"As happy as you though you would

why, you haven't any 5ight'-
Yes. I think I have. You put me

And then he kept carefully away
from personalities as he told Of his
ranch in Colorado and some mining
interests that had proved most profit
able.
There was about him the uncon-

And Helen felt a vague sense Of
peace and restfulness in his presence.
Her life had so long been made up OF
a strained nervous attempt to keep
Warren in a good humOr and TO avoid
his displeasure, that to lean back now
and be entertained. TO feel that she
was not in an atmosphere of irritable
ity and criticism but of approval and
admiration. was for her a new and en-
jOyable sensation.
Without analyzing all this. she> only
knew that the moment was a very
pleasant one. 1t was not until she
noticed the, big clock at the end of he
room that she realized how long they
had been there.
'Oh. I must go-I had no idea it
was so late" as she began TO draw en-
her gloves.
Outside he motioned for a taxicab
and they were whirled up the avenue
Helen leaned back keenly conscious OF
the man beside her, and of his con-
seriousness Of her.
The Invitation to Dinner.
When they reached her apartment
as he held her hand.
There was ali awkward moment, and
then she said nervously.
"Oh. you must come to dinner with

so like for you to meet Mr.. Curtis"
Thank you. I should be glad to

the last few years. he insisted that

'EWhy shouldn't She!'
After a moments hesitation, Helen
consented. Why shouldn't she have

AS he gave hts coat, hat and stick

Helen was filled with rush of men,

brmed with bullets made of lead.
GoId-laced generals at their head:
POntoon bridges, canvas tents,
Cannons, warlike implements:
War excitement running high.
Everybody wondering why.
Can't you guess? It's plain to Us
Why this wild, belligerent fuss.
Guarding peace in Mexico?
'Fraid of greaserS2 No. no, no!
Just manuvers? Hardly that,
Keep it underneath your hat,
Here's the reason, true and plain:
Teddy's on the whoop againl
Teddy's running through the south,
Shooting off his we1l-fil1ed mouth,
Making speeches, shaking hands,
Welcomed here and there by bands.
Grabbing crowds where'er he wends
Gaining followers II not friends.
Stealing thunder every day.
Weaving thrOngs from Taft away,
Trying hard all foes to shelye
Who might count in 1912
Yes 10 face the matter plain,
Teddy's on the jump again.
Hence the army on the border,
With pretense Of keeping order.
It's not there in fear OF war;
This iS what they sent it for:
Merely as a rival show,
With its tinsel, shine and glow;
Merely, with its rush and action.
As an anti-Ted attraction,
So that when he comes that way
With his one-rinG show some day.
Folks wont notice him at all.
But will think his show is small,
That's the reason for the forces.
Cannons. generals. men and horses.

OF the escape, about the same time
