CHAPTER XIII.
Throuqh a Tunnel.

Mrs. Jimmie Wellington, who had
travelled much abroad and learned In
England the habit Of smoking In the
corridors Of expensive hotels, had ac-
quired also the habit, as travellers do,
Of calling England freer than Amer
lea. She determined to do her share
toward the education of her native
country, and chose, for her topic, to-
bacco as feminine accomplishments:
She had grown Indifferent to stares
and audible comment and she could
fight protesting head waiter to a
standstill. If monuments and tablets
are ever erected to the first woman
who smoked publicly In this place or
that, Mrs. Jimmie Wellington will be
variously remembered and occupy q
large place In historical record
The narrow confines of the women's
room on the sleeping car soon palled
on her, and she objected to smoking
there except when she felt the added
luxury of keeping some other woman
outside-fuming, but not smoking
a claim on the observation platform.
She sat there, putting like major
general, and in one portion of Ne
braska two farmers fell off their agri-
cultural vehicles at the sight Of her
cigar-smoke trailing after the train.
In Wyoming three cowboys followed
her for a mile, yipping and bowling
their compliments.
Feeling the smoke mood coming on,
Mrs. Wellington invited Mrs. Temple
to smoke with her, but Mrs. Temple
felt a reminiscent qualm at the very
thought, SO Mrs. Jimmie sauntered
out alone, t the great surprise OF
Ira Lathrop, whose motto was, 1.-TWO
heads are better than one" and who
was apparently willing to wait till
Anne Gattle's head grew on his
shoulder.
81 trust l don't intrude," Mrs. Well
ington said.
"Oh, no. Oh, yes" Anne gasped in
fiery confusion as she fled into the
car, followed by the purplefaced Ira,
who slammed the door with a growl:
That Wellington woman would break
up anything"
The prim little missionary toppled
into the nearest chair: "Oh, Ira, what
will she Think"
"She can't think" Ira grumbled.
"In little while she'll know"
Don't you think we'd better tell
everybody before they begin to talk"
Ira glowed with pride at the
thought and murmured with all the
ardor of senile Romeo: Il suppose
so, ducky darling. I'll break it
mean I'll tell 1t to the men, and you
tell the women"

Mallory was dragging out miser.
able existence with a companion who
was neither maid, wife, nor widow
and to whom he was neither bachelor,
husband, nor relict.
They were suffering brain-fag from
their one topic Of conversation, and
heart-fag from rapture deferred. Mar.
jorie had pretended to take a nap
and Mallory had pretended that he
would leave her for her own sake.
Their contradictory chains were be-
ginning to gall.

minded Ashton of a story. Ashton was
one Of the great That-Reminds-Me
family. Perhaps 1t was to the credit
Of the Englishman that he missed the
point Of this story, even though Jim.
nile Wellington saw 1t through his fog,
and Dr. Temple turned red and buried
his eyes in the eminently respectable
pages of the Scientific American.
Ashton and Wellington and Fosdick
exchanged winks over the Britisher's
stare Of incomprehension, and Ashton
explained 1t to him again in words Of
one syllable, with signboards at all
the different spots.
Finally gleam Of understanding
broke over Wedgewood's face and he
tried to justify his delay.
"Oh, yes, of cawse see 1t now. Yes,

her: II will go back, but allow me to

Mrs. Wellington shrugged her shoul-

ANCIENT STONE SUN DIAL
II Was Built Into a Church Buttress,
Probably in the Thirteenth
Century.

The stone sun dial, probably of the
thirteenth century, which has just been
placed in the south wall of the chancel
of West Clandon church, is likely to
be of considerable interest to anti
quaries. The dial, which has unfor.
tunately last its gnomon, was till re-.
Gently built into the western side Of
a buttress, having apparently been re.
garded as a piece of stone of no value.
The stone on which the dial is Cac
is Of chalk and the dial is about foo;
across. The engraving Of the lines
on the face is deep and sharp. til
stone being in a good state Of preser
walton, and the hole in which the
gnCUOn had been fixed is wide ami
deep. At each Of those positions on
the face of the dial which in a clock
would be called the quarters four dots
are engraved, but these dots are ar
ranged in different positions. Sun dials
such as that at West Clandon are
not at all rare and at one time they
were probably placed on every church.
Indeed, at Saltwood, in Kent, there
are three close together, but particu.
lar interest attaches to the specimen
at West Clandon from the fact that it
is much nearer perfect than is gener-
ally the case.-The Guardian.
