Helen and Warren Series; Story of Their Married Life
"Thirty dollars a week?" repeated Helen. "Oh, I'm so glad for you!" "Yes, it does seem princely after three years of pounding that type writer. When I gave Mr. Richards notice he offered to raise me to fifteen." Laura's laugh was harsh. "Generous of him, wasn't it?" "You've always been so bitter against him." "Why shouldn't I be?" defiantly. "The work I did was worth more and he knew it! Now I'm through. Didn't I glory in telling him!" "But these moving picture people how did you get In touch with them?" "Mr. Carr boarded, where I did last winter. He thought then he could get me in but only as an extra. They pay $5 a day, but the work's uncertain and I was afraid to risk It. Last week he called up and said there was a chance in the regular company; to come right over and see Mr. Stanley, the director. ' ' "And he engaged you at once?" "No, I'd no . experience except that one week with the Universal. But they wereMo take some pictures in Jersey the next day, Sunday, and he said he'd try me out. I was terrified. I felt everything depended on my work that day. But it was cloudy and they didn't do much, so I had only one scene. Monday they put me in stock at thirty a week. Now it's up to me to make good." "Oh, you will," encouraged Helen warmly. "I know you will." - ' ' . "If only I had some clothes! I need an evening gown desperately. They lent me one for a supper scene, but it was a mile too big." . "Why, I'll gladly lend you any of mine." "Oh, I didn't mean that." Then impetuously. "But if you could until I have a chance to get some " "You know I'd love to. Come in here, we'll look over what I have." Her best gowns Helen kept in the large hall closet. And now she took down several from their hangers and turned them . right side out. "You've so many! enviously. "Oh, how attractive! I love this!" Laura held up a pale blue chiffon, with a knife-pleated underskirt. "That's old. I got that In London on our first trip, three years ago. Look how badly it's worn the chiffon's all pulled in front "But that wouldn't 6how in the picture. It doesn't matter'if they're soiled or worn, it's only the style and material that show." "Try it on," urged Helen. "No, sir, you can't lie THERE!" lifting Pussy Purr-Mew from the soft fluffiness of a white charmeuse. Slipping out of her skirt waist and skirt, Laura, radiantly expectant, raised the blue chiffon over her head. "Your corset cover's too high," as Helen started to hook the gown. "Wait I can turn it in." "Oh, it's so graceful and it just fits me! I'm wild about it! "It does look well. I didn't think we ere so near the same size.' "What're you two doing in there? called Warren, who always resented being left alone in the evening. "Laura's trying on some or my gowns. She may have to borrow one for the pictures." Then Impulsively, "Go let Warren see you m tnat. Aglow with excitement, Laura ran into the library. "Great!" laying down his paper "Sav. that's stunning on you! Suits von better than it does Helen." Helen knew this was true, but she shrank from having it put into words. Though they had been schoolmates, Laura, with her cloudy hair and vivid colorine. was several years younger; and. beside her, Helen felt suddenly colorless and old. When she tried on the next gown, she whirled about before the mirror, then darted off with a joyous "I want Mr. Curtis to see this one." "Turn around," commanded Warren. "Jove, you can wear Helen's clothes all right. That suits you to a T." Helen had grown very quiet. She was genuinely fond of Laura, but she could not keep back the- vague bitterness that every woman feels toward another who is ' younger and' more striking. ' As she hooked Laura Into the last gown, she glanced over her shoulder into the glass. Yes, she looked older, decidedly older. "I shouldn't think of borrowing this it's too new and fresh." - "Oh, you wouldn't hurt it." Helen tried to be generous. 1 ' ! "No no, one of the others will do just as well." This time when she ran in for war
ren's approval, Helen did not go with her. Instead she stood waiting by the dresser, slowly sticking the pins in the pincushion Into a long even row. "I've had nothing but shirt waists for so long" Laura now came in to be unhooked "it's a joy to know I can wear something else." Thoughtfully Helen hung back the gowns. She ought to give Laura the
blue one give it to her outright. She could not wear it as it was. and it was hardly worth a new overskirt. Had their places been reversed, she knew that Laura, with her reckless liberality, would have given it to her without a thought. But it was always hard for her to part with her clothes. Her desire to hold on to things was a failing that she had constantly to strive against. She had hung up the blue gown, but now she forced herself to take it down again. . "Laura, I'm going to give you this. It's selfish to talk of lending It when I've so many. No, please don't," checking Laura's effusive thanks. "And you'll need some satin slippers,"; swept on by her own generosity. "I wonder if I haven't a pair you can wear. "It doesn't matter how soiled they are." . "Try these."Laura took off her shoe and struggled with the slender white slipper. If Warren could see her now, was Helen's thoroughly feminine wish. - "No," ruefully, "I can't begin to get it on. I knew I couldn't," generously. "But I can buy slippers, the dress is the main thing." "How'll you carry it? In a box? Or shall I just wrap it up?" "Anyway," hesitatingly. "I'm wild about that knife-pleated skirt. Look, how full it is! Oh, that CAN'T be halfpast ten! " "That's all right. Warren'll take you to the car." "No, he won't. I'm not a bit afraid. Oh, that paper's good enough! Don't worry about the bundle, I don't care what it looks like." When she was ready to go, in spite of her protests, Warren insisted on going to the car. At the elevator she kissed Helen gratefully. "I can't tell you how much this means to me just now. Pve got to make good in the next few weeks, and having the right kind of clothes will help. Left alone, Helen went straight to the hall closet and again took out the gowns. Throwing them on the bed in her room, she began to try them on She had a morbid desire to see herself in them now to make more definite the aching comparison that obsessed her. Turning on a stronger light, with pitiless scrutiny she noted her every defect. Her features were as good and her profile more delicate than Laura's, but her coloringg was less vivid and her hair less effective. Helen's hair had always been a trial. for it was over-fine, clinging and un compromisingly straight. , Shaking it down, she did it up more loosely and fluffed it out with a comb. Then, rubbing her cheeks with her knuckles un til they glowed, she stood back from the mirror to get the full length effect. In her absorption she had not heard W7arren come in. And now she started violently as he appeared at the door of her room. "Mighty fine that Laura's landed that job. If she can hold that down for a few months she'll be all right." "Yes, I'm so glad. She always loathed stenography," gathering up the dresses from the bed in an effort to hide the one she had on. "She's got an expressive face, good film face, I should say. Never saw her dolled-up before. Makes a big difference. Now hurry up, get those things put away it's after eleven. He had turned away without having noticed Helen's gown. But her relief was only momentary, for he promptly camevback. "Say, we'll have to find out when they run some of those films " Then as his glance took In the gown, "What in thunder! -.What're you ' rigging up for this time of night?" "Oh, nothing," confusedly. "I just thought I'd try this on," unhooking it with nervous fumbling fingers. But WTarren's keen gaze had pene trated her flushed confusion. . "Hello, that's it, eh? Thought Lau ra looked better In those duds than you did?. '.Well you ARE a little nin ny: . " . Ls know Laura's younger, and I know they did look better on " her dice broke. i ; .. . i

