“The Gates of Silence”
By Meta Simmtns, Author of “Hushed Up"

<;uilt> ’ Already in imagination he
heard the newshnys shouting the verdict

was innocent, wrapped about by an inex
tricable net of circumstantial evidence,
prepared to tight to the last for his life
because of the ingrained instinct which
maHes men fight yet earing so little to
win the life that would cost so dear?
It seemed to Rimington that already he
had endured all that a man could en
dure that the future could hold nothing
so merciful as death for him These
weeks since his arrest at Paddington sta
tion had been like 'ears of anguish His
first acquaintance with prison life, the
unspeakable degradation of the Black Ma

of even his own solicitor in the matter
Perhaps he would never know now the
true facts of the < ase- but he knew
enough to realize that the dream of his
lifetime was gone, the bubble of hia hope
pricked and exploded The formula on
which his invention had depended was
lost forever, and the future of which he
had boasted to Hetty was so much fairy

craft and subtlety and secrecy 0 Even
if the formula "f his invention had parted
hands, he could never expect to reap any
benefit from It now
A Blank Future.
It whs this knowledge ’hat had laid
hope dead in Rimington s heart —the
knowledg* ’ha’ even If. by a miracle, he
should be acq’i’t’ed o' this charge brought
agi’.r.« f him he would find himself fac
*ng f h* world again penniless without

farther than ever from the w ? oman he
loved, freurv the girl who had plighted her
troth to him on that flay of high hopes,
in the punt on the Thames under the
overhanging trees.
He gave a little upward lift of the head,
unconscious that the movement was ob
served -and carefully noted by a half
dozen pairs of observant eyes: and. look
ing across the court, he saw the woman
of his thoughts entering it. in company
with his solicitor. His heart gave a great
bound, then seemed to stand still. Since
the miserable day of the magisterial in
quiry. when he had realized for the first
time how Irretrievably be was trapped,
he had not seen Betty, save in those
dreams that tortured him nightly in the
brief snatches of sleep that were more
full of pain than refreshment. Now her
eyes met his across the court—far off and
distant as she seemed to him. he was
sure of that—with a message of love and
hope.
She was dressed In white, charmingly
dressed as though for a fete day. and
Rimington s lover's heart read a message
In that also. She was full of hope and
trust—she knew no doubt and no de
spair She was there today believing in
the triumphant acquita! of the man she
loved'
Rimlngton’s senses swam. For a mo
ment the court seemed to revolve mist
shrouded before his eyes
Thank Ged. Betty believed In him!
Thank God. her lips were sealed. Paul
Saxe had given his word for that—what
ever happened. Betty would not. could net
speak Paul Saxe had sworn that he had
made it impossible for her to speak, and
because of that Rimington. standing there
In the dock, felt that he could forgive
almost anything else to the man to whom
instinct told him he owed his presence
there that day. on a charge of murder.
I p in the crowded tiers of spectators
the heavily veiled woman had also seen
Betty enter, and the sight had drawn an
unconscious little exclamation from her
Iler voluble companion had turned sym
pathetically toward her at the sound
Feeling bad already, are ye?” she said.
"It is close up ere ave a sniff o' this

Thanks - I am all right I ,do.not feel

The timid voice at least was very far
from warm. It might have frozen a less
thick-skinned person than Ada Bryce, out
intent on enjoying a show, and such a
show, to its full

tn her faxe f or » moment For a little
spare of time the words of the prosecuting
counsel fell on deaZ ears
To Rimington. as he listened to the out
line of the case against him, it seemed
that in the hour and a quarter which it
occupied he, heard nothing new. It was
a recapitulation of the old facts of the
magisterial inquiry: the statement as to
the finding of the body—the alarm by
Saxe—the man seen in the uncurtained
room when the lights had flashed up sud
denly and been as suddenly extinguished
the finding of the weapon by which the
murder had been done, and the sensa
tional discovery on the white-paneled w-all
of the room of his own sign-manual, the
print of his hand stained by that acci
dental contact with the body during those
appalling moments th the darkness when
he had groped his way in terror across
the unfamiliar room.
'They will hang me on 'hat." he told
himself, callously, though no point had
been made of the, undoubtedly sensational
discovery of this print of a blood-stained
hand on the wall when the man Levas
seur had been arrested, possibly because
his Anger prints had not corresponded
with the marks on the wall, and the po
lice were so dead certain that, because
they had captured him red-handed, so to
speak, he was the man: yet Rimington
had been fairly certain the moment the
Impress of his own hands had been taken
st Brixton Jail that the copper cylinder
had registered the first definite charge of
his guilt.
And. after all. so long as Betty's name
was kept out of it. what did it matter'’

incisive voice of the K. C. who was out
lining the case againsi him with unan
swerable logic.

