A certain witty judge was trying a
case recently where a dealer sued a
steamship company for the loss of
some pigs in a fire on board i cross

that the steamer had a large de^kload,
and here the damage was greatest.
The judge thus began his charge to
the jury:
“Gentlefnen, to put those pigs on deck
was a rash act, Dut to fry them was

A Clear Skin.
P.ven under the make-up, Miss
D’Armond’s skin showed clear and
blemishless; her facial contours were
firm and rounded, with no sagging
lines at chin or throat or eyes. No
athlete in the prime of condition ever
had firmer flesh and more satiny skin.
And this is not the result of chance,
for Miss D’Armond knows just how
to achieve these results.
“I do not believe in soap or even
water for the face,” said she. “Water
makes wrinkles, especially when its
use is followed by that of a linen or
damask towel. I use a bath towel to
dry my face tyhen I wash it once a
week. Are you shocked at that?
Please don’t be, for I am sure I keep
my face clean! Cold cream and plen
ty of it—that is my means for cleans
ing and keeping the flesh firm; and
then I always rub up—up under the
chin, up from the sagging wrinkles
that like to cut a path from nostril
to lip corners, and up under the eyes
with light strokes. Cold cream
packed firmly under the eyes at night
keeps away the tiny network of
wrinkles that it is so hard to avoid.
And tiny strips of court-plaster at
the outer corners of the eyes and
across the furrows that come be
tween the eyes smooth them out.
“And now, listen to the party I
have with myself once a week: On
groomed, well bred and have a fine
outdoor swing when they walk—
that is, if they walk naturally and not
just a la mode. But fat does threaten
us—sweets and comfort and petting
and pampering do that. I am very
careful about not getting fat—and I
take simple precautions besides
plenty of exercise in the walking
line.
“Let me tell you about my anti-fat
methods—a glass of hot water the
first thing on getting up in the morn
ing and then a simple breakfast be
ginning with acid fruit. Plenty of
hot water and acid fruit keep the sys
tem clean and sweet. No potatoes, no
bread—though unbuttered toast is
harmless—few sweets, no fats and no
water at meals—that is a diet that it
is not a hardship to endure. And then
always stand after meals. That is
not a fad—it is a fact in the thinning
process. I am not recommending any
thing that I have not tried out myself,
and I am glad to help any girl who is
determined not to be a victim of the
‘white woman’s burden’—fat."
The great brown eyes looked at me
earnestly, the merry mouth was ready
to tremble into its infectious little
crooked smile—one of the gaye9t,
most heart-reaching smiles imagina
ble—and suddenly one of dainty Isa
bell D’Armond’s greatest beauty se
crets revealed itself to me; it Is this—
her unselfish interest in all that goes
on around her—her genuine admira
tion of other women, her sweet, sane
oneness with all of life.

D ON’T compare the criticisms of
your parents with the compli
ments paid you by a young
man to the detriment of the former.
The criticisms are at least based on
sincerity.
Don’t regard every compliment paid
you as a reason why you should have
your photograph taken. Frequent vis-
j its to a photographer are signs of a
vain mind.
Don’t seek information from a
i dream book. No one expects much
from the girl who seeks information
i from a dream book instead of from
Ian encyclopedia.
Don’! get the prevalent notion that
the young man who spends a month’s
salary in giving you a good time
thinks more of you thaji the man who
refuses to spend a week’s. The latter
loves more sanely.
Don't overlook the importance of a
love affair with your father. That is
the best • investment in the love of
man that any girl can make.
Don't forget that mother is a hu
man being, and sometimes gets tired.
Don't feel the third time a young
man has called on you that ft is time
for you »o take possession and de
mand that he account for the even
ings he spent somewhere else.
Don’t accept attentions from the
wrong kind of a man. excusing your
self he< au»f they mean nothing and
are trivial. Remember that the girl
who walks only as far as the comer
with the w rong kind of man will meet
every one she knows on the way.
Don't resent the desire of your par.
ents to know something of the young
man who calls on you. They fail in
their duty to you if they lack this
desire, or fail to act upon it.
Don't give your heart to a man who
refers to his parents as “the old lady”
and “the old man.”
Don't ever outgrow the habit of
your childhood of telling your mother
when you get home all that happened
at the party. It is more important
that you tell her what happens now
you are grow n than that you told her
when you were little.
Don't forget, if you have a little,
that you have more than your par
ents had in their youth, and that they
have struggled every day since you
came into the world with that unself
ish ambition in view.

