SYNOPSIS.
John Waring, gentleman and
scholar, has just won the hotly con
tested election to the presidency of
Corinth college, a venerable New
England seat of learning. Before lus
inauguration, he plans to marry
Emily Mates, a charming and cul
tured widow. With Ills life's ambi
tion achieved and a rosy future as
sured, there is yet an instant's hesi
tation before he answers in the af
firmative her question, "Are you en
tirely happy?"
Into this quiet college town comes
“Miss Mystery." Through her un
canny ability to compel others to do
her iddding. she succeeds in estab
lishing herself at Corinth’s most i v
elusive boarding house, kept by Mrs.
Adams and her husband "Old Salt.'
Further than giving her name as
Anita Austin, the “Mystery Girl" re
fuses to divulge any information re
garding herself or tier business in Cor
inth.
This piques the curiosity of the
other boarders.
Cordon Lockwood, secretary of John
Waring, had a room at the Adams
house. But ns lie look no ineals there
save his breakfasts, and as he ate
those early, he had not Jet met Anita
Austin.
Hut one Saturday morning he
chanced to he lato, and the two sat at
table together.
An astute reader of humanity,
Lockwood at once became interested
In ths girl, and realized that to win
her attention he must not be eager or
insistent.
He spoke only one or two of the
merest commonplaces, until almost at
the close of the meal he said:
^ ‘‘('an I do anything for you. Miss
” Austin? If you would come to hear
eny of the college lectures I can ar
range It."
"Who are the speakers?"
She turned her eyes fully upon him,
and Gordon Lockwood marveled at
their depth and beauty.
"Tonight," lie replied. "Dr. W aring
is to lecture on Egyptian archeology.
Are yoll Interested in that?"
“yes,” she said, "very much ho. I'd
like to go.”
"Vou certainly may. then. Just use
this card."
Ho took a card from his pocket,
scribbled a line ueroaw it, and gave It
to her. Without Another word he fin
ished his breakfast, and with a mere
courteous bow 'lie left the room.
Miss Austin’s face took on a more
inscrutable look than ever.
The card still in het^hand, she went
up to her room. Unheeding the maid,
•who was at her duties there, the girl
threw heraelf Into a big chair and sat
staring at the card. v
"The Egyptian Temples." she said
to herself. "Doctor John Waring."
The maid looked at her curiously as

1 »he murmured the words half aloud,
but Miss Austin paid no heed.
"Go on with your work. Nora, don’t
mind me,” she said, at last, as the
chambermaid paused inquiringly in
front of her. "I don't mind your be
ing here until you finish what you
have to do. And I wish you'd bring
me a Corinth paper, please. There is
one, isn't there?”
"Oh. yes, ma'am. Twice a week."
Nora disappeared and returned with
a paper.
“Mr. Adams says you may have this
to keep. It's the newest one.”
The girl took it and turned to find
the college announcements. The
Kg.vption lecture was mentioned, and
in another column was a short article
regarding Dr. Waring and a picture
of him.
Long the girl looked at the picture,
und when the inald, her tasks com
pleted, left the room, she noticed Miss
Austin still staring at the fine face of
tlie president-elect of the University
of Corinth.
Thirteen Ituttons
Afler a time Miss Austin reached
for a tvair of scissors, und cut out the
portrait und ttie article which It illus
trated.
Sim put tile clipping in a portfolio,
which she then locked in her trunk,
and the picture she placed on her
dresser.
That night she went to the lecture.
She went alone, for Gordon Lockwood
did not reappear und no one else
knew of her going.
"Shall I have a key. or will you be
up?" she asked of Mrs. Adams, as she
left the house. ,
"Oh, we ll be up." The round,
shrewd eyes looked at her kindly.
“You’re lucky to get a ticket. Doctor
Waring's lectures ure crowded."
"Good night," said Miss Austin, and
went away.
The lecture room was partly filled
when she arrived, and her ticket en
titled her to a seat near the front.
Heipg seated, she fell into a brown
sillily, or. at least, sat motionless anil
apparently in deep thought.
Gordon Ixickwood.i already there,
saw her come in, aim after she was
in her place, he quietly arose and
went across the room, taking a seat
directly behind her.
