HAD a shooting estate about 20 miles from Berlin, one that I-could reach by automobile in 45 minutes from the door of the embassy. Because of the strict German game laws I had better shooting there than within 200 miles of large cities in America/ i There seemed to be something to shoot there almost every day'of the year. On May 16 the season opened for male roe—a very small deer. About Aug. 1 the ducks, which breed in Northern Germany, can be shot. These were mallards, and there were about 2000 or more on a lake on my ) preserve. We usually shot them by digging blinds in the oat fields, shooting them after sunset as they flew from the lake to feed fm the newly harvested grain. The season for Hungarian part- ridge opened on Aug. 20. These were shot over dogs in the stubble and in the potato fields. After a few weeks partridges became very wild and we’then shot them with a kite. When we had put up a covey out of range and marked where they went down in a-potato patch or field, perhaps of lucern or clover, a small boy would fly a kite made in the form of a hawk over the field. This kept the partridges from flying, and they would lie while ite dogs pointed until we put them up. By Oct. 1 pheasants could be shot; English pheasants become wild. . These roosted in the trees at night and so escaped the plentiful foxes. Later on came shooting at long ranges, after they had collected in bands, of the female roe deer and also the hare shooting. Rabbits were shot at all times, and in November and December and January on foggy days it was not difficult to get Coprright or little huts of twigs erected near. places where the ground .was. beaten hard, and on these open, beaten spots early in the morning the “birk- hahns” waltz, doing a peculiar backward and forward dance in some way connected with their marriage ceremonies. There were also on this estate numbers at times of a curious bird found only in Spain, Rumania, Asia Minor and these plains of the Mark of Brandenburg, a large bus- tard called by the Germans “trappe.” These birds were very shy and hard to approach. Although I had several shots at them with a rifle at four or five hundred yards, I did not succeed in. get- ting one. In talking with the Chancellor he almost al- } ways opened the conversation by asking if I had yet killed a “trappe.” As a rule the German uses for shooting deer and roebuck a German Mauser military rifle, but with the barrel cut down and sporting stock with pistol grip added. On this there is a powerful telescope. Many Germans carry a “ziel-stock,” a long walking stick, from the bottom of which is a tripod can be protruded and near the top a sort of handle piece of metal about as big as a little finger. When the.German sportsman has sighted a roebuck he plants his aiming stick in the ground, rests the rifle on the side protection, carefully adjusts his telescope, sets the hair’ trigger on his rifle and finally touches the trigger. ey At the commencement of the war the Duke of Raitbor collected all the sporting rifles with tele- scopes and sent them to the front. These were of the same caliber as the military rifles,and took the military cartridge, so they proved enormously useful for sniping purposes. a Peasants Rarely Poach Game" a. — 600 inhabitants, men, women and children, and of these at the time I left Germany 110 had been called to the colors. In the neighboring town of Mittenwalde, of almost 3000 inhabitants, more ‘than 500 had joined the army. ‘ At the commence- ment of the war the population of the German empire was about 72,000,000, or something over, and applying these same proportions it will be seen what a vast army was created. In industrial districts where men are required for munition work perhaps not as great a propor- tion has been called. The name of the village on my estate was Gross Machnow, the road from Berlin to Dresden ran through it and oftily a few miles east was the shooting place of Wusterhaus- en, where the favorite shooting box of the father of Frederick the Great was and where he was ac- customed to hold his ps eT tobacco parliia- ment, when, with his cronies, over beer and long. pipes, the affairs of the nations were discussed with great freedom. The horse races in Germany are ecstaktaink. There are several tracks: about Berlin—the Hop ten, devoted almost exclusively to flat racing; the Grunewald, the large popular track nearest to Berlin, where both steeplechases and other races aré held, and Karlshorst, devoted exclu- sively to st@plechasing and hurdle. racing. —— [fo L Racing on Strictly Honest Basis t | —— : ne The jockey club of Berlin is the Union Club, which owns the Hoppegarten track, Its officers are men of the highest honor and in no, country in the world are the races run more honestly, more on the level, than in Germany.

Between these attitudes there are many farm- | ers who are going about their business of raising | food crops and cotton without feeling that they | are bearing the burden of the world, or without | much falking. These are the farmers who have come to appreciate the worth of organization. These farmers attend farmers’ institutes ar- ranged by the county, agent, instead of the semi- political farmer meetings arranged by men who wanted to be paid as political leaders and who want prominence. These organization farmers know that if each farmer will tell his county agent, postmaster or other recognized agent. of, the State or Federal Government that he needs 6né or two ora dozen farm workers, likely he will get them. This farmer believes that the official labor agents whe are asserting that “there is a person for every job,” know what they are saying is true. The Federal Government has an extensive or- ganization to supply farm labor and each State has an organization working in conjunction with the Federal agency. Just now, Labor Commis- sioner Lewis of Missouri is sending word broad- east that he can supply labor for all planting needs if the farmers will only tel] him how much help they need. But the farmer who, this year, waits for someone to come and ask him for work, is going to be a grumbler for many years to come. aa ao & SF Just as we are ready to unpack apd oil the electric fan the price of coal drops 30 cents a ton. ‘ i SEAT Sea PACS deine BUSINESS ANNOUNCEMENT.

PATIENCE WORTH. ee | In steadfastly refusing to let any of our national - publications run the war for it the Government is about as sound, we fancy, as it has been in anything since we turned our attention to world affairs. What the Government foresees, of course, is that to turn the war over to any one of our publications would only be to unite all the others against it, a condition which might easily be fatal to popular government in this part of the world. Our publications must understand this, and not rush to the conclusion that the various plans they have for running the war are looked upon Written for the TENE by Clark McAdams Dear Mr. McAdams: When you turn hell looge on the earth you are apt to feel the fire. By way of comforting the Kaiser, we. offer him three verses written by George Morrow Mayo, a young Kentuck- ian, formerly resident in Washington, now a gunner’s mate in the United States Navy: Here’s to the Blue of the wind-swept North, When we meet on the fields of France! May the spirit of Grant be with you all As the Sons of the North advance. Here’s to the Gray of the sunkissed South, When we meet on the fields of France! May the spirit of Lee be with you all As the Sons of the South advance. And here’s to the Blue and Gray as one, When we meet on the fields of France! May the spirit of God be with us all, | As the Sons of the Flag advance. Haldeman of the Louisville Times says these verses are the masterpiece of the war. JOHN R. BODDIE. =. mr Lea’ What Trotsky can do now is write another book correcting the delusions in his first book. The trouble with Trotsky is that he saw too much wrong with the world as it is. That is the mistake of all radicalism, Or pretty much all of it. It looks out on the work thoughtfully as if the world had never before been looked out on thoughtfully.

The visitors to the different winter resorts will soon be wending their way back home and as Easter comes early this year—March 31—the post- Jenten affairs will have an earlier resumption than usual. Weddings and en- gagements have fallen off to a notable degree, even ‘‘ war weddings;’’ but it ENEFIT affairs were the chief B interest of society last week, starting on the recital at the St.. Louis Woman’s Club by Estelle Neuhaus, plianiste, and J. Howe Clifford, Shakespear- jan reader. The club was almost fill- ed to capacity and part of the pro- ceeds are to go to the war charities of Edith Wharton, the novelst, in France. Another recital will be given tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock at the same place by Miss Neuhaus and Mr. Clifford for the game purpose and an equally fash- jonable gathering will be present. Tuesday Miss Ellanore Scott of 23 Portland place gave a bridge party for the benefit of the North’ Side Headquarters of the American Fund for French Wounded, of which headquarters Miss Scott is the chair- man, and who is one.of the most enthusiastic charity. Thursday the Red Cross benefited from a concert at which Mrs. Martin-Lammert was one of the principal soloists. She was assisted by Max Steindel, first cellist of the Symphony Orchestra; David Earle, pianist, and Tyrie Lyon at the or- gan, and it was both an artistic and financial success. Friday night and Saturday. after- noon were the first of the series of the moving picture benefits at the Lorelei for the St. Louis Maternity Hospital. part in the sécial lHfe of the « city this season, more 50, perhaps than usual, owing to a lack .of dances, parties and the like. The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra has been a source of much needed pleasure and the audiences have been representative of the social world. Only two more pairs of the regular concerts remain for the season and only two more “pops” after today, and it is hoped to make them the largest and most fashion- able of the winter. The Schumann-Heink recital on Friday evening at the Odeon will bring out a large gathering, as Mme. Schumann-Heink is one of the most popular artists who visits the city. Among those who will entertain on that occasion are Messrs. and Mmes. F.C. Rand, E. A. Keiselhorst, Philip N. Moore, B. F. Bush, Henry W. Peters, William H. Lemp, Mrs. New- ton R. Wilson, Mrs. I.. W. Morton and Mrs. Howard Watson. Many large parties have been arranged’for the lower floof, among them a party of 10, with Mr. Adolph Meyer as host. O week in a fashionable way will be the Pageant Choral Society’s concert on Tuesday night at the Odeon, when the chorus ,of 200 voices and four solo artists from the Metropolitan Opera company of New York will sing “The Golden Legend,”’ accompanied by the Sym- phony Orchestra. ‘This concert will close the year for the Choral So- clety, and though not a gay one, use of Lent, it will be one of the most important musical events of the year and will bring out a large and representative audience.

GUILD, are making arrange- é ments for a bridge party to be given at the Buckingham Hotel’on Friday, April 5, the pro- ceeds to be used to put an old lady in an old people’s home. The Book and Flower Guild is an organization which accomplishes much good in a quiet and unostentatious way among its 20 members. It was organized several years ago for the purpose of helping the sick poor by visiting the city institutions and hospitals and sending magazines, flowers and delicacies to them. Since that time the work has ex- panded and while the original plans are still carried out, its scope has so enlarged that two young girls have beef educated’ at a business college so that they are now self- supporting, and another one is soor. to ‘be given the same opportunity. One old lady was put in the “Home for the Friendless,” besides many poor families have been cared for and celluloid jackets’ have been given to several invalids in one of the hos- pitals. In this .time when most of the public’s thoughts are centered on the young manhood of the coun- try those whose years are almost passed must not be entirely forgot- ten and it is hoped the proceeds from the. bridge party on April 5 will enable at least one to be made comfortable for the rest of her life. The officers of this organization ere Mrs. A. A. Flanders, president; Mrs. F. W. Jackson, vice president; Mrs. H. H. Evans, treasurer, and Mrs. A. L. La Vigne, secretary.

I acted as one of Miss May’s witnesses at the Standesamt, where the civil marriage was per- formed, while the religious marriage took place in our embassy.

M., where salvarsan and many other medicines*used in America are manufactured, as well as dyestuffs and chemicals. In my other earlier book I have described presentations at the Royal Prussian Court in Berlin, especially the great court called the “Sehiep- pencour," because of the Icng trains, er achleppe, ‘worn by the women. All of the little kingdoms and prin- cipalities of the jJerman empire have somewhat the same _ cere- menies. In Dresden, the capital of Saxony, a peculiar custom is fol- lowed. The King and Queen sit at a table at one end of the room play- ing cards and the members of the court and distinguished sf{rangers file into the room, pass by the card table in single file and drop deep ‘curtsies and make bows to the seated royalties, who, as a rile, do not ever tdke the trouble to glance at+those engaged in this servile tribute to small royalty. I suppose that the ex- euse for this is thet it ia an old cus- tom. But so is serfdom!

The statement of principles is in part as follows: “The Civic League concerns itself with matters of municipal legisla- tion and administration. It is inter- | ested in the laws which are made | for the city and in how those laws , | are administered. | “It is opposed to all laws which are enacted fn the interests of spe- _cial groups or individuals, at the | expense of the general public, and | stands for those laws which are de- signed to secure the rights of all or promote the welfare of the many. “It maintains that in every city there are forces and individuals con- stantly at ~work endeavoring to sc- cure the passage of laws especially |'in thefr favor, and the league pro- | poses to remain constantly on gyard in opposition to the enactment ot such. legislation. “This is the Suitnenianned princi- _ple upon which the Civic League | proposes to base all its work. | It | asks all citizens to unite with it. | “¢(A) To work for those measures | which are designed ‘to promote the welfare of all the people. **(B) To oppose all measures, laws or practices which are designed to ‘ benefit or enrich a few at the ex- pense of many.” | The league outlines some of the! methods by which it will endeavor | to put this principle into practice. ‘1. It will carefully look into the recogsd of all candidates for public | office, publishing the facts for the guidance of the voters of the city, in order that they may be able to judge | of the merits arid abilittes. of candi- | dates, and of their, intentions to | serve all the people or a favored few. “2.

