Chapter

NILE letter which gives Julia Rob-
ms the history Of that-Sunday-
SO eventful alike for France and
for Sophy-is the last word of
hers from Paris. Julia attached impor-
lance to it perhaps for its romantic fla
yor, perhaps because she fancied that
danger threatened her friend. At any
rate, she bestowed it with the care she
gave to the later letters and did not ex-
pose 1t to the hazards which destroyed
most of Its predecessors. 1t is dated
from Marie Zerkovitch's apartment in
the Rue du Bac, and it ends, II shall
stay here. whatever happens. unless
Casimir tells me to meet him In Ber-
limp
The rash comprehensiveness Of
whatever happens" was not for times
like those, when neither man nor na-
ton knew what fate an hour held, but
for three weeks more she abode with
Marie Zerkovitch. Marie was much
disturbed in her mind. Zerkovitch had
begun to send her ominous letters from
the front-or. as near thereto as he
could get. The burden Of them was
that things looked bad for the French
and that her hold on Paris should be q
loose one. He urged her to go home
where he would Join her, for visit at
all events, very likely to stay. Marie
began to talk of going home in week
or SO, but she fingered on for the sake
Of being nearer the news Of war. So,
amid the rumors Of unreal victories
and the tidings Of reyerses only too
real, If not yet great; the two women
waited.
Casimir had found time and oppor-
tunity to send Sophy some half dozen
notes assuming she preserved all she
received). On the 9th of August, the
eve of Worth, he wrote at somewhat
greater length: ut is night. I am of

LODALL.E:R
The Beautiful

No quality helps more in selling a
roadster than elegant conformation and
style. If you get these qualities you
have to breed for them and a horse to
transmit them. surely must not only
possess them himself, but.must inherit
them strongly through both sire and
dam. Lodaller's sire, Allerton, 2:091,
il noted for string beauty when bred to
mares like the dams of Lodaller and
Locanda.
The dam of Lodaller, Lodina, 2:181,
was, in racing condition, one of the
handsomest mares that ever scored for
4 the word. Like her son, she could race
and maintain her good looks. Her
series of spllt-heat races with Chain
Shot, 2:064, over Wisconsin half mile
tracks, in her last campaign, proved
her much greater trotter than her
record indicates. Her defeat of Chain
Shot at Beaver Dam, was pronounced
by Pres. Newton, of the Wisconsin
State Fair, the best race he ever saw.
Lodaller started out, in emulation of
his dam, by winning seven blue ribbons
in three different states, defeating
many horses, and causing others to re-
main in the barn, that had never before
been defeated. AS race horse he won
four times in his class and was second
in free-for-all. Then runaway
crashed into him in his fifth race and
ended his winning. But for this he
would have taken record as good as
2:15 last fall. Some keen judges say
better.
If you want to breed trotters handsome
and fast, Lodaller is your horse. His
foals are all fine looking, good gated
trotters, no PAGERS, not even from
pacing mares.
Z His class as race horse is indicated
by his defeating in contested races,
over half mile tracks, such stations as
Sir Boreal, Allie Dale, Wisconsin Bill,
Henry o., and The Fox. The latter
horse twice.
Lodaller's fee is $4,000 to insure a |
mare with foal. Mares losing their
foals may be returned free of charge
or the money will be refunded, at my
option. Mondays and Tuesdays at |
