A GOOD story is told of a worthy Quaker who lived
in a country town. The man was rich anti
benevolent, and his meant; were put la frequent
requisition for purposes of local charity or usefulness
The townspeople wanted to rebuild their parish church
and a committee was appointed to raise funds. It was
agreed that the Quaker could not be asked to subscribe
toward an object so contrary to his principles, but then,
on the other hand, so true a friend to the town might
take it amiss if he was not at least consulted on a mat
ter of such general interest. So one of their number
went and explained to him their project—the old church
was to be removed and such and such steps taken
toward the construction of a new one.
"Thee wast right," said the Quaker, "in supposing that
my principles would not allow me to assist in building
a church. But didst thee not say something about pull
ing down a church? Thee mayst put my name down
for a hundred pounds to pull it down."

TO-DAY’S INSTALLMENT
There was a pause. Emily Nelson
stood trembling with emotion such as
she had forgotten to know through long
guarded years of life that bad made
ibis moment come relentlessly to her
at last. The Instrument was held close
to her ear as she waited for Charles
Nelson's voice—while her gaze never
left the room behind whose curtains
her son and his was making prepara
tion for his—long Journey. Could she
save hi in—now at last? Could anything
now be saved from the wreck of love
and—honor—and zest to live?
At last a Voide. Ills voice—her hus
band was there at the other end of the
little wire that might be the instrument
of saving their boy.
“Hello! Charlie! It is Emily! I am at
Kenneth's! He Is In dreadful trouble!
He ie going to—Oh, I can’t tell you,
Charlie. Come to me! Come to save
him! How long?—Five minutes?—I'll
tjy and keep him! No more! No! No!
I love you, Charlie! Corns!”
She dropped the Instrument that
might yet be of salvation and fell Into
the chair sobbing wildly her strength
• 'most spent.
Kenneth came Into the room—walking
as In a daze—like a sleep-walker. He
held some letters In his hands—with the
most minute care he was tearing these
Into small pieces. As he heard his
mother sob be dropped the paper to the
floor a white shower—and went to her
side.
“Don’t! Don't do that!” he said in a
tone so frozen by the horror of all he
had come to know of life that It sound
ed remote—like a voice from another
plane.
Emily Nelson looked up. Five min
utes! Could she hold her son that long?
“What are you going to do, Ken
neth r*
“Just going away. 1 can’t stay here,
you know I am not fit. I can’t face 4t'
1 can't face- life,” he mumbled almost
to himself. But her heart defined w’hat
her ears could not hear.
Emily Nelson rose and followed her
boy toward the door.
“It Is my fault. 1 was a bad mother!”
“We did not understand—any of us.”
said Kenneth, in that quiet voice of
doom.
“Dear. I have suffered! I think 1
understand now." said his mother,
gently.
Fighting the Moments.
In the boy’s face was that grim sor
row that seemed to be bearing his soul
away from life and light and any hu
man consciousness.
"That's what father meant—that suf
fering would open my eyes. It has.
He said that I should see myself and her
as we really are—and—1 do. It isn’t
*. pretty sight.”
His eyes deepened- and then again
there came across them that film—that
faraway look.
“I want to get rid of it—mother, so—
1 am going.”
One step farther from her—one step
nearer the door—and after that—what?
“Wait!”
The mother came hastily between her
son and the door—that door she must
not let him pass. Could she hold him?
Could she hold him? Her agonized
brain kept reiterating that question
even while she was bending every en
ergy, every power, to the successful an-

