/DAY, JULY 16, 1916.

In this chapter^ Roxane meets the woman who she believes is winning her husband's love. In a circumstance like this, one can easily imagine what some women would do. But Roxane is an unusual woman. Her life has been spent in doing things other women don't do. Read what follows see if you sympathize with her conduct.

I CONCLUDE THAT I AM SUPERIOR TO MRS. TANNER R. TANNER looked at me closely for an instant. "You are not well, Mrs. Pembrook^. You are very pale. May I do something for you?" "I am surprised, Mr. Tanner, that one of your sophistication should mistake the latest shade of powder for pallor. You know it is quite fashionable to be pale and to look pained." I continued to smile at him. I could not have him get an inkling of my true feeling. He must not know I was suffering. Oh, how I wished he would go! "You are quite in the fashion, then," he said, attempting a compliment. "J am sorry you will not join us. I should like to have you. I do not enjoy luncheons of this sort."

I feigned surprise. "I thought you and your wife reveled in them." "Lois does. She must have them. They are part of her life. She needs the gay things just as she needs bread to live upon. Her nature calls for them. I am only the medium through which she gets them."

He sighed. I thought I noticed that he shrugged his shoulders. He turned aside dejectedly. "Perhaps they are already here," he said. "I must look them up."

He urged me again to come and looked at me queerly when I refused. The poor man, his shoulders drooping, walked in front of me. I forgot a bit of my anguish in my sympathy for him. I was undecided. Meeting Mr. Tanner

When he was gone I sat down again, had flustered me. Just what I was to do, how I was to act, bothered me. I knew he would tell them I was in the hotel and Arthur would come for me. I did not want him to know. I would go away. I rose.

As I reached the door I hear Arthur call my name. I walked Into the street unheeding. I had not gone far before there was a hand on my shoulder. I turned and Arthur was looking into my eyes. "What are you doing here, Roxane?" he asked. ^"1 just dropped in. Don't leave your party. I am going home." "No, you are coming in with me. You are here now. You might as well stay." "I don't want to stay, Arthur. I want to go home." "You know I would not force you Roxane. I don't waut you to do anything you don't care to do, but it would be only decent now that they know you're here to come in and have luncheon. You may go nome after that, if you like. But come in and greet Mrs. Tanner. It would add a great deal of joy to the party if yon did come, and I would like it very much."

He seemed tender and sincere. Perhaps he really meant what he said. At any rate, it would be quite the deoent thing to do. I went back with him. "I am very glad you're here, Roxane," he was saying, as we walked through the corridor. "It isn't good to be away from you so long. Thjngs were getting a bit rum, anyway, and it needed some one to put a little life

ftTHIinC BOOSTERS GET IN MEMBERSHIPS

Campaign to Raise Funds to Support College Teams Gains Approval Prom Start.

Tanne Haute Is awakening to the possibility of the athletic situation of her two oolleges, as was shown by the campaign started by the Chamber of Commerce Friday to raise $5,000 to support the teams of Normal and Poly. Nearly every business man approached approved the proposition and Friday's work netted 47 members among the business men. The most pleasing feature to the two schools was the fact that most of the business mon not only purchased tickets but actually promised to go out and see what their proteges had up their sleeves for the coming' season.

When it was explained to the merchants that in order to keep up the pace set by the other Indiana schools this move was necessary they declared they were with and behind the two schools to a finish. One or two merchants who had donated to every thing

We were in the* dining-room. They were at a table in a corner. They had not seen us come in, and were sitting staring Into the dstance, evidently oblivious of each other's presence. When we reached the table they rose. Mrs. Tanner slouched over to me and put her hands on my shoulders. She was so glad to see me. So glad I had Joined them, so sure things would be lively now. Her husband was such a slow poke, and- always dampened a party so.

We took our seats. She sat opposite me. I had not said a word "I am sure-~ ou are going to like the luach I ordered," she said. "Men tell me I always order just what they like, and Mr. Pembrooke lelt the choice of things to me Here is what I havi ordered

She rambled on vacuously, telling me of the food that was coming. I did not hear her. There was too much confusion in my mind to make me conscious of her vaporings.

under the sun for the past few years classed the campaign with some of the other propositions and refused to buy tickets. One of these a little later asked for a ticket, saying he hadn't realized what the schools meant to him until he sat down and talked the matter over with his partner.

Hope to Double List.

The committee, Ed Leerver, H. A. Condit and Wayne Blgwood, handed In the following: names as the first of the Business Men's Athletic association and hope to double it by thin time next week. Spencer Ball, president of the Chamber of Commerce, is the proud owner of ticket No. 1. The others aer:

the uniqueness of the situation. Here I was with the woman I had resolved to kill. I was not certain that the expressed attitude of my husband toward her was real. I was not sure that, as an obstacle, she had existed only in my imagination, if she was really the insipid entity Arthur pictured her as he led me into the dining-room, there was nothing to fear from her. I knew that a woman had to be really interesting ahd unusual to arouse any feeling in Arthur.

She must have been aware that I stared at her. It was quite evident that I was hostile, for I felt it. Thtere was no denying her beauty. She seemed all sex and nothing else, and She must have had a wonderful appeal, even for a man like Arthur. But there was no danger. She might fascinate him for a moment, but it would be Just momentarily, She had not sufficient depth to hold him indefinitely. She was the sort of woman that a strong man would tire of quickly.

I came to this conclusion suddenly. It must have been the reaction, for I swooned.

GREENCASTLE, Ind., July 15^—It is seldom that small mouse will call out the police and cause a general disturbance, but that is what one did here last night.

FOR TRANSFUSION OF BLOOD. Argentine Surgeon Practicing In France Has New Method.

PARIS, July 10.—La Revue describes a new method of transfusion of blood, an operation often necessary under conditions which do not always allow certain precautions to be taken.

The method is due-to Professor Luis Agote, an Argentine surgeon, and successful experiments have been made before the rector of the Sorbonne, the dean of the faculty of medicine, and several professors and doctors.

Blood Is taken from the bend of the elbow of any subject willing to lend his aid and collected in a receptacle which contains a solution of neutral citrate of soda, prepared in the proportion of one gram of salt for 100 gram" of blood. This mixture prevents the blood from coagulating without destroying its vital properties, and as the citrate employed is inoffensive to the organism without danger, thus obviating the chief drawbacks to the transfusion as generally practiced.

The receptable for the blood drawn is in graduated glass with double tubing and has a large enough opening to allow the blood to fall directly into it. The end is pointed to allow the tube for injection to collect the maximum of blood without allowing air to enter. From three to five grams of solution, are placed in it, being a sufficient quantity for 300 grams of blood.