But, with a movement of great
swiftness Garson got in front of her,
and barred her going. For a few sec
onds the two stared at each other
searchingly as if learning new and
strange things, each of the other. In
the girl's expression was an outrage 1
wonder and a great terror. In the
man’s was a half-shamed pride, as if
he exulted in the strength with which
he had been able to maintain his will
against her supreme effort to over
throw it.
“You can’t go.” Garson said sharp
ly. "You might bo caught.”
“And if I were.” Mary demanded in
a flash of indignation, “do you think
I’d tell?”
There came an abrupt change In
the hard face of the man. Into the
piercing eyes flamed a softer fire of
tenderness. The firm mouth grew
strangely gentle as he replied, and
his voice was overtoned with faith.
“Of course not, Mary,” he said. “I
know you. You would go up for life
first.”
Then again his expression became
resolute, and he spoke imperiously.
“Just the same, you can’t take
any chances. We’ll all get away in
a minute, and you’ll come with us."
He turned to the men and spoke witn
swift authority.
“Come,” he said to Dacey, “you get
to the light switch there by the hall
door. If you hear me snap my fingers
turn ’em off. Understand?”
Went to His Station.
With instant obedience the man ad
dressed went to his station by the
hall door, and stood ready to con
trol the electric current.
The distracted girl essayed one last
plea. The momentary softening of
Garson had given her new courage.
“Joe, don’t do this.”
“You <an’t stop it now. Mary,”
came the brisk retort. “Too late.
You’re only wasting time, making it
dangerous for all of us."
Again he gave his attention to
carrying on the robbery.
“Red,” he ordered, “you go to that
door.” He pointed to the one that
gave on the passageway against
which he had set the chair tilted. As
the man obeyed Garson gave fur
ther instructions.
“If any one comes in that way get
him quick. You understand? Don’t
let him cry out.”
Chicago Red grinned with cheerful
acceptance of the issue in such an en
counter. He held up his huge hand
w idely open.
“Not a chance,” he declared, proud
ly. “with that over his mug.” To
avoid possible interruption of his
movements in an emergency he re
moved the chair Garson had placed
and set it to one side, out of the
way.
“Now. let’s get to work,” Garson
continued eagerly.
Mary spoke with the .bitterness of
defeat.
“Listen, Joe! If you do this I’m
through with you. I quit.”
Garson was undismayed by the
threat.
-“If this goes through." he, coun
tered, “we’ll all quit. That’s why I’m
doing it. I’m sick of the game.”
He turned to the work in hand with
Increased energy.
“Come. you. Griggs and Red, r\nd
push that desk down a hit so that 1
can stand on it.” The two men bent
to the task heedless of Mary’s fran
tic protest.
“No! no! no! no! no! Joe!’’
Red, however, suddenly straight
ened from the desk and stood motion
less, listening. He made a slight hiss
ing noise that arrested the attention
of the others and held them in move
less silence.
“I hear something,” he whispered.
He went to the keyhole of the door
leading into the passage. Thep he
whispered again, "And it’s coming
this way.”
At the words Garson snapped his
Angers. The room was plunged in
darkness.

"I’ve simply got to,” replied Far

Long Tom Morrissey saying that
Kelly had Cobb and Speaker and all
the others beaten to death. I rushed
a man down there to buy him, but
you see he’s up against it. Chance
says we’ve got to have him, so I'm
going down to get him; that’s all.
Say,” he exclaimed suddenly. "What’s
the matter with your going down
there with me? You could help a
lot.”
“Maybe I’d better go with you.
The American League must have that
fellow," replied Johnson. after a
thoughtful paufee. "What time can we
get a train?”
Johnson and Farrell boarded the
Seaboard Fast Mall that pulled out
\ of the Pennsylvania Terminal at half
I after midnight and the first persons
; they bumped into were President
' James R. McAleer and Vice Presi
dent John I. Taylor, of the Boston

