o ' TITli ! OM ATT A DAILY BlUTBi. SUNDAY , NO V BACKER 2J , 1895. A Woman Intervenes. BY ROBERT BARR , of "Tlio Fnccnttd the Mask , " "In the Midst of Alarms , " Ktc. ( Copyright , ISM , by Hobcrt Uarr. ) CHAPTHIl XV. Jennie Drowsier stood with her back to the door , a sweet smile on tier face. "This Is my day for acting , Miss Long- worth. I think I illd the role of housemaid KO well that It deceived several members of tills family. I nm now giving air Imitation of yourself In your thrilling drama , "All at Bea. " Don't you think I do It most ad mirably ? " "Vcs , " said Rdllh , sitting down again. "I wonder y < M did not adopt the stage as n profession. " "I have often thought of doing to , but Journalism Is more exciting. " "Perhaps. Still It has Its disappointments , When I gave my thrilling' drama as you call It , on shipboard , I had my stage accessories arranged to better advantage than you have now. " "Do you mean the putting off of the boat ? " "No ; I mean that the electric button was under my hand It was Impossible for you to ring for help. Now , wlillo you hold the door , you cannot atop men from ringing , for the belt rope Is litre beside me. " "Yes , that Is a disadvantage' , I admit. Do you Intend to ring , then , and have mo turned otiU" "I don't think that will bo necessary. I Imagine you will go qulolly. " "You are a pretty clever plrl , Miss Long- worth , I wish I liked you , but I don't , so wo won't waste valuable tlmo deploring that fact. Have you no curiosity to hear what I was going to till you ? " "Not the slightest ; but there Is one thing I should like to know. " "Oh , Is there ? Well , that's human , nt any rate. What do you wish to know ? " "You came hero well recommended. How did you know I wanted a housemaid , and ivoro your testimonial * ) " Edith paused for a word , which Jennie promptly supplied. "Forged ? Oh , dear no. There Is no'iieces- slty for doing anything crlmlnil In this country , If you have the money. I didn't forge them I bought them. Didn't you wrlto to any of the good ladles who stood sponsor for me ? " "Yes , and received most flattering accounts of you. " "Certainly. That was part of the contract. Oh , you can do anything wlCh money In London ; It Is n most delightful town. Then , ns for knowing there Is a vacancy , tbat nlso was money. I bribed the other housemaid to leave. " "I see. And what object had you In all this ? " Jennie Drowsier laughed the same silvery laugh that had charmed William an hour or two before a laugh that sometimes haunted Wcntworth's memory In the city. She left her scntlncl-llkc position at the door and threw herself Into a chair. "Mlos Lqngworth , " ho said , "you are not cons.ilst.ent. You first pretend that you have no curiosity to hear what I have to say , then you ask mo exactly what I was going to > toll you. Of course , you are dying to know why I am her * ; you wouldn't bo a , woman If you weren't. Now , I'vechanged my mind , and I don't Intend to tell you. I will say , though , that my object la coming hero was , first , to find out for myself how servants are treated In this country. You see my sympathies are nil with the women who work , and not. with the women well , llko yoursslf , for Instance. " "Yes , I think you said that once before. And how do wo treat oun servants ? " "So far as my experience goes , very well indeed. " "It Is most gratifying to hear you say this. I was afraid wo might not have met your ap proval. And now , where shall I send you your month's money , Miss Browster ? " Jennlo Drewster leaned back In her chair , her eyes * all but closed , an angry light shoot ing from them that reminded Edith of her glance of hatred on board the steamship. A rich warm glow of color overspread her fair face , and her lips closed lightly. There was a moment's sllcnco between them , nnd then Jennlo's Indignation passed away as quickly as It camo. She laughed , with just a touch of restraint In her tone. "You can say an Insulting thing more calmly and sweetly than any one I over met before ; I envy you that. When I say any thing low down and mean , I say It In angsr , and my volco has a certain amount of acridity In It. 1 can't purr llko a cat nnd scratch at the same tlmo I wish I could. " "Is It nn Insult to offer you the money you have earned ? " "Yes , It Is , and you know It was when you upoko You don't understand mo a little bit. " "Is It necessary that I should ? " "I don't suppose you think it Is , " said Jen nlo , meditatively , resting her elbow on her Itnee , and her chin on her palm. "That Is where our point of view differs. I