Helen and Warren; Their Mar ried Life By MRS. MABEL HERBERT URNER Originator of "Their Married Life.", "Author of "The Journal of a Neglected Wife," "The Woman Alone," Etc.

'Combination tea room and antique shop eh? Well, that don't sound like real food," objected Warren. , "Oh, they serve an awfully good dinner." enthused Mrs. Stevens; "thfc most delicious waffles and Maryland chicken and everything so dainty." "May be dainty all right, but do you Cet enough to eat?" "Dear, do let's go," pleaded Helen, i d love to1 see the old furniture." "Shall we try it?" Mr. , Stevens "slowed down the car. "Oh. all right," Warren assented. '"We can go somewhere afterward and Lll up.' A .half-hour's ride through the snow swirled streets and they drew up before . an old-fashioned red brick house, with a white colonial doorway. A quaint iron lantern lit the swinging sign "Ye Olde Cock Inn." The door was opened by an auburnhaired, artistic-type woman in an enveloping "studio" apron, whom T.Irs. Stevens introduced as Miss Trallor. x "One of the maids left this morn log," she explained, ushering them inf the wide hall, "so I'm helping with the dinner." "That's the younger sister," whispered Mrs. Stevens as they took off their wraps. "She's very clever she was an interior decorator before they opened this place. Come through this way. I want you to see some of the furniture. After dinner we'll go through the rooms upstairs." Both the hall and large front room were furnished in antiques each piece ticketed in plain figures. "Oh. yes, they're high," admitted Mrs. Stevens, as Helen exclaimed at An $85 tag on a small pie-crust table. "But they get their prices. Miss Trailor says they can't get the stuff ns fast as they can sell it." In the dining room, a wide brick fireplace with its glowing log contributed to the "old-time" atmosphere. The candle-lighted tables, the ragcarpet rugs, the gray walls and white woodwork, the flower-painted chairs rnd the long mahogany sideboard vere all strictly "Colonial." "Isn't this the most attractive Toom?" praised Mrs. Stevens, as Misa Trailor led them to a table by the fireplace. "Oh, that's another china closet? That's not the one you had v. hen I was here last?" "No, we sold that. We Just got this from an old house in Salem. Isn't it a beauty? Will you be too varm here? Perhaps you'd rather sit lack?" "Oh, no, it's Jolly by the fire," approved Mr. Stevens. The tables were bare except for two linen strips laid crosswise, which brought the linen under each plate. The cock, the sign of the inn, was everywhere on the linen strips, the lifln6P lift nlflna and the borders of the v. hite muslin curtains. Even the salt cellars were china cocks. "Can we get anything to drink that's what I'd like to know," demanded Warren, whose interest wa3 in the food and not the furnishings. "Why. dear, of course not," rebuked Helen. "Not at a tea room " "I'm not so sure about that," objected Mr. Stevens. "They may have it on the quiet." Then as the white frilled colored girl served their relish. "Could we get such a thing as a cocktail here?" ', "I dunno. suh," with a grin. "I'll rsk Miss Trailor." "That means we'll get it," chuckled Warren. 'Huh. what do you call this mouthful?" staring at the mayonr.ised morsel on a lettuce leaf. "Oh, it's delicious!" Helen nibbled at it with an oyster fork. "There'ro rhrimps in it and sardines, and " "Not enough of that dob to tell what's in it." "You won't mind drinking your ocktail from a teacup, will you?" smiled Miss Trailor, appearing with four cups on a tray. "We haven't any license and we have to be so very careful." "Booze in a teacup," grinned War ren. What do you Know aooui mar, Stevens? That's why these women rro so keen on tea rooms.' The soup wsh a thin consomme, tserved in artistic shallow blue bowls scantily half full. This was followed I y ' tiny oyster timbales. The hot reda biscuits were delicious, but hardly larger than a quarter, and the How To Get Rid of Catarrh, Catarrhal Deafness or Head Noises . If you hnvo catarrh, catarrhal deafness or head noises caused by catarrh. cr if phlegm drops in your throat and has caused catarrh of the stomach or tends you will be glad to know that there distressing symptoms can be entirely overcome in many Instances by the following treatment which you can easily prepare in your own home at little cost.

