CHAPTER XVII.
VaIor in Retrospect.


In the month of May, when the
chestnuts bloom in the green dells,
where the delicate young foliage
holds the light as in golden cups, a
young man walked through one of the
small allees of the Bots at the fash
donable noon hour, a little reddish dog
trotting at his heels. The young man
walked with an imperceptible limp.
He was thin, as men are who have
lived hard and who have overcome
tremendous obstacles. He was tanned
as men are Drowned who have come
from eastern and extreme southern
countries.
The little dog had also an imper-
ceptible limp occasioned by bicycle
running over him when he was a
puppy.
The two companions seemed i'm
mensely to enjoy the spring day. Sab.
ron every now and then stood for a
few moments looking at the gay
passers-by pedestrians and euues-
TRANS, enjoying to the full the repose
of civilization, the beauty of his own
land.
Pitchoune looked with indifference
upon the many dogs He did not stir
from his masters side. When Sabron
was quiet, the little animal stood at
attention; he was a soldiers dog. He
could have told dog stories to those
insignificant worldly dogs - could
have told of really thrilling adven.
cures. His brown eyes were pathetic
with their appeal of affection as thew
looked up at his beloved master. He
had a fund of experience such as the
goodies and the terriers led by their
owners could not understand. There.
fore Pitchoune was Indifferent to them.
Not one of those petted, ridiculous
house dogs could have run for miles
In the dark across an African desert
could have found Benz Medinet and
fetched relief to his master. Pitchoune
was proud of it. He was very well
satisfied with his career. lie was
still young other deeds of valor per.
haps lay before him-who can tellI
AT any rate he had been shown about
at the ministry Of war. been very
much admired, and he was proud
animal.
When Sabron spoke to him he leaped
upon him and wagged his tail. After
q few moments as the two stood near
the exit OF an alice leading 10 one
OF the grand avenues, Pitchoune slowly
went In front OF his master and
toward two ladies sitting on a bench

Happiness.

Happiness.
LIE Comte de Sabron finished his
dressing.
Brunei surveyed his master from
the tip of his shining boots to his
sleek, fair head. His expressive eyes
said: Monsieur lie Capitaine is looking
we'll tonight"
Brunei had never before given his
master direct compliment. His eyes
only had the habit of expressing ad-
miration, and the manner in which
he performed his duties, his devotion,
were his forms of compliment. But
Sabron's long illness and absence, the
fact that he had been snatched from
death and given back to the army
again, leveled between servant and
master the impossible wall of ETH
quette.
There will be a grand dinner to-
night, will there not, Monsieur lie
Capitaine? Doubtless Monsieur le
Colonel and all the gentlemen will be
there" Brunei made a comprehen-
sive gesture as though he comprised
the entire etat major.
Sabron, indeed, looked well. He
was thin, deeply bronzed by the ex-
posture on the yacht, for ne and Ire
mont before returning to France had
made long cruise. Sabron wore the
look of a man who has come back
from far country and is content.
"And never shall forget to the end
of my days how Monsieur lie Capitaine
looked when met the yacht at Mar
seilles!"
Brunei spoke reverently, as though
he were chronicling sacred souvenirs.
Il said to myself, you are about to
welcome back a hero. Brunei! Mon
sieur lie Capitaine win be as weak as
child. But was determined that
Monsieur lie Capitsine should not read
my feelings, however great my emo
ton"
Sabron smiled. At no time in his
simple life did Brunei ever conceal
the most trifiing emotion-his simple
face revealed all his simple thoughts.
Sabron said heartily: your control
was very fine, indeed"
Instead OF seeing sick man, Mon
sieur lie Capitaine, splendid-looking
figure, with red cheeks and bright

