"The Love By MARION

THE SURPRISE Chapter 23 "Win could not have chosen a more dramatic moment to make his announcement We three women turned and looked at him in the utmost astonishment. " "I'm going to bring her to the city," he said. Of course It was not so much a surprise to Aunt Harriet, but it was an entirely new idea to me, for on our way home in the car that afternoon, we had been making plana for doing over an old farm house on the edge of the town. But the one who was most astonished by his statement was Win's mother. Up to this time she had been perfectly quiet, sitting over in her corner of the room and listening to the verbal war between her son and my aunt. Now she got up and came across the room to him. "But what do you mean?" she asked "How are you going to the city?" WInthrop by this time was complete ly master of the whole situation. He had gone cheerfully into an argument wnn my angry aunt and he had won out. I did not know then that the only argument he ever had with his mother was this one, as to whether or not he phould be allowed to leave home. Having won one victory, Winthrop felt inspired to go out and win an other. "Everything that Mrs. Bennett says is quite true," he announced. "Con-! stance would never be -happy In this Place." But I am crazy about It," I inter rupted. "You will get over that," he told me. "It's new to you now and you think it's wonderful. In a few months you will be as tired of it as I am this minute. Mother would never allow me to leave because she never felt I was grown up. She can't use that argument now because I'm married and Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young lady of 21. I am not married. A youns man exceedingly rich and handsome, proposed to me. His one great fault is that he never comes to my house except on special occasions, and I must continually go to his home. He gets very much, "peeved" if I don't go to his. I don;t think that this is because I live in poor quarters or an undesirable dwelling, because I live in a very good residential district. I think very much of him. He is polite and well educated. I know he thinks very much of me. Please advise me. KEWPIE. i wuuian i iei a aaugnter or mine call at a man's house repeatedly. If ne ma not care enough about her to call at her home, I hope she would drop him. Riches do not bring happiness. Thev certainly seem attractive before mar riage, but if they belong to a selfish man, they are nothing. Unless your mend considers his desires before ne does his own in matters like calling at your home, drop him.Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a redhaired, blue-eyed" girl of twenty-one. I have been going with a fellow for four years. He has never asked me to marry him, although I am sure he has been on the point of asking me many times. A few months ago I learned from a friend that he was infatuated with a Dionae wno paints and powders to excess. I do not paint or powder a great deal. Do you suppose that is wny i lost him? vne oi our mutual mends sug gested that he did not care so much for me because I am so freckled. If you think this is true, what freckle cream would you ad vis me to use? How can I win back his love? IRISH LASSIE. It is impossible to say why one girl interests a man more than another. She may have more Intelligence, she may be about the same intelligence, but a little prettier, or she may not be superior in any way. Nevertheless a spark awakens in his . heart which makes him care for her. You say that you do not paint or powder a great deal. Your complexion would be very much better if you did not paint at all, and he would ad mire you just as much. I The following paste has proved ben- j cficial in the case of stubborn freckles: Oxide of zinc, one-half drara;j subicdide of bismuth, one-quarter dram; dextrin, one and three-quarters drams; glycerin, one and one-half drams. ' Spread the paste upon the freckles before going to bed. In the morning remove what remains with a little rowdered borax and sweet oil. Do not try to win back love. Be loveable and interested in the good things that come your way and some time some other young man will learn to care for you. "A Broken-Hearted Mother:" Your advice to your son was absolutely right. There is a saying that proximity is kin to love. Your son's love for the woman seems very real to him now, but after he has left the house and has been away from her for awhile he will see the situation with clearer eyes and will come out of the infatuation. I think you are truly blessed to be taken into his confidence and allowed to help. Everything is against happiness with the woman. It is evident that her husband is a good and loyal man and that he trusts his fellow men. To prove unworthy of that trust would hurt your son the rest of his life. Besides the difference in their ages is asainst a lasting love between them I agrei with you that something must be radically wrong with the character of a woman who is willing to desert her husband and give away her baby if another man will, promise to marry her.

head of a family." He turned to smile at me when he said this. Besides," he went on. "I have no future here. I have to make my way in the world, or Connie will never be satisfied with me." Of course I should,".! hurried to say. Fancy never being satisfied with Win! I looked up at his tall figure. He seemea so mucn tne nero to me though the-only thing I knew he had won, was a victory over an angry aunt. Otherwise I knew nothing of him yet I was sure he was endowed w ith all the heroic qualities. "But how will you live?" Mrs. Taylor asked. "Your salary now is only fifteen " "Yes, 1 suppose you know the city costs more!" Aunt Harriet put in.N "And you'll have to find a position," his mother went on. "That will take time. And you can't do anything but the work you've been in at the plant here. And you won't be able to live decently " "Possibly Mr. Taylor considers 'that since he has married a rich girl his own position does not matter," my aunt said icily. "I'm not a rich girl. Win and I agreed that I do not take any of my allowances from now on," I put In. "Which seems to me to make matters worse," Aunt Harriet remarked. And then she relapsed into an attitude of complete indifference which was more provoking than her old manner. "I haven't told you, Mother," Win said, turning towards the little lady, "that the Tankerville people Dromised me they would put me in their New York office when . I wanted to go. I asked them when I became engaged 10 uonstance, because I knew we would not want to be here forever." My niece, one of the Bennetts, liv-

The Adventure of the Copper Beeches By SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE Copyright, 1921, by Harper & Bros. Published by special arrangement with The McClure Newspaper Syndicate.

