Already she was aware of anxiety to grasp at excuses for him, to : comfort the ache in her heait. with the thought that she was according charity to a dear transgressor, already she felt her strength to resist being sapped, flesh and spirit succumbing anew to the spell , he knew too well how to weave. | The scales hung long in trembling. They turned only when Summerlad, unj wisely, losing patience, sought to take I by storm the lips she had cot yet made ,up her mind to surrender, and thus aroused resistance till then dormant. With an ease that in a queer, d.-tacked way she found surprising, she managed jto break his embrace. Nevertheless the effort left her faint. She faltered to tiie ’ fireplace and rested a hand on the rnnn- . tel, her forehead upi n the hand. Lynn ; followed, stood by her side. Over and ; over he murmured gently: "Linda, Lln- - da.

In ti ■■ same instant he heard a heavy, crashing noise he couldnt’ account for. An inhuman sound It. shook the room, beat deafening!}’ upon one's ears. As if someone ha ] overturned a heavy p of furniture, only no one had. Certainly he hadn't, certainly Lucinda hadn't.

As the din of those three shots lost ■ w< ight and volume, a thin shouting leonine audible from *OOIO p-dot outside t the house, and Nolly Marqul-i, with the sweep of a fury, to r • y s burning like black opals, broke thr ■ igh the nmglngs n> the window and pulp'd up with iis'ol leveled ; ' in! blank al Lucinda's >r- ost.

that swaying combat; while Bel clung to the woman's arm, muttering and panting in futile efforts to wrest her weapon away; while Nelly clawed, bit, kicked, pounded her free fist repeatedly Into Bel's face and wrenched madly at her captive wrist. Os a sudden, from her hand a spiteful tongue of fire licked out at Bel, his right arm flailed back and fell useless, agony convulsed his features. Free, the woman bounded away and with a laugh of maniac glee swung the pistol to bear upon Ids bead. Without knowing what she did, Lucinda flung herself upon Nelly's arm and bore it down. With deflected muzzle tho pistol exploded for the lust time. Dropping it, Nelly turned on Lucinda and dealtb with her as might a madwoman. Impressions grew confused beyond assortment, of flopping wildly this way and that, of hot breath beating into her face, of her bare flesh suffering a rain of cruel blows. Thrown off without warning, how she couldn't guess, she felt herself reeling back, tripping, falling. Something struck the b.r k of In r head a stunning blow, and !>' e knew flickering nausea while dense night like a moving cloud on every hand closed in upon her. Choking and coughing, she unclosed her eyes upon the vision of Bel's face. A hand holding a bottle of smelling salts dropped away from her n js<*. Bel saluted to r reviving Intelligence with an even growl: “Y'ou'll do row, I guess. Try to pull yourself together.

That's all we can toil till the 6urgcoa gets here.” “What became of—her?” "Got away clean, worse luck I —ducked past uie and through the window like a shot." Summerlad lay where ho had fallen, on the far bide of that piece of furniture. His face, upturned to the staring light, was like a thing of sculptured Ivory, expressionless and blanched. The shirt beneath the Cowered dressing gown was hideously blotted. "You think • * • O Bel! do you really think he will live?” "No fear," Bel sneered.

Finally Raggedy | AihJ.v took his arms from around the j Banana flavored candy deer’s neck and storied to scratch his rag head, but no j sooner had he done this, than he flow off ; the deer’s back and hit the legs of tho | green hippopotomtiH lti back. The green | hjppopotomus was made of Lime Candy | and was very brittle, so when Raggedy ! Andy struck against his brittle legs, they \ snapped right in two and the green lllppopotomuH and Raggedy Andy flow from the whirling Minco Flo Merry-go-Round ami went spinning herd over heels across the Magic l ark almost to the cookie field. Raggedy Andy sat up nnd rubbed Ills head. Not that Raggedy Andy had been hurt, for you know that was impossible.

Our First Year CHAPTER LXIII. Jessie Langdon Snubs Me—But I Turn the Tables BY A BBIDK.
Before I was married, I never Imagined there would be storms In our first year, or any other for that matter. But the lightning Hashed below my horizon for most of our trip, and I was glad to get heme again. Bonny spent much time with me after our return. Her Immediate interest was tho management of a morning bridge party 1 was getting up for Jessie Langdon and other wives of men in tins office. Bonny said she eamo to help but I felt sure she stayed to hear me talk about Bart They had agreed not to be engaged, she said she had urged an elopement, but Bart simply wouldn't. Os course her heart was almost broken. She had found true love so completely satisfying. After Bart, as she had long ago hinted to me, she never could listen to any other man making love. When her father came home, maybe he could manage Bart. Her daddy could manage anybody. jack didn't approve of my morning bridge. 1 found that out too late alter 1 had invited my guests. Jack said we simply couldn’t afford to keep up with the office crowd. That speech proved to me Jack was pretty melancholy. In fact, he came home a little bluer each nlcht—a little quieter. Not even chess amused him.