Before endeavoring to answer these questions it is éssential that we should first look the im- mediate effects of the Russian coNapse squarely in the face. Germany has been freed from an Eastern peril, she has not merely gained half a million good solaiers for: Western warfare, but she has gained vast quantities of Russian material andthe freedom to concentrate all of her own artillery and munitions and most of the Aus- trian, upon the western front. .Further than this, she will .presently, by next autumn probably, begin to get considerable food supplies from Rus- sia’ and be relieved of-her. greatest danger, that of famine. Finally, there has been a real resto- ratian of German morale and at least a tempo- rary hardening of German purpose to derive profit from the west in the shape of indemnities and a perpetuation of German control in Bel- gium. ‘All these are solid facts, and all of them serious things for the Western Allies. [ Looking Into the Future } ~ But looking at the future, hal has the world to fear from the German successes in the east? Will the*Slav be Teutonized? Can the Germans impose upon more than 100,000,000 Slavs a rule that will make the Slav the servant of the Teu- ton and the agent of Teutonic conquests all over the world? ‘Will Germany in the next, war, about which.some of her Generals are already glibly talking, lead millions of Russian recruits across the Rhine and the Meuse and down the Euphrates and the Tigris? 7 Nothing seems more unlikely, becalise the Slav problem does not hold out any promise of such a solution, even in the minds of the more thought- ful Germans. The great achievement, which may last for years; has beem the abolition of the Rus- sian menace, which has weighed apon the German mind for two cebturies, ever since, by the peace ‘ ( of Nystad, in 1721, Russia reached the Baltic and Peter the Great seized Riga. German hands are, because of this Russian disintegration, freer for dealing: with other questions. But even here there is a sharp limitation. f ’ Chances of Russian Rally First of all, what is now going to happen in Russia?) Obviovsly. there\may be an uprising of the Russian. people like that which followed the complete conquest of Spain by Napoleon in 1808 and 1809. When he had swept the Iberian Penin- sula from the Pyrenees to the Straits of Gibraltar and placed hjs brother on the throne in Madrid, Napoleon was suddenly faced Dy the spgntaneous uprising pf the Spanish people, which in the end | made.the Spanish adventure almost as expensive as the campaign to Moscow and: next to it: the g blunder of the Napoleonic’ epoch. Kt is possible, but. extremely unlikely, that the Russians may now rally to defend their country, to defend. it’ by the same ‘sort of guerilla warfare 7 sekianaaidiedie. In such a case there -| will be ever-increasing demands upon German | man power, just as ‘there were upon French man . ‘ sso ot and there wiil be, also, an end of Z : ig 3 ¥ Sieg See, oe dk Beata: Sse all hope of dfawing provisions from Russia, those foodstuffs whtich are the one vital need of Ger- prseceenbaienad uy ‘This ig the possibjifty # for the allies; it is the best TM LIrkruANIANS —— Political Frontier ----Language Frontier. Race pea language frontiers of Russia the chances of such an uprising are relatively slight. Failing such a revolution, such an uprising of the mass of the Slavonic people, what may come? Plainly we may see the German troops go to Petrograd and there re-establish some form of autocratic rule, possibly replacing the Czar upon his throne, conceivably putting some other Rom- anoff in his stead This would, in a measure, follow ‘the course of Napoleon in putting his brother upon the Spanish throne. But it would far-more nearly resemble what;would have oc- curred had Europe been able to defeat the French Revolution and put.a member of the French royal family on the throne in the last decade of the eighteenth century. ~ f If Czardom Should Be Restored ] a A Romanoff thus ted would owe his throne to a German interference, he would at once be an object of hatred by the mass @f the nation who had adopted revolutionary doctrines and by that other and only less important element which would oppose the complete domination of all Russian policy by German influence. It would require.German armies and German efforts, con- stantly exerted, to maintain such a dynasty and it would always be threatened“by overthrow either by the. democratic or revolutionary ele- ments, by the nationalistic party or by a fusion of both. In any event, German attention and German resources would constantly be concen- trated upon the maintenance of a Russian situa- tion, hateful to the Russian people, and, if his- tory is any measure, bound in the end to col- lapse as the Napoleonic regime collapsed in Spain and the Hapsburg in Italy. “ On the other. hand, the Germans may adopt a more modest and less ambitious course. They may content themselves with liberating South Russia, the Ukraine, and constructing’ buffer states ‘between themselves and the Great Rus- sians. These buffer states would naturally. be Pdland and Lithuania, but to gain the necessary protection for herself, against possible am descence of Russian strength, Germany would news | to control the policieg of both Poland ‘and Lithu- ania and each of these states would be governed ). not in the interests of the people living within their frontiers,-but in the interests of Germany. This, in its turn, would lead to just the situation which existed in: Northern Italy in the first half of the last century, when a number of minor states were maintained by Austrian bayonets. —_ yy [ Polish Menace to German Aims me 7 Polish question, too, is complicated by many other circumstances. The ideal German policy would be to erect states of Lithuania and of Poland, which should be grateful to her for their liberation and naturally allied with her against the future Russian danger. But Germany can never expect a friendly Poland. The reason is simple: Within her own frontiers Germany holds nearly 4,000,000 Poles. They. represent her share of the former Polish partitions: These Poles desire to be joined to their Russian and Austrian brethren in the new Poland, which is now to be created. But this is an impossible de- sire, so far as Germany is concerned, not alone because it would mean the surrender of 20 or 30 sa oN square miles of German territory, including the _ industrial districts of South- ; meet . whatever destinies might lie before him. I thought, as I re [==] PO LES which spell future disaster for Germany. ern Silesia, but also because it would meam iso- lating a million and a half of Germans living in East Prussia.» Between the German-speaking people of East and West Prussia an arm of Poles stretches north to the Baltic at Dantzig, and the possession of this outlet upon the sea is essential-+- for real Polish independence. ‘ For all future time, then, unless Germany is compelled by later wars to cede her Polish dis- tricts, @he Poles and the Germans must be foes and.all Polish ambition must be directed toward aiding in the overthrow of Germany and the re- lease of the Prussian’ Poles.

It represents an alliance of the liberal powers, of the democratic nations. Italy has already escaped from German con- trol, Austria has no further reason to remain under German direction, now Russia has collapsed and has no desire to be associated with Germany in permanent hostility to the Medi- terranean nations, with whom, ex- cept for Italy, she has no rivalry. 9 The fall of Russia deprived the western nations of a great ally but they gained the United States, and we shall at no distant date vrove a useful substitute. On the other hand the collapse of Russia has paved the way for the escape not alone of Aus- tria but of Turkey from German con- trol and, in the longer view, this Rus- sian breakdown, so real a disaster to the Allies at the moment, ma; turn out to be a final evil for the German, even if William II does not meet in the Slav state that resistance of the or less derefential key, with which it is the royal lot to be surrounded. And his methods are very clever. He has a trick of starting a subject by suddenly expressing a view, prob- ably rather a startling view, and pos- sibly not at all his own view, in or- der to hear what yop have to say. He is much more interested if you disagree with him than if you agree; and I am sure he takes a sly pleasure people, when the Government and throne has failed, which eo found to his permanent injury in Spain. In any event we, the Allies, have hed our maximum of injury in Russia and we should not permit the German to weaken our morsle by further exploitation of the Rus- sian episode, which is finished so far as we are concerned, although not impossibly om beginning for the Really, I have no doubt as to the result of the trial. Courage like his can bend almost infinitely, but it can also stand firm as a well-rooted tree in the storm. , And the storm is coming.

She said: ‘*For two years I niiiiesd from rheu- It first started in my back and spread to almost stairs. My ankles and knees were swollen and for a few months I was unable to bear any weight on: them. ‘*My condition got so bad that | went to the hospital and stayed there for some time. On returning home I was confined to the bed for six months. About one year ago friends did not believe I would ever get over this terrible disease. I was com- pletely exhausted and worn out with suffering. . **At the time I commenced to take Var-ne-sis I was in bed and had to be assisted. After taking Var-ne- sis for some time I saw a marked im- provement, gradually the pain and stiffness left me and today I am able to do light house work without any trouble. I feel -100 per cent better than when I began to take Var-no- sis. W. A. Varney said: Var-ne-sis is a simple vegetable preparation that has been highly suc- cessful in the treatment of chronic rheumatism of the joints. Var-ne- sis¢ does not contain salicylates, iodides, pepper or capsicum. Var- ne-sis cannot harm the heart anid tends to help the stomach.

Varney, Lynn, Mass., or at John- in the ‘embarrassments of those who desire, but are afraid, to disagree with him. And he is successful in his method. At the end of a con- versation he will probably know much more about you than you know about him. But there shines through his in- tercourse, certainly as I have found it, a certain preference for the truth, even though it may not be agree- able, which courtiers are perhaps not very quick to gratify. It is difficult for an ordinary person, to whom the sources of information on things in general are open and who ap- proaches them by the common access, to realize the difference between his views of them and that of a mon- arch, to whom they are always in- terpreted in the light of his own po- sition. The very minds of men are as difficult for him to know as the streets of his own capital. Both are self-conscious in his presence; they are turned, as it were, to him, and present the aspect which they deem suitable. He sees everything in full face, and nothing in profile. He hardly ever overhears or overlooks; what he hears is spoken to him, what he sees is pra@pared for him to look at. The King of Spain is perfectly aware of this royal disadvantage. and does what he can to overcome it, partly by seeing as many different kinds of people as he can and partly by the exercise of his own very con- siderable intelligence. It is his char- acter, moreover, to be sympathetic; and this, too, has its pitfalls, for in matters outside his immediate know!l- edge he is readily open to persua- sion. - Perhaps too open, for he seems sometimes to be influenced by views and jdeas the basis and origin of which cannot be really congenial to his own candid mind. “Spaniard First, Then King.” It is possible, indeed, that in some things he is too modest. Where his own instinct or judgment would be a true guide to him, he seems at times to act on the advice of those whom he possibly feels to be better informed than himself, and besides whose judgment he perhaps deems his own to be insecurely founded. The fear of acting indiscreetly is always being instilled in the mind of the occupant of a throne; but King Al- fonso is in a unique position, in which he can do more to _ influence his country by his own character and ex- ample than any other among the diminishing number of constitutional! monarchs. We talked about this one day, and he was remarkably frank and Spain, there is no doubt about that; more than once in our talks he has clear-minded about it. He loves his | It is often threatened; I have seen him in one moment, when it seemed imminent, and found him ready to meet it with the smiling gravity, the calm but alert courage, that has vis- ualized the worst that can happen and finds it neither terrifying nor unbearable. tit canta os by cals G & GENT @ CO.

My hands were very sore and stiff, my knees troubled me a great deal so that it was impossible to go up or down said: “Remember, "I am a Spaniard first, a Spanish soldier next, and a King’’—or a pro-this or anti-that— ‘‘afterwards.”’ His first anxiety is to do wisely and rightly for Spain; how to do it and wherein wisdom consists is naturally not always clear . The army is what he knows best in Spain. Military science has been his special study, and in his role of soldier he takes himself very seriously indeed. But the millions in his country are necessarily cut off from him personally; between their lives and his life, their diffi- culties and his difficulties, is inter- posed a peculiar system of Govern- ment, over which, in fact, neither they nor he have much actual con- trol; although I like to think that the crowds of poor people who loaf all day in the sun in the very sha- dow of the palace walls, who bring their meals there and play their games there, symbolize an intimacy that exists in the heart, even if it finds no other outward expression. Don Alfonso has this attribute of kingship; that in more than one respect he is in advance of his peo- ple. In this attitude towards sport, for example he comes nearer to the English ideal than possibly any other Spaniard. He has little use for the kind of sport that consists in looking on at bull-fights and bet- ting on pelota matches. He loves the active role. In palo his is a courageous, dashing, hard-riding, and rather rough game, variegated by a streak of stunt shots. In polo, as in motor-driving, it ig the dan- ger and the pace that he loves. He fs one of the best partridge shots living and an implacable killer. Here also it is peace that he loves and the danger—in this case to:the partridge. Believes Idle Rich a Menace. I once said.to him that the real danger to a King in his position lay not in the poor people who had not enough to eat, not in the strik- ers against economic injustice, but in the idle young men of the ipper classes who do nothing, sacri- fice nothing, create nothing for the good of their country. “I quite agree with you,” he said and proved it by telling me of some of his schemes for training and inducing this idle class to take some real part in the work of the country. His influence on them can only be for good; but it is an appalling task even for a King to undertake almost single-handed—the reformation of a whole class. But here also, wheth- er’: he succeeds or not, it will not be for lack of courageous effort. Of course, we talked of the war; but here he asked questions more than expressed opinions, and I can honestly say that on no occasion did hé say anything as to where his private sympathies lay. But I am entitled: to my own opinion, and it was of a nature to make me like, and not dislike, telling him about the war as I have seen it by sea and land. . His courage is perhaps the noblest and the most conspicuous thing about’ King Alfonso. It is courage of the very finest temper.

Leeived a letter from President Wik- jof the National War Finance Com- ' } : : ‘Southwestern Division made a rec- Pn mas gS NEWCANPAIN FOR RED CROSS FUNDS WILL OPEN MAY 20 Goal Is $100,000,000, Same as That Set in Drive of Last June. MANAGER iS NAMED John L. Johnston Designated by President to Supervise Work of District. The American Red Cross has spent nearly all of the $100,009,000 collect- | ed last June and preparations are under way for a second campaign to raise a similar fund for war work. The War Council announced yester- day that the date for the campaign, originally set for the first week in May, has been postponed for two weeks and the drive will begin May 20. This action was taken to avoid intereference with the forthcoming Liberty Loan. John L. Johnston, president of the German Savings Institution, soon to become known as thé Liberty Bank of St. Louis, has been chosen by Presidént Wilson as manager of the campaign. He already has ~taken offices at 1906 Railway Exchange Building. Joseph Dickson, an at- | terney, will act as executive secre- | tary for the campaign. The selection of Johnston as man- | ager of the campaign was made be- | cause of his record in the Christmas, membership campaign, which result- ed in adding 22,000,000 members to | the Red Cross. In this campaign | theh Southwestern division, com-| prising Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas, led all divi- | sions. After the campaign closed another was started’ for enrolling | the school children of the country | in the Junior Red Cross, and the re- | sult is that nearly 40,000,000 new members have been put on the rolls | of the organization. Before the Junior Red Cross campaign ends, it | is expected that virtually every pu- | pil in the public and private schools | of the country will have joined the | Red Cross. | Successful Campaign Looked For. “We confidently expect that the campaign on which we are starting will be more successful than the campaign of a year ago,’’ Johnson said. ‘“‘Last June when the other drive was made the War Council had been appointed only a few weeks and the organization was in an em- bryonic state. But in spite of this $105,099,257 was raised. The Red | Cross refunded ‘$17,006,121 to com- | nrunities for local relief work. Of | the balance, $77,721,900 has been appropriated, more than $30,000,000 being sent to France. A ‘‘Fhis leaves a balance of $106,371.,- 000 available, which will not last long with work being’ done on the vast scale wé are conducting at present. There will be little need to explain | hereafter just what the Red Cross is doing, for the people understand The Red Cross provides layettes for unborn babies that may never see their soldier fathers and it also cares for the bod- ies of those who may sacrifice their lives for their country and for civi- lization. From the cradle to the grave there is no form of relief that the Red Cross does not extend, no suffering that it does not alleviate: “In the campaign a year ago the ord of which the people have a right to be proud. Look at these figures of the sums contributed: Missouri, $3,- 531,000; Arkansas, $741,000; Kansas, $3,058,000; Oklahoma, $620,000, and | Texas, $1,492,000.” | Executive Committee Appointed. Johnston has appointed a man | from each State in the division as a| Conrmnittee. These representatives are: Kansas, S. E. Cobb, president of the Bank of Topeka; Missouri, L. Ray Carter of T. W. Carter & Co, st. Louis; Arkansas, J. R. Vinson, president of the Southern Trust Co., Little Rock; Oklahoma, L. E. Phil- lips, president of the Ba rtlesville Na- tional Bank; Texas, Hugh E. Pra- ther, capitalist, Dallas. Field agents also will be appointed They will devote their Campaign managers for three-fourths of: the 700 local chapters in’ the division also have been appointed to look after the work in the various cities) and towns. Chairman Johnston yesterday re gon asking him to serve as a member mittee. The President wrote: “The close co-dperation of the American Red Cross with the mili-/ tary branch of the Government has suggested many new avenues of help- fulness in the immediate business of our organization for the business of war, but in the present situation there are unlimited opportunities of broad humanitarium service, and the effective performance of this service is necessary in itself and in its rela- fion to our master purpose of win- ning the war. “The experience of eight months. of the demands made upon the gen- erous patriotism of the American people, merely emphasizes the ne- cessity of concentrating the work of relief in one mein organization , which can respond effectively and universally to the needs of humanity under the stress of war.” ¥ SO AT EL ——— —-- — —- ——--—-- ee = $1 Cash--$1 Per Month Entitles You to Membership and This Big : 20-PTECE Fine Aluminum Cooking Outfit (Exactly as Here Shown.)

