Miss Sargeut sat down by the desk
In the office and wrote upon one of ber
cards: "I understood that yon were to

She had aa impulse to underscore the
last word, so that he might know that
the mistake was not in the hour, but In

As a matter of fact, be was going to

"The Janitor gave me no message."
said Mies Sargent coldly.
La molne raised both bis clinched
bands above his bead.
"I'll break Jim's back!" he cried.
"Often have 1 forgiven him, but thin
time he dies. Now please take my key
and let yourself in"
"But I thought other ladles were to
be there," she objected. "I did not
know you asked me alone."
"They may not have come yet." re-
piled Lamolne glibly. "And, anyhow,
it doesn't make the slightest difference,
There's not a reason an this earth why
you can't come to my studio.'
And he proceeded to adduce the most
unanswerable arguments with such elo
quence that within five
minutes the pretty little
Puritan was tripping
merrily toward the Car
rot, with the latchkey
clasped In Lcr fingers.
"I Just remember,"
aid Jim as she entered
the building, "that Mr.

I'm glad you came back.

"I have the key, replied Helena as
she stepped into the elevator. "I met
Mr. Lamolne upon the street."
It was not the first time that Helena
had been in Lamolne's studio, but on
the previous occasions there had been
half a dozen people present, and she
bad really not had a chance to look
around.
It was an elegant and an interesting
apartment, but her Inspection of it last
ed only about a minute, for she found
nersclf standing by the writing table
and reading without in the least mean
ing to do so this, upon a dainty card:
"Thursday, 11:30. 1 can't wait for you
now. Come to Tessa s at half past 12.
Don't fail, G. W."
It was the merest chance that she
should recognize the writing of Miss
Grace Wlthlngton, with whom she had
tho slightest possible acquaintance, but
she bad seen a page of the young lady's
manuscript from a story
that Lamolne was Illus
trating.
"So this is the Very
important matter! "said
Helena. "And he ex

Is perfectly funny!"
And she began to cry.

A messenger boy waa Just coming in
with a note for one of the tenants. It

"It's of no consequence," she said. "I

luncheon now."
"Let's go to Tessa's," said Farns
worth.
He was feeling sore because Miss
Wlthlngtou had broken an engagement
with him, as he supposed, thanUa to
Jim, and he was glad to meet a pretty
girl who would take the loneliness out
of blm and restore bis self esteem' by
making tne casual observer turn u:i

Helena like a special providence; for
Farnsworth, the tenor, was eminently
a swell young man to. look at So they
strolled toward 'Tessa's, but upon the
way they stopped at a piano man's,
where Farnsworth made an elaborate
complaint about the instrument in his
studio.
Meanwhile Lamolne found the $10
which he needed and hurried back to
the Carrot
"Is Miss Sargent up in the studio?"
be asked of Jim, whom he met In the
hall.
"No," .said Jim. "She's gone out I
guess she s gone to
Tessa's. I heard ber
ask a mesueiiger boy
where it was. I guess
you'll find br and Mr.
Fa rnsworthover there."
"Her aiid Farns
worth!" nveated La
molne. "Well. I like
that! What makes you
think so?"
But Jim was busy
remembering some
thing and made no reply.
"That mitn Farnsworth," said La
molne s he took bla way toward Ten
sa's. "ueeds correction. H Is getting
to be a pig."
AVhen he reached the Bohemian res
taurant, he met Miss Wlthlngton at tu;
door. It happened that the young lady
bad no money, a circumstance of small
consequence In Bohemia when oue Is
invited to luncheon, but of pressing Im
portance when the invlter fails to ap
pear.
"Come in and lunch with me," cried
Lamolne, delighted at this meeting.
"I've got $10, and we can spend it all
if we want to."
Bliss Wlthlngton laughed, for the reg
ular luncheon costs 50 cents At Tessa's.
But she accepted the Invitation with
avidity, hoping devoutly that Farns
worth would appear and find ber In the
company of the handsome and elegant
Lamolne.
They had no sooner taken their seats

Helena appeared Here was the great

One man refrains from breathing

Is even more foolish than the others, i:

Each man of course must regulate
for himself the amount of cold , air
which he "can safely take Into hi
lungs. No man should ever brentu
through his mouth under any circum

It has to do. It separates the air from:
its impurities, dust and so on and can
at will regulate the supply admitted to

If you leave a hot room and go Into

little through the nostrils until you no
