"What time ar you setting that l.r?"' demanded Warr-n, as Hebn vsicind the alarm or. the small nkl;l cluck. "Half pa.n thro-." "Half paM thrt.-. Why In th::nd'.r do you want to k t up at that hour?" 'Ih'.ir. I must. I'w so much to do." "Ju.-t liko a woman putting everything off till the last moment and tin :i l.r-akin he r neck to et through." "Warren I haven't put things off. Hut df ar, you needn't get up thai arly." "Should 5a y T wouldn't. Hut that inf'-rnal thing will oil and wake mo n w a v." "S. dar: 1'il lie in the front room o you won't hear it." It was after twelve, when Helen finally threw hf rs If on th front room couch. many things were still to don-, th-tt sh- would have worked through the ni;ht had she not feared to tax htr strength. too niuch, lest she more apt to sasifk. Above verythin el.-e Helen had a horror of h-int; seasick. .he had never been on the oc ean, and now her !.rsi trip held for her all the possibilities of the unknown. I tut. tired as sht w as, lier fear that the alarm mlnht fail to rinur off, or that bh'- miKht not hear it. kept In r from sleeping, bvcry few moments she would wake . from her troubled dozo to look at the clock. icts Vp At Threv. Realizing that she was not restin?, she ot up at three, moving about very softly lio as not to disturb "Warren. Then to make quite sure that he would not hear the alarm, she buried the rlcck under the couch pillows, where it went off half an hour later, its shrillness smothered to a sullen buzziness. While- her steamer trunk was almost packed, there were still many small things to be put in the tray and hand bag1. Helen p.leked everything -with a. painstaking rare and a beautiful preision, hut she did it very slowly. Almo. t every article had to be wrapped in tissue paper and lilted in with anxious exactness. But far more ditticult than the packing was the deciding of what to or not to take. Would she need this pair of low shoes or another pair of hUh ones? And how many shirt waists should she take? How long would it be before they could et any laundry done in London? And if she took heavy underwear for the steamer she would have to take a lighter weight for Indon. Yet how could she take so many things with only a small Fteamer trunk and a hand bag? ono problem after another eonfronted her, but it was her indecision, her lack of knowing what she would need most, that made the packing such a long and anpruishin task. The boat was to sail at 10. and Warren had ordered a cab for S ::".(.. And now through th early morning hours Helen worked with an anxious determination to KCt everything in shape so at the lat she would not be hurried and lingered and go off with something .forgotten. At first they intended taking Winifred, but Warreii's mother had insisted that It would bo foolish to drag a ehild of that age to Kuropo and that .'-be would be much better off with h r. Warren had agreed with "hi mother, mid Helen was finally forced to cont ent. They had takt n her over yesterday. She had ened a little at first, but had been pacified with a new set of doll dishes, and they had loft her sitting on the lloor setting the "tea t;ble". Cries )cr Separation. Helen had restrained her own tears until they were outside, where Warren told her not to be a "littb ci.".V. Said wis mother had rai.--d six children of her own, and was certainly competent to take care of another, which was unquestionably true, but which did not make the parting any less hard. Had Helen known in the beginning that she could not take Winifred she would not have wanted to ro. Hut now it was too late to protest. At live it was lU'ht enough to raise the blinds and turn off the lights. At r,:H0 she went to awaken Warren. He stretched, yawned and stared at her sieepilv. "Huh! Six-thirty! All rhrht. I ll get up In a moment. Turn on my bath in there, will you." GIRL VERY SI Tells How She Was Made Well by LydiaE.Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. New Orleans, La.

Hep-n knew he had room in his trunk', but refrained from asking him t put in any more of her thintrs, knowing he would only grumble ahr t taking -so many unnecessary "trumperies". Delia "had breakfast ready at half past ffven. Helen went to the table, poured Warren's coffee and then rose hurriedly. "Dear. I don't want v. bite for breakfast and there are some thins I must " "Now, you sit down there and eat something," he ordered. "You've pottered around here half the nicht and now you say you haven't time for breakfast." And Helen was forced to come back .'.nd Kulp down .some coffee and toast, r.ut in a. moment ?he -wan up aain, putting the last few toilet things in

