And yet even Mrs. Kip admitted that
the wholo array was far beyond the

she Insisted that he could provide a
partial trousseau at least. Sho herself
would "go without things" for ten
years If necessary.
Daphne, however, was haunted by
the vision of hor father's harrowed,
money-hungry fnco. When her mother
reminded her that It was bis last
chance to do anything for her, sho re
torted, "Yes, and It's my lust chunco
to do anything for him."
Her prldo was wrung by her plight.
Sho must either go shabby or cause
acute distress to one or both of the
men that were dearest of all In thu
CHAPTER VI Continued.
Her sympathies would ordlnnrlly
jiavo been with her brother In nny dls
tuto between him and his wife. But
this was n dispute between Bnyard
and love. It was sacrilegious for him
to go on reading tho Times when his
fbrldo had so much moro Important
things to discuss. Ho heard her dis
cuss them ns through n morning paper
darkly, and ho mado tho wrong an
swers, and finally ho snatched out his
watch, glared it in tho face, gasped,
and attacked tho nst of his breakfast
llko a train-catcher nt a lunch-counter.
It was thus thnt ho heard Leila wall,
"What's to becomo of me nil morn
ing?" Bayard stared at her sharply,, but
npoko softly enough: "Why, I don't
know, honey. There ought to bo plenty
for you to do. The Lord knows thcro's
enough for mo at tho ofllcc."
"All right," sighed Lclln. "I'll be
bravo and worry through somehow, till
noon, with my sweet new sister's help.
But we'll come down and lunch with
you. About what time do you go out
to luncheon, By?"
Bayard's answer wns discouraging:
This Is ono of tho threo dnys a week
when tho heads of tho firm always
lunch nt Delmonlco's In a private room,
rm afraid I can't lunch with you to
day." "And you'll leave mo this wholo tor
rlblo day? I can never exist so long
without you."
"I'm mighty sorry, honey. But men
must work, nnd-so-forth. I've been
away too long. Tho olllco needs me.
lAnd I'vo spent a lot of money, and I've
got to go down and earn some moro to
touy pretty tilings for my beauty"
This brightened her In a way ho had
not expected, nnd a llttlo too far be
yond his hopes. Gloom left her face
llko a cloud whipped from beforo the
iron. Sho dazzled him with her smile.
"Oh, I know what to dol Daphno
and your mother and I can go shop
ping." Bayard's heart flopped. IIo won
dered what on earth moro thcro was
In tho shops that she could want to
buy. Sho had como to tho mnrrlago
vlth her trousseau only partly com
pleted, on account of tho haste of tho
wedding. But she had bought and
bought In Europe. Sho had mado his
honeymoon anxious by her rapacity
for beautiful tilings to wear. And now
that they hnd como to Now York with
their old trunks bulging and new
trunks bought nbrond bulging, nnd hnd
paid a thumping sum nt tho custom

What ho wanted to do was to quit
buying for a whllo and sell something.

had not yet removed tho sugar stick
'that stops tho tonguo from criticism.
Leila grew moro cheerful at a tcr
trifying rnto: "Go on to your old
luncheon, my dear child, and Dnplino
nnd your mother and I will go on a
npn-a iu uiu Biiops. 'xnen won uu
jhave a bnnquct tonight nnd n theater,
and If wo'ro not too tired, a supper;

Wot good ones, I wnnt to envo you as
pnuch trouble as I can, honey. So run
along to your offlco and don't worry
about us. But you must miss me
(frightfully 1 Will you?"
1 Ho vowed that ho would, nnd ho
meant it Sho was a most mlssnblo
creature.
Ho roso to leave, but she stopped
him to cay, "What piny shall wo seo?"
Tills wan tho occasion for elaborate
dobato till Bayard gave signs of trum
peting hla wrath and bolting.
Leila graciously released him only to
call him back to say that ho had for
gotten his nowspuper.