sw r ering of the question on which fate
was balanced.
“You did not love her! Ken. It Is
not sorrow I see In your eyes—It is bit
terness!”
“Perhaps. T don’t know.” The boy
spoke in a sort of lethargy of indiffer
ence He felt that nothing that had
passed mattered now all that counted
was what was coming. "What diffur-
ence doe* It make*' Are you coming
down? I can't wait.”
He did not call her by the sacred
name of mother—It was scarcely to his
mother he spoke—Just to some one who
was, strangely enough, showing interest
in him, now that it was too late, and
trying to change his plans—too late!
He turned courteously—but Impatiently
—to the door.
As he started Emily Nelson put her
hand on his arm very gently she
scarcely dared to caress him he seemed
to her like one In some strange trance -
she dared not w’aken him too abruptly—
lest reason totter—lest he push her
roughly aside and go on with what he
had determined.
“Just a moment, dear! When did she
go?”
’’Just now.”
"Why?”
"She was tired She couldn't
stick. . . That’s what the old man
said—poor old beggar she couldn't
stick. Well ... 1 must go!”
Again he started for that door of
strange doom. Again the frantic mother
seized upon any pretext to stop him
“Did -did she go alone?”
“No.”
“With whom?"
’’Please! 1 CAN’T GIVE IT OVER
AGAIN! I CAN'T LIVE IT ALL OVEK
AGAIN! LET ME GO!”
The mother heart knew that he could
not live it all over again -that with
that memory searing boyhood and hope
and Idealism from Ills nature he could
scarcely bear to live at all for these
few extra moments thut she was trying
to hold him - to save his sanity -to save
his life itself! And yet she must an

were sweeping through hls agonized
youtig-old mind. Life had offered Ken
neth Nelson a rude awakening -w’ould

terms of death?
“Yes, dear, of course." said Emily,
soothingly.
He passed her—on, on toward that
door. There seemed nothing to say—
nothing to do all had been tried in
vain. Would the mother gtvc up hope,
and cease righting her battle against
the odds of a disordered brain?
“Oh, Ken!”
Ho stopped.
“Yes?” »
"Mary Burk was
“Mother, dear! 1 atn very tired —
and and—I have a lot to do.”
Emily strove for an easy tone. If
only some stray gleam of love for the
girl whose unselfish devotion for the
boy she had been coldly told was "too
good for her was worlds above her”—
could brighten the gray gloom of Ken’s
outlook on life ami love and woman!

growth in womanhood was measured by
her simple Judgment that her penniless
social secretary's love was the one

life of the wayward boy whom both
women loved.
Perhaps Mary’s name would be the
talisman to save Ken!
“I am very tired and 1 have a lot

"Naturally go dear—how silly for me

There was deep subtlety in that!

“Only ourselves, sor.”
There was a moment’s pause. Then
the flinty smile played about the firm
mouth of Chief Dempster. There was
a trail plain for hls eyes to see. Only
he could not see Just where It would
lead, and well for him, and for the

“Only ourselves,” repeated the In

chief Dempster put a grin period
to the sentence. “And Holbrook,” said
he quietly.
But Holbrook was speeding through
the night—speeding on to his cham
bers—speeding to the final revelation of
that tell-tale plateholder he had filched
from the camera Donnell held In hands
that should never have been trusted
• with such valuable evidence.
A Night of Terror.
The victims of the scourge Insom
nia call a night of sleeplessness a “w'hlte
night"—they dread even through the
golden day the coming of the long
stretch of hours when all life sleeps
and they alone wake. A “white night”
measures horrors of twitching nerves
and unresting mind—of weariness and
despair too great for normal man.
wrapped in sweet slumbers, to meas
ure. But the terrors of such a night
are multiplied a thousand fold—are
raised to the power of desperate agony
when they come to a girl whose past is
a degradation, whose present is a liv
ing horror of death itself—and whose
future Is only a pitiless toll extorted
from her own mistakes.
Uke a mad thing Aline had gone
through the streets after that scene
of strangling and choking and strug-
ling and striking in the den of the
spider. In fear she had left her own
home ,to enter the web she bad allowed
to be woven about her six years be
fore by the summer sea. But fear was
an unmeasured thing—fear was a weak
word to picture the tortured agony she
must endure as she tied back to what
could no more be a refuge for her—to
what was called Home—Home whose
sacred precincts she had defiled.
Aline rushed from the spider’s do
main she ran from that writhing thing
that had lately been called a man—
she fled from Insult and degrading in
nuendo from that leering face and silky
voice that dared ask of her. nay. de

throughout the year."

