»*>• Saves Girl’s Life And She Refuses to Tell Hinl Her Name. By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. Dear Miss Fairfax: Coming down (own the other day I got in front of a car. The car dodged and I dodged and before I quite knew what was happening a man pulled me back into safety. He scolded me a little for dodging in front of a car, saying it was much better to stand still, and then started to walk on in my direction with me. We had a pleasant conversation and by the time I came to my turn he asked if he might in troduce himself, telling me his name. 1 told him I didn't pick u(j acquaint ances on the street, even when they saved by life. Did I do right? RESCUED. P. S. He had dirty teeth. X think thi* man was taking advan tage of the situation. Whether or not you told him your name isn't im portant. You struck the point (resent ment of his attitude) by what you did. although I think, too, you could have told him your name in such a way that he would have asked no more questions. Evidently his attitude im pressed you as wrong, and that is the point. Had he been thoroughly a gentleman, and wished to know your name, he might have volun teered his and left it for you to offer yours. I am not worried about you for the tone of your letter indicates you can take good care of yourself, and I am glad of that. Dotty: You know as well as I do that you have no right to accept at tentions from a married man. The man is a cad and no good can come of this friendship. You don’t need my advice, my dear. Front the tone of your letter I know that your conscience is telling you to drop him, and the soon er you do, the better. Blue Eyes: Accept his invitations oc casionally. but don’t give up all your friends. Even if you are not in love With him, there is no reason why you shouldn't go out with him if you en joy being with him.

Adele Garrison “My Husband's Love"’ How Madge Rushed to Try to l)o What Dicky Asked. The train, the last by which I could hope to rcac hthe city in time to get Dicky’s evening clothes to the tailor, chug-chugged its noisy way out of the station. After satisfying myself that Alfred Durkee was nowhere in sight, I took a taxi and made all possible speed to the Durkee home, bargaining with the driver on the way for a trip to the city, if I should find that Dicky’s suitcases were still at the house. I wondered worriedly if there had been some unexfx-oted happening at the Durkees. But the worry eased and rlignged suddenly to irritation when, as T ascended the veranda steps, after telling the driver to wait for me, the door opened suddenly and r^ella, registering strong astonish ment and remorseful confusion, flew out to meet me. I/Hiu Didn't Understand. "Madge!” she exclaimed excitedly. "Don't tell me you said the three thirty-one train! 1 though you meant you changed at three I hlrty-one. 1 looked it up and there was a change at three-thirty-four, so I thought that must be the train you meant. That would have brought you here at four forty. and Alf ment to meet you then. Oh. I’m so sorry! Has it mixed up ycur plans, and what can I do?” She was so absolutely ingenuous, so honestly distressed, that my irritation vanished instantly. But I could not help comparing the manner in which she had mixed things up for me, with the calm. certain efficiency with which Lillian Underwood or Kather ina Burkett would have handled the matter. Know Leila's propensity to get things twisted, Dicky dubs her "charmingly inefficient." and the characterization fits her snugly. I had been strongly tempted, when she answered the telephone, to ask foi Alfred, that I might he sure of his meeting the train. But fearing to offend her—she is sensitive to the extreme—I, instead, had taken pin ticular pains to make the train di reeiions minute and exact, and had repeated them two or three time'-. How she managed to get them twist ed, I had no idea, and moreover, I never would know, for, of course, I could not question her. "It doesn't matter a bit.” I uttered the falsehood unblushing!}’, and kissed her with real warmth—it would be a hard hearted person, indeed, who could retain wrath against so gentle and sweet a creature as I^ella Durkee. "I can catch a train at Valley Stream. If I can get the suitcases right away. But I won't have time to see your mother-in-law. ” "The suitcases are right here In the hall.” she replied. "Alf put them here so they would be ready. And Mother Durkee's asieen—poor dear!—after a bard day. Alf is sitting with her. and I've been watching the door, so I could keep people from ringing the bell. I told Central not to ring us on the telephone either, unless the mes sage was a long distance one " "Then that's all right. I said re lieved that I would, not be delayed further. "I’ll run out tomorrow if I possibly can.” I directed the taxi driver to put the suitcases In the car and with a hurried but affectionate adieu to Delia started upon my drive to the city. The train would have landed me at home by the narrowest of mar gins, and I was dismayed at the de lay I already had experienced. “Your Man Say—" There was nothing I could do to speed the driver, a thoroughly able citizen in his line, who patiently was doing his best w'ith safety to get me to my destination at the appointed time. Hut neither he nor I reckoned with a triffic jam which put me In a state almost as fuming as his solely tried engine after its constant shift ing of gears, and landed me at the door of the apartment house at five o’clock, a whole hour after the time Dickey had named for the appoint ment with the tailor. I tipped the driver liberally to carry the suitcases upstairs for me, and then, waiting for nothing else, I hur iedly unpacked Dickey’s suitcase, tos sing the things on chairs and tables, until I discovered the evening clothes. Wrapping them in paper, I ran down the stairs and walked as swiftly as I could without attracting attention to the tailor shop Dicky had designated. The tailor ej'ed me with calm, re mote indifference when I had stated my errand. "Tour man say four o'clock,” he said with an ominous air of finality. "It now ten past five. 1 cannot press clothes now." L. O. E. Grant! Chapter Presents Framed Charter to l.oral Unit. At a meeting of the I.. O.

