Perhaps Mr.. Gilmore had better
tell the story, said the secretary al
most fiercely.
NO. said Dorothy as she stood up,
suddenly calm. NO, I'll tell It. 1t was
my fault"
Then she told it all-and as she
talked the secretay's face gradu-
ally softened, and after awhile
thor was a faint glimmer OF amuso-
ment in his eyes
Il perfectly understand your mo
tive. Mr.. Gilmore he said at the
end. If | can do nothing in this
matter you will be court-martlaled,
of course. Would you, in that case,
adhere to the misstatement of fact

the emphatic response.

there seemed to be something in
his throat. but the hand-pressure was
sincere.
Then, its all right" Dorothy
asked breathlessly.
Il think it may be arranged, said
the secretary.
Then he scolded his pretty niece
ever so gently until she ended it all
with asmacking kiss on his lips.
Finhaly he sent some telegram,
dreadfully long, and in that mystic
rious way known only to men in high
positions, dispose1 OF the matter.
Now that's all" said the secre-
tary I'm busy Both of you go
now"
But It wasn't all at all. Dorothy
looked at the cadet and the cadet
looked at Dorothy,

blushed
Please, sir," said the cadet, Il
should like to ask you If we are
married.

"What?" and again: What"
Yes, uncle, said Dorothy, there
was a ceremony you know, but we
lon't know if 1t took"
Seems to me you should be the
best Judge of whether or not You
are married" said the secretary.
What is all this, anyway
Together they told him of the
happenings in the little parlor of
the Iilliard He listened attentively.
Did either of you refuse to marry
the other?" he asked
NO, sir" said Gilmore.
NO. sir echoed Dorothy.
Did he pronounce you man and

away. Solenlnly they discussed the

he suggested. This suspense is aw-

Pm sorry YOU find it So" said
Dorothy icily.
Really, there's no need of going
into details. If you had seen Dorothy
and the cadet a few minutes later
you would have seen her looking at
him with amazing love in her eyes,
and mis- arm about her.
CHAPTER vi
The secretary Of war and wife en-
tertained two guests at dinner that
evening, these being Dorothy and
Cadet Gilmore. Suddenly, in the nil

If Ell PaSoans thought they had a
time New Years eve, they were mis-
taken; they were not even on the ragged
edges Of a good time. as good times go
in New York, the center of all good
times. In that city of the great white
methods by day, they have times that
are real times whenever the old year
begins to die and the first faint dawn
of the new one becomes apparent. There
they pay $40 person merely for the
privilege of sitting at a table and buy
ing food and drink, and they time their
church bells so a man can take u
drinks between the first tap at mid
night and tie last tap when the New
Year is supposed to have arriyed-to
give an opportunity to the man who
has sworn off for the old year and in
tends TO swear off again for the new
one. Also, some men walk on their
hands on the sidewalk and think they
are things they are not-just because
they are hilarious

So far as Broadway was concerned
last night differed from election night

more than the usual crowds. But you
couldn't help noticing late at night the
crowds of girls in salmon opera cloaks