Of tliis she was quite unaware, and
the student of hunufn nature gave
himself up to a scrutiny of the
stranger.
He saw a little head, its mass of
dark, almost black hair surmounted
by a small turban shaped hat, of
taupe colored velvet, with a curly
ostrich tip nestling over one ear.
Not that her ears were visible, for
Miss Austin was smartly groomed and
her whole effect modish.
She hud removed her coat, which,
Rhe hold in her lap. Her frock was
taupe colored, of a soft woolen ma
terial, ornamented with many small
buttons. These tiny buttons formed
two rows down her back, from either
shoulder to the waist line, and they
also formed a border round the sailor
collar.
They were, perhaps, Lockwood de
cided, little halls, rather than but
tons. and he idly counted them as he
sat watching her.
He hoped she would turn her head
a trifle, but she sat as motionless as a
human being may.
He marveled at her stillness, and
impatiently waited for the lpcture to
begin that he might,note iier interest.
At last Doctor Waring appeared ort
the platform, and as the applause re
sounded aH over the room. Lockwood
was almost startled to observe Miss
Austin's actions.
She clasped her hands together as
if she h id received a sudden shock.
She—If it hadn’t seemed too absurd—
he would have said that she trembled.
At any rate she was a little agitated,
and it was with an effort that site pro
served her calm. No vine else noticed
her, and Ixiek wood would not have
done so, save for Ills close watching.
Throughout I lie -lecture. Miss A us
tins gaze seemed never to leave the
face or the speaker, and I-ockwood
marveled that Waring himself was not
■ drawn to notice her.
Hut Waring's calm gaze, though it
; traveled over the audience, never
rested definitely on any one face, and
Lockwood concluded he recognized no
body.
"Miss Mystery!” Gordon Lockwood
said to himself. *T wonder who and
" hat >mi nre. Probably a complex na
ture, psychic and imaginative. You
think it interesting to come up here
and pretend to lie it mystery. j:ut
you re loo young* and too innocent to
be—lm not so sii 1*0 of t tie Innocent,
ihough—and as to youth—-well, T don't
believe you're much older tban you
u>ok, anyway. And you’re confound
edly pretty beautiful, rather, you've
loo much in your face to call it mere
ly pretty. I’ve never seen such pos
sibilities of character. You’re either
a deep one or your looks belle you.”
Lockwood heard no word of the lec
Lire, nor did he wish to; he had helped i
in the writing of it, and almost knew )
it by heart anyway. But he was
really intrigued by this mysterious
girl, and he determined to get to
know her.
He had been told, of course, of the
futile attempts of the other boarders
in make friends with her. but he had
faith in his own attractiveness and In
his methods of procedure.
Pinky Payne, too, had told of the
Interview he had on the bridge. Ills
account of tht^irl's beauty anil charm
had first roused Lockwood's interest,
and now he was making a study of
the whole situation.
Idly he counted the buttons again.
There were Li across tho collar.
The vertical.rows be could oot be sure
of as the back of the seat cut off their
view.
'•Thirteen, ’ he mused; "an unlucky
number. And the poor child looks un
lucky. There’s a sadness in her eyes
that must mean something. Yet there's
more than sadness—there's a hint of
1 cruelty—a possibility of desperate
( deeds."
And then Lockwood laughed at him
1 self. To romance thus about a girl
to wdiorrt he had not said half a dozen
, sentences In his life! Yet he knew he
1 was not mistaken. All that he had
read in Anita Austin's face, he was
sure was there. He knew phsiognomy,
and rarely, if ever, was mistaken in
his reading thereof.
After the lecture was over Miss
Austin went home as quickly as pos
sible.
Lockwood would have liked to es
cort her, but he had to remain to re
port to Dr. Waring, who might have
some orders for him.
There were none, however, and aft
er a short interview with his employ
er, Gordon Lockwood went home.
As he Whnt softly upstairs to his
room in the Adams house, he passed
the door of what he knew to be Miss
Austins room. He fancied he heard
a stifled sob come from behind that
closed door, and instinctively paused
to listen a moment.
Yes, he was not mistaken. Another
sob followed, quickly suppressed, but
he could have no doubt the girl was
crying.
