"The Love Pendulum" By MARION RUBINCAM

THE NEW LIFE BEGINS. Chapter 27. "What does it mean?" I asked, still puzzled. "It means I've lost my job," Win said crossly. "I know. You said that. But does it mean that we will be quite poor?" I believe I asked that rather hopefully. Nothing would have pleased me better than to have lost all our money, for then I could take charge of everything .then I could really, use my newly acquired domestic skill. But Win laughed. "Not a bit of it," he said. "We've still the $10,000 a year allowance that mother s-tnrts. and I can persuade her to raise it if 1 want. She is so mad at your aunt for looking down on Wellsville. that she will send me all the money I can use." "But then why bother about a po

sition that paid so badly?" "Oh, because we will need more than my allowance and I have to work anyway. I will have to look around for something else tomorrow." "When did you find this out?" i asked. "This morning." "Did you start looking around then?" "What on earth are you driving at?" Win cried in sudden annoyance. No, I didn't. I met that chap Charles Young, the one we met at the hoof srarden the first nisrht we came. We

had lunch together and he ran me out to Long Island for a spin along the speedway. He can go in that car of his. We will have to get one some day." I decided not to answer. I disliked Young very much, his name had been mentioned with others in some very strange dealings in the financial district, and gossip of it had reached me the winter before. Besides he had queer black eyes and a sleek little moustache and his manners were smooth to the point of insolence. "I like him," Win went on. "I asked him up for dinner some night. He said he could come Friday." "This is Tuesday. Very well." I turned away and walked over to the tiny fireplace in the room. "You don't seem very cheerful aboui it." Win remarked, walking up and down the room. "Don't act like mother. She used to row awfully

when T hrnneht anv one home for

dinner. I suppose she wanted to fuss and bnke cakes and things like that." 'Tf I'm not cheerful, it's because I

r.nn't iik Tr Vniine. not because I

don't like euests." I answered. "Why not? Isn't he all right? I think he is fine." "He's well, he just doesn't go with very nice people. I can't explain," I paid desperately. "I can't tell you

why he isn't nice. Wait until you meet the people that are I sound like

a snob. But wait, ana you win "All right." Win answered cheer fully, and settled himself in a corner of the couch to smoke a cigarette. "Let's go out and meet these very nice people then. How about this evening? Let's go to a show and then dance." "This evening?" "Yes. Why not?" "But it's our first evening here. We have just moved in. Don't you want to to well, to stay home?" "Why?" Win looked his intense f-urprise. "There are lots of other evenings." Once aeain that great wave of dis

appointment went over me. I turned my head, it seemed so childish to show it. There was silence for awhile. I wished that Ellen would announce dinner, but it was the first evening.

and I could not blame the new cook for being late. I did so want to stay home! (There were so many things to ask Win about, where he wanted things placed, how he liked his room and I thought it would be charming to build a little fire in the new fireplace and simply sit there together. It was our fireplace, our home. Why didn't he have

the same ideas about it I had? "What's the matter?" Win asked, but his tones had more exasperation than sympathy. "No thins;." I answered. "I am a little tired perhaps. "I'm sorry," he tossed his cigarette into the fireplace and came over to me. In a moment he had picked me up and pulled me down on the couch beside him. "I'm so sorry;" I didn't know you were tired. What have you been doing?"

"Oh, nothing. Hanging curtain.

and moving furniture around. Ellen! and I put up the beds. And I gave j you my little boudoir for a smoking room. "I am a brute!" Win said again. Did you have a lot of romantic ideas about our staying here in our own little home tonight?" I nodded. His sympathy was bringing the tears his annoyance had not, and could not start. "All right, we will stay. I suppose I was cross because I was upset about losing that place. I wanted to get out and forget it" "I think it would rest me to see a show and a dance," I answered. His evident pleasure at this settled it. I knew then that whenever Win was tired or cross or upset, the thing to do was to take him whes there was diversion. I was tired and my back was aching again. But we went to a musical show and we went to a big hotel ballroom, and danced until early in the morning. And so we passed that first evening and so we passed a great many other evenings.