"I left It for you. Don't you want to
read it?" ho askod. "I can get another
at tho subway station."
8he shook her head: "Thcro's noth
ing interesting In tho papers. I'm Just
xrom Purls, and I know moro about tho
fashions than they do."
Bayard shuddered a little, Inly. Tho
times were epic. Immortal progress
was being mado ns never beforo: an
cient despotisms wero turning Into re
publics, republics wero at war with
ono another; constitutions, labor prob
lems, Ufa problems, all soclul institu
tions, wero being ripped up nnd re
mndc, all tho relations of masters and
men, mistresses, children, wives, animals.
Yet Leila snld thcro wns nothing In
tho papers! Revolutionary news meant
to her a change In tho fashion In
sleeves, tho shift of tho equatorial
waistline a trlflo nearer the bust or a
trltlo nearer the hips, tho release of
tho ankles from tight skirts. Tho grent
rebellion In her world wns tho nbrupt
decision of tho dressmakers that after
years of costumes clinging more and
more closely to tho human outline they
would depart from It in every way
possible. Leila was Interested vitally
In what women would weur and what
they would leavo off, und grandly in
'different to which rations were shoot
ing at which. Bayard hesitated, ap
pealed again to his watch, gasped at
tho hour and the minutes, kissed Leila
violently, kissed Daphno und kissed
his mother nnd rushed for tho door.
Leila put out her arms again.
"I must bo Inst," sho cried, nnd as
he bowed Into her amis sho kissed his
enr nnd whispered, "nnd first, too, and
all tho bctwecna.
Bnyard was 11 business man from his
crndlo days. IIo loved promptitude.
IIo blushed to nrrlvo Into at his ofllco
and set n bad example to his stenog
raphers and clerks. It was his creed
that success comes to those who arrlvo
earlier on tho battlefield thnn tho oth
ers, fight harder, stay longest thcro,
and end every day with tho next day's
maneuvers clearly realized as part of
tho next month's campaign.
Thcro was need for concentration in
his business, for ho had brought back
from Kuropo a sense of great disaster
In tho air. And thcro was no encour
agement In American business except
nn Instinctive feeling thnt tho worst
must bo over becnuso It hud lasted so
long.

former extravagances by present econ
omies. Hid. people wero positively
boastful of their penuries.
Tho threo women assailed a list of
thlncs for Daphne's trousseau with tho
world to her. She must leave behind
her n burden of debt us n farewell
tribute to her father, or she must
bring with her a burden of debt us hor
dot.
"No I" sho cried, with n sudden Im
patient Mush at the Gordlan knot.
"Clay will have to take mo Just as 1
am or take back his diamond ring he
wished on mc."
Her defiance wan not convincing.
Dor mother protested:
"It's not Clay that you havo to con
sider. He'll never know what you
have on. It's tho guests at tho wed
ding and your old friends nnd tho
neighbors. You don't want them to
think we're poor nnd thnt your father
Is marrying you off cheap, do you?"
Daphne flnred back, "It seems
mighty foolish to go and mako yourself
really poor In order to keep from seem
ing poor, especially when you never
fool anybody except yourself l"
Leila, with the magnanimity of a na
tive spendthrift, tried to soothe tho
fever of tho rebel : "Let's go prowling
around, anyway. I may see something
I want for myself. Bayard dragged mo
away from Paris beforo I had finished
shopping. Thero are several things I
need despcrutely."
Tho threo wiso women set forth:
they Jolucd the pettlcoatcd army pour
ing from all tho homes like a levco en
masse, a foray of pretty Iluns.
They reached tho alluring place
whero tho famous Dutllh, like an amia
ble Mephlstopheles, offered to buy
souls in exchango for robes of angelic
charm.
In tho window, on a dummy, with no
bend, no feet, and a whlto satin bust,
hung a gown that seemed to cry aloud
to Daphno:
"I belong to you and you belong to
me 1 Fill mo with your flesh and I will
cover you with nn aureole."
