ReacK Semi-finals in
Forest Hill Tennis
s
Forest Hills, L. I., Aug. 30. R.
Lindley Murray, "the California me
teor," playing from Niagara Falls,
and T. W. Tilden, jr., of Philadelphia
won their way into the semi-final
round of the 37th annftal tennis
singles championship.
Murray defeated N. W, Niles. of
Boston, 7-5; 6-4; 2-6; 7-5. Tilden
resumed the match with Walter Mer
rill Hall of New York which was
interrupted yesterday with the scorel
two sets to one and anodd game in
the New Yorker's favor. The Phila
delphia!! quickly swept away Hall's
lead and won the fourth and fifth
sets; the complete score being 3-6;
6-1; 5-7; 7-1; 6-1.
The only other matches of the day
brought about defeat of Beals C.
Wright in the last play of the fifth
round. The veteran internationalist
went down in a five-set match before
the Japanese star Ichiya Kumagae,
8-10; 6:3; 3 6; 6:1; 6-2.
The Murray-Niles contest was far
the most thrilling of the day's play
and held the largest gallery of the
week. Murray started with his dash
ing attacks upon the net, but quickly
discovered that Niles driving from
deep court and his ability to drop
the ball in the far corners, either
forehand or backhand, was not to be
considered lightly. The Californian
was repeatedly passed, both at the
net and as he sprinted to the barrier.
it was only after summoning his last

BRIGHT LIGHTS
AND GIRLS TOO
MUCH JOR BOYS
Two Oklahoma Lads Say the
Path Is Rosy While
the Money
Lasts.
The white lights and the gay life of
Omaha was quite attractive to Jack
Kucffer, 17, and Tipper Schier, 20, two
unsophisicated youths of Oklahoma
City, Okla. They enjoyed the gay
life until their funds became depleted,
and then they cast about to find, a
way to replenish the exhausted ex
chequer. The method they employed
landed them in the city jail.
The two youths came here from
Oklahoma City a few days ago, hav
ing motored from he home town.
Nothing was too good for them, and
the jazz music ami pretty girls, along
with a $15 lodging bill at the Sanford
hotel, proved their undoing. In or
der to raise funds they forged two
checks, $8.50 in all, on two north
side grocers. They were doing .a
landlord office business when the po
lice picked them up and took them to
the station. They broke down and
made a confession.
Young Kueffer says he is the son
of a well-to-do oil man of Oklahoma,
ana Schier says his father is connect
ed with the Department of Revenue
in that district.
"We don't want our folks to find
this out," said Kueffer, but we sure
want to get out of it."
Schier wasn't worrying about the
future. All he could think of was the
jazz music and pretty girls at the
gardens.
"Say," he ejaculated, "it sure does
take a fellow's bankroll down fast to
stick around and have a good time."
The two boys had about $52 when
arrested. They told the police that
their automobile needed repairing and
that it would take all their cash to get
it fixed.
World Records Made

At Iowa State Fair
Des Moines, la., Aug. 30. Four
world's automobile records for a half
mile dirt track were madeat the
Iowa state fair today. Ed Ellingboe

hundredths of a second faster than
the former record, but his mark
stood only a few minutes as John
Haudail turned the Up in :31.40.
Ray Lampkin set a new mark of
2;09.60 for two miles but Ellingboe
immediately broke the record again
with 2:08. The old record was
2:14.006. In making this time he
drove the first mile in 1:03.80, lower
ing the world's record sixty-five-hun-dredths
of a second.
In winning the three-mile race
Ellingboe covered the distance in
3:15.80, another record,
world's mark was 3:22.

AMERICAN GUNS .
MAINTAIN FIRE
ON ENEMY LINES
(Continued From Tnge One.)
weakening and observers reported
; troop movements which appeared to
indicate a regrouping and pernaps re
tirement. The orders to the Americans were
to maintain a harassing fire through
out the day and even the minor at
tack on one flank was decided upon
only after the advance made by the
French indicated its advisability.
Await Call Under Shelter.
Over the field the American infan
try remained in the positions they
had held last night. Dug in behind
almost every little rise on the pla
teau and on the hillside, they awaited
the order to attack. Closer to the
German positions scores of shell holes
sheltered the men from the sweep
ing machine gun fire, while further
j4o the rear there were companies
waiting to be called.
The artillery went into the action
early in the morning, not in barrage,
but firing first at one point in the
German lines and then at another in
accordance with reports indicating
places where the Germans were mobil
izing or where there might be danger
of a concentration. Rarely have the
American troops delivered over such
a period so continuous a fire.
The lines are close together and
great shells from the howitzers were
mixed with those from lighter guns.
American guns sent shells for in the
rear of the enemy lines.
Day of Sn:p:ng.
The .American infantry between
the lines were forced to become' a
part of the action today by the de
termined Germans, whose long line
of machine gun emplacements was
supplemented by groups of infantry
who fired at every appearance of the
Americans. It was a day of sniping
for them, especially the machine gun
ners. Their fire did not rise in most
cases ten inches above the ground
One gunner had the trick of holding
the trigger until just three shots
were fired. All day long his gun
gave forth its "tat, tat, tat." every
burst being followed by a slight
change in direction.
A large part of those caught in the
ground-sweeping fire were wounded
below the knees.
The Germans in front of the Amer
icans at times were subjected not only
to the fire of the American guns, but
to a supplemental raking from the
French. It has been impossible to
ascertain the German casualties, but
it is certain that they were heavy.
The big gun fire reached the max
imum of intensity. The Americans
used no gas shells. The Germans
used them in smaller quantities than
usual.