OLD QUESTION REVIVED Chamber of Commerce An- nounces Plan for ‘“Standard- ized Form’? of Pronunciation. Saint Looie or Saint Lewis? Shall the ‘s” in the old French King's name be sounded, as in “‘sas- safras,”’ or be silent, as in ‘debris?’ The Chamber of Commerce an- nounced yesterday that it would re- open the question of the pronuncia- tion of the city’s name, which was supposed to have been settled at the time of the Pageant and Masque, nearly four years ago. In the Pageant and Masque, which was a civic celebratron of the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the city’s founding, “Saint Loote”’ was adopted as the official pronun- ciation, and all actors and singers who had to speak or sing the city’s name were warned not to sound the final ‘s” in “Louis.’’ General publicity was gfven to this fact at'the time. And after the Pag- eant and Masque most of the people of the city, including the Pageant actors, went right on saying ‘Saint Lewis,” just as they had always been accustomed to do. merce say they have had a number of inquiries from other parts of the United States as to this matter of pronunciation. In seeking an au- thority for a reply, the Chamber questioned former Judge Walter B. Douglas, president of the Missouri State Historical Society, and Arthur E. Bostwick, librarian of the Public Library. Judge Douglas safd he preferred “Saint Looie,”’” and that the people of old families here follow that style, some of them also making the. ‘'t’” at the end of “Saint” silent. ‘‘More recent inhabitants, especially if they come from the North, sound every letter,” he said. ‘I think it is so taught in the public schools, where the idea ts standardization and ster- ie wniformity.” : Librarian Bostwick said that, while some persons of old families followed the style preferred ‘by Judge Douglas, “the enormous majority of St. Louisans pronounce ‘the ‘s.’ A newcomer who does not so. lays him- self open to the charge either of ig- norance or of pretending that he is one of the oldest inhabitants. .He is obliged, therefore, to pronounce the ‘s’ in self-defense.”’ Anyway, it-is announced that ;‘The Chamber of Commerce is planning to create a standardized form.’ It is not stated how, when it has created such a form, it expects to get people to follow it, Kreisler Retires Until After War. — NEW YORK, March 9 (Special).— Following the criticism made to his appearing in East Orange next Wednesday, Fritz Kreisler, the vio-, linist, yesterday decided ‘to retire en- PUBLIC. SEES MOTOR REVOLUTIONIZE WORLD “A wonderful spread has been made in the belief that the public has in the gasoline engine in its various forms of use,” said Stewart McDon- ald, vice president and general man- ager of the Moon Motor Car Co. of St. Louis. In cities the use of pas- senger cars, trucks and busses is in- creasing for time-saving, errands and transportation. On the farms, gaso- lite engines are used in automobiles, tractors, threshing machines, for churns, silo cutters and a score of other power driven appliances. In the army camps more than 31,000 mo- tor trucks are now in use in this country. In addition to the various types of motor vehicles, there are also aeroplanes, tractors, tanks and simi- lar gasoline driven equipment. “Just now: the American nation leads the world in utilizing the effi- cient transportation service furnished by the wonderful modern internal- combustion motor whieh saves coal and rail transportation and greatly »|inereases agricultural and manufac- turing production. “The changed attitude of the pub- lic mind toward the motor and the motor car are ‘due to this wonderful efficiency and St. Louis is just now getting into the limelight for the manufacture of efficient motor cars. { look to the near future to bring St. Louis to the front as one of the lead- ing motor car manufacturing centers of the world.” A Post-Dispatch lost ad will re- store the lost article if it can be tirely from the concert stage in this Offieials of the Chamber of Com- country until after the war. restored.

Secretary Willis Johnson has charge of the entire party. Several of the athletes ar- rived On the scene early yesterday, among these being Allen Sothoron and Grover Lowdermilk. Jimmy Austin, Johnny Tobin, Lefty Leifield and George Sisler already are here, all ‘of them, with the exception of Aus- tin, being permanent residents of St. Louis. The players who.will leave from here are: Severeid, Nunamaker, Low- dermilk, Sothoron, Shotton,. Wright, Glahn, Leifield, Sisler, Johns, Austin, Gerber, Maisel, Tobin and Demmitt. Trainer Bierhalter, who arrived here yesterday, also will be aboard. Fielder .Jones will have just 26 Players under his direction when the entire party reaches Shreveport.

The loss of Koob will be felt, but as all clubs have been compelled to make the best of the present try- ing situation, we can do nothing else but accept it. “I don’t mind saying that the pitch- ing staff depends almost entirely on Grover Lowdermilk.. If the big boy comes through the way he finished Inst season, it means at lenst 25 vic- tories from this source alone.

At the latter field,. the Ben Millers, who last Sunday eliminated the St. Teresas, will battle the South- ern A.

With the selection yesterday of Frank Bascom as referee, the last remaining detail of the champion- ship three-cushion match between Kilmer Farrar, the city title holder and Jaquier, challenger, was settled. The games will be played Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights at Arata’s. A total of 150 points is scheduled in blocks of 50 points nightly. The players are contesting for a purse of $50, the entire amount going to the winner. Each player put up $25 to make up the purse. An admission fee of 25 cents will be charged to witness the games, the proceeds, after expenses are de- ducted to be turned over to the Bil- liard Players’ Ambulance Fund. It is hoped to raise a good sum through the games. Farrar is naturally the favorite over Jaquier because he holds the title.’ wever, the latter. is con- sidered among the best players in the city and as breaks make up a big portion of the _ three-cushion game, he may be able to slip over a surprise on the champion. Thomas FULTON WILL FACE 715-POUND FOE Al COLISEUM MONDAY Tom Cowler, British Giant, Is 6 Feet 31 Inches Tall, and _Is Said to Be Good) “GLASS JAW” HIS FAILING Inability to Stand a Battering on Vital Point Has Caused His Defeat Four Times. Tom Cowler, convoyed by his man-. ager, Jack Bulger, looking. very much like a dreadnought being | towed by a tug, docked at a down- town hotel Friday night, prepara- tory to tuning up for his appear- ance, Monday, at the Coliseum, in an eight-round bout with Fred Fulton. | The big «British battleship went through a few training maneuvers yesterday and will repeat them to- day. In his workout Cowler caused a number of onlookers to wonder how in the world men like Frank Moran, Jack Dillon and Kid Norfolk ever reached a vital point with a knockout punch. Cowler, although not quite as tall, is physically as formidable a man as Fulton. He weighs 215 pounds, and if there is any surplus in his com- missary department, it certainly was not appanent in his street clothing. He rises to an altitude of 6 feet 3% inches above sea level, according to his own statement. He is symmet- rically built, agile and alert in movement, is said to be an extreme- ly shifty and aggressive boxer against competent opponents, and has a jaw as massive as Gibraltar. Four Men Have ‘Kayoed’ Cowler Strange to say, Cowler is by some credited with owning a “glass jaw,” like Jim Coffey. This belief was due to four knockouts within the last two years, Jack Dillon, Fred Fulton, Frank Morantand Kid Norfolk forcing him to take the count. Cowler himself says there is noth- ing to it and explains each and every instance. He said that he trained too far under his normal weight to meet Dillon and so weakened himself. Ful- ton, he says, hit him a lucky punch. He was careless with Frank Moran and too eager with Kid Norfolk, ex- posing himself to the good-night wal- lop needlessly. But most of the followers of pu- gilism, are content to rest the case on the’ records, in estimating Cowler; and therefore believe that he is un usually susceptible to a knockout wallop. Mike Collins, Fulton’s manager, de- clares that Cowler would be the best heavyweight in the game today, ex- cept for the weakness of his jaw, save for Fulton, Willard and possibly Dempsey Fulton Gets $1600 for Show. Collins yesterday said that Fulton had had a great week at the local theater where he has been showing. He will net over $1600, working on percentage. Fulton is also on a percentage basis for the bout with Cowler, Monday night. If the house is a fair one, his rake-off will be about $1000 and Cowler’s $600. On March 15, Fulton is scheduled to box again in ‘Joplin. Jim Coffey of New York was sought as his oppon- ent. Cowler, whom Fulton faces tomor- row, was 26 years old March 2. He was born in England and toured Au- stralia under the patronage of Jim Corbett, who at one time thought Cowler was the most promising heavyweight in the world.

The present one, of the vintage of 1900, is obsolete and re- quires constant repairing. . ” * 7 Principle, or Prosperity. NE big year might restore the Cardinals nicely; and this year may be 1918, O if Hornsby, Cruise, J. Smith, et al, are in line when the season opens. Without them, despite the management’s brave stand, it seems certain that disaster will follow. Probably $5000 would cover all the salary differences required to line up the delinquent Cardinal players. The club faces the necessity of' decidiag whether it is better to yield to pressure and save $50,000 by a $5000 invest- ment, or to remain steadfast to principle, refuse to be held up, and run chances of a season’s disaster. It requires a nice pilot to navigate the good ship Cardinal safely through this stormy environment. | * * * Here’s Another Brave Man. OT all the Amefican courage is being displayed on the Western front, N Home develops its heroes and martyrs as well as the battle-ground. In proof of which we may cite the case of Ed Bang, the Cleveland critic, who is already in the field with a prediction as to the finish of the 1918 pennant cam- paign. That’s heroism. If Ed were a rabbit, he’d attack a pit bull terrier; if he were the king of Denmark he would bid the other allied armies stand aside while single-handed he smote the Kaiser. Even Old Man Dope, who has been run down, backed over and bandaged oftener than any other dare-devil in existence, has side-stepped picking em for the coming season. Dope, just before the arrival of Fielder Jones, went into the bomb-proof, cut the telephone wires and barred the door from the inside. It takes a hero to analyze the 1918 baseball situation, since the analysis is made well nigh impossible by the uncertainties regarding the make-up of the teams after the second draft is called. . It’s as Good as Any. R. BANG’S estimate of the American League race is probably as good M as can be made, seemingly, in view of the war’s uncertainties.- It is based on the present make-up of the clubs and takes no account of holdouts or future draft requirements. It is as follows: No. 1—Chicago. No, 2—Boston or Cleveland. No. 3—Cleveland or Boston. No. 4—Detroit. No. 5—New York or St. Louis. No, 6—St. Louis or New York. No. 7—Washington. No. 8—Athletics. As a matter of fact there’s only one certainty about the list submitted. We will give you ONE guess at what it is. It ought not to take you long to get at the BOTTOM of it. As for the winner, that’s the next surest thing to the last place club. Comiskey has lost few players and none of consequence, The daring investi- gator and analyst did not have to worry much about the position No. 1. But in sorting the clubs from No. 2 to No. 7, inclusive, he must have had SOME time. * * » His alignment of the teams at the finish is interesting from a St, Louis standpoint. \ It puts the Browns ahead of Washington and gives thém a lookin, COLUMBIA, ~—a | State basket bal] ‘again won by | High School, when t ‘final game from ' ‘night, 49 to 36.

The oppositjon to Allen is led by Lamkin and by W. J. Thomkins, a Democratic politician in Kansas City. During the campaign before the last general election, Thomkins, who had been hired by the Democratic State Committee to organize the negro voters, wrote a »nersonal letter to each member of the committee, in| East St. Louis, had been in effect for which he demanded the removal of Allen and charged Allen with fail- ure to exert himself for the Demo- cratic cause. | | himself, said that he was of the opinion that the railroads had-no in- terest in the controversy .over the removal of the arbitrary, and that it was purely a fight between St. Louis and East St. Louis, which the railroads would do well to «stay out of. M¥anis’ position was that the rail- roads had no interest in where the money paid for their service came from, and that since the present rates, with the differential favoring many years, the railroads could not volluntarily move to change it with- out taking a part in the fight antag- | onistic to East St. Louis.

Before being elected president of | the school, Dr. Allen was vice presi- dent and a member of the faculty He and the president were succeed- ed by other men during the adminis- tration of Gov.

BANGS aR a Bia NS Ne an ae She Er 1 Ee Mp Tee Wireless to st l was navy night at the House- boat on the Styx and all the notable seafaring men among the Associated Shades were gathered together to discuss things in general. High Admirals, pirates, buc- caneers, explorers and other human flotsam and jetsam of the sea were there in force, crowding the capa- cious lounge to its full capacity, ready to listen to such words of nau- tical wisdom, reminiscence or what- not, as might fall from the lips of seadogs of high and low degree. Conspicuous among them were Capt. Kidd, Sir Henry Morgan, Sir Walter Raleigh, Archimedes, Themistocles, John Paul Jones, Columbus and Hen- drik Hudson. Everything had run along with tolerable smoothness un- til close on to midnight, when Noah, resplendent in a brand-new Admiral’s uniform, followed closely by his three sons, Shem, dam and Japhet, in the full regalia of Vice Admiral, entered the room. To say that they created considerable excitement is putting it mildly. The jaunty aspect of the venerable patriarch in his glittering habiliments, his three-cornered hat cocked coquettishly over his right eye, caused a commotion little short of a sensation. The fact is that while Noah was held by everybody in high esteem as a patriarch, most of the naval men present regarded his pretensions as a seafarer with a suspicion amounting to disfavor. “Noah a sailor?’ Leif Erickson had once remarked. “Why, the old lubber ban no more than a floater!”’ And, as in all naval controversies, the matter had been discussed with an asperity bordering upon actual conflict, the more punctilious seamen of the past being inclined always to make an issue of the situation. The old fellow and his sons had been blackballed three time by the Navy League, and his coming to this meet- ing, not as a member of the Associated Shades but in the capacity a real Admirol came dangerously near getting on the nerves of Nelson and Themistocles, who held to the old-fashioned idea, now fortunately grown obsolete, that a sea captain should know some- thing about ships and navigation. “Look who’s here!’’ ejaculated Capt. Kidd, digging Nelson in the ribs with his elbow. “If it isn’t old Pop Noah!” “Well of all the nerve!’ growled Nelson, his red face turning purple with in- dignation. “And strutting a |, followed closely by his three sons, entered the room. about in uniform, too—who in thunder ever made him an Admiral—Joe Daniels?” “I guess it’s a case of auto- suggestion,” laughed Kidd, who didn’t care very much one way or the other which way the thing went. “Well, if you want to know what I think,” said Co- lumbus, banging the arm of his chair with his doubled right fist, “I think he ought to be called down. The first thing we know, if every man who ever got into a boat is entitled to camouflage him- self up as a Rear Admiral, and doll up his kids in the duds of Vice Admirals, old Charon ‘ Noah and 4a —sonusD.

