A Gentleman Still By HENRY WINTERS
TIME two Record girls were more
llooeal .u;Al, 4Ao noaXl IT,

TIME two Record girls were more
pleased with the social life
Of Rome than the archaeo-
logical curiosities, though the
younger, Edith, not only enjoyed the
~c"riosities. but seemed bent on seek
lhg them herself. Italy Is not a safe
country to go about in by oneself.
bnt Edith Record did a great deal Of
rambling. She was repeatedly warn
ed to cease hunting for relics of an
cient Rome in the environs, but would
not listen to the warnings.
One day, taking her brother Dick,
fourteen years old, with her. she got on
top Of one Of the double decker trolley
cars that run to and from different en-
virons Of Rome. and went to a place in
the Alban hills. There she and Dick
walked up a road till they zane. to a
plateau. They were hunting a spot
where recent archaeological discoveries
had been made. Not succeeding in
finding it, they looked for some II Of
whom to ask it's location. Seeing Il
man on horseback approaching. they
resolved to make inquiries of him.
When they met him they noticed that.
though dressed in a rather shabby vel
vetcen suit, his face indicated a man Of
breeding.
"Could you tell u.s." said Dick to the
stranger, "the location of the recent
archaeological find?"
81 think you will find it over there
a short distance from here-about five
minutes walk"
He spoke in a soft voice, which was
almost musical. keeping his eyes fixed
on Edith admiringly.
"Thank you," replied Dick, while
Edith nodded to the same effect.
%"Perhaps." added the stranger, Il
had better show you the way"
Despite their protests. he dismounted
and. leading his horse, walked with
them to a point lear the excavations.
There he stopped, took off his hat po-
litely and said:
"Follow this path for a few minutes
and you will reach the spot you seek"
you have been very kind" said
Dick. "When you are in Rome come
and see us. You will find us at No. -
on the COrSO."
"Docs the young lady join in the in
vitation?"
Edith inclined her head in a mute as
sent.
Having found the place they were
looking for and examined the interior
of a house Of ancient Rome. they re-
traced their steps to the trolley and
thence back to the city.
One evening during the following
winter, when social functions were in
order, the Records gave Il ball. 1t was
not a large affair. but very select.
Among the guests who were entering
Edith saw. clad in evening dress like
the other men, the stranger who had
conducted her and her brother to the
excavations. She was surprised to see

hhn avail himself of the invitation he
had received to be present at a formal
reception, but there seemed nothing
to do under the circumstances except
to welcome him. Moving forward to
where he was, she expressed herself
as pleased to see him and to pre-
sent him to others of her family. He
assented, and the introduction was CIV
en-, though Edith, not knowing his
name, was obliged to present him as
the gentleman who showed Dick and
me to the excavations"
The stranger remained but a very
short time, leaving before scarcely any
Of the guests had noticed him. He
told Edith that he had made some
archaeological investigations near the
place where she had met him and had
just opened some graves and exhumed
articles placed in them 600 years be-
fore the Christian era. If she and her
brother would meet him there he would
be happy to have her take some of
these archaeological treasures from the
graves where they We're found. In
deed he had called for the purpose, not
knowing of the function given that
evening.
To take things with her own hands
that had been in one spot for $500
years was a delightful anticipation to
Edith Record. On the day that she
had appointed with the stranger she
and her brother went to the place des-
igpated. The stranger met them with
a carriage and drove them to q retired
spot where We're some graves recently
opened. He opened some more neal
by and exposed a skeleton in each, sur
rounded by various trinkets, which he
invited Edith to take out with her
own hands. She did so and thanked
him for them.
/"And now" he said to Dick, putting
them into the carriage. "can you find
your way back?"
care you not going to return with
US" asked Edith, surprised.
1T would cost me my life to do So"

RACES IN AUSTRIA-HUNGARY.
Dual Monarchy Has a Serb Population
of 5,5OO,OOO.


Vienna. July 26.-According to the
most recent authoritative statistics the
racial question in 4Austria-Hungary is
much more complicated and diversified
than Is usually to be explained in ref
erence books.
In the kingdoms and provinces repre-
sented in the reichsrath in Vienna
there are nearly 100000 Germans
and 1S,5OO,OOO nOn-Germans. OF these
nearly 1850. 600 are Slavs. Among
these Slavs the Croats and Serbs num-
Der 10000. chiefly in Dalmatia, while
there are in all $4,000 Orthodox and
nearly 100000 Greek Uniats.
In Hungary, with its subject king
doms of Croatia and Slavonia. there
are 100000 Magyars. 100000 Ger.
mans and 100000 other non-Magyars.
OF these 100000 are Roumanians and
we'll over 100000 Slavs. The Croats,
or Roman Catholic Serbs. number
100000, and their Orthodox brothers
are 100000 in number. All told, Hun
gary has nearly 100000 Roman
Catholic subjects, 100000 Greek
Uniats and 100000 Orthodox. In this
connection it should be remembered
that the patriarchate of the Orthodox
Serb church has beer fixed at Kar-
lowitz, under Hungarian rule, for over
two centuries.
In Bosnia there are 434, 900 Roman
Catholic Croats. $4,000 Orthodox Serbs
and over 100000 BOsniaks. or Moslem
Serbs. Thus it will be seer that the
Emperor Francis Joseph rules over
more than %, 10000 Slavs and 1926
600 ROumanians. Of whom nearly
100000 adhere to various Orthodox
churches and 5.4OO.OOO are Uniats. OF
this Slav mass 100000 Poles. mostly
Roman Catholics. are not particularly
susceptible to pan-Slav propaganda. as
that is largely Russian and Orthodox.
Altogether the dual monarchy con-
tains 5.5OO.OOO inhabitants of Serb race,

SKIRTS WITHOUT TUNICs.
Popularity Of Long Coat Suits Respon.
sibIe For Their Revival.


Skirts of suits are of various tybes,
some showing long tunics, but the pop
ularity of the long coat suit is re-
sponsible for the big demand for skirts
without tunics, says the Dry Goods
Economist discussing fall styles.
These skirts, however, are usually
made with clusters of plaits or are
entirely plated or mounted on yokes.
A few are made with a deep circular
fiounce set i'll at about the knee point,
n a few extreme models which have
just been brought out have full circu-
lar skirts. but the latter are not en-
pected to meet with general favor as
yet as they are too extreme for the
average trade.

Conundrums.

Why is a coward in a regiment like
