CHAPTER ~.
A Valiant Of VIRGINIA.

A Valiant Of Virginia.
For q long time John Valiant sat
motionless. the opened letter In his
hand, staring at nothing. He had the
sensation. spiritually. of a traveller
awakened with q rude shock amid
wholly unfamiliar surroundings.
He was trying to remember-to put
two and two together. His father had
been Southern-born; yes, he had
known that. But he had known moth
ing whatever of his fathers early days,
or of his forebears; since he had been
old enough to wonder about such
things, he had had no one to ask
questions OF.
Phrases of the letter ran through
his mind: Sometime. perhaps. you
will know why you are John Valiant
of New York instead Of John Valiant
of Damory Court cannot
tell you myself" There was some
tragedy, then. that had blighted the
place, some melancholy story" as the
clipping put 1t.
He bent over the deed spread out
upon the table, following with his nm
ger the long line of transfers: ITO
John valyante,.'" he muttered: what
odd spelling! Robert Valyant'-with-
out the e.. Here, in 1880, the y be-
gins to be r." There was something
strenuous and appealing in the long
line Of dates. valiant. Always Va
liant. How they held on to it! There's
never . break"
A curious pride, newborn and self
conscious. was dawning in him. He
was descended from ancestors who
had been NO weaklings. A Valiant had
settled on those acres under a royal
governor, before the old frontier
hghting was over and the Indians
had sullenly retired to the westward.
The sons Of those who had braved
sea and savages had bowed their
strong bodies and their stronger hearts
to raze the forests and turn the
primeval jungles into golden planta-
tons.
There stole into his mood an eery
suggestion Of intention. Why should
the date assigned for that deeds de-
livery have been the very day ON
which he had elected poverty Here
was q generalization ~ pointed ~ the

For answer the bulldog. cooking an
alert eye on his master, discontinued
his occupation-a conscientious II un-
successful mastication Of the fattish
packet that had fallen from the folded
deed-and with much solicitous tall
wagging, brought the sodden thing in
his mouth and put 1t into the out
stretched hand.
His master unrolled the pulpy wad
and extricated the object 1t had en-
closed-an old-fashioned iron door-key.
After a time Valiant thrust the key
into his pocket, and rising. went to a
trunk that lay against the wall.
Searching in . portfolio, he took out
a small old-fashioned photograph.
much battered and soiled It had been
cut from a larger group and the name
of the photographer had been erased
from the back. He set 1t upright on
the desk, and beading forward. looked
long at the face It disclosed. 1t was
the only picture he had ever possessed
of his father.
He turned and looked into the glass
above the dresser. The features were
the same. eyes. brow, lips. and strong
waving hair. But for its time-stains
the photograph might have been one
of himself, takea yesterday.

Seek Illinois indictments
for Illegal Traffic in
Impure Eggs Used for Food

WASHINGTON. Nov. lS.-Federal
State and local officials have begun
campaign in Illinois, the depart
menf of agriculture announced today
to stop what he declared was Illegal
traffic in impure eggs From evi-
dence gathered, the department.
stated there seems TO be a definite
market in Chicago for 'rots and spots.
at 81 a case Of thirty dozen. In con-
sequence 'rots and spots from all
over the surrounding country have
been coming into Chicago in large
numbers.
Although there is a certain demand
for inedible eggs for technical pur-
poses, such as tanning leather, most
of the 'rots and spots that reach
Chicago are first broken and frozen
and then sold to bakers for use in
cakes and other forms of food In
one instance at least a shipment Of
these eggs was traced to a firm which
admitted it had no use for them ex-
cept In food.
Another important result OF the
work in Chicago, it is hoped. viii be
to persuade other cities and States
of the necessity Of assisting the Fed
eral government in destroying the
traffic in tad eggs. That this can be
done has already been demonstrated
in Trenton. y. J.. where eleven In
dictments have been found on the
charge of conspiracy in connection
with this business"