«he reached her own doorway at last.
But there was one enemy she could
not shake off—one danger she could not
flee That was herself and her own
bla. k knowledge of Aline Graham.
At last she reached her own room.
She tore from her the polluted gar
ments that the master of pollution had
touched—the poisoned things she had
w’orn in tho rooms of Evil. She flung
them In a heap on the floor; they couki
not he touched now; her maid would
hang them away. And In flinging aside
the habiliments of that dark night
Aline forged another link lri the chain
that must soon bind her fast. At last
her soft white “robe de nuit” encased
her cold form and she tumbled into the
sanctuary of her white bed. Like a
child that shuts out darkness, she
pulled the covers over her eyes; warmth
and comfort must He there. But warmth
and comfort lay nowhere. The girl lay
shivering in fear and horror of all she
had learned this night and all she did
not guess. For the full terror of her
visit to her enemy Aline did not know;
she did not realize that Judson Flagg—
had died!
Suddenly she heard the jangle of the
door bell—loud talking—she must know
what it portended—she must have real
ity Instead of this numbing terror of
what might be. She leaped from her
bed and crept to the top of the stairs.
Aline Graham had become an eaves
dropper In her father’s house! She
came on down the stairs and stood
trembling at the library door.
She listened—and new terror tore at
her face like a monster with evil claws.
Like a fugitive thing she crept back to
her room at last—and stealthily, lest
any might hear her, she began dressing
In street clothes. Then In the sinister
black of the midnight hour Aline Gra
ham again left the protection of her
father’s house—and crept out Into the
streets.
A man’s room will often tell what he
Is. In one of the side streets of Wash
ington—in one of the luxurious apart
ment buildings of Washington—where
secretaries of legation and young for
eign diplomats, where dilettanti at liv
ing, where Washington’s eligible bach
elors prove how homelike may be a
home even without woman’s magic
touch, Lawrence Holbrook had hls quar
ters.
To-night a white-clad, black-haired.
Oriental-eyed Filipino boy stood with
Eastern stoicism and patience and
gazed out of a high studio window into
the blackness of the midnight streets.
Master would come soon and in the
meantime the “boy” would stand and
gaze into the same blackness that held
his island jungles.
Back of him and hls window lay a
huge living room wainscoted high in
panels of soft brown Circassian walnut.
Above the wood was a wall covering
of forest green burlap. Against this
background were hung half a dozen
time-mellowed and rare hunting prints.
Above the fireplace was a fine moose
head, and on the breast of the mantel
were shining barreled guns. Over door
ways amt hung above the monster buf
fet and wide book shelves were swords,
knives, a Manila krlss, some foils, a
travel-worn knapsack and wavy daggers
of a rare Spanish make. Sconces lit
the dark wainscoting and shone on the
heads of elk and caribou and on hunt
ing horns from iar German forests. A
“world-man” indeed was the dweller in
this great room.
Suddenly tne keen-eared Filipino boy
turned arranged glasses and decanter
on the great table in the center of the
room—drew the deep Russian chair
closer to the gleaming fire and stood at
attention at the open door with a quiet
dispatch that seemed to disprove all
theories about Oriental slowness.
In His Home.
With the easy grace that was hls
J Irish heritage- with the smiling at-
homeness with the world that had al-
I ways been his—up to the time of dnn-
l ger—Captain Holbrook swung into hls
own domain. The servitor he had
trained to wear livery Instead of Fil
ipino skins and fiber took his hat and
coat with a military precision.
“Wait a minute, Barney. Hold on. D
ye don’t mind, I’ve got something up
me sleeve.”
He took that long black box of Jap
anned metal from his sleeve. Barney
looked curiously at the other sleeve.
The captain produced a queer little
wooden thing from his pocket and put It
on the table. Off came his dinner coat
and draped its well-cut blackness over
a chair; then the captain’s hands slipped
through the unaccustomed opening in
hls shirt sleeves, leaving the cuffs
standing away from his arms Just below
the elbows.. He picked up the curious
thing that was a plate-holder and van
ished into an inner Yoom. Barney looked
after hls master speculatively, touched
the black box with a long, curious finger
—shook his head, and picking up the
topcoat and fedora marched into anoth
er room.
Had Larry Holbrook forgotten the
emerald brooch that lay in telltale care
lessness in the pocket of that coat that
he had so Idly hung over the back of
tho chair?
For a moment there was stillness in
the deserted room. Then the captain’s
voice called, “Barney! Barney!” No
answer. Back came Holbrook carrying
a red lamp unlighted and a pan for a
photographic plate*
The Missing Hypo.
“Barney!”
“Yes, sir,” and the servitor with nar
row, twitching black eyes came at the
call.
“There was a bottle of hypo in my
cupboard. Where Is it?” Holbrook was
now quite intent on lighting the lamp.
"What, sir?”
“The stuff you’ve seen me pour in this
pan.”
“Bah-tle?” queried Barney, with
great precision.
"Yes.”
‘‘Don’ know'. Captain.”
“You must find it, Barney.”
“Don’ know!”
He started across the room, shaking
his head gravely and repeating his for
mula, “Don’ know.”
•’It’s not there!” cried the captain in
exasperation he must have the means
of developing this plate—he must know
—the worst—the very, very worst.
He spoke with slow patience.
“Big bottle—says Tl-Y-P-O on the
label—big Poland water bottle.”
Barney bobbed hls head vigorously;
he went over and knelt at the buffet.
“Oh, yis. sir—yis. sir.”
The captain dropped the work of his
hands and straightened up to the oc
casion.
“My word—in the buffet!”
“These. Captain?’’
“That’s it . . . Barney, did you give
anyone a drink of it?”
“Not yit, sir.” answered Barney re
spectfully.
“Well, wait till I tell you before you
do!”
“Yis, sir.’’
The captain started back to his own
private sanctum to immerse the plate
that would tell all in its hypo bath.
“And, Barney—don’t drink any of it
yourself.”
“Yis, sir.”
The captain lingered at the door and
spoke with the grave emphasis he used
in training this ignorant “boy”—and
yet there was in eye and voice the
twinkle that had won him the friend
ship of women and savages.
A New Plan.
“That’ll send you back to Manila,
Barnadino—in a pine box. . . . Now
get Dr. Elliott on the phone and tell
him I’m sick—to come as fast as ever
he can ”
A new plan was hatching In the pro
lific brain of this soldier of fortune.
“Docker Ell-yut,” repeated Barna
dino gravely.
“Yes.' His number’s in the little book.
E-two L’s-I-O and two teas!”
Barney’s nose was burled in the lit
tle book while yet he knew’ that precious
formula.
“Yis, sir.”
“And after that get me a pot of
tea.”
Barney dropped the book—and gazed
at his master in something akin to
horror.
“TEA!"
TEA!” Repeated Captain Holbrook
late of the U. S. A. and late and soon
of the world. There was something in
this brief dialogue to suggest that tea
was not a beverage for the preparation
of which Barnadino had a vast num
ber of calls.
"Yis, sir,” said Barney In a chastened
tone.
The Captain took the plate and w r ent
into the dark room that would soon
give him light that should be as sinister
and dark as the ruby-lit gloom In which
the mysteries of the camera come to
life. Barnadino went back to his book
and the formula, “E-two L’s-I-0 and
two teas!”
"3-8-1 Main.”
The Captain came back to the door
way for a brief second.
“Tell him I’m near dead.”
The door slammed after him with a
tone of finality—and Barney was left
alone with the room and its precious
contents.
“Yis, sir," said Barnadino, In the
pause of waiting for the mysterious pro
ceedings that made that little black
thing at his ear talk to him.

