and a certain light of interest grew in
her eyes fer she could not help noticing
that Beatrice Cromwell had gone I'M
naturally white and that she would not

During dinner she watched very ca

but there were none. Also none APP
peared later during the evening, and
at last, when Mrs. Cartwright went TO
bed, she said to herself, disgustedly,
that she had been entirely too ready
with her suspicious.
The men, left below, had gravitated
to the billiard room. and after a
sketcby game of pool had settled them
selves very comfortably on the leather
cushions in one corner of the room.
Carol Cartwright had taken the sec
ond sip from his long drink when the
butler called him to the door. He re-
turned in n moment with concern and
apology in his face.
Can you chaps make yourselves
comfortable for an hour without me?'
he said. I've got to go over to the
farm. My farmer man there has had
fit or a stroke of something. 1t APP
pears He's a good old chap. I must
have a look at him. 1 shall be back in
an hour
The other two men said yes. of
course. 1t was all right, not to think
of them. and then. when Cartwright
had gone, each of them drew a rather
long breath and took a further look at
the other over the top of his glass.
Cromwell threw away J's cigar and
lighted a cigarette which he smoked
half down in silence, Ticking off the
ash with an distracted finger He was
a rather handsome man. somewhat be-
tween 80 and 80, with square face
and a mouth that closed straight and

college days, and now he played polo
and squash in the intervals of burning
incense before his beautiful Wife.
I'm glad Carol has gone" he said,
at last, looking up at the other man
| with a little nervous laugh of apology
for his words. you see" he said, Il
this gives me a chance to- want 10
talk to you about something, rather
frankly-that is. if you don't mind"
The smoke stood still for an instant
over the other mans cigar, and his
eyes narrowed q bit, but his voice
when he spoke, seemed entirely natural
and at ease.
Right said he. Fire away. ]
don't know what you want to talk
about, but-fire away, I'm listening. -
We'll, you see," said Cromwell. and
halted again, frowning down at the CT
gazette which he held between his fin
gers. You See he repeated and
stuck. He seemed unable to choose his
words

smoking rapidly. who was-and is
several thousand times too good for
me, you know
"Oh, my dear chap,'' said the painter.
who doesn't marry a girl thousand
times too good for him ?"
And" said Cromwell, as If he had
not been interrupted, "a girl who-who
was not only too good for me, but was
lin love with another man."
"Ah,'' breathed Mr.. Wareham, in
that same still tone.
How she happened to marry me-"
Cromwell went on, God knows-God
and she. Neither one has ever explain
ed it to me. Perhaps it was because
she knew how very much I-I-cared
about her. because she knew | should
always care for her whether she cared
for me or not. Perhaps that was why"
But the other man?" questioned
Wareham, gently, and. once more the
smoke stood still over his cigar He
did not raise his eyes. THE other
naanp' he said "Why didn't she marry
him? Or, is that secret also in God S
keeping and hers?"
HE never asked her to marry him."
said Cromwell. aHe didn't want to
marry her He wasn't a marrying
man." He spoke in a tone in which
wonder and a sort of fierce resentment
were blended.
Fancy a man caring about-her." he
said, land not wanting to marry her.
I can't can't see it at all, you
know" Then suddenly an odd little
flare of nervous anger seemed TO rise
in him.
.'Oh. damn this fareer' he cried
why can't We speak out? We
might as well speak out. Beatrice was
in love with you, Wareham, at the time
she married me. She had been in love
with you, fancy, for a long time-two
or three years. She-she told me so
very frankly before we were married.
She warned me that she wasn't at all
sure she'd ever get over it. She wanted
to make it plain on what grounds she
was--coming to me-just how little she
/ had to offer me. She-Bee has odd lit
tie moods. now and then, of wanting
to confess-like child, just like a
collaborating to make a clean breast
of everything she's got on her mind:

but that you'd never asked her to mar
ry you. At first, in the beginning of
1 it, she says she thought you were go

and she expected that as g natural con-
! sequence. Then she began to wonder
and wait, and wait, and then she fell

much alarmed about her, and, at last,
after a long time, Misunderstood.

has made me talk to you about all this
tonight is that / believe she still cares

cry, and the cigar dropped from his
raised fingers, covering his knees with
ashes.
"Stin cares for me?'' he said. staring
at the other man. For me? Oh. you're

heart then. That woman is unhappy
now because of it, Don't you see what

Wareham shaded his eyes with his
hand and continued to watch the other
mans troubled. twitching face.

