SANFORD. I (Copyright.) "Yes," said Brent, answering the deferentially questioning look In the eye's of the clerk, "I like these rooms very much. Did you say they nro Uio unly vacant upartment In the house?" "Yes," returned the polite clerk promptly; "and we shouldn't have these to offer only that the young lady who had them was 111, and obliged to go home. "I will tnkc the rooms," he said. "But tell me: do all theso pictures and this desk go with them, or do tllcy belong to the young lady?" "Well, It's this way," said the clerk ; "they are to stay hero If you wish Hierii, not unless. You see, the young lady, Miss Castleton, Is an artist you havo heard of her and these pictures are mostly her own work. She1 used this room as a studio. And the desk Is hern, too. Stanley Brent was a young man of enough wealth to enable him to Id dulge his fancies; but ho had concen trated nil his energies and ambitions upon n novel, which had finally been accepted by a No.w York publishing firm on condition that he would make certain changes in tho plot. He found his new apartment nil that could bo desired In tho wny of stimu lus. He whlmslcnlly attributed his suc cess to the Chippendale desk, at which he did most or his work. , Hanging directly over the Chippen dale desk, there was on picture which roused Brent's admiration and Imag ination more tlinn all the rest, It was a study of n young man, with features faultlessly Greek, who looked tho cpltoino of youth and poetry and love. It Het Brent to weaving a romance at n faster pace than his own pen could follow. "Yes, Hint's the man she loves, or did lovo when sho painted It," he said to hlmsolf as he lighted his brier, and gave himself up to the Joys of specu lation. And Brent put down his brier, and started 6n a prolonged search for a note from Miss Kingston, who hnd In vited him to (line with her and her chum. "Here It Is," he said at last, spy ing a bluu'-gray sheet of note-paper In the far rornor of a pigeonhole. He pulled It out and began to read. A puzzled expression came over his fate. He could not remember buy ing received this nt range letter: "It Is such a Joy to love you that I feel as If I must tell you so. 1 fancy most women don't tell a man that they love him. They allow him to do nil that. Well, my heart, I am different, that 1h all. I sit here looking at your wonderful face tonight, and It seems to me that yon were born for love, Just as a Greek statue was born for Immortality, I cannot help adding my tribute of adoration, even while I feel thnt It will not touch you very deeply. Why should It? xou must have wearied befoh this of the countless oblations offered on your altar. Nevertheless, because I love with a love which Is as fresh mihI pure iih It Is lasting, I dare to tell you so, and sign myself "Yours devotedly, "ALICE CASTLKTON." This, then, was the way some wom en loved, Brent rettected, as be carefully replaced the tell-tale letter. He wished be hod ever known Uiat sort of girl, He ninth' up his mind then and Ihere to meet Alice Cas tleton, no matter what the pretext, as soon ns be finished his novel. I In illil not Imvo tn vntt lnm linw. - " """ I ever. As he entered tho house late In I the afternoon of the next day, lie was met by tho clerk with n smile ami the Information that Miss Cnstlenuin was In his rooms. Entering, ho snw a plump, merry faced girl In the act of Jumping from a high chair with the fatal picture In her hands. ' "How do you do?" she laughed. "I suppose you are Mr. Brent. Well, I am Alice Castleton. 1 hope you won't mind my taking Narcissus. "The loquacious gentleman nt the desk tells me you aro n literary man," she continued, still In a serio-comic way. "Why don't you put us Into a story, Narcissus and myself? I've wen written him love letters In odd moments when I'd nothing bettor to do I" Finally ho summoned up sufficient courage to toll her about the note ho had dlscnverqd, and his romantic de duction. Miss Castleton could not re strain her mirth. "And now," she sold, "which do you prefer, Mr. Brent tho blighted violet of your fancy or the prosaic reality?" Brent was silent for n moment. "Might one be permitted to be g':id that a Narcissus seems to be his only rival?" be said finally. "But you forget," laughed Miss t'nt. tleton, "that Narcissus spells nrt, inul that art Is long." "May I not u you again?" be pleaded. "Certainly," returned Miss Castle ton. "I wns Just about to ask you to come to tea next Sunday nt my now studio. Here Is.niy card. I am send ing for the desk tomorrow. Good-by, Mr. Brent.

