His last ocean trip was from Buenos Aires to New York. = A great sea name, Anthony Cadogan. And a wonderful career thet will be envied by nearly all of us who are @hained to a dull humdrum existence. _ Captain Cadogan h. friends in every country in the world. He crossed the equator 320 times. He has seen many startling changes in ships since he put to sea in 1877, and équally startling changes in the countries he visited.

He will not find lifé ‘dull, for he will live chiefly in mem- aries. a 4 Why’ is sity that the other fellow gets the romance and | adventure of life, while’ most of us get only a monotonous | grind? A few years after Captain Cadogan made his first trip at sea on the full-rigged ship Lord Canning, a young fellow running a bicycle repair shop was tinkering with a gasoline | engine, trying to make it operate a “horseless carriage.” That young fellow was Henry Ford. 3. Recently he has been turning out finished cars at the rate of one every four seconds. ¢ The Wall Street Journal inspects Ford’s business report for the 12 months ended last Feb. 28, and figures that he made a profit of $55 on each car. | How:would you like to have every four seconds?

He calls at the office of Colonel Henry Nelson, his enemy, and informs him that he means to | break him financially. Gray falls !in love with Barbara Parker, who buys land for Nelson. Gus Bris- kow, friend of Gray, takes Ma Bris- |kow and daughter Allegheny to the mountains. Gray calls to see | his friends and he and Ma Briskow ; Pretend they believe in fairies. Ma says she is a princess and Gray calls himself a duke. Ma shows Gray |where she walks daily, 1 NOW GO.ON WITH STORY But the princess raised her slim, Jeweled hand, and spoke thus: “Too e, Your Honor! I been married to }His Royal Highness the Earl of | Briskow, and it serves you right the way you done both of us.” The duke fell into a great rage at | this, He refused to believe it, and ‘threatened to annul the marriage. “Oh, you can't do that,” tittered |the princess. “We was married by | the Royal Justice of the Peace and— we got two children.” | Here was & blow! The duke was |crushed until a happy thought came |to him. If cruel fate prevented him from claiming the Princess Pensa- cola for a bride he would take her | fer, a mother. He had always wanted a mother, anyhow; lack of maternal |care it was that accounted for his | wildness—it was enough to ruin any duke—and mothers were much nicer } than wives, They were much harder to get, also, | ‘Lord! I wish you mean it!” Ma jexelaimed in a matter-of-fact tone. “I wish Allie was a real’ princess, | Mebbe——” Gray broke in with a laugh. “There! You've spoiled the play. The jduke has fled, | ‘Mra.

Why, I have a real princess of my own.” “Honest?” Gray nodded. “The Princess of Wichita Falls. Would you like to ihear about her? Well, she’s small ;and dainty, as princesses should be, and her eyes are like bluebells, Ma, I send her roses, mostly, so they can kiss her checks for me. A tiny yel- low love bird in a tiny yellow cage Sings her awake every morning. I taught it to sing the. song it warbles but-she'll never © understand what the little’ bird is trying to say.” Ma Briskow had listened with rapt attegtior. Now, she inquired/ “Does she love you?” / “Didn't I’ tell you this was game of pretensé?” Gray said, g As the two entered the hotel grounds, Gus and Allie hurried to meet them, ‘ At sight of her husband's face Ma jinquired, in sudden anxiety, “What's | wfong Gus?” | “It's Buddy,” Allie declared, “ “Tain’t serious,” Briskew said. “And it is too, He’s left/ school }run away!

She'll find them nice people, and you must make her meet them halfway. Perhaps she'll become intreested in some decent young fellow. I'd like that, wouldn't you?” “Would ye?” The tone of this inquiry caused Gray"to glance more keenly at the speaker but Briskow’s bright eyes told him nothing. “Why, natufally, Allie is becom- ing more attractive every day§ and she is going to make “something of for all you q herself.
