Richard was in ecstasy.

didn't put your finger against the pendu-
lum of that clock?"
"Oh, no" she replied, with emphasis.

She agreed that the lark was ideal.
They walked down the road till a car
should overtake them.

positively. It'll be a bit of a startler
for the old girl"
No doubt you've heard" said Eva
haltingly, that Mr.. Loggerheads has
cast eyes on Mary"
"And do you think there's anything
in that?" Richard questioned sharply.
Well" she said, Il really don't
know" Meaning that she decidedly
thought that Mary had been encourag-
ing advances from Mr.. Loggerhesds.
Well" said Richard superiority, you
may just take it from me that there's
nothing in it at ALTAR he laughed,
shortly. He knew Mary.
Then they got on a car and tried to
behave as if their being together was
The Washington herald., 1914-07-26

And, of course, Eva thought, Mary will
never, never suggest it.
But Eva was wrong there.
To the amazement of both Richard
and Eva, Mary calmly said:
We'll, Dick, the least you can do now
is to see Miss Harracles home. You'll
easily be able to catch the last car back
from Turnhill if you start at once. l
dare say shall go to bed"

of Trafalgar road and Beech street
The cars stopped at that corner in their
wild course toward the town and to-
ward Turnhill. A car was just coming
But instead of waiting for it, Richard
Morfe and Eva Harracles deliberately
turned their backs on Trafalgar road
and hurried side by side down Beech
street. Beech street is a short street,
and ends in a nondescript unlighted
waste patch of ground.
They arrived in the gloom of this
patch, safe from all human inquisitive-
ness, and then Richard Morfe warmly
kissed Eva Harracles in the mathemati-
cal center of those lips of hers. And
Eva Harracles showed no resentment of
any kind, nor even shame. Yet she had
been very carefully brought up. The
sight would have interested Bursley i'm
mensely; it would have appealed
strongly to Bursley's strong sense of the
piquant-that dry old stick Dick Morfe

ness afforded by unlighted Beech street |
Then you hadn't told herl" murmur-
ed Eva Harracles.
MOI, said Richard, with slight hes
itation.

learn that her lover had exhibited even
a little cowardice in informing his FAM

reputation for itself He wound it up
on the last day of every month, for ii
was a thirty-odd day clock. especially
made by famous local expert; and he
had not known it to vary more than ten
minutes month at the most And 10
it had stopped in the very middle OF the
month!
Did you wind it up last time?" asked
Mary.
"Of course!" he snapped.
He had taken out his watch and was
gazing at it. He turned to Eva.
Its twenty to ten" he said. You've
missed your connection at Turnhill-
that's a certainty. I'm very sorry"
Obviously there was only one course
open to a gallant man whose clock was
to blame; namely, to accompany Eva
Harracles to Turnhill by car, to accom-
pany her on foot to SiIverhays, then. to
walk back to Turnhill and come home
again by car. That was the clear course.
But he dared scarcely suggest it. He
dared scarcely suggest it because of his
sister. He was afraid of Mary. The
names of Richard Morfe and Eva Har-
racles had already been coupled in the
mouth of gossip. And naturally Eva
Harracles herself could not suggest that
Richard should sally out and leave his
sister alone on this night, especially de-
voted to sisterliness and brotherliness.
The Washington herald., 1914-07-26

But Eva did not poit. She compre-
hended the situation, and the psychology
of the relations between brothers and
sisters.
Il shall tell her tomorrow morning at
breakfast" said Richard firmly. "Un-
less, after all, she isn't gone to bed

By common impulse they now re-
turned toward Trafalgar road.

FUNKHoUSER'S MEN PULLING A
NEW ONE ON GIRLS
Funkhouser's men are changing
places with the women who solicit on
the streets and are reversing the old
order, if testimony given by Sarah
Brown before the Morals Court is to
be believed.
According to Miss Brown these
sleuths no longer wait for the women
to solicit men, but are now accosting
the prostitutes themselves. When
they have drawn the girls into con-
versation and an agreement is reach
ed they arrest the women.
Sarah Brown is an old offender
who lives at 25 N. Morgan st. She
was brought up before Judge Good
now by a vice investigator called
lizzie" Bokowski, who told the old
story of soliciting.
The judge said that as Sarah had
been in court once a week for the
last month he intended to hit her
hard this time if he could.
The girl told another story. How
she was walking along the street by
her home and two men in the pas
sageway leading to her house had
spoken to her.
Are you going in?" they said, &C

She said that she was going in.
