SYNOPSIS
Motoring through Vermont, Philip
Starr, young Boston architect, meets
Blanche Manning, .seventeen, with
whom he is immediately enamored. It
being a long distance to Starr’s desti¬
nation, Blanche suggests, the village
of Hamstead not boasting a hotel, that
he become, for the night, a guest of
her cousin, Mary Manning. Mary re¬
ceives Philip with true Vermont hos¬
pitality. and he makes the acquaintance
of her cousin Paul, recognized as her
fiance. Paul is inclined to be dissi¬
pated. Cale Hamlin, long a suitor for
Mary’s hand, visits Hamstead but
makes no progress in his lovemaking.
Philip, from records of the Manning
family, learns the sorrowful story of
the “Countess Blanche,” French wife
of a Revolutionary hero, Moses Man¬
ning, and of the peculiar “curse” she
has transmitted to her descendants and
the women of Hamstead. The evening
of Philip’s marriage to Blanche, Paul,
under the influence of liquor, bitterly
affronts Mary, and tells her their en¬
gagement is ended. Mary, at first
acutely conscious of her position as a
“jilted” woman, is greatly comforted by
her lifelong friend, Sylvia Gray, and the
Jove of her two small brothers. Paul,
really loving Mary, though with a self¬
ish attachment, finds life a good deal
of a blank with her out of the picture.
He expresses contrition and a keen de¬
sire to re-establish himself in her
esteem, but Mary, disillusioned, re¬
jects him.
CHAPTER IX—Continued
- 10 -
Violet, having fixed a date for her
visit with Blanche, decided to go to
Mew York for a few days’ shopping
first She had no intention, she said,
with a slight flutter of “nerves," when
Paul, who had been giving some pain¬
ful attention to the subject, pointed
out to her that the state of their
finances was still low after his sis¬
ter’s wedding and that such trips and
shopping were expensive, of looking
“countrified” when she first went to
stay at her new son-in-laiv’s home, and
to meet her daughter's new friends.
“If you had shown any consideration
of me at ail, we wouldn't have been
so straitened!" she sobbed.
“Why, I never urged you to spend
all that money.”
“Don’t argue with me! You know
it always prostrates me to have vul¬
gar quarrels going on. As if this
wretched affair with Mary hadn’t end¬
ed every hope of our having her
money! And then you try to put the
blame on me and accuse me of—”
“Well, I’ve played Mary so many
dirty, mean tricks that I suppose it’s
natural you should think I’d use her
money to pay our silly debts. I prob¬
ably would have—the way things were
going. But I haven’t accused you of
anything. 1 only said—”
“Oh, I know what you said, but it
makes all the difference how a thiug
is said, and the meaning back of the
saying counts still more! I suppose
you’ll refuse to drive me to the mid¬
night train, next!”
Paul did not, of course, refuse to do
anything of the sort. To tell the truth,
he was almost glad to see his mother
go. Her indolence, her extravagance,
her selfishness, seemed so appalling
to him just then, that he found them
increasingly difficult to live with, and
none the less so because he thought
he saw all these qualities reflected
and magnified in his own character.
It was also becoming clear to him that
he must either earn more—or rather
earn something—or spend less, if they
were to get out of debt, and that he
could put considerable time to ad¬
vantage in figuring out Bow he was to
do this. He began his reflections in
this direction on his way home after
taking her to the station. An un¬
usually heavy snow storm had obliged
him to drive the old family horse, in¬
stead of using the new motor, and it
was two o’clock in the morning when
he reached home. There was, he hap¬
pened to notice, a light in Mary’s
room. When he had put the horse up
and was going from the barn to the
house, he saw that it was still burn¬
ing, and heard her voice at the tele¬
phone through an open window. Seth
and Jane were both away, he knew,
attending a Sunday school convention.
Mary was therefore alone with the
two little boys, and something was
certainly wrong. He went up close
to the house and called.
“Mary! Mary! Is anything the mat¬
ter? Can I help?”
He was more frightened than before
at the agonized voice that answered
him.
“Yes—YES—Oh, thank God you’ve
come!”
He pushed open the front door and
bounded up the stairs. Mary was
bending over the bed. And on the
bed lay Algy. gasping and writhing,
and then lying deathly still.
“He’s got convulsions,” Mary man¬
aged to say in a stifled voice. “I
can’t leave him a second. He might
choke to death if I did.”
“What am I to do first?”
“Start the kitchen fire. We'll get
