( ( T SAW Will Gas* Corey last
nlte,” sed Pa to Ma. "He was
looking fine, and he tells me
that he Is making mnnny so fast
rttelng short stories that he has all
he can do to spend It all. Do you
know, wife, Pa sed, I bellere t Will
go in for short story rltedng. Corey
sed It wasent hard, onst yon got
started."
It may not be very hard for MlsteT
Corey, sed Ma, but rltelng Is a thing
peenjl cant lern. It has to be born
in them, sed Ma, the salm as poets
& collectors are bom & not made.
Anybody can be a collector, sed Pa.
I doant see why you class them with
poets. All a collector has to do Is
to collect munny.
I doant think that Is vary eesy, Ma
sed. My father was a lawyer for a
few years, Ma sed, unttl he found out
that moast of his law blzness was to
malk eolleckshuns, fk he newer had
the hart to collect. He used to oa.1
on sumbody & wen the lady of the
house wnd cry Pa wud go back to bis
law offis & send the bill back to the
oredltor & say that It was no good.
Poor, deer father, he ts gone now.
With his kind hart.
Doant be all the time talking about
yure relaehtons, sed Pa. Getting baok
to this short-story thing, I reely
meen that I am going In for It. Jest
think how proud you wud be If yure
nabors cud pick up the magaseen A
see yure husband’s big nolm at the
hed of short stories. You cud seven
reed sum of the stories aloud to
them, Pa sed, & think how proud you
wud be to open my mall & see nice
Mg checks from tbs different maga-
zeens.
, She Is Doubtfm.
The check part of It, tlssens good,
sed Ma, but you have blit so many
cassels In Spain without ever having
to buy any furniture for the cassels
that I will naterally be a llttel du
bious, Ma sed, until the checks oum
rolling in.
Oh. the checks win cum rotting to
all rite, Pa sed. Doant worry about
that part of it, & after thay cum
rolling In we will put sum of them In
the bank & we can send llttel Bobble
to college & talk a trip to Europe
every year. 'Won’t that be fine?
It wud be fine to talk the trip to
Europe every year, sed Ma, but I
doant think we shud go to the expense
of sending Bobble to college now. He
knows too much as It is, Ma sed, &
the munny that you wud lay out for
tooitlon cud better be used by me to
git up a nice lot of clothes to wars
wen we are touring the Continent &
the British lies. Of course, sed Ma,
I you wuddent expeck me to go to Eu-
‘ rope with the few clothes I have now.
I want you to he proud of yure llttel
wife won you taik her abroad, Ma sed.
I suppoas we can arrange all that,
sed Pa. & send Bobbie to college, too.
They Cost a Lot.
I fear that we can not <?o both, sed
Ma. . You know, deer, that women’s
' clothes cost a awful lot moar than
thay used to. If you have yure hart
so set on sending Bobble to college,
Ma sed, I suppoas I can stay at hoam
& not go to Europe. Oh, deer, sed
Ma, I mite have known It. Then Ma
beegan to cry.
Thare, thare, deerest, sed Pa.
Yes. I might have known it, Ma sed.
Stay at hoam and see the sairn old
cities oaver and oaver while Missus
Black and Missus White are enjoying
themselfs with thare husbands oaver
In Europe. Thay go every year & you
bet thay doant have to worry about
what thay are going to ware, eether.
Then Ma cried sum moar.
If you go on like that, sed Pa, I
won’t rite any short stories at all.
Nobody wud print them if you rote
them, sed Ma.
I doant see why wimmen can’t be
reesonabel like us men.

In the days gone by they had been
sweethearts; but, alas, hatred ts ever
akin to love, and the relationship
had changed In this case.
One day the former lover had to
make a business call on the girl’s
father, and, of course, It so hap
pened that she answered the door.
"I beg your pardon,” said the young
man, keeping his nerve In the trying
circumstances remarkably well, "Miss
Perkins, I think. Is your father in?”
"No, he’s not, I’m sorry to say. Did
you wish to see him personally?”
asked the maiden, without the slight
est sign of recognition showing In
her eyes.
"Yes; but It will do to-morrow.
Thank you. I will call again! Good
afternoon! ”
, But this was too much. As he
i reached the bottom step, the lady
spoke:

