E Boucher will leave Au gust 7, to spend a month in Yellow stone. Dear Martha Allen:, Some time ago I made the acquaintance of a young man about my own age with whom I was favorably Impressed. He tn every way measures up to my Ideal, sharing my love for nature, music, art and science. His education is of the finest. He has a hachelor of arts degree and Is working now, for sev eral more degrees. But in the face of all this there Is a barrier which I have endeavored to fight for several years. He is Chinese. Does this appear too greal a barrier to overrule? I am very liberal in my .views and Ideas, but I can readily see' the oppo sition which I would meet from my family and friends were I to con sider marrying this young man. Can you advise me? UNCERTAIN. Don't marry a man whose train ing, national customs and heredity are so different from your own. The Chinese are a wonderful people, but behind them lie centuries of culture far different from ours. Woman’s position In the Chinese World is so different from that to w'hieh you are accustomed that this one thing alone would be enough to give you a diffi cult problem and to cause you much unhappiness. When a man and woman of dif ferent nations marry they have a bit of adjusting to do always. But when different races Intermarry the gap is too wide to bridge. And marriages be tween men and women of different races do not work out to the advan tage of the race, the nation or the individuals. Most earnestly, I beg of you, to stop and reason this thing out sanely. The kindest, wisest, hap piest course Is to end the romance here and now. one year. Mrs. James R'. Strang of Brooklyn, N. Y.. who was formerly Miss Margaret McCoy, arrived today to be the guest of her parents and to visit with her sister. Miss Helen Mc Coy. _ The Way Harry Underwood Met the Dancer and Vanished—for a Time. The masked dancers continued their progress around the room, separating as they came, so that the occupants of each table had the op portunity to get a close view of them. Indeed, at some of the tables the dancers paused with pantomime in vitations to dance. These were al ways promptly accepted by the men to whdtn. they were proffered, but I noticed that each man's time on the floor was extremely limited. "Queer how that old stuff Is sn ever bloomer,” Mr. Underwood ron^ mented in a patent effort to make conversation. "Those birds pay a stiff price to the management for the chance .to whirl around the floor once or twice with a doll who may be the homliest woman In New York for all he knows.” “I suppose it's the touch of mys tery," I said, hardly conscious of my words. All my faculties were fused In the effort to remember where I had seen the dancer whose feline and graceful movements I was sure belonged to someone known to me. By the natur al evolution of their group move ments she should have been dancing In another part of the room, but I had seen her after a quick whispered colloquy change places with another girl, and I saw that her course among the tahles eventually would bring her to ours. Madge In Danger. Of course I could not be certain that she had any especial reason for coming to our table, but a glance at Mr. Underwood showed me that he was watching the girl's movements intently. Indeed, there was something in his attitude which vaguely remind ed me of a powerful wild animal crouching to spring upon anything menacing his safety, or that of any one dependent upon him. That he expected an attack from some quarter I knew from th#odd In structions he had just muttered to me. Instructions to leave tne place Immediately if he should give the sig nal. But I reasoned that something hidden from me and connected with his ostensible leadership of the boot legging gang, must be at the root of his tense watchfulness. Nearer and nearer came the dancer I was watching. Each whirl with one of the partners allotted her brought her in closer proximity to our table. Of course one could catch no glimpse of her eyes or the expression on her face, but I had the same sensation of a gaze fixed upon me that had so star tled me In the beginning of my dance with Mr. Underwood. Suddenly the conviction came to me--absurd though it seemed—that it was I, not Mr. Underwood, who was In danger, if there was any. “There’s Another Day!” I shrank hack in my seat, glad that the exit my escort had pointed out was so near that one movement from my chair would take me into it. It was the crassest absurdity, my com nion sense told me, to believe that the graceful woman apparently ab sorbed in her dance held any menace for me. yet my fascinated eyes never left her. and I felt my throat con strict with every advancing move ment. She had come almost to our table when Mr. Underwood rose from his seat, and without waiting for the pantomimed invitation to dance which she had fciven the occupants of other tables, put out his hands and grasp ing hers, swung her into dancing position. For a perceptibls second she hesi tated and I Raw her strain tensely away from his grasp. He whispered something into her oar. and with « shrug of her shoul ders, Gallic and charming, shs re laxed and followed his lead in the measure. Through the crowded room they danced as if the floor beneath their feet were the starry heavens, attracting the Jaded attention of many of the patrons who would not have turned their eyes a fraction of an inch to the right or the left for any ordinary spectacle. Many of the glances were for me. left alone at the table. They were curious, amused, even pitying glances Dr. and Mrs. Fred B. Brown have returned from a motor trip to Clare mont, Mass.

But I had sense enough lett to realize that there was some vital rea son behind his action, and I made a brave attempt to pretend absorp tion in my dinner, casting only an occasional furtive glance at my escort, who, I saw with relief and amaze ment, was making his way steadily toward the exit opposite ours. They disappeared through it, and it was five minutes, which seemed an eternity, before Mr. Underwood appeared at the door Just beside our table. "There! Praise be to Allah that damsel's settled for tonight!” he said, and then from Just outside the en trance there came a silvery mocking laugh which I knew', and flung back from the lips of a figure rushing down the corridor came back the words: "But there's another day, remem ber!” It was the voice of Grace Draper!
