WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE.
Enid Monroe, young daughter of a cultivated New York family,
has been loved since school days by Ned Grier and Dick Grant.
The two boys have been chums, and the friendship grows with the
years. Enid favors Dick.

CHAPTER II. <
|HERE they come!” Dave
shouted, proud of his
team and his friends on it.
Enid, her face flushed, sat very
still while the crowd roared. Dur-
ing each tense play she tried to
watch the boys and single them
out of the mass of arms and legs
when the referee blew his whistle.
Then—some one was hurt.
Could it be? Every one waited.
They took his helmet off. There
was Ned's> light hair plastered
against his* head. fhey helped
him off the field. Enid shivered
and hoped he wasn’t hurt badly.
Poor Ned—what a terrible game
this was!
The band played between the
halves and every one stood up
and stamped feet. It was getting
cold.
, Then came the team. They
were playing again.
Only a little while to play now.
Oh, there was a man lying on
the ground—the team had ad-
vanced the ball and there he was
lying—like a wounded soldier un-
able to carry on.
She saw the coach and doctor
rush out oft the field and bend
over him. The team came back
and huddled around; then they
carried him off. A cheer like
thunder arose: “Grant—Grant

Dick—oh, Dick! Her heart
stood still. $he could scarcely keep
from crying—Dick' unconscious!
The pain must have been terrible
to have made him faint like that.
Where was he hurt? What was it?
If she could only run down out of
that grandstand to him! Were
they caring for him—and had the
pain stopped?
Enid did not see the rest of the
game. She was startled when it
was over and the boys’ team had
won.
Coming back in the train she
was strangely quiet. Two news-
paper men sat behind her.
“Say,” one of the men tex-
claimed, “that Dick Grant is some
fellow. Do you know that he
played for ten minutes with a
broken wrist and never let on—
for fear they would take him out?
Imagine it. He’d have finished the
game if the pain hadn’t knocked
him out, I guess. I call that
nerve.”
“Grier got hurt, too,” said the
other.
“Grier won’t take it, I under-
sand. He hasn’t got guts. You
noticed he quit in the first half.
Grant’s the boy.”
Enid thought they would never
get home, and she was sorry they
were going to the theatre that
evening. Dick—s u f f e r i n g and
nothing but rough trainers and
rubbers Cb care for him—dear
Dick.
So the girl 'dreamed back. .Then
her thoughts leaped into the daz-
zling future. She was seventeen—
and was going to the Senior Ball.
It had seemed strange to Enid that
Dick made no more effort to see
her alone. Of course, the boys
called on her together when they
came to New York for their va-
cations, but Dick always came with
Ned, and at parties she would
dance first with one and then with
the other. Was there an agree-
ment between them, or was there
simply a deep loyalty which pre-
vented one or the other from as-
suming the role of the devoted?
Down in her heart she knew
that both young men liked her, and
often in their letters she could feel
that they wrote with restraint. And
what a strange thing—every other
boy whom she knew had tried to
kl£s her and make love jto her!
She know she was attractive to
men. In fact, the telephone rang
nil day. “Could she go here and
could she go there?”
“You’ll wind up by marrying
Dick or Ned,” David, her brother,
once said. “Wonder which it will
be!”
“Ridiculous,” Enid laughed
back. “They’ve never been mushy
p not to Know tneir style.
Enid swung her little foot back
and forth a shade faster, opened
her pretty red mouth, wherein she
placed another large chocolate,
and speculated quietly to herself.
Dick—or Ned? How strange it
would be if she had to make up
her mind! Of course, Ned was
handsomer—he
wavy ligkl|^fijKirV-and looks
counted ’in^nose clays to Enid.
And he was of her own people,
too—eastern New York. Kind of
homey—and so funny, too. He
could always make her laugh.
But what was it about Dick,
great big, dear old Dick, with that
shock of black hair which wouldn’t
stay in place and which he was
always pushing back out of his
stern brown eyes? Something in-
side of her jumped as she thought
of the first night she had met him.
What a kid she had been and how
frightened for fear she would be
a wallflower and have to pretend
to enjoy sitting with her mother
and the other chaperons on the
sidelines.
Ned had invited her. She was
to be his guest. Rather peculiar
Dick hadn’t said anything.
Though she did not know it, it
was chance and chance only that
had prevented Dick from inviting
Enid to the Senior Ball. He had
dreamed of inviting her, and had
anticipated the pride he should
feel when he would take her up to
the receiving line and introduce
her. How beautiful she would
look as she marched in the grand
march with him!
Enid—he had never invited a
girl to a prom since he had been
in college. He would give her the
distinction of being the only girl
he ever invited to a dance.
One early Spring day, when he
and Ned were lying out under a
tree near the fraternity house
waiting for the afternoon classes
to begin, Ned said:
“Going to take anybody to the
ball?”
I thought I would invite Enid,”
Dick 6aid.
“I thought I would myself,’’ said
Ned. He hesitated a moment.
In fact, I mentioned it to her at
Easter, I think.”
“Did you out and out invite
her?” asked Dick.
“I don’t remember. You know
how you say those things.”
Dick was dumfounded.. What
a disappointment! He’d just had
his car repainted, too, so it would
be smart when she arrived. But
why did Ned add that “I think”?
They smoked for a little while
in silence, then Ned said:
“Well, what are we going to do
about it? We’can’t both ask her.”
What would they do? At least,
they should each have an even
chance—since Ned had put it that
way, Dick thought.
“I’ll tell you what we can do,”
Dick replied. He reached in his
pocket and brought out a coin.
“We’ll toss up,” he said.
“Good,” agreed Ned. j __.
“Heads or tails?”
“Heads,” Ned chose.
Dick looked at the coin—ft was
a half-dollar. He snapped it be-
tween his thumb and first finger.
It shot into the air and glistened
in the sunlight as it twirled down
to his open palm.
He looked at it. There was the
woman’s head with Liberty on her
crown and the date below it.
“Heads,” Dick said, smothering
the fierce disappointment which
he felt as he gazed at the classic
head on the coin.
And Ned, trying to disguise hi3
delight, said:
“I ean’t say I’m exactly sorry,
Dick. Luck was with me that time
—but, of course, it had to be tough
on one of us.”
“That’s all right, old man,” Dick
said, rising from the ground and
brushing his coat.
“Sporting propositions you
know. She’ll be ycurs for the
evening.”
There was a big family of chil-
dren, and as soon as Pearl was old
enough to get her working papers,
she got out of it. There was not
much fun in pushing your little
brothers and sisters, and there al-
ways seepied to be a new one to
push up 4°d down fhe streets in a
baby carriage, wishing in vain for
—and not getting—a pair of
spike-heeled slippers when you
were dying for them and had
pretty legs.
Business school? Not on your
life. Trained nurse? Takes too
long. Shop-girl? Talk to women
all day—nix!
One day she saw an ad for a
^uch beautiful girl needed in the check:room at
‘ j i--*-- the hotel. Just the thing. Why.
waste time on a lot of college boys
when you might meet some dis-
tinguished commerical traveling
men?
And for eight years Pearl had
kept to her post and to her resolu-
tion as to not wasting her time on
college boys. But one rainy Spring
evening when big Ned Grier, the
left tackle on the team, had left
his coat before going into the grill
for dinner, she thought she’d look
that young man over when he
came out. Grief—some good-look-
ing blond kid. all right, a regular
sheik, and they said his old man
had a ton of money, too. Their
names were alivays in the New
York papers. Might not be bad.
He had a car, too, a snappy road-

