Lilllan, how- ever, gave me no chan & finish. “That will L¥" splendid,” she sald. “Madge has a gown here that will do. Hurry along.” “Ars you sure?”’ With a eyebrow he indicated the Mamie, slumped into a chair. “Absolutely,” she returned decision. «Please, Madge ! “Then I fly,” he said, and turning strode out of the room, pausing at the door for the brief assurance: “I')l have your car put Madge.” "t “Please ! Lilllan raised a moni- tory hand as I opened my lips for a protest against the bizarre pro- gramme she laid out for me. "If, wh Harry comes back, you think you can't do it, why I shan't ask it, but please change your gown and freshen up, anyway. You'll need it after that drive. You can have longer than fifteen minutes, Take what time you need, Harry can wait when he comes back. T'll prob- ably ne#d some extra light on this thing which I fancy he can supply.” There was a finality in her tone against which 1 knew from experi- ence there was no use to protest. But as I took a quick shower, and changed from the sult T had worn on the hectic automobile journey to the city, I found my mental reac- tlons to Lillian's proposition in a turmoil as exciting as it was puz- 2ling. Ome set of impulses recoiled from going out with Harry Underwood to a dinner, with dancing as an accom- paniment and I wondered a bit at Lillian's asking it. But to my ewn annoyance and disgust, T found my- self thrilling like a girl at her first #chool dance at the prospect of the colorful hours which I knew from | past experience Harry Underwood furnished to anyone whose escort he chanced to be.

The young redskin who would cry lout under any torture was placed in | an unfavorable light before his tribes- | men. | But the Mann children, of Anytown, like most children, were petted and kissed and made a terrific fuss over if they g0 much as scratched themselve As a result there was much weeping and fussing over mere nothings. This modern attitude, which is car- rled to the opposite extreme from that of the aborigine, is likely to turn some children in neuraesthenic paths. Children and grownups alike might well be given a foew lessons In turning our attention away from minor trou- bles and hurts and cares, If started in childhood, this state of mind can e gradually strengthened and in later vears there will he considerable less possibility of worrying or fearing or fussing. 1] Adventures o Raggedydun by Johmy I can tell you, the two mean witch- es Minga and Munga were very angry when they came rolling up, lickity split In Raggedy's Ann's magicA’ house on wheels and saw that Rag- gedy Ann had made, with her magic book, a nice new wagon with red wheels for the poor man to ride in. The two witches shook their fists at the Raggedys and called to the mag cal house on wheels to go faster, but. the magical hobby horse, hitched to the nice new wagon with red wheels could run ever so much faster than the house on wheels could run and in a short time the two witches were far behind. “Dear me!” Minga the Witch howl- | ged | been much better ed into her sister Munga's ear, "“The Raggedys have escaped again didn't you take the two magic books away from them hafore you left them Why | | | | and Ka%gedy Andy Sruelle was to blame and did not stop to con- sider that really both were to blame. So they pulled each others noses and yanked each others hair until finally they rolled right off the front porch of the house on wheels. “Now just see what you have done!” Both witches cried at each other as they sat up and rubbed the bumps on their heads. “You made me roll off the porch and now we have not only let the Raggedys es- cape, but we have lost the nice house on wheels!"

