"You can take your choice between a poor house in a good neigh borhood and a good house in a poor neighborhood. "If you have a good house In a poor neighborhood your little Cedric and Kenneth and Quentin will be con tarn i nated by contact with those common Awfulwaflfle children and the horrid young Beansirales. And if you take a poor house in a good neighborhood your children will hang wistfully upon the fence and watch the haughty Stalkswag- gers children, exclusive young Many- bridges and the stuck-up little Snippy- doodles at play. "If a house Is perfect in every other respect the landlord will live too near. You are not at first suspicious of the fact that there is a handy little gate by which he can enter your back yard.

Cain had no definite idea in view except to drive a considerable distance out of town and have it out with this j stranger. Hitherto his money had en abled him to have his way in every - ! thing and he had ridden roughshod : over every obstacle that presented I itself in his path, so that the idea : that he wa.«* a sort of demi-god had become firmly Implanted in his na- ! ture. In the case in hand he did not stop to realize that his money was of little use to him. Ho was blind j with rage. He attributed his mis understanding with Mildred to the passenger in the back seat. Cain re solved to eliminate this stranger from his affairs. He tried to get more speed out of the car. hut by this time the roads were growing worse and worse as they got further out of town. They had passed the limit of electric lights and except for the rays of the powerful headlights every thing was in inky darkness They must have driven all of half an hour and were a good fifteen miles from where they started, when Cain, spying a road that branched off to the left, turned into it Up to this point Gordon Kelly, in the back seat, had made no movement whatever. He might have been asleep, for all Cain knew. But the car had not traveled a furlong on the branch road before he gave evidence that he was very much awake. With a spring as light as a panther he vaulted over the back of the front seat and landed lightly beside Cain. Reaching down he switched off the magneto, pulled ou\ the plug and dropped it into his coat pocket. Al most instantly, the motor stopped and the car came to a standstill. CHAPTER Vm. R eaching down to the coil box, Cain discovered the plug was not there. “Where’s that plug?*’ he demanded, fiercely. “I have it in my pocket.’' replied Kelly, quietly. ‘Something is likely to happen pretty quick, but as I don’t know just what it is, I thought I would be on the safe aide, that’s all.” "Who are you?” cried Cain. ’’ I will tell you who I am, but first I want to know if I am talking to a crazy man, a fool, or a joker,” an swered Kelly. While he was speaking he was fumbling in his pockets. He now drew forth a match which he held up to the other’s face. Cain blew it out almoat as quickly as it ignited but Kelly had seen enough. "Oh, you’re the Deerys’ chauffeur.” he observed calmly. "You’re the man who nearly ran over me the other day. Well, did your employer tell you to dive me out here, or did you do it on your own hook?” ‘Tin not a chauffeur." exclaimed Cain hotly. “I’m a friend of the Decry family and, if you want to know, I brought you here on my own hook. What are you going to do about it?” “You are certainly a queer sort. What is your object? Is this a hold up game?” Did you bring me out here to rob me?” “Rob you; no!” shouted Cain. “I can buy and sell you a million times!” The calmness of the man seated be side him acted as a kind of reverse English on Cain. He had been angry all along, but was now furolus and “H’ ERE comes Johnny!” ex claimed Mrs. Jones, sighing disconsolately. “He must have been awfully good to-day—for he’s as dirty as a little pig. and he's an hour late!” Her caller opened her eyes in amazement. "Awfully good?” she re peated “Why, when my Sammy comes home late and Is dirty 1 usually know that he’s been into some sort of mischief. It’s never a sign of being particularly good to my eyes” “Well, your Sammy doesn’t go to the same school,” returned Mrs. Jones. “Johnny has a pretty and stylish teacher, and. what’s more, she knows how to make her pupils like her. They all fight to do things for her! 1 learned all about it when I w'ont to call on her one day after Johnny had brought home a perfect report card For a whole month he’d been coming home late and looking perfectly, dreadful—you-’d think he was a street Arab 1 have never been able to get anything out of him. ex cept that he’d stayed after school to clean the blackboards.