that all her efforts to buy one had

"How can I thank you!” answered
she. ”It makes no difference to me

she had fled.

that at examination time each of the
candidates shall write the following
pledge at the bottom of his papers;

Now, recently, it so happened that a
young fellow’, after handing in one of
the papers, suddenly remembered that
in his haste he had omitted to write the

he sought out one of the examiners and
told him that he had forgotten to put

A Friend of Quaker for Twenty-Two Years
We have moved to our new store,
97 Peachtree Street.
ATLANTA FLORAL CO.
Mr G. R. Howder, 63 years of age.
who lives at 110 Center street, this
city, has been a friend of Quaker Ex
tract for twenty-two years. When he
first became acquainted with its won
derful virtues he had been ailing for
years from stomach troubles, and had
used quite a few of the many remedies
on the market at that time, but found
nothing to give real permanent relief
until he at last found the first pack-
uge of Quaker Herbs, put up at that
time in a dry form. He was cured by
a few weeks’ use of them, and since
then each year usually at the spring
time, he gives himself and all the fam
ily a course of the great medicine, and
if more healthy-looking and vigorous-
feeling man at the age of 63 can be
found In Atlanta it will take more
than the normal eyes to find him. Mr.
Howder has raised two children on
“Quaker,’' and they have never had
the puny. pale, sallow complexions of
the average child, nor have they suf
fered from the many ills that beset
the growing child, more especially the
hundreds of worms and other intesti
