The “supers” of the moving pictures to the number of ten thousand have appealed to the American Federation of Labor to help them. The days when in the “legitimate” they could get several dollars a night for looking the part have given place to long hours of exposure to humps and thumps and thrilling mauling and falling, for a wage scale seriously reduced, they maintain, by the exorbitant commis sions demanded by the agents. The! public is no longer satisfied to let a dummy fall from a cliff or jump from a motor car to a train, or stab a man eating shark, or purloin the cubs of a she-bear in her den. It expects the “super” himself to be an “injiarub ber id jit,” blithe and resilient, wheth er he is dropped from a house roof or smothered under a haymow. He must be a glutton for punishment, and unite to the indurated symmetry of a mar ble faun the lungs of a Ted Meredith and the muscles of a Howard Berry. Yet for all this he is to have the pay of a stevedore or a station porter. He thinks lie deserves the wages of a Mex ican bullfighter, at least. He suffers rfrom competition. He is a “supernu merary.” He gets the wages paid in cullings that put little or no premium on mentality. Bruises, sprains and gashes, in a world dripping with gore, have a lessened market value since they have become part of the accept ed order. The trivial wounds of civil ians are little noted for the real and widespread suffering among the sol diers. The “super” would win at once as a warrior the sympathy that is de nied in his cinematographic trials and Kiifforlnp'S. Londoners and Zeppelins. The contrary way in which the Lon doner takes his Zeppelin raids has often been a matter of comment. He not only entirely refuses to be fright ened, but. official instructions forgot ten and disregarded, he crowds into the streets at the smallest hint of a raid, scans the sky eagerly, and claims, as a matter of course, and is accorded in the same spirit, the help of the local police force to the best possible view. Then, when it is all over, he must needs go and see all that happened. And the railway companies and the bus companies and the tramway companies carry him in thousands, and the po lice direct him, and instruct him, and tell him of the last trains home. And the street venders, even before the news is in the papers, are selling him souvenirs. Clean Record. “What makes Jinks so proud of his ancestors?

THE BEST MAN By Grace Livingston Hill Lutz Author of “Marcia Schuyler,” "Dawn of the Morning,” “Lo, Michael!" etc. Philadelphia & London. J. B. Lippincott Company. 1914. CHAPTER I.—(Continued). Gordon could not afford to waste any more time. He must get rid of him at once! The express office would not take a dog without a collar and chain unless he was crated; and the delays and ex asperating hindrances-seemed to be in here tomorrow afternoon, has canceled terminable. But at last, following the advice of a kindly officer, he took the dog to an institution in New York where, he was told, dogs were boarded and cared for, und where he finally disposed of him, having first paid J10 for the privilege. As he settled back in a taxicab with his watch in his hand he congratulated himself that he had still ample time to reach his hotel and get into evening dress before he must present himself for his work. Within three blocks of the hotel the cab came to such a sudden standstill that Gordon was thrown to his knees. CHAPTER II. They were surrounded immediately by a crowd in which policemen were a prominent feature. The chauffeur semed dazed in the hands of the offi cers. A little, barefoot, white faced figure huddled limply in the midst showed Gordon what had happened: also there were menacing glances towards him self and a show of lifted stones, lie heard one boy say: "You bet he's in a hurry to "it away. Them kind alius is. They don't care who they kills, they don't." A great horror seized him. The cab had run over a newsboy and perhaps killed him. Yet instantly came the re membrance of his commission: “Don’t let anything hinder you. Make it a matter of life and death!” Well, it looked as if this was a matter of death that hindered him now. They bundled the moaning boy into the taxicab and as Gordon saw no es cape through the tightly packed crowd, who eyed him suspiciously, he climbed In beside the grimy little scrap of un conscious humanity, and they were off to the hospital to the tune of "Don't let anything hinder you! Don’t let anything hinder you!” until Gor don felt that if it did not stop soon he would go crazy. He meditated opening the cab door and making his escape in spite of the speed they were making, but a vision of broken legs and a bed in the hospital for himself held him to his seat. One of the policemen had climbed on in front with the chauffeur, and now and again he glanced back as if he were conveying a couple of prisoners to jail. It was vexatious beyond anything! And all on account of that white dog! Could anything be more ridiculous than the whole performance? His annoyance and irritation almost made him forget that it was his prog ress through the streets that had si lenced this mite beside him. But, just as he looked at his watch for the fifth time, the boy opened his eyes and moaned, and there was in those eyes a striking resemblance to the look in the eyes of the dog of whose presence he had just rid himself. Gordon started. In spite of himself it seemed as if the dog were reproach ing him through the eyes of the child. Then suddenly the boy spoke. "Will yous stay by me till I’m mend ed?" whispered the weak little voice. Gordon's heart leaped in horror again and it came to him that lie was being tried out this day to see if he had the right stuff for hard tasks. The appeal in the little street boy’s eyes reached him as no request had ever done, and yet lie might not answer it. Duty—life and death duty—called him elsewhere, and he must leave the little fellow whom lie had been the involuntary cause of injuring, to suffer and perhaps to die. It cut him to the quick not tc respond to that .urgent appeal. Was it because he was weary that he was visited just then by a vision ol Julia Bentley with her handsome lips curled scornfully? Julia Bentley would not have approved of his stopping tc carry a boy to the hospital, any more than to care for a dog’s comfort. “Book here, kiddie,” he said gently leaning over the child, "I’d stay by you if I could, but I’ve already made my self late lor an appointment by com ing so far with you. Do you know what duty is?” The child nodded sorrowfully. "Don’t yous mind me,” lie murmured weakly. "Just yous go. I’m game al right.” Then the voiced trailed off int< i silence a-.a in, and the eyelids fluttered ; down upon the little, grimy, uncon i scions face. i Gordon went into the hospital for a ; brief moment to leave some money in the hands of tlie authorities for the i benefit of the boy, and a message thal he would return in a week or two, ii possible; then hurried away. Back in :lie cab once more, he feb as if he had killed a man and let him lying by the roadside while lie con ic ..I li i m iinon-. .1*1- i ii Cf n-,,,1-^1, 1,.i, i! hideous duty which was growlu: j momently more portentous, and to bt | relieved of which he would gladly have : uurroii lered further lmpe of his cliieft : favor.