dainty butter balls were infinitesimal. The Maryland fried chicked was yassed by Miss Trailor herself.' As each piece was suggestively mounted on a corn fritter, none of . them had the courage to take more .than one. "What'd you say this dinner was?" demanded Warren, scraping off tho white sauce and exposing the diminutiveness of a second Joint. "Dollar and a quarter," laughed Mr. Stevens. "Not over-hearty, is it?" "About enough for a convalescent canary. When we get through -here we'll go down to Jack's Chop House and have a good thick sirloin." "Wouldn't be a bad scheme in a place like this to order two dinners apiece. Like the man who ordered ten dollars worth of " "Oh, we've heard that ham and egg r.tory," snapped Mrs. Stevens, annoyed at their criticism of the place. "Well, they've got their nerve to ask a dollar and a quarter for this. But they can put anything over on women if they throw in enough of this 'quaint atmosphere' bunk." Helen could see that Mrs. Stevens was really provoked at Warren's comments. Having discovered the place, she was prejudiced in its favor. However, in spite of the meager portions, before they had finished every table was taken mostly by women alone. Well, that dinnerTl do for a horsd'deuvre," observed Warren, when they rose. " Now we'll go down to Jack's and have a real " "Sh-sh, dear, don't! You're offending Mrs. Stevens!" Passing out tnev paused by the sideboard to examine the display of brass candlesticks, old china and Sheffield all for sale. "Now we're going up to look at the furniture," announced Mrs. Stevens. "You and Henry are so critical you'd better wait down here." The stairway, with the old-fashioned white-painted bannisters, led up to

Simple Laxative Remedy Best tor Constipation

DR. CALDWELL'S SYRUP PEPSIN GAVE SATISFACTION WHEN NOTHING ELSE WOULD Nearly every one, at one time or another, suffers from constipation, or inactive bowels, and one of the few conclusions upon which the doctors agree is that regularity of the bowels Is an essential to good health. In the family medicine chest of most well-ordered households will be found ono or more of the various remedies recommended for the relief of constipation. In the majority of homes today the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is recognized as the standard laxative. Druggists everywhere report a constantly increasing demand for this splendid remedy which is sold for fifty cents a bottle. Mr. James Ash, 102 Green St., Cumberland, Md.f wrote to Dr. Caldwell that he found Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin the most effective remedy for constipation he had ever used and that he always keeps a bottle of it on hand for use when necessary. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a mild laxative, and does not gripe or strain, but acts gently and brings relief in an easy, natural manner. Its

"Isn't this a good way to show them?" "Oh, 'here's a sampler!" as they went into the next ooin. "But it's rot , a ' fine : one-bnly the alphabet." Helen scrutinized the framed bit of needlework that hung over a slope-top desk. "It's not priced either." "This Is what I want for bur hall, admiring an old convex mirror. ? They had made the tour .of -the rooms, and were going down, when they met Miss Trailor on the! stairs. "I was Just coming up to show you around. . Did you see everything? "Oh, yes, It's all so attractively displayed, extolled Mrs. Stevens. "Have you any other samplers?" Helen asked, turning back. "I saw that framed one but it's rather coarse. Have you anything better?" "Samplers! " sharply. , "Where did you see a sampler?" "Why, in one of the rooms hanging over a desk." "In which room?" insisted Miss Trailor, fairly biting her words. "At the end of the hall, I think," puzzled at her manner. , "The only sampler up there is in my private office: Nothing in that room is for sale!" icily. "That sampler was made by my grandmother." "Oh, I I presumed everything was for sale," stammered Helen. "You call that a coarse sampler, dc you? Well, every one who knows anything about samplers says it's an exceptionally fine one. I'd advise you to reserve your criticisms for something you're more familiar with." "I'm certainly very sorry I spoke of it!" .Her face aflame, Helen brushed by to the hall rack, where Mrs. Stevens was disentangling their wraps. A hastily adjusted veil hid her burning color., It was not until they were in the car that she gave way to her leaping Indignation. "Oh, she was too Insolent for vords! Did you hear what she said?" "No, but I saw something was wrong." Mrs. Stevens leaned forward anxiously. Her voice trembling with resentment, Helen rehearsed the scene. "I hope you haven't offended her," coldly. "I go there so often for tea, freedom from opiates or narcotic drugs makes it the ideal family laxative. To avoid imitations and ineffective substitutes be sure you get Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.

