PARKER'S DYE WORKS Wo THE CONFESSIONS OF ROXANE (By Frances Walter) I MAKE AN UNUSUAL (Copyright, 1916, by the McClure Newspaper Svndicate) "Where is Sylvia?" demanded Ed ward, \ when our conversation had reached this stage "WwW } you concealed her?" "Sylvia is safe," I told him is in' her bedroom resting after the excitement of meeting you I told her to remain there until I returned, and to be sure that she did I locked the door and brought the key with me." He looked at me as though thought I was not quite sane, but I went on, calmly. _"To one who had gssociated with Sylvia as intimately as I have fo several months it would be very evi dent that, in spite of what had hap pened,-she is a perfectly pure woman The plight in which she finds herself is not the result of wrong-doing on her part. You are the guilty person. It was you who told her that you would be married, or if you did not tell her that in so many words you led her to believe t%at she and vou were actually married, and that whatever took place between you was eminently proper. The sin rests at your door, Mr. Edward Blake, and the restitution must come from you." "But 'I have told you that I was perfectly willing to care for her, and that I would marry hér as soon as ¥ could. Is not that sufficient?" "No. Sylvia's good name is not the only thing involved.

"Of what value would such a docu- | ment be to Sylvia?" "It would have a two-fold value.

The document which I pro- pose you shall sign will be a guaran- | tee at least of Sylvia's innocence." | He was thoughtful for several mo- | ments. | "And ir I do not sign this docu- | ment?" | "Then I shall act in the best in- | terests of Sylvia, regardless of the | consequences to you."

J -------------------------- Alkali In Shampoos Bad for Washing Hair -------------- Don't use prepared shampoos or anything else that contains too much alkali, for this is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The dest thing to use is just plain mulsifiéd cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats anything else all to pieces. - You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the-hair with wa- ter and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required! It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly and rinses out easily.
