THE PUNISHMENT
By JANE JORDAN.
Copyright, 1121, Wiitan Nwipapr Vsioa
Coralle looked down into the street,
a frown puckering her pretty brows.
Bobby was due an hour ago and his
present unreliable attitude troubled
her. Not two months since Hr. Robert
Hempstead, whom she met at her
aunt's tea party, had been all prompt
ness and eagerness. Now she realized,
In humiliation, it was usually she who
suggested their evenings together, snd
Impatiently awaited his arrival,
Coralle was vastly proud of her lov
er's growing success. Sweetly submis
sive, apparently, to bis profession's
call. But there was more than all this
in Bobble's embarrassed evasions.
Lily, the old colored woman who bad
been Coralle's nurse and was still a
privileged adviser, came to pat her
adored one's hair.
"Honey," she comforted, "don't you
go an' fret 'bout Uintah Hempstead.
He's boun' to come round all right,
though be Is kinds mixed up In his
'tentlons.
"That's all 'count of that playin'
friend of tils what everybody's crazy
"bout. Women, you see, honey, sort of
turn that unit leal man's bead, till be
don't think much of any of 'em. I
hear him an' Mlstub Robert talking
the evening you was out, an' the sing
In' niun came over here after bim, an'
he Buys to Mlxtuh Robert to go slow,
that gettln' Into marriage was easier
than gettln' out; and marriage was
mostly a mistake anyways to tempera
mental folks like them, an' Uintah
Robert he seemed sorta uncertain, yet
bellevln' like, as the two went away
together.
"Reckon he ain't really done sur
rendered yet, Mis' Coralle, for all bis
lovlu' of you."
The black eyes twinkled.
"An' this j ere maneuvering 'round
Is hurtin' him more than it hurts you,
honey lamb."
Coralle went forward to meet the
tall young man who came at last, con
fidently, through the doorway. This
time there was no excuse.
"Coralle," Bob Hempstead said ab
ruptly, "I'm going away. Just time to
make my train. Signed up with the
business office in Chicago for two
months, Goodby, dear," the last words
grudgingly.
"Why goodby, Bob," answered Cor
alle, her tone was quite even.
"You see," he burst out, "I may as
well he frank. I've been growing al
mighty foud of you lately too fond;
I'm not In a position to marry. So"
Bob floundered hopelessly "I thought
I'd better go away."
When he had gone Coralle stood con
sidering, then an odd little smile
twisted her Hps.
"So.thls Is the Influence of the "play
ing man.' "
"Well, he will have to be punished."
Coralle took down the telephone re
ceiver. "Please," she asked sweetly of the
masculine voice that answered, "may
I speak to Mr. Raphael Vernon? This
Is Mr. Vernou? Coralle Richmond
speaking. You may remember my
name. Yes, a friend of Bobby Hemp
stead's. I would like very much to
talk with you concerning this new
business venture of Bobbie's. Tou see,
I am much Interested. Could you
spare an hour to me this evening. I
know Robert values your advice so
highly. I, ton, would like your opln-

ion. The twinkles deepened in Lily's
black eyes as her nursling turned,
dimpling, from the telephone.
"What dresa yon -all gwlne to wear
for this ebenlng, hooey T she asked.
"lie one you looks mostest like so
angel In Is the plain white wld de big
blue sash."
Robert. Hempstead missed Coralle
more than he had believed possible.
Chicago, though a big and busy place,
seemed strangely lacking In entertain
ment. Also, away from Raphael Ver
non's caustic offerings, marriage ap
peared to be far from the undesirable
thing he had made It Bob began to
figure Industriously regarding bangs
lows. As he plaintively hummed "The
Love Nest," and wondered If Coralle's
eyes would be as blue In reality as
they had been In bis dreams. Of ber
forgiveness because of his silence be
was sure. Hsd Coralle not always
awaited bis coming? So Robert Hemp
stead took a trip back home.
Lily admitted him to the pretty
apartment rooms which were Coralle's ,
borne. She wss at the piano, Lily told
him, practicing a new song.
Bobby slipped in unannounced and
stood pressing his fingers In boyish
fashion over the girl's closed eyelids.
"Guess who?" he Joyously whispered. '
Coralle's loved laughter rippled forth. '
"Why," she answered softly, "It's
Raphael, of course."
"Raphael T he sharply repeated the
name as she turned to face him. Slow
ly but eloquently Coralle nodded.
"Raphael and I are engaged to be
married, Bobby," she announced.
Limply the man sank Into a chair.
"But Raphael scorned marriage," Rob
ert repeated dully, "said he did not
believe In love."
"That," Miss Coralle happily In
formed him, "was because be knew
nothing about it Since then he has
met me, and honestly changed his opin
ions. You did not lack opportunity
for knowing better."
Robert Hempstead, going out the
door, met the musician coming in, but
his glance of bitter condemnation was
lost upon the eager Raphael, whose
own eyes were bent upon Coralle's
smile of welcome.