THEY ARE RIGHT.
T~)EAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am twenty-one, and deeply
In love with a young man one
year my junior. We have been
keeping company for two years.
He Is sick In bed and the doctors
advise him to leave the city for
his health. He wants me to mar
ry Mm before he leaves the city,
and live with his parents, who
like me very much. My parents
object to the marriage.
VIOLET R.
There are many objections to Ms
plan. You must not marry a man
who Is In bod health; you must not
marry until he can take you to a home
of your own, and you must not marry
when your parents object.
Are not these enough?
NO.
r\EAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am nineteen and deeply In
levs with a man of twenty-three.
We were very lovable for a time,
but a girl friend of mine changed
his mind entirely by telling him
he can get a rich girl with money
Instead of a poor girl.
Should I waste my time waiting
for him? I love him and fear I
can’t do without him.
STELLA.
You are wasting your time and
emotion In caring for a man whose
heart can be turned »o lightly.
Don’t say you can not do without
him. You can do It, and very com
fortably, too.

' HERE is the bachelor—so easy-going, ‘‘hard-game,” arrow-proof—who does not sit
back and, shifting a certain loneliness which he dubs ‘‘care” from his busy brain,
dream such a dream as this in his cigarette smoke—-a bit of a bungalow in the wind
ing shades of a canon, with a fireplace in it and roses over the door, the fine wine of twilight
over it all, a little woman shading her eyes, her skirts blowing in the coming>-night wind, holding
tight the hand of a stubby, tanned-kneed baby, waiting for him at the end of the path! There’ll
be a dog, too—maybe not a thoroughbred—(though the first two are all right)—and maybe a
little tame deer in a wire enclosure under the trees—and—and—— Where is the bachelor who
does not plan his little institution—whose care never casts anchor in the harbor of a dream?

S HE was about 19 and she wore
a canoe shaped hat with one
red rose dandling rakishly off
the back of the brim. Her cheeks
were as pink as a baby’s. The head-
gear of her male companion had a lit
tle bow at the rear. His trousers had
cuffs at the ankles and he had not
shaved often enough to have acquired
the whitish-gray complexion of a
grown up man. The two fell into the
chairs at the little table in the con
fectionery store and ordered choco
late sodas with the exuberance of
youth.
“Goodness'!" said she, following
with her red eyes a middle-aged
couple who had entered and taken a
table In a corner. “Shouldn’t you
think when people were as old as that
they would have got over raring for
soda water and Ice cream ?”
Pretty Old.
“I should say so,” agreed the young
man. His expression was distinctly
pitying as he watched the newcomers.
The man was getting portly, and while
the woman’s hair was arranged in the
latest mode it was sprinkled with
gray and she had a decided matronly
look. One could be certain that she
had tucked all the children in bed
before she and dad started for their
evening stroll.
“Wouldn’t you hate to be as old as
that?” said the young man. “What do
you suppose people find to enjoy in
life at that age?”
“Goodness knows!” said the pretty
girl. “They can’t go to dances any
more, and to have gray hair I
should think would be perfectly
awful! I read about a woman once
who was a famous beauty and when
she found her first gray hair she died
of a broken heart. I know just how
she felt!”
“You’ll never get gray!” comforted
the young man. “Not If you live to
be 100. But I should think people like
those over there would envy young
folks like us when they saw them
getting so much enjoyment out of
life! Why. they aren’t even talking
to each other only now and then!
They’re just bored with existence. I
don’t wonder!”
“I should think,” said the pretty
girl as she daintily poised her spoon
and watched the persons under dis
cussion, “that they’d feel kind of silly
coming in here and ordering anything
so Juvenile as sodas! It seems funny,
somehow! You never think of old
people liking such things!”
“We’ll never be as old as that,” said
he young man meditatively. “We
won’t let ourselves get so old. I can’t
imagine you getting old, anyway.
You’ll always be Just as slim and
girlish as you are now ”
“And think of you as fat as that
man.” She trilled with laughter. “I
suppose they have grown so apathetic
that they don’t care! Poor things!”
Meanwhile the middle-aged man in

Relentless Time, that gives both

Brave lot me be
To take thy various gifts with equal

Give me my dreams!

