Saws Senator Knox: "Of course |

A lot of other men would like also
to be president, too.
There is actually reason for believ-

President Roosevelt we are told, is

If he shows a frolicsome disposition to mingle with the Young People and cut into their outdoor Sports and try to look more like a Commercial Sales man than an Undertaken, so as to re- move the impression that he is hide bound, it is dollars to doughnuts that some venerable old Dodo who man ages a Vinegar Refinery will file Charges against him and that grand cluster of petrlfied Elders will try him on the henious charge of being Worldly.
 Of course in every Municipal Cam paign he must stand up and fight for Civic Righteousness and the Rights of the TaxPayers and Sunday Closing and every other Movement that bears the Reform Tag, and then the Finan- cial Heavyweight who is one of the Mainstays of the Church and hopes to get few lovely Franchises out of the City Council, will fall on MT.

some other Field of Usefulness.
 If he remains Single he cannot hold the gloved Hand of any young Sister for 1-1O0th of Second without hay ing the cold eye of Suspicion glued upon him.
 If he marries and Wifey does not happen to be that matchless combina- tion of Saint and Society Queen that every one thinks she ought to be, the Sewing Circle stops working on Paja- mas for the Hindoos and becomes a grand little Anvil Chorus.
 The Vicar of Wakefield should be oyerhauled if we are to get the true inside history of what happens to the Preacher.
 After he has bumped the Bumps for many Years and crippled himself jumping sideways to avoid Unfortunate Complications, and his Pipes are worn out, and he no longer floats down the Aisle on Sunday morning dressed up like Horse and Buggy, but begins to be little old and careless and slouchy, and keep on handing out the same old Speciality, instead of writing in lot of new Gags, with Light Effects and Popular Songs, he will be mighty lucky if the Congregation does not suddenly discover up in Northfield, Mass, or out in Bloomington, H., some Child Wonder with a Voice like a Bell and a whole lot of New Talk, and the good old Veteran will be expected to pack Up the $200 worth of Household Goods that he has saved out of his Salary in less than 28 Years and brush by with out any Back Talk.
 On the other hand, if he makes a Ten Strike and is reported in the Newspapers, much to the horror of those who believe that a Sermon should consist very largely of an ex- planation of what is meant by those parts of the Old Testament that no one understand, and gets a Call to a metropolis where the Salary is so largo that he will be up in the same Class with Insurance Agents and Veterinary Surgeons, you may rest assured that the Harpoonists will get after him good and plenty for being actuated by Mercenary Motives.
 Oliver Goldsmith was a Nice Man, but what he didn't know about some of the new Deals that have been fixed up for the gentle Minister of the Cos pei would make a Book four times as big as the stingy little Volume that he wrote.

''Oh, bind me If you like," said Charles Edward, with smile and a deprecating movement of his hands; "only listen to me. If you have the courage for this ad- venture tonight, have you not enough courage for more than this? Do you know what the Italian lakes are like In June? Let's go there tomorrow.
 ''You have not understood. I am sorry. Will you kindly let me go?" Lady Hol- brooke rose to her feet.
 "No" said Charles Edward, without moving from where he stood Not yet. The suggestion frightens you. You are afraid of the worlds judgment You hes itate to become an outcast from society.
 It was not the usual way in which a lover describes to the object of his af- fections the results of yielding to a grand passion, yet the young man continued:
 "In the eyes of the world, what I pro- pose is no worse than this"
 "Oh, yes, yes,' said Lady Holbrooke, yet not wholly in tone of convic- tion.
 "Certainly. Come here, where you can look out of the window. You see that man leaning against the park railings. There's your detective. What story will he tell? Of course, l shall swear that have known you for a long time. but they can disprove that You will be shown to have met a perfectly strange young man at the theatre and gone to his rooms What l propose. deep love- a great passion, would almost justify you in the eyes of the world. You hesitate to take 1t, yet you involve yourself in what can only seem intrigue of the most squalid and vulgar sort"
 "This is infamous; it Is unworthy. How can you put it to me this way now now"
 Now that 1t is too late, do you mean?"
 Yes" said the lady, sinking into a chair
 You understand why. Because I think you could come to love me
 Lady Holbrooke shrugged her shoulders.
 Why notY" continued Charles Edward. You don't love your husband"
 The poor lady rested her head wearily on the high stuffed side of her chair. A tear or two started slowly down her cheek. and in a confused way she searched for a handkerchief. For mo- ment the young man hesitated, as though 1t was cruel to go on and then, as If he must go through with it. continued:
 You don't love him. You can't ever have cared much for him when you seized on such a pretext as Nancy Scott for separation. I know her give you my word of honor she is a lady, every inch of her and as straight as a string There couldn't ever have been anything between her and your husband. But thank heaven you thought so, for otherwise I should have no hope"
 Lady Hobrooke was quietly weeping now. Charles Edward took a step for ward and broke his word of honor. He touched her arm.
 'Could you not care for me Hitler" he asked
 She sprang 10 her feet and shook him off.
 "Certainly not" she said fiercely. there's only one man in the world love-
 And that's your husband" said

