[♦| Mary Gertrude Sheridan
(Copyright. 1915. by W. G. Chapman.)
“Nothing will ever mend it'." sobbed
Eunice Martin.
“Mend what?" questioned her friend
and confidant, Mrs. Almie Tresham.
“My broken heart!" was the wailing
response.
"Nonsense! Why, child, you are
making a mountain out of a mole hill
YouDg men must have their swing.
Mr. Tresham himself, sedate and well
behaved as he is now. was a positive
chevalier before I married him.”
“I despise flirting!" flashed out Eu
nice.
"And your affianced lover, Roy Por
ter, has been flirting, has he?"
“Abominably. And worse!" pro
nounced Eunice severely. “He is
down at Brook Haven—for a week's
rest, he claimed. 1 have some friends
there. They say that he is the con
stant companion of a dashing young
lady whom nobody know s. They are
out automobiling most of the time.
They are almost inseparable. They
take long, mysterious jaunts. Oh.
niv!" and fair Eunice broke down in
tears.
“Why don't you write to him and
call him to time?" suggested Mrs
Tresham.
“Oh, never that! I'd wear my heart
out first. I'm too proud for that.”
“Well, Eunice," spoke her friend so
berly, “you should have encouraged
my brother Walter. You had won him
half way out of his shyness and then
"Why Don't You Write to Him?"
dropped him for Roy. 1 am sure be
would never cause you any jealousy."
Distressed as Eunice was. the sug
gestion was too ludicrous.
"Oh, my. no—dear old Walter? He's
good as gold, but he never thought of
me in any way except as his sister s
friend. Why, Walter cares more for
a rare bird s egg or a new butterfly
specimen than he does for all the
women in the world. But Roy—oh,
it's hard to lose faith in him after we
were so happy." and Eunice wept on
her friend';, shoulder, the latter try
ing to console her and promising to
help out some way in the situation.
But how? Mrs Tresham dubiously
questioned herself as she started
homewards, and then—along came
Patty.
Never was a friend and adviser
more welcomed Unexpected, too, but
then Patty was always bobbing in at
odd minutes in her queer, erratic,
flashing way.
"Why, my dear girl!” cried Mrs.
Tresham tumultuously. "Who ever ex
pected to see you?”
"Didn’t you invite me last year?"
“I did; and certainly reinvite you
now!" declared Mrs. Tresham enthusi
astically, with a lively remembrance
of this "everybody's friend," who had
ruled the girls at the college, a popu
lar queen.
There had been but one Patty, and
she "just came along." A new. strange
student found a wise and powerful
chaperone in Patty; the homesick
were petted and nursed into content
by this bright, heartscme creature,
who had never had a home of her
i own.
When Patty chirped the robins used
to sit around and call back, she had
so sweet and compelling a warble.
Should Patty whistle to a dispirited
dog, the animal straightway plucked
up hope and courage and went into a
spasm of delight, tracing an end to
its hunger in the promising twinkle of
Patty's eye.
She was twenty-four, but petite, and
looked sixteen. Patty had the wisdom
of forty-six. . She had come to visit
her old school friend just in the nick
of time, it seemed, for next morning
Mrs. Tresham told her about the
troubles of mourning Eunice, and
Patty's clever eyes sparkled.
"A naughty boy—tiff—hearts sun
dered—oh, dear me! I'll have to try
and mend all that. Just as soon as I
| get through looking over those won
I derful specimens of beetles that won
derful brother of yours half showed me
i yesterday. I'll take a run down to
j Brook Haven and look over the
ground."
"Why, you speak pretty fine of that
dull, self-centered brother of mine,
Patty!” smiled Mrs. Tresham.
"Walter?” replied Patty effusively.
‘I dote on him! He’s the most sensi
ble, and therefore the most interest
ing young man I have met in a year.”
"I declare!” Walter told his sister
in his grave, matter-of-fact way after
Patty had gone, “this Patty of yours
is the most congenial and original
young lady I ever knew."
"She's original, yes," smiled Mrs.
Tresham. "and a regular drlveahead
1 always loved her, she is such a
brighS busy, helpful little mite. 1 love
her more than ever since she said
some nice things about you."