Yes, I'll be there in a. few moments, as soon as I can get rid of the dust of travel. Thank you. Goodbye." It all sounded very commonplace to the clerk, who was making out bills and fretting because he could not get off to take his girl to the theater that night, but as Gordon hung up the receiver he looked around furtively as if expecting to see a dozen detectives ready to seize upon him. It was the first time he had ever undertaken a commission under an assumed name and he felt as if he were shouting liis commission through the streets of New Y'ork. The young man made short work of his toilet. Just as he was leaving the hotel a telegram tvas handed him. It was from his chief, and so worded that to the operator who had copied it down it read like a hasty call to Boston; but, to his code enlightened eyes it was merely a blind to cover his exit from the hotel and from New Y'ork, and set any possible hunters on a wrong scent. He marvelled at the wonderful mind of his chief, who thought out every detail of an important campaign, and forgot not one little possible point where difficulty might arise. Gordon had a nervous feeling as he again stepped into a taxicab and gave his order. He wondered how many stray dogs, and newsboys with broken legs, would attach themselves to him on the way to dinner. Whenever the speed slowed down, or they were halted by cars and autos, his heart pounded painfully, lest something new had hap pened, but he arrived safely and swiftly at the station, checked his suit case, and took another cab to the residence of Mr. Holman, without further inci dent. The company were waiting for him, and after th'e introductions they went immediately to the dining room. Gor don took his seat with the feeling that he had bungled everything hopelessly, and had arrived so late that there was no possible hope of his doing what he had been sent to do. For the first few minutes his thoughts were a jumble, lights of the room. He could not single out the faces of the people present and differentiate them one from another. His heart beat painfully against the stiff expanse of evening linen. It almost seemed as if those near him could hear It. He found himself starting and stammering when he was addressed as "Mr. Burnham.” His thoughts -*were mingled with white dogs, newsboys, and ladies with scornful smiles. He was seated on the right of his hostess, and gradually her gentle man ners gave him quietness. He began to gain control of himself, and now he seemed to see afar the keen eye of his chief watching the testing of his new commissioner. His heart swelled to meet the demand made upon him. A strong purpose came to him to rise above all obstacles and conquer in spite of circumstances. He must forget everything else and rise to the oc casion. From that moment the dancing lights that multiplied themselves in the glit tering silver and cut glass of the table began to settle into order; and slowly, one by one, the conglomeration of faces around the board resolved itself into individuals. There was the pretty, pale hostess, whose gentle ways seemed hardly to fit with her large, boisterous, enough polished husband. Wnscrupulousiu»s was written all over his ruddy features, also a certain unhidden craftiness which passed for geniality among his kind. There were two others with faces full of cunning, both men of wealth and culture. One did not think of the word “refinement” in connection with them; still, that might be conceded also; but it was all dominated by the cunning that on tills occasion, at least, was ul* lowed to sit unmasked upon their coun tenances. They had outwitted an enemy, and they were openly exultant. Of the other guests, one was very young and sleek, with eyes that had early learned to evade; one was old and weary looking, witli a hunted expres ! sion; one was thick set, with little eyes j set close in a fat, selfish face. Gordon began to understand that these three but did the bidding of the others. They listened to the conversation mer .y from a business standpoint and no: with any personal Interest. They were I there because they were needed, and | not because they were desired. There was one bond which they seemed to hold in common: an alert readiness to combine for their mutual ' safety. This did not manifest itseif in ! anything tangible, but tins guest felt | that it was there and ready to spring upon him at any instant. All tiiia camo gradually to the young man as the rrr al with its pleasant r : - nullities began. As yet nothin:; 1 id Ut'till MIUU ilUUUL IXiU X viUiUU XU1 XXr3 IV i ing there. "Did you tell me you were in a 1 wreck?" suddenly asked the hostess i sweetly, turning to him, and tli ■ table | talk hushed instantly while the host a: ktd: “A wreck; b us jt serioa.s'.'” Gordon perceived his ink-take at once. ; With instant caution, ho replied smil - ingiy, “Oli, nothing serious, a litlD ■hi-; as down on a freight ahead, which ■ required time to patch up. it rein ,u d i me—” and then ho launched boldly into one o£ the bright dinner sioriv ; l'ur ■ winch lie vjc.s lioied among ins coin ] panioiis at. home.