CHAPTER XIII.
The Dancing Begins.
Christmas saw many changes in
the Blaisdell families.
The James Blaisdells had moved
into the big house near the Gaylord
place. Mrs. Ilattie had installed two
maids in the kitchen, bought a hand
some touring car, and engaged an
imposing looking chauffeur. Fred had
entered college, and Bessie had been
sent to a fashionable school on the
Hudson. Benny, to his disgust, had
also been sent away to an expensive
school. Christmas, however, found
them all at home for the holidays, and
for the big housewarming that their
parents were planning to give on
Christmas night.
The Frank Blaisdells had also
moved. They were occupying a new
house not too far from the grocery
store. They had .not bought it yet.
Mrs. Jane said that she wished to
live in it awhi'e, so as to be sure she
would really like it. Besides, it wou'd
save the interest on the money for
that much time, anyway. True, she
had been a little disturbed when her
husband reminded her that they
would be paying rent meanwhile. But
she said that didn't matter; she was
not going to put alt that money into
a house just yet, anyway not till she
was sure A was the best they could
do for the price.
They, too, were p'anning a house
warming. Theirs was to come the
night after Christmas. Mrs. Jane
told her husband that they should
not want theirs the same' night, of
course, as Hattie's and that if she had
hers right away the next night, she
could eat up any of the cakes or ice
cream that was left from Hattie's
party, and thus save buying so much
for herself. But her husband was so
indignant over the idea Df eating
"Hattie's leavings" that she had to
give up this(part of her plan, though
she still arranged to have her house
warming on the day following her
sister-in-law's.
Mellicent, like Bessie, was home
from school, though not from the
same school. Mrs. Jane had found
another one that was just as good as
Bessie's, she said, and which did not
cost near so much money. Mr.
Smith was not living with them now,
of course. He was "boarding at Miss
Maggie Duff's.
Miss Flora was living in the same
little rented cottage she had occupied
for many years. She said that she
should move, of course when she got
through her mourning, but until then
she thought it more suitable for her to
stay where she was. She had what
she wanted to eat, now, however, and
she did not do dressmaking any
longer. She still did her own house
work, in spite of Harriet Blaisdell's
insistence that she get a maid. She
said that there was plenty of time for
all those things when she had finished
her mourning. She went out very lit
tle, though she did go to the house
warming at her brother James' be
ing a relative, so she decided no criti
cism could be made.
It seeined as if all Hillerton went to
that house-warming. Those who were
not especially invited to attend went
as far as the street or the gate, and
looked on enviously. Mrs. Hattie had
been very generous with her iuvita
tions, however. She said that she had
asked everybody who ever pretended
to go anywhere. She told Maggie
Duff that, of course, after this, she
should be more exclusive very ex
clusive, in fact; but that this time Jim
wanted to ask everybody and that
she didn't mind so much she was
really glad to have all these people
see the .house, and all thev cer-
Perfect Health Is Yours
If the Blood Is Kept Pure
Almost Every Human Ailment
Is Directly Traceable to Im
purities in the Blood.
You cannot overestimate the im
portance of keeping the blood free of
impurities. When you realize that
the heart is constantly pumping this
vital fluid to all parts of the body,
you can easily see that any impurity
in the blood will cause serious com
plications. Any slight disorder or impurity
that creeps into the blood is a
source of danger, for every vital
organ of the body depends upon the
blood supply to properly perform its
functions.
Many painful and dangerous dis
eases are the direct result of a bad
condition of the blood. Among the
most serious are Rheumatism, with

