and her- ene - burning desire la to keep
the world from seeing how she suffers.
There Is one remedy for the preach of
promlne suit scandal that would put an
effectual quietus on it, and that is to
try such cases before women Juries.
There would probably never be another
such case, for no woman would be willing
to have twelve other women figure out
the damagea to her Injured heart If she
did. she wouldn't get enough money to
psy her car fare home.
,Thle would not be bocsuse women are

story about a credulous creature of ma

women could tell a great deal more about
why a man proposed than he could.
. Also no woman Jury would lay much
stress on the heart Injuries that can be
cured by a poultice of the long green.
Such hurts to the heart are not real
breaks, they are only superficial cracks.
"When it deala with women an Amer
ican Jury Is not Justice. It Is gallantry
gone to seed. A pretty woman and ugly
women have the discretion not to sue the
men who don't want to marry them has
only to shed a few pearly tears In a lace
handkerchief, and twelve sympathetic
men aasesa damages on the man in the
caae. This) pity for beauty in distress
does honor to the Jury's heart, but not
Its head. Moreover, It Is not Justice, for
a woman capable of bringing a breach
of promise suit is perfectly able to take
care of herself In love affairs or any
business deal.
The breach of promise suit nuisance
should be abated. It puts the weapon of
the blackmailer in the handa of every
unprincipled woman. And It shames every
delicate-minded woman by dragging the
holy things of the soul through the mire.

Q-"WTiat is polarised Ilrhtr-Arsen
Yeretzlan.
A. To answer this question as It ahould
be would occupy one page of Tho Bee,
since it Is one of the most Intricate
problems In the entire range of science.
I have often experimented with the
gorgeous displays of polarised light colors
before clasaes; but explanation is. In
deed, difficult and complex. Tha short
est definition Is vibration of waves of
light on one plane. Dull red waves are
of such length' that , are Included In
a train one Inch long and dim violet
63,000 to tha Inch. Tie a rope to a wall at
ene end and. hold the other la the hand;
stand from five to ten feet away and
shake the rope violently. Then crude
waves' will appear, tu travel In the
rope from- hand to wall. Move the hand
rapidly In every possible direction be
tween horizontal aiuf perpendicular, and
the .waves will Imitate the motions of the
hand, ' But suddenly move the hand en
tirely in one plane, the waves will all
be In one plane. They are said to - be
polarized.
Polarized light present strange prop
erties In comparison with natural white
light in from tha sun. Iceland spar and
tourmaline have marked polarisation
powers. 8 par doubly refracts incident
light and produces two Images. The
atoms or molecules within produoe this
remarkable effect. A number of other
crystals have this property. Ittineral
salts appear In gorgeous colors In polar
ised light, especially If In the field of
view of a microscope. Chlorate of potas
sium la an example, giving colors of
great beauty, and more If rotated In the
polarized radiation. Light ran bs polar
ized by reflection from polished surface
nearly as well as by refraction In pars
ing through transparent crystals. Thus,
I have a double reflection polariscope up
here to attach-to tho telescope In view
lng the sua. It makes the light less bril
liant than the original and not Injurious
to the eyes. Nleol prism of Iceland spar
are used as analysers to detect polar