llko to know everything. It Interests me to learn what people think and talk about , and some how It dossn't seem to matter to me who the people arc , for I was even more Interested In ' THU SMOOTH , OILY GENTLEMAN. your butler's political opinion than I was In Lord Frederick lllngham's. They are both conservatives , but Lord VreddU Ecoms thaky In his vlewp , for you can argue him down In five minute ? , but the buller la as steadfast as a rock. I do admire thst butler. I hope you will break the news of my departure gently ( o him , for ho proposed to me , and ha has not yet had his answer. " "Thoro Is still time , " eald Edith , smiling In splto of herself. "Shall I ring for him ? " " 1'ltaso do not. I want to avoid a pain ful scene , became ho is so sure of himself and never dreams of a refusal. It Is such pity , too , for the butler Is my Ideal of what a member of the aristocracy should be. His dignity Is something awe Inrplrlng , whllo Lord Krcddle Is such a simple , good nalured , every day young fellow , that If I Imported him to the states 1 am cure no one would believe ho was a real lord. With tlw butlt-r It would be different , " addt-d Jen- tile , with a deep sigh. "It la too bad that you cannot exchange the declaration of the butler for ono from Lord Frederick. " ' 'Too bad ! " cried Jennie , looking with wide open eyes at the girl before her , "Why. bless you , I had a proposal from Lord Fred"- dla two weeks before I ever saw the butler. I 0:0 you don't believe a word I say , I'll Introduce you and tell him you don't be- lleyed he askfd me to bo Lady Freddie , It that'll the title. He'll look sheepish , but be * -on't deny It. You see , when I found I was Coins to stay In England for a time I wrote to the editor of the Argus la get mo a bunch cf letters vf lutroJuctloa and tend them over , as I wanted particularly to study the aristocracy. So he sent them , and , I assure you , I found It much more difficult to get Into your servants' hall than I did Into the halls of the nobility ; besides , It costs less to mix with the upper ten. " Edith sat In silence , looking with amazed Interest at the young woman , who talked to rapidly that thcro was romotlmes a dim- cully In following what slio said. "No , Lord Freddie was not half so conde scending as the butler , neither was his Inn- guago eo well chosen ; but then , Frcddlo Is very young. I am exceedingly disappointed with the aristocracy. They arc not nearly so haughty as I Imagined them to be. Dut what astonishes me In this country Is the way you women spoil the men. You arc much too good to them. You pet them and fawn on them , and naturally they get con ceited. It Is such a pity , too , for they are nlco fellows , most of them. It Is the same everywhere I've been servants' hall and nil. Why , when you meet n young couple , of what you are pleased to call the lower claracs , walking In the park , the- man hangs down hla head as ho slouches along , but the girl looks defiantly at you , ns much as to say , Tvo got him. llless him ! What have you to say about It ? While the man seems lo In ashamed of himself , nnd evidently feels that he's been had. Now , n man should be tnailo to understand that you're doing him "I'm not going to wrlto tip your household nftcr all. " ' When Iho new offices of the Canadian Mica Mining company , limited , were com pl ltd , Kenyon took charge of them , HP wna somewhat overpowered by their grandeur and he thought that unnecessary expense hid been Incurred In the fittings , but AS they were now In for It , he Bald nothing , nllhnugt a shiver of fear ran over him when ho thought of the powlblo failure of the scheme leaving the > rapidly accumulating debt liang Ing over htm. He occupied n desk In one o the back rooms , whllo a clerk In the frffrt office gave away prospcctusen lo all who called , and furnished useful knowledge to an Inquiring public. Most of Kenyan's callers were newspaper cinvassers who wanted nd vertlsements , which John at that momen wait unable to supply. An oily young man whose cast of countenance Indicated Hint ho belonged to a shrewd , thrifty and money making race , said he WAS commissioned by him"I'm Financial Flld to get particulars abou the mine , and this Information Kenyan readily supplied , feeling glad tbat nd ndver tlscment was asked for. Longworth was seldom nt the new offices Ho was busy seeing acquaintances who wouli take slock In the mining company. He con stantly cautioned his partners against being In too much of a hurry , nnd ho nmnzet Wenlworth by Informing him that he hac overcome the objections nnd