Great guns, Noah,’ he added, scornfully, “what ever put it into your head that that old scow of yours was a navy?” , “She was the queen of the ocean in her day,” said Noah, proudly. “If not a navy, what would you call her—a charity bazar?” “She was the fastest craft afloat, wasn’t she, papa?” put in Shem. “Aye, that she was, my boy; that she was,” said Noah. “And what is more, she was the only cruiser in the whole history of the sea who not only sailed the ocean blue, but skimmed the mountain tops as well. When any of you old sea dogs show me a battleship that can climb a tree as easily as my be- loved ark shinned up Ararat I'll condescend to answer your criticisms. Until then you're outclassed.” “And a prettier model never swam the sea!” ejacu- lated Ham. “She was the flagship of her time,” said Noah. “Of course, she didn’t have diamond-studded lee scup- pers like those remarkable gravy boats Ferdi- nand and Isabella embroidered for you, Columbus, so that you might collide with the idle rich at Palm Beach if you had luck; nor was she as completely fur- nished as the Mayflower, with her 47 highboys, 389 four-poster bedsteads and 8792 mahogany sideboards Noah. ‘“He’s only telling you the simple truth. Fact is, except for our- selves-and our cargo the world wasn’t anything else but submarines at that time, and, by George, Harry,” he added, turning to Nelson, “I can’t tell you what a turn it gave me the first time I sight- ed one of their periscopes the second morning out. I was feeling kind of tired after the strain of getting the expedition started, and was lying off on.a bale of hay just abaft the larboard stokehole, in front of the hy- ena’s cage, when Ham, who was stationed up on the mizzen conning roof—I think it was you, wasn’t it, Hamilton?” "Yes, dad,” said Ham. “It was my watch. The wind was blowin’ three points to the south of N. E. by 8S. W., when off to the left of the starboard strakes I seen a sudden splash. I immediately asked myself” “Never mind, son,”’ said Noah, with a wave of his hand at Ham, “I'll tell the story. All I ask of you is confirmation, and none too much o’ that. When there’s a full Admiral on deck little Vice Admirals should be seen and not heard. Let’s see—where was 1?” “You were LYING on or about a bale of hay near the hyena’s cage waiting for a laugh, no doubt, which is still coming to you, and which you’re going to get before the wind changes,” said Nelson. “Ah, yes—I remember,” said Noah. “I was enjoy- ing a well-earned siesta when all of a sudden I heard Ham's voice: ‘Periscope two miles to leeward!’ Mrs. N., who had been making me an oyster stew at the for’ard galley, in her ex- citement’’—— + . ™“ ~~, ~ “Excuse me for interrupt- ing,” put in Sir Henry Mor- gan, “but—ah—how many | oysters did you have on the ark ?’’ 7 “07 Z “Why, I don’t recall the Abid, ¢7 17 exact number,” said Noah, Fre em b= i Sls | “but at a rough guess I | = should say about 14 barrels of Blue Points, and as many more of Lynnhavens. Do you happen to remember low many there were, Shem? You acted-as Steward’’—— “No,” said Shem. “I can’t recall the exact number, but I know that you and Japhet and Ham and I used the shells for poker chips, and . we had enough to give us a ' himself will be puttin on airs and setting himself up as ° the head of the Stygian navy.” “Avast there, you landlubbers!”’ cried Noah, turning with a grin upon his critics. “What in Davy Jones’ locker are you muttering: about?’ “Nothing much,” retorted Nelson. “In other words —YOouU!” “Oh, really now!” said Noah, with a wink at Shem. “How excessively nice of you. I suppose you were trying as usual to belittle my achievement in bring- ing the Ante-Diluvian navy into port, just as you try to belittle every other naval achievement in his- tory but your own, eh?” “No, old man,” returned Capt. Kidd. “We were just wondering who your tailor was. He must be a James Dandy. Why, you look as if you'd just stepped off a Christmas tree.” “Ante-Diluvian navy!” ejaculated Columbus. “I like that: Did you hear him, Nelson? He calls one PAGE TWO ‘‘We had all we could do to bat ’em overboard.’’ for every member of her crew, from the cabin boy up to old Commodore Barebones himself, but for her time, believe me, she was some navy.”’ “Well,” said Nelson, with a sour laugh, “I’m glad somebody thinks her model was something to be proud of. But tell me, Noah, what was the idea of two sterns?”’ “I’m glad you noticed that,” replied Noah, ‘for it was a little notion of my own to avoid head-on col- lisions. I figured it out that without a bow we could not collide head-on with anything, just as if you cut off a goat’s head he can’t butt ye.” “A remarkable advantage,” said Nelson. ‘“Righto, old top,’ said Noah. “And there was an- other reason for having two sterns. It baffled the submarines. They couldn't for the life of ‘em tell which way we were going.” fresh supply for a four- handed game every night during our trip.” “Why do you ask?’’ queried Noah, looking at Mor- gan through the large end of a telescope. “O, no reason in particular,” said Morgan. “Only | want to verify your story as we go along, and I had always understood that you had only two of each kind of animal on board, and I really didn’t see how Mrs. Noah could make any kind of a stew out of two oysters.” “There are oysters and oysters,’ explained Noah. “We kept two for breeding purposes, but the others were for home consumption. But to resume—there we were, out in the middle of that vast tract of water, when Ham’s cry floats down the percolator: ‘Peri- scope two miles to leeward!’”’ “Stuff and nonsense!’’ muttered Themistocles. “Hush,” whispered Nelson. “Give him time.

Unluckily, 4 great deal of the fighting was done over the prostrate form of Peter Niburé. Suddenly one of the group broke away and ran down the street. He ran rather like a kangaroo, gath- ering his feet under him and proceeding by a series of leaps, almost as if he were being shamefally pricked from behind. At a corner he turned pale, terror-strick- en eyes back on that sinister group, and went on into the labyrinth of small streets. But disaster, inglorious disaster, waited for Nikky. Peter Niburg, face down on the pavement, was groan- ing, and Nikky had felled one man and was starting on a second with the fighting appetite of 23, when something happened. One moment Nikky was smil- ing, with a cut lip and hair in his eyes, and the next he was dropped like an Ox, by a blow from behind. Landing between his shoulder blades, it jerked his head back with a snap, and sent him reeling. A sec- ond followed, delivered by a huge fist. Down went Nikky, and lay still. Perhaps two minutes later, Nikky got UD. He was another minute in locating himself. His cap lay in the gutter. Beside him, on his back, lay @ sprawling and stertorous figure, with, so quick the downfall, @ cane still hooked to his arm. Nikky bent over Peter Niburg. his head ache abominably. “Here, man!” he said. “Get up! Rouse yourself!” Peter Niburg made an inarticulate reference to a piece of silk of certain quality, and lay still. But his eyes opened slowly, and he stared up at the stars. “A,fine night,” he said thickly. “A very fine”—— He flung out arms that and with each blow the Bending ovér made Suddenly he raised himself to a sitting posture. Ter- ror gave him strength. “I’ve been robbed,” he said “Robbed. I am ruined. I am dead.”’ ; “Tut,” said Nikky, mopping his cut ie: Se wee are dead, your spirit speaks with an uncommonly lusty voice! Come, get up. We present together @ shameful picture of defeat.” But he raised Peter Niburg gently from the ground and, finding his knees unstable, from fright or weak- ness, stood him against a house wall. Peter Niburg, with rolling eyes, felt for his letter, and, the saints be praised, found it. “Ah!” he said, and straightened up. “After all, it is not so bad as I feared. They got nothing.” He made a manful effort to walk, but tottered, reeled. Nikky caught him. “Careful!” he said. “The colossus Was doubtless the one who got us both, and we are likely to feel his weight for some time. Where do you live?” Peter Niburg was not for. saying. He would have preferred to pursue his solitary if uncertain way. But Nikky was no half Samaritan. Toward Peter Niburg’s lodging, then, they made a slow progress. “These recent gentlemen,” said Nikky, as they went along, “they are, perhaps, personal enemies?” “IT do not know. I saw nothing.” “One was very large, @ giant of a man. Do you know such a man?” - Peter Niburg reflected. He thought not. “But 1 know why they came,” he said unguardedly. “Some early morning,.

But, he reflected, many things were going on in the old city in these troubled days. Came to Nikky, all at once, that this man on his arm might be one of the hidden eyes of Government. “These are difficult times,” he ventured, “for those who are loyal.” Peter Niburg gave him a sidelong glance. indeed,” he said briefly. “But,” said Nikky, “perhaps we fear too much.

Then, rather tardily. But for you I should now”—— he shrugged his shoulders. “Good-night, friend,” said Nikky. “And better keep your bed tomorrow.” He had turned away, and Peter Niburg entered the house. Nikky inspected himself in the glow of a street lamp. Save for some dust, and a swollen lip, which he could not see, he was not unpresentable. Well enough, anyhow, for empty streets. But before he started he looked the house and the neighborhood over carefully. He might wish to return to that house. For two hours he walked, and resumed his inter- rupted train of thought—past the gloomy university buildings, past the quay, where sailed the vessels that during peaceful times went along the Ar through the low lands of Karnia to the sea. At last, having al- most circled the city, he came to the cathedral. It was nearly midnight by the clock in the high tower. He stopped and consulted his watch. The fancy took him to go up the high steps, and look out over the city from the colonnade. There was someone coming along the quiet streets, with a stealthy, shuffling gait that caught his atten- tion. So, for instance, might a weary or @ wounded man drag along. Exactly so, indeed, had Peter Niburg shambled into his house but two hours gone. The footsteps paused, hesitated, commenced a pain- fu: struggle up the ascent. Nikky moved behind his column and waited. Up and up, weary step after weary step. The shadowy figure, coming close, took a form, became a man—became Peter Niburg. Fortunately for Nikky’s hiding place, the last step or two proved too much for the spy. He groaned and sat down painfully, near the top. His head lolled forward, and he supported it on two shaking hands. Thus he sat, huddled and miserable, for five minutes or thereabouts. The chime rang out overhead the old hymn which the little Crown Prince 80 often sang to it: “Draw me also, Mary mild, To adore Thee and thy Child! Mary mild, Star in desert drear and wild.” At 10 minutes past the hour Nikky heard the engine of an automobile. No machine came in sight, put the throbbing kept On, from which he judged that a car had been stopped around the corner. Peter Niburg heard it, and rose. A moment later a man, with the springiness of youth, mounted the steps and con- fronted the messenger. Nikky saw a great light. When Peter Niburg put his hand to his breast pocket, there wes no longer room for doubt, nor, for that matter, time for thinking. As a matter of fact, never afterward could Nikky recall thinking at all. ~ He moved away quietly, hidden by the shadows of the colonnade. Behind him, on the steps, the two men were talking. Peter Niburg’s nasal voice had taken on 4 whining note. Short, gruff syl- lables replied.

Then came a clanking as the chain dropped in the road. The car bumped over it, and halted again, The same formalities, this time by Karnian sentries, A bit more danger, too, for the Captain in charge of the guard asked for matches and dangled a careless hand over the side, within a few inches of Nikky’s head.

Recently freshly cut slabs of marble have been set up at the corners of a short street in the industrial “Via Enrico Toti’—Enrico Toti street. A distinguished Italian Cabinet Minister has remarked: “If the life of Toti would not have caused them to make a saint of him in the Italy of a few hundred years ago, certainly his death would have done so.” Toti was a Roman by birth, and as a boy was noted for his strength. He could outrun, out-wrestle and out-fight any of his comrades, and began to win races at cycling and swimming from the time he was old enough to take part in them. At his home is pre- served a case full of medals won at these sports. His temper was adventurous, and his romantic im- petuosity led him into many a strange undertaking. As a youth he read that the natives of Terra del Fuego, at the southernmost point of South America, were doomed to spend their lives paddling canoes because they had never learned to build houses on land. promptly bought a hammer, collected all the nails he could find and ran away to Naples, with the intention of stowing away on a steamer bound for Terra del Fuego and teaching the savages how to improve their lot by building houses. | But he found no boat going in the desired direction, and after a few weeks of waiting hit upon the idea of enlisting in the navy on the chance that he might get service on a warship going te south America. What really resulted was two years’ montonous service on a gunboat that never left the Adriatic. After his discharge from the navy he took up me- chanics and became an expert electrician and machin- ist. While deing some special wiring for the Milan Exposition, he received a shock from a naked trans- mission cable which flung him off a scaffold 30 feet high. His companions thought he was dead, but such was his wonderful vitality that on the third day he was back at work, little the worse for wear. He was not so fortunate — ss ae Cn as —_- 7 He ° YIN oO} if "Eo" EAS _— Danan te A ee FHL... pA * nt (2 ee pe & bt +4 a i sha ; * rn? ‘ », slats, LOR Ree ee ep OR erat of th : tee he TS ; iy Bats cee At eas faa : “ % = GAN 1 4- NIFVSa fig pajioday ssulog sla +.

On the day of. the great public funeral of Bruno Garibaldi, killed while fighting with the Italian Legion in France, Toti spent many hours making patriotic speeches to the . ‘ e people in the poorer districts of Rome. - On the day that Italy entered the war, Toti rushed | ey off to enlist in the cyclist battalion. The authorities | thought he was joking and turned a sReptical ear to his pleas. He haunted recruiting bureaus, the War — “4 Office, and even the anterooms of Cabinet Ministers, but without avail. Then he began a round of bar- racks and camps, begging the officers to take him in secretly. Most of them hinted that he had lost his. wits. Finally, in the audacity of despair, in went into a second-hand shop and bought the uniform of a Bersa- galiere, plumed hat #74 all, and rode off alone to the frént. The authorities .ried to send him back home, but he persisted in hanging around, and soon made himself useful by doing odd jobs, mostly running errands on his bicycle. But he was not allowed to go near the first lines, for fear that the Austrians would see him and think that Italy was really reduced to . using one-legged men. In the meantime he made himself a notesuiil in- fluence among both officers and men. His attitude was more like that of a stern father than a com- rade. He was always talking to them about their duties to Italy, and would become enraged if anyone complained of hardships or dangers. “Look at me,” he would shout. “Don’t think | am not just as wet and just as cold as you are, because there isn’t as much of me left! But you never heard me complain, did you? You may be sure you didn’t, Well, don’t let me hear it from you, then.” Soon some of the higher officers began to see what a great moral effect Toti’s example was having not only on those who knew him, but in corps that had only heard of him. It was due principally to the Duke of Aosta, it is said, that Toti was finally permitted to realize his great ambition and was sent to the front trenches. In spite of his lost leg he proved a better soldier than any two-legged man in his company. He was a first-class sharpshooter, and could dig himself in with his intrenching tool as well as the best of them. For crawling out at night on hazardous scouting and wire- cutting expeditions, there was no one to compare with him, for his determination in carrying out his tasks was almost terrible. He had converted one of his crutches into a sort of bayonet by putting a spike of steel in the end of it, and used it with deadly effect when he could lean against an angle of a trench so as to keep his bal- ance. He was especially propd of his plumes, and never missed an opportunity to add another feather to the lot, so that they grew into a regular mop. The strength of his arms was immense, and he often amused his comrades by tearing packs of cards in two, until they found that all of their cards were being used up. After that they decided that it was cheaper to let him bend horseshoes and break one- soldi pieces in two. Then came the day when Toti's company charged an Austrian trench.

