JULE'S BATTLE WITH THE WORLD HER OWN STORY BY A REAL GIRL By Mary E. Walter Summary: Julia Norris, a spirit ed and ambitious country girl, re fused an education, runs away from farm drudgery to work at a sum mer hotel; later she seeks work in the city where her first day and night are spent in anxiety. THE I XEXPECTED ft 504 PENN STREET. ith my valise shifting from hand to hand, my purse in my belt, emptied of the last cent I I had in the world, my contract for a most elusive "Job" bulging in my stocking, I trailed over those weary blocks from from the mussy little lunch place with the twinkling sign, up and down, across and back again, till I knew the cor ers bv heart. I mingled and jostled with the crowd that had swelled to a press, the "theatre crowd." characteristically careless of the woes of a little country girl.

I have sometimes thought since days that this very heartlessness of the big city brings out the best in us, puts back bone in limp bodies when there is place for back bone. The crowd thinned till a few late stragglers, hurrying workers and I were left in the echoing street. Still the right corner and the right side seemed to have gone the way of the two suave men in the agency. Mamie had told me a week before that Sally worked in somebody's restaurant, a name that meant nothing then and had left me. Mamie and I had planned at first to spend the night where Sally lived, but suddenly had come the sunny prospects of Florida and I was left without a hint of her cousin's street and number.

I trudged on stupidly, mechanically, numbly. The excitement aided by the stimulant of the ocffee and sandwich, and the alertness of my watching for Mamie, wore away at last. I realized I was footsore from hours of tramping on almost the first pavements I had walked In all my country bred existence. As a final hope I turned again toward the mussly little lunch with the twink ling sign, the only place of refuge I knew, to ask if I might sit down and rest a while. The sign shone like a harbor light ahead of a derelict as I made toward It.

The bell that had struck 8 away back at the end of the day, rang a loud, clear one, now." The winking "Lunch" winked, then suddenly became a mass of shadow and the pie decorated window beneath it showed only blackness. My mind grew almost as blank as the darkened sign. The crowd that had gone so gaily homeward had left only stragglers, who eyed me, as the folk of this city had eyed me all day. Some spoke to me men but I stumbled on straight ahead. Tet where could I go without one cent, unacquainted with the directions, even the extent of the place ignorant of a single resource of a woman in a big city.

Mrs. Ford! Suddenly as if another beacon light gleamed ahead of men I thought of my friend of the Summit Hotel. I set the valise with its burden of work clothes down on the stony pavement and out of my emptied purse drew the card with the address, a street and number that meant nothing to me. hut it gave me hope to pick up my bur den again and go on to find that street. The stragglers straggled fewer, all men whom I was afraid to question The lighted shops I had left behind the buildings had begun to change to tall dark factory like structures.

Then out of the gloom across that thoroughfare that grew more desert ed every step, loomed a big rat policeman, standing looking at me. Frightened to dumbness I scurried on, wavered, turned back and called across to him. "Please tell me how to get to this address." I said, going over to show the card. "It's too late for a train." he returned with ominous import. "Go back two blocks and take the trolley going that way." He waved his hand, north, east, south or west, 1 didn't know.

"I'm going to walk," I replied: "how far Is it?" "Way beyond the limits," he looked at me in stupid astonishment. I shifted my valise to the other hand and started on in the direction he had indicated. can't walk there" he called, "Why don't you take the car?" I stood still, my back to the ques tioner. Then I said over my shoulder, "I haven't any money and I'm going to walk." The footsoreness and the weariness of the miles and miles of pavements seemed to cry out in everv fibre of me and overbalanced my fear of that represen tative of the law. I turned back and said, "If you'll lend me ten cents I'll pay it back when I get work.

"1 11 gamble that mucn on you. he said as he handed me the money. It was years later that I came to know how many persons, especially women, acquainted or unacquainted with the big city, borrow money from policemen on Just sucn stories as mine and forget all about It. I started on once more. The bell that seemed to follow me through the night sounded 2, and must have roused some thought in the sleepy head of that officer, used though he was to lone women wandering o' nights.

"Hey," he called, "folks expect you my tongue stumbled a confession. "How long have you been in town?" "All day," I called back in a tone meant to assure him of my good intentions. "Say," he said coming close to me now," if you don't know the city and haven't any money, you've no business to be trying to rind your wav this late. Maybe those folks have moved. You'd better come to the station house for the night." Station house! Vaguely I knew the meaning of that terrible term.