him into a hot bath."
Paul vanished without another word.
In an incredibly short time, he was
back again.
“What next?”
“See if you can get hold of a doc¬
tor. I tried, but Central was so slow
in answering I didn’t dare . . . Oh—
Oh—” for the livid child was choking
again.
There was no resident physician at
the little cottage hospital. Doctor
Noble, the head surgeon, lived at home.
After what seemed like endless wait¬
ing, Paul got his house.
"David’s with Sylvia Gray,” he said
a minute later, turning with a white
face from the telephone. “She’s very
ill.”
“Try Doctor Wells, then.”
There was another long wait, and
then again Paul faced the despair in
Mary's eyes. “He's gone there, too,
it’s—it’s a desperate case. Shall I
call him up, there?”
“Yes—no— Oh, Paul, you know
,
what the trouble is there! It's two
lives, maybe, against one!”
“He might at least be able to tell
us what to do.”
“You’ll have to try White Water—
Wallacetown — any place you can
think of.”
Again Paul tried. One doctor was
sick himself. Two had gone away to
attend a medical congress. A fourth,
twenty miles away, appealed to as a
last resort, didn’t know how he could
get there—"the roads aren’t broken
through down this way.”
"We’ve got to face it alone," said
Mary at last.
Paul knew that it was in that mo¬
ment that his selfish and idle boyhood
“He's Got Convulsions,” Mary Man¬
aged to Say in a Stifled Voice.
died and that the potential manhood
in him came to life.
“We’ve got to face it together,
Mary,” he said.
It was eight o’clock in the gray No¬
vember morning when David Noble
finally came to them. Mary was sit¬
ting in a large rocker, with Algy, a
little gray shadow of the rosy child
of the day before, clasped in her
arms. Paul, a glass of brandy-and
water in his hand, rose from his knees
beside his cousin’s chair.
“Algy was ail right when he went to
bed last night,” he stated, briefly.
"He woke up in convulsions at mid¬
night. I was passing about two o’clock
and saw Mary’s light. She was all
alone with him till then. We've done
the best we could."
David raised the child’s ‘"-clids to
look at the pupils and fell s pulse
while Paul was speaking. He bent
over, listening intently to the little
heart. Then he raised his head.
“You’ve saved his life,” he said, with
equal brevity.
A few minutes later, in the blessed
sense of security that had come over
her, Mary asked for Sylvia.
“She didn't get her twins, of
course?” she asked, almost lightly.
“She’s talked of nothing else for
months.”
David’s face contracted, and Mary
noticed for the first time that he
looked strangely old and very, very
tired.
“Yes,” he said huskily. “She did.
Twin girls, just what she wanted.
And—she’s taken one of them back to
Heaven with her.”
CHAPTER X
The tragedy of Sylvia Gray's death
shook Hamstead to its very founda¬
tions. Austin was almost crazed with
grief. Even David, who had always
had more influence over him than
anyone else except Sylvia herself,
could not move him.
“This won’t bring her back, Austin,
you know,” he said, at last, as gently
as ever, but more firmly. “And—and
she would have been the last to—to
want you to take it like this. Her
courage never faltered through any¬
thing.”
Austin neither answered nor moved.
“We must think what to do for the
other baby. You’ve got her, you know,
and the two little boys.”
“I don’t want to think of the baby.”
“It isn’t the baby’s fault," said
David, still more gently, divining what
was passing in Austin's mind.
“No—but it’s mine! She wasn’t
strong enough for this! You said
yourself, when, the second boy came
so soon after the first, that—that she
shouldn’t have another for a long
time.”
“Yes.” David chose his words care¬
fully. “But, Austin—you came first,
with Sylvia, just as she did with you.
She was so brave that it was hard to
get heb to admit, ever, that she felt
ill—that everything wasn't all right.
But once she said to me, ‘David, if
anything should go wrong, be sure to
tell Austin, afterwards, that there
wasn’t one minute in our life together
that I would have had different—that
there’s no price too great to pay for
perfect happiness.’ She meant It.
How many men’s wives do you think
CLEVELAND COURIER
can say that?—Mine can't," he ended,
his voice breaking.
Next to Austin himself, there was
no one, perhaps, in the whole village,
to whom the loss of Sylvia came us
such a horrible shock as to Mary.
Algy was still very 111. The fear that
the child would yet die, In spite of her
fight for his life, grew a thousand
times larger now that Sylvia's death
had brought the Valley of the. Shadow
so close to her.
Mary (lid not close her eyes, nor stir