During these years he in- vented several devices. One was a washing machine, built with no other object than of saving his mother from as much rubbing as possible.

Then Toti dropped head- long into the ditch, and as he dropped a shell burst near by. A comrade ran to him and found him not quite dead. A look of peace had spread over his face and his lips moved. His friend stooped close above him and heard him mur- mur: “Baccia alla mam- ma” (‘Kisses to mother”). A moment later that high, heroic and tender heart was still.

It was shell-shock in a way, for the bursting of a great German shell not far away precipitated the catastro- pts. White, who is editor of the Emporia Gazette, recently confided his misadventure to a Kansas audi- ence before which he was lecturing. As. will be remembered, the Kansas editor went to _ Burope last summer as a Red Cross inspector, accom- panied by Henry J. Allen, editor of the Wichita Beacon and candidate for the Republican nomination for Gov- ernor of his State. Allen made speeches and White wrote articles about the work of the Hed Cross. When you go to the front, the lecturer explained, you have to wear some kind of a uniform to identify ’ your branch of service, and there is no exception in the case of Red Cross inspectors. So, when the editors reached New York, they looked about for an army and navy store where they could buy the required equipment. They found a shop in which an outfit consisting of a plain service hat, tunic and riding breeches, could be bought for $17. That was a lot of money to spend for uniforms, but the Kansans yielded to the inevitable, and with their military ap- parel snugly packed away, boarded a French liner bound for some port in France. The knowledge that they were sitting on a French liner was a source of some comfort to William and Henry, since they had been told that for some un- known reason U-boats rarely attack French boats. The most generally accepted explanation was that French liners carry Swiss mail and Swiss mail carries the correspondence of German spies in America. The liner carried Red Cross contingents exclusively, and since most of the ship's list were young men and women of 30 and thereabouts, White felt called to the responsibility of chaperoning the company. But given the balmy gulf stream, mellow moonlit nights, sub- dued in the gentle haze of fleecy clouds, the chaperon soon abandoned his hopeless task and gave his atten- tion to Henry and to meditations asto why no convoy came out to meet the liner. There were some excellent building sites out on the blue, Henry thought, but the owner badn't leveled them up in harmony with the plans and specifications of tenants laden with onion soup. A certain distance from land, 2 speck on the horizon developed into a large ball and finally into a mam- moth bag, which became a French dirigible, painted yellow and blue. It explained why no convoy had appeared. It circled around the liner and patrolled the sea, eager to drop something interesting on any intruder that might show his nose. William and Henry realized as never before the transcendent beauty of yellow. It was to them the acme of art in color. When they landed in France, White and Allen went to Paris and reported to Maj: Murphy, in charge of . the American Red Cross. Arrangements were made for a trip to the trenches. Motor cars were to be ready on the second morning.

The Kansans made mental comparisons with their own cheap outfits, much to their ‘hagrin. “You'll have’ to have military clothes when you go to the front-line trenches,” Maj. Murphy told them. have uniforms?” . Henry looked at William and William looked at senor “No,” they chorused. Maj. Murphy called an officer, who directed the in- spectors to a tailor. The officer was an acquaintance of White’s, connected with the house of Morgan, and had the J. Pierpont idea of tailoring. Henry undertook the negotiation for uniforms. “If “You ‘‘T reached around to touch the blood that seemed to be oozing from my wound.”’ you think Henry is only an evangelist and agitator,” declares White, “you are mistaken. He is a business man, every inch.” When the measurements had been taken, the inci- dental question of cost suggested itself. “How much?” asked Henry. “One hundred dollars,” smiled the tailor. “Both?” feinted Henry, hopefully. “Each,” asserted the tailor. It didn’t matter much what happened to them now, and the crafty tailor easily a sold the Kansans a sort of sash for $14, which was also “‘each.”’ It was a tragic situation. “There we were, thou- sands of miles away from our wives, paying $100 each for a two-piece suit to wear two months,” . said White, telling the story. “What would happen to us when that came out?” jAt occurred to Henry to ask when the uniforms would be ready. . “Within a week,” an- swered the tailor. Bitter disappointment. The inspectors were to start for the trenches the next morning. It was late at night when they returned to SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

Henry’s suit was an excellent fit, but somebody had switched pants on William. He found a “36” in his outfit when “46” was the correct measure. Thirty- six as a waist line is only a good start for William. Henry said he could fix it. He couldn’t speak French and the hotel people couldn’t speak English, but it was Allen’s idea that if you speak loudly and distinctly to the French they can understand anyway. Push buttons were labeled proprietor, clerk, porter and chambermaid respectively. Henry rang for the proprietor. He was out. So was the clerk, likewise the porter. Henry's finger pushed the maid's bell. She ap- peared. White stood aside, robed in his overcoat. Henry dispiayed athe insufficient pants. ‘These pants—pants —will—have—to—be—spliced—Spliced!” he shouted. “Spliced at the corsage—somewhere.” Allen executed some practical movements with scissors, indicating that a piece of cloth was to be taken from White’s shirt tail and spliced in at an appropriate location in his pants. “It was perfectly beautiful to see the dawn of intel- ligence come at last upon that maid,” comments White. She chattered something that sounded like “wee wee’’ and tripped away. A little later White’s pants were returned with the splice inserted according to directions. The following morning, attired in uniform, they were early at the motors. “A little misconstruction of your’ question as to uniforms, Major,” the Kansans explained. “It’s all right.” They devoured distance rapidly. The Kansans were interested. They didn’t want to go a little way and come back without seeing anything. You have read about the German drive at Verdun. Within a few hours White and Allen were in that re- gion. They stopped for a time at a field hospital, Shells were striking in the vicinity. None of the serv- ice men appeared concerned. They said nothing about it. “We didn’t say anything either,” relates White. “Henry looked at me and I looked at Henry, but if this thing were a secret, why we weren’t the sans to blab, so we kept still.’”’ Finally an ambulance driver mounted his seat. “Where are you going?’ questioned a soldier. “Oh, over to that hill. That last shell took an arm off one of the boys, and I guess he’s bunged up sev- eral other ways,” returned the driver, unperturbed. Someone stepped up to William and Henry. “Might as well go to the dugout while these shells are flying,” he suggested. “Yes, excellent idea,’’ assented the Kansans. is the dugout?” A -brief rest under shelter, and they were on the way to the front line. Presently Maj. Murphy, lead- ing them, pointed out Hill 304. The officer viewed the hill eagerly and intently through his glass. “Care to look?’ asked the Major, handing his glass to White. The Red Cross inspector took a glance through the binoculars, handed them to Henry, who repeated the act, and returned the instrument to the Major. “Perfectly wonderful,” remarked White. Allen thought so, too. Somebody had put a helmet upon White’s head. (Continued on Page 14.) “Where 1918. 4

I leaned with my elbow on the saddle horn, waiting. “Yes,”’ she was saying, “you can put me down as bein’ fer it. And it ain’t that I think women is angels, nuther, because I know they ain’t—and I reckon they ain’t nobedy honestly wants us to be. I reckon we’re a heap more useful as jist human bein’s. “I’m a woman's woman, plumb through; I stick up fer ’em. But I can see their faults the same as men’s. I read a right smart and I learn a heap frum people. In mixin’ around with the girls and the fellers, I learn ali the time. No matter how silly they may seem, they all learn me somethin’, and I want the vote fer wom- en because of what it will help do fer the women their- selves. They need somethin’ big outside of their homes and their chickens and their gardens to think about and to talk about with the men folks of their famblies. They need it, jist as the men needed it when they tuck it away frum the classes and give it to the masses—as somethin’ I was a-readin’ yisterday said. And the women are readier fer it than any boy of 21; they’re readier fer it than the man who gits it in exchange fer naturalization papers. Why, they’re jist as ready fer it as—as anybody, and the way to make them the best voters that ever was is to jist give it to ‘em. “Now, all that is my reason, and I reckon they ain’t no argyment between you and me as to whuther I’m a-wantin’ to vote er not, but if you ain’t in a hurry, I want to talk to you about some other things that’s a-givin’ me a heap of bother frum thinkin’ about ‘em. One of ‘em goes furder back than any sufferage question that ever lived er breathed. It commenced, I reckon, when Eve’s boy got married. It’s the mother-in-law question that I’d like to see settled.” “The—the mother-in-law question,” I re- peated wonderingly. ‘That’s what I said, the mother-in-law ques- tion. If they is any one thing that’s goin’ to keep me frum gittin’ married, it is the thought of gittin’ to be a mother-in-law. Strange how people air. You git lambasted by purty: nigh everybody if you don’t have childern. Then if you do have ’em, you can know they’s a lam- bastin’ a-coming anyhow. Your son-in-law will make light of you, because it is all the style fer a feller to complain about his. mother-in-law, and your daughter-in-law will hate you because you air her husband’s mother. But I’ve noticed how she expects her husband to like her own folks. Oh, yes, that’s a white horse of another color. But she cain’t fergive her husband’s mother fgr bein’ his mother and she jist natch- erly makes him fergit her if she can: She sets to work the fust thing to wean him away, and if she don’t do it, they’s trouble right straight in the fambly. “The pore kids! I’ve watched ‘em many a time, with their hongry eyes, a-wishin’ they could be the same with their mother that they ever was—and with his cat of a wife a-watchin’ that he ain’t—well, I jist wonder that he don’t cuss the roof off the house er dynamite it, er somethin’. But they’re sich helpless things, men is, and will do nearly anything to keep peace. And his mother—well, of course, her * Sieg. 0 pal am Ay, arr ee i ' al Sie a as “She cain’t fergive her husband’s mother fer bein’ his mother and she jist natcherly makes £ him fergit her if she can.’ hongry eyes don't count fer nothin’, her bein’ only the mother-in-law. “Of course, they’s exceptions, thank goodness. If they wasn't, the world couldn't hold all its broke hearts. But they’s so turrible many that jist natcher- ly hates their mother-in-law jist because she is a mother-in-law, that I shore don’t aim to lay myself liable to be one, ‘less I change my mind a heap. “Why, they ain't nobody livin’, hardly, but what will laugh like eejets at the mention of the word, and I have often noticed from readin’ the papers how a Jedge likes to hand down a verdick of ‘too much mother-in-law’ in cases of fambly trouble. But the mother-in-law never gits a hearin’. No, sir! They ain’t a jury in the world that would listen to her. “If I ever should happen to git married”—and here the brown eyes softened—‘“if I ever should—you no- tice that there is a big ‘if’ in the way, don’t you? But if I ever should change my mind and git married, I don’t aim to plumb lose the little bit of sense I’ve al- ready got. I’m goin’ to remember that if it hadn’t been fer my mother-in-law I wouldn't a-had my hus- band. And I don’t aim to be no robber. Her boy will still be her’n—and when that is the case they ain’t no danger but what they’ll be plenty of room fer me in his heart, and in her’n, too—fer they ain’t no woman in the world but what will be only too happy and thankful to meet a decent person that has married her boy or her girl more than half way. “I read in a paper that in a big city they kept track of it oncet fer a whole year, and the mother-in-law She sat on a stump by the roadside as she talked, her sunbon- net pushed back from a flushed, earnest, girlish face.

They've got to put their- selves-in other folk’s places and see how it feels. “In fact, they’ve jist got to use the sense they're borned with—and votin’ will help ‘em to be bigger and broader and responsibler. A minute ago I called the horrid, foolish kind of woman I was a-talkin’ about, a ‘cat.’ Did you notice it? I reckon that’s the fust time I ever done sich a thing in my life, and I don’t aim to ever do it again. It’s common and I don’t like it. Also, it’s misleadin’. I've saw plenty of men makin’ their wives miserable by hatin’ er belittlin’ their mothers, or by doin’ the hundred-and-one other tricks that’s supposed to be’ cattish, which jist goes to show that if they is any cats at all, they ain't all Tabbies. A great big half of ‘em is Toms.” She looked off to where the sun was being dimmed by a passing cloud, and brought her gaze back to me, still meditatively. “ “And they’s another thing,” she said. “When a woman loves a man well enough to try to mother his little childern, I think she ort to have a fair trial before everybody jumps on her with their hob-nail boots and the idee that she's meaner than pizen jist because she's got the. nerve to be a stepmother. It’s my opinion that & man er a woman that’s got childern better think more than twice afore they git married agin, but once they do it, people oft to take the nails out of their boots. That is, some of ‘em. Fer they’s oodles of good stepmothers.” She paused and looked off at the sky again. “Anything else?’ I asked. “Heaps. There’s the grass widder, fer in- stance, that is always to blame, and the feller she divorced, who never had ‘grass’ tacked onto him, because, the pore feller, he didn’t want to git married, nohow, and he shore couldn't he’p it because his wife got a divorce and disgraced him. Haint it a plumb sight? But what's the use of that ‘grass’ anyhow? and if it sounds so handy fer the woman, why not tie it onto the man, too. They’s a heap to be said on that sub- ject, and if you'll stay at our house tonight, maybe you'll talk it over with me. “And there’s”—— She broke eff, laughing, and grew serious again and said: “Ain’t it a sight how many things they is to think about and ain't it the strangest thing how much we can think about ‘em when it seems we ortn’t and couldn't think about noth- in’ but the war?

The men you see making good are the men who are able to be on the iob all the time they're needed, 365 days a year if necessary. Of course, there have been ecceptions, men who made conspicuous successes in spite of.a handicap of ill- health. But they only prove the rule. The well man and the strong man is the happy and successful man, Now comes a doctor who realizes that—Edwin F. Bowers, M. D. He has just published “Side-Stepping Ill-Health” (Little, Brown & Co., Boston), a book which treats of such practical topics as eating, indigestion, headache, coughs, insomnia, stoutness, rhen- matism, baldness, “nerves,” colds, measles, mumps, wrinkles, squints and tecth, and treats them in a way that drives home their prac tical message. Following are a few of his phrases, picked aimost at random from his book: is to have him marry a big, husky girl, who could eat him alive. By some inscrutable process of nature he immediately begins.to tyrannize over her, and in the process of teaching her to eat out of his hand he for- gets all about his nervous cough. And if the cough victim happens to be a frail bit of femininity, the kind guaranteed to faint if a door should slam sud- denly, marry her—if it lies within human matchmak- ing ingenuity—to a burly six-footer. While she is training him to jump through, roll over, play dead, and otherwise conduct himself properly, she will cease to cough. If the liver, the malaria-infected blood, the stom- ach, the ears or eyes, or, in fact, any member in the partnership of organs we call the body, doesnt like the way it is being treated, all it has to do is to tell the head about it. Be it ever so humble, the abused one commands the head to ache, and the head cheerfully and promptly acquiesces. The real and tremendously use- ful function of headache is to serve as a combination fire alarm and po- lice whistle for the body's protec- tion. Any system of living which automatically silences this alarm must, of course, be a health and life insurance of the first water.

