After eight years; of married life,
Mark Sahre, a well educated Eng
lishman, realizes that he and his wife,
Mabel, have been drifting apart be
cause of fundamental differences in
taste. Sabre’s delights in poetry, in
whimiscal humor, in democratic
ideals are not shared .by the prosaic
and snobbish Mabel.
In hours of leisure from his work
in the firm of Fortunes, East and
Sabre, church and school outfitters,
in which Sabre has charge of the
publishing department, Sabre visits
his eccentric but charming neigh
hois, Mr. Fargus and “the Perches:”
Young Perch and his invalid mother.
Suddenly another friend appears—
Nona. She is now Lady Tybar. Sa
bre, bicycling to work unexpectedly
meets Nona and her dashing hpsbanu,
Lord Tybar.
GO ON WITH THE STORY.
Lord Tybar’s lady, who was
twenty-eight, carried in her counte
nance and in her hair the pleasing
complement of her lord’s tan and
Olive hue and of his cropped black
poll. She was extraordinarily fair.
Her skin was of the hue and of the
sheen of creamy silk, and glowed be
neath its hue. It presented amaz
ing delicacy and yet an exquisite
firmness. Children, playing with her,
and she delighted in playing with
children (but she was childless,) oft
en asked to stroke her face. They
would stare at her face in that im
mensely absorbed way in which chil
dren stare, and then ask Z touch
her face and just stroke it; their ba
by fingers were not more softly silk
en. Os her hair Lady Tybar-had
said frequently from her girlhood u»i
wars, that it was “a mostsickening
nuisance.’ She bound it tightly as if
to punish and be firm with the sick
ening nuisance that it was to her.
Iler name was- Nona.
Out of a hundred people who
passed her by quite a considerable
number would have denied that she
was beautiful. Her face was round
and saucy rather than oval and clas
sical. Incontestable the striking at
traction of her complexion and of
her hair; but not beautiful—quite a
number would have said, and did
say. Oh, ho; pretty, perhaps, in a
way, but that’s all.
But her face was much more*than
beautiful to Sabre.
IV
Greetings had been exchanged; his
apologies for his blundering descent
upon them laughed at. Lord Tybar
was saying, “Well, it’s a tiger of a
place, this Garden Home of yours,
Sabre—”

“Lt’s not mine,” said Sabre. “God
forbid.”
“Ah, you’ve not got the same beau
tiful local patsf -A'in that 1 have: It s
one of my mrWU.Sgant qualities, my
passionate to my country
side.” w
“You’re a bloated aristocrat and a
bloodsucker,” Nona told him in her
clear, fine voice. “And you’re living
on estates which your brutal ances
tors ravaged from the people. That’s
what you are, Tony. I showed it you
in the Searchlight yesterday. And, 1
say, don’t use ‘elegant;’ that’s mine.”
“Oh, by gad, yes, so I am,” said
Lord Tybar. “Bloodsucker! Good
lord, fancy being a bloodsucker!”
He looked so genuinely rqeful and
abashed that Sabre laughed; and then
said to Nona, “Why is elegant
‘yours,’ Lady Tybar?”
She made a little pouting motion
at him with her lips. “Marko, 1 wish
to goodness you wouldn’t call me,
Lady Tybar. Dash it, we’ve called
one another Nona and Marko for
about a thousand years, long before
I ever knew Tony. And just because
I’m married—”
"And Sabre.” said Lord Tybar,
“what the devil does it m,atter what
a bloated robber minds, anyway?
That’s the way to look at me, Sabre.
Trample me underfoot, my boy. I’m
a pestilent survivor of the feudal
system, aren’t 1, Nona?”
“Absolutely. So, Marko, don’t be
a completer noodle than you already
are.”
“Ah, you are getting it now.” Lord
I Tybar murmured. “I’m a noodle,
I too, the Searchlight says.”
I He somehow gave Sabre the im-
I pression of taking an even deeper
I enjoyment in the incident between
' his life and Sabre than the enjoy
■ ment he clearly had in his own face
i tiousness. He Was slightly turned
! in his saddle so as to look .directly at.
; Nona, and he listened and interposed,
i and turned his eyes from her face to
Sabre’s, and from Sabre’s to hers,
with his handsome head slightly
cocked to one side and with much
gleaming in his eyes; rather as if he
i had on some private mock.
Fantastical notion! What mock
j could he have?
“Well, about my word ‘elegant’, ”
i Nona was going on, “and why it is
i mine—weren’t you asking?”
i Sabre said he had. “Yes, why
I yours?”
I “Why, Tony and I get fond of a
word and then we have it for our
I own, whichever of us it is, and use 't
for everything. And elegant’s mine
i just now. lin dreadfully fond of it.
I It's sc —well, elegant: there you are,
you see!”
The mare steadied again. She 1
stretched out her neck toward Sabre
and quivered her nostrils at him, j
sensing him. He put up a hand to ,
stroke her beautiful muzzle and she ‘
threw up- her head violently and I
swerved sharply around.
The mare was wheedled round '
again to her former position; against |
her will, but somehow as the natural I
result of her dancing. Marvelous
how he directed her caprices into
his own intentions and against her
own. But Lord Tybar was now
looking away behind him to where
the adjoining meadow sloped far
away and steeply to a copse. In the
hollow only the tops of the trees
could be seen. His eyes were
screwed up in distant vision. He
said, “Dash it, there’s that old
blighter Sooper. He’s been avoiding
me. Now I’ve got him. Nona, you
won’t mind getting back alone?”
He twisted the mare in a wonder
fully quick and dexterous movement.
“Goodby, Sabre. You don’t mind,
Nona?” And he flashed back a
glance. He lifted the mare over the

