ll' EAFRATERNlTlES

The leading Pythians of Washington are
greatly pleased with the decision of the
District Commissioners in denying the pro-
test made by certain property owners in the
vicinity of the new Pythian temple
against the use of any part of the new
temple a banquet or general assembly
hall, which might be let to other parties.
The decision of the Commissioners was
unanimous, and the work of building the
temple will be pushed briskly. The grand
chancellor has arranged for the laying of
the cornerstone of the new temple some
time in the month of May, and the cere-
mony will be one of great interest to the
fraternity in particular and the public in
general. A distinguished United States sem
ator will make the Grafton on the occasion
of the laying of the cornerstone, and many
prominent Pythians of Washington will
participate in the event. Their active in
terest in the ceremony will be shared by
the entire local membership of the order
and by the large number of members of
the Senate and House and department Of
ficials who are actively concerned in the
progress and prosperity of the order. The
District officials will be invited to partici-
pate, and 1t is expected the ceremony will
be rendered notable in many ways.
The objection Of the neighboring property
owners was in no way addressed to the
der of knights of Pythias, as the protes-
tantS all stated to the Commissioners. 1t
was made solely on the point that the main
hall of the temple could be leased to other
organizations, some of which might not
prove as dependable as the Pythian frater
nifty. The Commissioners, however, ex-
pressed entire confidence in the Pythian Or
der. and decided the case accordingly.
The attendance at the hearing included
many leading Pythians, ranging from Past
Grand Chancellor and Past Supreme Rep
resentative Amos j. Cunning, the latter
having Deen~at the head of the order here
thirty-fve years ago, to Thomas A. Bynum,
the energetic present head of the fraternity
in this District.
1t is probable that some time early next
year the Pythian fair general committee,
headed by DR.. D. Elmer Wiber, may hold
second Pythian fair to complete the raising
of funds for the temple The first fair, held
in April of last year, was a success in every
respect.

Luncheon and Breakfast.-To the ques-
tion SO often asked, What is the differ
ence between a luncheon and the fashion
able breakfast" the answer is this: A
breakfast is always given as near II
o'clock as possible, while luncheon may
come an hour or two later. While both
these functions are considered, as rule,
to be purely feminine, Easter week, being
holiday week, is an exception, and men are
often invited. The menu in either case
usually begins with fruit-grape fruit,
choice strawberries served au naturel, or
salpicon of fruit
Fruit Salpicon.-All fruit salpicons are
prepared in exactly the same way, the only
difference being in the combination OF
fruits Sugar and water are boiled to-
gether until the syrup spins thread; lem
on juice to cut 1t is added. then two or
more kinds of fruit. Rum or sherry is
commonly used in the fiavoring, though
many who object to anything alcoholic
favor pineapple juice After the fruit and
juices are put together they should be
stood away in cold place for an hour or
two to properly blend and mingle flavors
For making the proper combination of
fruits and fiavors, no hard and fast rules
can be given, taste and skill being the es-
sentials required. Raspberries and cur
rants, two parts of the former to one OF
the latter, always blend delightfully."-;
Strawberries and orange juice go well to-
gether; pineapple, orange and banana; ba-
mana and lemon; pineapple, banana and
leinOI, DdHdnd, lemon ana Orange, CueillcS
and pineapple juice; cherries and mar
aschino; Chinese oranges and candied gin
ger; cranberres and raisns; raisins and
tart apples; pear, apple or ounce with
lemon, while grape fruit is delicious COM
bined with white grapes and maraschino.
To Start the Luncheon.-When grape
fruit serves as the introduction to an elab-
crate luncheon, it is usually cut in the
shape of basket. the pulp removed, every
bit of the bitter membrane taken out, then
the pulp returned to it's basket, sprinkled
with sugar, favored with a dash of Santa
Cruz rum, and decorated with one or two
candied cherries. This course is always
served ice cold-a necessity with all SINH
lar combinations of fruit.