from her little brother's side for three
days and nights. And all that time,
beside the actuality of the stricken
child that she saw there, she visual¬
ized (he picture of Sylvia and one
little baby—of Austin and the othefi.
And she thought—involuntarily, but
constantly—of Lady Blanche’s dying
curse and Its reiterating fulfillment.
Whom would it strike next? She
thought of Blanche, seemingly so se¬
cure in her radiant happiness, and
trembled until her teeth chattered.
The first time that Paul saw her again
after the night of the double tragedy
— that long night through which they
had fought for the sick child together
—he felt that he would gladly have
given ten years of his life if he had
not thrown away his right to take her
in his arms and kiss away the tears
and bring a little color into her white
cheeks and a smile to her drawn lips.
As it was, he could only venture to lay
one of his hands on the two that lay
so tightly clenched in her lap, and put
the other gently on her shoulder.
“Don’t,” was all he could think of
to say, all, that is, that he dared to
say, his own lips quivering. “Don't
Mary,” and was thankful when she did
not repulse him, but clung to him,
sobbing, while lie stroked her soft
hair.
Paul was suffering, too, suffering
with the revelation of truths that he
had never sensed, with the facing of
problems he had never solved nor
tried to solve. The way that Austin
loved Sylvia—was that the way men
cared for women? The way that
Mary loved -Algy—was that the way
women cared for children? Passion
that was all love, love that was all
self-sacrifice—what had that to do
with careless sensuality, or equally
careless affection? When, for the sec¬
ond time, David Noble sought him out,
he found that the boy had already
started to find him.
“What can I do to help?” Paul asked
abruptly.
“There isn't much. Your Cousin
Jane is proving a tower of strength to
Mary by relieving her of the burden
of ordinary daily grind. We men
never stop to think that meals have
to be cooked and dishes washed and
fires built, no matter who lives or
dies, do we? Everyone is trying to
help Mary now. And no one in God’s
world can help Austin.”
“Then what were you looking for me
for?”
“I wanted to tell you that I thought
you did darned well the night that
kid almost slipped through Mary's fin¬
gers. He would have, if you hadn’t
been there. And also—to give you a
message from Sylvia. She seemed to
have a good deal of faith in you. I
had a rather long talk with her about
a week before she—went—and one of
the things she said to me was, ‘Tell
Paul Manning not to stop fighting to
get Mary back, if he has to die do¬
ing it.’”
“How—how am I to go about it?”
“I should think it might be rather
difficult,” said David dryly. “I con¬
fess it’s hard for me to see the justice
of a Divine Providence that snatches
Sylvia from Austin who worshiped the
ground she walked on, and lets you
treat Mary like—”
Something in Paul's face stopped
him abruptly. “Well, I suppose Provi
dence sees a good many things we
ignorant mortals don’t,” he ended.
“Yes," said Paul slowly, “I guess
it does. Do you remember saying to
me a while ago that as long as a man
had a woman like Sylvia, of course
he’d make her his first consideration
as long as he could? Maybe the time
had come for Austin to make some
thing else his first consideration. May¬
be he’s needed a lot more in France
than he realized. Perhaps it took a—
a tragedy like that to show him how
much he was needed.”
For a momeut David stared silently
at the hoy. He was too surprised at
such conclusions reached from such a
source to give utterance to speech.
“I think you’re right,” he said at
last. “But Austin isn’t the only one,
you know, who’s needed in France
just now."
“I know,” said Paul. “I’ve been
thinking that over, too—what you said
about the Foreign legion. I’ll be up
tomorrow night to have you look me
over.”
“Good for you! About eight? I
shall be off myself pretty soon, now.
I waited before signing up until—after
Sylvia’s time, because Austin begged
me to do so. Well, I'll see you to¬
morrow night! Meanwhile, there are
probably lots of little things you can
find to do for Mary, if you really
want to!”
As David drove away, he found ho
could not get Paul and his unexpected
sentiments out of his mind. “Darned
if I don’t believe Sylvia was right
about him. as usual,” he reflected.
“The phase that he’s been passing
through has been pretty unattractive,
Lord knows, but it may have been
just a phase. If only he hadn't lost
Mary— Bat if he hadn’t, he never
would have started to think again—he
was too lazy. Well, it’s all beyond
me.”

