The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

. Chapter 76 LANGLEY After all the talk and preparations

about going to the city, it was well along towards Fall before Ruth got ' off. She left Sunday afternoon, and . Saturday evening! Langlcy came to! see her. j Saturday she was sure to be alone, I for Jt was the big night at the club j and all their friends were certain to 1 be out in the little farmhouse thatj had been made up in temporary fash- j ion as a place to dance and play and i flirt in. Ruth had only gone out to; the club occasionally for a game of tennis since her ; father's death. So she sat thit Saturday evening in, a big wicker armchair, in a favorite j position her knlies doubled up so she i half sat upon hejr feet and so she was

completely swallowed up by the big chair. Langley lounged back in the hammock, smoking cigarettes and blowing

out clouds of blue smoke to catch the i lamp light and to be lit up into a sort j

of blue illumination by the soft light. ' Something amusing happened today," Ruth said. "I had a letter from a Miss Joan Bryce, who is a special

writer for a woman's magazine, I've forgotten which one. . She wants me to

tell her about my share in making up South Marketown, and all the things in the way of playgrounds here she seems to think Tve put through." "So you havo put them through. What else did she say?" "She wanted, tihe said, to interview me. Isn't that funny? It's overnight from here to Niew York where she lives. Why should she be interested in a prosaic little person like me?" Langley blew out another smoke cloud, watching it till it was caught in the glow of the lamp. "There's such a thing as too much modesty, my denr," he remarked. "You have done all she claims and a lot more. Recognize it, and acknowledge it. What did you write her?" "Nothing yet. I could call her up at her magazine when I get into New York, but I thought I'd wait, then write and say I hadn't done anything." "Ruth, once in a while you make me mad." Ruth laughed at this, for the man was in earnest, so much so that he sat up on the couch to lecture her. She listened meekly to his lecture, and then promised to let the woman know where to find her in the city. "You're the most amazing girl I ever saw anyway. I don't know what I would ever have done in this place if it had not been for you," he ended. "Gone on to another town in the course of your wprk," she responded practically. "You did that anyway. You went on to Ohio." "And came back," he answered her. "I came back to help you work out the details of the scheme for a factory town that was your sole idea, but I think I would have come anyway." "Why?"' She asked it in frank curiosity and without any trace of coquetry. "To see you, to be near you," he said. There was a silence, bo sudden, so deep, that it seemed almost startling. Langley had never talked like- this before! To be sure, he had picked her up .Jn his arms the night after her father died, but it was only as though, he were a grown man soothing a grieftricken child. There had been little enough sentiment in an otherwise sentimental action. "And now you are sending me away to New York for a month." She laughed , nervously as she said it. She was ready to say anything to break this -udden silence, and these words came first into her head. "I have a special reason for doing that. One thing is that I want you to have a complete change the change from small town to large, from people with one outlook on life to people with

quite another. I want you to . rest a little, and to be a little frivolous as you'll have to be, for you must let yourself be entertained by some of the people you will meet there on business." "That's several reasons, that's not one special " "I'll tell you the special reason when you come back. And I might add that I'll miss you awfully." He held put his hand, stretching his long arm over the little table. Ruth put her hand in his as frankly as though she were a boy. 'Til buy you a lot of new books," she said. "I'll probably get lonesome and write you a lot of letters," he answered. She pulled her hand away; he let it go when he felt she wanted to be free. "ou've done more for me than you know," he said. "I used to think I had no more faith in women. I never knew anything about them before I met the one in Chicago and after my experience with her, I decided I knew the whole lot and had little use for any of them. You've restored my old faith and my old ideals no woman can do more for a man than that. "I used to hate her. I thought all women were like her, as shallow, heartless, mercenary, calculating, as she was. I know that I loved her a lot because I hated her so afterwards. But I don't any more. I never think of her." Ruth looked at him steadily. "You were awfully miserable, weren't you?" Her ready sympathy had touched something in him. She watched his whole face soften a little. He lit another cigarette. Tomorrow The Story.

CATHOLIC PRIEST DIES. LOG ANS PORT, Ind., May 26. The Rev. Father Anthony J. Kroeger, 64 years old, priest of St. Joseph Catholic church here, died Wednesday afternoon following a week's illness of pneumonia. The Rev. Mr. Kroeger came here from Tipton in 1D06. He was one of the best known priests of northern Indiana. A brother, Bernard Kroeger, and a sister, Miss Elizabeth Kroeger, of this city, survive.

PLAIMERMEN ACCEPT CUT. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., May 26. After being on a strike the last four weeks, planermen of the National Stone company signed a two-year contract Wednesday to return to work today at 75 cents an hour instead of 82 cents, the old scale. All other mills in this district are still down and the other operators have not yet reached agreements with the unions.

A COMMON COMPLAINT. As the season advances and the weather becomes warmer and warmer, there is one small trouble which becomes an increasing bother to a great many women. This common complaint is excessive perspiration. A certain amount of perspiration is necessary and healthful as we all know, but an excessive amount shows some physical or nervous trouble. Most people tell me that the excessive perspiration is either in the armpits or the hands, or less frequently the feet. We have talked about the problem of perspiring feet before. That requires an entirely and much more difficult treatment. There . is a very simple formula which will prevent excessive perspiration of the arms and hands: It is quite easy to make and it not expensive, and I often wonder why more people do not know about it. It consists of, Epsom salts 3 ounces Wheat bran 1 half pint Plain water 4 pints These three ingredients are mixed and allowed to stand overnight. Next day, strain and add 4 ounces of the best quality of bay rum. This perfectly simple lotion can be used as often as you wish and should merely be rubbed over the part of the skin that perspires. It will not stop all perspiration if it did it would be

i harmful, but it will neutralise all un

pleasant odor and it will tend to make the skin healthier. If the perspiration is mostly under the arms, you will be able to stop some of it by keeping the armpits clean, either by shaving or using a depilatory

: powder. j M. R. G. Your information is wrong. ; The scalp does not absorb henna, and i if it did it would never produce head- ! aches. If this were true, after using

covered the tendency. M. M. M. Camphor dries up the tissues under the skin. While there

j could be no harmful results from try

ing this on ankles that are very stout, I would not encourage it, as you should be able to keep your ankles looking trig by wearing well cut shoes and stockings and exercising properly. L. B. Send an addressed, stamped

l envelope, for the formula for making j the cleansing cream.

R. H. You should weigh 115 pounds. Bessie. Your enlarged joints show

jthat you have been wearing the wrong

kind of shoes for years. The shoe with a medium round toe and a heel that is broad enough to give a firm feeling

i when standing, is the shoe that holds

all the bones of the foot in their natural positions, so there is no danger of enlarging the joints or causing corns to appear. The height of the heel .varies witti different people, as some arches require a higher heel than others. A. E. J. If you send an addressed stamped envelope, I shall be pleased to mail you a formula that will lessen this tendency to excessive perspiration under the arms and also neutralize the unpleasant odor caused by it. E. F. G. The Pilocarpine Hair Tonic will take up too much space to print, but I shall be pleased to mail it to you. if you send an addressed stamped envelope.

Davis Asks Appropriation For Immigration Expense (By Associated Press WASHINGTON. May 26. Congress was asked Wednesday by Sec. Davis for a deficiency appropriation of approximately half a million dollars to meet the expenses of the department of labor in regulating immigration. The increased number of aliens coming from overseas and the necessity for more strict supervision along the Mexican border make the appropriation necessary, the secretary said. Owing to the scarcity of natural and chemical manures, Germany's corn lands have been manured with mustard since the war.