Lamont, Chairman, Tells of Relief Administered and Task to Bo Completed. Tho American Committee for China rmmlne Fund, according to a state ment Issued by Thomns W. Lamont, chnlrmnn, has reached the second stage of Its mission of mercy of nervl ing funds from America tp feed the millions of starving fomtnn victims In tho far eastern republic. At the low est eHttiiitttfl, tho statement says, just as much more Is needed to carry "the Inst 0,000,000" through to the Jun harvest as has already been sent. Mr, Lamont points out thnt quick response by America to appeals made by President Harding and his prede cessor, President Wilson, has resulted In such prompt distribution of relief that the threatened magnitude of the famine has been checked to a marked extent. A continuation of the efforts so far made, It Is doclared, will place the famine relief for China among America's roost effective philanthro pies. The Waiting Millions There remain, however, tho state ment shows, a "Inst B.000,000" to be saved, nnd these people can bo saved only by continuous nnd voluminous re lief resulting from American subscrip tions. The statement, In part, follows : "Quick response to the appeal of the American Committee for China Fam ine Fund gives us at tho half-way point In our work the cheering assur ance that tho subscriptions from gen erous America already have served a great humanitarian purpose, Inasmuch as relief already administered has held tho famtno In bounds and mado It pos sible for America to save a multitude of human beings. "Whereas early estimates mado It seem that millions must perish, we now are advised that Instead of the 15,000,000 who, It was originally fear ed, wero doomed to death from hunger, relief nt present In sight from nil sources, American, Chinese and for eign, Is sufficient to provide sennty ra tions until the June harvest for all ex cept ."i.OOO.OOO people. These 'lust 5.000,000' nro destitute, according to our latest reports from tho American Advisory Commlttoo In Peking and ure dependent for existence upon new help coming from outside sources, nnd this means America. From All the People "It Is tho earnest hope of the Com mittee that the number of contribu tions mude ns well as the aggregate will bo such ns to make ottr humrinltn rl.'in gift, In a real sense, a gift of the American people us a whole. "One way to mnke Individual effort nnd generosity contribute toward sav ing China's starving population Is for every one responsive to China's need. In effect, to 'pick a pal In China for a dny.' The thought behind this special nppenl In connec tion with the Intter part of our effort will be for American men, women nnd children to choose, figuratively, a Chi nese famine victim ns n friend for.n day und to send what they spend one day on themselves or an American friend to the China Famine Fund ei ther through local committees, banks or churches or direct to Vernon Mun roo, treasurer, Bible House, New York City. "No Amerlcun Is so poor that he cannot save a life at the lowest rate ever quoted, one dollar a month. Life's quotations tltictuute, sometimes In one nation, sometimes in another, hut the lower the quotation the greater the opportunity of humanity, the opportu nity of human beings to save humnn life. China Is far away 0.000 miles but hunger Is hunger, whe'her around tho cornor.or beyond the Pacific. "Wo appeal to America to mnke ef fective the work alreudy done In checking the China famine disaster by Raving until harvest those already saved from death." "CHINA WEEK" IS SUPREME EFFORT OF FUND WORKERS As n practical and popular demon stration of tho sympathy of the nntlon for a sister republic, a "China Famine Week," to bo observed throughout the Untied States, has been set for the eight days from Sunday, May 1, to Suuduy, Mtoy 8, inclusive In this week It Is hoped that the churches apd civic, commercial nnd professional bodies will take an nctlvo part. Tho success of this week will determine largely tho amount of re llof which can be sent through per sonal sacrifice to 5,000,000 starving peoplo still dependent on outside aid. RRS.

