Married Life the Second Year By MABEL HERBERT URNER. "Here, let's look at this! Warren paused befor a large, white
Btone front apartment house. There ; was the usual sign, "Apartments to let." "Superintendent within." They ; went through the long tiled corridor, , with its artificial marble walls. In the : rear was a switchboard, before which lolled a colored boy in brass buttons. , "We'd like to look at some apart- ; inents here." j "Yes, Kir. I'll get the superintend- ; cnt." Pulling out a cord and inserting 1 it in one of the holes above. "Hello! j Some one to look at apartments." I Jn a few moments the superintend- j cnt came up from the basement. I "What apartments have you?" j asked Warren. j "We've three vacant now two on ; the third and one on the eighth in i front." He showed them a third floor apart-1 ment first. The rooms were small and j badly lighted and overlooked a nar- j row court. The floors had been fresh- j ly varnished; an odor of paint and tur- j
pentine filled the place. "This won't do," announced Warren after a hasty glance around. "We want more air and light. Let's see the one in the front." "Now this is more like it," said Warren. "What's the rent here?" $1100 a year." Helen glanced at Warren with a little gesture of despair. "Have you no front apartments for less than that?" he asked. "No sir. All these front ones are the same, but if you come in now, you get the rent free till October first." Warren shrugged his shoulders. "That wouldn't be any inducement. ' We've h lease where we are until then. Who are the agents for this house?" "Clyne Johnson." "And I suppose if one got down to business they'd make a shave on that rent for a two-year's lease?" The man shook his head. "I'm afraid
not, sir. We've no trouble in getting our prices ,and this is the only front one that's vacant." When a few moments laxer they left the building," Helen said anxiously. "Don't you see dear, that was over $100 a month. I'm afraid we can't get anything for $70 that's anywhere near as good as what we have." "That's absurd. We've only looked I at one place. And I'm not going to 'ewelter through another summer in that apartment, you can depend on that. We'll get something with well ventilated outside rooms, if we have to go to the Bronx. Here, we'll try this one," stopping before a house in which i colored boy stood in the door. "They haven't so many brass buttons on their darkey and I'll wager they're not asking so much for their flats." "How much are they?" "I don't know, sir, the janitor ain't here, but I can show em to you." He took them up to a front apartment on the top floor. But this was a much less attractive house than the other. The woodwork was cheaper, the mantels and fixtures garish in design, and the hideous wall papers of the character of former tenants. "Oh, Warren, we couldn't stand this at any price." "Well, you've got good air here and a good view of the river, this overtops the house across the way. You can paper to suit yourself." "Oh, yes, I know, but the woodwork and the mantels and the whole atmosphere of the house! Did you notice the halls as we came up? "But Warren, just look look at this bathroom." opening the door and showing the small tub and cheap tarnished fittings. The boy who had gone to answer the elevator bell came back now and Stood at the door. "So vou don't know the rent here,"
asked Warren again. "No sir. I don't know exactly, but I think about $75." "Seventy-five dollars for that place!" JJelen exclaimed when they reached the street. "And our beautifully fitted apartment for $70! Oh, Warren, how can you think of .such a thing." . "But our apartment is jammed against a brick wall, and it's been hotter than Hades. What we're after now 1b more air, even if we have to take lees style with it." Although their partment had been Tery warm this summer it was an excellent house and beautifully appointed and finished. And Helen wanted to stay she shrank from the thought of leaving. To her It meant
o much more than Just "an apartment." Jt was here where Winifred Tiad been born no other place could ver mean so much. They went from place to place until Helen was almost worn out.. But they could find nothing within their price that was anything near as attractive as their own apartment. "Dear, I'm so tired," said Helen finally. "I don't believe I can do any more today." "Nonsense, we haven't done much. You'll have plenty of time to rest. We're up here now, and we ought to eee what's here. It's not an easy thing for me to take an afternoon off. Here, this place seems promising let's have a look at it."

