ' disclosing its wide, well-filled shelves. "Tony!" ejaculated Edith. "What are you doing? 1 most strongly object to your rooting among my possessions!" Barrington turned to her and spoke for the first time. "I am certain there is some one in this room." he said. "I am not easily deceived. Edith. I heard voices behind your locked door, yet you said there was no one here. Then comes a sound of something falling Things do not fall of themselves." He looked at her, his gray eyes cloud ed with suspicion. Edith commanded her voice with an ef fort. . "1 _ hope this Is not a sign of incip ient insanity ." she said, striving to laugh.

Hot Weather Cooking 'w'/K/m''''' Maßr k JRbft w. Fa I Al ■r ? ® \\ EL iEL \\ V $ \ .nr?. /7/Sfc ■'W ' " i LI tL l I PREPARING THE PAPER BAG. By ELIZABETH RATHBONE. HOT weather has brought the pa per bag much in evidence In the kitchen. No one likes to wash dishes at any time, but in summer the greasy pot and kettle presents such an objection that many a cook would rather go without eating warm food than to have to wash up afterward. With paper bag crockery there.are no cooking dishes to wash, and this fact makes the new way of cooking espe cially popular in hot weather. Last autumn. Soyer. the late chef of the famous Brooks club in England, announced that he had developed a new method of cooking. instead of using crocks and pans, be put the food to be cooked in a paper bag. sealed it. placed the bag in the oven, and in due time brought forth an exquisitely pre pared viand. First he was laughed at. then the housewife with a taste for experiments tried the new-fangled paper bag cook ery with some success. Now that hot weather has come, there is another reason for using pa per bags instead of pans and dishes to cook with. An Energy Saver. Paper bag cookery is exceedingly simple, and the cook who only has one of two people to prepare for finds this method a great saving in time, mate rial and energy. “• In cooking with the paper bag there is no smell and no waste. Portions for one or two people can be put into the hag and cooked without loss by evaporation. A great many people have thought that any kind of a paper bag would do, and have tried cooking in paper bags which once contained sugar or coffee. But the results were quite dis astrous. The bag burned up or the food spilled out. and there was a dis tinctly papery taste to anything that was left. You must have a bag made of mate rials that are absolutely pure and odorless, and it must be a bag that doesn’t leak Choose your bag accord ing to the amount of food to be cooked, and don't put a small quantity In a big bag. The hag should be placed in the oven. Any oven will do. If you are using a gas stove, don’t place the bag nera the gas jet. It should be at bag near the gas bag. it should be at Cured By a Native Herb On board a vessel bound for India recently a man was bitten by a poi sonous reptile; both the ship doctor and a famous surgeon failed to con trol the poison, fast spreading through his system. In a day the vessel reached port. An Indian medicine man was sent for, who produced a native herb which quickly allayed the poison, and the man's life was saved. Roots and herbs are nature's cure for disease That great remedy for female ills, Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound, had its origin in the roots and herbs of the field, tons of which are now consumed yearly in making It. Il • 1 least a couple of inches from the flame. After the food to be cooked is put into the bag. seal the hag by tinning in the top and fastening with the ordi nary clips used for typewriting paper, etc. A great many women use pins. Occasionally the pin is served with rhe food: so it’s better to use clips. They can be saved and used again and again. If you want to know when the food is done, open your oven door and prick your bag open with a needle, or tomb it to see if it is soft, according to the food cooked. As a matter of fact, ft is not very easy to overcook the food, and you are much more likely to have things underdone. • If you want to save time and labor and dishwashing, by cooking with pa llet bags, begin with something very simple; something that can't very well spoil. Take potatoes, for instance, if you use new potatoes, cut them in half; if .old potatoes are used, quarter them after peeling. Put sufficient potatoes for the number of persons, placing the potatoes in the paper bag: add a tea spoonful of cold water for each portion, add a little salt and 1 onio chopped parsley. Fasten the bag carefully with two or three wire clips; then put it in the oven, laying it on the broiler, if the oven Is hot. it ought to lake about 30 minutes to cook the potamcM. Preparing Eggs. Except when yon u'e using safer in a paper bag. the bag should In well buttered Inside \n »x<<’llpnt way of preparing eggs in a papet bag is mark like this: First. liufbr the bag well, then pout into it about three table spoonfuls of thick sauce or the thick juice of canned tomatoes flavored with salt and pepper. Add i small lump of butter, seal the bag, which should be the smallest size, for one person only, and took for about ten minutes. Now. cut a hole in the center of the bag and break into this hole one entire egu. Put the bag back in the oven and cook for about three minutes. Serve in tig bag.

If desired, a little grated cheese can be mixed with the cream. This should only take about ten minutes to cook, even if the oven is sufficiently hot.

Here it’s the end of June and I haven't had a permanent posi tion .vet. In fact, most of those ( bed were so far from permanent that the start collided with the finish. I thought I had hit upon a good, easy job yesterday. Strange to say. I didn't have to ask for it either; it was thrust at me. I was passing a building that looked like some public institution, when a man rushed out and said ta me: "You look like a man that wants a Job." "My face is telling the truth then." 1 replied. "I’ve got a fine job for you.” the man told me. "There's s.l a day in it. and only about four hours work.” "Quick!" said 1. "Lead me to it.” ' You're hired," .said the man. "You can't start in yet. so just sit around hero till I call you.” Nothing could beat that very much, sitting in the shade with S 3 a* day coming in. I hadn't been there very long when a man with his arm ail bandaged came along the road. "Hello!" he said. "Doing anything?" "Yes; got a job inside." I replied. "It’s a snap. too. Three dollars a day and only four hours work." “Ah." said he meditatively, patting his injured arm. "Yes: it's a. snap, as you say." Then he passed alone on his w-ity. Presently along came a man with one of his legs all.bound up. He walked with the aid of a crutch. "Seen anything of a fellow with his arm in a sling?" asked the new ar rival. "Yes." said I; "he went down that way." indicating the direction he had taken. The man with the bandaged leg looked at me meditatively. "Looking for a snap, are you?" he in quired.

"Sure." said he, "and you get $3 a day for it.” Inside the boss gave me a lot of ant eggs and such junk to feed the' fish. Also lie gave me a large chunk of beef. "What’s the beef for?” I asked him. "Oh, that's for the alligator,” he an swered. A curious feeling came over me at that word. I couldn't tell why, butj tlie world seemed less bright than it* had been a moment before. However, I went around and fed all the fishes. Then I went to the big 1 concrete pool where the alligator was. i It looked as big as a tree trunk and about as Jnielligent.
