Daysey Mayme And Her Folks By FRANCES L. OARS IDE. M RR. LYSANDER JOHN AP PLETON put down her news paper with a look of deep con cern. As a member of the Sisterhood of Struggling 1 Women ihe felt that some incentive to struggle had beei, left out of her life. The account of the meeting of the Sisterhood of Struggling Women told much of the brutality of man. Dele gate after delegate bore wltnes# to the habits of husbands of demand ing that their wives acoount for every cent they spent. Mrs. Lysander John had never been held to account, and, overwhelmed with the passion for martyrdom which Is now engulf ing her sex, she felt that she had been wronged. “He hasn't asked it," she thought, "but I know that he Is wondering what I did with the ten dollars lie gave me yesterday. I will put my self within the pale of martyrdom and suffer with my sisters by giving him a detailed account hereafter of every cent I spend. "When it oomen to suffering for the Cause, I will never have it said of me that I shirked my shark." That evening, when Lysander John had retired behind his newspaper and was settling to his own satisfaction the Mexican problem, his wife began: "You gave me $10 yesterday.” Lysander John looked over his pa per, nodded, and went back to Huerta, Hearing his wife’s voice again, ha absent-mindedly began to fumble in the pocket where he kept his cash. “I aim prepared," he heard his wlfa say, "to account for every cent I hava spent of it.” Lysander John was deciding that if he were Wilson he would let the Mexicans fight it out, and was Inter rupted in the soothing thoughts of how Lysander John Appleton, Presi dent of the United States, had, by his masterly brain, restored peace to our warring neighbor by the following monologue: “Ice man. 10 cents: 35 cents for milk; $1.75 for having your suit pressed; 15 cents, starch; 5 cent?, bluing; 33 cents, meat; 2 cents, soup bone; 11 cents, silk twist; 11 cents, ditto; 11 cents, rflitto; 5 cents, tape: 4 I cents, buttons; 16 cents, whalebone; 16 cents, ditto; 10 cents, thread; 10 cents, ditto; 10 cents, ditto; 10 cents, ditto; 12 cents, hooks and eyes; 13 cents, ditto; 12 cents, ditto; 12 cents, ditto; 12 cents, dit •" But she read no more, for Lysander John, reaching across the table, tore the list from her hand and stamped it on the floor. “For heaven’s sake," he cried, "why tell me all that? "What do I care hew you spend it, just so yon let me alone? Here is another ten. For the sake of Mike go and spend all of It on dittoes if you like, but keep still about it!" "If the men." he grumbled to him self a little later when alone in his den. "had to listen to the account of how their wives spend every penny, there wouldn’t be insano asylums to hold them." But somehow Mrs. Lysander John was not satisfied. Those who long to suffer martyrdom seldom are. (Novelized by> The Quickest, Simplest Cough Remedy Easily and Home.

And to the man on guard outside he called: ".Sergeant, keep everyone away from that window." Now was Larry Holbrook's chance. Intermittent flashes of light showed that Dempster wan making a careful search outside the house. Holbrook determined to make as careful a search of the room. Keeping a wary eye on Donnell, who was sturdily stand ing guard at the window, he searched rapidly about the desk and Its vicinity. There were papers which ho must not allow to rustle ever so slightly—there was that pitiful little roll of treasury bills, letters, typed briefs, but no clew A little moan of impatience and fear threatened to burst from his heart and wing its betraying path across bis lips. Holbrook's eyes flashed and his lips tightened.

He had fairly been holding his breath, lie wanted to shout and exult, but he controlled himself. lie gave one wry glance at the emerald brooch, put that dangerous bit of evidence in the pocket of his dinner coat, shut Flagg's Angers hack into their gripping position and then carefully wiped off hls hands on the black cloth of his suit.

Everything is as It Ia> s.** Dempster began to examine the floor, slowly working toward the window — clutch of the dead man did not relax. Judson Flagg seemed to have carried with him beyond the grave the power to hold what he desired—to demand his price. Donnell coughed. Holbrook quickly dropped that resisting dead hand and began Angering the roll of bills with a show of interest. There was quiet again. And again Holbrook took that clammy dead hand In his. He pried at the Angers with grim determi nation. They yielded their secret. Holbrook clutched dizzily at the desk —he felt he must have some support In this moment of agonizing revelation.

Set over hls eyes were straight, heavy brows that had a way of liftfhg at the corners like a French man’s hands. The lips were fixed in determination now Larry Holbrook would fight. The brows were set In straight lines of strength and beneath their battlements his eyes were half closed. They wore j the expression they had learned to take i when he searched for places for ari j enemy hid behind the cactus or the | mesa or the shifting dimes of treacher- j ous sand. Back of those eyes plan and deter- | initiation were forming. But was it love or chivalry that spurred him now? The tin box Flagg had not found time to lock in his safe caught Hol brook's eye. He crossed to it quickly, picked it up and tried in deft silence to open it—ami then Donnell’s voice star tied him: "How many times have 1 got to tell you to stand back there?" The voice rang out in the grim still ness some venturing soul for whom the i room of violent death held a morbid j charm skulked off in the night. At the sound of the voice, Holbrook ' had set the stage of his own actions ] with deft quickness.