kidnaps the beautiful 3-year-old baby
girl and brings her up In a par ad mo
where she sees no man, but thinks she
la taught by angels who Instruct her for
her mission to reform the world. At the
sue of 1H she is suddenly thrust Into the
world where agunta or the Interests are
ready to pretend to find her.
The one to teel the loss of the little
Amesbury girl most, atter she bad been
spirited away by the Interests, was
Tommy Barclay.
Fifteen years later Tommy goes to the
Adirondack". The Interests are responsi
ble for the trip. By accident he is the first
to meet the little Ameabury girl, as she
comes forth from her paradise as Celestiu
the girl from heaven. Neither Tommy nor
Celestia recosnlzes each other. Tommy
flnda it an easy matter to rescue Celestia
from Prof. Stllllter and they hide in
the mountains; later they are pursued
by BUUlter and escape to an island where
they spend the night.
That night, Stllllter. following his In
dian guide, reaches the Island, found
Celeatia and Tommy, but did not disturb
them In the morning Tommy goes for a
swim. During his absence Btlllller at
tempts to steal Celestia. who runs to
Tommv for help, followed by Stllllter.
The latter st once realizes Tommy's pre
dicament, lie takes advantage of it by
taking not only Celestla's, but Tommy's
clothes. Htllllter reaches Four Corners
with Celestia 1uat In time to catoh an
express for New York, there he places
Celestia In Bellevue hospital, where her
ssnlty is proven by the authorities.
Tommy reaches Bellevue Just before Btil
Uter's departure.
Tommy's first aim was to get Celestia
away from Bt'.lllter. After they leave
Bellevue Tommy la unsble to get any
hotel to take Celestia In owing to her
costume. Hut later he persuades his
lather to keep her. When he goes out
to the taxi he finds her gone. She falls
Into the hands of white slavers, but
escapes and goes to live with a poor fam
ily by the name of Douglas. When their
son Freddie returns home he finds right
In his own house, Celestia. the girl for
which the underworld has offered a re
ward that he hoped to get.
Celestia secures work In a largo gar
ment factory, where a great many girls
are employed. Here she shows her pe
culiar power, and makes friends with sll
her girl companions, iiy her talks to the
girls she Is able to calm a threatened
atrike, and the "boss" overhearing her Is
moved to grant the relief the girls wished,
and also to right a greet wrong he had
done one of them. Just at this point the
factory catches on fire, find the work
room is soon a biasing furnace. Celestia
refuses to escape with the other girls,
and Tommy Barclay rushes In and car
ries her out, wrapped In a big roll of
cloth.
. BEVEXTII EPISODE.
"But you don't, and you don'l believe
In her crusade. What Is her Idea the
usual thing? To destroy all existing
conditions, lump the tntney, divide up,
ano begin all over again?"
"No," said Tommy, laughing. "That's
what you think my Idea is. Celestia
Isn't for destroying large fortunes (In
deed some of them might become even
more swollen if her doctrines became
law). She believes that there is enough
aeath In the country to make all the In
habitants clean and comfortable if we
oould do away with tha waste of money;
if In other words the United States were
run to make money Instead of to spend
It. Passible, Isn't it? And absurd."
"Why absurd? I have, no quarrel with
her theory."
"Of course not. You'd be one who would
Lave to profit by It willy nllly."
"The absurd part la to think that the
great American people can be made to
execute so drastlo a change In their laws
with the politicians of all parties cry

tapped his knee with an Ivory letter
opener. Then .he tu:-ned onro more to
Tommy and asked him a question.
"Where do you com Jn?"
"I'm very fond of her." said Tommy,
simply.
"Hum!"
"Perhaps I should put It more
strongly."
"Do you mean that you are paying her
serious attention?"
"In so far as she will receive them."
"I'm very sorry," said Barclay.
"I'm sorry that you are sorry."
"If at your age," said Barclay, "I had
found myself seriously In love with a
girl In her station of life I should have
had pity on her."
"You haven't understood. I wish iu
marry her."
"I understood perfectly. But your
friends are not going to recognize her
as tholr equal. You can never feel upon
terms of real equality with her associ
ates." "We should have each other."
Barclay laughed harshly.
"Have you any Idea how long the line
of the average young couple is sufficient
to Itself? Hate, Jealousy, greed those
are enduring passions, but love has al
most as much constitution as an orchid."
"There are exceptions."
"You have no right to try to prove that
at the sxpenaa of someone you think you
love, or at the expense of someone who
for many years has been endurlngly fond
of you."
He smiled very kindly.
"Yourself, sir!"
"Myself. Better go away, Tommy. It
will hurt, but not for long. Why not
take a few friends for a cruise. I'll send
you round the world. If you like. You
can hobnob with maharajas and Malay
potentates, catch mahaeer, shoot tigers,
race elephants"
"Don't you think I'm old enough to
know my own mind?"
"How about her career? She seems to
be doing good In the world. Few are.
You don't want to spoil her life."
"Oh, It's no use arguing," said Tommy,
rising, "I must marry her if she will
have me. Even If I thought It wrong
and unfair, I am no longer a free agent."
Barclay shook Ms head.
"How will you support her?"
"Why-"
Barclay was still smiling.
"You've had a great deal of money to
spend. What have you saved?"
"I'm not a mouse," aald Tommy, "and
you are not a cat . You are cutting me
off, because you honestly think It will
be for my good. Well, Ood knows I
don't know how to make a living, but I
can try."
"Whenever you change your mind
about Celestia, or give me a definite
j promise that you will not try to marry
!her, I shall be mora than alad to put
you once more upon your old footing." -
"Well," said Tommy, "we've had a
good many differences of opinion, but
we've never quarreled, have we?"
He held out his hand.
"My hat off," aald Barclay, "to the
beat sportsman I have ever known."
But In his heart ha thought that Tommy
would very soon tire of earning a living,
and his word went forth to the effect
that he would not look with approval
on any Institution which should offer
salaried employment to Thomas Steele.
And from one Institution to snother this
word spread like rumor.
But Tommy did not at once look for
employment. Of course that, considering
how difficult It Is to find employment,
would have been the sensible thing to do.

