BED CLOUD, NEBRASKA, CHIEF k4k.k$ikAkmkm,k&c.k$lLMkk&Lk&k ONLY A LOVER'S WAY By JAMES H. HULL. In the spring of tho year the path called "Lover's Way" led through a tangle of budding wild rose bushes and trailing woodbine. In October the woodblno was still there, a glory of red and gold, and the sumach crowd ed Its luxuriant foliage and rich ma hogany tlntod blooms until there was scarcely room for lovers to walk. Dorothy Penfleld hurried through the Way one autumn day with eyes that would not see the beauty of the tinted foliage on elthor side. There was a acared look In her face and her little hand clonched a letter tightly. Out of tho Way was tho broad drive that led up to the big mansion on he till!. Old Cato, driving the carrlago horses for exercise, stared after his young mlstross with rolling eyes. "Miss Dolly done got a scare, I reckon!" he muttered clucking to tho lazy sorrels. "Her om de greatcs young lady fer gettln' scatrt at little er nothln'." Dut Dorothy thought she had ex ccllont reason to be disturbed this afternoon. She hurried Into tho toUBO and went straight to the library where there was a hickory fire on tho wide hearth. Curled In her fnvorlto chair before tho flro was her dearest friend. Lisa Mason. "Dearl" cried Lisa' In her pretty gushing way. "I've been waiting an age for you." Dorothy frowned. "I came right back, Lisa. I haven't been gone fif teen minutes." Lisa was quite unabashed. "Well, I've been waiting all of five minutes, anyway." Dorothy tossed aside her red felt hat and curled herself on the hearth rug with her round white chin cupped In one pink palm. Suddenly as if Just ware of tho letter she carried, she tossed It Into the fire and resumed her former position. ' Lisa gazed curiously at the letter nd to Dorothy's keen disgust the flames licked the envelope open and spread 'the sheets wide for anyone to read. Dorothy wished sho had not 'possessed such a splashing handwrit ing. Certain words of the burning missive stood out strongly before they turned black and shrlreled away. "Dearest Phil." "The day has been o long " "You can read your an swer ." "Ever yours, Dolly." There we're many sentences dozens of them in between the first and the last that no one could read except the hungry flames, for there were several sheets of paper thickly covered with the loving words that had dripped from Dorothy's hasty pen. Lisa Mason read the words shame lessly and then turned round eyes upon her friend. Dorothy's head was tent In deep dejection. "Well, Dolly girl," said Lisa briskly, slipping down beside her friend, "I re ceived your note asking me to come over and consult about the wedding flxln's hero I am and hero you are glum as can bo. Let's talk about pret ties," she coaxed. "There's nothing to talk about," said Dolly turning sad eyes on her friend. "Thero Isn't to be any wed ding." "No wedding!" shrieked Lisa, "No trousseau? No flxln's T" "No, nothing!" returned Dolly with an air of finality. "But, you said this morning that you wanted to see me about the wed ding plans, and I've got my brides maid's dress half made and" "Oh, keep still!" snapped Dorothy, with tears brimming her hazel eyes, i Lisa stared; her pretty mouth trembled as If speech would not be -confined, but by a supreme effort the little fair-hatred girl regained her con trol and her natural keenness. , "It's a quarrel, I suppose?" she asked tentatively. Dolly shook her head. "There Is no quarrel only I've aim ply found him out!" "Found out about Phil Waring?" "Yes." "Well, what about him? I thought he was a perfect dear, and if It hadn't been' that his brother Ralph was ten times dearer In my estimation, you would never have won Doctor Philip, my dear." Dolly jshrugged her Indifferent shoulders. "Dut you are still wearing his ring" reminded Lisa with a curlouB glance at tho diamonds on Dorothy's finger. "I had forgotten," said Dorothy, slipping off the ring and tossing it Into the waste paper basket so tempt ingly near at hand. "My, but we're reckless!" muttered Lisa. "Love letters In the flames and diamond rings In the waste paper Sasket for the servants to 'find! I . eard that Phil Waring half-starved .himself to buy that ring for you." J Dorothy's winsome face went very