| feels an interest in me; he is generous
and large-hearted towards any one he
befriends. But, for the rest-I am sim.
ply ridiculously conceited. / am pretty,
but no doubt he has seen hundreds oi
beautiful women, and mere flesh and
blood would not attract him as they
would a man of Thorn Nugent's stamp.
She tossed restlessly to and fro, and
the morning sun found her white and
worn for lack of sleep. Although she
could not know it, Godfrey had not had
a more enviable night. He had played
difficult part that evening, and when
Nugent left he had felt intensely tired.
From tie moment when he and his guest
had entered the drawing room, Mr.. Stand
ard had assumed the new role which he
had set himself. He had sat down by
his mother instead of going to the piano
where Custance was sitting, and had
watched Nugent take his place and bend
down to speak to her.
But he had schooled his voice, and, in
stead Of avoiding speaking to them
which would have been easier-he had
laughingly asked Custance to sing and
had mentioned song-a little Irish
ballad for which he cared nothing-tell-
ing himself that he was lunatic to think
he detected faint note of disappoint-
ment in her acquiescence, or that she
grew more silent as the evening wore on.
Later, with his usual courteous consider
alton, he had advised her not to stand SO
near the open window; but he had al
lowed Nugent to wrap shawl around
her shoulders and had only held his
breath for second when he noticed how
the mans hands fingered over their task
and tried to touch the white chin.
After their guest had departed and
Miss Madison had retired, he had kept
his mother up for half an hour, giving
her brief outline of Thorn's story, and
plan Of his own to smooth
over the difficulty.
Mrs. Standard had checked sigh.
Certainly, she had said gently. Of
course l will do anything 1 can to help
the foolish young people. But I wish
Custance had told me herself. thought
she would have confided in me, for I
have grown so fond Of her.
She has known you only short time,
mother, and l am afraid she has had
good reason to regard the world with
suspicion, poor child. / think it would

can stop her. If I could only see Mr..
Standard
Mary sat thinking for minute; then,
with little air Of determination peculiar
to her, she folded the letter and, deposit
ing it in her pocket, went upstairs and
put on her bonnet. She left the precious
baby in nurses care, with solemn in
functions what was to be done with her
should she wake, and then with unmoved
resolution she set out for the headquar-
tiers OF Godfrey Standards philanthropic
work.
When she arrived at the office it was
four O'Clock. The hall porter knew her
and touched his hat smilingly.
Mr. Richardss room, madam? he said,
more as an assertion than question.
No, thank you, was the visitors unex-
pected answer. Is Mr.. Standard here?
Yes, madam.
Then | should like to see him.
Three minutes later she was ushered
into the sanctum where Godfrey was
ensconced. There was no one else in the
room, and he rose to greet her at once
with his pleasant smile.
Why. Mrs. Richards, I have not seen
you for long time! he exclaimed, shak-
ing her hand heartily. Pray sit down.
What can l do for you?
In spite of his cordial smile Mr.. STAN
dard looked i'll and worried, as his yis-
itor was quick to notice. Oddly enough,
the fact afforded her qualification, al
though she had great respect and esteem
for this young man who had played so
noble part towards her husband.
l hope it is Custance, who is the cause
of it, she thought, and not business.
But shall find out directly.
Mr.. Standard, am come on rather a
difficult errand, Mary began, in her pleas
ant quiet voice. But have it so much
at heart that have ventured to consult
you about it. My little friend, Custance
Madison, whom you so kindly made
your mothers companion
: Godfrey's pen dropped heedlessly on to
the sheet of paper before him, leaving a
great blot. He turned quickly, his face
shade whittier and more troubled than
before.
1t is Custance, the woman determined.
Miss Madison is quite we'll, Godfrey
assured-or was day or so ago.

all in my power to smooth your way,
Nugent; at all events, | will cancel the
debt at once and leave her free to follow
her inclination.
Nv dear fellow-and Nugent shrugged
his shoulders-I am afraid that she will
never allow you to do SO.
Oh, l shall not tell her why! Miss
Madison las not chosen to give me her
confidence, and I certainly shall not
appear to be in possession Of her secrets.
She can tell me afterwards, if she chooses;
but shall find way to satisfy her that
she owes me nothing.
1t is awfully good of you, Nugent as
serted warmly. You don't know how
perplexed I was. Thanks awfully, old
fellow! Shake hands and congratulate
me, won't you?
! do congratulate you-most heartily!
l think you will have most sweet wife!
Godfrey held out his hand to the other
and endeavored to stife his own bitter
pain. Now suppose we 90 into the draw
ing-room, he suggested.
CHAPTER VI
The night that Custance had thought
would be too full of happy thoughts for
sleep was certainly spent in wakefulness,
but from a different cause. A sudden
shadow had fallen over her hopes and
happiness alike, and it was worse because
she could give no reason for its presence.
Godfrey Standards manner had not
changed-at least it had not lost any of
its usual kindness towards her-and yet
with blank dismay she realized that the
love. of which she had felt so sure was
not at all apparent. There was nothing
to tell ~that it had ever existed, and she
felt sense OF humiliation as she realised
that she had been deceiyiDg herself.
Because one man-and that a bad one
me, | must needs think every
other l meet is in love with me, she
thought bitterly. After all, why should
Ia poor penniless outcast, whom he
rescued from absolute starvation, with no
qualifications for the wife he wants
attract Godfrey Standard? No doubt he