Two Pictures of
Copyright, 191fi, Star Company.
By ELLA WHEELER WILOO.T.
There haa been a beautiful picture
shown to the eye at one of the New
York theaters. It is a charity benefit
for little homeless children. The curtain
went u d and re
vealed three 1 ex
quisite young girls
in- the morning of
life, dressed In
clasalc flowing
robes of white,
seated . at three
golden harps. The
stage setting back
of them repre
sented a fair road,
winding up a ma
jestic mountain
side. While the
eye was dazzled
and delighted with
the radiant picture
the ear was next ,
mm
enchanted with the
heavenly strains of the "Angel's Seren
ade." played by the three young glrla on
the three harps, aitompenled by one of
them, who sang the air in a voice of
rare sweetness.
The memory of this beautiful picture
occupied the mind of the writer of this
articlo when a friend said, "Come with
m to the hospilal. I want you to sea
some nf the people In whom I am in
terested there." The first people to lie
seen were those In the nervous ward,
men and women who, from various
ca.iaes. were on the point of nervous
prostration or more sorlous malady, and
who had been sent by their friends or
relatives to be studied by the physicians
In charge. After their cases were de
cided upon they would be sent away to
other Institutions for further treatment.
A brief time In these wards under the
direction of the leading physician Is con
vincing proof of the vast need In the
land of further development along eugtn
leal lines. A large percentage of the
patients who come Into these wards for
examination can trace their troubles
bark to bad Inheritance. The sins of the
fathers and the mothers' have developed
paresis. Insanity and epilepsy In the chil
dren.' Alcoholism and sexual immoral
ity, nicotine and drugs, all these have
helped produce the wretched crop of
human belnga who are found In the
neurotic wards of our institutions.
After visiting these wsrds the physlclun
said. "Now do you want to see the
'dope' victims? They rmiy Interest you "
So we proceeded to the drug ward. And
what a eight we beheld' More than half
a hundred young men, all undor the e

Youth Contrasted
many cots in the ward and each rot con
tained a victim suffering from the first
stages of this affliction, unable to alt up
and In tho greater part of the cases in
a stupor. Others, attired In dressing
gowns, weie wandering about the room,
patiently passing away the time until
they were pronounced cured. - One ung
man dressed In a trim business suit, quite
normal in appearance, was about to take
his departure that afternoon. The doc.
tor questioned him for the benefit of the
visitors regarding his case. "How long
did you use the drug?" he asked, and
"What caused you to begin the habit?"
"It was something over s year ago,'' the
man replied. "I was a professional In
the world of sports. A man told me I
would have rvery much more speed and
skill If I took heroin, so I took it and for
a little time what the man said seemed
to be true. Then I began to go down,
until 1 landed here. Now, thank God, I
am cured or the habit and shall never
go back to It."
The other men In the room were the
color of clny, devoid of all animation and
virility of expression. One by oi.e Undue-tor
questioned them, and one by one
they all responded, "We began the use
o( the drug because we were tcld it
would make us feel better, brace ua up
and give ua more 'go.' " At least a dozen
declared they hd acquired the habit In
the pool room. Not one claimed tnat he
had taken the drug lo relieve any phys
ical ache or ailment.
When we realize that tills Is ti.t one
Institution of hundreds in Greater New
York, where similar congregations of un
fortunate drug victims can be seen, wc
must awaken to the concclounness of the
great menace for the race which lies in
the drug liat.lt. It is well to have laws,
stringent and severe, for the pnnlshment
of all the monsters . who sell drugs to
their fellow beings, or who Induce them
to begin the habit; but that Is only deal
ing with the habit after It Is acquired.
More important than this la the awaken
ing of the minds of parents, teachers and
friends to the danger whl"h threatens the
youth of tha land. Youths and girls aie
frequently in the grasp of this octopus,
while the parents are wholly unuonsclous
of the situation In fact, unconscious that
such a drug as herein exists in the world.
Parents must awaken and learn the
risnger which lurks at their threshold.
I They must talk to their young children
Ion these subjects and gie them the pro-
teetlon of knowledge.
War we know Is a (icat evil and
threatens the destruction of hundreds of
thousands while It rages in any land
But war Is only periodical. The dru;
habit is ever with us and its nienace to
the country is today greater than that of
war. lt us awaken and protect our
oung from a ImMt which renders