secured the co operation of Melville , who had reported so unfavorably about the mineral , thus showing that nnylhlng could bo accomplished If yet took your time over It. A Mr. King , nlso connected wllh th * china works , had prom ised his assistance. The first meeting of proposed shareholders wan set for Monday afternoon , and Long- worth expressed his belief that the forming of the company would be accomplished before fore- the week was out. Ono day when Kenyon entered the office the JENNIE BREWSTER STOOD WITH HER BACK TO THE DOOR. a great favor when you give him a civil word. That's the propr state of mind to keep a man In , and then you can do what you llko with him. I generally make him propose , vo as to get It over before any real liarm'n done , and to give an artistic finish to thu episode. After that you can be real good friends , and have a Jolly time. That's what I did with Lord Freddle. , We all went up the river one day two young men friends of Freddie's and two nice girls , n chaperon , and myself. Would you believe tbat those two girls proposed to tow us up stream , and the young men actually allowed them to do so. I was steering , and It made me so angry I couldn't speak. Lord Freddie seemed lo feel that It was necessary to keep up a conver sation , but when I didn't reply to him , he calmly lit his plpo and began to smoke. The olher two reclined with their hals , over Ihelr eyes , and , I think , went to sleep. Mean while the two nice girls trudged along the bank together , pulling the rope. I would have sunk the boat If I could , but I didn't know how. Well , when wo got to the place where we were lo have lea , Ihe young men said Ib was Jolly nice of Ihe girls lo tow them so far ; then they went and sprawled under some trees , leaving the complacent girls to get < ea ready. I couldn't stand It any longer. I went up to the three sprawlers under the tree , and , bidding them goodby , I started down the towpatb. Lord Freddie sprang up and came running after mo , asking where I was going. I told him I was going to walk back to London. Ho laughed and said I couldn't ; It was fifty miles away. But when be paw I was In earnest , he became - came anxious to know what the matter was , "I told him I thought I had come out with thrcs gentlemen , but , finding I was mis taken , I was going back. Ho got very red , and then I Just gave him my opinion of him and his friends , coming out with three girls and paying no more attention to them than If Ihey were three dolls. That settled things. Freddie apologized , and he said he would go back and shake the brutes up a bit , which , I suppose , he did , for the brute ? were as nlcs as could be lo us after that. When Freddie and I were towing the boat back he proposed , and I laughed at him. After a while ho began to laugh , too. and so wo had a splendid time. What a lovely little river the Thames Is , Isn't It ? A nice , clean , little pocket river. I would llko to buy II , and put It In our back yard In America , Just to sit and look at. Now , here am I , chattering away as If I were paid for talking Instead of writing. Why do you look at ma so ? Don't you believe what I tell you ? " "Yes , I believe all you pay. What I can't understand In , why a bright girl llko you should enter a houBo nnd well do what you have done hero , for Instance. " "Why shouldn't I ? I am after accurate In formation. I get It In my own way. Your writers here tell how the r ° ° r live , and that sort of thing , Then enter the houses of the poor quite unbluehlngly , and print their Im pressions of the poverty-stricken homes. Now , why should the rich man be exempt from a similar Investigation ? " "In either case It Is the work of a spy. " "Yes , but a spy Is not a dishonorable per- pan ; at least he need not be. I saw a monument ment In Westminster Abbey to a man who was hanged as a spy. A spy must be brave ; he must have nerve , caution and resource. He sometimes does more for bis country than a whole Kglmonl. Ob , there are worse per sons than pplfs In the world. " "I suppose ( here are , still " "Yes , I know. It Is easy for persons with plenty of money to moralize on the short comings of others , I'll tell you a secret , I'm writing a book , and If It's a BUCCCW , thin goodby lo Journalism. I don't like the spy business myself any too well ; I'm afraid Hnglaud Is contaminating me , and If I blayed herea few years I might degenerate so far as to think your newspapers Interesting , By the way , do you know Mr. Wenlworth'it ad dress ? " Edllh hesitated a moment , and at last an. swercd : "Yes , I