I should hard :> have noticed her had it not been ;or the fact that she had been horribly d.sfigured by smallpox. 1 ui.' Gertrude said, when we had passed, what a face! 1 shall dream ol it to-night Get up. Flinders." “Flinders?” I asked. “Is that the horse's name?' "It is. She flicked the horse's stubby mane with the whip. "He didn't look like a livery horse, and the liveryman said he had bought him from the Armstrongs when they purchased a couple of motors and cut down the stable. Nice Flinders—good old boy*” Hinders was certainly not a com mon name for a horse, and yet the youngster at Richfield had named his prancing, curly-haired little horse Hinders’ It set me to thinking. At my request Halsey had already sen* word of the fire to the agent from w hom me had secured the house Also, he had called Mr. Jamieson by telephone, and somewhat guardedly f.^d told him of the previous nights -vents Mr Jamieson promised to come cm that night, and to bring an other man with him I did not con sider it necessary to notify Mrs Arm strong. in the village No doubt she knew of the fire, and in view of my refusal to give Up the house an inter view would probably have been un peasant enough. Rut as we passed l»r Walker's white and green house I thought of something. "Stop here, Gertrude," I said. “1 4.01 going to get out." "To see Louise?" she asked. No. ! want to ask this young Walker something ~ She was curious. 1 knew but I did not wait to explain I went up the' walk to the house, where a brass sign at the side announced the office, and went in The reception room was empty, but from the consultation room beyond came the sound of two voices, not very amicable. "It is an outrageous figure." some one was storming Then the doctor's quiet tone, evidently not arguing, merely stating something But 1 had not time to listen to some person probably disputing bis hill, so I coughed The voices ceased at once: i a door closed somewhere, and the doc tor eniered from the hall of the house He looked suffiiiently surprised at see ing me "Good afternoon. . octor." 1 said formally. "! shall not keep you from your patient 1 w ish merely to ask a “Won't you su down?" "It will not be necessary. Doctor, has any one come to you. either early ibis morning or to-day. to have you treat a bullet wound?” Nothing so startling has happened to me." he said. "A bullet wound! Things must be lively at Sunnyside." "I didn't say it was at Sunnyside. But as it happens, it w as. If any si h rase conies to you. w ill it be too much trouble for you to let me know?" “I shall be only too happy,” he said. "I understand you have had a fire up there, too A fire and shooting in one night is rather lively for a quiet place like that." "It is as quiet as a boiler-shop.” I replied, as 1 turned to go. "And you are still going to stay*" "Until I am burned out." I respond ed. And then, on my way down the steps. I turned around suddenly. "Doctor." 1 asked at a venture, "have you rver heard of a child named Lucien Wallace" Clever as he was. his fare changed and stiffened. He was on his guard again in a moment. "Lucien Wallace?" he repeated. "No. I think not. There are plenty of Wallaces around, but I don't know any Lucien." I was as certain as possible that he did. People do not lie .eadily to me, and this man lied beyond a doubt. But there was nothing to be gained now: his defenses were up. and I left, half irritated and wholly baffled Our reception was entirely different at Dr. Stewart's Taken into the bosom of the family at once. Flinders tied outside and n'bbling the grass at the roadside. Gertrude and 1 drank some home-made elderberry wine and told briefiy of the fire. Of the more serious part of the night's experience, of course, we said nothing But when at last we had left the family on the porch and the good doctor was unty ing our steed. 1 asked him the same question I had put to Dr. Walker. "Shot!" he said. “Bless my soul, no. Why. what have you b“en doing up at the big house. Miss InuesT’ “Some one tried to enter the house during the fire, and was shot and slightly injured."' I said hastily “Please don't mention it: we wish to make as little of it as possible." There was one other possibility, and we tried that. At Casanova station I saw the station master, and asked him if any trains left Casanova between one o'clock and daylight. There was none until 6 a. m The next question required more diplomacy "Did you notice on the six o'clock train any person—any man—who limped & little?" 1 asked. "Please try to remember: we are trying to trace a man who was seen loitering around Sunnyside last night before the fire." He was all attention in a motaent "I was up There myself at the fire.” he said volubly. "I'm a member of the volunteer company. Firs* big Ere we'Te had since the summer house burned over to the club golf links My wife was savin' the other day. Dave, you might as well 'a' saved the money in that there helmet and shirt.' I And here last night they came in handy. Kang that bell so hard 1 hadn't time scarcely to get 'em on ” “And—did you see a man who limped?” Gertrude put in. as he stopped for breath. "Not at the train, ms'm." he said "No such person got on here to-day But I'll tel! you where I did see a man that limped. 1 didn't wait till the company left; there's a fast freight goes through at 4:45. and I had to get down to the station 1 seen there wasn't much more to do anyhow at the fire—we'd got the times under con troi”—Gertrude looked at me and smiled—"so 1 started down the hill. There was folk here and there goin' home, and along by the path to the Country club 1 seen two men One was a short fellow He was sitting on a big rock, his back to tue. and he had something w hite in his hand, as ii be was tying up his foot. After I'd gone on a piece I looked back, and he ! was hobbling on and—excuse me. miss —be was swearing something sicken ing ” <to tin cuxTTxrrn > Durability ef Concrete.