This is highly commendable in a sna‘e, which perhaps eats only once a month, but extremely detrimental to a human being who repeats gastronomic excesses from three to five times a day. Humanity digs its grave with its teeth. We eat when we have appetite; and when we haven't, instead of waiting for its normal return, or stimulating it by rest, oxygenation, or the sight and smell of agreeable food, we irritate it into seeming activity with a cocktail. This bears the same relation to a true gastric stimulant that a chicken fight does to gardening. Remember that vegetarianism is the diet of en- slaved, unprogressive and conquered races; and a diet rich in meat is that of the progressive, the dominant and the conquering stocks. Nature knew what she was doing when she so constructed man that he would eat anything that didn’t eat him first. Sneezing was especially invented by the patron saint of influenza for the express purpose of spraying germs where they could and would be most readily breathed in by the sneezer’s unfortunate neighbors.

The most dangerous things about insomnia are the remedies used to club it into insensibility.

It was twenty minutes secure the seats first and dress pA seo Being a man of much reserve, his friend- ships, while warm, were few, and it happened that three of his close friends, Bert Galvin, George Tal- lant and Ogden Pomeroy, were in the party that his wife had invited to the opera, which effectually erased them from the list of possibilities. Moreover, they had probably all gone home on an early train, in ‘order to dress and return in the evening, as he would have done but for his urgent business. He smiled sardonically as he glanced at the untouched work lying on his desk. He took the money from his pockets and found that he had eleven dollars and sixty-five cents. The opera tic' ets that he had bought of Sabin in the morning would bring his cash capital up to twenty-five dollars. This left sixty-five that he must obtain in some way before he could secure the seats for his party. “Then it occurred to him that a supper must follow the opera. He couldn't decently give an entertainment of this elaborate nature without offering his guests something to eat. That would require at least twenty —possibiy thirty—dollars more: ninety-five in all thay he had still to get. A nice little sum for a young at- torney to spend in entertaining, he thought; the price of the obsolescent past participle! »,, Suddenly he remembered Mr. Babcock's words: ‘“‘l have found it an excellent plan to judge of a man's value to me by the way in which he takes his ples - ures. If he’s extravagant, | won’t have him.” “There goes my last and only chance,"’ he grimly said to himself. “This will settle his opinion of me!” Floating through his mind, jostling these calcula- tions, were various plans for obtaining the money, all more or less impracticable. With the independenc» characterizing the management of popular organiza- tions, the oracle in the box-office during the opera season had peremptorily and persistently refused to accept checks in payment for seats. so Prentiss knew that any attempt to make such an arrangement would prove futile. He tried to telephone to two men whom he knew sufficiently well to ask for a loan and found one’of them out of town and the other not yet arrived at home. It occurred to him that possibly Sabin might have remained in town, in which case he might dine at Germaine'’s, where they sometimes took lunch to- gether. Ford ran down six flights of stairs, as the elevator had stopped for the night, and he also ran three of the five blocks to the restaurant, modifying his pace only when he came into the more frequented streets. He passed through the restaurant, looking eagerly from side to side, but Sabin was not there. He decided to ask the proprietor, who would remem- ber him as a frequent patron, to cash his check, and learned, upon inquiring at the desk, that Mr. Ger- maine was ill and had gone home. At that moment he remembered a lawyer who lived ie town, a middle-aged bachelor named Robbins, who might possibly have the money within reach, and he crossed the street to a public telephone station. : He was relieved to learn that Mr. Robbins was at home, and a moment later he was saying: “Robbins, can you put your hand on seventy-five or eighty dollars? I'm in no end of a hole, and I've a to get out somehow within half an hour.” “My dear fellow, I'g: awfully sorry,” Robbins’ pleas- ant voice answered, “but I've just loaned my last dol- lar to my nephew. I've exactly enough carfare to get downtown in the morning. Ice it imperative?” “Absolutely,” réplied Ford. “Well, thanks, just the » of the Past Participle ce. WES. lies fe - z ‘ : same. I'll make some other arrangement.” “Haven't you anything you can pawn?” asked Rob. bins, laughing. : “ “I'll see,” said Ford. “How much will they loan?” “About a third of the value of your collateral.” “Thanks. Good-by.” He looked at his watch. It was five minutes past seven. He had only fifteen minutes more at the out- side. He remembered a pawnshop near the opera house. His knowledge of those Meccas of impover- ished youth was vague, as he had never before in his well-ordered life been found without some prep- aration for any emergency that might befall, or some adequate resource upon which he could depend. Now he had less than fifteen minutes in which to obtain sixty-five dollars, or lose his seats, disappoint his friends, distress his wife and humiliate himself. After that he had still to find the money wherewith to pur- chase the supper. ‘He ran out of the telephone station, hailed a passing cab and drove to his office, where he ran up éix flights of stairs, seized his suit-case and plunged down to the cab again, bidding the man “drive like the devil” to the pawnshop. Ag he left the cab, still panting from his run up and down stairs, he looked at his watch. It was fifteen minutes past seven. He found a telephone and called up the opera house. “This is Prentiss Ford,” he said, as calmly as if he were not gasping for breath. but have been detained. Wé#ill you hold those boxes for me until half-past seven?” , “You'll surely take them, sir?’ . “Oh, yes,” with. cheerful assurance; “I am on my way downtown now.” “Very well, sir.” Prentiss hung up the receiver and went to the pawnshop. “What will you give me for the suit I have on?” he asked. “It’s new.” The man fingered the coat. “Sixteen dollars,” said. “And my watch?” continued Ford. ‘Twenty-five dollars,” said the Jew, after an ex- amination. “I must have more than that,”’ “What else have you got?’ asked the man. “Nothing,” said Prentiss. Then his glance fell on a card upon which were displayed some cheap imita- tion-pearl studs. ‘Hold on!” he exclaimed. He opened is suit-case and took the pearl studs from his dress shirt. The Jew examined them caréfully. “Twenty dollars,” he said. “How much are those?’ asked Ford, indicating the imitations. “Seventy-five cents.” “That will do,” promptly replied Ford. those and you may have these.’ In the meantime he had found his pumps. “How much for my shoes?” he went on, putting up his foot for examination. “Two dollars.” “Very well,” he agreed. I can change my clothes?” He was taken into an evil-smelling apartment, where he quickly dressed, packing his business suit in the suit-case. “How much for the suit-case?” he asked as he came out. “Three dollars.”’ - “All right. The clothes are packed in it, and here's the watch. Hurry up!” jhe said Ford. “I'll take “Have you a place where But the old Jew wished to be thoroughly assured that all that he had paid for was in the case. After having satisfied himself on this point he deliberately counted out sixty-six dollars and gave Ford the cus- tomary tickets for the redemption of the goods. As Prentiss was. leaving the opera house after hav- ing secured the seats he heard someone call: 0 0 Ss Saas % nei ES ae ea a NT as ae aS ipa eee 3 i ni : “Tam on my way down, . ‘SMOpIYA SsDIE) puD Ss. ‘aie UO Sy OL nO yt PP .: «D Duyjasu V PE Se gn Cy eee " Pre PSS oa : By o> 7 “ eee (Continued from Page 7.) “Hullo, Ford!” Turning, he saw Ogden Pomeroy. “What are you doing down here all alone?” asked Pomeroy. “And where's Stella?” “Stella is dining with the Babcocks,” replied Pren- tiss. “I was busy and couldn’t go, and I came down here a little early to make sure of my seats. I hadn't been able to get down for my tickets before.” “Business must be rushing with you,” remarked his friend. “Where are you going now? Aren't you going to wait until the rest come?” “No,” said Ford, thinking of his supper. truth is I am looking for a man.” “Won't I do?” asked Pomeroy, ‘Have a cigar?” “No, thanks, ‘I'm in a deuce of a hurry.” “It must be a case of ‘battle, murder, and sudden death’ to hurry you!” rejoined Pomeroy, laughing. “Can I be of any assistance?” “Why—er—no,” began Ford, and then hesitated. Pomeroy was a bachelor and a good fellow; he could be relied upon to keep his counsel, and the case was becoming desperate. “I'm at your service,” “Well, to tell the truth, I'm somewhat short of money. I have been unexpectedly called upon for a large amount,” explained Prentiss, with a last effort to preserve his dignity, “and it has left me without enough to pay for the supper I want to give after the opera. If you happen to have twenty or thirty dollars about you—” Pomeroy groaned, and putting his hand in his pocket, brought out a handful of small change. ““That’s all I have,” he said, ruefully, “that and my commuta- tion ticket.” Ford looked his disappointment. mind,’ he said, after a moment. how,” Thereupon Pomeroy conceived an idea that he felt to be brilliantly original in its association with Pren- tiss Ford. “‘Why don’t you pawn something?” he asked. ‘There's a little shop down here, where—” He stopped, impressed by the irony of Ford's smile. “Man,” said Prentiss, “I’ve pawned the clothes off my back, the shoes off my feet and the jewels out of my shirt-front!”’ Then the whole story came out, shouts ef laughter from Pomeroy. “Here!” he cried, when Prentiss had finished. “Come on! I have my watch. We'll pawn that! Certainly we will!” he persisted, in answer to Ford's protests. “Tt’s the least I can do for you!” Ogden’s watch brought seventeen dollars and a half, but by adding his fob and a quaint and valuable ring that he wore they obtained a sum that they felt would be sufficient. When the rest of the party arrived at the opera house they found their host and Pomeroy uncon- cernedly smoking and chatting near the entrance, and Ford received the greetings of his guests as calmly as if this entertainment had been as entirely of his planning, as they believed it to be, while Stella was exquisitely radiant. After they were. seated in the boxes Mr. Babcock said to his wife: ‘Prentiss Ford is a noteworthy young man. He has always lived well within his income and he must be meeting. with remarkable suc- cess to be able to give an entertainment like this.” But it was not until the pext day that Prentiss fully realized what his past participle had done for him. Then it was that John S. Babcock came into his office and said: “Mr. Ford, my attorney, Mr. Mayhew, has been called away, and I am redistributing some of my business.

Not so Prentiss. Ford. He rarely arrived a half- minute before the locomotive came in sight around the curve, but, on the other hand, he seldom had to hurry his stride in order ‘to step upon the platform before the train started, and a similar promptness and exactness marked the conduct of all his affairs. But there came a morning when he found himself face to face with a problem for which he could find no solution. The following day would be his wife’s birthday, and his habitual readiness had given way before his masculine uncertainty as to what gift would -meet with the sincere approval of a fastidious woman. As he met her answering smile across the breakfast table he paid mental tribute, for the thou- sandth time, to her daintiness. Ford was appreciative, and two years of constant satisfaction with it had not dulled his consciousness, born of long experience in boarding houses, to the fact that the exquisite finish of Stella’s morning dress was but one indication of a certain characteristic perfection of taste in all things, which constituted, for him, her most potent charm. Sometimes, however, he felt a distressing uncertainty as to his ability to meet in full all its requirements. This was one of the times, and he wished that he might ask her for a suggestion; but since it was one of her immutable convictions that a birthday gift, to be complete, must be a surprise, it was obviously im- possible to appeal to her for help. He thought that he had canvassed all the possibilities, going into un- frequented corners of his mind in search of them, and they had all proved undesirable. Thus he found him- self, on the day before the anniversary, not only en- tirely unprepared for the event, but depressed by the conviction that he had exhausted his mental resources; and he had a vision of himself receiving Stella’s pretty thanks for something which he had stupidly bought at the last moment in desperation and which he knew that she would never, under any circumstances, have selected for herself. He folded his napkin with his accustomed deft de- liberation and joined his wife at the window to read, over her shoulder, the head-lines of the morning paper, as was their wont before his daily departure. “Hello!” he exclaimed. ‘‘Mayhew’s gotten his berth.” - Prentiss was given, in mo- ments of excitement or extreme concentration, to the use of this obsolescent past participle, a habit of which Stella vainly tried to break him. “Who's Mayhew?” she asked. “Billy Mayhew, otherwise William B. junior,” explained Ford. “Not as young as the junior would seem to indicate, however. You see, he’s been appointed Consul at San Sal- vador. Capital fellow. Han- dies all John S. Babcock’s business.” “That argues mental dex- terity,” she said. “More than that; it proves shrewdness, courage, energy and good judgment,” he re- SS plied. : Stella raised her eyebrows. “All of which he now purposes to devote to the service of his country in a petty consulate in a remote and insignificant rg- public?” she whimsically queried. “Such patriotism PAGE SI¥0 2.54% He paused long enough to pull a tablet toward him and write. if!