I stiffened my body and gripped my valice tight. My protest woke the echoes of that deserted street. "Are you going to arrest me?" REFLECTIONS OF EVE'S DAUGHTER In law, a man is considered innocent until the court adjudges him guilty. In marriage life he Is often condemned by his wife without a hearing. These are the days we search vainly for that rara avis the woman who is perfectly satisfied with her spring wardrobe.

Speaking of life's little irritations, there's the discovery that moths have taken up their abiding place with us for the summer season. ABOUT inn 12 14 urn AITERATIOXS FREE Bright Hardware Building.

The other guests liam and Tommy, 9 and 11 years old; her brother, William C. Herron, of the department of justice, and Mrs. Herron; Miss Maria Herron. of Cincinnati, sister of the bride; Miss Helen Taft, niece of the bride; Henry Lippitt, and Miss Francis Lippitt, son and daughter of tne bridegroom. Former President and.

Mrs. Taft, brother in law and sister of the bride, were not able to be present. Senator Lippitt and his bride went away immediately after the ceremony and probably will be absent a month. Senator Lippitt's Washington home is at 1730 street. Just a block from the home of the bride.

He has been a widower for about six years. His first wife was Mary Bowen. Mr. Lippitt maintains two yachts, and is a member of the New York and Larchmont Yacht Clubs. He is a cotton manufacturer and one of the wealthiest men in the Senate.

The bride also is wealthy. Mr. Lippitt's term cf office expires in March, 1917. He succeeded the late Nelson A. Aldrich, the Senate leader in 1911.

Mrs. Laughlin made her first visit to Washington when she was an infant, brought there by her parents to visit President and Mrs. Hayes, their distant relatives, at the White House, and to be christened there. This was a triple christening, as not only this infant daughter of Judge Herron, of Cincinnati, but the Presidents young daughter, Fanny, and his youngest son, Scott Russell Hayes, were baptized at the same time, December 20, 1S77, the date also of the silver wedding anniversary of the President and Mrs. Hayes, the first to be celebrated in the White House.

Little Miss Herron was christened Lucy Webb, in honor of the first lady of the land. Miss Helen Her ron, now Mrs. William H. Taft, also was present on that occasion. The Herron children always called Mrs.

Hayes "Aunt Lucy," and were de voted to her. Mra Laughlin was not at the White House often during the regime of her brother in law, as she was in deep mourning the greater part of the time.

QUIT MEATSIF YOUR KIDNEYSAGTBADLY Take tablespoonfnl of Salts If Back hurts or Bladder Bothers Drink lots of water We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble.

The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the elimina tive tissues clog and thus the waste is retained In the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism In bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys BY GEORGE RANDOLPH CHESTER AND LILLIAN CHESTER CHAPTER n.

"Ned!" It was a pathetic little figure which turned appealingly to the scowling young man. Her big eyes were full of tears. It was all a mistake, dear!" She choked back her tears, and there was a tense silence, in which Ned Warner stood with cold eyes and folded arms waiting. "Oh. Ned.

can't I make you see and understand?" And there was a piteous wistfulness about her. "Wo were all so happy on that day of our wedding, so happy as we started on our honeymoon trip! And when we stood alone in the Pullman drawing room, surrounded by our white ribboned luggage, there seemed to be no cloud in our sky!" "Then why did you leave me?" Ned Warner's voice was harsh. "It was the money!" Her lip trembled. "Don't you remember when I missed my purse? The porter came in just then, and you gave him a When he went out you gave me $30. and in just the same gemerous way you gave it to the negro.

The difference was $29." They were all startled by the force of the comparison. Only Gilbert Blye smiled, and the smile did not escape Ned. "Do you. remember I cried and you put my head on your shoulder? You thought I was tired, but I cried from humiliation. I felt like a beggar.

I realized that for the rest of my life I would have' to accept gifts of money from you. Then I dreamed about it. I dreamed that I was a piteous little beggar, always holding out my palm for alms; that I was receiving pay for your wife, Just as mother paid Aunt Debby and Marie. Both Aunt Debby and Marie sniffed sympathetically. "And last of all I dreamed that I was be ing dragged home from the altar by a ring in the nose, as the savages of old dragged home their brides.

And when the train stopped and woke me up I couldn't stand it. I threw down your) money and ran from the train." "To meet this man!" interrupted Ned sternly. "Gilbert Blye waa waiting on the station platform at Tarnville." and he noted that June looked at him in surprise. "Hold on there!" Gilbert Blye spoke sharply. "I was waiting, but for a New York train.