Koi ; the time the incidents of ike dog and the newsboy were forgotten, ana the young man felt hla self respect rising. His heart was beginning to get into normal uction again and he could con trol his thoughts. Then suddenly, the crisis arrived. The soup and fish courses had been disposed of, and the table was being prepared for the entree. The host leaned back genially in his chair and said, "By the way, Mr. Burnham, did you know 1 had an ax to grind In ask ing you here this evening? That sounds inhospitaole, doesn't it? But I'm sure we're all grateful to the ox that has given us the opportunity of meeting you. We are delighted at having dis covered you.” Gordon bowed, smiling at the com pliment, and the murmurs of hearty assent around the table showed him that he had begun well. If only he could keep it up! But how, how, was he to get possession of that magic bit of paper and take it away with him? "Mr. Burnham, I was delighted to learn through a friend that you are an expert in code reading. I wonder, did the message that my friend Mr. Burns sent you this morning give you any in timation that I wanted you to do me a favor?” Gordon bowed again. "Yes: it was intimated to me that you had some message you would like deciphered, and I have also a letter of introduction from Mr. Burns.” Here Gordon took the letter of In troduction from his pocket and handed it across the table to his host, who opened it genially, as if it were hardly necessary to read what was written within since they already knew so de lightfully the man whom it introduced. The duplicate cipher writing in Gor don's pocket crackled knowingly when he settled his coat about him again, as if it would say, "My time is coming! It is almost here now." The young man wondered how he wflH tn cpt It nut wlthnut hAlnc in case he should want to use it, but he smiled pleasantly at his host with no sign of the perturbation he was feel ing. "You see," went on Mr. Holman, "we have an important message which we cannot read, and our expert who un derstands all these matters is out of town and cannot roturn for some time. It is necessary that we know as soon ! as possible th» import of this writing.” While he was speaking Mr. Holman drew from his pocket a long, soft leath er wallet and took therefrom a folded paper which Gordon at once recognized as the duplicate of the one he carried in his pocket. His head seemed to reel, and all the lights go dark before him as he reached a cold hand out for the paper. He saw in it his own advance ment coming to his eager grasp, yet when he got it would lie be able to hold it? Something of the coolness of a man facing a terrible danger came to him now. By sheer force of will he held his trembling fingers steady as he took the bit of paper and opened it carelessly, as if he had never heard of it before, say/ng as he did so: “I will do my best." There was a sudden silence as every eye was fixed upon him while he un folded the paper. He gave one swift glance about the table before he dropped his eyes to the task. Every face held JJle intensity of almost ter rible eagerness, and on- every one but that of the gentle hostess sat cunning —craft-.that would stop at nothing to serve it# own ends. It was a moment of almost awful import. The next Instant Gordon’s glance went down to the paper in his hand, and his brain and heart were seized in the grip of fright. There was no other word to describe his feeling. The mes sage before him was clearly written in the code of the home office, and the words stared at him plainly without the necessity of study. The import of tfiem was the revelation of one of the most momentous questions that had to do with the secret service work, a question the answer to which had puzzled the entire department for weeks That answer he now held in his hand, and he knew that if it should come to the knowledge of those out side before it had done its work through the department it would result In dire calamity to the cause of right eousness in the country, and inciden tally crush the Inefficient messenger who allowed it to become known. For the instant Gordon felt unequal to the task before him. How could he keep these bloodhounds at bay—for such they were, he perceived from the im ! port of the message, bloodhounds who i were getting ill gotten gains from in 1 nocent and unsupeetlng victims—some j of them little children. But the old chief had picked his man well. Only for an instant the glittering lights darkened before his eyes and the cold perspiration started. Then he ! rallied his forces and looked up. The welfare of a nations honor was in his hands, and lie would be true. It was a matter of life and death, and he would save it or lose his own life if need be. i He summoned his ready smile. "I shall be glad to serve you if I can,” lie said. "Of course I’d like to look this over a few minutes before attempting to read it. Codes are dif ferent, you know, from one another, but thpre is a key to them all if one '•an .iust find it out. This looks as if j it might be very simple.” (Continued next week.) “Tomorrow You Will Eo King!” ! Stacey Aumonler, In the Century. "Tomorrow you will ho king.