had inexhaustible stores

energy upon which to draw. His

springy step never slowed until suddenly, when he was a hundred yards in front of me, he halted, and I saw him throw up his hand with a gesture of grief and despair. At the sane instant an empty dog-cart, the horse cantering, the reins trailing appeared round the curve of the road and rattled swiftly towards us. "Tod late. Watson, too late!" cried Holmes, as I ran panting to his side. "Fool that I was, not to allow for that earlier train! It's abduction, Watson ab d u ct i o n ! 1 Murder ! Heaven knows what! Block the road! Stop the horse! That's right. Now

jump in, and let us see if I can re

pair the consequences of my own blunder. - We had sprung into the dog-cart, and Holmes, after turning the horse gave it a sharp cut with the whin, an 1 we flew back along the road. As we turned the curve, the whole stretch of road between the Hall and the heath was opened up. I grasped Holme's arm. "That's the man!" I gasped. A solitary cyclist was coming towards us. His head was down and his shoulders rounded, as he put every

ounce of energy that he possessed on to the pedals. He was flying like a racer. Suddenly he raised his bearded

of nervous: "Halloa! Stop a minute! Who's this

in tne Dusnr It was a young fellow about seventen, dressed like an ostler, witli leather cords and gaiters. He lay upon his back, his knees drawn up, a terrible cut upon his head. He was insensible, but alive. A glance at his wound told me that it had not penetrated the bone. "That's Peter, the groom," cried the stranger. "He 4 drove her. Th'J beasts have pulled him aff and clubbed him. Let him lie; we can't do him any good, but we may save her from the worst fate that can befall a woman.' Tomorrow The Adventure of the

making and after a young man has gone with you a few times he loses your love-making repulsive. Men as a whole demand wholesomer.ess in women. They want the woman they marry to be as good as their mother. There is nothing more noble in life than a woman who brings out the better nature of men.

PART FOUR ' The Thursday brought us another letter from our client. "You will not be surprised Mr. Holmes," said she, "to near that I am

leaving Mr. Carruthers' employment.

Even the high pay cannot reconcile me to the discomforts of my situation. On Saturday, I come up to town and I did not intend to return. Mr. Carruthers has got a trap, and so the dangers of the lonely road, if there ever were any dangers, are now over." 'As to the special cause of my leaving it is not merely the strained situation with Mr. Carruthers, but it is the re-appearance of that odious man, Mr. Woodley. He was always hideous, but he looks more awful than ever now, for he appears to have had

an accident, and he is much disfigur

ed. I saw him out of the window but I am glad to say I did not meet him. He had a long talk with Mr.

Carruthers, who seemed much excited afterwards. Woodley must be staying in the neighborhood, for he did . net sleep here, and yet I caught a glimpse of him again this morning, slinking about in the shrubbery. I would sooner have a savage wild animal loos.i about the place. I loathe and fear him more than I can say. How can Mr. Carruthers endure such a creature for a moment? However, all my troubles will be over on Saturday. "So I trust Watson, so I trust," said Holmes gravely. "There is some deep intrigue going on round that little woman, and it i3 our duty to see that no one molests her upon that last journey. I think, Watson,

that we must spare the time to run down together on Saturday morning, and make sure that this curious and inclusive investigation has no un toward ending.' I confess that I had not up to now taken a very serious view of the case, which had seemed to me rather grotesque, and bizarre, than dangerous. That a man should lie in wait

for and follow a very handsome wo-' man is no unheard-of thing, and if he has so little audacity that he not ony dared not address her, but even fle'l , from her approach, he was not a very i formidable assilant. The ruffian Wood-1 ley was a very different person, but, I

except on one occasion, he had noi

molested our client, and now he visited the house of Carruthers without intruding upon her presence. Th-i man on the bicycle was doubtless a member of those week-end parties