"Oh, of course, if you feel that way " "Why, she was insulting!" persisted Helen excitedly. "She even " "What are you two rowing about?" broke in Mr. Stevens. "Hold up there," Warren was peering down the snow-clouded street. "Aren't we going somewhere to finish up?" . . "I think we'd better go home," announced Mrs. Stevens, distantly. . An, awkward silence followed this chilling . remark. "Then well get out here and take the subway," suggested Warren. "No use dragging you people so far out of your way."

Daisy-n in sisrht-Remark-able discovery of skin osmosis quickly enables women with sunken cheeks, wrinkles and marks of age again to become most beautiful, youthful and charming By Mile. Marelx, France's It's wonderful to look beautiful and youthful. The Countess de Chevanne, who at seventy years of age posesses a marvelously soft, smooth, velvet-like skin and almost girl-like complexion, without a wrinkle in sight told the writer personally in Paris that she owed it all to the discovery of skin osmosis. With this marvelous discovery every complexion blemish can be banished in three nights- in many instances, and you can awaken in the morning with a. beautiful natural rose colored complexion as fresh as a daisy. I have known dozens of hollowcheeked, wrinkled, aged-looking women, who had given up all hope of ever looing beautiful and youthful again, to "Come back" and again become most beautiful, youthful and fascinating 1n from two to three weeks' time by this wonderful simple method. No matter what your age or what you have tried unsuccessfully, skin osmosis will positively bring you new beauty and youth. Merely wash your race in warm water at night and rub in a teaspoonful or two of any good pure roseated cream, which you can obtain from your druggist. In the morning wash the face with cold water and rub in more cream. In three weeks or less watch the magic transformation. See how tho cid, hardened, coarse, rough skin turns into new, fresh, soft, youthful looking skin almost before your very eyes, all due to simple skin osmosis

Mr. Stevens' anxious cordiality could rot conceal his wife's aloofness, and when the car drew up at the next subway kiosk the constraint of the parting was over them all. "That was a cheerful party," scowled Warren as they dived into the subway. "Why the deuce did you have to blow about that ; blooming sampler?" - - "Well, if Mrs. Stevens wishes to take that 'attitude, -she can,"- quivered Helen, goaded by the injustice of :t all. "That woman was deliberately insulting. How was I to know it was her grandmother's sampler?" "Huh, guess it was the only gen-

? FOR CONSTIPATION When you want a pleasant laxative try Chamberlain's Tablets. They are mild and gentle and produce no griping or other unpleasant effect. Obtainable everywhere. Adv. v Great Prize Beauty produced solely by warm water and roseated cream. But be sure to use only pure roseated cream, as it is an entirely different thing from or dinary face creams and must not be confounded with theim I personally prefer Creme Tokalon (Roseated), but any good brand will do. If you have wrinkles get a box of Japanese Ice Pencils and use them in connection with the cream and you get quick action on the deepest wrinkles, no matter of how long standing, in one night's time and awaken on the morrow to witness most astonishing results. I personally guarantee success in every case, in any of my newspaper articles which I write on subjects relating to beauty, or I will refund the amount paid for any products whici I recommend, provided you take your dealer's receipt at the time you make your purchase. My American address is Simone Mariex, 20 West 22nd street, New York. NOTE: The manufacturers of Creme Tokalon Roseated have such unbounded confidence in their particular brand, that they offer to forfeit $200.00 to any charitable institution, if it can be shown that it will not banish every complexion blemish and give most astonishing' new beauty to wrinkled, care-worn, aged women t.i three days' time in many instances. It can be obtained absolutely fresh and guaranteed pure from Quigley Bros., Clem Thistlethwaite, or most any good druggist in this city. Adv. Dennis Shop Clothes Gentlemen Wear"