I had been to our Tarnville factory. I saw this beautiful girl on the platform and thought immediately what a good motion picture subject she would be. I was right. She screens perfectly." And he smiled approvingly at June. "So you were strangers, remark ed Ned, and there was an implied sneer in his tone.

"You helped her on the train, and I saw you in the car talking with her!" "Oh, yes!" and June brow clear ed. "I had sold my watch to a fun ny old lady on the train to pay my fare. Mr. Blye bought the watch from her and very kindly offered to let me repurchase it whenever I found it convenient. He gave me his card; that was all." "All!" Ned thundered.

"He chased you from the train in a taxi, and I followed, but I lost you both." FEAR OF INSOMNIA Are you afraid that you will pass a sleepless night? If so, let us see how we can dispel the fear. I don't ask if you are suffering from insomnia that is a simpler matter to handle. It is usually due to physical disturbance. It is the fear of insomnia that Is sometimes so stubborn. The sufferer from this fear generally feels the attack coming on during the evening.

He is tired, overwrought. He has a hard day's work to do next' day. To undertake it he must be in fit condition he must sleep. If he doesn't sleep, things may go very badly with him. Sometimes he takes sleeping powders, or hot baths, or a light lunch, but these things do not always dispel the fear.

He may finish up by sleeping eight hours through, but he has already gone through ail tne suffering of insomniphobla before this relief comes. Or, one may get to sleep at the proper hour and wake up about 3 o'clock in the morning. Instead of turning over and thanking Providence for a nice bed and a clean conscience, he begins to think of that hard day's work before him and then comes up his fear that he is not going to sleep any more. He counts the hours that he has slept and subtracts them from the hours he should sleep, and, as the clock ticks on, the hours he is missing seem fraught with awful consequences. Now what can we do for this unfortunate case? First of all we learn that passing from conscious existence to sleep is controlled by the subconscious brain cehters or nature, just like the functions of digestion and breathing and.

like all these natural functions, they are best performed when thought leat of. If we are eating an appetizing meal in pleasant surroundings, with cheery company, we are not troubling ourselves much with the process of digestion, and we may quite safely draw the conclusion that the process of digestion will not trouble us. If our thoughts are buoyant, uplifted, courageous, if we are walking with head erect, chest expanded, our breathing is natural, deep, regular sufficient for all physical needs. We need give it no more thought. The same is true of sleep.

The baby has no fear of insomnia, neither has the healthy youth, unless he has been taught it by perverted grownups. Secondly What is there to be "I did not!" Blye heatedly retorted. "I Jumped in a taxi and tore straight for Cunningham's hotel," and he turned to the white mus tached man for corroboration. "We were due at a dinner party that night and were to stop at Mrs. Russel'8, where all the girls of the company boarded." "And I went straight to Iris!" added the aggrie ed June.

"Indeed she did!" heartily agreed Iris. "She told us she had left you because you had given her money." And Bobbie Blethering was still profoundly perplexed. "You remember I came out to the house for June's purse." Iris turned to Mr. and Mrs. Moore.

"She wouldn't even let us lend her money, because she had a principle about being independent. When you and Ned chased in and drove poor June from one house and Ned found Gilbert Blye's card in her glove, then it was all off!" "When I slipped out of Iris window I had mv purse, but no June pathetically remembered. "So I went out home to Brynport and stole mv clothes and Marie. "Why did he go to Brynport at the same time?" Ned glared savagely at Blye. "It was an inspiration." Gilbert Blye smiled suavely and stroked his black Vandyke with his long lean, white fingers, and his black eyes glowed.

"We had just formed tne Blye Stock company at the dinner party. Mr. Edwards," and he nodded to the heavy man with the thick lidded eyes, is our financial backer, Mr. Cunningham," a nod for the white mustached man, "is our lean ing actor, who has also an interest in the company. I showed them the picture of the beautiful girl in the watch.

It had given me a great idea for a motion picture play. "The Run away Bride!" They were delighted with it, but we had no girl of the type." "Wasn't I the jealous little party?" laughed Tommy Thomas. "I was to be the only leading lady of the Blye Stock company." Gilbert Blye favored the vivacious brunette with a pinch on the ear. "I remembered hearing Mrs. Warner tell the old lady on the train that she must earn her own living.