It must be serious. I wonder who'll get Babcock’s business now?” he reflectively added. “Would you like to have it?’ she asked. “Like it!” he exclaimed. “My dear girl, that busi- ness is worth at least five thousand a year to an at- torney, aside from the prestige it gives to be Bab- cock’s lawyer. Would I like it?” “Well,” she questioned, “why don’t you get it?’ Ford glanced at her with amusement, tempered with just a shade of annoyance. “Unfortunately,” he said dryly, “an attorney is hampered by a professional preju- dice which forbids his assaulting a man, in the pro- gressive commercial fashion, and demanding his busi- ness. The dignity of the law—’’ “Oh, quite so!”’ she interrupted. Prentiss had pon- derous moments, which she had learned to dodge adroitly. ‘But there are other ways.” “Are there?” He laughed again. ‘For example?” “‘How should I know? I’m not a business man.” “Well?” His tone suggested that there was no pos- sible answer to its question. ‘“There’s always a way,” she said. “If one is not fastidious.’’ His tone had not changed. “Prentiss!” “Oh, well—’” he began, apologetically. “As if I would suggest—’’ “No, no, certainly not!” he hastily interposed. ‘But —what do you suggest?” he added. “I don’t know,” she again admitted. “But why shouldn't you kave it?” “Being a ‘wee, modest, crimson-tipped flower,’ I NN — AN ih see no reason,” he said, still laughing; “but Mr. Bab- cock probably seeks a man of pemriiron ste experi- ence and mature judgment—” “Well,” she again interrupted, “suppose he does? What else was it that made you guard the point that none of their experienced old lawyers thought of in the Fullerton case? And they all admitted that the suit would have been lost but for that. What was it that made you win the Dexter case but shrewd- ness and good judgment? You are young, of course,’ a reluctant admission, “but Mr. Babcock might go far- ther and fare worse!” Bright spots of color glowed in her cheeks and Prentiss regarded her with grateful admiration. “You are using the personal equation as a numer- ator,” he protested. ‘Good-by, dear.” She followed him into the hall. “I called on Miss Mowbray yesterday,” she said. “Who's she?” Prentiss was brushing his hat. “Mrs. Babcock’s niece, you know. Visiting them. She’s a dear! We must do something for her,’ she added. “A dinner-party or something.” “Yes,”’ he absently assented; “that would be a good idea.” She kissed him good-by, and stood on the steps look- ing after him. “And you will think of a way, won't you, dear?” she called. “Perhaps,” he said, closing the gate. John S. Babcock was not only a wealthy man him- self, with a controlling interest in several good com- panies and a directorship in several more, but he held various positions of trust and was the custodian of sundry large funds of one sort and another, so that his legal business was not a matter to be lightly award- ed; and on the way to the station Ford’s mind was full of queries concerning the remote probability of his obtaining at least a share of it, and he temporarily forgot his quandary about Stella’s birthday gift. On the train he met a man named Sabin, with whom he usually sat on the way to town, and the two fell into a desultory exchange of the day’s news over their papers, although one lobe of Ford’s brain still held the consciousness that the Babcock business was afloat and unanchored. “Oh, thunder!’’ suddenly ejaculated his friend. “What's the matter?’ carelessly inquired Ford. They’ve changed the bill at the opera tonight. Somebody’s unable to sing and they’re going to put on ‘Lohengrin’!”’ The Metropolitan Opera Company was making one of its angel’s visits to San Francisco, near which they lived and in which their offices were located. “Well?” “Well, I’ve got tickets, but I'll be hanged if I want to hear ‘Lohengrin!’ German opera’s one too many for me.”’ Ford’s problem returned to him, but he saw a glim- mer of its solution. ‘“‘How'many tickets have you?” he asked. “Two, in the parquet. Imagine paying seven dollars a seat for the privilege of enduring an evening of German opera,” growled Sabin. “Do you want to dispose of @A) them?” (2: ) “Sure! Do you want them?” Lae — aod ‘Yes, I'll take them,’ said ile Ford. He paid the $14 and slipped the tickets into his pock- -—'s et with a sigh of relief. Stella was a discriminating lover of a music: and devoted to Wagner, , but owing to the excessive price of seats they had not attended the opera as yet this season. He remembered vaguely that there was a book on the Wagnerian operas which she had once ex- pressed a desire to own. He would get that as a permanent souvenir of the evening; and this arrangement, with a nice little supper, he comfortably reflected, would certainly do very well. As he was leaving the train he met John S. Babcock coming from an adjoining car. “No, his defalcation didn’t sur- prise me,” Mr. Babcock was say- ing to someone behind him. “Look at the reckless way in ti a a 0, 1918 « PSOA ‘Suyasom pood ‘yO—s¥ yeouye 8} Auowysied pue ‘aig @ABY 3,U0M | JUUSUABIRNS Beg J] ‘“Sounsvold sry seye) eq qoiqs Ul Atm oq} 4Q OM OF ONTEA S.UEM Be jo espnf ‘pred Auvdumos ey} OS ‘alo MOIOS WO1Z OHIO O] Pey ADUOUI oy} {| -[BIN}JVU PUB ‘BI}) 9} [[e SUveUI Sy pucseg FZusaly sen ;Aduoul jueds UU 34} Gory

EaVuH ARTS ONIN FHL AAT ONOT SlY¥dadod AS UNS : Ae fine night, highness,” she said. Hedwig raised her eyes to the stars. “It is very lovely.” “A night to spend out of doors, instead of being shut up.” She finished her sentence with a. shrug of the shoulders. Hedwig was not fond of the Countess. She did not know why. The truth being, of course, that between them lay the barrier of her own innocence. Hedwig could not have put this into words, would not, indeed, if she could. But when the Countess’ arm touched hers, she drew aside. “Tonight,”’ said the lady in wait- ing dreamily, “I should like to be in a motor, speeding over the mountain roads. I come from the mountains, you know. And I miss them.” | Hedwig, said nothing; she wished to be alone with her trouble. “In my home, at this-time of the year,” the Countess went on, still softly, “they are driving the cat- tle up into the mountains for the summer. At night one hears them going—a bell far off up the moun- tain-side, and sometimes one sees the light of a lantern.” Hedwig moved, a little impa- tiently, but as the Countess went on, she listened. After all, Nikky, too, came fram the mountains. She saw it all—the great herds moving with deliberate eagerness already sniffing the green slopes above, and the star of the distant lantern. She could even hear the thin note of the bell. And be- cause she was sorry for the Coun- tess, who was homesick, and, per- haps, because just then she had to sp@ak to someone, she turned to her at last with the thing that filled her mind. “This marriage,’ she said, bit- terly. ‘Is it talked about? Am I! the only. one in the palace who bas not known about it?” “No, highness, I had heard nothing.” “But you knew about it?” “Only what I heard tonight. always rumors.” ‘as to the other, the matter my mother referred to,’ Hedwig held her head very high, “I—she was unjust. Am I never to have any friends?” The Countess turned and, separating the curtains, surveyed the room within. Annunciata was asleep, and beyond, Hilda was playing dreamily, and very softly, as behooves one whose bedtime is long past. When the Countess dropped the curtain, she turned abruptly to Hedwig. : “Friends, highness? One may have friends, of course. It is not friendship they fear.” “What then?” “A lover,’ said the Countess softly. “It is impos- sible to see Capt. Larisch in your presence, and not there are Of course, realize’ —— “Go on.” : “And not realize, highness, that he is in love with you.” “How silly!” said the Princess Hedwig, with glow- ing eyes. “But highness!” implored the Countess. “If only you would use a little caution. Open defiance is its own defeat.” I am not ashamed hotly. “ashamed! Of course not. But things that are harmless in others, in your position—you are young. You should have friends, gayety. I am,” she smiled grimly in the darkness, “not so old myself but that I can understand.” “Who told my mother that I was having tea with —-with Prince Otto?” “These things get about. Where there is no gos- sip, there are plenty to invent it. And—pardon, high- ness—frankness, openness, are not always under- stood.” Hedwig stood still. The old city was preparing for sleep. In the place a few lovers loitered, standing close, and the faint tinkling of a bell told of the blessed sacrament being carried through the streets to some bedside of the dying. It seemed to her, all at once, that the world was full of wretchedness and death, and of separation, which might be worse than death. The lamp, pass- of what I do,” said Hedwig ‘ SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MARCH 10, 1918 ? So he waited his moment, loveless, as one may say, and then, with one singularly ef- ficient gesture, flung his tunic over the chauffeur’s head. ing behind trees, shone out fitfully. The bell tinkled— a thin, silvery sound that made her heart ache. “I wish I could help you, highness,’ said the Countess. “I should like to see you happy. But hap- piness does not come of itself. We must fight for it.”’ “Fight? What chance have I to fight?’ Hedwig asked scornfully. “One thing, of course, I could do,’ pursued the Countess. “On those days when you wish to have tea with—his royal highness, I could arrange, perhaps, to let you know if any member of the family intended going to his apartments.”’ It was a moment before Hedwig comprehended, Then she turned to her haughtily. “When I wish to have tea with my cousin,’ she said coldly, “I shall do it openly, Countess.” She left the balcony abruptly, abandoning the Count- ess to solitary fury, the greater because triumph had seemed so near. Alone, she went red and white, bit her lips, behaved according to all the time-honored traditions. And even swore—in a polite, lady-in-waiting fashion, to be sure—to get even. That night, while the Prince Ferdinand William Otto hugged the woolen dog in his sleep; while the Duchess Hilda, in front of her dressing table, was having her hair brushed; while Nikky roamed the streets and saw nothing but the vision of a girl on a balcony, a girl who was lost to him, although she had never been anything else, Hedwig on her knees at the prie-dieu in her dressing room followed the example of the Chancellor, who, too, had felt himself in a tight corner, as one may say, and was growing tired of putting his trust in Princes. So Hedwig prayed fdr many things: for the softening of hard hearts; for Nikky’s love; and, perhaps a trifle tardily, for the welfare’ and recovery of her grandfather, the King. But mostly she: prayed for happiness, for a bit of light and warmth in her gray days—to be allowed to live and love. “CHAPTER. XI. - . RATHER A WILD NIGHT. HINGS were going very wrong for Nikky Lar- isch. Not handsome, in any exact sense, was Nikky, but tall and straight, with a thatch of bright hair not unlike that of the Crown Prince, and as unruly. Tall and straight, and occasionally trucu- lent, with a narrow rapier scar on his left cheek to Bekoanie re : i HF SEFSE i z still a star, whose light touched him, but whose warmth was not for him. He would have died fighting for her with a smile on his lips. There had been times when he almost wished he might. He used to figure out pleas- ant little dramas, in which, fallen on the battlefield, his last word, ut- tered in all reverence, was her name. But he had no hope of liv- ing for her, unless, of course, she should happen to need him, which was most unlikely. He had no van- ity whatever, although in dress, with white gloves, he hoped he cut a decent figure. . So she had been his star, and as cold and remote. Anda then, very morning, whether it was the’ new cross-saddle suit or whatever it was, Hedwig had been thrown. 3 ~—séthat. "Po herself, going, she had flung two strong young arms around her horse's neck, and had almost suc- ceeded in lighting on her feet. it was not at all dramatic. But Nikky’s heart had stopped beating. He had lifted her up from where she sat, half vexed and wholly ashamed, and carried her to a chair. That was all. But when it was all over, and Hedwig was only a trifle wobbly and horribly bumiliated, Nikky Larisch knew the truth about himself, knew that he was in love with the granddaughter of his King, and that under no conceivable circumstances -would he ever be able to tell her so. Knew, then, that happi- ness and he had said a long farewell, and would there- after travel different roads. So that night he started out to think things over. Probably never before in his life had he deliberately done such a thing. He had never, as a fact, thought much at all. It had been his comfortable habit to let the day take care of itself. Beyond minor prob- lems of finance—minor because his income was trifling —he had considered little. Im the last border war he bad distinguished himself only when it was a matter of doing, not of thinking... That night, following the Archduchess’ confidence, he had stood under the palace windows, in the place, and looked up. Not that he expected to see Hedwig. He did it instinctively, turning toward her hidden pres- ence with a sort of bewildered yearning. Across his path,.as he turned away, had passed the little pro- cession of the priest and the sacrament. He knelt, aa did the lovers and the passers-by, and when he got up he followed the small flame of the lamp with his eye as far as he could see it. wetten It was typical of Nikky to decide that he needed a hard walk. He translated most of his emotions into motion. So he set off briskly, turning into the crowd- ed part of the city. Here were narrow\winding streets; old houses that overhung above and almost touched, shutting out all but a thin line of sky: medieval door- ways of heavy oak akd iron that opened into court- yards, where once armed men bad lounged, but where now broken wagons and other riffraff were stored. And here it was that Nikky happened on the thing that was to take him far that night, and bring about many curious things. Not far ahead of him two men were talking. They went slowly, arm in arm. One was talking loquaciously, using his free arm, on which hung a cane, to gesticulate. The other walked with bent head. Nikky, pausing to light a cigarette, fell behind. But the wind was tricky, and with his third match he stepped into a stone archway, lighted his cigarette, buttoned his tunic high against the chill, and emerged to a silent but violent struggle just ahead. The two men had been attacked by three others, and as he stared the loquacious one went down. Instantly a Htuge figure of a man outlined against the light from a street lamp, crouched gver the prostrate form of the fallen man. Even in the imperceptible second before he started to run toward the group, Nikky saw that the silent one, unmolested, was looking on. A moment later he was in the thick of things and fighting gloriously. His soldierly cap fell off. His fair (Continued on Page 15.)

