Helen and Warren Series; Story of Their Married Life

"You know -what they'd ask for i that on Fifth avenue?" exulted madame. "The lady went Into mourning and never had it on! I counted on getting eighty, but being ; as you're with this lady, you can have it for seventy." "Yes, it's very lovely" Helen turned away with a note of finality "but I don't care to buy anything this afternoon.- - "Oh, it's all right if . you havent the money with you," urged madame. "I ll hold it for a small deposit." Then, confidentially, TU tell you what I'll do I'll make It sixty." "No, thank you," smiled Helen, making her way out-"Fifty-five!" madam called, following them to the door. "I think you're very foolish," was Laura's comment, as she struggled against the wind with the large suit box. "She'd take forty and you know what that must have cost to import." "But how could I explain it to Warren?" " "Say you got It at a sale of French models slightly shopworn. Oh, It's the most exclusive thing I'd love for you to have it. You think about It, and phone me if you want me to go back with you tomorrow." ""But how does she get all those imported gowns?" evaded Helen. "Haven't you seen those ads. "Will call for ladies' slightly worn gowns?' And she sends out cards jto all the society women. They sell them through their maids. Oh, !t' a regular business." Then, as they turned the corner, "I'd better take this surface car this box is so awkard." By a shop window clock it was now almost six, and Helen hurried to the subway. As she crowded into the already overcrowded car, to her Joyous surprise she founds herself beside WarWith the Reel People COLISEUM. The Equitable's next big five-part feature, "Sealed Lips," which is coming to the Coliseum Monday, June 12, is the result of a combination of skill and genius. Maxwell Grey, the writer of the great novel, "The Silence of Dean Maitland." William Courtenay, the star of the film version, Arthur Ashley and Mary Charleson, the principals in the cast, the wonderful facilities of the Equitable's great Flushing studio, the beautiful country estates on Lon Island where some of the . outside scenes were located, all combined under the directorship of John Ince, and handled with consummate skill, have produced a screen drama which carries the story to the mind with a force commanding attention A big Episcopal church in Brooklyn was Used for the dramatic climax, with the regular officers and choir of the church In attendance and lending their rfforts toward insuring absolute accuracy in every detail of the great scene.

George And Fred

Now, boys, here is a chance for you to get out your colors and make this picture a dandy. Sister has colored some of the pictures very nicely, but this game of marbles is just the thing for you to try. Make the fence light brown, the leaves green and the marbles all the bright colors you have. Fred has 'Protected by Georica Newspaper Syndicate, New York, flock out into the woods to gather berries. She was the oldest, and as they strung along the path it looked like a procession. But Gretchen watched over the little ones, picked up those who fell down and soon had them every one happy and busy. At noon they ate some bread with a part of the berries they had gathered. "Now 1 am going to run to the spring," said Gretchen. "But you children must not move from here while I am gone. If you do, you might run into the Old Witch of the Rock. If she once gets you, she will keep every one to work her gardens down far under the earth." So Gretchen ran to the spring, but when she came back she found not a child in sight every one had vanished. "I know that witch came along and made them follow her," cried Gretchen, as she ran breathlessly through the woods. And sure enough, as she turned a corner she caught sight of the last child disappearing in the door of the old witch's cavern. Then the great stone above dropped with a bang, and the children were gone. Gretchen threw herself down on the ground and wept, but at last she arose and crept slowly along the stone which made the door. Finally she found a small hole, and through this she managed to spueeze. As soon as she was Inside she crawled along the passage till she came to a great hall lighted by a big golden lantern. On benches at the other side she could see the children waiting to be sent home. "O," said the witch, "you are just the right age to work in my gardens, and 1 need you every one, you must go there with me." Then she told i them to go to sleep on the bench and that she would call them in time for ; breakfast. The room was quiet after the witch went to bed, except for the weeping of the children, who wanted to go home at once. Gretchen walked out into the big hall to where she saw a big white cat sitting on a cushion that lay on a table. She was surprised to hear this cat speak: "I was bewitched years ago," said the cat, "and have been kept in this cavern. If the witch finds you here, she will turn you into a cat. Hide behind that chest in the corner and when the witch is snoring loudly slip from her finger on the left hand the

Dear, It was really the loveliest thing, and she'd have sold it absurdly cheap. Laura was wild for me to take it, but I I thought you wouldn't like it." "Well, that time you thought right! Guess we can afford to buy your clothes regular not so hard up yet that you have to wear cast-offs. You'd feel pretty cheap, wouldn't you, if you'd happen to stack up against the woman who sold it?" "Oh, dear," with a shocked laugh, "I never thought of that!" "Well, you can clutter up the house with antiques second-hand junk, that's what it amounts to but we'll draw the line at hand-me-down clothes!" (Another Story Tomorrow.)

After you have finished this picture, draw some little boys you know playing marbles. Matthew Adams ruby ring she wears. That will break the spell and 1 will become a prince again." Gretchen said nothing to the children who did not see her in the darkness, but hid behind the chest. Presently the witch came tramping in, hobbling along with her lantern throwing shadows about the big cave. At last she fell asleep and was soon snoring so loud that it kept the children awake. By the flickering light of the fire, Gretchen stole out and went over to the witch. Gently she took the great ruby off the withered hand. But no sooner had it left the finger than she sprang up with a loud cry: "I will die! I will die!" she groaned. "For my ruby is gone. I am blind, I cannot stand." And with a sigh the fell to the floor. There was a puff of wind, a cloud of smoke blew away and there was nothing left on the ground but two hairpins and a button. Gretchen turned to go to the children, but as she did so she saw before her a handsome prince bowing low with his plumed hat sweeping the ground. At the same time the children came running up shouting with delight. "We will get the bags of gold and jewels in the chest," said the Prince. I lived with my father, the King of Norland, but this cruel witch cast a spell on me five years ago and I have been here ever since .You have saved me and must be my bride." Every child took a bag of gold or gems and the party set out for the humble cottage of the little tailor. Very happy-was the father to see the riches piled high on his table and very happy was the mother to know that the good Gretchen was to marry the Prince who stood by her side. No one ever went to the cavern again, but the tailor bought a big estate in Norland and moved his family there, where they lived not far from Gretchen, who was now the wife of the young Prince.

