That reminds me, Theodore spent one
summer at Lake George long time
ago. He told me all about it. That is
the way with man; when you are en-
gagged to him he tells you everything
about his former summers and laughs
over the girls he met. just know the
everything in her power to land him
and he didn't care a snap for her not
a scrap, but it was awfully amusing to
hear about. Lake George must be a

MOTOR MUSIC POSSIBLE
Inventor May Find Way to Furnish
Automobile Tunes

An ingenious spirit-need it be mem
toned that he is an American ?-has
conceived, says the London Graphic,
the idea of adding to the bicycle and
the motor car the attraction of a musi-
cal instrument. By the cunning adjust
ment of sonorous tubes he proposes to
furnish a sort of combination of Aeo-
liam harp and organ, which, acted upon
by the breeze will give forth harmon-
les of ravishing sweetness. In this way
the lonely scorcher with an ear for
music will be cheered on his way, while
nervous wayfarers will be warned of
his approach by medley of delicious
sounds, instead of by an imperious and
discordent trumpeting suggestive Of the
blowing of some gigantic nose
But why, 1t may be asked, should the
inventor rest content with such vague
results? Why should not a musical box
capable OF grinding out specific tunes
be connected with pedals or motor, and
familiar melodies be employed appro-
PIRATE TO this particular use? The "Erl
Konig" might suit the rushing career
OF the dreaded motor. while Tommy
make room" would be suhiciently dig
nifed for the humble bike" What
does the Automobile club say? The
pedestrians opinion. OF course. has no
importance whatever.

H. my dear, is It you? Come in.

deeply interested 1 am in everything
that concerns you. OF course, 1 know
you had the time Of your life, and I'm
simply dying to hear about it; don't
forget single happening from start to

summer altogether? Such lovely
weather-everything in fact, that a
summer should be! You know, we
spent our season in the mountains-so
clear and beautiful there. Were you
ever at the Moonface inn? No? Well,
really, you ought to go some time. 1

about your summer. Did you ever
know a season when there was so little
disagreeable weather? We didn't have
a particle of 1t in the mountains, and
when Theodore-yes, his name is Theo-
dore-strong sounding, isn't it, and
noble ?-when he took me camping all
through July and August I thought I
never saw such sunsets. Don't you just
rave over sunsets? I do-so orangy and
purply and that sort of thing. Theo-
dore always made me sit in the part of
the boat where the glow fell upon me.
You will understand these things bet
ter, my dear, when the great thing hap

time. never fear! A nice girl like you

things, but, of course, he means them
there is no question about that

ton.
OF course 1 wouldn't tell anyone
else how it happened-not for worlds!
One is naturally reticent about such
matters; but with you-well, you see,
Theodore was introduced the very
night we arrived. He asked Mrs.
Rutterf1eld to do it. She didn't want
to at all, because she has daughter
of her own-that lanl1y girl with the
washed-out eyebrows-as if Theodore
would look at her for a minute! But
he insisted for there was something
that attracted me to him from the
start-such things cannot be explained
my dear, but they exist, and perhaps
you may find out about it some day
SO she had to do it, though she held
out to the very last and waited till
her own daughter had walked up and
down at least a dozen times. Then
she said: "Oh, Miss Anderson, have
you met Mr.. Summerville?" NO" 1
said, 'I haven's and it doesn't look as

Theodore laugh heartily, and he
thought my repartee wonderful. He

inal-frst flowers, then bonbons, then
invitations to drive and after that

life of me how girl could possibly
put up with a man who only did the
ordinary humdrum things-Theodore is
so different!
But. my dear, you are not telling me

you were at Lake George, weren't you?

Perhaps I'll get him to take me for q
few weeks next summer. Did 1 tell
you we are to be married in November?
Yes, the eighteenth-an awfully long
time to wait. You see, we became en-

In his report as Civil Governor of Moro

has been brought practically to an end through
out the sea coast Moro districts, although he
says. 1t undoubtedly continues to some extent
between the inland Moros and the savage
tribes of the interior. General Wood says 1t
would be difficult to imagine a worse form of
slavery, the slaves having absolutely no rights.
No effort has been made to tear these former
slaves from their masters, but ali have been
informed that they free to remain or leave
them. with the result that many former slaves