"Yes, dear in just a second," fluttering anxiously over the tray to be sure that everything was in and securely packed. "Here," as ho pushed her aside and closed and locked the trunk, "you'd never have it ready. Now there's your key," handing it to her. "S.Ve that you don't lone it. Bag ready?" turning to lock it. "Xo no, dear, not quite. I'll have it ready in a moment." "Well, you'll have to get a move on you it's ten minutes after eight now. You can't leave everything till the last second." In spite of Helen's efforts to get I everything ready in time, the last few moments found her hurried and Must ered and fearful that something had been overlooked. U'aiior had already tagged the bagpage whh the "First Cabin Wanted on Voyage" tags, strapped his cane with the two umbrellas, rolled their j raincoats in the shawl strap with the steamer rugs, and now stood waiting patiently, his overcoat on his arm. Helen was darting anxiously from one room to another, trying to make , sure that she had forgotten nothing, ',.11 . V, a: 1 . ii r mi me nine giiug repeated uireeiion: to Helia about closing everything up before she left, for Delia, after giving the apartment a thorough cleaning, was to go to her sister's for the six week's they would be away. "Here's the cab now," announced Warren, as the telephone rang. With nervous, hurried fingers Helen tied on her veil while the elevator boy took down the baggage. "Come on." shouted Warren from the hail, as he whisked her into the levator while she was still calling back directions to Delia. Down stairs the two steamer trunks were already on the cab top and the hand baggage inside. liiindles Her In. "Hetter drive down the avenue and across Twenty-Fourth St.." Warren called to the driver, as he bundled Heb n into the cab, jumped in after her and slammed the door. Heb n leaned back, her heart Muttering with excitement and her mind in a whirl, trying to think if there was anything she had forgotten or had failed to tell Delia. Warren, after settling the suit ease, hag, steamer roll and umbrellas on the seat opposite, glanced at his watch and le:ined back with an air of relief. "Well, we're off." Then noticing Helen's anxious expression. "What's the matter with you?" "Nothing, dear, I I was only wondering if 1 put in my overshoes." 'Tor heaven's sake, don't begin now to think of the things you've left. You weri pottering around there 11 night ought to have gotten things in." For several blocks Helen gazed out of the window in abstracted silence, while the cab rumbled along the quiet street in the early morning. Suddenly she made a little start of dismav. "Well, what is it now?" asked' Warren, with good humored contempt. "Oh. dear. I didn't bring the scissors! I had them out 1 cut that cord and forgot to put them back. I must have left them on the bureau." "Well, what If you did? ('an get scissors in London, can't you?" "Yes. Put we'll need them on the steamer." "Jove, you are the limit! Here you've been wild about gointr. and now that we're really off you're not thinking .-boat the trip, but of some fool thing you've left behind." IT WAS NO APRIL FOOL BUT WOMEN THOUGHT SO Attempts to Heuch iroeery Store cr l'hone Are Futile, For Croeers Take Afternoon Off. Many of South Ihmd's housekeepers yesteriif.y thought they were the vict'ms of "April Fool." when all attempts to secure priH Ties in the afternoon proved futile. The telephone bdls were kept busy most of the afternoon but there were no answers. Fhargts of failure to attend to business were mild compared to others. J when there was no answer. Many of the women insisted somebody was goir.ir too far, even for April first and aire threats of changing to another :roc r were heard. However the proccrymen are not worrying and know that they can explain the situation if they get a chance today. It was the first Wednesday in April and also the first Wednesday on whi"h the local grocers close during the afternoon. The procerman anil his help took their afternoon off and w;ll continue to do so every Wednesday afternoon until November 1.

FIGURES FOR MARCH SHOW BUILDING BOOM More T2i an Twice the Amount of Work Over tlie Ircocdiii .Month i Started. There has been two times as much building planned in South Herd during the last month as there was during March of lin When the spring outside season opens every carpenter is assured of plenty of work, as according" to the reports of the board of public works, a building boora has struck the city and before the year closes It is probable that many more buildings will be completed. As compared with other cities South P.end leads a good many in her clars for the amount of construction work being made. Xo largo projects have been begun although a large amount of small work will prive the contractor plenty- to do. During the last month p?rmits for the construction of buildings aggregating in ail a cost of more than $tio,mo were taken out. A year ago the ligures for the same month were less than half this amount or approximately $30,000. Several large residences vrero planned and permits were granted to the contractors. Plans are beimr made for a large number more homes as well as a larjro amount for improvement and repair work. During February of this year $43,950 was the fignrs for permits taken out. Many of the cities show a big lo;s In the percentage usually turned in by the monthly reports. K. A- S. Hock hcer i-i making South i I lend famous. Adv.