A Fictionless
Fable
Being; About the Ideal
Marriage
Hr ANN LISLE.
There were once two brothers who had
reached manhood s eatate and felt It was
time to take unto themselves wives. One
had theories about marriage and the other
was In love with a woman.
Said the theorist: "Opposltes attract. 1
being n tall, slender blond, shall marry a
short, plump brunette. That will be well
from the enprenlc point of view, and be
sides, we will afford a pleasing contrast
lo the eye of the beholder. I am fond of
art. mtiMc and home life, so I shall wed
woman who likes outdoor sports, books
and travel. That will give ua a wide
field of Interests. I am phlegmatic and
Indifferent, ao I shall marry a woman
a ho la excitable and high etrung. Then
we will stlmulste each other."
Said the lover: "I love my sweetheart
partly because she Is dear to me and
partly because the same things are dear
to each of us. We enjoy each other's
pet enjoyments. We are outwardly a bit
alike, too 1 nave heard people Bay we
look almost as if we might be brother
and rlster but we are more than a 'bit'
alike In tho mental traits. We like the
samo people. I like a great many of the
characteristics In her I hsvs always ad
mired In myself. Phe Is Just enough
shorter than I to reach my heart, and
she Is Just enough plumper to be femi
ninely alluring. We don't clash on
opinions and we don't offer enough phys
ical contrast to attract the attention ef
others but w do attract each other."
So the theorist married his opposite and
the lover married his counterpart.
And thla la what happened: Ths op
posltes sttracted each other but not
for long! The little brunette came to
realize that her tall, thin blonde husband
made her look dark and chunky by con
trast, and she hated to be seen out with
him. He, on the other hand, found that
a volume of poetry could not offer him
solace for the concerts to which his wife
would not accompany him. And a wife
on the golf links Is not worth two on the
hearth rug. Nor doea ability to row a
boat presuppose a talent for steering the
mutrlmnnlal craft. And a tall, thin hus
band tines not feel the same urge to take
cross-country walks with his "tub of a
wife" that a fiance knows about romantio
strolling with his dear little "pleasingly
plump" sweetheart.
So tho theorist and his wife went their
various ways he with long, lackadaisical
strides roamed after a popular singer who
could manage a chafing dish very well.
And she, with perky nervousness, betook
herself to a divorce court. For. In the
end, opposltes attract their likes!
And the lover and his wife went plod
ding along. She loved his sleek dark
hair, and he adored the wave In her
dusky tresses. And she thought his
ruddy complexion ths perfection of
brunette splendor while hs loved the
clear olive of her cheeks. She oould Just
reach his heart, so he stooped down often
to make It easier for her. They were
ao alike that they understood each other
admirably.
And yet being two separata humans,
they knew the Impenetrable solitude that
every one has to suffer. Only It was
easy to bridge differences with under
standing. If he grew tired of Schopen
hauer and wanted to read Oulda, she
could understand that, for did not she
often weary of grand opera scores and
long to hear oniy fox-trots.
And every one aald. "Isn't that a nice
couple! How like each other they grow!"'
And the moral of that la that If you
are a little swallow breasting the air,

Louisville, Ky. " I think if morsgnf
ferinp; women would take Lydia E.
i ' ZZZ "TnPinkham'g Vegeta
ble Compound they
would enjoy better
health. I suffered.
from a female trou
ble, and the doctors
decided I had a
tumorous growth
and would have to
be operated upon,
but I refused as I da
not believe in opera
tions. I had fainting spells, bloated.
and could hardly stand the pain in my
left side. My husband insisted that I
try Lydia . Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and I am so thankful I did,
for I am now a well woman. I sleep
better, do all my housework and take
long walks. I never fail to praise Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for
my good health." Mrs. J. M. Resch,'
1900 West Broadway, Louisville, Ky.
Since we guarantee that all testimo
nials which we publish are genuine, is it
not fair to suppose that if Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has tha
virtue to help these women it will help
any other woman who is suffering in a
like manner?
If you are ill do not drsg along until
an operation is necessary, but at once
take Lydia E. Pink ham, 'g Vegetable
Compound. , . .
Write to Lydia E. Pink ham
Medicine Co., (confidential) Lynn,
Mass. Your letter wil be opened,

and Held iu strict confidence.