Taylor broke into a hearty laugh.
"Lemme see your ticket,'’ he said
to Farrell and Johnson.
“Lemme see yours,” replied Far
rell.
They produced long strips of green
paper for mutual inspection, ami
there was another hearty laugh ail
around.
"Atlanta, eh? I thought so.” said
Taylor. “You must mean business,
Frank, to take Ban along with you.”
“Oh, I don’t know, John, I see
you’re going along with Mac to make

torted the New Yorker.
“I received a telegram a yard long
from Patsy Donovan this noon,” said
McAleer. “and I decided that if we
wanted this fellow we better take
the bull by the horns, so I phoned
John and asked him to go to Atlanta
with me, and here we are. Say, there’s
going to be some fun down there, by
the looks of things.”
Quite So.
“What became of that little kitten
you had?” inquired the visitor of the
small boy of the house.
“Why. haven’t you heard?"
“No; was it drowned?”
"No."

“Poisoned ?”
“No.”
“Did you give it away?”
“No.”
“Then whatever did become of it?”
“It growed up into a cat.’’

There was absolute silence in the
library after the turning of the switch
that brought the pall of darkness.
Long seconds passed, then a littje
noise—the knob of the passage door
turning. As the door swung open
there came a gaitping breath from
Mary, for she saw framed in the fainl
light that came from the single burn
er in the corridor the slender form of
her husband. Dick Gilder. In the
next instant he had stepped within
the room and pulled to the door be
hind him. And in that same instant
Chicago Red had pounced on his vic

the young man’s mouth. Even as his
powerful arm held the newcomer in
an inescapable embrace there came a
sound of scuffling feet and that was
all. Finally the big man's voice came
triumphantly.
"I’ve got him.”