that needs particular prctise in this firs ipart of the dance. It is a gTeat deal like skipping with an exggerated pull backward on each step, and is not t all difficult to accomplish. It must be remembered that the man alone does this fish walk, while the girl
simply walks back in time to the
music. Thus the fish walk is really th only departure from the ordinary trot in this part of the dance. When beginning to learn this
dance, remember to first of a.l P-rtect ot:r turkey trot :ni. this is most iniportr.t. No one who does not turkey snouid atten pt to learn any variations, it would be metvly a waste of time. Then pet into the sp rit of the tliir.g and let yourself go. This is. after all. the r al secret of dancing. Absolute al andor.n:-nt to the movements of the uaiuv and the ability to really enjoy oneself. After one has all this for a background, the Futurist Twirl' itself is a thing of easy attainment, and the next movements can be more easily explained and understood

other r.ood piece of imai for roasf beef is the top sirloin, which is not so
cheap but is recommended because it
lias no waste. The next important item on the meat bill is chops, either lamb, pork or veal chop. Umli chops, however, are the kind mostly demanded, and of course the demand is for loin and rib chops, the most expensive. There is the same solution as with steaks buy shoulder chops, they cost less and are sweeter. This same principle again applies to pork chops. The shoulder chops are very sweet nd tender, and the butcher will sell them
for less: but very few people know

about any dance is to base it entirely upon the turkey trot tempo. Almost anything can be done in the way of variations, if one has the regular turkey trot swing to begin with. So it cau easily be seen that anything in the way of a new dance is absolutely impossible it is simply left to the skill and originality of the inventor to so combine certain steps that a dance is devised which seems an absolutely new departure from all old methods. My new dance I have called the "Futurist Twirl," but it is nothing more nor less than a combination of the tango and turkey trot with greatly exaggerated steps. However, the rapidity which comes with practice makes a very unusual effect, and it is possible for anyone who dances to perfect this whole dance without any trouble at all. Everything in the "Futurist Twirl" is based, upon a system of eight counts. So, if this makes an impression in the beginning it will simplify matters in the end. Always remember that each position and set of steps end with eight counts. In the first position the man and girl stand side by side, the man with his right arm around the girl's waist and her left hand in his, and eight regular turkey trot steps are taken down the room in this position. Then the position is rapidly changed, and the man and girl take the regular position for dancing, but with the man's left and the girl's right hands held out. Always remember this fact, it gives more freedom and yet a bet-

ter feeling of security to both dancers, and besides it looks better. Then comes the regular fish walk, with an exaggerated stride on the part of the man. This is done in the regular turkey trot or tango position. The walk can be practised by placing the right foot
forward and dragging it back on the ball of the foot, and then giving place to the left and going through the same motions again. The girl in the meantime walks back eight steps in tempo, the regular turkey trot walk, with the man. The fish walk, in an exaggerated style, is the only thing

I STREET STORIES i . Cigarette and cigar smokers will find one of the latest novelties a real convenience, that of an asbestos pocket in the veot or coat, so that upon entering a theatre or meeting a friend on the street, one may shove the burning ember down in the asbestos pocket. There it will slowly burn away until it is removed. H. H. Daily, of the Douglas" Tailoring company, in the Westcott hotel building, is the first Richmond man to introduce this fad. A number of the "betweens' 'of the town's societyare equiping their new "winter's" with the new pocket. How convenient they will be to the Youthful baek-of-thetnce smoker.
Fleetwood. Pa.' During the Change of Life I was hardly able to be around
at alu I always had a headache and I was so dizzy and nervous that I had no rest at night. Tha flashes of heat were so bad sometimes that I did not know what to do. " One day a friend advised me to take I.ydia E. rinkham'a Vegetable Com
pound and it made me a strong well woman. I am very thankful that I followed my friend's advice and I shall recommend it as long as I live. Before I took the Compound I was always sickly and now I have not had medicine from a doctor for years. You may publish my letter." Mrs. Edwako B. IIlLBERT, Fleetwood, Pa. Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches, backaches, dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable appetite, weakness and inquietude, and dizziness, are promptly heeded by intelligent women who are approaching the period in life when woman's great change may be expected. Lydia E. Tinkham's Vegetable Compound invigorates and strengthens th female organism and builds up the weakened nervous system. It ha carried many women safely through this crisis.