do. " "Will you give It to me ? I think I ought to wrllo him a nole of apology for all the anxiety I caused him on board ship. You may not bllevo It , but I Imvo actually had Borne twinges of conscience over tbat episode , I suppose that's why I partially forgive you for stopping the cablegram. " CHAPTER XVI. Edith Loneworth wa astonished at her- salt for giving tlio address to the young womin , but she gav It , and the Lady Slavey dtpirtcd In p ac * , saying by way of farewell ; clerk said to him : "That young gentleman has been here twlco to see you. He said it was very Im portant , sir. " "What young gentleman ? " "The gentleman here Is his card who be longs to the Financial Field , sir. " "Did ho leave any message ? " "Yes , sir ; he said he would call agali > at 3 o'clock. " "Very good , " said Kenyon , and he began compiling the address to the proposed sub scribers. At 3 o'clock Iho smooth , oily gentleman from the Financial Field put In nn appear ance. "Ah , Mr. Kenyon , " he said , "I am glad to meet you. I called In twice , but had not the good fortune to find you In. Can I see you In private for a moment ? " "Certainly , " answered Kenyon. "Come Into the directors' room , " and Into the di rectors' room they went , Kenyon closing the door behind them. "Now , " said the representallve of the Financial Field , "I have brought you a proof of the editorial which we propose using , and which I am desired by the proprietor to show you , so that It may be free , If possible , from any error. We are very anxious to have things correct In the Financial Field , " and with this he handed to John a long slip of white paper with a column of printed matter upon It. The article was headed , "The Canadian Mica Mining Company , Limited. " It went on to show nhat the mine had been , what it had done , and what chances there were for Investors getting a good return for their money by buying the shares. John read It through carefully. "That Is a very handsome article , " he said , "and It is without an error , to far as I can see. " "I am glad you think so , " replied the young gentleman , folding up the proof and putting It in his Inside pocket. "Now , as I said before , although I am not the advertising canvasser of the Financial Field , I thought I would sec you with reference to an advertise ment for the paper. " "Well , you see , we have not had a meeting of the proposed stockholders yet and we are not In a position to give any advertisements , about the mine , I have no doubt advertise ments will bo given , and , of course , your paper will be remembered among the rest. " "All , " said the yo'ung man , "that is hardly satlfcfactory to us. We have a vacant half page for Monday the very best position In the paper which the proprietor thought you wculd llko to secure. " "As I said a moment' ngo , we are not In n position ( o secure It. It < premature to talk of advertising at the present stale of affairs , " "I think , you Unow , It will be to your In terest lo tuke the half page. The price Is 300 , and besides that amount we should like to have some shares In the company. " "Do you mean 300 for one Insertion of the advertisement ? " "Yes , that Is what I mean. " "Doesn't that strike you as being a trifle exorbitant ? Your paper has a comparatively limited circulation , and Ihey do not ask us anything like that price even In the large dallies , " "All , my dear sir , the largo dallies are quite different. They have u tremendous circulation , it Is true , but it Is not the kind of circulation wo have. No other paper circulates so largely among Investors as1 the Financial Field. It U read by exactly the class of people you desire to reach , and I may say that , cxcc-pt through the Field , you can not get at some of the best men In the city. " "Well , admitting all tbat , u > I have said once or twice , we ore not yet In a position lo give an advertisement. " "Then I am very sorry to ray that we can not on Monday publish the Article I have shown you. " "Very well , I cannot help It , You are not compelled lo print It unltbg you wish. I am not euro , cither , that publishing the article on Monday would do us any good , It would be premature , as I say. We are not yet ready to court publicity until wo have our Qrt meeting of proposed stockholder * . " " \Vhen Is your firm meeting of stock holders ? " "On Monday at 3 o'clock. " "Very well , we could put that announce ment In another column , and I am sure you wculd find tbe attrudsuca t your meeting would be very largnlj and Kubtlnntlnlly In- cr n ecl. " "ro.dtbly , but I ! decline to do anything