isters : Wang had evidently received no word that he was not to admit his master's stenographer, and as Delaine called out "Come in!" in reply to her knock on the door of the study Caryl entered with assumed shyness. "I know you said you would not expect me, Mr. Delaine," she hastened to assure him, "but as I had a whole day on my hands I thought I would stop in just to make certain that you had not something you wanted me to do." "Oh, that's kind of you," replied Delaine. Then, as his eyes fell on the roses, he did not flush as she had expected, but smiled with perfect composure. "Those are pretty roses," he remarked casually. "Been treating yourself, eh?" "No," she said gravely. "A friend sent them to me." "Oh. I see," he remarked, with such indifference that she felt her cheeks burn. "Yes, it was kind of you to come, but it so happens that I'm just! starting off for a day up in Connect!-1 cut. He glanced at his watch. "By Jove!" he exclaimed. "I've hardly j time to make my train now. Excuse me, please, if I hurry right off!" He caught up his hat, threw a light coat over his arm and rushed from the room, and a second later she, heard the front door slam behind him. She stood still for a moment, listening, then, with a swift, cat-like tread, glided across the floor to Delaine's desk. She had seen an address book lying there. It probably contained Harry Somerdyke's name. Picking it up, she ran her eye down the page under S. His name was there, but under it were only a street and number in a foreign city. With an impatient movement, she tossed the little leather book back upon the desk. As she did so, a letter Delaine had written, addressed and sealed, and evidently forgotten to mail, dropped to the floor. Instinctively she stooped to pick it up, and as she did so, she saw that it was directed to Harry Soraerdyke at a small hotel of which she had never heard. Repeating the address over and over to herself, she left the apartment so noislessly that Wang, entering the study five minutes later, was surprised to find it empty. She did not remember the exact number of the house, but she remembered on what street it was. Just for fun, she thought she would walk in that direction, so she turned down toward the Forties. When she reached the street she was seeking she went into a drug store and consulted a directory to ascertain where the hotel itself was. (More Tomorrow.)

"T? emember that the Yellowstone is yours" such is the conclusion of the splendid booklet which the Department of the Interior has just printed about our Greatest National Park. "Distinctive Characteristics" of the Park are listed in this Government book as follows: "More geysers than in all the rest of the world together boilingr springs mud volcanoes petrified forests Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, remarkable for gorgeous coloring large lakes many large streams and waterfalls vast wilderness inhabited by deer, elk, bison, moose, antelope, bear, mountain sheep, beaver, etc., constituting greatest wild bird and animal preserve in the world altitude 6,000 to 11,000 feet exceptional trout fishing." Two-thirds of all who visited the Yellowstone during 1915 went via Union Pacific System because by this route Colorado and Salt Lake City may be seen on the way without additional fare, also the trip to Yellowstone is made conveniently oa the way to California or the Pacific North Coast.

"And colossal, unearned wealth to gain don't forget that. Mr. Hamilton. Men of different caliber. I grant you. but all three in the same whirlpool of crime, bound by thieves' law to sink or swim together. It is because they are astute and far-seeing that they must inevitably have considered the possibility of exposure and safeguarded themselves against it with bogus corroborative proof. If that proof is in tangible form, and we can lay cur ands on it, we shall then have them where we want them. Now go back to your office. Mr. Hamilton, and dictate this letter to your stenographer, having it left open on your besk for your signature. Don't wait for the letter to be typed, but proceed at once to the office of Anderson & Wallace. You. as a lawyer, will of course know the form of inquiry to use." The detective handed Ramon Hamilton a typewritten sheet of paper from his desk; and the young man, after hastily perusing it. gazed with a blank stare of amazement into Blaine's eyes. "I can't make this out." he objected. "Who on earth is Alexander Gibbs, and what has he to do with Miss Lawton's case? This letter seems to inform one Alexander Gibbs that I have retained you to recover for us the last will and testament of his aunt, Mrs. Dorothea Gibbs. I have no such client, and I know no on in what's the -address? Ellenville, Sullivan County." Blaine smiled. "Of course you don't, Mr. Hamilton. Nevertheless, you will sign that letter and your secretary will mail it that is, after it has lain upon your desk for casual inspection. One of my operatives will receive it in Ellenville." (More Tomorrow.) MAIDS RECEIVE WAGES OF $10 "House maids, who are really competent, are few and far between," remarked an attache of the social service bureau today. Housewives are constantly requesting the service bureau to secure maids for them, but it is difficult for the bureau to meet the demand. The mistresses of a number of Richmond homes are now paying their maids fifty per cent, higher wages than they did two years ago. Couples with children are the ones who find it most difficult to keep maids. "Competition of factories for girls services has kept many from housework," said the bureau attache. "Factories are now paying girls better wages than formerly, and many girls would rather work longer, though more definite hours, in ' a factory where they have company than in a lonely kitchen. Women who want maids will have to meet the competition of the business world. Good wages and short hours must be provided." Some Richmond maids are now receiving as high as $10 a week. A competent girl cannot be secured for less than $5 a week, and practically all of them will not do either the family washing or Ironing. New York policemen are being schooled to recognize the7 different makes of automobiles at night to aid in the recovery of stolen cars and in the detection of crimes committed by persons who use the automobile to escape.