"No.” “Who does own it?” • The Davis Garage.” Kelly took the plug from his pocket. | inserted it in the coil box and switch ed on the spark. “Crank It,” he ordered. Without a word Cain gave the mo tor a whirl and the machinery start - 1 ed w ith a roar. Kelly jumped in j the driver’s seat and, evidently sure of every movement, eased in the re versed gear and backed the car off, the road with a view of heading it in the other direction. This accom- , plished, he called Cain to the side) of the car and said: By Dorothy Dix Might Lose Temper. “This may appear a childish act on my part, blit I’m going to leave you | here to find your way back to town I the best way* you can. It will do you good to think the w'hole matter over carefully. I don’t know yet what your object was In bringing me away out here. Is there anything you want to say to me?" Cain made no answer. “Very’ well,” continued Kelly. “I will probably be able to figure it out for myself in the course of time. You are evidently one of those rich young fellows that have more money than brains. I never met one before, but I have read about them ip newspa pers, My name Is Gordon Kelly and I live at the Imperial Hotel. It is possible that you will be seeking some kind of revenge on me, but let me warn you to leave me severely alone. If you annoy me any further I am liable to lose my temper and Dord help you if anything like that comes to pass.” This may sound like heroics deliv ered by a stage hero in a melodrama, hut as a matter of fact Kelly spoke calmly and seriously. It was simply his way. Waiting a moment longer and re ceiving no response from Cain, Kelly started the car and slowly plowed his way through the mud to the main road, where the going was much bet ter, leaving Cain to shift for himself He drove carefully back to the city and reached his hotel in about an hour. Instead of stopping there, however, he continued on three or four blocks and slowed down next the sidewalk in front of the Capital City Club and left the car, standing there. Walking hack to. his hotel he went to the desk and asked for his key. He was splashed with mud from head to foot and Clerk McCiendon eyed him suspiciously for a moment, but as Kelly did not seem disposed to of fer any explanation, he silently pass ed over the room key. When Kelly reached his room, he went to the telephone, called up Davis' garage and said: “You remember sending a car to Mr. Deery’s house about 9:30 to night? Well, you will find the car in front of the Capital City Club and if you want to know anything more about it you will have to see the man you sent along as chauffeur Good night.” Gordon Kelly then peeled off his mud-bespattered clothes, threw, them on the floor of his bathroom, took a bath, crawled between the bedsheets j and five minutes later was sleeping 1 the sleep of the just. Who was this young man from the mountains who knew all about handling automobiles? How did he acquire his calm manner? Where did he gain that easy and confident bearing? Whence came the breed ing that enabled him to enter one of the “best” houses in Atlanta and con duct himself as though he had beenj brought up in “society?” • * * Forrest Cain, chewing the bitter cud of reflection, walked for more than an hour in the direction of the city before he got a lift. Then a friend ly milkman came along and he rode the rest of the way in. Going to his room, he kicked the sleeping George out of bed and made him attend to his w r ants. Cain remained in bed all next day. His trunks bad gone to New York and that night he followed them to the metropolis. To Be Continued Monday. “H‘ OUSE HUNTING," said the man who is boarding with the Pikers until he can get a home and bring his wife and children to HERE are few more valuable animals than the Lamb, whether you consider it from the mint sauce or the Wall Street point I of view. In either capacity it is our meat and f u r n 1 shes glad raiment and diamonds to those who, but for it, would not slain a dozen take Its place. Indeed, against the cold blasts of Winter. The name of the individual who discovered the first Lamb is lost in the mists of antiquity, but as a source of supplies he has got the individual who made two blades of grass grow where only one grew before beat a city block. Thus are we called upon again to marvel at the wisdom of a beneficent Providence that has creat ed just the proper thing to meet our every need. Lambs are found in all parts of the known world, and appear to multiply with