DIsCONTENT.

Discomfort is the want Of self re-
lance; it is in6rmity Of will. Re-
gret calamities if you can thereby
help the sufferer; if not, attend your
own work and already the evil be-
gins to be repaired. Our sympa-
thy is just as base. We come to
them who weep foolishly and sit
down and cry for company instead
Of imparing to them truth dhealth
in rough electric shocks, putting
them once more in communication
with their own reason. The secret
Of fortune is Joy in our handk-
Emerson.

LESLEY ~DEARMER. -.
soft, bright eyes and long curled eye

Involuntarily he put out his hand,
but she seemed not to see the gesture,
and the hand dropped.
Il used the name. Thought it was
better, and it really is my name," he
went on, zone of my Names"

my sponsors in baptism
The newspapers accused you Of be-
ing your own sponsor"
1.-The newspapers accused me? What
do you mean?"
Surely you know. 1 told you I
should read about you, but I expected
to read very different things. How
ever. we won't talk of that now
But we must" For a moment he
was the old, masterful Loveland. "We
must. I want to know what you
mean"
'That can wait awhile. I came to
ask what you mean. Though 1 did
read the newspapers, I was surprised
to find you here. I am acting for my
friend Sidney Cremer. A cousin Of
Sidney's and NINE who lives a few
miles out Of Ashville, saw Lord Bob
advertised for performance and tele-
graphed. Sidney couldn't come, but
my aunt brought me tonight. as Sid
ney Cremer's interests and mine are
rather closely allied. And you know
nobody has a right to produce the
play without the authors permission"
Eyes, I know" answered Loveland
lejectedly. Cremer's interests and
hers were closely allied!" She had
blushed and even faltered a little as
she made the statement, and Val
sprang instantly to the conclusion that
she was engaged to marry Cremer.
And he stood convicted of defrauding
the man whom she intended to marry.
Was there any depth of wretchedness
or of humiliation which the thirteenth
Marquis Of Loveland had not plumbed
at last?
"You admit that you knew and yet

81 did, but he hesitated.
"But what? You see, I'm bound to
report to my friend"
"Your friend" broke out Loveland,
losing his head. "You are going to
marry him! You don't deny it."
She laughed gently. "Why should I
deny ito you? Have you any right
to question me or bring me to book
about anything, Mr.. Gordon?'
II know I have no right" he admit
ted. Forgive me-" To her he was
now only Gordon, the actor, who had
stolen Sidney Cremer's play. The past
was to be forgotten.
II must remind you again." Lesley
went on, in a cool, businesslike man
ner, though her eyes were starry,
that you mustn't go on using Sidney
Cremer's play"
1--WE have no intention Of doing So"
said Loveland. And then in as few
words as possible, without any attempt
at defending himself for his part in
the transaction, he explained badly
thai the manager had deserted the
company and that they had only one
piece. Lord Bob" They had produced
it for three nights in the hope Of
making money enough to get away,
but the result had proved disappoint-
ing.
my affairs are rather in a middle
just now" Loveland finished, ''but as
soon as ! get them straiRhtened out

again, which I expect to do shortly. l
will myself pay Mr.. Cremer's fees for
these performances if you'll let me
know what they are"
ooh, Sidney wouldn't want you to do
that" the girl explained. "I-neither
of us knew that the company was in
trouble. l can answer for Sidney as
if it were for myself. If only you give
me your word, Lord Lo-I mean MI.
G%ordon-that these people won't go
about the country playing this piece
I'll ask nothing more"
you may set Mr.. Cremer's mind at
rest about that" Loveland answered
bitterly. "They aren't likely to go
about the country playing any piece
"You mean they-you-are stranded
here?" inquired Lesley.
ooh, I'm all right" Loveland said
hurriedly, far from wishing to pose as
an object of pity. ITS the others Pm
thinking Of"
She gave him a quick, clear look.
would you go away and leave them
here in trouble?" she asked.
mo; I won't do that" replied Val.
II mean to do something for them"
won't there be money enough from
these three performances Of Lord
Bob to pay their railroad fares some
where?"
"Im afraid not, hardly enough to
settle with the landlord and get him
to release their luggage, which he's
keeping till last weeks board bills are
paid"
"Your luggage too?"
Loveland grew red. 81 haven't any"
"Oh!" The color flew to her cheeks,
as if in sympathy with the flush she
could not help seeing on his. "No
trunks?"
"You say you read the newspapers"
said Ioveland. eff you did you per-
haps saw that the hotel people in New
York treated me rather curiously. 1
didn't read the stuff myself. 1 really
couldn't bring myself to do it. But I
gathered from hints given me here and
there that the journalists had a pretty
rough game with me-"
"You had a game with them, to be-
gin WITH" said Lesley.
II shut my door in the face of one
on my first day in New York." Love
land admitted. "Next day I hadn't a
door to shut. America hasn't been very
hospitable to me-"
"What could you expect? Americans
don't like having tricks played on
them"
II played no trick"
"You played a part-the part of Lord
Loveland."
Val stared. "How can a man play
that he's himself?'
"Do you deny the newspaper accu-
sations then?"
"What accusations? 1 did knock a
man down in the street, and he gave
his OWL version Of the story"
ooh, I don't mean that story, but
quite another, the story he said you
knocked him down for abiding to-
when
Were talking at cross purposes
broke in Loveland, bewildered. "For
the sake Of any friendship you may
ever have had for me, though I'm not
asking you to continue it in future,
explain what you mean"
But do you mean that you read
nothing, heard nothing of what they
were saying about you in New York;
II told you I wouldn't look at the
papers. What 1 heard I Of course
took for granted was in connection
with the hotel affair and the row in

SOME CRUDE STE
Loveland felt that it would have
been almost easier to shoot himself
than to give the signal for the curtain
tosring up, yet the moment came when
he could delay no longer. He was not
actor enough to forget in his acting
the world beyond the stage. He did
not lose his lines; but, conscious Of
Lesley's eyes upon him. he felt as stiff
and as jerky in every movement as a
mechanical doll. The curtain went
down on the third act, and Loveland
was making a 'bolt' for his dressing
room when M Of the stage hands in
tercepted him, holding out an envelope.
ITO the Manager Of the Company
Producing Lord Bob" was the adj
dress penciled in an attractive hand
writing. which might be that of q man
or a woman.
On a sheet of the Ashville theater
paper were written the words. "A
friend and agent of Sidney Cremer will
be obliged by a few words with the
manager Of the company In the private
room Of the manager Of the opera
house kindly lent for the OCCASION"
Loveland read the communication
and handed it to Ed Binney, who was
passing. Ed gave a long, low whistle,
which set him coughing again and
said: "Whew! This is the last straw,
isn't it? Some ones put the author on
to us. You know we're -pirates-regu-
lar play snatchers-don't you? There's
q big fine for the offense."
Loveland laughed. 81 wish Mr..
Cremer joy Of it."