After bathing her Micky gives her his bed. Both fall asleep. Douglas Bruce, the man who aided Micky in obtaining Ills money from a bigger hoy, is introduced with l^eslie Minton, a woman who loves the swamps and great outdoors.

He laid (he pillow on (he foot of (he bod, saying politely: " 'Souse me, Lily, (ill 1 get me a bottle of milk.” Soon he returned and with his first glimpse of the bed stood aghast. It was empty. His eyes searched the room. His pallet on the floor outlined a tiny form. A dismayed half smile flashed over his face. He took a step toward her. and then turned, getting out a cloth he had not used since be ing alone. Mickey knew Poaches must have hurt herself sliding from (he bed, al though her arms were strong for the remainder of the body. She had no way to reach his pallet "hut to roll across the floor. She might have bruised herself badly. He was amazed, disgusted, ye; compassionate. He went to her and turned back the comfort. “You must he speaking a little loud or.

Mickey-lovest, please, please put me back on the nice fine bed. an* do please give me some of that bread Mickey lifted her. crooning incoher ent things. He wiped her face and hands, cofnbed her hair, and pushed the table against the bed. He broke toast in a glass and poured milk over it. Then he cooked tlm egg and gave h*r that, keeping only half the milk and one slice of bread. He made a sand wich of more bread, and the cheese, put a banana with it. set a cup of water i nreach, and told her that was her lunch: to eat it when the noon whistles hlewr.

