THE BEGINNING. When there was anything practical to be done by the "Marvin sisters it was Julia who took the Initiative. It was lihe ihorofnro u-hn a ft or mikInK

, inquiries of a friend who had worked at one time in New York, decided to ,' send a special delivery to a certain home in the great- city, asking for accommodations for Caryl and herself until they could, secure work and a permanent abiding place. The address of this temporary abode was in Julia's little handbag, and she referred to it as she and Caryl emerged from Grand Central Station on the afternoon on which the pair reached New York. This same address had been given to the "baggageexpress man" who had passed through the train, and he had promised to try ( to get their trunk to their room that came evening. "I know," said Julia, hesitatingly, "that there is a line of cars here which ! will take us downtown. Oh, I wish I knew more about New York!" "Well, as you don't," proposed i Caryl, "Wouldn't it be well to be on (the safe side and hire a cab? Let's see, this is Forty-second street, isn't i it?" She looked about her curiously, but . not timidly. To her the whole journey and all that lay beyond it seemed an , exciting adventure.. "Why not?" she mused, "for In New , York people make money very fast." Julia's voice broke in upon her ; fancies. "Clara. Dayton told me to ' take the Madison avenue car down :to Twenty-third street, then to walk down to the home," she said. "Come on, dear, we can't stand here staring any longer. We must make the plunge." Guided by a kindly policeman, the girls crossed the street, but when they had reached the opposite sidewalk and a taxlcab driver held up his finger inquiringly, Caryl grasped her sister's arm suddenly. "See there, Julia!" she exclaimed. "There's one of those cabs that we've ; heard so much about! I want to take it. Do let's get in it!" But Julia shook her head and started on. "Not that one, Caryl," she replied hastily. "Come ahead with me and I'll explain." And, as the other obeyed reluctantly, Julia told her that she had been warned that it was not safe for a young woman to get into any cab that she might chance to meet. 1 "Some of those drivers are em-

Dayton told me so, and said that If I ever was 111, or anything like that, and needed a cab, to go to a regular stand for one." - Caryl laughed contemptuously. "Ridiculous!" ? she declared. "As if two grown-ups could be fooled as a pair of silly hildren might be! At any rate, I'm going . to have my own way about the. matter, so you may as well look up a cab-stand now, for I mean to ride downtown In something besides a common old street "car." They had not far to look, for a row of taxis standing at the side, of a hotel had caught Caryl's eye and she piloted her sister toward one of these.

"What will it cost to take us to this place?" asked Julia, showing the man the card bearing the address which was her destination. . "That depends on how many miles it is," he replied. "The Indicator there will show you how far you've gone when we stop." . , "But can't you give us any idea of the price?" began Julia, but Caryl jumped into the cab and seated herself. "Oh, come on! "a she called gaily. "Don't bother about the 'expense. We have enough money to blow in on a ride now and then I guess!" To Be Continued.

Bennie Dog found a great deal of fault because his mother asked him to do so many things. "I don't believe Tommie Cat or Peter Dog up at the farm have so much to do, or any of the animals that live in the woods. They all have an easier time than I do, I am sure," said Bennie Dog. "Why don't you go on a visit to those places and see for yourself?" asked his mother. . So Bennie Dog packed his bag and

started off visiting. First he stopped at Tommie Cat's house, but" he only stayed one night, for Tommie Cat's mother made him work all night catching mice and ats, and Bennie Dog had to help, and he didn't like that, so the next morning after breakfast Bennie started off. Next he stopped at Mr. Man's farm on the hill, where Peter Dog lived, and there he felt sure he would stay, for Peter had a big dish of bones for his dinner and brea'd and gravy for his supper, but he had to sleep with one eye open all night so that no one would rob the hen house or break into Mr. Man's house, and Bennie Dog had to sleep on the steps of the house and watch too. "No one can live here without working," said Mr. Man. "I am sure there must be some place better than this,' said Bennie Dog to himself next morning, as he trotted down the road, "I'll visit Mr. Fox, who lives in the woods next." Mr. Fox locked the door fast when he saw Bennie Dog coming, .and it took a long time to convince him that Bennie Dog only came on a visit and was not out hunting. , "Come right in," said Mr. Fox. 'and make yourself at home; take off your good coat and put on an old one of mine. I am working in the garden this morning and 'you can help me." Bennie Dog did not care much about working, he was so tired from being awake all night, but he put on the coat arid then Mr. Fox "said he had just thought of an errand he must do. and if Bennie Dog would work fast he was sure he would have all the garden weeded before he returned,

