She meets the Duc de | Pontoise, French general who had been a friend of both Vanecring | and Howard, and the Duc, fascinat- | ed by Dagger's charm, asks his aunt, Princess Rakovski, to invite her to tea. Meanwhile Dagger real izes that she cherishes the memory or Howard more than that of Cap- tain Vaneering, her dead husband. Chapter 24 DAGGER ENTERS PARIS SOCIETY There was respect in Dick Well- g's tone as he spoke of Dagger's invitation from the Princess. ‘“De Pontoise is the youngest general in the French service, one of the most popular men in the country. He| could have anything in politics, if | he cared for that sort of thing. I've niet him. A rattling fine sportsman, Dagger.” “I liked him,” Dagger admitted demurely. “Well, your future in Paris Is as- sured. His aunt is the Princess | Rakoveki.

Second, she” calling because hdr nephew asked | her to—and that mean's he's inter- ested in vou, which means he con- | siders you as good as himself.” “How yoy talk, Dicky,” Dagger | protested. “Why, I've only seen the | man once.” \ “That makes no difference. You | don't realize how these Europeans | do things, especially a man of his | stamp, who considers himself quite | as good as any sovereign, from the point of lineage. Make up vour| * mind to it that you have a suitor.” | “I won't do anything of the kind.” 4¢'s ridiculous. Just because he likes | to talk to me is no reason for sup- “posing him infatuated.” Dick's laugh was indulgent this time. | “No Frenchman permits himself | to be infatuated, Dagger. Not f he asks his senior female relative to invite you to call. That means just one thing: he thinks you are | eligible for whatever he has to offer you. These affairs are very delib- erate. There is a great title in- volved. You must meet all the re- | lations. You must be elaborately | entertained. And you'll probably | like it. There isn't a worthier man | ir. Europe than de Pontoise.” “But T haven't the sightest idea | of marryin, | ot now, perhaps.

The Princess Rakovski met her. an erect, diminutive wisp of an old lady, who radiated vitality. Her snowy hair, abundant and dressed With a rakish carelessness, set off her brown eyes that glowed with the same proud- light as her nephew's; and she had a presence which suggested dignity without condescending o assertiveness. “So nice of you to come to me, Madame Vaneering,” the Princ said, speaking English as fluent as| de Senac’s. | “But it is so much nicer for you to invite a stranger in Paris,” Dag- | ger answered warmly. “I am ver: much alone.” “Absurd,” asserted the old lady, | bright eyes scrutinizing the Ameri- can girl. “For T sce that Raoul has not exaggerated.

And the Princess exclaimed: “The wanderer! Ah, that sicur Howard! Whenever he came | to Paris, he and Raoul would sit up | the night long, and talk—and talk. Of what? I would demand in the marnfng.

Suit and cloak manufactur- ers and jobbers report business of fair volume. Collections in the above lines are slightly better than a week ago. Business at ‘the department and specialty stores shows a little im- provement under the stimulation of sales at which profits are seemingly disregarded. “While prices continue unchanged in sole and upper leather markets there is a stronger undertone to the market and more inquiry for all types of leather. General feeling is to the effect that the worst of the depression is over and that the pres- ent raw material market is favor- ably affecting leather buying.

Prices were inclined to soften but the in- creased demand has brought these | values back to firmer ground. “The general volume in the wholesale jewelry business for the vear to date is 30 per cent below last | year at this time. The volume in the retail trade is 25 per cent less than a year ago.

OLD INDIAN SCOUT PASSES ON AT 8 Might Have Prevented Custer Massacre Save for Horse Kansas City, Sept. 27 (UP) — Arapahoe Harve, the only white man who could have averted the In. dian massacre of General George A. Custer and his men on the banks of the Little Big Horn, is dead from the effects of a broken hip. He was 86 years old and the last of the fa mous scouts of pigneer days. Arapahoe Harve, whose real nams was Harvey S. Faucett, was an as- sociate of Kit Carson, Buffalo Bill and other famous scouts. He serve ed at one time under General Cus- ter and only the fact that his horse gave out prevented him from warn- ing the general of the massacre which awaited him in June, 1876. Faucett was warned of the mass. ing of Indians under Chiefs Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. He was 200 but started on horse« back to warn Custer. His horse col- lapsed after 20 hours of hard riding and before he could get another he learned of the massacre. His last scouting was done with the Newton Scientific survey into the Black Hills. The party was at- tacked by Indians and forced to flee. Harve kept the Indians at bay with his rifle, although he had an arrow in his shoulder. form of entertainment.” {ISE HERALD CLA!