Wareham rose abruptly TO his feet
and began to pace back and forth
across the room. shifting his hands to-
gether before him. The situation, with
'ts wholly unloOked-for drama, appeal
ed keenly to his histrionic nature. A
pleased. excited little laugh forced it
self TO his lips as he moved across the
room. He was great painter, I'm spite
of his youth. About that there could
be no argument, but, to the forming OF
that chemical combination which had,
as it were, surcnarged one section of
his brain, had gone certain elements
whose presence elsewhere was sadly
needed. To put the thing very briefly
he had, to the full, that triple nature,
ddeyilgod. which we call the ar
tistic temperament.
1t was quite characteristic that in
his train of thought there was not one
true, manly element of generosity, not

Mrs. Cartwright dashed into the

plaintively. "You needn't tell me I'm

He looked toward the other two guests,
and Mrs. Cartwright said

do you? Mrs. Cromwell, let me present

Public Seems to Be in Ignor-
ance in Reference to the
Postal Laws.
TROUBLE FOR EVERYBODY.
TiNsEL POST CARDS CAUSE THE
MOST TROUBLE BECAUSE THEY
MUST BE ENCLOSED AND TWO
CENTS USED.

An average of fifty souvenir postal
cards are mailed daily by Richmond
postOffice patrons, who fail usually,
through lack of knowledge of the pos
tai laws to comply with the govern
ment regulations concerning such mat
ters. AS result just that many soul
venir postal cards are held until Post
master Spekenhier or his clerks can
notify the intended recipients and
make known to them that additional
postage is needed. 1t is generally
through lack of postage that the trou-
bic arises.
Meanwhile there are at least fifty
Richmond people every day who send
postal cards as loving remembrances.
and never know that there is someone
at the other end of the line who is of
the opinion that they should study the
postal laws and put on enough stamps
the next time
This is somewhat embarrassing to
the people both sending and receiving
the cards, but that isn't all. The postal
clerks are also among the victims, due
to the lack of knowledge of the postal
laws. For every postal card mailed
without a sufficient amount of postage,
or otherwise failing to comply with the
law. the clerks must notify the in
tended recipient of the card in case
the name of the sender cannot be learn
ed. In response the intended recipient
sends back the required amount of
postage, not so much because they de-
sire to but through curiosity. Then
again the clerks get busy and place the
proper amount OF postage on the cards,
and they are sent on their way.
1insel caros are responsible for the
greater amount of trouble. This is be-
cause they have to be placed in envel-
opes and by so doing they are accord
ing to postal rules, letters. and require
the same amount of postage.
Thousands of souvenir cards are han.
died by the local postoffice eacn week.
This is not all-the craze is growing
unabated and Postmaster Spekenbier
says he thinks merchants will get rich
off the bits of pastebOard if people con-
tinue TO buy as heavily as they have in
the past.

PAY THE NOTES AND
FORGET ABOUT It.
This Is a Lawyers Advice to
Farmers Who Subscribed
To Cooperative Stock.
ARE VICTIMS OF A SCHEME.
CONCERN WAS TO FURNISH THE
STOCKHOLDERS WITH VARIOUS
SUPPLIES AT A PRICE BELOW
THE USUAL ONE.

HagerSfown, Ind. Nov. 2-Farmers
in this part of Wayne county and the
adjoining part of Horny subscribed
literally to scheme that was pre-
sented to them last winter by two
men who are described as being the
most persuasive takers ever seen bv
the rural investor. These men sold
shares of stock in cooperative con-
Germ in Ohio. which shares entitled
the owners to a division Of profits
also to purchase all Kinds of tools i'm
plements and agricultural suppIies at
n reduction ranging from 10 to 25 per
cent below the usual price
Meetings were held in school houSps
and the farmers were told that M
such opportunity was ever presented
before. The result was that many
shares were disposed Of. Most farm.
ers gave their notes for the stock 50
issued and the amounts ranged from
$40 to $400. Now the notes are turn
ing up in banks and notices urge
prompt payment Up to this time no
dividends have been declared. neither
has any of the purchasers been able
to obtain implements. tools or other
supplies at cut rates
The farmers have been advised hv
a New Castle lawyer that as easy q
way out of the trouble as they can
find is to quietly pay the notes when
they become due and forget it.

TRUSTEE MAY CONTROL
ALL PUBLIC SCHOOLS
HagerstoWn Authorities Con-
slider a Plan of This Kind.
FUNDS NOT SUFFICIENT.

Hagerstown, Ind. Nov. 2.-The Ha-
gerstown school board and teachers
have been considering the propriety
of relinQuishing control over the town
schools and turning them over to the
township trustee, thereby giving that
official control of both town and coun-
ty schools. Some of the reasons Civ
en- for TIE proposed change are that
it is difficult TO maintain the town
schools at their present high standard
with the funds obtainable and when
the new law comes into effect. and
the salaries of teachers must be rails
ed. it will be impossible to meet the
expense and maintain the present
standard.