till nflcr the moctlnR. " "I think you wortld find It would pay you ex tremely well to Uke that Jmlf pnge. " "I nm not qucMlcnlng the fact at nil I am merely naylnR what I have ald to every ono else , that we are not ready to consider ml- vcrllslnK. " "I am sorry we cannot como to an arrange ment , Mr. Kenyon * very sorry , Indeed , " and I raying thin he took-another proof sheet out of j his pocket , which he handed to Kenyan , "If we cannot comn to nn undcrstnndlng , Ihe manager has determined to print this , Insteml of the nrllclo -showed t you. Would you kindly glance over It , bcciuso we should like to have It as correct as possible. " Kenyon opened his eyes and unfolded the paper. The heading wns the same , but ho had rend only n wntonce or two when lie found that the Mien mine was one of th greatest swindles ever attempted on poor , old Innocent , financial London ! "Da you mean to sny , " cried John , lookln up nt him with his anger kindling , "that It do not bribe you to the extent of 300 , besid ? giving you an unknown quantity of stock , yo will publish thli libel ? " "I do not say It Is n libel , " said the young man , smoothly ; "that would bo n matter fo the courts to decide. You might sue u for libel If you thought we had treated yet badly. I may say that hai been tried severa times , but with Indifferent success. " "Hut do you mean to tell mo that you In tend to publish this article If I do not pay you the 300 ? " "Yes ; putting It crudely , that Is exactly what I do mean. " Kenyon rose In his wrath and flung open the door. " 1 must nt-k you lo leave this place , am leave it at once. If you ever put In an np pearance here again while'I nm In the ofllc I will call a policeman nnd have you ar rested. " "My dear sir , " expostulated tlio other suavely , "it Is merely a mailer of business If you nnd It Impossible to deal with us there Is no harm done. If our paper hai nol Influence , wo cnnnol possibly Injure you That , of course , la entirely for you lo Judge If nny time between now and Sunday nigh you conclude to act otherwise , a wire to our offlce will hold things over until we have have had an opportunity of coming to an ar rangement with you. If not , this atflclo wll bo published on Monday morning. I wish you n very good afternoon , sir. " John said nothing , but watched his visitor out on the pavement , and then relumed to the making of his report. On Monday morning as ho came In by train , his eye caught a flaming poster on one of the bill boards at the stalion. U was headed Financial Field , and the next line , In heavy black letter ? , was "Tho Mica Mining Swindle. " Kenyon called a newsboy to him nnd bought a copy of the paper. There , In leaded type , was the article before him. It seemed , somehow , much moro Important on ths printed page , than it hid looked in the proof. As he read It ho nollced nn nlr of truth ful sincerity about the article that had es caped him during the brief glance he had given It on Friday. It went on to say that the Austrian Mining company had sunk a good deal of money In the mlns , and that It had never paid a penny of dividends that they merely kept on. the- mine at a constant loss to themselves In the hope1 of being able to swindle same- confiding Investors but that even Ihclr designs were as nothing compared to the barefaced attempt at swindling con templated by John Kenyon. He caught his brealh as ho saw his own name In print. It was a shock for whlcti hs- was not prepared , as he had not noticed It In the proof. Then ho read on. It ssemcd that this man , Ken- yon , had secured the mine at something- like 10.000 , and was frying to shove It oft on the unfortunate British public nt the enormous Increase of 200,000 ; but this nefarious at tempt would doubtless be frustratad so long as there were papers of the Integrity of the Financial Field that took the risk and ex pense of making such an exposure as was hero sH forth. The article possessed a singular fascina tion for Kenyon. He read and re-read It In a dazed way , as If the statement referred to some other person , and he could not help feeling sorry for that person. Ho still hadvthe paper1 In his hand as be walked up the strtet. . and he felt numbed and dazed , as If.'t-omc-ono had struck him a blow. He was nearly run over In crossing oho of the thoroughfares , and heard an out burst of profanity directed at him from a cab driver and a man on a bus ; but he heeded them not , walking through the crowd llko one under a spell. He passed the door of his own gorgeous office nnd walked a considerable distance up the street before ho realizes what he had done. Then he turnsd back again , and , Just at the doorstep , pauusd with a pang In his heart : "I wonder If Edith Longworth will read that article , " he said to himself.

