again that tGat is no more convinc-

Kitty's smile showed her quick
appreciation of this point, and Rob
went on.

And then Rob Fessenden went
away. Mrs. Markham asked him to
remain to dinner. but he declined
preferring to go home with Carleton
He said he would return next morn
ing. and said too that he meant
to stay in Mapleton as long as h
could be of any service to any OF
his friends.
This decision was. of course. the
suit of his great friendship for Carle

CHAPTER XIV.
The Carleton Household.

Mrs. Carletons dinner table that
evening presented very different
atmosphere from the night before.
The hostess herself was present
only by strong effort of will power.
Mrs. Carleton had been greatly over
come by the shock of the dreadful
news, and aside from the sadness
exceedingly disappointed at what
seemed to her the ruin of her son 5
future.
The Cartoons were an old and
aristocratic family. though by no
means possessed of great fortune.
The alliance, therefore, with the
wealth of the Van Norman estate,
and the power OF the Van Norman
name, seemed to Mrs. Carleton the
crowning glory of her sons career,
and she had been devoutly thankful
when the wedding day was set.
Though stubbornly unwilling u
believe il. she had of late been fore
ed to notice the growing attachment
between Schuyler and her compan
ion. Miss Burt, and had it not been
fer the surety of the approaching
wedding, she would have dismissed
the girl. But so certain was she that

Fessende Detective Work.

Next morning Rob went over to
the Van Norman house with clear
ly developed plan of action. He de-
clared to himself that he would al
low no circumstances to shake his
faith in his friend. that he would
hold Carleton innocent OF all wrong
doing in the affair. and that he
would put all his ingenuity and
cleyerness to work to discover the
criminal or any clue that might lead
to such n discovery.
Although some questions he had
wished to ask Cicely Dupuy We're yet
unanswered. Fessenden had discov-
cred several important facts, and.

he looked about him for quiet

in black and white. The florists
men were still in the drawin groom
so he went into the library. Here
he found only Mrs. Markham and
Miss Morton, who were apparently
discussing question on which they
held opposing opinions.

he would save Schuyler from her
fascinatilns at the risk of breaking
their own lifelong friendship.
After further rapt and earnest con-
yersation. Carleton took Miss Burt
gently in his arms and kissed her
lightly On the forehead. Then draw
ing her arm through his own. they
turned and walked slowly to the
house.
4 few moments later Rob heard
the girls light footsteps as she came
up to her room, but Carleton stayed

Ny CHEER PHILOSOPHY


MY CHEER-CP PHILOSOPHY
The other fellows trouble isn't very
hard to bear,
] can wave my hand just this way,
aud it fades into the air.
| can tell the other fellow
In a voice that's rich and mellow,
That his burden is light one. If
he'll wear a cheerful face;
I can brush aside his trouble
Just as though Il were bubble.
Hut when have business worries.
it's very different case.
The other fellows heart ache isn't
hard to drive away,
can smile to hear him tell It and
bid him to be gay.
can slap him ON the back,
And point out the proper track
Whereon he may tread to glory and
put all his woes to chase,
But when have things that fret me,
It's a very different case.
It's an altogether. yes. an altogether
different case.
My philosophy is splendid for the
other fellows woes,
II never sees the thorns that mar
the other fellows rose,
II was never made to languish
With the other fellows anguish
Or to note the solemn sad things
that the other fellows see.
But wnen ! have doubts and fears,
= mellow then ii disappears,
My philosophy refuses to do half
as much for me.
II is great for other fellows, but
T. doesn't work iUr me.