She waited, smiling as each man
came out. receiving her tip with
an extra smile as she slipped it in
the pocket of her little lace apron.
Pearl was a pretty little thing.
Ned admitted afterwards that she
was a blonde because she lived
near a drugstore, but. neverthe-
less, those golden curls were
pretty. Against her neck cuYled
some little ringlets—he saw them
when she reached for his coat.
It was .that night, when she
reached up as she held his overcoat
for him, that she let her hand rest
on his ihoulders for a moment. In
that moment—accidentally, oh,
yes, entirely unconsciously, for she
was only helping him on with his
raincoat—she stood so close to hin;
that he could feel the outline of
her figure against his back.
Ned went to the grill the next
night for dinner.
Good evening, Mr. Grier,”
Pearl said as she took his hat and
coat Ned was flattered that she
knew his name.
It didn’t take him long to eat
his dinner. He ordered something
that was ready, and as he came out
of the grill to the coat-room he
wondered if he would feel her lean
against him. It really wasn’t cool
enough for an overcoat, but he’d
worn his just to have her hold it
for him.
Tonight she did more than lean
against him; she- pressed against
him, and when Ned turned around
to take his hat his face was flushed.
“What’s your name?” he asked,
looking down at her.
Just then another man came out
and handed his check to her.
“Excuse me a moment, Mr.
Grier,” she said. The nod of her
blond curls also said, “Don't go.~
After she had given the man his
coat and hat she returned to Ned.
“What did you say your name
is?” he asked again.
“Pearl—Pearl Jackson.” /
“What time do you get through
here?”
“The grill closes at ten,” she
replied, lowering her eyes.
“Want to go out to Kelly’s with
me .
“Oh, thank you, Mr. Grier. But
I have a date tonight.”
She was meeting a gentleman
in “the.gents’ furnishing line,” and
she’d told him where he could get
some gin. She came right back at
Ned, however, “flow about Sun-
day?” Then the other gentleman,
with his sample cases, would be
gone.
“Fine,” said Ned. “I’ll be out
front at ten in the car. He looked
down at her. Sunday was a long
way off. Then he said:
“Don't call me Mr. Grier. Call
me Ned.”

“grippe.” call it what-jyou may,
but in just what guise" it is im-
possible to state. Because last
year's outbreak was in most in-
stances mild, there remain a large
number of carriers, who conse-
quently provide the possibility for a
recurrence of the dread disease.
Under any conditions we may ex-
pect a return of the more preval-
ent respiratory diseases, such as the
so called common cold, bronchitis,
bronchopneumonia, and pneumonia.
The early symptoms of the common
cold very closely resemble the be-
ginning of measles, whooping cough
and influenza and for this reason
these diseases are very likely to be
overlooked until they have become
well established and have had an
grees, while the temperature of our
sleeping rooms should be anywhere
between 50 degrees Fahrenheit and
freezing point, the nearer to freez-
ing the better.” Strive to keep
physically fit, as by so doing you
may offer the highest possible re-
sistance to disease. Do‘not fail to
have proper food, suitable clothing,
reasonable exercise, and a sufficient
amount of rest and sleep.
When a cold is contracted, try to
immediately overcome it. Often a
hot bath and going to bed and re-
maining in a more or less uniform
temperature for a day or so will
bring relief. In many cases
will mean a saving of time
possible a serious illness.

heme; hence the necessity for try-
ing to impress on every one the
fact that there is no such thing as

Colds are extremely contagious,
almost as much so as smallpox and
there should be taken the same pre-
caution of quararffining the afflict- j
ed person. The artificial atmos- I
pheric conditions under which p
most people live largely influence
the frequency of all forms of colds.
Ventilation is one of the most im-