The Vicar of Wakefield


was known as a Vicar. Now he is known as a good many Things. espe- cially if he dabbles in Politics.
 The Vicar got many a Jolt. After organizing large and hungry Family, he awoke one morning to learn that the Friend who had arranged to let him in on the Ground Floor of Ban ner Proposition was about to file a Petition in Bankruptcy. Liabilities, G82,000; Assets, two Suits of Clothes, a Cameo Ring and Hot Water Bag.
 It is a blessed provision of Nature that nearly every Man who loses his Wad has a fine bunch of Children that are quite beyond the reach of Greedy Creditors. We cannot learn from a careful study of approved Fiction that any old Batch ever went broke He Is lonesome enough, goodness knows, and very Melancholy Figure along about Christmas Time, but he always has a bundle of Money that you couldn't push through Door.
 After being trimmed, the Vicar and his Family were kept close 10 the Carpet. The Book devotes a good many Pages to telling how they were happy, even though they seldom mad one Dollar to rub against another. In fact, the Story leads Us to believe that those who have no Velvet are seldom led into Temptation.
 We know, however. that the Vicar and his devoted Missus and the assort- ed flock of Young Folks did not miss a great deal by being hard up. They lived in the quiet, old-fashioned Days, when a little GoosebeTy Wine and Family Prayers made up hot Com bination with which to fill in long Evening

new and startling Theories, and just aching for chance to trip up the Minister and make him out either a Heretic or a bowling Ignoramus.
 This years Preacher is supposed to have positive Views on the subject of Alcoholic Nourishment.
 Some of the Folks in front believe that the act of absorbing Scotch Highball comes under the same Cate gory as hitting a Crippled Child in the head with an AK.
 Others constituting what is known as the Liberal Element, are known to keep it in the Cellar, after having it delivered to the House in Grocery Wagon. They are agin the Liquor Traffic, but they see no harm in Dutch Lunch with wet trimmings.
 Now all that Friend Minister has to do in discussing the Drink Evil is to be rabid enough to please the Abstainers and yet not drive away from the Fold those who see no harm in a home grown Thirst.

 For a minute or two there was no stunt except the occasional chatter 0h ss', horse going by in Piccadilly. Then ono came along which stopped apparently iust in front of the house, and In mo- mont the door bell sounded, pulled by ,ioorous hand. Lady Holbrooke started up.

And. Of course, you Ve known me for a long time "rhen vou-you." began the lady snlil- ' ing through the tears she was hastening to wipe away. M
 "I what?' asked Charles Edward, with almost a chuclkle
 You don't mean"
 "No. I don't mean any of it. Except
 
 oThat's what you are," exclaimed Lady Holbrooke, and darting forward with sudden Impulsive movement she kissed Charles Edward on the cheek, to that youths utter amazement and indeed se- fore he realized very clearly what was happening.
 .Therer' she said, now I am compro- mixed. But you needn't say anything about it.

 that l extremely want to talk to Mss Scott upon the balcony and that should like to be chaperoned from this room.' I've won't disturb you promised the lady, radiant now, ''and you mustn't ols- turb us I shall have so much to say 70 Godfrey"
 What Lady Holbrooke thought of her young American friend might have been gathered most easily ten days aiter the events above described when he and MISS Scott. with some others, made up week end party at Brookstede. The hostess thought she had reason to suppose tna- Charles Edward had proposed, ana III vain. to the adorable Nancy. She under took to plead his cause with the young woman.
 Yes" answered Miss Scott "all you say of him and more Is true. like him awfully. But I'm not a marrying woman Not even a falling-in-loye womans I m afraid. Besides" she continued. in vein or banter which Lady Holbrooke was beginning to find comprehensible, ''if were susceptible I should be in love with Lord Holbrooke." "Oh. there is no one like Godfrey" said that gentleman's wife, beaming, but Mir Austin is wonderful Hes more than that said Nancy with the air of summing up the matter, ''he is Charles Edward