We were as good as our word, for ( it was just seven when we reached the Copper Beeches, having put up our trap at a wayside public-house. The group of trees, with their dark leaves shining like burnished metal in the light of the setting sun, were sufficient to mark the house even had Miss Hunter not been standing smiling on the doorstep. "Have you managed it?" asked Holmes. A loud thudding noise came from somewhere downstairs. "That is Mrs. Toller in the cellar," said she. "Her husband lies snoring on the kitchen rug. Here are his keys, which are the duplicates of Mr. Rucastle's." "You have done well indeed!" cried Holmes, with enthusiasm. "Now lead the way, and we shall soon see the end of this black business." We passed up the stairs, unlocked the door, followed on down a passage, and found ourselves in front of the barricade which Miss Hunter had de scribed. Holmes cut the cord and removed the transverse bar. Then he tried the various keys In the lock, but without success. No sound came from within, and at the silence Holmes' face clouded over. "I trust that we are not too late," said he. "I think. Miss Hunter, thatj we had better go in without you. Now, i Watson, put your shoulder to it, and we shall see whether we cannot make our way In." It was an old rickety door, and gave at once before our united strength. Together we rushed into the room. It was empty. There was no furniture save a little pallet bed, a small table, and a basketful of linen. The sky light above was open, and the prisoner gone. "There has been some villainy here," said Holmes; "this beauty has guessed Miss Hunter's intentions, and has carried his victim off." "But how?" "Through the skylight. We shall soon see how he managed it." He swung himself up onto the roof. "Ah, yes," he cried; "here's the end of a long light ladder against the eaves. That is how he did it." "But it is impossible," said Miss Hunter; "the ladder was not there when the Rucastles went away." "He has come back and done It. I tell you that he is a clever and dan gerous man. I should not be very much surprised if this were he whose step I hear now upon the stair. I think, Watson, that it would be as well for you to have your pistol ready." The words were hardly out of his mouth before a man appeared at the door of the room, a very fat and burly man, with a heavy stick in his hand. Miss Hunter screamed and shrunk against the wall at the sight of him, but Sherlock Holmes sprang forward and confronted him. "You villian," said he "where's your daughter?" The fat man cast his eyes round, and then up at the open skylight. "It is for me to ask you that," he shrieked, "you thieves! Spies and thieves! I have caught you, have I? You are in my power. I'll serve you!" He turned and clattered down the stairs as hard as he could go. "He's gone for the dog!" cried Miss Hunter.

ing on an office man's salary!" Aunt Harriet burst out Indignantly. "I won't have it." She turned around to me, her face showing her anger, her eyes flashing. "You certainly shall have your allowance. I won't allow you to live in some tiny uptown flat, and do your work I won't allow it. If you have been silly enough to marry a poor man youll just come live with me, both of you. I won t allow my niece She stopped, because little Mrs. Taylor was walking across the room towards her. That little lady's face was full of anger too. This time all the gray had gone out of it, she was animated, her cheeks pink, even her flat limp gray hair showed a little life. "She hasn't married a poor man," she began indignantly. "I won't have anyone call my Winthrop poor. He's got a lot of money. He can have all he wants of it anytime he wants. "I don't care whether your niece has money or not, she hasn't as much as my son! He didn't try to' better himself by marrying an heiress as you think! He could marry anyone, and I'll give him a handsome allowance!" "And keep me here at home, Moth-j er," Win put in. "Yes, much good money does him here," Aunt Harriet made a gesture that included all Wellsville in one supreme contempt. "He can live wherever he wants!" Mrs. Taylor burst out still more in dignantly.

Well, that settles it. Then we go.; TT '