"About me!” gasped Walter, and
his face turned red as a beet, but
his eyes expressed rare content.
"It’s all right about your trouble
with Roy.” the young society matron
assured Eunice the following day.
“Why do you say that?" murmured
Eunice, still in the depths of suspi
cion, jraiousy and despair over her
absent lover.
“Well, along came Patty, and 1 told
her everything, and because she is
my friend and you are mine, she is go
ing to see this affair out. She has
gone down to Brook Haven. Oh, trust
me, Patty will straighten out this
tangle!"
“But maybe—maybe," faltered Eu
nice, "she will fall in love with Roy
herself! ’’
"You odious creature!" railed Mrs.
Tresham—"when I am wanting her for
a sister-in-law!”
"Oh, I know Roy has completely for
gotten me." declared Eunice utterly
crushed and wretched the next eve
ning. as she sat on the porch weep
ing and her friend trying to console
her. “I haven't had a letter from Roy
for two days now. AVid a friend at
Brook Haven wrote me that he and
this Miss Betty are together more
than ever."
"We shall hear from Patty soon, I
hope," soothingly spoke Mrs. Tresham,
and then abruptly: "There is some
body ! "
An automobile had chugged up to
the curb A light form in chauffeur
garb leaped lightly to the pavement
and advanced jauntily up the graveled
garden path.
"Mrs. Tresham here?" spoke up a
bold, silvery voice. "Oh. yes!" and
Patty, irresistible, audacious, vimful,
threw up the visor of the cap she
wore, disclosing bright, smiling eyes.
"Why Patty! What are you doing
in this trim? Miss Martin, this is the
dear friend I have told you about."
spoke Mrs. Tresham.
“You poor, grieving dear!" and im
pulsive Patty took Eunice by the arms
and kissed her first on one cheek and
then on the other, and Eunice blushed
at the thought of permitting a kiss
from one in masculine attire. ‘I've
only got a few minutes to spare. You
see. 1 am acting as chauffeur for Mr.
Porter and his lady friend I bribed
the garage man to let me do it. They
are looking over some papers at a
farm house near here, and 1 ran down
to ask you two to keep a secret.”
"A secret!" repeated Mrs. Tresham,
interested.
a secret: ecnocu tunice, appre
hensively.
"Yes. Oh. you dear little goose!"
Patty addressed herself to Eunice.
"Why. this mysterious Miss Davey is
in reality Mrs. Davey. She has a crip
pled husband and they adore each oth
er He was not able to come down
to this district to straighten out some
titles to an estate he inherited. A
good friend of Mr. Porter recommend
ed him as a capable lawyer, and Mr.
Porter gets his first fee—a thousand
dollars. He wants to surprise you,
hence his absence on business.”
"Oh. how I have wronged dear, dear
Roy!" wailed Eunice, in a tempest of
tears.
In propria persona, along came
Patty the next morning.
Fresh as a daisy, bright as a dew
drop, sweet and womanly, but with a
happy sparkle in her eyes, her first
query of Mrs. Tresham was:
“Where is Walter?”—and that told
the story.
Dome of St. Paul's.
The origin of the famous dome of
St. Paul's, which has puzzled London
architects for many generations, ap
pears to have been solved by ex
perts of the Royal Asiatic society
They now say it was copied from the
fourteenth century wooden dome of
the Great Mosque at Damascus. "Rius
is hRS had a pagan origin, distinctive
ly indicated by its inner and outer
shell. When Timur, the Asiatic con
queror. sacked Damascus, at the close
of the fourteenth century, he carried
the idea of the Great Mosque back
home. The dome spread over Persia,
and appeared in India in the six
teenth century. The Persians covered
their domes with gilded tiles, which
somethimes can be seen flashing
thirty miles away. The Persians dis
covered how a really large dome
could be set over a square chamber,
a problem the Romans failed to solve.
Daylight-Saving Scheme.
