Married Life Fourth Year

BY MABEL HERBERT URNER. Waren had decided to come home by train, and the day had turned out to be uncomfortably warm. At New .Bedford, where they changed from the boat to the train, the heat seemed almost Intolerable and the stuffy-little train without a chair car. which ran as far as Providence, was little better., "We have nearly an hour to wait in Providence," he remarked finally, "so we mig 't as well have lunch there." "All right, dear," said Helen, trying to force a little enthusiasm into her voice. "I think it wili be nicer to do that than to eat on the train. I wonder If the brakeman could open this window for us, it would be so much rooler." . Til see if I can open it. What they "nt the windows closed for is more ihan I can understand." And Warren tugged at the window, which remained ;bsinately shut. "Can we have this window open, sonductor?" as the conductor came through and stopped to watch his efforts. "I don't believe I can manage it for you," he said, obiligingly coming into the seat and trying to force It open. "Hardly any of the windows in this train are ever opened, and they get tuck." ".Looks as if we'd have to give it up as a bad job," remarked Warren finally, and Helen smiled faintly at the humor of the situation, in spite of the fact that she had never been so uncomfortable in her life. Warren had bought some magazines on the boat and Helen took one up and began to look through it listlessly. One of the stories attracted her in ipite of herself, and she began to read at first mechanically, then with real interest, forgetting the heat of the day as she became engrossed in the plot. It about a girl on a train, a girl who of course unusually attractive, whom circumstances had forced to travel alone. She fas having a mm of thrilling adventures, one of which concerned a good-looking young man and a lost dress suit case. TMIY HAVE TO HUNT FOR A LUNCH COUNTED. The story ended in the conventional manner, and she had not enough ambition to begin another, so she rested her head against the hot red plush and closed , her eyes. She had not , slept very well last night and the motion of the train gradually soothed her nerves. She had really been sound asleep when they reached Providence, and as she followed Warren into the station she felt better. "Feel hungry?" he said, turning as they waited to check their bags. "Not very, dear. I'd like something cold to drink." "Worst thing In the world for you; you'll feel better when we've had some lunch. I don't think there's a restaurant connected with the station, but I'll find out." In V e station they found nothing but s lunch counter. "There surely must be a place near the station where we could have a table," suggested Helen, who hated the idea of sitting up at the counter for anything to eat. "We'll see what we can do. Ill ask this boy selling papers. He ought to know of some place." "Hey, sonny, do you know of a place near the station where we could get something to eat?" "Well," he said, finally, "there's a fine place around the corner where they have tables, name is Holman. . Youll see it up over the door." Warren handed the boy a dime and he and Helen departed. It wasn't very hard to find, for as soon as they reached the end of the block the name Holman stared at them from a large awning. "Might as well try it, I suppose; the costume surr coat WITH CASAQUIN .The coat of the costume suit here ihown, makes a small casaquin crossing at front over a waistcoat of white linen and far tens low with a small flat tow of violet moire finished by a passementerie tassel, below which the sides curve nway after the cutaway style.

clawing wildly . at crumbling pieces, He was skimming along on his skates late one afternoon when a bend in the river revealed a group of girls on the narrow strip of ice he must pass. Without a moment's hesitation hotels in Providence are nowhere near the station." The place was filled with business men and there was only one other woman in the place, but Helen and Warren were shown to a clean little table In the corner with an electric fan buzzing away overhead, and a tidy waitress came up in a few minutes and briskly asked what they would have to eat. "I'm hungry," declared Warren; "guess 111 have a steak and some French fried potatoes." The thought of hot food made Helen almost faint; she didn't feel as if she could eat a thing. "What'll you have a salad? All right, that's better tor you anyway; sure that's enough?" ' "A club sandwich," turning to the waitress, "and some hot tea. I guess that's all." "You're not going to have any of that iced stuff," in answer to Helen's protests. "Drink some water If you want it, but you're going to have some hot tea; then you can tell me if you don't feel better." Their order came and Warren began to eat heartily. No amount of hot weather could stop him on the eating question. Helen at her club sandwich with real enjoyment and began to feel better. Warren insisted on the cup of hot tea, and although it made her very warm for a few minutes she was glad after a while that Warren had ordered it. He drank hot. coffee himself and tcld Helen he felt ten per cent cooler when he was through. Pay at the desk," said the little waitreas, picking up Helen's gloves which ,1)bbV fallen to the floor, and Warren left a substantial tip under his plate as they got up to go. "Good service," he remarked to Helen as they strolled slowly up to the station, "and as good a little meal as I've had in some time for the money." MUCH NICER THAN EATING AT A LUNCH COUNTER. "Much nicer than eating at a lunch counter, don't you think so. Warren?" "They're not so bad; lots of women eat there, nice women, too," noticing Helen's incredulous smile; that's a fact." "But it looks so public. I should think they'd build a really nice restaurant at a large station like this: it would pay." "I don't know as it would. Most people are willing to take a bite at the lunch counter if they don't eat on the train. A large restaurant might be a drug on their hands." They had entered the station and Helen sat down and waited while Waren went over to get seats in the chair car. He came back in a few moments with their bags and announced that their train would be in soon. "We might as well go downstairs. I'm not sure where the New York trains come in, and there's no need of losing any time looking for the right platform." There was quite a crowd waiting for the New York express, which came thundering !n a few minutes later, and HIene ondered where they had all gone, for the chair car was nearly empty. "A great many of them get off at New London and don't bother to get chairs," Warren explained. "Are you comfortable? We ought to have a pretty good trip into New York. I'm going to try to' get a little sleep."