The three forlorn women understood
tho message Instantly. They looked at
ono another, then, without a word, en
tered tho shop, doomed in advance.
Leila was known to Dutllh and ho
greeted her with nn extravagant im
pudenco that terrified Mrs. Kip :
"You llttlo devil 1" he hissed. "Get
right out of my theater. How dare you
como hero after letting somebody elso
build your trousseau?"
Leila apologized and explained nnd
he pretended to bo mollified ns ho pre
tended to hnvo been insulted. Having
thus made tho field his own, he turned
to Dnplino, studied her frankly with
narrowed eyes ns If sho wero asking
to bo a model, nnd sighed:
"Oh, what a narrow escape I"
Daphne Jumped and gasped, "From
what?"
"That gown in tho window, that Lan
vln that was born for you. YVu must
havo seen it tho afternoon ono in
parchment-toned tnffeta and tulle."
Tho women, astounded by fils Intui
tion, nodded and breathed hard, llko
terrified converts at a seance. He was
referring to tho ono thnt belonged to
Daphne, nnd he ordered her to get into
it at once.
Sho demurred: "I'm afraid of tho
price. How much Is it, plcnsc?"
"Don't talk of monoyl" Dutllh
stormed. "I hate It I Let's see tho
gown on you." Ho cnllcd one of his
tawny manikins, "nelp Miss Kip Into
this gown, Muryla."
A mournful-eyed beauty led Daphne
Into a dressing room nnd acted as
maid. Daphno stepped out of her street
suit Into tho Parisian froth as If she
wero going from chrysalis to butterfly.
Muryla was murmurous with horango
as she fastened It together and led
Daphne forth. '
Mrs. Kip folt as if sho had surren
dered a mcro daughter and received
back a seraphic changeling. Daphno
wns no longer a prcity girl; sho was
something ethereal, bewitched and be
witching. If sho could own thnt gown
her mother would bo repaid for all her
pangs from travail on. She would ac
cept tho gown as advance royalty on
any futuro hardships.
Daphno looked about for Leila, but
Leila was gone. Sho reappeared a
moment later In a costume almost
more delicious than Dnphno's a tunic
of peach-blow tullo caught up with
pink rosebuds and hanging from n
draped bodice of peach-blow satin that
formed a yoko low on tho hips. And
thero wns a narrow pettlcont of peach
pink satin. It was as if peaches bad
a soul, as porhaps they have.
Perfect happiness is said to need a
bit of horror to mako it complete. Tho
happiness of tho two girls did not lack
that element. Tho price of their glory
furnished It. They asked tho cost
with nnxlousncss.
Said Dutllh : "To Miss Kip I'll lot it
go dirt cheap for threo hundred and
twenty-five. Tho ono Miss er Mrs.
Kip has on I'll glvo away for ummb,
well say tho samo price."
Daphno and her mother wero sick
ened But Daphno was suffering one
of thoso gusts of mania that ruin peo
ple, ner soul of souls clamored to
wear thnt very gown thnt very nftcr
noon. Even to take it off would hurt
like flaying.
Leila hail the same feeling. Her np
petlto for resplendent gowns had
grown with exercise.
Dutllh took pity on them: "Look
hero," he said, "I'll make the price two
hundred and seventy-live. It's giving
them away, hut you are such visions In
them 1"
It was a big reduction, but It left the
price still mountain high.
"I want something to wear tomor
row afternoon," Lelln said. "I'vo got
to go to a tea and my sister has to go
with me."
Daphne had not hoaid of tho ten,
but sho wanted somewhere to go In
that gown.
Dutllh smllt'd: "Nothing easier.
Take the duds with you or let mo send
them. Whoro arc you living now?"
Leila mado u confession : "The
trouble Is, Mr. Dutllh, that I'm Just
back from Paris and I haven't a cent
loft, and Miss Kip Is buying hor trous
scan and has spent more already than
she expected to."