For a moment Lockwood w.is temp
ted to go back and ask Mrs. Adama to
come and tap at the girl's door.
Then he realised that it was not his
affair. If the girl was In sorrowr or
if she wanted to cry for any reason,
it was not his place- to send some one
to intrude upon her. He went to hie
own room, lnit he sut up for a long
time thinking over the strange young
woman in the house.
He remembered that she had paid
undeviating attention to the lecture,
quite evidently following tlie speaker
with attention and interest. He re
membered every detail of her appear
ance. her pretty dark hair showing
beneath her little velvet toque—the
absurd buttons on the back of her
frock.
"That will do, Gordon, old man,"
he told himself at last. Better let
her alone. She's a siren all right,
but you know- nothing about her, and
you've no reason to try to learn more.
And then he heard voices in the
hall. Low of tone, but angry of in
flection.
"She threw it away!" Miss Austin
was saying "I tell you she threw
it away!"
"There, there," came Mis. Adams’
plaeatirffc voice, “what if she did? it
was only a newspaper scrap. She
didn't know it was of any value.”
"But I want It! Nora has no busi
ness to throw away my things! She
had no reason to touch il: it was on
the dresser—standing up against tlie
mirror frame. What do you suppose
she did with it?”
"Never mind it tonight. Tomorrow
we will ask her. She's gone to bed."
"But I’m afraid she destroyed it!"
Drohably she did. Don't take on
so. What paper was it?” '
"The Cornith Gazette."
"The new one?”
"I don’t know. The one she brought
me this afternoon.”
"Well. If she has thrown it away,
you can get another copy. What was
in it that you want so much?"
"Oh—nothing special."
"Yes, it was," Mrs. Adams’ curi
osity was aroused now. “Come, tell
file what it was.”
“Well, it was only a picture of Dr.
Waring, the man who lectured to
night."
"Such a fuss about that! My good
ness! Why, you can get a picture of
him anywhere.”
"But I want It now."
An obstinate note rang in the young
.voice. Perhaps Miss Austin spoke
louder than she meant to, but at any'
rate, Lockwood heard most of the con
versation .and he now opened his
door, and said
"May I offer a photograph? Would
you care to have this. Miss Austin?"
"How dare you!" she cried; "how
dare you eavesdrop and listen to a
conversation not meant for your ears?
Don’t speak to me!"
She drew up her slender figure and
looked like a wrathful pixie defying a
giant. For Ikiekwood was a hig man,
and loomed far above the slight, dain
ty figure of Miss Mystery.
He smiled good naturedly as he said:
"Now don’t get wrathy. 1 don’t mean
any harm. But yap wanted a picture
of Dr. Waring and I’ve several of
them. You see, I’m his secretary."
“Oh—are you! His private secre
tary?"
"Yes—his confidential one—though
he has few confidences. He's a pub
lic man and his life is an open book."
"Oh, it is!" The girl had recovered
her poise, and with it her ability to
be sarcastic. “Known to all men, I
suppose?”
“Known to all men,” repeated Lock
wood, thinking far more of the girl
he was speaking to than of what he
was saying.
For, again he had fallen under the
spell of her strange personality. He
watched her, fascinated', as she reach
ed out for the picture and almost
snatched at it in her eagerness.
Mrs. Adams yawned behind her
plump hand.
“Now you’ve got your picture, go
to bed, child.” she said with a kind,
motherly smile. "I'll come in and un
hook you. shall 1?”
obediently, ami without a word of
good night to Lockwood. Anita turned
and went into her room, followed by
Mrs. Adams. The good lady offered
no disinterested service. She wanted
to know why Miss ’ Austin wanted
that, picture so much. She didn't
find out. After being of such help
as she could, the landlady found her
self pleasantly but definitely, dis
missed. Outside (he door, however,
she turned and reopened It. Miss Mys
tery. unnoticing the intruder, was
covering the photograph with many
and passionate kisses.

PNKl’MONIA HANGERS.
The Chicago health department is
sues the following instructions to
those who would avoid pneumonia:
Be regular in your habits of living,
as to diet and proper rest.
Avoid undue and prolonged expos
ure to wet and cold.