You are both of you very charming ladies!" And Win went over to his mother and put his arms around her and kissed her. Then he went to my Aunt Harriet. He stood in front of her for a moment, a moment in which my heart stood perfectly still. He looked down at her, she looked up at him. He was smiling, she held her icy expression. Which one was going to win out this time? Tomorrow The Journey. "I have my revolver," said I. ' "Better close the front door." cried Holmes, and we all rushed down the stairs together. We had hardly reached the hall when we heard the baying of a hound, and then a scream of agony, with a horrible worrying sound which it was dreadful to listen to. An elderly man with a red face and shaking limbs came staggering out at a side door. "My God!" he cried. "Some one has loosed the dog. It's not been fed for two days. Quick, quick, or it'll be too late!" Holmes and I rushed out and round the angle of the house, with Toller hurrying behind us. There was the huge famished brute, its black muzzle buried in Rucastle's throat, while he writhed and screamed upon the ground. Running up, I blew its brains out, and it fell over with its keen white teeth still meeting in the great creases of his neck. With much labor we separated them, and carried him, living but horribly mangled, into the house. We laid him upon the drawing room sofa, and, having dispatched the sobered Toller to bear the news to his wife, I did what I could to relieve his pain. We were all assembled round him when the door opened, and a tall, gaunt woman entered the room. "Mrs. Toller!" cried Miss Hunter. "Yes, miss. Mr. Rucastle let me out when he came back before he went up to you. Ah, miss, it is a pity you didn't let me know what you were planning, for I would have told you that your pains were wasted." "Ha!" said Holmes, looking keenly at her. "It is clear that Mrs. Toller knows more about this matter than any one else." "Yes, sir, I do, and I am ready enough to tell what I know." "Then, pray, sit down, and let us hear it, for there are several points on which I must confess that I am still in the dark."

said she; "and I'd have done so before now if I could ha' got out from the cellar. If there's police-court business over this, youH remember that I was the one that stood your friend, and that I was Miss Alice's friend too. "She as never happy at home, Miss Alice wasn't, from the time that her father married again. She was slight-

jed like, and had no say in anything; but it never really became baa ior her until after she met Mr. Fowler at a friend's house. As well as I could learn, Miss Alice had rights of her own by will, but she was so quiet and patient, she was,, that she never said a word about them, but just left everything in Mr." Rucastle's hands. He knew he was safe with her; but when there was a chance of a husband com ing forward, who would ask for all that the law would give him, then her father thought it time to put a stop on it. He wanted her to sign a paper, so that whether she married or not, he could use her money. When she wouldn't do it, he kept on worrying her until she got brain-fever, and for six weeks was at death's door. Then she got better at last, all worn to a shadow, and with her beautiful hair cut off; but that didn't make no change in her young man, and he stuck to her as true as man could be." "Ah," said Holmes, "I think "that what you have been good enough to tell us makes the matter fairly clear, and that I can deduce all that remains. "Yes, sir.' "And brought Miss Hunter down from London in order to get rid of the disagreeable persistence of Mr. Fowler." "That was it, sir." "But Mr. Fowler being a persevering man, as a good seaman should be, blockaded the house, and, having met you, succeeded by certain arguments, metallic or otherwise, in convincing you that your interests were the same as his. "Mr. Fowler was a very kind-spoken, freehanded gentleman," said Mrs. Toller, serenely. "And in this way he managed that: your good man should have no want of drink, and that a ladder should be ready at the moment when your master had gone out." "You have it, sir, just as It happened." "I am sure we owe you an apology, Mrs. Toller," said Holmes, "for you have certainly cleared up everything which puzzled us. And here comes the country surgeon and Mrs. Rucastle, so I think, Watson, that we had best escort Miss Hunter back to Winchester, as it seems to me that our locus standi now is rather a questionable one." And thus was solved the mystery of the sinister house with the copper beeches in front of the door. Mr. tiucastie survived, Dut was always a broken man, kept alive solely through the care of his devoted wife. They still live with their old servants, who probably know so much of Rucastle's past life that he finds it difficult to part from them. Mr. Fowler and Miss Rucastle were married by special license, in Southampton the day after their flight, and he is now the holder of a Government appointment in the Island of Mauritius. As to Miss Violet Hunter, my friend Holmes, rather to my disappointment, manifested no further interest in her when once she had ceased to be the center of one of his problms, and she is now the head of a private school at Walsall, where I believe that she has met with considerable success.

Beauty Chats By Edna Kent Forbes Judging from the number of letters : I have received lately there is an increasing interest among my readers on the subject of reducing. I am always very glad to find this, for somehow to me a fat woman is a pathetic object in these very hot summer days. There is never any reason why a woman should be fat. It is so easy to reduce if one will only put one's mind to it. There are ,a few simple principles which everyone must learn, and after that the whole thing is only a matter of addition and subtraction. If you weigh more than you should you are eating too much. You may not want to admit it, few people do, but I am sorry to say the fact remains, nevertheless. The easiest thing in finding out what you should eat is to make a study of what you are eating now. What you are eating now constitutes your maintenance diet, it is the thing that is keeping you too fat. Take a list of caloric values, lists which are published in this space from time to time, and by use of them find out just what the caloric value of your present diet Is. That it is too much you will know from the fact that it is maintaining you at your present, overweight. You will have to eliminate about 1,000 calories a day. You are probably eating 3,000 or more. These figures are very general but they will serve you as a beginning. Another time I will talk again about the actual caloric value of various foods. If you do not wish to make a study of these values you can cut down on the amount of food that you are taking. If you think you are eating more than 3,000 calories you will not have to do much studying to eliminate a third in the amount of food. Girl: G. M. H.; R. M. D.