jwhlte. "I don't believe a word of It," she declared. "Dut It's a waste of money for him to buy a ring like that Tor a girl he doesn't care for." , "Doesn't care for?" shrieked Lisa, losing all patlonco. "Why Dolly Pen field, everyone knows he's the most devoted idiot In Franklin county so there!" "Devoted to some other girl!" flared Dorothy. Lisa suddenly wilted. "Another girl? Who Is itr "I don't know anything about her Isavo that he meets her In Lover's Way and I hate him the cowardly decelverl " choked Dorothy, J "Lover's Way?" echoed Lisa with a daxeq, expression. "Lion Mason!" criod tho exasperat ed Dorothy turning on her friend with sudden fury, "I wish you would stop echoing my words like a wretched poll parrot!" Miss Mason regarded her friend with pitying eyes. "Why you poor thing, you're Just groen with Jealousy," Bhe said with cruel deliberation. "Don't you dare pity mo!" cried Dorothy fiercely. "If you had been there If you had seem him If you had seen her!" Her voice broke sud denly. ( "Tell mo about It, doar," urged Lisa with a sudden change of tone. Dorothy turned her head away and looked Into tho flro. "You cannot know that half way down Lovor's Way thero Is a hole In a hollow trco that Phil and 1 call our postofllce. Sometimes 'he leaves a noto for me when he cannot come up becauso of some sudden call and again, when I know that his patients need every moment of his time I wrlto him a letter and leave it there so he can get it when ho passos tho end of the way. "This morning I had n special mes sage for him and I wrote It, and nftor luncheon 1 wont clown to put It In tho holo, expecting to return at onco be causo I know you wore coming thli afternoon to talk about wed wed ding things! "Well, I hurried down to tho Way, and I had nearly reached tho hollow treo when n round the little bend by the butternut trco you know where It Is, Lisa I saw Phil; ho was talk ing to a girl In a scarlet coat and her horrid yellow hair was ngalnRt his coat sleovc, and ho was patting It with his hand In the most loverlike way." "No no no I don't believe it!" cried Linn violently. "It really Is true. Lisa. I don't know who she was because her faco was hidden but I suppose sho was pretty although Phil always said he preferred. brunettes. And sho looked as though her hair was fixed with peroxide or something." "Perhaps she was a patient who was feeling 111 or something," sug gested Lisa faintly, "Humph!" snlffod Dorothy coldly. "You don't seem to havo much faith In tho man you promised to marry," remarked Lisa tartly. "You've thrown your ring away and broken your en gagement with Phil Waring, tho dear est and truest of men, when you don't know but what there Is a porfectly logical reason for what you saw to day." "That cannot be proved." Lisa Mason arose and patted her tightly clinging white serge skirt Into place. "I'm strongly tempted not to prove It to you, you havo so little faith In the best of men," she said. "How can you prove It?" demanded Dorothy, also rising. Lisa pointed dramatically to the leather couch In the corner where the warm afternoon sun came In tho window and rested on a scarlet coat. Dorothy looked and two pink spots flew to her cheeks. "You?" she de manded scornfully. "Yes, my dear, It was my 'horrid yellow head' that rested on tho manly arm of Dr. Waring," mimicked Miss Mason, with evident enjoyment and a bit of spite In her manner; "and ploaso noto, Dorothy Penfleld, that the color of my hair Is my own and always has been, as you very well know!" Dorothy was looking very cold and frozen Just then. Even the pink spots had feded away. Warm-hearted Lisa ran to her and put her arms around the shrinking shoulders. "It's such a foolish mistake, dear, and all my fault," she cried remorse fully. "If you had remained I would undoubtedly have fallen on your shoulder as well as Phil's, and be dewed your pretty frock with my tears! I know he felt mighty un comfortable all the time! Of course you didn't recognize my new scarlet coat Isn't it a beauty? Aunt Anne brought It from Richmond today. "Well, to make a long story short, and to drive the tears away from your dear eyes, I had a wretched quarrel with Ralph last night, and he went away In his Impetuous manner, threat