The sky wrt threatening, with Its uiuiuuuN masses oi purpiisn uiiuk ' thunder clouds streaked every now , nnd then with flashes of chain light ning. Though the storm wns still at some .distance from Uio quiet lake, everyone wnRscurrylng In to the land ing, for It gnve promise of being a severe one. Tho group of girls at tho boathouso wero casting frequent glances njtho approaching darkness In Uie heavenst Only orte of them stood silently apart. She seemed to be gazing va cantly out over the expanse of wa ter. "Why. Altai" cried Muriel Brown, a tiny blonde. "Surely you nrc not frightened by the storm 1" Alta slowly shook her head. Tho glrla whispered covertly to one an oUier, for they know that It was not tho fright of the storm that troubled Alta. "Flo I Alta Winston I" said Muriel In mock Indignation. She seemed to be leader of tho group. "Thinking of Mr. Hilton? You are a fine bachelor girl. I suppose It Is qulto natural to be so anxious for ono's future brother-in-law, Isn't It, girls?" Thsy Joined In her merry penl of luughter, Strangely Altn did not par ticipate In their fun. The storm was quite near now, and one by ono the' sped timorously from the boathouso to their camp. Only Muriel remained with Alta. She was troubled by the girl's seeming moodiness. "I nm sorry," she began, half apolo getically, putting her nnn nround A1-' ta's waist, "but I didn't mean to be rude, I never knew you to be so smlt- ten with uny fellow like this, nnd we do hate to lose you." "Please don't Jest, Muriel." Alta Interposed. "Why won't you girls take me seriously. You have often heard me speak of Harry. You know he Is engaged to Helen. He has often tensed me about our 'bachelor camp,' nnd I Invited him up while Helen was away on his vacation. Now he Is out alone on. thnt lake" her voice broke as a warning rumble announced the begin ning of the storm. "Ho doesn't know about the drop nt the mill up nt the other end. After nil. he Is like a broth er and" "You silly girl," Interrupted Muriel, though her heart sank Inwardly. "He will be In any moment. Oh I" she started nt n fearful crash of thunder. "Come hack from that door, Alta. It Is dangerous to stand. near ltl" "I have watched the lake since, ho went out. I made him promise not to go far. for some vague, foreboding troubled me." she spoke ns If to her self. "It Is all my fault. It would kill Helen If anything should bnppen. There Is only one thing for me to do," and she started for the landing. Mu riel had only dimly grasped the mean ing of her words. "Altn Winston!" she cried, seizing her by the hands. "You won't go out on that hike In this storm. It Is mad ness It's worse It's death I" Muriel's efforts to stop her were futile. With a quiet smile sho thrust the little blonde from her nnd in trice was down on the landing nnd Into her motor boat. Muriel gasped In dis may nnd her face went as white as her sailor dress. She stepped to tho head of .the landing. As sho did, n vivid flash of lightning lighted the wholo of the darkening lnke. It did not take long for Muriel to spread Uie news, oven though the storm wns at Its height; but luckily both storm nnd peril proved to be not ns great as had been threatened. In less than three-quarters of an hour the boathouso was thronged with people. Though the wnters of the lake were still tossing -wildly, many were starting out nfter tho bravo girl when a cry went up thnt her motor boat had been heard. In the meantime Muriel wns sur rounded by n bevy of anxious ques tioners. "Just to think," she kept saying. "Her bravery was In vain, for narry Hilton hud already put In at one of the other campR, where they mistook him for ono of tholr new members who Is missing. He Is right here now, while poor Altn Is probnbly drowned." A loud cheer proved that she was mistaken about Alta's danger, for that young Indy had already reached the landing. It was hard to distinguish her In tho darkness, but as the lan tern shono upon hor Its light disclosed a rather bedraggled but Joyful Altn. "I've got him J" she smiled weakly. "He was Just drifting to the drop when he capsized. It was hard work, but " She stopped abruptly. There before her with tho lantern stood Harry Hil ton. Amazed, she watched him shift his light upon the unconscious form they were lifting from the boat. Then alio turned quickly to hide her embar rassment, for his face was n strange one. He was the missing camper. About 10 o'clock that night Muriel Interrupted tho rubbor hand of whist nt tho "Bnchelor Cnmp." "Girls," she snld, slnmmlng the door by wny of announcing tho Importnnce of her nppenrance. ."The doctor said that Alta's camper needed a nurse, so she remained to fill the position. I gUMfl we have lost her this time all right. Dp you know, .1 am going to make un addition to the rules of tho capip.
