THE EVENING. TELEGRAM LAKELAND, FLA., FEBRUARY 27, 1912 The Gl @ AT 4 NOVLLIZATION OF THE ALAY BY #/z%fif/%mw OTTO HAURBACK NOVELIZED DY WLBLIR O. MESBIT ~#f CHAPTER TIII. Who, it develops, Is Mrs. General Blazes, She is in distrac- tion lest her husband should hear of her escapade. She declares that her milliner told her a duplicate of the rutned hat had been delivered to Harry's house. Re- sponding to her demands for the hat Har- ry insists that he knows nothing about it. Lucy Medders and her father arrive and the Count s secreted in the library and Mrs. Llazes in Harry's bedroom. CHAPTER IV. Lucy profeses curiosity R?rdln. the room in which Mrs. Blages is hidden and Harry is forced to do some fancy lying. CHAPTER V., Unannounced, there entered the room a slender woman, whose face was half hidden by a huge, flopping, bushel- basket type of hat, the brim of which was draped with flaunting, flapping lace, and from whose crown lifted into the alr a gorgeous array of feathers and ribbons and flowers. A tightfit- ting gown, with the skirt so hobbled that her steps were painfully mincing, encased her form, and from behind ber drifted the most remarkable train that ever was. She tottered in on her high-heeled shoes and peered about the place with a mingling of coyness and assurance that was amas- ing. Harry looked up, saw her, and groaned. Then he lapsed back furth- er into the chair and mentally gave himself up to the inevitable with the words: " s gods! Daphane Daffington!" She looked him over coolly, and sald: “You!" He nodded his head weakly. Things had been piling themselves up too rap- idly for him to be able to face the situation with any assurance what- ever. “After all these years!" she ex- claimed. “To find you at last. Where have you been all this time?” “Oh"—confusedly—"I've been here and there—first at home and then away off.” “Well,” she sald, pursing her Mps determinedly, “you're away off it vou think you can shake me as easily now as you did the last time.” “I'm sorry, Daphne,” Harry told her. “l know you have a right to think harshly of me.” “A right!” she satd, scornfully. “I know,” he confessed, “that you think [ treated you shabbily.” Lucy, in Her Plain Gray Dress, Was a Marked Contrast to the Dashing Beauties Me Knew. “Shabbily?” she sniffed. “You only streets an English builder has simply | ®8Il It shabby to ask me to go to & game, and leave me under an sick rooms, lecture rooms and others | S¥2I2g In a pouring raln—and that's last I see of you in two whole, ble of wagons were greatly diminished | 1008, Weary years!™ Harry squirmed. “T guess that wasn't right, Daphne,” edged. llouhowl “You sald you were going for a cab,” she accused him.

Then it slowly filtered through his brain that she was the milliner to whom Mrs. Blazes had telephoned. Daphne misinter preted his stare for one of admiration, and with a remarkable imitation of shyness, she asked: “Do you think my new gown is be- coming, really?” “It's a beaut,” Harry informed her. “It's & beaut. How do you get it on? With a shoe horn?” “There you go again!” Daphne satd, accusingly. “You were always so full of sarcasm that you acted sour. 1 want that hat I sent over here.” “You never sent any hat here.” “Yes, I did. A yellow hat, trimmed with red popples. It was a duplicate of an imported model that I sold to one of my best patrons.” “I've heard of that hat” Harry mused. Then he sald, brightly: “Why, you're not the renowned Mile. Daphne, the milliner, are you?” “None other,” preened Daphne. “You see, I have risen to fame and achleved my ambitions, while you have been content to remain in ob- scurity.” “To my sorrow,” Harry replied, “that is too true, Daphne. But about the hat, I really know nothing of it. There must be a mistake.” “It came here, all right,” Daphne replled. “The party who got ft wouldn't give his name. He just gave this number.” “Well, I wish.such a hat were here. The messenger must have taken it to the wrong house. Now, Daphne, 1 want just such a hat as that, and I'll bay you a good price for it.” Daphne &hook her head judicially, and fluttered her hands as though she had been asked to pluck a few stars from the sky. “l can’t make another,” ghe sald. “There aren’t any more like the orig- Becker is not a piavo for 4 +.

"Why?" she asked. “What 1s Mrs. Blazes to you?” “Nothing,” Harry sald, fervently. “Absolutely nothing.” “Well, you acted queer. You al- ways did act queer” Daphne sald. “Anyway, the other hat was sent here, and I want to get it.” “But it isn't here,” Harry assured her. “If it were, I wouldn't let you have it, because I want one like it my- self.