I was certain that she would screen well. Why not. get the. original her oine of the idea? Edwards and Cun ningham were enthusiastic. I had her address in her watch.

I jumped in Cunningham's limousine and hur ried right out. to Brynport." "And we reached the cafe Just in time to chase you." Bobby Blether ing was beaming with eager interest. He was piecing together a puzzle which had baffled him. "When Ned found your card we went to your house, and your wife told us you were at the dinner party. "My wife," and a shade of annoy ance passed over Blye's dark, hand some face.

i "And on the way in from Brynport my taxi broke down," June went on, "Mr. Blye appeared out of the darkness as if by magic and offered his limousine." (To be Continned.) on How to be Healthy? afraid of? What harm will result from a sleepless night? If you have any improper physical habits, try to correct them. Then go to bed like a little child and you will sleep. If for any reason sleep does not come promptly, or, if you wake later in the night, there is no cause for alarm. There are a lot of pleasant, improving thoughts not business or worrying ones with which the mind may well be occupied in the stil! watches of the night.

It rests with you to direct the thoughts. It takes practice and persistence to keep the mind on pleasant themes, but it is one accomplishment which yield you greater returns in Ufa than any I know. Do not attempt silly mental gymnastics like counting flocks of imaginary sheep, jumping over imaginary fences. Don't get worried for fear you will be used up and unable to do efficient work the next day. Such fears have as little substance as she sheep.

Keep a storehouse of pleasant memories that you can call on at such a time. From this storehouse may come the recollection of a poem you learned in childhood, a beautiful picture you have seen, some pleasant friend you have met and loved the memory of beautiful music or some kind, sweet thoughts of others. We should be able to dis place the fear thought with another ihoueht strone enoueh to drive away the first and interesting enough to drive away the first and interesting enough to hold our pleasant attention. We are too prone to live in the personal and material. That is why fear and worry thoughts get in.

Get acquainted with your own deeper, truer self. Get in touch with the infinite. Let the troubles of the day pass into nothingness. Lay up courage, hope, faith for the morrow. Take up some constructive mode of thought that shall make you better, bigger, stronger.

A little loss of sleep will not harm you if you are relaxed and in an easy frame of mind. Once you cease fearing insomnia, you will relax more readily.

When sorrow wings thy gentle heart, Oh, wilt tbou let me cheer three By the treasure of my soul? And that's the love I bear thee; I swear and vow that only thou Shalt ever be my dearie." Of course, we all know that a man cannot escape a good many annoyances when he enters the conflict of winning a wife. Arrive at any conclusion that he may like a sensible young man in this quest will know that the majority of girls are not to be had just for the asking.

In other words, those whom he would choose among many for a wife would not be willing to be won by him. No young man should have the presumption to extend his calls one evening after another, enjoying a congenial girl's company, if there are no telltale words on his lips that he is well interested in her and favorably inclined to tell her the old, old story if agreeable to both. He may miss his guess of winning her while he is studying all of her good points and those he would not be suited with. Talkin most of his time while there to either her mother, father, or some elder member of the family might gain him their friendship and a.id his cause, but what would the daughter be doing while he was championing love's campaign those hours he spent in winning their golden opinions? She could not interrupt their long drawn out arguments; there was nothing for her to do but to fold her hands in her lap, smile and look wise. If he suddenly drops off from his visits without rhyme or reason the old folks and the family will wonder what has detained him.

They honestly believe that he could not find a home which possessed greater attractions. Suddenly ceasing coming to her home subjects the young lady to much annoyance and speculation which she cannot solve. Some would be wife winners have no confidence in the impression they could create if they tarried beneath a girl's roof too long. Laughing too much or making sarcastic remarks which a young lady would undoubtedly take offense at, the young man has been warned to look out for as his besetting rock of failure. Calamity of this kind he has studied how to prevent.

He follows out his dilemma by taking his prospective ideal to an exhibition one a fair another, a show, places of amusement, thus filling in all their time until they reach home tired, minus a change for conversation, let alone so much as a thought expressed regarding their future. How to win a wife is for a man to sit down alone and put the question to himself as to how he would be won were he in the young woman's place. Let him follow faithfully every situation that would tend to arise; the kind of courtship that would prove responsive for both. If the fact was agreed by each that he and she was a lover of home, good children, devotion for one another, and regard for taking car of both essential to happiness, then can guarantee unto himself that he has chosen the right one and can go' ahead and win her heart and hand.