for he knew Bennie Dog was a good

worker bo Bennie Dog worked as fast as he could, and Mr. Fox stayed away all day, and by night time Bennie Dog was so tired he fell asleep in the garden and the dew fell on him. and when he woke up the next morning he had a dreadful cold. "I won't stay here even for break-

Newspaper Syndicate, New York, fast," said Bennie Dog, jumping up. "I have worked harder at Mr. Fox's house than anywhere." So off he trotted. Bennie Dog looked around to see where he was, and not far away he saw the smoke curling up from a chimney. Then he went a little farther and saw that it was his own home, not far away, from where the smoke came. Bennie Dog did not stop to think. He ran as fast as he could and got there just as his mother was putting the breakfast on the table. Bennie Dog did not say a word about his visit to any of the different places, but when he finished eating h'e went upstairs and put on his old clothes and asked his mother what she wanted him to do. He weeded the garden and brought in the wood and a pail of water, and never once did he complain of working too hard. He found that discontentment gets us into more trouble sometimes than we already have, and Bennie Dog learned that he had an easier time than most of his friends, and he never found fault again.

agreed Brooke; and a hard note came Into his voice. "Pshaw! ' There are tens of thousands of people like that: Nobody . misses 'em nobody; and even If they do, they don't regret 'em. Lord, it's a funny world, Crawley! However, the thing's done with, and the sooner we forget it the better." - The two men relapsed into silence for a few minutes. The great car was getting close to Crawley's studio. "I hope it'll be all right," said Brooke. - Crawley did not reply. , He was afraid to trust himself." -; Five minutes afterward they dreV UP in' front of ,40A Grosvenor road. "Well, here we are, old man!" exclaimed Brooke. "Out you get! I'm anxious to get back to my wife, as you can well imagine.' For a moment or two Noel Crawley wavered. He fought with himself. One part of him wanted to get away from Brooke without a moment's delay, the other wanted to stay to go through with the whole thing. He made one faint and futile effort. "I'll go with you to the Savoy," he said with a frantic effort at selfcontrol. ."Nonsense!" replied Brooke. "You just go into -your place and see that everything is all right. Ring me up about an hour later. Buck up! Go round and see your Eva. That's the best tonic I can suggest. I shall be a new man when I've seen my Di God bless her! "I'll bet you anything you like, Crawley, she's been worrying her dear little self all to pieces because I've been away. Ah. well, I shall soon put that all right! Well, so long, sonny!" He put out his hand as Crawley mechanically alighted from the motor car. Crawley took the outstretched hand and tried again to speak; but the effort was in vain. . To Be Continued.

Story of

At that moment, by a curious freak of the imagination, Crawley could only think of Miss Eliza Mary Jane Martin and her crude red hair, her innocently wicked lovely face, her bad teeth, and her terrible Cockney accent. But he answered naturally enough: Crawley Tells a Deliberate Lie. "No; I know absolutely nothing about her." "Not even her name?" He shook his head. "She was Zoe to me nothing more." "But surely you must have known her name?" "I believe," answered Crawley, "though I really couldn't swear to it, that her name was Mrs. Craddock." "Mrs. Craddock. Humph! I don't suppose there is a Mr. Craddock; but at the same time there is bound to be some one in the world who will miss her. A woman can't suddenly disappear like this without someone turning up, even if it's only a landlady with an unpaid bill." "Yes, yes; I quite appreciate that," murmured Crawley, "though though I should not think Zoe had left any unpaid bills. You see oh, but why should we talk of it?" "Only because, my dear chap, we must be prepared for emergencies, expected or otherwise." "Let us take your advice," said Crawley boldly, "and wait until we come to the bridge before we cross it." "Yes, yes, sonny, you - are right!"