ening to leave for the north today, and go to the other end of tho world. "I didn't sleep a wink last night, and all morning I waited for him to come and make up, but he didn't ap pear. So after luncheon I started down to Dr. Phil's to ask him If he wouldn't see Ralph and tell him for me that It was all a mistake. Just as I reached Lover's Way I saw tho doctor's car at the end of the Way, and bis coattalls were Just disappear ing among the sumachs. "So I ran after him and fell weep ing Into his arms, and frightened him most to death. Ho kept asking: 'Has anything happened to Dolly? Is Dolly all right?' until I Just bowled out what was the matter, and then h laughod and said his young brother needed Just fancy my feelings, Dolly ho said Ralph needed a' good old fashioned licking thoso are tho very words he used! Dut he did comfort me beautifully, In such a nlco eider brother sort of way, and he said Ralph would come around all right he said that Ralph had been glooming around all day. "So so Dorothy, shall we talk wedding things?" ended Lloa smiling archly at Dorothy's radiant little face. Then aho added swiftly: "Here thoy como, Dolly, Phil and Ralph and Ralph Is bearing poaco offerings candy and flowers," "Walt!" cried Dolly, breathlessly, as she fumbled in the waste paper bas ket. "Walt, Lisa, don't let them In until I get my dear ring!"

Tho skirt of panne velvet of the softest and most supple variety is made on tho "Turkish trouser" model. About all its fullness Is arranged at tho front There is no mistaking the appearance It makes on the, wearer. It looks actually more like a pair of voluminous trousers than like our ordinary skirts. The pannier and bodice in one, with soft crushed girdle of velvet, Is a wonderful garment. Tho drapery la arranged In two over-hanging pan niers, broadening the hips and hang ing Into the figure at tho bottom. The bodlco Is cut with a kimono sleove, apparently, although It Is hard to be suro of this. At all events, the nrm's-eyo Is not dlscornlblo in It. Tho sleeve Is lengthened until it cov ers the wrist and extends In a point over the back, of tho hand. Such sleovcB are tho height of styles. This costume Is an achievement of which the designer has a right to bo proud. It manages difficult problems WVN-WN-WN-y CREPE AND CHIFFON FOR ACCESSORIES THAT MATCH HAT M IN keeping with the Ideas of the sea son, which show a preference for muffs and neck pieces to match the hat, crape has been utilized to make very chic accessories to be worn with mourning millinery. The most popular fashions In bats, aa to shape and deco- ration, lend themselves with unusual appropriateness to this material. The crapo sot of three pieces, hat; muff and scarf, shown in this plcturo, Illustrates bow successfully this beau tiful fabrlo may be used In this way. Except for the silk lining of the muff, no other material is required to make and trim the several pieces, except a strip of rather heavy chiffon which forms tho scarf. The ornaments on each piece are fashioned of the crape. BSBPr ' abBbt BBS ibkM- SSSSb gjt. tw -a-a-ar PitJrAm' Its ABoV-bbbbbbMsV.

The small round hat with slightly rolling brim Is covered with tho mate rial put on smoothly. Tho crown ! small and puffed, and the odd standing ornament Is made of a hemmed strli of crape wrapped about a supporting wire and ruffled about It at the top. The scarf Is only a plain length of chiffon with its edges finished with a wide border of crane. The ends are gathered and finished with an orna ment made of folds of crape and fin ished with a bound scarf end of the fabric. This is a strip of the material bound with a narrow bias fold of crape Uko'that which trims the muff. A ready made muff bed lined with black silk and covered with It as an Interlining makes the construction of the muff a simple matter. Five deep folds of crape are placed over each side and sewed down at the ends. A strip bound of tho material is brought across tho top, tacked down one side, covering tho ends of the plaits and tied In a knot with hanging end ns a finish. The set Is as handsomo as anyone could wish and only ordinary skill In sewing 1b required to make It. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Freshening Furs.