Getting On in Life
By THOMAS TAPPER,
The Proof of the Pudding
FEW people, so it is said, have it in
them to be a Lincoln or an Edi
son.
But how do we know this?
Who knows what any boy or girl
may be until the boy or girl has tried
in every way possible to find out just
what there is in he or she?
XV hen they tell you to be content
with the simple life, not to want money,
not to car® for the things that people
prize, do not be too quick to act on
this advice.
You do not go to bed at 5 in the aft
ernoon for two reasons:
First. You are not tired at 5 In the
afternoon.
Second. You- like to be up and see
what is going on in the evening.
The same wish holds good in life.
Do not shut yourself up in a narrow
and restricted way of living too soon.
Make up your mind that you have a
share in the good things of Hfe. (See
rules later on). This is like going to
bed early in the afternoon. You miss a
lot and you miss doing i lot.
Now, any one of us can have our
share of life's good things provided
(and here are the rules>:
1. We think about the work we are
going to do.
2. We think about the work we are
doing.
3. We think about the work, of a
harder kind, we want to do.
How the Rules Work Out.
This sort of a program acts in an in
teresting way—about like this:
1. It keeps you thinking.
2. And that keeps you awake.
3. And, being aw-ake, you know what
is going on.
4. And when you know- what is go
ing on. you are in a fairway to find
your chance.
5. And when you have found your
chance all the rest is easy.
6. Then you will have opportunity
and money; and if you want the sim
ple life, you can have that, too
But remember the simple life belongs
to the independent man.
Mr. Edison has money, and he cer
tainly makes opportunity. Yet he sleeps
only about four hours, and eats prac
tically less than any other hard work
ing man in the United States.
■ v lf he wanted to. he could have duck,
plum pudding and champagne three
times a day. Why does he not want
these things'? He can pay for them
The answer is simple:
He would rather get the work out of
Mr. Edison than put ducks and plum
pudding into him.

hS h ’*N'*? Me/
Anty Drodge Tells How to Make
Housecleaning Easy,
Mrs. Hardwork— “l certainly dn detest housecleaninc
time. H*ere Ive been scrubbing and scrubbing until
the skin is all off m .v knuckles, and I just can't get
the floors and paint clean.”
Anty Drudge— “ All the elbow grease in the world won’t
clean things if you use the wrong soap. G-et
Fels-Naptha and the grease and dirt on floors and
paint work will disappear like magic.”
Fels-Naptha is “better than an extra
pair of hands in housecleaning,
It makes dirt fly from walls, floors,
woodwork, linoleum, windows, porcelain
fittings and anything else that’s clean
able, just as it does from clothes.
No scrub-brush or hot water is nec
essary, mind you.
Just Fels-Naptha, cool or lukewarm
water, and a soft cloth.
Fels-Naptha dissolves the dirt in a
jiffy so it can be rinsed away; it doesn't
have to be scoured off.
As Fels-Naptha is also a germicide,
it is a good sanitary precaution to do
your housecleaning with it.
Did you ever try wasning dishes with
Fels-Naptha in lukewarm water?
It cuts the grease quick as a wink
and makes the glasses shine.
Directions for all uses of Fels-Naptha
are printed on the red and green, wrapper.
This is the type of simple life fe»
you to go after. Get work out of your
self, with plenty of ideas about it Don ♦
live for plum pudding: live for w.h=*
you can do.
This is the simplest game In ths
world. And yet - -
More men play pinochle every da
than play this great game of getting
on.
More women play bridge than t-rer
try to get acquainoo with the power
and character of tne ®ou! they hope
some day. to save.
All a Matter of Choice.
It is all a matter of choice unth ih.®
day you are scared to death, and then
the plum pudding and the pinochle
can do so little for the soul you want
to save that you hate them.
11.
Well, mister, if the rule Is so simple
why isn’t everybody at work on It?
Ido not know I think that a bit
of plum pudding that a man can see
looks better to him than the sou!
which he can not see—or. rather will
not see.
There may be some other reason.
But. after all, it must be the plum
pudding.
Successful men have been praising
work and its rewards for six thou
sand years, and they still have a small
audience.
They have kept on singing for slxtv
centuries that you can have all you
yant if you are willing to keep busy.
And still most people want it with
out work.
So I think it is the plum pudding
that wrecks this chance in life.
But it may be the duck or the
pinochle.