Dutllh rose to the bait that he hnd
exported them to dangle: "That's
simple. Why not open an account with
me? Take the gowns along and pay
me when you like."
Lelln mumbled, "I Hhoulil have to
ask my husband."
Dnplino said, "My father wouldn't
like mc to start an account."
"Charge It to your sister's account,
then, and pay her."
"You say you would charge them
both to me?" said Leila.
"Certainly," said Dutllh.
"Send them, then," suld Leila, with
Imperial brevity.
"Thank you," Dutllh smiled. "You
shall have them this afternoon. And

Daphne.
by tho way, I've Just remembered a
marvelous design by Paul Polret's. Let
mo show it to you."
"Come quick; let's run," said Daph
ne, and she hurried out of the Infernal
paradise.
They dawdled on, down the avenue,
pausing at window after window, each
flaunting opportunities for self-im
provement. But Daphne's Joy In her
now gown wns turning to remorse. She
was realizing that that parchment
toned tnffeta needed pnrchment-toned
stockings and slippers and n hat of the
samo era as the gown.
Sho was startled from her reveries
by the sudden gasp of Leila :
"It there Isn't Tom Duane Just com
ing out of his club!"
"I met him lust night," enld Daphne.
"You did? Did he say ho knew md?"
"ne snld that Bayard stole you from
him."
Leila wus fluttered, but loyul : "Non
sense. I wns never his to steal. I
nover loved him, of course. It wouldn't
hnvo done nny good If I hnd. Tom
Dunne's a nonraarrler."
"ne's uwfully rich, I suppose," said
Daphne.
"No, not rich at all, as rich people
go. But he was mentioned the other
day in the will of un old aunt ho used
to bo nice to. no's nice to everybody."
Duano met them now and puuscd,
bareheaded, to greet Daphne with flat
tering cordlnllty. She wns greatly set
up to bo remembered. She presented
him to her mother, who wns complete
ly upset nt having to meet so fnmous
an aristocrat right out In tho street
when she was still flustered over tho
ferocious price of Daphne's new dress.
"Will you have a blto of lunch with
mo?" asked Duauc.
"Wo wero Just going to hnvo some
thing somewhere," said Mrs. Kip.
"My husband would object," said
Leila.
"I'm not Inviting you," said Duane,
"I'm Inviting tho genuine Mrs. Kip.
You may como along ns old mnrrled
chaperon, If you hnvo to."
"But Miss Kip Is engaged."
"So I suspected. That's why rm
Inviting her. I feel safe."
As they turned east into Forty-
fourth street and entered Delmonlco's
tho cnrrlngo mnn saluted Dunne,
pedestrian as ho was, called him by
name, and seemed to bo hnpplor for
seeing him. Tho doormnn smiled nnd
bowed him In by name, and Duano
thanked him by name. Tho hat-boys
greetod him by nnmo and did not give
him a check. Tho head waltor beamed
as if a long-awaited guest of honor
had como, and tho captains bowed nnd
bowed,
Duano did not ask his guests what
they, would have,
told him in n low volco what ho ongM
to have.
Daphno rejoiced. All luxury wns
music to her. Flno clothes, flno foods
on fine dishes, flno horses, motors, fur
nitures, flno everything, gave her an
exultation of soul like tlio thrill of a
religion.
Now York wns heaven on earth. Tho
streets wero gold, tho buildings of Jas
per, and the people angels good
angels or bad, as the case might be,
but still angels. She wanted to be an
angel.
Among the squads of men nnd wom
en camped about the llttlo tables sho
mndo out .Sheila Kcmblc again, In a
knot of elderly women of manifest Im
portance. "Isn't thnt Sheila Kemblo?" Daphno
asked.
"Yes, Hint's Sheila," snld Dunne, and
hn waved to hor and Rie to lilni. IIo
turned back to Daphne. "Awfully nice
girl. Llko to moot hor?"
"I'm crazy to."