differences of opinion in the family had at last crystalized into the question of what their relations should be with Miss Nancy Scott.
 Lady Holbrooke did not know Miss Scott, and refused to. Her husband had made Nancy's acquaintance at time when his wife had declined to leave Brookstede. The child had died young, and it's mother had clung despairingly 10 the lonely life she had chosen to lead. Charles Edward divined the at aempts which her husband had made to distract the current of her thoughts, and curiously enough he diyined also that Lord Holbrooke had admired and deeply loved his wife. But he also guessed how the continual strain of quiet life at Brookstede was more than the com panionship loving earl could bear.
 As to the definite question of Miss Nancy Scott, Lady HolbrooSe was more precise. Even to the quiet of Brook stede had female friends of hers managed to carry the tale of Miss Scott's bril- liant career and of the constant presence of Lord Holbrooke in her train.
 q cannot allow you to make yourself absolutely notorious in London with an actress" would be the lady's suggestion put concisely.
 'If you mean that, I'm in love with her; it's not so.'
 .sJumph! know what actresses are"
 ''You would like her enormously. Above all things, wish that you and she might be friends She is the one person who could thoroughly reconcile you to what you call my low Bohemian life in Lon don"
 The discussions at Brookstede rose to a pitch when Lady HoTprooke began to talk rather wildly about divorce.
 Tt is out of the question:" protested her husband. You cant charge me with cruelty, and you can't charge me with any other offense."
 The "impasse" thus presented to her view gave the final twist to Lady Hol- brooke's quivering nerves. This was the morning of the very day when this mar rative began She could not divorce her husband. He laughingly assured her that he would not divorce her, and that he could not if he would. His laughter jan gled in her ears, and, white hot with rage to her own astonishment almost as much as 10 his, she found herself telling her husband that he should have evidence which would force him to divorce her within twenty-four hours.
 Laws are foolishly arranged" she said to Charles Edward as the coffee came, "but one finds way through them some times. I went to the play tongiht with mt A ghost of an idea. Now I want you to drive me to your rooms Possibly you could let me have a little more of your time And then perhaps we could tax for A half alour. That's all l think you understand, and you are gentleman"
 ..Yes. I think so," said her companion gently ..and understand. But" and he hesitated. "how are you to make sure

 Could he have got any Action for his Money? Not so you could have noticed it.
 Why grieve over the Hard Luck Story of a Household that was on deck long before people had learned how to roll their Money?
 Nowadays the Lady of the House who is on her Uppers picks up the bargain sheet of the Sunday Paper and sees the Pictures of 100000 things that she wants to buy and can't.
 In 1750 the woman who was flat had nothing to worry her. The family across the street did not have any Electric Runabout or a Talking Ma chine in the Front Room which you could hear a Mile away when all the windows were open.

 q thought it all out" she answered, "and I sent word to a detective agency this morning that was to be watched tonight"
 You sent word?"
 Well, of course. I signed my hus- bands name'
 The situation was not lacking in piauancy, Charles Edward felt. But he also felt that 1t was not the part of q hero of fantastic adventure to act in any comedy without himself rearranging it somewhat and playing therein the role of minor Providence. Lady Holbrooke' s condolences had put him in possession of half the materials for his plot The sin gular chance that he knew Miss Nancy Scott gave gave him the other half, for he felt that it helped him to understand better than most people could the rights and wrongs of the Holbrooke quarrel
 Charles Edward felt himself a compe tent fudge of what her feelings for Lord Holbrooke were He had seen them to- gether once and he mad recognized in Nancy the signs of friendliness of the most unmixed type. At least, Lady Hol- brooke's story. it may be taken, had not in any way affected his liking for Miss Scott, because. while his companion se- cured her coat from the cloakroom, he sent a hurriedly penciled note to the American actress, whose party stll lin sered at their table so far to one end of the room that they had apparently not observed the hero of this tale nor his guest.
 ".
 Lady Holbrooke's story had to cer- tain extent quenched the gayety with which the supper began. Perhaps now that adventure was becoming more ad- venturous the lady's courage faltered Or perhaps it was that silence on the part of the gentleman was only the calm which, as is well known to his friends Is apt to preeede peculiarly pyrotechnic outburst of Charles Edwardism.