at the hall of which the publican had spoken, but who he was, or what he wanted, was as obscure as ever. Ii was the severity of Holmes's manner, and the fact that he slipped a revolver into his pocket, before leaving our rooms which impressed me with the feeling that tragedy might prove to lurk behind this curious train of events. A rainy night had been followed by a glorious morning, and the' heath-

covered country-side, with the glowing clumps of flowering gorse, seemed

all the more beautiful to eyes which

were weary of the duns and drabs

and slate-greys of Lopdon. Holme and I walked along the broad sandy road inhaling the fresh morning air, and rejoicing in the music of the birds and the fresh breath of the spring. From a rise of the road on the shoulder of Crooksbury Hill, we could see the grim hall bristling out from amidst the ancient oaks, which, old as they were, were still yonger than the building which they . surrounded

Pull up, man! he yelled drawing a pistol from his side pocket. "Pull up, I say, or by George, I'll put a bullet into your horse.' , Holmes threw the reins into my lap, and sprang down from the cart. "You're the man we want to see. Where is Miss Violet Smith?" be saia, in his quick, clear way. "That's what I'm asking you. You're in her dog-cart.

Holmes gave an exclamation of impatience. 4 "I have given a margin of half an hour," he said. "If that is her trap she must be making for the earlier train. I fear Watson, that she will be past Charlington before we can possibly meet her." From the instant that we passed the rise, we could no longer see the vehicle, but we hastened onwards at such a pace that my sedentary life

THE

TRIALS OF A HOUSEWIF

How They Have Been Endured and How Overcome by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Experience of a Providence Woman

Providence, R. I. "I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for a female trouble and backache. It began just after my baby was born, and 1 did the best I could about getting my work done, but I had awful bearing-down pains so I could not stand on my feet. I read in the papers about Lydia E. Pinkham 's Vegetable Compound and the good it was doing other women, and I have got dandy results from it and will always recommend it. You can use these facts as a testimonial if you wish." Mrs. Herbert L. Cassen, IS Meni Court, Providence, R. I. Ohio woman for three years could hardly keep about and do her housework she was so ill. Made well hy Lydia IS. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound: Fayette, O. ''For about threeyears I was very nervous and had backache, sideache, dragging-down pains, could not sleeD atnieht. and had no annp-

tite. At times I could hardly do my housework. I got medicine from the doctor but it did not help me. I saw Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound advertised in a newspaper and took it with good results, and am now able to do my housework. I recommend your medicine to my friends and you may publish my testimonial.' Mrs. Chester A. Ball, R. 15, Fayette, Ohio. An I llinois woman relates her experience : Bloomington, 111. " I was never very strong and female trouble kept me so weak I had no interest in my housework. I had such a backache I could not cook a meal or sweep a room without raging with pain. Rubbing my back with alcohol sometimes eased the pain for a few hours, but did not stop it. I heard of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and six bottles of it have made me as strong and healthy as any woman ; and I give my thanks to it for my health." Mrs. J.A.McQuiTTY, 610 W. Walnut St., Bloomington, 111. The conditions described by Mrs. Cassen, Mrs. Ball, and Mrs. McQuitty will appeal to many women who struggle on with their daily tasks in just such conditionsin fact, it is said that the tragedy in the livesof some women is almost beyond belief. Day in and day out they slave in their homes for their families and beside the daily routine of housework, often make clothes for themselves and for their children, or work in their gardens, all the w hile suffering from those awful bearing-down pains, backache, headaches, nervousness, the blues, and troubles which sap the very foundation of life until there comes a time when nature gives out and an operation seems inevitable. If such women would only profit by the experience of these three women, and remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's "Vegetable Compound is the natural restorative for such conditions it may save them years of suffering and unhappiness. There is hardly a neighborhood in any town or hamlet in the United States wherein some woman does not reside who has been restored to health by this famous medicine. Therefore ask your neighbor, and you will find in a great many cases that at some time or other she, too, has been benefited by taking it, and will recommend it to you. For more than forty years this old-fashioned root and herb medicine hasbeen restoring suffering women to health and strength. Lydia K.