If, that's all you've got to worry about you're blame lucky." "Oh, I DREAD to get old!" passion ately. "I can't bear to feel I'm not as Three long strides brought Warren across the room. "Look in there!" pushing her unwillingly in front of the mirror. Against the dark background of his shoulder," with her fushed checks and rumbled hair, Helen looked young amazingly young twenty at most. "Not quite ready for the old ladies' home, eh? Well, as long as your hair and teeth stay in don't you worry. Now let's get to bed."

Copyright, 1916, by the McClure As soon as Hassan had eaten his breakfast he drove over to the home of Kama. And the younger brother was forgiving enough to welcome him, show him all his great gifts and even tell him about the magic drum. " Then he took down the drum and explained its manner of working. Kama was wise enough not to tell about the storehouse full of gold, for he feared it might tempt his brother to do him harm, but he never thought Hassan would try to steal the drum. But that is just what he did. That night, when the moon set, Hassan stole out into the night and, opening the window, got into the house. In a few moments he had the drum under his arm and was running madly home. But safe at home he hid it under his bed, while he thought out what he could best wish for. Then he beat upon the drum loudly. There was a noise, a cloud of smoke and a voice said: "What does my master wish?" "I want you to" turn the home of ray brother to ashes, to burn his cattle and crops and turn his family out in rags," exclaimed the wicked brother. "Then you are to pile in my court yard as many bags of gold as will make an acre of money." Hassan rose and went to the window. He saw the beautiful home of his brother crumble into ashes, the cattle destroyed in the fields, the crops in flames and, at last, Kama and hia visible hands till they filled the whole space and shut out the light. Poor Kama did not at first know what had happened to bring on his misfortune, but when he reached the top of a hill and saw the bags being piled into his brother's yard, he knew at' once that the whole work was that of his wicked brother and that Hasson must have stolen the magic drum. So he decided to see .f he could not get the drum back. Making the children comfortable in a warm cave, he set out at dark to the home of his coat. 7-. 2-t family fleeing in rags. His cruel nature was filled with pleasure. Then, looking into his large court yard, he saw bag after bag of gold piled by inbrother. When he got there the moon was behind the clouds, so he crept up to the window and-peeped in there in his hall sat Hassan drinking wine from a golden goblet and singing loudly. On a table at his back, but near the window, rested the magic drum. ! Kama sprang inside. Seizing the ' drum he sounded a loud rattle on its hide. There was a thunder that shook the walls of the palace, a heavy cloud of smoke filled the room and a loud voice, as I? angry, cried: "What is your will, master? This is the last time you will have the power to call up by the drum." Kama was so angry at his brother for all his wickedness and for plotting more, that he cried out at once, "Beat that man severely." The drum sticks flew out of Kama's hands and pitched into Hassan, who struggled up out of his drunken sleep, j Faster and faster they flew till Hassan was blue and black from head to foot.

How to Shed a Rough, Chapped or Blotchy Skin This is what you should do to sher a bad complexion: Spread evenly over the face, covering every inch of skin, a thin layer of ordinary mercolized wax. Let this stay on over night, washing it off next morning. Rppat daily until your complexion is as clear, soft and beautiful as a young girls. This result is inevitable, no matter how soiled or withered the complexion. The wax literally absorbs the filmy surface skin, exposing the lovely young skin beneath. The process is entirely harmless, so little of the old skin coming off at a time. Mercolized wax is obtainable at any drug store: one ounce usually suffices. It s a veritable wonder-worker for rough chapped, reddened, blotchy, pimpled, freckled or sallow skin. Pure powered saxolite is excellent for a wrinkled skin. An ounce of it dissolved in a half-pint witch hazel makes a refreshing wash-lotion. This renders the skin quite firm and smooth; indeed, the very first application erases the finer lines; the deeper ones soon follow. Adv.