T congratulated my friend, parted from him with mutual expressions of esteem, and walked toward the river. And the farther I walked, the more ineredible it seemed to me that the White Eagle, or M, Armand Cochet, could be engaged in such an astound- ing philanthropy as that in which T had discovered him this morning. And yet, battling against my dis- helief, was my knowledge of the im- petnous kindnesses of those who live by their wits. Perhaps the White agle pacified his conscience by such a typically Gallic charity. But criminals do not ordinarily in- vite public attention. Of course, ,flmugh, 1 must not forget, that ac- | cording to my falr companion of last night, the White Eagle had never yet been convicted of crime. Perhaps he did not fear public interest in him. But it was among the ordinary probabilitics that one or more of the applicants attracted by his bizarre advertisements should be of the crim- inal class. One would expect the White Eagle to be fearful of recog” nitlon by such a one. Still, beggars can't be choosers, and T suppose the White Eagle felt that those in need of charity, for the Club was obviously a charitable affair, would not be in- clined to question the source of the revenues which were to be applied to their wants. But I had given much of my thought to Eagle and his affairs. confessed myself, finally, beaten. I _could neither ufderstand what could be the relation between the supercrook and the millionaire, nor why the White Eagle should institute a philanthropy. I vowed that I would think no more on these matters. If the dealings be- tween Higgins and the white-haired man there lay opportunity for me, T would forego it. I would not drive myself to distraction by futile specu- lation. Nor would I he ashamed of my inability to strip the disguise from the figure of Opportunity. y i uld await her next passing, hoping that she would be more easy of recognition then, Even though one has rented a fur- nighed apartment, and has lived in it only a few months, one finds that little by little one has acquired a con- siderable quantity of possessions, T was sailing in two days; T could not afford to be willfully extravagant; so T spent the rest of this day in deal- ings with secondhand merchants, | realizing a few thousand franes. The next day I spent in packing and ship- ping my trunks and in purchasing | some necessaries for the trip. And the next morning, promptly at nine | o'elos T passed through the train gates at the Gare du Nord, and en- tered a first-class carfiage. Having seen to it that hags | were mafely deposited in a corner of the carriage, I walked to the platform to watch the rast of the travelers. 1 strolled as far as the ftrain gatfes, puffing at a cigarette. 1 was about to turn back when I saw, accom- panied by a mald, a valet and an obscquious-seeming youth who was unquestionably the millionaire's sec- retary, Mr, and Mrs, Higgins. T had not examined the passenger | 1ist, and so was surprised at their ar- rival. But beyond a natural interest at the coincidence, T should have thought very little about it, had not they been followed through the gates by a man who was blind in one eye. Net merely that, but he was indis- putably one of the group with which 1 had collided on a corner of the Rué des Raintes Peres! 1 could not be mistaken: that his dfess was much improved, that he had heen to a barber, made no difference.

Indeed, T was no wiser |six days later when the Altarla was |only a night from her dock in New York. Daddy those six days T had ob- served, as closely as I could without drawing attention to myself, Higgins and the one-eyed man. But although nearly early one of the first-class pagsengers, including ~muyself, ex- changed words, at some time or other, with the millionaire, the one-eyed man never, to my knowledge, even exchanged a look with Higgins, The one-eyed man kept to himself; when- ever he walked the deck, he was alone; he never seemed to utter more than monosyllables to his table-mates in the saloon; he neither offered nor accepted hospitality in the smoke- room, hut drank alone, On the night before we landed, T attended the concert in the lounge, I sat with a couple of chance acquaint- ances near the door, where we watched the various arrivals, ex- changed banter with them, and gos- siped, after the fashlon of travelers, ahout their manners, appearances, probable income, and flirtations dur- ing the voyage. Then, as Mr, and Mrs. Higgins passed through the wide doors, we all three gasped. Higgins was worthy of note. His white waistcoat was fastened with emerald buttons; he wore a solitaire diamond on one hand that must have weighed a dozen carats and been worth a fortune. A solid rope of diamonds hung from his watch pocket, supporting a ruby fob. His vulgarities had formed the ba of half the smoke-room talk during the trip, but this ostentation, in excessively had taste, outdid any- thing else. But he was diffident as compared with his wife. Tt was not alone that her gown was cut so low that one blushed with vicarious shame, wondering that so ill-formed a woman should care to expose her muddy flesh, It was not that her jewels were 8o expensive, even, it was that she wore such an unbelieveable number of them. 8h seemed plastered with precious stones, until 8ne forgot how low her dress was cut, 1 had read of her jewels, but had assumed that the newspaper awriters had been guilty of the usual | Sunday supplement exaggeration. Now I knew that they had been re- strained. And one jewel, a pearl hanging from a chain until it rested like a round white grape upon her bosom, held my fascinated eyes. It drew my companions' attention, too, for one of them, Brokow by name, mentioned it. “Giet the pearl?”" he whispered. “(iot any Idea what that thing's worth ?** 1 shook my head, “I know,” he | said. “T was in Maret's on the Rue de la Paix, the dag they bought it. | Me® he chuckled, "buying a thou- sand-franc brooch to take home to the Missus, and thinking what a hit (1'd make with her!