great rapidity, so that as one Is slain a dozen take its place. Indeed the theory is held on Wall Street that a new batch of Lambs is bom every second, but this probably exaggerates the situation. At any rate, the Lamb crop for the last year or two has been so poor that many brokers have been forced to -prey on one another. In appearance the Lamb Is of a mild and pleasing aspect with a voice that sounds like the amateur soloist who kindly consents to sing at a club din ner. Originally the Lamb Is of a snow white color, but after a short sojourn away from its native haunts it is apt to need a hurry trip to the laundry. It gets soiled very quickly. In the matter of T~3flm legs the Lamb Is eclectic, some Lambs having four, one located on each corner, while other Lambs have only two. which are situated at the extreme northeast end of their anatomy, thus enabling them to stand up right after the manner of men. Also, some Lambs have alfalfa on their chins, while others have smooth faces, but this difference depends on whether they came from the middle West or not. We may dismiss the quadruped Lamb in a few words, merely stating, in passing, that It has of late devel oped an ambitious and aspiring ten dency to rise skyward under the tui tion of Messrs. Armour and Swift, and that it has shown a coy disposition to stay In cold storage that every one who has the good of the country at heart must deplore. However, that great veterinarian Professor Wilson, late of Princeton University, we un-. derstand, has pcAr u n d e r t a ken th% moral regenera- tjon of the Lamb, and eke the beef, and the pig, and we may Hope Is see some needed reforms instituted in this line. It is in the two- legged Lamb (ge nus suckibus) that the trained nat uralist finds his most' interesting study. This amiable creature lives apparent ly only to give pleasure to others, which It does by the simple expedient of suffering itself to be sheared by any artistic trimmer that happens along. ' ’ ' * This Is great sport, and it Is a mat ter of pride that .our VV'ftfl Street brokers hold the world’s record as the champion fleecers of Lambs Being so gentle and kind, the Lamb, especially the woolly ones from Pitts burgh, are held In great esteem by women as pets. There was Once a chorus girl named Mary who had a little Lamb, with a fleece as white as snow, and everywhere that Mary went his money’ did surely go—but that’s another story. Lambs are gen erally of the mas culine persuasion, though occasional ly we observe an elderly female mutton dressed as Spring Lamb ca- j perlng around at the dansant. There are many curious sights in nature, and this Is one of the curlousest. Not What He Meant. Jones and Long had not met for t years. Once—that Is, tn the days when both had been striving fob fame in their different professions—• they had been really good chums, and many a talk had* they enjoyed to gether by the fireside as to the little places they would take in the coun try "when their ships came home.” The dream of Jones has been real ized. and now, although a portly old” ' fellow, it was with a sense of real ' pleasure that he prepared for a visit from his former friend. “Ah, it’s splendid seeing you down, here, Long!” he said cordially, by way of greeting. “Quite like old times'—• what? And the missus, I know, is longing to shake you by the hand. But first—yes, you must come along and have a look at my greenhouse. You simply must I” And Long went. “Well, Jones,’! he said, “you’ve got a mighty pretty place down here; but, to my mind, It’s just a bit bare.” “Oh.” replied Jones cheerfully, “that’s because the trees are bo young!- Next time you come—why, they'll be so big that you won’t recognize them!” There is a large missionary school in Tokto where the teaching is given in English. One of the pupils not long ago wrote a composition on England, from which these are extracts: “The England which occupied of the largest and greatest dominion which rarely can be. The Englishman always works with very powerful hands and the long legs, and even the emmenced mind and his chin is so strong as de serves iron. Being spread out from Europe to Australia to America his do minion is dreadfully extensive, so that his countrymen boastfully says, “The sun are never set on our dominion.’ The testimony of England say that ‘he that ! lost the common sense, he never had any benefit, though he has gained a complete world.’ The English are cun ning mention to establish a great Empire of the Paradise.