JESUS ASSERTS HIS KINGSHIP
LESSON TEXT—Mark 11:1-33.
GOLDEN TEXT—Rejoice greatly, O
daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter
of Jerusalem; behold, thy King cometh
unto thee; he is just, and having salva¬
tion; lowly, and riding upon an ass,
and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Zech. 9:9.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Praising Jesus.
JUNIOR TOPIC—King of All Kings.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP¬
IC —Acknowledging Christ as Kin*.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP¬
IC —The Lordship of Jesus.
I. Jesus Officially Presented to the
Jewish Nation as Their King (vv.
1 - 11 ).
It is hardly proper to designate this
the “triumphal entry” for it was only
so to outward appearance. It was rath¬
er tlie promised Messiah publicly of¬
fering himself to the Jewish nation as
the king.
1. The preparation (vv. 1-5).
a. Two disciples sent to bring the
colt (vv. 1-3). Jesus told them just
where to find it and how to answer
the owner's inquiry.
b. The obedience of the disciples
(vv. 4-G). Without asking the reason
whj, they went at Christ's bidding.
The command may have seemed
strange and unreasonable, but they
rendered explicit obedience.
2. The entry into Jerusalem (vy.
7-10).
a. The disciples put their garments
upon the colt, and Jesus sat upon it
(v. 7). This action showed their rec¬
ognition of Jesus as their Messiah, the
King (II Kings 9:13).
b. The action of the multitude (vv.
8. 9). Some spread their garments in
the way. Others who had no garments
to spare threw down branches. This
entry was in fulfillment of a prophecy
uttered some five hundred years be¬
fore (Zech. 9:9). They uttered the
very cry which the prophet predicted.
Since the prediction of the first com¬
ing was thus literally fulfilled, we can
be assured that those concerning his
second coming will likewise have lit¬
eral fulfillment. The prophecy of Zech.
14:3-ll will be Just as literally ful¬
filled as was that of Zech. 9:9.
c. The action of Jesus (v. 11).
Upon entering the temple he looked
round upon nil things, but as It was
eventide, he with the twelve withdrew
to Bethany.
II. Jesus Exercising Kingly Authority
(vv. 12-19).
1. The barren fig tree cursed (vv.
12-14). The fig tree Is typical of the
Jewish nation. The fruit normally ap¬
pears on the fig tree ahead of the
leaves. The presence of the leaves is
assurance of fruit. This was an acted
parable of Christ’s judgment on Israel
for pretension to being the chosen
people without the fruits thereof.
2. The temple cleansed (vv. 15-19).
For the various sacrifices many oxen,
sheep, and doves were needed. It was
impracticable for people from distant
parts to bring their sacrifices with
them. They brought money, therefore,
and bought the animals needed. This
privilege was provided in the Jewish
law (Deut. 14:24-26). In such cases
exchange was necessary. However,
when evil men used it as an oppor¬
tunity for gain, it became an offense
to God. It defiled his bouse. Jesus
made a scourge of cords and drove
out the money changers (John 2:15),
overthrowing their tables and pour¬
ing out their money. By this act he
declared himself to be the Lord of the
temple, and one with God. The scribes
and chief priests grasped the mean¬
ing thereof, for they were aroused to
murderous hate and sought to destroy
him.
HI. Jesus’ Authority Challenged (vv.
27-33).
1. By whom (vv. 27, 28). The .chief
priests, the scribes, and the elders
demanded that he show by what au¬
thority he accepted the honors of the
Messiah and by whom he was given
the right to cast out the money
changers.
2. Jesus’ answer (vv. 29, 30). He
responded to their challenge by a
question which placed them in a di¬
lemma. Since John was his forerun¬
ner, the commission of John and Jesus
had the same source. If John's com¬
mission was from heaven, Christ's
commission was from heaven likewise.
If they had accepted John’s message,
they would have been ready to accept
his. They were powerless to destroy
John because the people accepted
John as having been sent from
heaven.
3. The answer of the chief priests
and scribes (vv. 31-33). Perceiving the
force of the dilemma in which they
were placed, they confessed that they
did not know the source of John’s
commission. These rulers had no af¬
fection for Jesus so they rejected his
message and sought to destroy him.

sion of faith, was, “I am reading the

white clothes we want. Put- the
white clothes to soak the night be¬

lukewarm suds, first removing any

It is easy to make suds witli granu¬

and swish for a second with the

The next morning make hot suds
with tlie granulated soap in the tub

work them around thoroughly in the
suds. Be sure to use enough soap
to have lasting suds. If the clothes
are very much soiled use fresh suds
—clean suds are needed to remove
dirt. Then wring the clothes into
hot rinse water, work around thor¬

Colored articles which you are

much soiled, if they are soaked for
twenty minutes in lukewarm suds.
Never soak unfast colors at all.
Granulated soap is ideal for colored
tilings, for it dissolves quickly and
gives rich, creamy suds which gently
remove dirt, protecting colors.
Colored fabrics which are even
slightly unfast should be washed and
dried quickly.