It was evident that he was living beyond his means all the time, and natural- ly the money had te come from somewhere, so the company paid. I have found it an excellent plan to judge of a man's value to me by the way in which he takes his pleasures. If he’s extravagant I won't have him; and parsimony is almost as—Oh, good morning, Ford.”” He interrupted himself, nodding cordially to the young attorney. “How's Mrs. Ford this morning?” When he reached the office Prentiss found a client from a neighboring town awaiting him and entered at once upon a long and earnest discission of important business. As they went deeper into the subject it became evident that Ford would be obliged to give his entire day to the matter, and he resol¥ed to tele- phone to Stella that he would not dine at home and ask her to meet him in town in time for the opera. He told office-boy to ring up Mrs. Ford, and after a few mutes received the information that the tele- phone in Mr. Ford’s residence was out of repair. He was in the midst of an explanation of an abstruse legal point, but paused long enough to pull a tablet toward’ him and write: “Mrs. Prentiss Ford. “San Mateo: “Have gotten tickets for ‘Lohengrin.’ ‘Bring dress- suit. PRENTISS FORD.” “Here, Fred,” he said to the boy, “take this to the teiegraph office at ence.” He then turned to resume his interrupted discussion with his client. Karly in the afternoon, while he was still. very busy, a telegram was brought to him. He opened it and read: “Thanks have asked babcocks miss mowbray gal- vinis tallant and pomeroy. STELLA.” He read the message twice uncomprehendingly. Then he remembered the dinner-party that Stella was planning for Miss Mowbray. Probably these were the guests. But why wire him? And why thanks? Oh, the opera seats, of course! Stella was punctilious about acknowledging an invitation—it was one of the many manifestations of her good taste—and as her mind was full of her dinner, she had used the remain- ing nine words to enumerate her guests. It was one of her delicious feminine economies never to send a telegram of less than ten words. She said it was wasteful. Ford smiled, tucked the slip of yellow paper into his waistcoat pocket and returned to the struggle of the hour. His client was obliged to take a train at half past four, and Ford accompanied him to the station, in- tending to return at once to the office to attend to some work which the business of the day had forced aside; but, finding himself excessively fatigued and wishing to be fresh for the evening, he decided to take a brisk walk and an early dinner, after which he would work until it was time to go to the train at quarter before eight, giving him just time for a quick change of dress at a hotel near the opera house. He bought the book on Wagnerian operas for his wife and shortly before 6 o'clock he was again ready for work. As he neared the office building where most of his days were spent he noticed a woman approach- ing him from the opposite direction, carrying a suit- case. Something about her figure and the poise of her head reminded him of Stella. A moment later the wind caught a corner of her black coat and biew it back, revealing the light gown beneath. Ford quick- ened his steps, suddenly realizing that it was Stella, and that she had probably taken an early train in order to dine with him. She was glowing with en- thusiasm and greeted him warmly. “Are you just getting back?’ she asked, as they ascended the steps together. “We telephoned from the station about half after four, and Fred said that you had gone out, but that he expected you back soon.” “Wer” he queried. “Mrs. Babcock and I,” she supplied. “We are in- vited to dine with them at the University Club.” “But I have dined,” he objected. “Oh, have you?” Disappointment shadowed her face for am instant and then vanished. ‘Oh, well, never mind! You can't have had much, at this hour, and the chef at the University Club would tempt a saint on a fast-day!”’ They entered the elevator and were whizzed up six stories. As they weat down the dusky hall toward the office Stella tucked her hand into his. “It was so dear of you to plan this, Prentiss!” she exclaimed. “It’s my birthday-party, isn’t it?’’ “Yes,”” he said, tenderly pressing her fingers. ‘Do you like it?” “Better than anything! But you're very extrava- gant, aren't you?” There was a suggestion of anxiety in her tone that Ford hastened to dispel. “Not a bit!” he heartily protested. ‘Business is looking up, and we can afford to be a little indulgent to ourselves—particularly on your birthday,” he added, pulling out his keys. Stella sighed with content. “Then I'm quite happy,” she said. “The dinner SUNDAY MAGAZINE- -ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH- -MARCH 10, 1918 with the Babcocks will be a delightful preliminary, and the others are to meet us at the opera house. It was so like you to let me invite them myself!’’ She pat- ted his hand as he fitted the key in the door. “Eh?” ejaculated Ford; turning to look at her, a dis- turbing suspicion crossing his mind. ‘“‘What others?” “Why, didn’t you get my message? I wired you that I had invited the Babcocks, the Tallants and Ogden Pomeroy. He's for Miss Mowbray,’ she swiftly added. ‘I think they’ll suit each other to perfection.” “Oh,” he said, throwing open the door and stepping back to allow her to enter. “You mean the dinner.” “No I don’t!” she cried in surprise. “The Bab- cocks give the dinner—just for us . I mean our theater party—my birthday-party, you dear thing! And, ch —perhaps I ought not to mention it, but I don't mind your combining the two. Indeed I don’t! It makes it just that much more delightful! And it was so clever of you to find a way!” “A way?” he asked, puzzled. . “Yes—to interest Mr. Babcock. You know how he | loves German opera!” “But I didn't ask Mr. Babeock!"’ he cried. “No, but you knew I would!” she rejoined, with en- thusiasm. “That was where you were so perfectly delicious! You left it to me! And, of course,” she dimpled with demure satisfaction, “we wouldn't give a theater-party—particularly so large a party—with- out asking the Babcocks!” It was characteristic of Ford that he showed no sur- prise, and in her happy excitement she did not notice . : ; The man fingered the coat. the straws whose pointing might have attracted her attention in a calmer moment. “Stella, how did I word that message?” He spoke very quietly. “Do you remember?” She laughed irrepressibly. “Indeed I do! I know it by heart! ‘Mrs. Prentiss Ford, San Mateo,’” she recited, with affected seriousness. “‘Have got ten tickets for ‘Lohengrin.’ Bring dress-suit. Prentiss Ford.’ ”’ Ford recognized his ancient enemy, the obsolescent past participle. “You might have added another word, Prentiss,” she continued, reproachfully. “There were only nine. Why do you ask?’ “Oh, I just wondered what gave you the impres- sion—’”’ “That you wanted the Babcocks invited? Dear bor, [ may not be a brilliantly clever young attorney,’ with a caressing accent, “but I am the next best thing, the herein-before-mentioned attorney’s wife. And here’s your dress suit. I carried it all the way from the sta- tion myself when I found you were not there to meet me: and you must make haste and dress, or we shall be late to dinner.” Ford, in the meantime, had been doing some rapid thinking. He looked at his watch and found it was twenty minutes after six. Every man in the building had gone at that hour. He put his hand im his pocket, knowinr that he should find there a dollar and some cents in silver, which, with ten dollars in another pocket, constituted his sole supply of cash in hand. Eigh: additional opera seats would cost fifty-six dol- lars. He contemplated taking Stella into his confi- dence, but he instantly saw with what consternation and chagrin she would learn of the mistake, and that “Sixteen dollars,’’ he said. the knowledge would only cause her distress at @ time when he wanted her to be especially happy, with- out in the least altering the conditions. At present she was radiantly content, and to disturb her equilib- rium would be to add to the discomforts and dangers of the situation, while if she could be kept in ig- norance of the true state of affairs her genuine un- consciousness would help to carry off any hitch that might occur later. He quickly decided that he dared take no more risks than the circumstances compelled, and that he would send Stella to the dinner, excusing himself on the quite justifiable plea of pressing business. In this way he would secure two hours in which to find means where- with to meet his obligation. “Prentiss, dear, you must hurry!” again urged his wife. “I’m sorry, sweetheart,” he said, with very sincere reluctance in his tone. “I can’t go to the dinner with you. No, it’s quite impossible.” He answered the protest in her face. ‘I have something on hand which must be done.” “Tonight?” “Tonight—within two hours,” he added. “But when Mr. Babcock— This is such an oppor- tunity!’’ she begged. P “I know, but it can’t be helped.”” He spoke with decision. “It’s quite impossible for me to go. I had planned to spend the time before you arrived at work, and I simply cannot neglect this matter.” “Oh, well—perhaps it’s just as well, after all."’ She bravely struggled with her disappoint- ment. “Perhaps it will give him a better impression if you are too busy to accept even his invitation—and too conscientious to neglect your client’s interests,” she concluded, with a flush * of pride. Ford winced inwardly. He preferred not to deceive his wife, even for her good, but his decision was made and there was nothing left but to carry it through. He called a cab and sent Stella to dinner, laden with his messages of re- gret; and as the lights of her car- riage disappeared he turned with de- termination to his quest. He made a quick canvass of the building, on the chance of finding some lingering man whom he knew, and the still remoter chance that the man, if found, would have the necessary sum at hand. But every office was dark and he reached his own door with that faint hope ex- tinguished. He looked at his watch; it was 25 minutes before 7. The party would arrive at the opera house about 8, and he must be there sufficiently ahead of them to have the tickets in his possession. Suddenly it occurred to him that it might not be possible at this late hour to get 10 seats to- gether. He went to the ‘phone and called up the opera house. “Can you give me 10 seats in a block?” he asked. “No, sir,” came the prompt answer. “No chance of arranging it in any way?" he asked. “No, sir. There are only six seats left on the lower floor. We can give you three together. The others are scattering.” Ford’s heart sank. ‘‘How about the balcony?” he inquired. “Nothing at all there. Every seat sold. You wouldn't want a box?” “There are ten in my part). said Ford. “I can give you two adjoiuing boxes—five seats in each. The only ones left.” “How much?” “Forty-five dollars each.” “All right,” said Ford quietly. “Will you reserve them for me until I can get down there?” “Well—how long will that be?” “Oh, half an hour or more,” replied Prentiss, with affected carelessness. “I'll have to dress; and I'm some distance out,” he mendaciously added. “Address?” “My offices are in the Attorneys’ Building. |! at San Mateo.” “You think you can be here in half an hour, Mr. live Ford?” . “I think so. Perhaps you'd better allow me an extra ten minutes.” “There won't be any slip about this?” asked Ford, as if he were cross-examining a witness. “I shall arrive there with my party. and I don't wish to dis- appoint them,” he added. “No, sif; that'll be all right. “Oh, by the way,” said Prentiss, as an afterthought, (Continued on Page 12.)

THE RIGHT TO LIVE AND LOVE. INNER was over in the dull old dining room. The Archduchess Annunciata lighted a cig- arette and glanced across the table at Hed- wig. Hedwig had been very silent during the meal. She had replied civilly when spoken to, but that was all. Her mother, who had caught the Countess’ trick of narrowing her eyes, inspected her from under low- ered lids. 6 “Well?” she said. “Are you still sulky?” “I? Not at all, mother.” Her head went up, and she confronted her mother squarely. “I should like to inquire, if I may,” observed the Archduchess, “just how you have spent the day— until the little divertissement on which I stumbled. «his morning, for instance?” Hedwig shrugged her shoulders, but her color rose. It came in a soft wave over her neck aad mounted higher and higher. “Very quietly, mother,” she said. “Naturally. It is always quiet here. But how?’ “1 rode.”’ “Where?” “At the riding school, with Otto.” “Only with Otto?” “Capt. Larisch was there.” “Of course! Then you have practically day with him!” “T have spent most of the day with Otto.” “This devotion to Otto—it is new, I think. You were eager to get out of the nursery. Now, it ap- pears, you must fly back to schoolroom teas and other absurdities. I should like to know why.” “I think Otto is lonely, mother.” Hilda tock advantage of her mother’s preoccupation to select another peach. She was permitted only one, being of the age when fruit caused her, colloquially apeaking, to “break out.” She was only faintly in- terested in the conversation. She dreaded these fam- ily meals, with her mother’s sharp voice and the Countess Loschek's almost too soft one. But now a restrained irritability in the tones of the Archduchess made her glance up. The Archduchess was in one of her sudden moods of irritation. Hedwig's remark about Otto's loneliness, the second that day, struck home. In her anger she forgot her refusal to the Chancellor “IT have something to say that will put an end to this sentimental nonsense of yours, Hedwig. I should forbid your seeing this boy, this young Larisch, if I felt it necessary. I do not. You would probably see him anyhow, for that matter. Which, as I observed this afternoon, also reminds me unpleasantly of your father.” She rose and threw her bolt out of a clear sky. She had had, as a matter of fact, no previous in- notion of launching any bolt. It was wholly a result of irritation. “It is unnecessary to remind you not to make a fool of yourself. But it may not be out of place to say that your grandfather has certain plans for you that will take your mind away from this— this silly boy, soon enough.” Hedwig had risen, and was standing, very white, with her hands on the table. “What plans, mother?” “He will tell you.” “Not--I am not to be married?” The Archduchess Annunciata was not all hard. She eould never forgive ber children for their father. They reminded her daily of a part of her life that she would have put behind her. But they were her children, and Hedwig was all that she was not, gentle and round and young. Suddenly something almost like regret stirred in her. “Don't look like that, child,”’ she said. .‘It is not pettied. And, after all, one marriage or another— spent the what difference does it make! Men are men. If one does not care, it makes the things they do unim- portant.” “But surety,” Hedwig gasped, “surely I shal! be con- sulted*” Annunciata shook ber head. They had all rises and Hilda was standing, the peach forgotten, her mouth a little open. As for Olga Loschek, she was very still, but her eyes burned. The Archduchess remembered her presence no more than that of the so r own life, and allow me to be wretched. You cannot!” Hilda picked up her peach. It was all very exciting, but Hedwig was being rather silly. Besides, y. was she so distracted when she did not know who the man was’? It might be some quite handsome person. For Hilda was also at the age when men were hand- some or not handsome, and nothing else. Unexpectedly Hedwig began to cry. This Hilda con- sidered going much too far, and bad taste into the bargain. She*slipped the peach into the waist of her frock. The Archduchess hated tears, and her softer mo- ments were only moments. “Dry your eyes, and don't be silly,” she eaid coldly. “You have always known that something of the sort was inevitable.” She moved toward the door. The two Princesses and her lady in waiting remained still until she had left the table. Then they fell in behind her, and the little procession moved to the stuffy boudoir, for coffee. But Hilda slipped her arm around her sister's waist, and the touch comforted Hedwig. “He may be very nice,” Hilda volunteered cau- tiously. “Perhaps it is Karl. | am quite mad about Karl, myself.” Hedwig, however, was beyond listening. She went slowly to a window and stood gazing out. Looming against the skyline, in the very center of the place, was the heroic figure of her dead grandmother. She fell to wondering about these royal women who had preceded her. Her mother, frankly unhappy in her marriage. permanently embittered; her grandmother. #4 y ; | : AR rs ay te ; a j Gs > - | 7, Jerr rere: aes oe 4 ‘ ‘ 44 . , * > a wr * ° a “~ “ len Be es c¢ + hay . > os ~ > owes . f p “y / ‘ ‘ *e - a* a“ ’ * « ~~ s ~" ay Ww -} It was a moment before Hedwig compre- hended. Then she turned to her haughtily. Hedwig had never seen the King young. She could not picture him as a lover. To her he was a fine and lonely figure. But romantic? Had he ever been ro- mantic? He had made her mother’s marriage, and had lived to regret it. He would make hers. But what about the time when he himself had taken a wife? Hedwig gazed at the statue. Had she, too, come with un- willing arms? And if she had, was it true that after all, in a year or a lifetime, it made no difference? She slipped out on to the balcony and closed the curtains behind her. As her eyes grew accustomed to the darkness she saw that there was someone below, under the trees. Her heart beat rapidly. In a mo- ment she was certain. It was Nikky down there; Nikky, gazing up at her as a child may look at a star. With a quick gesture Hedwig drew the curtain back. A thin ray of light fell on her, on her slim, bare arms, on her light draperies, en her young face. He had wanted to see her, and he should see her. Then she dropped the curtain and twisted her hands to- gether lest, in spite of her, they reach out toward him. Did she fancy it, or did the figure salute her? Then came the quick ring of heels on the old stone pave- ment. She knew his footsteps, even as she knew every vibrant, eager inflection of his voice. He went away, across the square, like one who, having bent his knee to a saint, turns back to the business of the world. | In the boudoir the Archduchess had picked up some knitting to soothe her jangled nerves. “You may play now, Hilda,” she said. Into Hilda’s care-free young life came two bad hours each day. One was the dinner hour, when she ate under her mother's pitiless eyes. .The other was the hour after dinner when, alone in the white drawing room beyond the boudoir, with the sliding doors open, she sat at the grand piano, which was white and gold, like the room, and as cold, and played to her mother's pitiless ears. She went slowly into the drawing room. Empty, it was a dreary place. The heavy chandeliers of gold and cut glass were unlight- ed. The crimson and gilt chairs were covered with white linen. Only the piano, a gleaming oasis in a desert of polished floor, was lighted. and that by two tall candles in gili candlesticks that reached from the floor. Hilda, going reluctantiy to her post, was the only bit of life and color in the room. At last Annunciata dosed, and Hilda played softly. Played now, not for her mother, but for herself. And as she played she dreamed: of Hedwig’s wedding, of her own debut, of Kari, who had fed her romantic heart by treat- ing her like a woman grown. The Countess’ oppor- tunity had come. She put down the dreary embroid- ery with which she filled the drearier evenings and moved to the window. She walked quietiy, like a cai. Her first words to Hed- wig were those of Peter Niburg as he linked arms flowers on the table. “When I wish to have tea with my cousin with his enemy and start- “Mother, you cannot look back, and—and remember I shall do it openly, Countess.” ed down the streets. “A PAGE TEN SUNDAY MAGAZINE- ST.

As old skin dies, new forms. By the correct external treatment you can make this new skin just what you would love to have it.