WOMAN’S PARTY MAKES SURVEY OF SEX’S NEEDS Gather Statistics on Rights of Women in All States. BY CONSTANCE DRF.XEL. WASHINGTON, June S.—ln the heated arguments pro and contra which have developed among women's organizations here on the question of the National Woman's Party equal rights program, not much has been said about the study and the earnest digging up of facts which Is general at tho Woman's Party headqua rters. Tho result of this study being carried on by the 'egal research department of the Woman's Party will be the first comprehensive picture of the position of woman in the laws of the United States ever made. • When about a year ago the Woman’s Party decided to remove legal diserimi r nation against women, Alice Paul, vie® president of tho party said the first in such a campaign must be the getting together of accurate facts on Just wlyit those discriminations were. Everybody knew they existed to a greater or less extent in the laws of all the States, but no one had ever collected In one statutes, court decisions and legal evidence showing exactly t9e of women In each of the States." $ 18-nee (tie establishment s>f a iwsl research department under Mrs. Burnita Shelton Matthews of the District of Columbia bar, who with two assistants is currying on this Immense task. Miss Paul tells the writer tho establishment of tldi department is a refutation to the criticism the Woman’s Party which did the picketing for suffrage, ia more in;restod in propaganda than in facts. Miss Paul herself at present is studying law,. cramming In two years’ work in one at a local law school so sha may feel better qualified to understand the legal discriminations against women, Mrs. Matthews, in speaking of the work of her department, said: “Discriminations wonpn in the States we have studied fall Into three big classes. First, the laws which discriminate against the mother in her rights over her children. Second, laws which discriminate against the wife in regard to property rights, the right to contract, tho right to control of her earnings and tho right to establish her own legal residence. Third, laws which limit women in their rights as citizens, such as laws preventing women from serving on Juries and holding certain political offices. “No State ig entirely free from all discriminations except Wisconsin, where the Woman’s Party equal rights bill be-camo a law last summer.” Not only is the Woman’s Party studying the status of women In the laws of the various .States, but It also plans to undertake the most detailed survey of welfare legislation form women workers ever made. This last is in order to . meet the criticism the equal r'rhis program would Impair welfare legislation protecting women. Mrs. O. 11. P. Belmont, president of the National Woman's Party, has issued a call to members <f its national council to meet at her estate in Port Washington. Long Island. N. Y.. on June 22. to discuss plans for the immediate remodeling of the new headquarters recently dedicated here. Avery pretty compliment ha? been paid *o our only corgr*-=?w man. Miss AT. 9 Roberts in of Oklahoma, ! v asking her to be the Pr. sidect's representative a: the Rose Festival to take place in Portland, Ore., June 20. The request came from the President, who appointed Miss Robertson when he found ! e could not accept the Invitation himself. Miss Robertson will leave Washington on June 12, going immediately to Portland, but on her wry back she hopes to visit her sister in California. And then, being so mu- h in demand, as a speaker, it is doubtful whether she can return East without having to stop for at least several speo- hes. Tn fact, cmr only Congresswoman finds it hard to stay long enough in Washington to attend to her duties ia Congress. She i m go In g to New England, where she will be present ard speak at the reunion of the Worcester family In Boston June 0.. The Sheppard-Towner maternity ami Infancy act is brought to the fore by announcement of the appointment of Dr. Ethel M. Watters of San Francisco, consultant In the Administration of this act by the children's bureau. She becomes n member of the staff of the children's bureau of the Department of Labor, which Is charged with the duty of administering the Federal funds appropriated for promoting the welfare and hygiene of maternity and Infancy lri cooperatio#) with the States who accept the act by appropriating like amounts.

I didn’t tell him that Jessie Langdon, after accepting my invitation, had decided to leave gt once for the mountains. And after she withdrew, all the others were unable to accept. To Jack, It would look only like a tempest in a teapot, but to me these cards of regret hud a deep significance. I knew Jack was tremendously popular with the men at the office. And such being the case, it appeared I had failed to make a lilt with the wives. “Goodness! Isn't Jessie Langdon the little snob!’’ murmured our frank Bonny when 1 spread the cards of regret beforo her. “She could have come—l’ll bet you my crystal cigaret case —you know Bart won’t let me smoke! "Say, Teg! 1 see a way out. I'll sis Jessie for once. You know Florence Carter is coming to visit me next month? I'll wire her to come now. Everybody will be crazy to say they've met her. So you'll invite her —as my guest. And wateli Jessie Langdon turn green.” Florence Carter was a Senator's daughter, so 1 asked quite a crowd. And Jessie Langdon and the rest of the office wives who followed her lead were furious because they hadn’t met tho Senator's daughter. And they blamed me—Mary Smith told mel i (To i>e Continued.)