I thought Johnny was singularly un concerned about it—but, then, you know, you can never tell about boys “Well, it seemed that Johnny’s teacher had had such a dme trying not to seem to play favorites that she had adopted a system of rewards.

Johnny grinned happily, “I had 95 in geography and 100 in spelling—so she let me have all the boards to night,” he answered, triumphantly. “And last week F'rank had the bell— and he came late, so she said if I’d come early to-morrow and he wasn’t there I could have It. Anyway, he cheats!- And I’ve a good mind to tell her! ” “Will you run to—” began Mrs. Jones, but Johnny interrupted her as he turned to go. “Yes. but just wait. I’ve got to see a fellow that’s waiting out here!” And Johnny was gone. “My, I wish I knew her system,” declared Mrs. Jones, enviously. “And errands are such nice, clean work:" sympathized the caller, glanc ing at the coating of chalk dust that had settled on the rug. “Maybe if you tell him it’s a reward?” But Mrs. Jones smiled and shook her hoad. “I’m not a teacher!" she replied. move “Naxt you note with concern that he and his wife are exceedingly familiar with the history of all the people who have occupied the pren ises before you.

"I’m not muck used to city ways aud 1 thought at first you had been ordered to tAkfc me on a little drive, though Jt is a mighty queer night for it.

If you have been drinking, you ought to be sober enough by now. If it’s a Joke. I’ll take it as such and let it go at that.” Fain ignored the question. “What were you doing in Deery’s house to-night,” he snarled. “I was Invited there, but-—” “You’re a liar!” screamed Cain, making a movement as if to struggle out of his seat behind the wheel of the automobile. Just Chastisement. As quick as the stroke of a cat Kelly shot up his right hand and his fingers closed on Cain's collar with tiie strength of a vise. With the same movement he Jerked Cain’s head down to the floor of the car. He sent his left foot crashing through the side curtains* which had been fastened on to exclude the rain, and thus clear ing a passage, as it were, he jumped to the ground, dragging the strug gling Cain after him like a sack of meal. Cain fell in the muddy road with a splash. Still holding his man by the collar. Kell^ ankle deep in mud, hauled him around in front of the car and deposited him there in the full glare of the searchlights. “Now we can see what we are doing," he remarked and In spite of the effort he had made to drag a man of Cain’s size, his respiration was hardly above normal. Cain scrambled to his feet and with a vile epithet rushed at his antagonist. But Kelly, who had a reach like Bob Fitzsimmons, simply put out one hand and Cain ran blindly into it and stopped short. With one powerful shove Kelly sent the other man reel ing backward and, losing his balance, Cain fell with another splash in the mud. In two jumps Kelly stood over him. “There’s only one thing to do to a man like you,” he said "Get up.” Cain lay motionless, blinking up at Kelly as though he had just been awakened from a bad dream. “Get up,” ordered Kelly again. But Cain refused to move so, reach ing down Kelly inserted hi* fingers In the collar of his foe and yanked him to his feet. Then, turning him around, and facing him up the road, Kelly stepped hack one pace and delivered a solid kick in Cain’s nether region. There is nothing that will take the fight out of a man sooner than a weighty kick, placed where It will do the most good. There is nothing so humiliating to the recipient, nothing so mortifying, so abasing. Such was the effect on Cain. He started to run up the road, but Kelly followed him and executed a series of blows with the foot, of astonishing power and accuracy. At last, grabbing Cain by the collar once more, he turned him around and kicked him back to the headlights. Cain was covered from head to foot with the red mud of Georgia and Kelly's clothing was so splashed with it that very little of the material showed. The rain had practically ceased and only a fine mist was fall ing. Away off ln the distance could be seen the glow of the lights of At lanta reflected above that city. The rays of the powerful headlights fell full on the two young men. It was * A Reward of Merit A Complete Short Story ^ The Truth About England The Drawbacks
