I RETAIN A LAWYER. was still turning over Mariam's •tatem tfnts in my mind and wondering if I sh c»uId, indeed, be able to escape Mr. Gordon's attentions, or, i£ not, how •oon ^he matter would have to be disposed of, when I received a letter from a firm of lawyers in New York setting forth the status of Arthur's affairs.
The statement proved a revelation to me. In the column which gave Arthur's assets, it was shown that he owned |800,000 worth or stock in the A. B. C. company. Yet, when the total liabilities had been subtracted from the total assets, 1 saw that Arthur had left me virtually frothing. There were various figures showing that notes were outstanding, but there was nothing to indicate what these notes stood for or rhy they were given. I •••, I puzzled over the labyrinth of figures until my head ached and then decided to lay the whole matter before an old lawyer friend of our family.
The old gentleman greeted me with the kindliness which always had been a striking quality with him and, still holding my hand, led me into his private office. There he gave me a seat Oear his old-fashioned dask, took the paper which I handed him and with great deliberation adjusted his spectacles and glanced hurriedly over it. Then he read the letter which the New York lawyers had written me and went back to the financial statement, frowning as he puzzled through the various 'memoranda.
When he haiJ gone completely over the statement a second time he allowed the paper to fall to his knee and gazed thoughtfully out of the window. 'Finally he turned toward me. "Tills statement shows that you will receive vary little from your husband's •state."
I bowed. "That is the same conclusion that I tseached."
Mr. Halstead looked at me from beneath his shaggy eyebrows, twirled his

gold-rimmed spectacles in his hand and pursed up his lips. "Do these notes mentioned here represent losses in business?" "I do not know, but I am quite sure that his business was very profitable. The A. B. C. company has been filling orders for munitions for foreign governments." "Ah! Then he did not lose anything In that way?" '1 do not think he lost anything in any way, Mr. Halstead. Arthur had nothing except his salary when we married. I do not know where he got the $200,000 worth of A. B. C. company stock unless it was given to him by Mr. Henderson, a banker friend, who financed the company." And then I explained to him something of the events leading up to Arthur's promotion to the presidency of the A. B. C. company. "That may explain the entire mat

COREY WANT8 NO SECURITY AND H18 STENOGRAPHER SCENTS A SCANDAL. "This has been a very difficult fhonth with us." Mrs. Film ore looked down at the handkerchief she was nervously pleating. "My dear friend," Mr. Corey spoke feelingly, "you are distressing yourself needlessly." The tone sent the blood mounting to her temples. "The sum you owe on the desk is a mere trifle and I beg of you to take the desk and present It to your husband on his birthday as you planned. Pay me when it is convenient." Mr. Corey ,/*"jent. forward and gazed into her face. "When the desk was here as secur-
"Nonsense!" Interrupted her companion. "Are we no friends?" "Friendship* and business should •ever be mixed. I regret^ exceedingly that I bought the desk.

Mr. Corey started to speak, but Kieanor raised her hand and he settled back in his chair to allow her to finish. "I have here a valuable bracelet that belonged to my mother." She drew from her handbag a morocco case and opened it. Inside the box lay coiled a gold sergent with emerald eyes. "1 will leave this as security for the loan on the desk." "My dear Mrs. Filmore, pray do not speak of such a thing." Mr. Corey was evidently very much distressed. "I prefer to leave it. It is more businesslike." Eleanor placed the box on his desk. "I cannot have you going without your jewels. There is no need of any security for that trifling loan." Kieanor had risen as if she considered the interview olosed. "I ne\'er wear the bracelet.' Pray regard it merely as security for a debt." She walked to the door and the man embarrassed in his turn followed her with the box in his hand. "Please do not insist on my keeping this." Mr. Corey was extending the box toward her when she glanced over her shoulder and saw the eyes of the stenographer fixed on them. She was leaning half way out of her chair to get a good view of them, but when her employer turned to see what had caused the angry color to rise in Eleanor's face she was very busy typ-

ter." Mr. Halstead said finally. "In refinancing the company Mr. Henderson may have .desired to have your husband appear as a large stockholder, and with this in view he must have given him the stock and taken his notes for their value. You will see that the valfce of the stock and the amount of the notes balance." "I think your guess Is probably correct." "But here is an Item which is not so easily understood. It is the life insurance. He carried $100,000 life insurance. I do not understand why this should he swallowed up in the estate." "I cannot help you to explain it," I told him. "Well, somebody. shall explain it," the old gentleman announced firmly. "I am going to New York tonight to look into the matter."

