The young man who seemed very much at home in the easy chair leaned over and deliberately pulled a hair from the back of the fat poodle that was asleep on the rug. He leaned back smiling in great contentment over the result of his feat and spoke through the canine din. “I had a particular reason for calling tonight,” he an- nounced. The pretty girl turned over a book on the table to conceal her nervous- ness. “Oh, did you?”’ she asked with elaborate carelessness. “How could you be so mean to poor old Fido?” “He needs exercise,” explained the young man. “Nothing like exercise to take off fat—I'll bet he hasn’t chased around that way in a year before! As I was saying, I wanted to see you par- ticularly, Emeline. I wanted to ask you about something.” “I am sure,” answered the pretty girl with great kindness, “that any ad- vice I can give you I will gladly—" “That's just it!” he declared eag- erly. “I want your advice!” “Oh!” said the pretty girl shortly. She seemed disappointed. “I think after all it is sort of foolish to ask ad- vice, don't you? People ask it and then never take it!” “Not me,” persisted the young man. “And T'don't know anyone whose ad- vice I'd rather rely on than yours, Bmeline. I wanted to ask you about— er—well, about a girl!” “Oh!” said the pretty girl again. She swallowed hard. “Of course I'm inter- ested in any friend of yours, Harold. But—" “She's a dandy girl!” insisted the young man. He smiled reminiscently and the young woman took hold of her chair arms hard. She had the general air of a dynamite bomb that is about to explode, but he did not notice fit. “In fact,” he went on, “I don't know another girl who is such an all around success in‘every way as she is! I'll have to tell you «bout her so you ean understand the case.” “Pleast do!” said the young woman in appropriately rapturous tones—be- tween her teeth. “She {8 better than just pretty,” ex- plained the young man. “Because there is intelligence in her face and “She’s a Dandy Girl.” expression and all that. And she can do everything—outdoors as well as in, and she is always cheerful and she has such a way of looking at a fellow—" “Goodness!” sald the pretty girl with tremendous raillery. “I never heard of such a paragon! If you can find a girl like that you ought to grab her, quick before the grand rush be gins! For there aren’t many Ifke her!* “That's what I think,” the young man agreed. “I've thought so all along, just to myself, you know. I've been sure, but I didn't realize it until Iately.” “T'm terribly interested, of course,” said ‘the pretty girl, stifiing one cor mer of & delicate yawn, “but what was it you wanted' my advice about?

Cairo, Egypt—No explanation of the government of Egypt 1s adequate without the presentation of the name of Lord Kitchener, who since his ap- pointment as British agent in October of 1911 has been increasingly the unique and dynamic force behind all the government agencies, alike the protector of imperial English interests and the humanitarian regenerator of the land he loves, writes Clayton Sedg- wick Cooper in a letter from Cairo to the Christian Science Monitor. He came to Egypt to assist in the completion of the splendid work of re- generation commenced by Lord Cro- mer. He himself had before contrid- uted to the problem as the soldier leader in Khartum, the conqueror of the Khalifa, sweeping out of the Su- dan the fanatieal dervishes, nor did he arrive one moment too soon to arrest the tide that was surely carrying 2 Z 7. yzzzy = You wish to achieve it of course— measures which he is now promulgat ing for the new Egypt. Egypt dackward from the high and superd statesmanship of Lord Cro mer's regime. . The presence of an iron hand was ors were ‘unconsolously turning ia thelr minds toward Kitchener. As the conversation of a certain Egyptiaa officer who commanded a brigade at Omdurman infers: “Lord Kitchener is a soldier. He is a man of fron. He made a clean sweep of the Sudan. He is fust, but he is not to be trifled with, There is not a nationalist in Egypt who would not bury himself in the sand if Lord Kitchener came to Calro. He s the man for the job.” After an interview with Lord Kitch. ener in Cairo I realized that he was “the man for the job.” I also realized why the people of the Nile country, when asked why the nationalists were quiet, why the schools of agriculture and commerce were thriving, why thousands of acres of rich Egyptian land were being reclaimed by new systems of irrigation and drainage, why the European timeserver is un- ceremonfously disappearing, why the Journals of the agitators have been going out of business at the rate of one each day, why thousands of fella- heen were beginning to have a grow- ing confidence in the government as evidenced by their trust in the postal savings bank, or why Turkey did not Kitchener of Khartoun. send its soldiers across Egypt in fts war with Tripoli—yes, and why even Downing street seemed affected with & new confidence—always gave the same answer—Lord Kitchener.