wail of despair from the girl. i

Whole City Excited.
When the party reached Atlanta
they found the city in the greatest
state of excitement over the impend
ing baseball deal which involved Gor
don Kelly. The newspapers were full
of news concerning the arrival of the
magnates. There were long inter
views with the big club owners from
the North. The magnates would say
little in regard to Kelly, beyond the
statement that they had heard he
was a fine ball player, and they
would not acknowledge they were in
Atlanta for the purpose of buying
his release from the Atlanta club.
They were willing to talk on general
baseball topics, however. The gath
ering of the magnates took on the as
pect of a great political convention
and the newspapers handled it that
way. Columns and columns of space
were devoted to it.
By noon that day fifteen out of the
sixteen big league clubs were repre
sented in the persons of tneir presi
dents and Atlanta became, politically,
the baseball center of the world.
As yet no definite move had been
made by any of the club owners to
bring the Gordon Kelly matter to
a show down with the officials of the
Atlanta club. The affair had assumed
such an importance that each visit
ing magnate hesitated about making
the first approach. President John
son, of the American League, of
whom no more clever baseball diplo
mat exists, sized the situation cor
rectly before he had been In Atlanta
three hours. He thought it all out in
his room in his hotel ana then
brought his fist down on the table
with a bang.
“The American League positively
must land Gordon Kelly.” he sal 1
aloud, although no one was with him
In his room. “It’s got to be done and
I’m going to do it."
CHAPTER XVI.
A UGUST HERRMANN. President
of the Cincinnati National
League Baseball Club, and
chairman of the National Commis
sion, the "Supreme Court of Base
ball,” was the first of the magnates
to make a determined effort to buy
the release of Gordon Kelly from the
Atlanta Club. He sought and ob
tained a personal conference with
President Callaway of the Atlanta
Club and got right down to business
without wasting words. He explain
ed that in his capacity as President
of the Cincinnati Club he had come
to Atlanta to make an offer for Kel
ly’s services, that he understood that j
previous offers had been of a more
or less vague sort, and wound up by j
making a flat proposition to buy Kei- i
ly’s release for $15,000 cash.
“But. Mr. Herrmann,” expostulated <
Callaway, “the Atlanta Club does not. !
want to dispose of Gordon Kelly. We
all appreciate the significance of all j
you owner* of the big clubs coming
to Atlanta at this time, hut we really
don’t care to talk business.”
To this Herrmann replied:
“Speaking now as chairman of th#*
National Commission, I would say
that one of the fundamental rules of
the commission is that a ball player
must be allowed to Improve his con- '
dition when ever the opportunity
presents Itself. The Southern League j
Is hampered by a salary limit, while
there is no limit to the salary a ma
jor league club may pay a player.
There is nothing in the laws of the ;
State or nation that can compel you
to dispose of Kelly’s services, but the
Atlanta Club, which could not exist
as a financial proposition except for
organized baseball, owes it to base
ball that this player’s services should
be disposed of to some major league
club. The Cincinnati Club may not
be the successful bidder, but the facts
remain the same.”
"This puts the Atlanta Club In a
very embarrassing position. Mr. Herr
mann.” returned Callaway, “and
without accepting or rejecting your
I offer I must call a meeting of our di
rectors and take a vote on the mat
ter.”
Before the directors could get to-
i gether, however, several other mag-
! nates called on the Atlanta Club's
President, or had him on the tele
phone, the result being that within
halt an hour an offer of $25,000 cash
was made by one of them.
The directors of the club were in
I session a full hour, after which Pres-
I ident Callaway announced that the
| Atlanta Club, while disposed to reject
! all offers, felt the necessity, aside
from all financial considerations, of
living up to the obligations of organ-
I ized baseball and that, such being the
case, they would 'sell Gordon Kelly’?
1 release' to the best advantage of the
stockholders of the club.
There was general rejoicing among
the magnates over this declaration
and corresponding gloom among the
“fans” of Atlanta, who were prompt
ly informed of the decision through
I “extras” issued by the afternoon
newspapers. The moguls were about
to gird on their armor to renew the
battle for Gordon Kelly, when Calla
way suggested that all business be
put aside for the moment in order
that all hands might attend the game
at Ponce DeLeon Park and see the
player who had set the baseball
world on fire.
It had been raining most of the
night before and part of the morn-*
ing. The afternoon was dark and
murky and the conditions were very
unfavorable for a ball game. What
with the dreary, dun-colored clouds
trailing their dim regiments over
head, the drearier rain soaking the
field into a swamp and the ghoulish-
looking players ranting around in the
mud like a squad of Klralfy’s high
kickers, the spectacle was anything
tut edifying to the assembled crowd.
But any sort of a day was good
enough to see Gordon Kelly play and
there was a surprisingly large crowd
on hand when the game began.
The game, itself was not calculated
to promulgate heart disease. Gordon
Kelly had no opportunity to distin
guish himself in the field. One very
easy fly ball was all that came in his
direction. At bat, however, he knock
ed out two singles and a three-bag
ger, but attempted no base stealing,
as the condition of the diamond made
it dangerous.
That evening the visiting magnates
were dined at the gorgeous Capita!
City Club by the directors of the At
lanta Baseball Club. After the sol
ids were disposed of Herrmann, of
Cincinnati, arose and after apologiz
ing for intruding business on pleas
ure. remarked that he, for one, must
hurry back to his home on an urgent
matter and suggested that the mat
ter of Gordon Kelly be settled then
and for all.
At that President Johnson of the
American League called his club
owners to a corner of the room and
addressed a few earnest remarks to
them. It quickly developed that the
price already offered for Gordon Kel
ly was as high as most of them cared
to go. It was something unprece
dented in the history of baseball that
a. player who had been in the game
only a few days should command
such a figure, and many of the club
Presidents were already alarmed at
the turn affairs had taken.

“No matter what I ate seemed gas
would form from It, causing me much
misery. This gas would cause my
stomach to bloat, my heart to palpi

would give me dizzy spells. It seemed
my food would not digest properly,
causing me distress. I used doctors’
treatments and different kinds of
medicines, but nothing helped me. I
seemed to be getting worse, and, as I
realized something had to be done, I
concluded to try once more, and there
fore, I called at Coursey A Munn’s
Drug Store for a treatment of Quaker,
which was six bottles. I simply can
not tell how quickly this great rem
edy helped me. People will not be

eat heartily without any stomach dis