Aleppo. From this city, the principal oaso of operations, railroad builders have pushed eastwards towards the Euphrates, which has now been reached, and northwards again to Os manlyoh, on tho way to Adana. The activity at Aleppo Is remarkable A few years ago It was a sleopy, old worldly rlan city; now all Is bustle and activity. At tho present time build ing material Is being brought over the French railway from Tripoli. From this port a train of 20 to 25 cars of Castle at Aleppo. railway material reaches Aleppo dally. Soon tho erection of nn Imposing sta tion will bo commenced nt Aleppo, to cost over a million Turkish pounds. Aleppo Ib not on tho main lino; Mosel tnleh, a llttlo to tho north, will bo the Junction of this great system of Asiatic railway; but all trains will go to Alep po over tho short branch lino connect ing it with tho Junction. A temporary wooden bridge has Just boon built over tho Euphrates so that tho rails may bo laid with all speed to Mosul. This tem porary bridge will bo replaced by a permanent handsomo structure of stoel and Iron, which will occupy three years In erection. Tho river hore is nearly a mile wldo in flood tlmo, and the cur rents run very strong. It Is ultimately Intended for Aloxandretta, near the northeast corner of that part of the Mediterranean, to be tho Byrlan port of tho Dagdad railway, and from here a branch lino has been built connect ing It with Osmantyeh.

Now York. Moro important than all tho dentists and their now fillings and methods Is tho mystery of why tooth decay. An eminent Urltish den tal authority believes that a curtain ductless glajid In tho neck, known as tho "thyroid," largely controls the destiny of our chowlng apparatus. Of courso, no ono doubts that cleaning tho mout, selecting proper food and guneral cure of tho health aid In keop lug the tcoth sound, and lack of thoso things contributes to tholr breaking down. Hut these aro not tho only causes nor tho main ones. In nplto of neglect and Ignorance. somo pcoplo havo absolutely no trou ble with their tooth, while others brush and clean and yet spend small fortunes with tho dentist. "A polished tooth nover decays," thoy say, and this Is probably true, but It Is oqual-f ly truo that nobody can koop every portion of evory tooth polished all tho tlmo. "Tho lungs and tho liver and the heart and other organs aro supposed to tako caro of .thomsolvos without one's personal attention," says this doctor. "That Is nature's buslnoss. If unturo does not attend to her bust ncss, wo ought not to bo perpetually dusting and swooping and cloanlng up after hor, as If sho wero a careless housemaid, but should call her to ac count. "Good health was early recognised as ono of tho foundations for good teeth. Uut many cases of excellent general health show poor teeth, so we must concludo that there are various kinds of good health, somo which la cludo good teeth and somo which do not. Also many patients of very feeblo constitution for some reason have no neod of tho dentist." Among all the varying causes ol health anddlseaao Is found one con stant factor. When there Is trouble with tho thyroid gland thero Is trouble with tho teeth. All over the body. In nooks and corners, are found all sorts and slses of glands. Somo of these are well understood, such as those that se crete saliva for tho mouth or tear for the eye. These have outlets called "ducts," which supply their products where they are needed. There are also other kinds of glands which have no outlet. These aro called the "duct less glands," and whatever they se crete goes right Into the blood Itself. The thyroid Ib a blind, ductless gland. It is in the neck, and when enlarged causes the dlscaso known as "goiter." The thyroid does several wonderful things for tho body of which we know, and doubtloss several others unknown. Tho entire process of growth and development of a body Into a full grown adult depends on this small body hidden a"ay behind our mouth. - "w 1T - ' . .1 MmyjLrupsMW western uinacui IV mS'IJ!'
