It is one of the few primitive sensations that remain to us, this wanting the fe-. male dependent upon the male. Per- haps this accounts for man’s lack of interest on the suffragette question. Only Susan suspected the true state Having had no real romance herself, she dex lighted-in having-a second-hand one, as you might say. She intercepted many a glance and pretended not to see the stolen Hand pregsures.. The wedding was already full drawn in her mind's eye. These two young people should be married at Susan Farlow’s when the roses were climbing up the sides of the house and the young rob- ins were boldly trying their fuzzy wings. It struck her'as rather strange, but she could not conjure up (at this wedding) more than two men besides the minister, the bridegroom, and the butler. By forsaking his accustomed haunts, under the advice of Jones, the hidden warfare ceased temporarily, You can’t very well kill a man when you don't know where to find him. He ate his breakfasts haphazardly, now here, now there. He received most of his assignments by telephone and wrote his stories and articles in his club, in the writing rooms of hotels, and in- variably dispatched them to the office by messenger. The managing editor wanted tv know what all this meant; | but Norton declined to tell him. | It irked him to be forced to rear- range his daily life—his habits. It was 4 revolution against his ease, for he loved ease when he was not at work. He had the sensation of having been suddenly robbed of his home, of having been cast out into the streets. And on top of all this he had to BO, and fall_in-love!- There was no longer a shadow op- | posite the apartments of the Princess | Perigoff. Braine came and went night- | ly without discovering any one. This rather worried him. It gave him the impression that the shadow had found | out what he had been seeking and no} longer needed to watch the coming and going of either himself or the} Countess Perigoff. | - “Olga, it looks as if we were at the end of our rope,” he said discouragedly. “We have failed in all attempts so far. The devil watches over that girl.” “Or God,” replied the countess gloomily. “In nearly every instance their success has been due to chance. Somehow I’m convinced that we be- gan wrong. We should have let Har- greav~ escape quietly, followed him, and made him fast when the right op- portunity came. After a month or so his vigilance would have relaxed; he would have arrived at the belief that he had eluded us.” “Indeed!” ironically. “He wasn't vigilant all these years in which he did elude us. How about the child he He never was anything else all these seventeen years. The truth is, suc- cess has developed a coarseness in our methods. And now it is too late for finesse.

Miss Faulkner has had a special course in domestic science and is well able to instruct.

E] Paso, Texas, Nov. 15.—A stam- pede ina drove of long-legged os- triches caused a panic in southern Arizona yesterday, and resulted in a number of rnnaways and the death of Mrs. John Adams, a resident of the Salt River Valley. The ostriches were fenced ina big runway when they became frightened by an automobile with its muffler cut out. The leaders ducked their heads - and ran iwith wings extended as if trying to fly. This was the signal for a general stampede. Cowboys from. the neighboring ranches were enlisted in the efforts to round up the birds, but only suc- ceeded in making them run faster, outdistancing the riders .by many yards. Mrs. Adams’ hore se became fright- ened and ranaway. She was thrown from her vehicle and killed. The ostriches finally were stopped by a barbed wire fence. . Notice.