The features of the level valley be
young the brow where only he could
have seen the individual he sought,

I “He does everything better than any

I perfectly wonderful.” .
: These were enthusiastic words; but
she spoke, them without enthusiasm;
she merely pronounced them. “Well,
I’m off, too,” she said. “And what
about you, Marko? You’re going to
work, aren’t you? I don’t think you

and she laughed as though at some 1
■ amused memory of his devotion to
; work.
He laughed, too. They certainly
I had many recollections in common,
I though not all laughable. “I don’t
I think I'm quite so—so earnest as I
used to be,” he smiled.
"Ah, but I like you earnest,
Marko.”
There *lvas the tiniest silence be
tween them. Yet it seemed to Sabre
a very long silence.
She was again the one to speak,
and her tone was rather abrupt anu
high-pitched aXif she, too, were con
scious of a long silence and broke it
deliberately, as one breaks, with an
effort, constraint.
“And how’s Mabel?”
"She’s all right. She’s ever so
keen on this Garden Home business.”
“She would be,” said Nona.
“And so am I!” said Sabre. Some
thing in her tone made him say it
defiantly. •
She laughed. “I’m sure you are,
Marko. Well, goodby,” and as Derry
and Toms began to turn with his
customary sedateness of motion she
made the remark, “I’m so glad jou
don’t wehr trouser clips, Marko. 1
do loathe trouser dips.*'
lie told her that he rode “one of j
those chainless bikes.”
He said it rather mumblingly. Ex-'
, actly in that tone she used to say -
I things like, “I do like you in that
; brown suit, Marko.”
He resumed his ride. A mile far- j
| ther on he overtook, on a . light rise, ,
jan immense tree trunk slung be- '
tween thnee pairs of wheels and
dragged by two tremendous horses, I
harnessed tandemwi.-t. As he passed I
them came the smell of warm horse- '
flesh and his thought was “Pretty!” I
He shot ahead and a line came into J
his mind:
“Was this the face that launched
a thousand ships?”
Well, he had had certain aspira
tions, dreams, visions . . .

Sabre found but little business
awaiting him when he' got to his
office. He took out the manuscript

would think of it. He would like to
tell her about it.
Twyning came in.
Twyning was of middle height,
very thin, black-haired. His clean
shaven face was deeply furrowed in
rigid-looking furrows which looked as
though shaving would be an intricate
operation. He held himself very
stiffly and spoke stiffly as though
the cords of his larynx were also
rigidly inclined. When not speaking
he had a habit of breathing rather
noisily through his nose as if he
were doing deep breathing exercises.
He was married and had a son of

eighteen and doing well in < lawyer’s
office. ,
He came in and closed the door.
He had a sheet of paper in his hand.

I recommend your Vegetable Compound
to my friends for female troubles.”—
Mrs. Della Scholz, 1-112 Salisbury
Street, St. Louis, Mo.
Just think for a moment. Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has
been in use for nearly fifty years. It is
prepared from medicinal plants, by the
utmost pharmaceutical skill, and supe
rior methods. The ingredients thus
combined in the Compound correct the
conditions which cause such annoying
symptoms as had been troubling Mrs.
Scholz. The Vegetable Compound exer
cises a restorative influence of the most
desirable laracter, correcting the trou
ble in a gentle but efficient manner.
This is noted, by the disappearance, one
after another, of the disagreeable
BymptoLis.
