with an utterly dissatisfied express
sion. In the fullness of his heart, the
elder man wrote long letter OF kind
ness to the supposed daughter of his
old friend. He signed it with a -four
ish, Barry Dillon" And the effusive
signature, big and black, was very diff
ferent from the precise script with
which the younger Barry Dillon signed
his letters.
The elder Dillon was in great
spirits.
Barry, my boy" he said, you've
given me hope tonight, though it's
not much. Come, we'll drink to the
health of that unknown lady you saw
in church,"
Dillon laughed and blushed
A few days after this a man who
served as general domestic utility to
his father and himself brought in his
letters in the morning. They were,
except one, all addressed to "Mr.
Barry Dillon, Jr.' He opened them
all without looking at the signatures.
One he discovered, after he had read
the few lines, that made it up, was for
his father. 1t was a short note, dated
the day before, under an address very
plainly written. 1t was from MORA
Livingston, who, signing it, put Miss"
in parenthesis. 1t simply said that
the writer thanked her fathers old
friend, and added that this old friend
might help her, as she was in urgent
need.
Dillon's lip curled.
| "She wants money, of course he
thought, looking scornfully at the
pointed writing on the thin blue pa
per. He was about to touch the cleo
trio button to send the note to his
fathers room. dad will be an easy
prey-his fathers daughter will make
him pay for his friendship in the old
days. An actress!" He pushed the
note under the blotter of his desk He
would keep it until he saw fit to give
it to his father, who was so foolishly
soft-headed. Nevertheless, he did
/ touch the button, and when the man
appeared, he asked him to get two
tickets for Amy Robsart," the play
in which the designing young lady
was appearing. Turning over his pa
per lazily, his eyes caught paragraph
announcing the funeral of DR.. Living
ston, aged sixty-five.
"She will not play tonight" he
thought He compared the address
given in the funeral notice with that
in the note. 1t was the same. We'll
go, at any rate" he said. II hope that
dad did not see the death notice and
hunt up the designing young lady
; If DR.. Livingston hadn't enough inter
est in my father to look him up il
; all these years, the approachment
would be useless now"

would be useless now.
The theatre was crowded. The play,
very dramatic one on an old theme,
had so far succeeded, mainly because
Mora Livingston's acting and per-
sonality carried it. Dillon was as
founded when she appeared.
What" he said, "she on the stage,
and her father gone scarcely a day?"
And then, to his horror, he saw that
she was the lady of the church and
his dreams His father grabbed his
arm hard.
"Ah, Barry, it's Mora Livingston,
my friends wife and my benefactress,
to the very life! I wonder why she
hasn't answered my motel"
Dillon did not answer. How beau
tiful, how gentle, how appealing she
was! His heart beat fast His ia
Their had left him, but Dillon thought
only of the beautiful creature who
crossed his vision like a star, lily,
yet how cold and calloused she must
be.
She had acted the night before, she
was acting tonight, and her father
was scarcely cold in his grave! Still
her beauty and gentleness drew him
toward her. The curtain fell.
"She must have a bad heart he
said, turning to his father. He no.
ticed for the first time that the seat
was empty. The wait was long one.
There was much hustle behind the
scenes, and some dull thuds heard,
the building of Kenilworth Castle in
ten minutes was evidently a difficult
| undertaking. At last the curtain rose
on the beginning of Licester's splen-
did pageant for Queen Elizabeth.
MORA Livingston was not in the
scene. The elder Dillon came back
to his seat His son furtively watch
ed his fathers FACET was pale,
| drawn, perturbed. The second act
ended with a tremendous scene be-
tween the queen and Amy Robsart,
as set down in history, but neverthe-
less most effective. MORA Living
ston was called for again and again,
but she did not appear.
The father and son went out into
the lobby.
"Well?" Dillon asked, not conceal
ing his anxiety.
Il saw her for moment Her
manager knows me and she gave per-
mission. She was very cool, and then
she began to sob. You're too late

and | could have repaid you in timer
She bewildered me- Go. co.. she
said. He needs no friends such as
you-go;' The elder Dillon wiped
/ his forehead.
She will not see me again-and
yet she did not answer my note. Heav-

AGED BOOKS GIVEN
TO LOCAL COLLEGE
Valuable Literary Donations
Received from J. E. Tiff
by Earlham.

Citizens OF Richmond are doubtless
familiar with the fact that at several
times in recent years Mr.. j. T.. lin
has given to the Anglican club OF
EarIham college sets of books OF
distinctly literary value. A few days
ago Mr.. Iliff continued this policy by
Offering the club a number Of very
old prints OF standard works, some of
which have been in existence for
nearly three hundred years, and are
believed to be the oldest copies in the
state of Indiana. The collection in
Cludes six volumes of Noltaircs nj
versal History. published in London
in 1861, and also the works Of Laur-
ence Sterne, consisting of eight vol
umes and published in London in 1899.
These sets are in remarkably good
condition, and can easily be recognize
ed as Il very valuable addition TO any
library. Among the miscellaneous
books In the collection is a volume
entitled "Practical Wisdom" which
was published in London in 1924, and
contains contributions from Sir Wal
ter Raleigh, Sir Mathew Hale. Earl
of Bedford, William Penn, Benjamin
Franklin and others. a three volume
sketch of the life of Lorenzo de Me
dici, published in London in 1906, will
add to the biographical department.
Two individual volumes printed in the
middle of the seventeenth century are
of particular interest. One of these
IL a quaint old print Of sermon
preached by DR.. Jeremy Taylor on
the life and works of the Lord Arch
bishop of Armagh. at the time of his
death. II was edited and printed for
John Crooks AT the Sign of the Ship
in st. Paul's Churchyard. 1863" The
book is still intact, but its pages must
be handled with care. The other is
an edition in large type of the works
OF Abraham Cowley. taken from the
authors original copies and printed in
London in 1868. II would seem that
these volumes are a moderate fulfil
ment of Friswell's statement that
"Therc Is nothing so imperishable as
book" The president of the club
stated today that the books had been
accepted and would be placed in the
Anglican department of the general
college library where they may be
seen at any time. He also stated that
this addition to the general library
was valuable one and would be APP
preciated not only by the club, but by
the college as a whole.

LITTLE EXERCISE
INJURIES HORSES

AS result of not enough exercise
and too much feed, many horses in
the county have died from paralysis
this spring, according to veterinari-
ans. The disease is not an uncom-
mon one, and one difficult to treat sue
cessfully. if allowed to run too long.
Most often the first evidence of the
ailment comes while working the
horse after long rest and confine-
ment in a stall, If the horse is al
lowed to rest when the first symptoms
are noticed, it is probable that the at
tack will quickly pass, but if driven
hard when experiencing an attack, it
is more than likely the animal will
drop over dead.