Plunge not to deep the knife;

F. I. Fletcher, at the Sphinx Club din
ner in New York, told an advertising
story.
“A man,” he said, “entered a shop
one bitter cold day and bought a woolen
muffler. When he opened the muffTler,
he found Inside it the photograph of a
beaut! 1 girl, together with a note say
ing;
“ *If you are single, please write to
me.’
“A name and address followed, and
the man smiled. He was single, and he
put the photograph on his sitting room
mantel. There, every evening, looking
up from his book, he beheld It. It was
very beautiful, and in a week he had
fallen head over heels in love.
“So he wrote to the girl. Another
week passed, a week of anxious, nerve-
racking suspense. Then the lovesick
map received this crushing letter:
*'’Sir: The Mary Smith to whom
you wrote was mV grandmother. She

TO-DAY‘S INSTALLMENT.
Glider sighed resignedly. Hl» heavy
face was lined with anxiety. There
was a hestltatlon In hie manner of
.speech that was wholly unlike its
usual quick decisiveness.
"I don’t like this sort of thing," he
said, doubtfully. "I let you go ahead
because I can’t suggest any alterna
tive, but I don’t like it, not at all. It
seems to me that other methods
might be employed with excellent re
sults without the element of treachery
which seems to Involve me as well as
you In our efforts to overcome this
woman,”
Burke, however, had no qualms as
to such plotting.
“You must have crooked ways to
catch crooks, believe me," he said
oheerfutly. “It's the easiest and the
quickest way into trouble for them.”
The return of the detectives caused
him to break off, and he gave his at
tention to the final arrangements of
his men.
"You're in charge here,” he said to
Cassidy, "and I hold you responsi
ble. Now, listen to this, and get It."
His coarse voice came with a grat
ing note of command. "I’m coming
back to get this bunch myself, and
I'll obH you when you’re wanted.
You’ll wait in the storeroom out there
and don't make a move till you hear
from me, unless by any chance things
go wrong and you get a call from
Griggs. You know who he Is. He’s
got a whistle, and he’ll use It If nec
essary. • • * • Got, that straight?"
And when Cassidy had declared an
entire understanding of the directions
given, he concluded concisely. "On
your way, then!"
He Turned to Gilder.
As the men left the room, he turned
again to Glider,
“Just one thing more," he said. ’Til
have to have your help a little longer.
After I’ve gone, I want you to stay up
for a half hour anyhow, with the lights
burning. Do you see? I want to be
sure to give the Turner woman time
to get here while that gang Is at work.
Your keeping on the Tights will hold
them back, for they won’t come In
till the house Is dark, so, in half an
hour you can get off the Job, switch
off the lights and go to bed and stay
there—Just as I told you before.”
Then Inspector Burke, having In mind
the great distress of the man over
the unfortunate entanglement of his
son, was at pains to offer a reassuring
word.
"Don't worry about the hoy,” he
said, with grave klhdlinoss. "We’ll
get him out of this scrape all right."
And with the assertion he bustled out,
leaving the unhappy father to miser
able forebodings.
CHAPTER XVII.
Outside the Law.
G ILDER scrupulously followed the
directions of the Police In
spector. Uneasily, he had re
mained In the library until the al
lotted time was elapsed. He fidgeted
from place to place, his nrlnd heavy
with distress under the shadow that
threatened to blight the life of his
cherished son.
Finally, with a sense of relief he
put out the lights and went to his
chamber. But he did not follow the
further directions given him, for he
was not minded to go to bed. In
stead, he drew the curtains closely
to make sure that no gleam of light
could pass them, and then sat with
a cigar between his lips, which he
did not smoke, though from time to
time he was at pains to light It.
His thoughts were most with his
son, and ever as he thought of Dick,
his fury waxed against the woman
who had enmeshed the boy In her
plotting for vengeance on himself.
And into his thoughts now crept a
doubt, one that alarmed his sense of
Justice. It occurred to him that this
woman could not have thus nourish

years unless. Indeed, she had been

lie could not bear to admit the pos
sibility of having been the involun
tary lnflicter of such wrong as to send
the girl to prison for an offense she
had not committed. He rejected the
suggestion, but it persisted. He knew
the clean, wholesome nature of his
son. It seemed to him incredible that
the boy could have thus given hts
heart to one altogether undeserving.
A horrible suspicion that he had
misjudged Mary Turner crept Into his
brain, and would not out. He fought
It with all the strength of him, and
that was much, but ever It abode
there. He turned for comfort to the
things Burke had said. The woman

the Joy of ft was a torture, for the
puppet of her plans, the son, had sud
denly become the chief thing In her
life. She had taken, it for granted
that he would leave her after he came
to know that her marriage to him
was only a device to bring shame on
his father. Instead, he loved her.
That fact seemed the secret of her
distress. He loved her. More, he
