$, Perhaps you'd better have a doctor In before I can get there. Sure you're not worrying unnecessarily." "Oh, no, dear; I tell you she is sick. I'll have Nora go down for Dr. Marshall. He's right here in the house.

Yes, I know you will, dear. Good Dr. Marshall, the calm young doctor who had the apartment on the first floor, came in just before Warren. He examined Winifred carefully and at the fear in Helen's eyes. Winifred had begun to breathe hard and the doctor lifted her up into his arms quickly and carried her out into the kitchen.

"She's in for an attack of croup," he explained to Helen. "We'll steam her over the mouth of the kettle, and then I'll give you some medicine. Tou called me in plenty of time, so there is no danger." Helen watched him as ho deftly arranged a tent of a. blanket, and a moment later was kitting with Winifred on his knee, the steam from the kettle pouring into the child's mouth. In the midst of it Warren came in and at the same time Ihe telephone rang and Nora flew to answer it.

Later when Winifred was in bed and the doctor had gone, and she, close beside Warren on the arm of his chair, was watching the child fall quietly asleep, Helen thought suddenly of the telephone message. "It was Miss Barnett, ma'am," whispered Nora, when Helen encountered her in the dining room. "I told her you'd call her up later." Helen smiled as she went back to her post. How little things like that seemed to count when the really big worries came along, she reflected. After all, God was very good to her.

There is no rule governing the length of the coats and capes, but the three qquarters length is a conservative one. Collars, cuffs and bauds of fur are so extensively used to trim street costumes that it is not really necessary to possess a scarf, and just now, when conditions mean an advance in the price of furs, that fact is an interesting one.

HELEN and WARREN or THEIR MARRIED LIFE "My dear, I know this Is an outlandish time to call on any one, but I had to see you. and here I am." And Miss Barnett sank gratefully into one of the living room chairs and looked around her admiringly. "This is the first time I have ever seen your apartment," she went on; "I think it most attractive." Helen smiled. She did not know Miss Barnett verv well, although she was very prominent in the works of tne current Events ciutt, or wmtn Helen was a member. A call from her was very unexpected, and at the moment Helen was rather worried about Winifred.

She had Just fin ished putting Winifred to bed and had thought she seemed levensn. Although she did not admit it to her self, however. Helen realized in a vague sort of wav that she was un neoessarilv particular about Winifred and thoueht that after all the idea that the child was not well was probably just imagination. She had lust finished lunch and Nora was still busy with the table when the bell had rung and Miss Bar nett had appeared. Winifred was al ready asleep and Helen resolved to put the idea of anything being the matter out of her mind entirely.

"I am glad to see you," she said cor dlallv. "Yes, and I suppose you are crazy to know what I am after. "Can't I imagine that you have Just come to see me?" queried Helen. Miss Barnett laughed. "Of course, my dear, and it is perfectly true that I have been wanting to call on you for ever so long, but a call at this time of the afternoon would be quite too unconventional." "Well, what is the great and lm Wm.

I am eaten up with curi osity really, so do tell me." Miss Barnett curled up into a more comfortable position in the big chair and looked at Helen pleadingly as though she were hardly sure of get ting what she had come after. "Weil, you have heard about the childrsn's carnival we are going to have for the benefit of the United Aids you remember that we" dis cussed it at the last club Winifred Is Wanted to Pose at a Car.

nival Helen nodded. "Well," laughing and pulling a long race, "you don know how afraid I am to ask this, but we want little Winifred to pose as the Age of In nocence." Miss Barnett, relieved of the re quest that had been on her mind, leaned back in the chair with a sigh of relief. Helen could not help laugh ing at her. "Why, I haven't any objejction," she said slowly. Of course.

I'd have to speak to Mr. Curtis aboat It first, but 1 am almost sure that he won object. I hope you can arrange her picture earlier in the evening than some of the others; she is so very young and we never allow her to be up at night." "We'll do everything In our power," said Miss Barnett, eagerly, "and you are a dear to let us have her. We are having such a terrible time getting children, really good looking ones I mean. For instance, we can't find any one to pose as The Blue Boy, and Mr.

