“The Gates of Silence”
By Meta Sim mtns, Author of “Hushed Up"
TODAY S INSTALLMENT.
The Red House.
Just for a moment, as she looked at
him in the clear candlelight of the Croft
drawing room, the man who spoke to her
In such kindly accents, with so deferen
tial a sympathy, had loomed up before
Betty’s eyes in a terrible guise. An en
emy a man who had trapped her father
and destroyed him—a man who wished
to make capita! of her distress and her
need, that he might destroy her, too. She
hardly knew how she had got rid of him—
how she had performed that hardest of
all tasks, the parrying of offers of help,
but what she had known with perfect
clearness was that she must seek a sanc
tuary where he would not-dare to intrude
—she must find a protector for herself.
Before Saxe had left the house Bet
ty’s thoughts had fled to the widowed
mistress of the Red House —to Jack Rim
ington’s aunt. There had never been
much intimacy between them. Hike Rim
ington himself, she had always felt that
this was a woman whose real life was
interior and remote from the world in
which she moved; as a child, she had
often wondered at Toby Rimington’s te
merity in playing hts boyish Jokes upon
her. yet she had never taken them amiss
she was kindly She was a good wom
an, if a reserved one. it was not possi
ble that she could refuse to help her in
her present distress.
The gates of the Red House stood open.
That was a fact that ought to have sur
prised Betty, had her thoughts not been
flying like scattered sheep before the wolf
of fear There were deep ruts on the
gravel of the drive, as though some heavy
vehicle had recently passed up or down.
Betty, as she reached the front door, saw
that it stood open and realized with a
startled dismay that the old stone hall
was dismantled and empty, save for the
debris of straw and paper that a removal
leaves behind it.
"Mrs. Rimington!" With a little gasp
ing cry of relief. Betty sprang forward
and accosted the figure of the mistress of
the house, who. in bonnet and cloak, with
heavy veil covering her face, was crossing
through to one of the rooms. "I—l had
no idea you were going away.”
"Why, Betty!" Mrs. Rimington turned,
putting back her veil. There was sur
prise in her eyes as she looked at the girl
who stood on the threshold, for Betty, in
her panic, had seized a lace scarf and
wound it about her head, but otherwise
she was in the thin house dress she had
been wearing when Saxe called The
evening was sharply chill, but until that
moment she had not been conscious of it
"My dear child. I hope nothing has hap
pened. You look terribly upset."
’’Everything has happened.” Betty
cried, with a great tearless sob. “And
now you are going away, Mrs. Rimington.
Oh. I don’t know what 1 shall do! I”
She broke down completely, hiding her
face on the elder woman's shoulder, blurt
ing out the story of her father's death,
blurting out something, too, of the fears
that had driven her there tonight.
T hoped—l prayed—that perhaps you
would take me in—give me shelter,” Betty
whispered. "For—for Jack’s sake.”
She could feel agjulver run through Mrs.
Rimington’s slight form.
A Noble Act.
"My dear child, you know how gladly J
would have helped you; but I am going
away. Didn’t you know that? lam leav

perceptible hesitation in her voice, and
she continued, almost hardly; "I am

"You are going down to Bilmouth to !
be near lack?” Betty Lumsden repeated ;
in a startled voice. “Oh. Mrs Rimington.
how grand, how noble of you!”
There was a hushed note in her voice,
and she looked at the woman before her
with eyes full of reverence, as a child
might look at some suddenly vouchsafed
vision of an angel.
“Don’t speak like tha': I detest effusive
ness and emotion.” the widow said harsh
ly “There is nothing in the least splen

that it would he money uselessly spent If

give to his service the hours of the long
days to spend in prayer for him. It will
save him from losing all hope to know
that somewhere, very near, within sight
and sound o this prison—there is one
faithful heart that believes and watches.”
Bett.v made a sudden impulsive move
ment of her hands.
“But it is splendid." she said. "Most
splendid. Mrs. Rimington. I would give
all that 1 have to do what you are doing
—for the joy of such service."
Deborah Rimington laughed.
“For the joy of living in a three-roomed
cottage on a desolate moor, my dear
Betty ’.’" she said. “Os living on practical
ly prison fare, of rising and seeking rest
at prison hours? 1 doubt—l greatly doubt
—that even your love for Jack would

“Try’ me!" cried Betty She moved for

"Give me the chance. If you have any

chance. Let me come with you—as your

Just as your servant —for house room and

Deborah Rimington’s eyes glowed sud

brow, that all but shrouded them.
”I’ll give you the trial,” she said, grimly.
“But don’t cry out if you are hurt. You’ve
lived as a princess, Betty Lumsden; you
will have to learn to live as a herdsman s
daughter at my cottage on the moor."
The girl gave a short laugh that was
threaded with tears.
"Ah, you don’t know me. she cried.
“It is much for a woman to do for the
man she loves? It has been ’done before

"But never as I will do it.” said De

There was a gale raging out at sea:
the noise of its great guns came echo
ing over the desolate stretches of open
moorland; the sparse-growing' trees bent
before its violence as It rushed inland;
the barren fruit trees and stunted shrubs
in the garden surrounding the thatched,
single-storied cottage were bowed al
most flat as it whirled and eddied about
the building, snarling,and howling

put her hands to her ears to try and

it. For the two W’eeks she had been at
the cottage on the moor she had heard
no other sound but this—save the far
off clang of the prison bell. But It was
not to be shut out —it seemed to have