Get as much exercise in the open
air as you can.
Dress so that you will feel com
fortable in the house and equally a*
comfortable when out of doors in a
lower temperature.
Keep your living rooms at n tem
perature not exceeding 70 degrees.
For people in normal health and prop
erly clad 68 degrees Is better.
Keep your feet dry and warm.
Do not cough or sneeze in any one's
face or allow others to cough or
sneeze in your immediate presence.
Remember that pneumonia is highly
contagious and that there are persons
who are carriers and that when they
sneeze or cough openly in the air close
to you you are in danger of becoming
infected.
In a box at the top of their bulletin
is found a word of advice signed by
Commissioner Bundesen. from which
the following is quoted:
"It is recommended in the treat
ment of pneumonia that antigen be
used at once in all cases and before
giving any other treatment. At the
same time a specimen of the sputum
should be sent in for examination.
The antigen is administered by hypo
dermic."
Experience has shown that these
antigens have a decided prophylactic
value and their use for this purpose
is recommended. At the end of the
bulletin of advice tills paragraph ap
pears:
"The important tiling in ventilation
is to let the good air in and the had
air out."
The bulletin furthermore says that
in 1921 8.336 cases of pneumonia and
2,164 deaths from pneumonia were re
ported in Chicago.
In the first 10 months of 1822 the
number of cases reported was 8,145
and the number of deaths was 2,085.
This indicates that the pneumonia
situation in Chicago in 1922 is worse
than it was in 1921. The report of the
census office shows that over America
generally the winter increase of sick
ness jumped up in October much more
rapidly than It did in the same month
in 1921.
If we are to lessen pneumonia ttiis
winter, or even to hold our own. each
person must do his duty by himself
and by his fellow man.
He Has Ozena.
Aslt writes: “I have had a disease
of which I do not know the name, for
the last four or five years. I have a
terrible breath and large greenish
scabs come from my nose once or
twice a day. I am in constant fear
that I will develop tuberculosis from
this disease. 1 am worse In winter
than In summer. Kindly tell me what
I have and if I can be cured and how.”
REPLY.
My guess is that you have ozena.
Ozena is not related to tuberculosis.
Some oases of ozena are on red by a
nose specialist. Keeping the surface
of the nose membranes saturated with
sugar is one treatment. Injecting
paraffin, another.
Can Afford fo I,ose Kidney.
Mrs. A. L. K. writes: "I had a kid
ney taken out a few years ago and
was told I could not have children. I
:im now to become a mother. Kindly
advise if it is so serious, as I am ter
ribly upset."
REPLY.
Fortunately, we come Into this
world endowed with a great excess of
kidney. It has been estimated that we
hnve 24 times as much as we need.
Since you have lost half of yours, you
still have 12 limes as much as you
need, assuming the remaining kidney
is sound.
Better Stay at Home.

climate for consumption in the first
stages?"

llaek-Yard Poultry Keeping.
In every household, no matter iiow
economical the housewife, there is a,
certain amount of table scraps and
kitchen waste which has feeding value
but which if not fed. tlnds its way
into the garbage pail.
Poultry is the only class of domes
tic animals which are suitable for
converting this waste material Into
wholesome and nutritious food in
the form of eggs and poultry meat.
Tho Federal Bureau of Animal in
dustry advocates a small back-yard
flock to utilize this waste and have
published a booklet on the subject. It
points out the advantages of a back
yard flock of poultry and gives in
structions for earing for them.

Men who have mails a study of the
subject sav that there are more fain
ily-uuarreia in winter than there are
in slimmer.
This, it is stated, is due to the fact
tli.it members of a family are more
closely associated in winter; children
are more disturbing in their play, and
husbands and wives disagree as to
their social amusements.
There is not enough of the olden
time fireside reading: there is not
enough effort on tlie part of parents
to afford amusement to their children.
Too much Individualism among par
ents anil the way they take their di
versions account for more trouble.
Wives complain if husbands object
to going to a dance and vice versa.
Husbands grumble because wives
are at the dub and they are alone so
much, and vice versa.
There are homes w'here the man
js visibly "bored” when he has to be

The great thing is "give and take”