ing a letter he had given her before Mrs. Filmcre entered. "It does not seem quite friendly for you to insist on leaving security for that small sum," he continued, turning again to his caller. "I prefer to leave it," was the quiet answer as with heightened color she went down the steps.
The stenographer covertly watched her employer aa he opened the box and fingered the bracelet before closing the box and locking it in his safe. "What is going on between them?" thought the girl. "She comes here and seems so embarrassed and he speaks in such low tones and looks at her constantly. I shall watch to see wh%^ is up."
Eleanor was angrily revolving the whole miserable business in her mind. "That impudent girl was watching us as if she thought there was some very delicious secret to be discovered. Fortunately I shall not need to go there again till I take the money and get the bracelet I shall pay that debt this month if I have to stand the grocer off to do it."

At The Movies
By O'Brien.
If you happened to be sitting In one of the, back seats at the Orpheum last nlsht you might have overheard this conversation. "I don't like this flfcki as well as the novel from which It Is taken. I consider "The Inner Shrine' better than Basil King's other big success The vV'ild Ollv "Oo you, ndeed! And do you know whe Bazil King is? Her real name Is Natalia Tobbenack and she has lived all of her life In Marshall, 111." "Do tell'" "Ana she takes care of her parents and her aged uncle out of her earnings as n novelist. A cousin of Miss Tobbenack is Captain E. B. Schmidt, formerly lived in Terre Haute, but he moved to I^aporte. Tnd." 'All of which, unlike the ordinary run of conversation one hears while viewing a film was interesting and pertinent.
Not having read "Basil King's" novel 1 can make no comparison between book and film, but if the baskv people have neglected any opportunities they have certanly embraced enough to give us an hour and a quarter of good movie stuft.
Margaret Illlngton is ca«t as the wealthy American girl who marries a no-account French nobleman, though she loves an American explorer and student. Another chap over in France pays attention to the supposed to be beautiful Diane and there is a duel, during which the husband really commits suicide, thus forcing his adversary to flee. The motive for the suicide isn't made Hear in the picture though I understand it is in the b"ook. The scenes aro laid in the Maine woods, in Africa and in Paris salons Miss lilington, -who finds it harder with each succeeding year to, appear young and beautiful, is a very capable actrcss an..1, though she may not look like the Ldane of your imagination, her art triumphs over her contour.
In the supporting company are three splendid movie players, Hobert Bosworth. Jack. Holt and Elliott Dexter. 'The Inner Shrine" will be shown for the last times t6day along with a West Point film and a confedy.
"On Trial," the melodrama whtca made reputation and fortune for a younk lawyer named Breitenstein, who wrote it and added something to the bank account of Coha« and Harrits, who produced it, is now a film. In the triai scene introducing motion pictures to tell the stories supposed to bj» bullied or wheedled out of the witnesses is what mnde thir- play the big novelty of Its year. •Dramatic critics proclaimed It an innovation In theatrics. The play opened with a jourt room scene. Robert Strickland was on trial for the murder of his erstwhile friend, Gerald Trask. Ten thousand dollars in bank note.-!, missing irom Trask's home safe, was claiim^d as the motive for .the murder. Strickland acted like a maniac, proclaiming himself guilty. He did not •want a trial, even. It seemed almost certain that the death penalty would be the Inry's verdict and Strickland awaited it eagerly. As, one by one, the witnesses took the stand to testify in the trial, the scenes would revert bact to those'surrounding the murder.
The play was filmed by Essanay under direction of .Tames Young, wno is seen In the role of Gerald Trask. Little Mary McAllister, Sidney Ainsworth, Barbara Castleton and Patrick Calhoun are stars in the cast. "On Trial" will be shown at the American today, Friday and Saturday.
"The Range War." showing Indians or the war path and up to afc sorts of [devilment, is shown at the Savoy today, alon? with a Keystone comedy.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, a* they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There la only one way to cure catarrhal deafness, and that Is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafneas is caused by an Inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Euetarhian Tube. When this tube Is inflamtd you have a rumbling soend or Im-pprfr-ct h^arlnfr, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness Is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed torever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.