Willetts, who has charge of the pic tures, thinks that we shouldn't miss that." Like a flash the thought of little John Richards came over Helen. If Laura would allow It, what a perfectly beautiful tableau the child would make. She wondered if she ought to tell impulsive Miss Barnett about it. Since Laura had married Mr. Richards Helen felt almost in awe of her in regard to some things.

She hardly knew what to do about it. "What are you hesitating about?" said Miss Barnett, who had been watching her narrowly. actually believe that you have thought of some one to pose as The Blue Boy." Helen had not realized Just how much her face had expressed. "I have a friend who has the most beautiful child that I ever saw out side of a story book," she explained. but I am not at all sure that I can get her for you." Miss Barnett was all excitement, but she could not persuade Helen to tell her anything more.

"It wouldn't l)e fair," Insisted Hel en, "but I promise you to do all I can for you; I will let you know Just as soon as I can lind out, and I hope you can have her for the Blue Boy."

It was foolish to think of such a thing, but still the thought was there and she could not help it. of course, she could tele phone Miss Barnett that she had tried and the idea was impossible, but it would be a shame not to have Joan pose if there were a chance in the world to get her. The Child Calls From Her Bedroom Helen was musing on the subject and wondering whether or not to telephone Laura when Winifred called her from the bedroom, and she Jumped up, for the moment the subject of tableaux forgotten entirely. Winifred had just waked up from her nap and was still rolled up in the silk com fortable just as Helen had left her, but there were pink spots on each of her round little cheeks and her eyes were very large and bright. For a moment Helen's heart seemed to almost stop beating she was too frightened to breathe.

Then she went over to the bed and picked up Winifred in her arms. The child looked at her strangely for a moment and then smiled and pushed her hand inside Helen's collar again! her throat in a little way she had. Helen caught her up against her passionately. Was Winifred going to be sick again? Why, It was hardly any time since her operation, and she had been po careful about her ever since. "I want a drink of water, mother," Winifred was saying, fretfully, "and I don't want to go out with Nora it's cold." "Mother wfl! cover you all no on the bed, dear," Helen crooned, "where it will be nice and warm.

Nora! she called, as Nora passed the room to get dressed. "Come in here for a moment, will you? I don't think Win ifred is well enough to go out this afternoon will you bring her a glass of water, please?" Nora came in with the water and Helen held Winifred up while she drank thirstily. "Get Mr. Curtis on the wire and then call me, will you, Nora?" and then she turned Winifred while Nora hurried out to do as she was bid. "Mr.

Curtis" Helen could hear Nora say, and the voice seemed to come from far away. Winifred had fallen Into a stupor, with her eyes partly open and her cheeks growing hotter every minute. With a gasp of relief she hurried out to the hall to the telephone at Nora's call. "Is that you, Warren? Tes, this is Helen. Do you think you could come home earlv this afternoon, I am so worried about Winifred; she seems to have a high fever." Warren's voice came singing across the telephone reassuringly calm.

"All right. I'll come up right away. TIMELYFASHION HINTS OF THE NEWS TIMES 4 heft v. i i mmiVi 'fr, iff I I Hat in new autumn styles wun oiuei brim of tulle. Modified stovepipe crown of black velvet and very smart pleated moire ribbon cocado, also black.

As he raised the glass to his lips a woman came hurriedly into the place from the street and began cutting the man across the face with a whip. They were husband and wife. "I will continue to use the whip so long as my husband neglects his home, his business and his wife for strong drink.

I've tried kindness and love until I'm sick and tired; now the time has come to use the quirt and brute force." ts the way this woman explained it to the reporters. Some will Justify and others dls a prove this wife's actions. It may be that the man merited a whipping, but the use of violence by anyone, except in self defence, is prohibited by law. The Scranton woman that she used the whip in defence of her home. In her long interview covering the incident the woman makes no reference to her children, so we assume there are none in the family.

And, since she would scarcely whip her husband in public and then berate him for publication if she cherished great affection for him, we must conclude tha she acted from some selfish, personal motive. Had she possessed sny sense of dignity, any vestige of genuine self re spect, this woman would have endured privation or else gone away to live her own life alone. The vigor with which she swung the whip indicates that she could earn her own living if she wanted to. Evening Telegraph. Foley Cathartic Tablets.
