The gilt hands of the French dock on th* mantelpiece met beneath the smiling face of the eupids and a chime rang out and mingled with the sound of music Mrs. Barrington dropped her hands with a discordant crash on the keys "Tony, it s 12 o’clock!

Anty Drudgt- “Yon poor unfortunate victim of the old time washday habit! Why won't yon wash in the Fels-Naptha way. and strike off the chains that bind , you to the steaming washboiler and the all-day hard rub-rub on the washboard?” If you really believed what we say about Fels-Naptha you would use it, wouldn’t you ? But you think that it’s too easy — impossible. Many men are wealthy to-day be cause the majority thought the same thing about the telephone. To you boiling seems necessary to thorough cleansing. With soaps of the old sort it is. The clothes must be boiled in order to get the dirt out by rubbing. Incidentally much of it gets rubbed in. Fels-Naptha separates the dirt from the fabric in cool or lukewarm water. Once separated it is easily rinsed away. But you must remember that Fels-Naptha is nude to be used in cool or lukewarm water, summer or winter. Get Fels-Naptha to-day and follow directions on red and green wrapper. t maid.

M»s Barrington sat down She was too exhausted to follow out the suggestion the man had made. For the moment she could not even think. She was simply a creature of aching limbs, oppressed by an immense weight of weariness, her mental vision blocked by a great black wall of sea r Presently, however, mechanically she commenced to strip off her Jewels About a half hour afterward, alarmed by the absolute silence In the next room, she went in. The room was in darkness. With trem ulous fingers she groped for the switch, her eyes searching the room anxiously for the man. She saw where he had flung himself, full length, on the lounge which flanked the fire, and fear stirred in her heart lest, perhaps, he might have killed himself and be a body of death from which there was no deliverance. But the man was not dead —he was asleep. The shaded light showed his upturned face as peaceful as a child's. With a swift shudder of remembrance, Mrs Barrington turned away. It was only about 1:30. too early for him to attempt to escape Let him have his sleep out She sat down beside him to watch, as a shipwrecked traveler might watch by < corpse he could not bury for sheer Mr lest the birds of prey should . tear it to pieces before his eyes. Continued Tomorrow. : : : What Dame Fashion Is Offering : : : LA Cor set I ess Dress By OLIVETTE. THIS is a new autumn model, the slip-over dress which has neith er buttons not button holes, nor hooks nor eyes, nor clasps nor buckles. The dress is made of one piece with a girdle or sash effect, very low down near the knees, like the dress of a very small child. It Is Monsieur Paul Poiret’S idea of a practical fall costume. Every time Poiret gets out a new costume he bids the fashion world Stop! Look! Listen! For he has a weird and wonderful imagination, and his marvelous creations are usually more adapted to the beauties of the 4 Arabian Nights than to our every-day public. Poiret. who is one of the leading French dressmakers. Inhabits a lovely house in Paris, with a. wonderful and exotic looking garden. The house looks like a very elaborate setting for the first act of a comic opera, and th? beautiful young women who act as (•fashion models in the Poiret establisn ment are the picked beauties of the manikin world. The fashion season really begins in Paris when Poiret opens his salon' for the promenade of the manikins, and no empress, stage or real, ever trailed down marble steps over soft •and rich carpets with more utter dis regard to the sumptuous clothes she rvas wearing than do the gorgeous 'creatures who show off Poirot's fall and spring fashions A Regal Sight They usually enter one by one. sweeping in regally, wearing priceless fur coats over some new creation in evening gowns The audience sits in hushed and awe-stricken circle. The manikin never deigns to look at th’ humble figures of admiring women, usually from America. She brushes past them, like an,out raged empress, and only when ladies from distant cities flutter the leaves of their check twtoks. or carelessly drop a big letter of credit at her feet will the manikin pause and let them admire the gown or wrap for a few short and blissful moments. Having completed the promenade of the salons, the beautiful model goes back to the head of the imposing stair way. and. as if too tired to bear the burden of her costly fur. she lets the eldak fall up,on the floor and goes forth to repeat her walk in the costume worn beneath it. With the same magnificent disregard for the value of these priceless man tles each beautiful girl throws off her wrap and the pile at the foot of the stairs becomes a mound of satin, sable and ermine. Fifty thousand dollars lay in a heap on the floor when I last saw the promenade of the models. It was an Impressive sight, for the customers who had hesitated to order while the furs were still on the shoul ders of the proud manikins swooped down upon the pile, and soon every coat and wrap had found its buyer. An American. It was Paul Poiret whose admiration for the Russian ballet with its vivid Oriental coloring swung last year's fashions to the extreme of gorgeous Oriental luxury and riotous color. There is legend to the fact that Mr. Poiret is an American. At all events, he is a shrewd business man. who hides good, sound business sense behind a brown beard and an Inscrutable pair of SV OS Poiret realizes that this is to be n season where the practical idea will prevail over the fantastic. Efficiency Is the great word of the day among womenkind. Not that we have all become efficient, but it's a great thing to talk about, so the new Poiret model boasts of all those inno vations which the efficient modern woman considers necessary.

T OVE is exactly like war in this— •l j that a soldier, though he has escaped three weeks complete on Saturday night, may, nevertheless, be shot through his heart on Sunday morning."—Lawrence Sterne. IT is not an uncommon thing for those on whom Cupid has spent no arrows to boast that they are in vulnerable They are always too young to make that boast. Too young when the years have bowed their shoulders and pow dered their heads. It is no distinction to have escaped. To be incapable of emotion is so sim ilar to a mummy existence that those who have reached years of maturity and have never been "shot through the heart" have reason to be alarmed about themselves. There is something lacking—sympa thy. tenderness, charity, tolerance, hope, faith or the power to dream. Nothing to Boast Os. Such a one should not boast. It is rather a matter to be regretted and remedied. It indicates a sickness of the most sacred of the emotions. It indicates a lack of ability to love; a coldness that makes love turn away. Neither is it to one's credit to have, loved only once. The heart doesn't die with humilia tion at its first mistake. It lives to make another, and another, and that which is sometimes regarded as a “mistake” turns out to be the most beneficial and needful of experiences. The mistake lies in carefully cover- WARNING TO USERS OF SO-CALLED SUPERFLUOUS HAIR “CURES" Every woman must realize that even when a soft fuzz is removed by these so-cailed superfluous hair "cures,” which stimulate the growth after each removal, that it w ill only be a question of time before she will have to resort to the use of the razor, because even tually the hair will become so coarse that no preparation wflil be strong enough to remove It without ruining the skin. Why take the risk of disfigurement by using these unknown and uncertain means for removing superfluous hair, when there 1» such a safe method as DeMiracle—the one perfected, non polsonous and harmless depilatory that dissolves hair, thereby taking the vi tality out of it. consequently retarding and preventing an increased growth?