Danger ahead ! Go now to a mirror and examine your mouth? Do your gums look "rinsed out," shrunken? Do you see a jagged appearance in the gum-line? If so, see your dentist He will tell you that you have pyorrhea, and that to save your teeth you will have to fight this dread disease at once.

Warren was taking them into the dining room. As there was no need of her presence, Helen stayed in the bedroom where she could hear without being seen. "Better shut up this room till we can send a man to photograph those finger prints," when they had examined the rug and window-sill. "That's all right," Warren assured them. "Nothing'll be touched?" "Carry burglar insurance?" asked the officer. "Yes, the stuff's covered." Then grimly, "if I'd been armed, I'd have landed him. Had a revolver, but the blamed thing wasn't loaded. Not a cartridge in the house." Not loaded! The joyous color leaped to Helen's face. Not loaded!

"I'd have bluffed it, of course. If j

he'd come into the bedroom, but I

wasn't looking for trouble not with an empty .revolver." "You've got that right! If you can't get the drop on 'em don't take a chance on these porch climbers, advised the detective. "They'd soon croak a man as not." Helen turned from the door, still athrill with that first glow of relief. Then her glance fell o.i the revolver which lay on the chiffonier. Why, it looked loaded! She could see the light through two empty chambers but the other four held cartridges ! She sank on the edge of the bed. The whole foundation of her married life seemed crumbling away. That Warren should LIE in addition to being a coward! She could be untruthful and deceptive in small things she was a woman! But for him, who loathed deceit, whom she had always thought unflinchingly truthful! That he should stoop to such a falsehood to shreld his cowardice! She threw herself across the bed, her face in the covers." The voices still came from the dining-room. Then, at last, the detectives' heavy tread out through the hall. The bedroom doer opened, and Warren strode in with a brusque, "Well, might as well get what sleep we can. It's after five. Here, get in bed right!" Helen, who had been lying across

the foot of the bed, got up slowly.

Witnout glancing at Warren, me

chanically she straightened and turn ed back the rumpled covers.

"Hadn't hadn't you better put away that revolver?" Her voice was leadened. "It might be knocked off."

"Blamed thing's not loaded," throwing off his bathrobe. "But I'll get

some cartridges the first thing tomor

row you can count on that." "Warren, it IS loaded! I I just looked at it."

"Eh?" sharply. He reached' for the revolver, stared at it, then broke the barrel and shook out into his hand-the

four empty cartridges.

Helen grasped. She had not thought

of the brass shells being enipty.

She had been accusingly, blindly unjust! She should have known that Warren was incapable of even a

thought that was cowardly or un

truthful.

The next moment she was in bed beside him, with a burst of repentant,

self-reproaching, relieving tears.

But Warren, with masculine ob-

tuseness, wholly misconstrued their cause. "When it's all over you've got to ring in the hysterics, eh? Well, cut 'em short! We've only about an hour to sleep." Another Story Tomorrow.

Facts

GET the facts on the operating cost before you buy any automobile. Find out the truth before not after. And don't be satisfied with hearsay or a salesman's claims. The price of gasoline is high; so is oil and there is sure to be an increase in the cost of all tires. So, what you want is the car that will give you most miles per gallon of gasoline, per gallon of oil and per set of tires. Here are the facts proved by the Maswell stock touring car that recently set the World's Motor Non-Stop Record:

Maxwell World's Non-Stop Record Facts Miles without a motor stop .22,023 Average miles per day (44 days) 500.6 Miles per gallon of gasoline. 21.88 Miles per gallon of oil 400 Average miles per tire 9,871

Remember that this was a Non-Stop Endurance Record in order to prove that the Maxwell car was exceedingly sturdy, reliable and trouble proof. No attempt was made or could be made to save gasoline, oil or tires. So these figures merely indicate what would be possible under ordinary driving conditions. Right now we have a Maxwell we can deliver to you, and if you don't want to pay cash, make a deposit and pay the balance as you use the car. But don't put it off. We know the Maxwell factory can't get half enough freight cars to carry their doubled' output. Later on we may not be able to supply you. But we can NOW. Better phone us for a demonstration today.