"I'd bring you together now, but
she's completely sujTounded by
gratides dames."
He mimed tho women, and Mrs. Kip
guppd at thorn as If they wore a group
of Valkyrs In Valhalla. Jt startled her
to see them paying such court to nn
actress. She said so.
"All gront successes lovo one nn
other," Duanu explnlnod. "Those old
Indies wero geniuses nt gulling horn In
the host fnmlllos, and Sheila has
earned her place. Sho looks a bit
like your daughter, don't you think?"
Mrs. Kip tilted her bend and studied
Miss Kcmblc nnd nodded. Sho made
the Important amendment. "She looks
Ulce she used to look like Daphne."
"That's bettor," said Tom Dunne.
"Miss Kip might be her understudy."
"How much does an understudy
get?" said Daphno, abruptly.
"I haven't the faintest Idea!" Dunno
exclaimed. "Not much, I Imagine, ex
cept an opportunity."
"Is it true that Miss Keinble makes
so much?"
"I'd like to trade Incomes with her,
tnnts all. Her manager, Kehen, wns
telling mc thnt she would clear fifty
thousand dollars this year."
Mrs. Kip was nghnst. Daphne was
electrified. She surprised Dunne with
another question: "You said Miss
Kemble wns married?"
"Yes, and has children, and loves
her husbnnd. But sho couldn't stand
Idleness. She's Just come buck to the
stage after several years of rusting In
a smnll city."
Daphne flred one moro question
point-blank: "Do you think I could
succeed on the stage?"
"Why not?" he answered. "You
have with your mother's permission
great beauty and magnetism, a de
lightful voice, and Intelligence. Why
shouldn't you succeed? You would
probnbly huve a peck of trouble get
ting started, but Do you know
nny munngers?"
"I never met one."
"Well, If you ever decide thnt you
wnnt to try It, let me know, nnd I can
probnbly force somebody to glvo you
a Job."
"I'll remember that," snld Dnphne,
durkly.
She snld nothing more whllo the
luncheon ran Its course.
The women got rid of Tom Dunno
gracefully Leila asked him to put
them In a taxlcab, ns they had still
much shopping to do. They rode to a
department store, und Lelln stnrted
nnothcr account. They rode buck to
the apartment. There they found n
dny letter from Duphne's father to her
mother.
"As you seo by pnpers big Cowper
Arm fnlled toduy for ten million dol
lars this hits us hard you better come
home not buy anything more situation
serious but hope for best don't worry
well love. WESLEY."
Mrs. Kip dropped Into a chnlr. The
shock wns so grent thut It shook first
from her a gronn of sympathy for her
husband.
"Your poor father! And he's worked
so hard and been so careful."
Bnyard came home Inte for dinner
nnd In a state of gravo excitement.
The grent Cowper wholesale establish
ment hnd fallen like a steeple, crush
ing many n house. Indirectly It had
rattled the windows of Bayard's firm;
had stopped the hanks from granting
nn Important lonn. Bnyard spent a
bad day downtown. The news of his
father's distress wns a heavy blow. But
ho tried to dispense encouragement to
the three women who could not qulto
realize what all tho excitement wns
ubout, or why tho dlsnstcr of a big
chnln of wholcsnlo stores would be of
uny particular lmportunce to them.
Bnyurd wns Just suylng: "I tell you,
Lellu honey, I was tho wlso boy when
I grubbed you, for now I'vo got you,
nnd I need you. Thank tho Lord I'm
not londed up with debt I'vo kept
clear of that."

Weekly Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANKLIN DUANE,( M. D.
It can be said broadly that roost human
ills begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose of the food you eat, trou
bles begin to crop out in various forms.
Indigestion and dyspepsia aro the common
est forms, but thin, impure blood, head
aches, backaches, pimples, blotches, dizzi
ness, belching, coated tongue, weakness,
poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colla
and bronchitis are almost as common.
There is but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
in good order This is easy to do if you