A Bad Memory. Harvey U oMhington Locusts once j went abroad t" study music. He was a young man. and tbc. after two weeks voyage, he iandec in France, he was very homesick He stood it for two days and then hooked his passage tin the same ship and re turned to America. When he rang the bell at his home in Brooklyn, his sister opened the door. “Why. Harvey" she exclaimed "What is the matter?" "Oh." he replied innocently. “I for- j got my toothbrush."—Success Maca * xine. j Feathers in Style HERE is a growing senti ment against wearing the , u, g plumage of birds, in vane ti ties where cruelty must be ’ practised to secure it Women are learning to discriminate in this matter and to forego the wear ing of plumage that promises to bring about the extinction of a species of beautiful wild birds or to inflict tor ture. A proud crest of dainty feath ers tom from the back of a mother bird and the death of a nest full of fledglings by slow starvation, are not pleasant suggestions to flaunt with the group of sweeping aigrettes upon the bead of beauty. For the wearer must be either uninformed, or indif ferent, or unmindful of cruelty. Non* of the excuses will pass muster with intelligent people. Aside from a very few sorts, the leathers we have worn recently and those we will wear, are made from the plumage of domestic or other edi ble birds. No cruelty is practised in securing them and thousands of peo ple make a living by manufacturing the millinery trimmings made of them. Feather bands, sewed wings, pom pons, breasts and mounted sprays— m fact, a world of afry and attractive decorations—are cleverly fashioned from the feathers of the turkey, chick en. pigeon, peacock and pheasant. These are bleached, dyed, eaten with acids, pieced and pasted until their origin is lost sight of. Other birds of bright plumage, such as the parrot, and birds like the blackbird and spar row. of which there are myriads, are used, but they are not cruelly treated, unless sucden death is cruel. The wearing of a bird upon the hat may be in questionable taste and at present one sees almost no birds, but any amount of plumage. Gradually tne wearing of feathers may die out. but the signs of the times do not point that way More plumage is shown now rhan ever before. Women should learn to discriminate in choosing it. and select those feathers which they may wear with an easy conscience. They are obliged to inform themselves in some states of the Union or run the risk of forfeiting their forbidden property. For laws have been passed and are enforced to protect certain birds, and one may not own their plumage. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. MAKES A DAINTY COSTUME !

So many older women seem to think that because a girl of from four teen to twenty or so is likely to be | callow and sometimes forward and | rather ridiculous in her pretentions oi age and dignity she must be conun uaUy snubbed and “put down." They keep calling her "child" and laugh mg at her opinions and criticisms, and leaving her out of discussion and ; conversation, until some day they awake with a start to realise that the ! child is a woman, and a pert and em I bit!ered woman at that Of course. American girls are no torious for their unpleasant presump tioa. and there are many, many things which a girl in her teens is not com petent to decide for herself, let alone for others, but there is nc reasor why a girl who really is growing up should be made to feel that she is al ways in the way and must be pat I rouised when she is noticed a: alL Give her at least a chance to feel that she is one of the family and that she is a step above the children in the nursery, whom she is likely so to despise Here, as elsewhere, "you will go most safely in the middle.” and this rather delicate problem of maternal | management will settle itself if con sideration and common sense art learned on one side and taught on the other—Exchange Carter* tor Short Socks.

Easy Way to Clean Lace Yokes. If instead of taking lace yokes and cuffs out of dresses to wash wbea soiled they are rubbed with dry starch, then brushed thoroughly, the :ace will look like new.

But with the older woman St is quite a different matter Bhe kw.ks simply ridiculous In these fashionable curtailed skirts, and. far from giving her a girlish appearance. they add rears to her apparent age.

Baroness Aletta KorfT tells in on* of the magazines how the women of Finland came to vote. The fact is that w«men had to show that they could meet an emergency before the vote came to them. They have not had many opportunities to take the initiative in the world's history and they have not always responded when the opportunity came, but when a crisis, such as that in 1904. when the strike and the revolutionary outbreak in Russia took place at the same time, occurred, they proved they could make peace by doing it. Not until England and the 'Called State* find the women helping them to bear some great trouble will they give them th* right to vote. Globular Lightning.

Not long ago Lord Klnnalrd. who la always actively interested in reUgtooa work, paid a surprise visit to a mis sion school in the east end of London and told a class of boys the story erf Samson.

Sometimes a good, healthy commer cial traveler suffers from poorly se lected food and is lucky if he learns that Grape-Nuts food will put him right A Cincinnati traveler says: “About a year ago my stomach got in a bad way.