In a paper read before the trl-slate dental neetlng held recently In Detroit , Mich , , a Chicago dentist Illustraled by plaster casls ils success In correcting certain deformities f the face , or remodeling the natural eaturos by force appliances attached to tha "I believe the time la not far dlulant. " he aid. "when the skillful operalor In dental rthopedla will be able to esthotlcally correct nd beautify many common types of facial inperfecllon which wo ordinarily recognize ' ' 'unallracllve and ml denominate as 'plain , ; ven 'ugly. ' "This will ba accomplished by force ap. llances attached to the teeth nnd worn for few months during youth , or at a time when the Immaturity of Iho bones permits liem to yield most readily to the proper orce , the teeth In Ihcio Initaiicea eubuwvlng he purpose of convenient places for attaching 10 appliances , and. through this medium , of IrccliiiB and applying the force lo the bones ver that portion of the face which requires lovomcnt. " In lila first experiment , relates the Now 'ork Herald , the upper dental arch of a oung woman was decidedly small and re- radsd. while the lower was large and prom- nent , with the peculiar open occlusion char- cterletlc of a mouth breathc-r. This gave to be face a long , narrow nut ] d cia&dly angular appearance. The lower lip protruded with an entire obliteration of Its usual graceful curve , whllo the upper lip and middle fc.iturca of Iho face wcro equally depressed. The lower part of the nose being drawn back by Us muscular attachments to the deprenscd hone , assumed n thin and pinched appearance. Within seven months from the commence , ment of trcalment tills was corrected and today she in quite handEomc , In another Instance the roota of the anterior teeth , at the beginning of Iho operallon , were very small. The crowns of the Incisors , being Inclined Inward , gave to tlio face a bulged expression nlong the superior portion of the upper Up , affecting tlio iiliapo of tUo nose. The defect was entirely remedied. A young man's teeth were large and strong and jaws and bones proportionately large and rigid. The facial promlmnce or bulging of the face In the region of the wings of Die nose was pronounced and due largely to tlio anterior position of Ihe reels of Hie cuspids , Tlio power of tlio apparatus was conllnucd for a year and the rfsiilt was successful. Two experiments were mada lo altempt a forward movement of the roots of the su perior Incisors that the surrounding proem and Immediately adjoining bone did not move bodily forward with tha teeth. "In both of ttieso cases , " eayn the dentist , "fts soon as there was an appreciable movement It was accompanied by a decided prominence over each root , showing that the roota bad moved by the immediate absorption of the alveoli ftgd tht begging outward ol thJ anterior alveolar plate. In ono Instance , before iny attention was called to It , I could dlftlnollv' see the hape and poslilon of the aplres of some of the reels , which looked OH if ( hay were Just ready to burst through the gum. Whonevcr this condition wemed to endanger the possibilities of incccKg the forca was re. dttced , but not sunlclent to allow the roots to return. Then I would wait for the rldgt-s lo be evened up by nature building In new tissue , when fores would bo again applied for a little further movement. "The necessity of these Interruptions In the progrcw of the movement has required for theno operations a much longer time than would otherwise have been necessary , and , though neither is complete , the present re- nulls are quite tathfictory as regards Iho possibility of bringing about Iho desired position of the teeth , "Coiirfdered , however , from tha standpoint of esthetic facial development , they can never b an successful as they would hive been bad I be n able lo commatii ) a move ment of a greater area of the superior maxil lary bones , " In a Jewess , 13 years old , the superior maxilla was to small and retracted that 111 * upper teeth flared outward to meet the lowers. Treatment consisted In expanding the den tal arch forward and laterally , and so apply. Ing the force that there was a much greater movement of Iho roots than the crowns of Ihe teeth , This resulted In a gentral en largement of the maxillary procem , with t much fulUr contour to the mlddl * feature * of the ( ace , * vcn to straightening lue nctf