Considerable attention is now being
given throughout Canada to a so
called daylight-saving scheme. The
movement in Halifax is in accord with
an effort ail over the dominion to
have the clocks put back one hour on
April 1 each year, continuing to some
autumn month, in order to give more
daylight for work and pleasure. Meet
ings are now being held ail over Can
ada with a view to bringing the mat
ter to the attention of the federal par
liament at its next session. The Hali
fax committee is composed of repre
sentatives of the city council, trades
and labor council, and wholesale and
retail merchants.
-—
He Saw It All.
There is nothing the matter with
the ' lamps'' of an aged Southerner
in New York on his first visit. "You
have some good lookers here,” was
his comment. “But 1 saw a lot of
women coming into the hotel the other
night with lots of silk dragging that
should have been wrapped around
their shoulders. But the real sight
was one 1 saw in a dance place up
town. Some of them did not have
much of anything on. and what they
did wear looked like wet bathing suits
on a girl at the beach.”
Frank, Anyway.
"I can never marry you—”
"Then you'll break my heart.”
"Let me finish. 1 can never marry
you until—”
"Please don’t ask me to save up a
certain sum of money first. That
would take too long.”
“Please don't interrupt me again. 1
can never marry you until I'm con
vinced nobody else wants me."

Turners Make Good Soldiers.
“More than 15.000 German turners
have been decorated with the Iron
Cross since the world war was de
clared,” writes Dr. Hugo Ruehl, sec
retary of the Deutsche Turnerschaft.
in a letter to George Brosius, veteran
! Milwaukee turnmaster.
In commenting upon the ability of
turners as soldiers. Prof. Brosius
says;
“The exceptional training that turn
i ers are given in Germany makes them
most efficient as soldiers. There are
more than 800,000 serving the kaiser
i In their gymnastic training, long
j marches have always played an im
| portant part.”
A Cook's Tour.
”1 saw your touring car speeding
! toward the station this morning. Who
| was the young lady in it?”
“That was our cook.”
''What! And you sent her to the
! station in your big machine?"
"Surest thing you know. We didn't
want to take any chances on her
missing the eight o'clock train to
| town. So long, old man. I've got to
! go and see a doctor about my indi
! gestion."
_
She Understood.
"I took my wife out to the ball game
j yesterday,” said Fansome.
“I know you suffered.” said Park
i way.
"Indeed I did! The home team gave
a rotten exhibition of ball playing and
the caustic comments my wife made
kept me squirming until the last man
was out.”
Logical.
“Why are you so violently opposed
tc woman suffrage?”
“Women haven’t got the intellect to
grapple with problems of state. Why,
even we men don’t know what we'B
talkirs about half the time when we’s
discussing politics.”
Would Hurt Business.
“Are you still selling those illumina
ted signs reading. 'Nix on war talk?'”
“No. I got discouraged and quiL”
"What happened?”
“I tried to sell one to a saloon
keeper.”
Becoming Bald.
“Mamma. I want a new hairbrush.”
"Why, Tommie?"
"Because my old one is getting
’ bald.”
The college girl's idea of a scandle
; is the story of another girl's failure
i to "make" a sorority.
Some men climb up in the world,
and a lot more remain at the bottom

SHUNNED BY THE MEXICANS
Caves Supposed to Be “Possessed by
the Devil,” Into Which None
Willingly Enter.
"Ancient caves in different parts of
Mexico otten contain the skulls and
bones of former inhabitants, whether
prehistoric or of later times, some
times containing fine fashioned flint
implements.
"The natives, as a rule, fear to go
into these places. ‘Do not enter, se
nor,’ they will say, as, with Anglo
Saxon lack of superstition, you deter
mine to explore them; ‘some evil be
falls those who meddle with the re
mains of the dead.’
“And if they are prevailed upon to
assist they cross themselves devoutly
before descending or entering. Weird
tales they unfold afterward of men
who have gone into such places and
found their exit barred by some evil
spirit, they themselves having been
encountered dead and cold upon the
cavern floor when discovered by their
relatives, who had searched for the
missing one!
"According co the peons, the scenes
of murder or wickedness which may
have taken place In such situations are
enacted again to the terrified vision
of the unhappy witness who had the
temerity to venture ito these places
possessed of the devil, for the king
of darkness is an ever-present and
active element of the poor Mexican’s
superstitious world.”
An Essential Particular.