Her weight bore him to the pavement, but he kept her from falling, and even as he felt her on her feet, he snatched under the wheels for her purse. "Is that all your atuff, lady?” he asked. "Thank you! T think so,” she said. “Wait a minute!" . To lend help waa an hourly oc currence with Mickey. She had been most particular to teach him that. He was gathering up and smoothing his papers, several of which were soiled. The woman opened the purs" he had rescued, taking therefrom a bill which she offerer! him. ' ■'Thanks!” said Mickey. "My shoul der is worth considerable to me; but nothing like that to you, lady!” “Well!” she said. “Are you refus ing the money?” ■'Sure!” said Mickey. ”1 ain’t a beggar! Just a balance on my shoul der and picking up your purse ain't worth an endowment. I'll take five cents each for three soiled papers, if you say so.” "You amazing boy!” said the woman. Don't you understand that if you hadn’t offered your shoulder, I might now he lying senseless? You saved ine a hard fall, while my dress •would have been ruined. You step over here a minute. What's your name?” “Mlrjaael O'Halloran," was the an swer. "Where do you live?" "Sunrise Alley. It’s miles on the cars, then some more walking,” ex plained Mickey. "Whom do you live with?” "Myself,” said Mickey. "Alone?” "All but Peaches,” said Mickey. "Lilly Peaches.” "Who is I.iiy Peaches?” "She's about so long"—Mickey showed bow long—"and about so wide”—ho showed how wide—"and white like fTaster church flowers. Her back's bad. I'm her governor; she's my child." "If you won't take the money for yourself, then take it for her," of fered the woman. "If you have a little sick girl to support, you surely can use it.” "Umm!” said Mickey "You kind of ball a fellow up and hang him on the ropes. Honest you do, lady! I can take care of myself. I know I can, 'cause I’ve done it three years, but I don't know how I'm going to make it with I.iiy, for she needs a lot. She may get sick any day, so I ain’t sure bow I'm going to man age well with her," "How long have you taken cars, of her?" "Since last night,” explain'd Mickey. "Oh! How old is she?" Questions seemed endless. "I don't know." answered Mickey. "Her granny died and left her lying on rage in a garret. I found her screeching, so I took her to my castle and washed her, and fed her. You ihould see her now.” "I believe I should!" said the wom an. "Let's go at once. Vou know, Michael, you can’t care for a girl. I'll put her in one of the beautiful Children s Homes—” "Now nix on the Children's Homes, fair lady!" he cried angrily. "I guess you’ll find her, 'fore you take her! I found her first, and she's 'mine! I guess you'll find her. 'tore you take her to a Children's Home, where the doctors slice up the poor kids so they’ll know how to g-d money for doing it to the rich ones. I’ve an nexed Lily Peaches, and you don't 'get' her! See?" "I see." said the woman. "But you're mistaken—” "Reuse crossing your wire, but 1 don't think I am," said Mickey. "The only way you can know, Is to have been there yourself. I don't think you got that kind of a start, or want it for kids of your own. My mother killed herself to keep me out <tf it, and if it had been so grand, she'd wanted me there. Nix on the Or phlngs' Home talk. Lily ain’t going t obe raised in droves, nor flocks, nor herds! See? Lily's going to have a home of her own. and a man to take care of her by herself." Mickey hacked away, swallowing a big lump in his throat, and blinking down angry tears. “ 'Smorning," he said. "I asked God to help me. and for a minute I was so glad, 'cause t thought He d helped by sending you. so you could tell me how to do: hut if God can’t beat you, I can get along by my self." “You can't take care of a girl by yourself." she ■ insisted. "The law won’t allow you.” "Oh, can't 1?" scoffed Mickey. "Well, you're msitaken. 'cause 1 am! And getting along buly! You ought to seen her last night, and then this morning. Next time I yei for help, I won’t ask to have anybody sent, I'll ask Him to help me save our souls myself. Ever see that big, white, wonderful Jesus at the Cathedral door, ma'anl, holding the little child In His arms so loving? I don't s'nose He stopped to ask whether it was a girl, or tp boy. 'fore He took it up: He just opened Hln arms to the first child that needed Him. And if I re ■ __-t ■ member right, He didn't, say: ‘Suffer litile children to be sent to Orphlngs' Homes.’ Mammy never trad it to me that way. It was suffer them to come to 'Me,' and he took tip, and held tender. See? Nix on the Or phings' Home people. They ain’t in my class. Beacheous lady, adoo'. Farewell! X depart!” Mickey wheeled, vanishing. It wxis a wonderful exhibition of curves, leaps, and dftrts. He paused for breath when he felt sAfs. "So that's the dope!” he marvelled. "I can’t take care of a girl? Going to take her away from me? I'd like to know why? Men all the time take care of women. I see boys taking care of girls I know their mothers left with them, every day—I’d like to know why. Mothert said I was to take care of her. She said that's what men were made for. ’Cause lie didn't take care of her. was why she was glad my father was dead. I guess I know what I'm doing! But I've learned something! Nix on t eas ytalk after this; and telling any body you meet all you know . Shut mouth from now on. 'What's your name, little boy?' 'Andrew Carnegie.' 'Where do you live?' ‘Castle on the Hudson!' A mouth just tight shut about Lily after this! And nix on the Swell Dames! Next one can bust her crust for all I care! I won't touchy her!” On the very instant, precisely thati thing occurred, at Mickey’s very feet With his lips not yet closed, he knelt to shove his papers under a woman's head, then went racing up the stone steps she had rolled down, his qtrick eye catching and avoiding the bit of fruit on which she had slipped He returned in a second with help As the porter lifted the inert body. Mickey slid his hands under her head, and advised: "Keep her straight!'' Into one of the big hospitals he helped carry ft blue and white cla.l nurse, on and on. up elevators aqd inot awhite porcelain room where they laid her on a glass table Mickey watched with frightened eyes Doc tors and nurses came running He stood waiting for his papers He was rather sick, yet he remembered he had five thei^ he must sell. "Better clear out of her now!” sug gested a surgeon. "My papers!” said Mickey. ' She fell right cross my feet. I slid them under, to make her head more pillov like on the stones. Maybe I can sell some of them.” The surgeon motioned to a nursa^ at the door. "Take this youngster to the office and pay hirn for the papers he has spoiled.” he ordered.1 "Will she—Is she g"ins to— wavered Mickey, "I'm not sure." “aid llie surgeon. I '*From| the bleeding probably con* cuss ion; but she will live Do you know how she came to fall'.’ “There was a .'-mear of something on the steps she didn't see. ex plained Mickey. "Thank you!