light. Pitchoune, moved from his
usual Indifference, gave a short bark,
walked up to the ladies', and began
to snuff about their feet. The younger
lady exclaimed, and then Sabron, lift
ing his hat, came forward, the crimson
color beating in his dark tanned
cheeks.
The Marquise d'Esclignac held out
both hands to the officer:
IT'S nearly noon," she said, land
you don't forget that you have prom
Used to lunch with us, do you, Mon
sieur lie Capitaine?"
Sabron, bending over her hand, as
sured her that he had not forgotten.
Then his eyes travelled to her COM
panion. Miss Redmond wore a very
simple dress, as was her fashion, but
the young officer from Africa, who had
not seen her near by until now and
who had only caught a glimpse of her
across the opera house, thought that
he had never seen such a beautiful
dress in all his life. 1t was made of
soft gray cloth and fitted her closely,
and in the lapel of her mannish little
buttonhole she wore few Parma vio-
let's. He recognized them. They had
come from a bunch that he had sent
her the night before. He kissed her
hand, and they stood talking together,
the three of them, for few moments,
Pitchoune stationing himself as a SEN
tinel by Miss Redmond's side.
The Marquise d'Esclignac rose. The
young girl rose as we'll, and they
walked on together.
Mes enfants," said the Marquise
d'Esclignac, don't go with your usual
rush, Julia. Remember that Monsieur
de Sabron is not as strong as Her
cules yet. l will follow you with
Pitchoune."
But she spoke without knowledge of
the dog. Now feeling that some IN
wonted happiness had suddenly burst
upon the horizon that he knew, Pit
choune seemed suddenly seized with a
rollicking spirit such as had been his
characteristic some years ago. He
tore like mad down the path in front
of Sabron and Miss Redmond. He
whirled around like a dervish, he
dashed across the road in front of
automobiles, dashed back again,
springing upon his master and whin-
ing at the girls feet.
"See," said SAFFRON. 'how happy he
is"
Il should think he would be happy.
He must have a knowledge of what
an important animal he is. Just
think! If he were a man they would
give him a decoration"
And the two walked TRANQUILITY side
by side.
Pitchoune ran to the side of the
road, disappeared into a little forest
all shot through with light. He came
back, bringing the remains of an old
rubber ball lost there by some other
dog, and laid it triumphantly in front
| of Miss Redmond.
"See," said Sabron, che brings you
his trophies"

PLAY NEVER REAL triumph"
Sheridan Knowles Widely Known
Drama Of "Vlrplnlus" Is open
TO Criticism.

James Sheridan Knowles, an Irish
schoolmaster, who had also been an
actor, whose father was first cousin
to Richard Brinsley Sheridan, brought
to Macready a tragedy called "Vir~
ginius," widely proclaimed as a re-
turn to truth and to nature as against
artiflcialities of the times.
"Virginius" is an admirable exam
pie of the ordinary bourgeois drama,
a bourgeois drama applied, unfortu-
nately, to Roman tragedy. Everyone
knows, Of course, the story of the sol
der Virginius, who killed his daugh-
ter rather than she should fall into
the hands of Appius.
When Shakespeare dealt with Ro-
man plays he made, 1t is true, his
characters Englishmen, but he made
them of heroic mold. Brutus and
Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony and the
rest, are certainly not commonplace,
even though one can hardly describe
them as accurately drawn in accord
ance with their Latin types.
But of all the characters of Sheri-
dan Knowles play 1t can safely be
said that they are just mediocre, bour-
geois, commonplace Englishmen and
Englishwomen of the times.
Virginius, for instance, is an excel
lent father of the middle class, whom
we could imagine going down to his
city Office every day and returning to
the suburbs in the evening. Virginia,
the lovely heroine, is a simpering
schoolgirl virtuous idiot
If this is what a return to nature
meant, it must be confessed that 1t
is a kind of nature that we do not
want Observation-Disclosures.

GREAT NEED TO STOP WASTE
Lesson That Should Be Impressed
on America by the FrishtfuI
War In Europe.

Waste is the crime of today, and 1t
is especially the great crime of this
awful war: waste in human life, in
hope, in love, and in the common
savings of us all. Millions of dollars
worth of the savings of the people of
this earth, all of them our brothers
and our sisters, are daily burned up,
exploded, and wasted in the madness
Of the nations; and even that is
trifie when we compare it to the great
human value of the lives that are
lost. It will not make any people
rich; and we Americans, rarely fortu-
nate in not being involved In the aw-
full strife, shall find our part Of the
burden to bear. Some time the war
will be over, and then waste must
stop; it must stop if we are to ad.
vance in humanity and civilization
over and beyond the yawning gap
made by the lust of blood, pride Of
race, and the vanity of kings. The
war has been in progress but little
while and already the cost OF It is be-
ing borrowed from future generations;
extra hard labor and sweat must
come from infants now at their
mothers breasts, to make good this
debauch of blood and fire. And in
the very measure that we waste is the
sentence at hard labor upon the ris.
ing generation prolonged. We cannot
get out Of it by being American: the
debt is upon us, in unequal measure
1t is true, but the debt, the obligation
to make up the losses, is upon us all.