MISS DIANA OSTE.
(One of the Ziegfeld beauties in "The Winsome Widow" Company.)
By DIANA OSTE.
QUITE a lot of people have asked
me what I do to keep my hair
looking so well, and to make it
grow' so long.
Now. I can’t say that I had anything
to do in making it grow long. My hail’
always was healthy and strong, and
it’s only since I’ve been on the stage
that I realize that you have to care for
your hair if you’want to keep it in
good condition.
The heat of the dressing rooms, the
paint and powder, and the quantity of
cold cream one uses, all have their
effect on the scalp, and they are'not
good for the hair any more than is
dust or other substances which clog the
pores of the scalp.
The hair of the modern girl really
does not get enough ventilation, and 1
believe that is one reason why there
are so few fine heads of hair, such as
we are told women used to have in
generations past.
in the first place, sunshine is an ab
solute necessity for the hair, especially
if it is light or has golden or reddish
glints in it. You can notice right away
tjte difference in the color of the hair
of a blonde if after a period of long
confinement in the house she spends
a whole day in the sunshine without a
hat on.
Whenever 1 get the chance I venti
late iny hail, taking out ail the hair
pins and letting it down, running my
hands through It, so that the air gets
to the roots. If I have the good for
tune to be in the country. I don’t wear
a hat at all. but go about with -my
hair hanging, letting the wind and sun
shine act as beauty agents.
The Open Air.
One day in the open air will lighten
the hair up wonderfully, and the
blonde who can stay out of doors will
never need the aid of the peroxide
bottle. But, of course, to lighten up
the hair In this natural way, you must
let it down and brush and comb It fre
quently, so that the light and the air
will get to all parts of it.
Bathing in salt water and then dry
ing the hair in the strong sun will also
lighten it considerably, but you must
be sure and not try it too often, or
the hair will become brittle and break
off.
So many people have brittle hair that
it’s no wonder people who sell bril
liantine make fortunes at it.
I have my own special way of oiling
m.v hair, and though I don't do it very
often, 1 do it very thoroughly, as you
will see. Whenever I have a vacation,
especially if that vacation occurs in
summertime, I get ready a couple of
little caps. and. taking a bottle of good
cocoanut oil. 1 go away to the coun
try’ or some place where my’ friends

To Develop the Bust
To Beauty Editor:
Hl am so ashamed
of my thin bust
that I want to ask
you if there is any
harmless way to
•levelop it My hips
and the rest of my
body are right for
the present styles,
and I do not want
them any larger,
but my bust is so
flat that I would

The only thing I
know of that will develop the bust with
out increasing the size of the hips, or
without putting on flesh where not need

Kelly Company. especially for small and
undeveloped breasts. It is the discovery
of a woman physician whose pra lice was

four to six inches in a month. Send 10c

in cases of arrested development of the

without anyone knowing that the treat

Many mothers have told me that after
the ha by had been weaned the breasts he
came flabby and shrunken, but the use of

without startling the neighborhood. 1
sit out in the open air and take the cap
off. and ventilate the hair and scalp. At
night 1 wear a little cap of oilskin to
protect the pillow, and 1 leave this oil
on for at least a week and sometimes i
two. Then when I am ready to come
away I shampoo my halt thoroughly
with hot soap suds made from soap
bark, and dry it in the sun. For months
it kqeps a beautiful gloss, due to the
thorough oiling it received, and 1 never
have to do a thing to it.
I find that if I worry much, or am
ill or dispirited, my hair shows it al

it faded her hair. When you air your

call it, don't sit in the broiling sun un

I have always found that when the
hair falls out too much it is due to two
things—indigestion or not enough
shampoo. I hav; never failed to reme
dy the trouble immediately by trying
both euros. Os course, it’s awfully hard
to shampoo long hair one’s self, but
when there Is no hair dresser handy I
can do mine quite well by braiding it in
two braids and washing one braid at a
time.
Careful Brushing.
Often it is very difficult to keep one’s
hair in good order and the scalp clean,
especially "on the road.” At such times
I make up for it by brushing my hair
about twice as much as I would ordi
narily do and by keeping my brushes
very clean. I always have two hair
brushes -one w ir< one for brushing out
tangles and the other a bristle brush
for polishing and oiling the hair. The
reason why most brushing is virtually
useless is because the brushes are not
kept clean enough, and one is just
brushing the dust in again.
When you are brushing 'our hair to
i lean it, rub the scalp over with a dean
towel or a piece of linen. If the hair
is very dusty, dip the linen in bay rum
and rub the scalp thoroughly. You can
use a soft tooth brush, if you prefer.'
This will keep the scalp in good con
dition even if you have to let it go
several weeks without shampooing lhe
hair, and it’s a good way to do when
you are ill and not able to hare your
head washed.

TRY SOME CHURCH SOCIETY.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am a young man of 21, and have
b -en keeping company with a close
friend one year m.v senior for near
ly three years. We have been
working together at one place and
living under the same roof. We
have spent this time very happily.
Two weeks ago my’ friend left for
Chicago for a higher position.
Now I am alone and would like
very much to gain the acquaint
ance of some nice girls. B. S. A.
There are always nice young girls
in the church societies. I think that
is a. good way to make acquaintances.
Have you no men friends who will
stand sponsor in introducing you to
their friends?