PAINTED IN FIVE MINUTES
London Newspaper Tells of Meritori
ous Pictures Made Quickly by
Traveling Artist
While great painters hsve spent
weeks perhaps months on a simple
study, s young artist is turning out de
lightful views of the sea and country
In fire minutes, says London Answers.
Impossible as this sounds. It Is a
fact, and the artist m question Is Al
bert Cronkshaw of Manchester.
It was an extremely dull day, with
dark clouds overhead, when a crowd
of holiday makers stopped to watch a
smart looking man, mounted on a plat
form, transforming a plain piece of
canvas into a marvelous scene of beau
ty. Every one forgot the dark, gloomy
atmosphere as they were transported,
first, to a beautiful spot In North
Wales, and then to a picturesque cas
tle. And It was all done In 10 min
utes. Tbey were pictures to be proud of,
too, painted with taste snd an eye to
the artistic. Aa fast as they were
painted so were they sold to the ad
miring audience.
There Is no doubt that there will be
a great demand for "rapid" artists In
the near future, when we get some of
those promised houses built, and un
doubtedly the economical housewife
will be on the lookout for good, cheap
pictures to beautify the walls of her
domain. She need search no further
than the traveling artist, who will com
plete a picture in live minutes and
charge less for It than almost any art
dealer.
Here, too, Is an opportunity for any
discharged soldiers who are artistical
ly Inclined. In a neat little hand book
Issued by the traveling painter they
will Una all the businesslike methods
explained clearly and simply. It Is a
really useful short cut to rapid paint

Development of Industry In That
Country Makes It Second Only
to the United States.
The production of motion pictures,
says the United States commerce re
pert, Is an Industry for which physi
cal conditions In Italy and the Italian
temperament are peculiarly favorable,
and consequently this branch of activi
ty early attained a high degree f de
velopment Italy now claims to rank
second to the United States among
the nations of the world in the manu
facturing of motion pictures. An Idea
of the Importance of this Industry In
the economic life of the country can
be derived from the fact that the work
ing capital employed Is now estimated
st 300.000.000 lire and the actual capi
tal Invested at 100,000,000 lire. There
are eighty-two companies engaged in
the production of films, of which the
greater number are located at Rome,
which naturally presents unusual ad
vantages from the scenic standpoint
The annual production of new films
in Italy has reached 1,600,000 meters,
and If It Is estimated that forty copies
are made from each negative the total
of printed films Is 64,000,000 meters.

Bathing and Health. '
The Hebrews, Hindus and Moham
medans, as a part of their religion,
are required to keep the body clean
by frequent ablutions and baths and
this has had a far-reaching effect up;
on the healthfulness of those people.
When the Roman empire fell, the mag
nificent system of baths, which Its
people had snd used for cleanliness
of body, soon lapsed Into decay. Only
In Spain, under the Moors, was the
system of bathing kept up. There, to
conform to the religions rites of Is
lam, luxurious baths were maintained,
but when the Moors were expelled the
misguided pious people razed to the
ground these remnants of heathenism.

of the neolithic age.