First place in the Saturday Afternoon league has resolved itself into a fight between the Easthaven and IJie A. S. M. teams. The result of Saturday's games places these two teams in the lead of all the others, as they are tied for first place. The defeat of the Ad-Hill aggregation by the hospital men Saturday afternoon forced the Machinists into fourth place. This game was the most exciting one of the series played Saturday. The Easthaven team won by the score of 2 to 1. The playing of both teams was good and has shown much improvement over that o several weeks ago. Lucas was counted on to win the game for the Ad-Hills, but the hospital men seemed to have little trouble in finding him for enough hits to win the game. Seeders Held Place, The Seeders literally wiped the Natcos off the field, winning their game at Natco park by the score of 15 to 4. Taggart pitched good ball for the A. S. M., and succeeded in holding his opponents to a low number of hits. By this victory the Seeders were enable to retain their position at the top of the ladder. Bailey proved too much for the Robinsons at the playgrounds, with the result that the Wayne Works team won the game by the score of 4 to 1. The game was won in the last innings, when Kuhlenbeck blew up, allowing several hits that were fatal. The game lasted but seven inings.

Two, men were dead today and several others suffered from injuries received during a severe electrical storm which swept over this city. Lieutenant William H. Shannon, 50, a member of the fire department, and Charles Seams, 49, were both killed when they came in contact with live wires blown down by the storm. Mrs. Louisa Smith, an undertaker, was injured while embalming the bodies of two women, when lightning struck the building in which she was working. Falling debris rendered her unconscious, but she was finally revived. John Allen, a mechanic, was killed by a live wire, which had been blown down by the storm in Aurora. The storm which was of cyclonic properties, unroofed several buildings and badly damaged crops in that locality.

CROP CONDITIONS SUFFER IN JULY BY LEASED WIRE. WASHINGTON, Aug. 24 War in Europe and unfavorable conditions for crop growth during July made the aggregate outlook on August 1 in the United States and other parts of the world less favorable than was expected, according to the farmer's bulletin issued by the department of agriculture today. The composite condition of American crops on August 1 was 2 per cent, below the normal ten year average, the bulletin states. There was improvement in the crops during July in the Atlantic states, Michigan and Wisconsin and in the mountain states, in other parts of the country the crops have deteriated materially. The phenomenal wheat crop in Kansas goes far to improve the general situation, it was stated. "The level of prices paid producers of the United States for the principal crops decreased about 0.16 per cent, during July, but on August 1, the index figure of crop prices was about 9.7 per cent, higher than a year ago," says the bulletin.

HIS ITCHING ECZEMA GONE RESINQL DID IT Davenport, Iowa, May 2, 1914 "I had a severe, torturing ca3e of eczema on my feet, hands, arms and body for about four months, and I suffered untold misery. The itching was something awful. In a couple of days it spread all over me with small blisters and then formed a raw mass of sores. I tried , , and many other reemdies and prescription, but I only grew worse. Finally I read of Resinol Ointmeut and Resinol Soap and commenced usins it. I got relief from the first treatment Resinol STOPPED THK ITCHING INSTANTLY, and I could sOeep the first night. I used four or five jars of Resinol Ointment and soap also, and I am entirely cured of that disease eczema, and I can cheerfully boost Resinol." (Signed) G. W.