again.
Mr. Smith attended with Miss Mag
gie. Mrs. Hattie had very kindly in
cluded him in the invitation. She had
asked Father Duff, too, especially,
though she knew, of course, that he
would not go he never went any
where. Father Duff bristled up r.t
this, and declared that he guessed he
would go, after all, just to show them
that he could, if he wanted to. Mrs.
Hattie grew actually pale, but Mis
Maggie exclaimed joyfully that, of
course, he would go he ought to go,
to show proper respectl Father Duff
said no then, very decidedly; that
nothing could hire him to go, and that
he had no respect to show. He de
clared that he had no use for gossip
and gabble and unwholesomeeatlng;
and he said that he should not think
Maggie would care to go, either
unless she could be in the kitchen
where it would seem natural to her!
Mrs. Hattie, however, smiled kindly,
and said, of course, now that she could
afford to hire better help than Maggie
(caterers from the city and all that),
so Maggie would not have to be in
the kitchen, and that with practice she
would soon learn not to mind at all
being round among folks in the par
lor. Father Duff had become so apoplec
tically angry at this that Mr. Smith,
who chanced to be present, and who
also was very angry, was forced to
forget his own wrath in his desire to
make the situation easier for Miss
Maggie.
He had not supposed that Miss
Maggie would go at all, after that. He
had even determined not to go him
self. But Miss Maggie, after a day's
thought, had laughed and had said,
with her eyes twinkling: "Oh, well, it
doesn't matter, you know ifcdoesn't
really matter, does it?" And tney had
gone. .
It was a wonderful party. Mr. Smith
enjoyed it hugely. He saw almost
everybody he knew in Hillerton, and
many that he did not know. He heard
the Blaisdells and their new wealth
discussed from all viewpoints, and he
heard some things about the missing
millionaire benefactor that were par
ticularly interesting to him. The
general opinion seemed to be that the
man was dead; though a few admit
ted that there was a possibility, of
course, that he was merely lost some
where in darkest South America and
would eventually get back to civiliza
tion, certainly long before the time
came to open the second letter of
instructions. , Many professed to
know the man well, through maga
zine and newspaper accounts (there
were times when Mr. Smith adjusted
more carefully the smoked glasses
which he was still wearing); and
some had 'much to say of the mil
lionaire's characteristics, habits and
eccentricities; all of which' Mr. Smith
enjoyed greatly.
Then, too, there were the Blaisdells
themselves. They were all there, even
to Miss Flora, who was in dead black;
and Mr. Smith talked with them all.
Miss Flora told him that she was
so happy she could not sleep nights,
but that she was rather g'ad she
couldn't sleep, after all, for she spent
the time mourning for poor Mr. Ful
ton., and thinking how good1 he had
been to her. And that made it seem
as if she was doing something for
him. She said, yes, oh, yes, she
was going to stop black mourning
in six months, and go into grays and
lavenders; and she was glad Mr.
Smith thought that was long enough,
quite long enough for the black, but
she could not think for a moment of
putting on colors now, as he suggest
ed. She said, too, that she had de
cided not to go to Niagara for the
present. And when he demurred at
this, she told him that really she
would rather not. It would be warmer
in the spring, and she would much
rather wait till she could enjoy every
minute without feeling that well,
that she was almost dancing over the
poor man's grave, as it were.
Mr. Smith did not urge her after
that. He turned away, indeed, rather
precipitately so precipitately that
Miss Flora wondered if she could
have said anything to offend him.
Mr. Smith talked next with Mrs.
Jane Blaisdell. Mrs. Jane was look
ing particularly well that evening.
Her dress was new, and in good
style, yet she in some way looked
odd to Mr. Smith. n a moment he

Mr. Smith had never seen her with
out an apron before. Even on the
street she wore a black silk one. He
complimented her gallantly on her
fine appearance. But Mrs. Jane did
not smile. She frowned.
"Yes I know. Thank you, f
course," she answered worriedly. "But
it cost an awful lot this dress did;
but Frank and Mellicent would have
it. That child! have you seen her
tonight?"
"Miss Mellicent? Yes, in the dis
tance. She, too, is looking most
charming, Mrs. Blaisdell.
The woman tapped her foot im
patiently. ,
"Yes, I know she is and some
other folks think so, too, I notice
Was she with that Pennok boy?"
"Not when I saw her."
"Well, she will be, if she isn't
now. He follows her everywhere."
"But I thought that was broken
up." Mr. Smith now was frowning.
"It was. You know what that
woman said the insult! But now,
since this money came " She let
an expressive gesture complete the
sentence.
Mr. Smith laughed.
"I wouldn't worry, Mrs. Blaisdell, I
don't think he'll make much headway
now."
"Indeed he won't if I can help my
self!" flaslied the woman indignantly.
"I reckon he won't stand much
show with Miss .Mellicent after
what's happened."
"I guess he won't," snapped the
woman. "He isn't worth half what
she is now. As if I'd let her look at
him!"
"But I meant -' Mr.. Smith stop
ped abruptly. There was an odd ex
pression on h:s face.
Mrs. Blaisdell filled the pause.
"But, really, Mr. Smith, I don't
know what I am going to do with
Mellicent," she sighed.
"Do with her?"
"Yes. She's as wild as a hawk and
as as flighty as a humming-bird,
since this money came. She's so
