SECOND INSTkLLMENT
CHAPTER v.

$50 you are the little boy who ia
trying to find the little Amcsbury
girl" said Barclay.
Tommy steele had never been in
such n magninccnt room. There were
thousand things TO have drawn the
attention of sharp.eyed small boy
bu: Tommy never took his eyes from
Mr. Barclays eyes This pleased the
great man, who disliked people who
showed fear or inattention.
"Sit down." he said
Tommy almost disappeared into n
leather arm chair that smelled vague
ly of very expensive cigars.
you were very fond OF her, weren't
your"
"Yes, sir" said Tommy. "Can you
tell me where she has gomez"
Barclay did not answer at once. 81
understand" he said, that you, too,
have lost both your parents?"
Il live with my Aunt Sallie." said
Tommy.
rs she married?"
yes sir"
And has boys and girls OF her
own" asked Barclay.
Yes sir; five"
Il understand that your aunt and
uncle are not as rich as they might
be. and that ii is asking n good deal
OF them to take care of even one extra
mouth Now | have n great
big house and servants and good
things to eat, and the only thing |
haven't got is little boy or girl Of
my own. How would you like to pay
,ne n visit, and, If we find that we like
each other, to live with me?"
Il should like" said Tommy naive
ly. Ito pay you a visit"
Barclay laughed heartily. you
shall" he said. "and you won't have
to tell your aunt about II, because |
have arranged all that. We thought
perhaps you would be willing to come
and so she has packed up all your
things and sent them here" He
touched bell on the great table In
front OF him, and almost instantly.
and without any noise whatsoever. II
man servant appeared in the room.
SHOW Mr.. steele to his room said
Barclay, and. with pleasant nod to
Tommy, Il dine at half-past seven,
he said.
Tommy fingered a moment. "You
haven't told me-" he said. where she
has gone"
Barclay rose and laid his hand al
most carcssingly on the boys shoul-
der. Tommy" he said your little
girl has gone to heaven
1t was very sad little boy
who bathcd and dressed himself
in an cton suit. little too small for
him, and went down to holrpast sew
en- dinner, hut he wasn't ms sad as he
might have been. for he was too young
not to he excited and entod by his
new surroundings.
Barclay did not patronlzc Tommy or
talk down to him. ic treated him
IN an oflhand matteroffact way, just
as IL Tommy had been his equal, so
II the room had bccn n little smaller
and the man servants fewer Tommy
would have sooner felt at home.
When dinner was over Tommy sat
on and ate nuts while Barclay drank
coffee and smoked cigar. At nine
o'clock the little boy went to bed. II
was natural that he should feel a it,
tie sad and lonely with the uufamili-
arity OF everything, and that he should
have one dream after another.
But they were all about the little
Amesbury girl
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1915-11-19

Then he sent for Tommy. Tommy
he said, I'm very fond of you and
you have been bitter disappointment
to me"
% know IT," said Tommy. Il can't
help II. Pm made that way but I'm
awfully sorry"
THE bulk Of my property" said
Earcl,y, "Will have to 20 to someone
with more respect for property"
"Ycs, sir, | see that
"Eut you will always have plenty"
"Thank you, sir"
That's because I'm fond of you, and
because it is only just"
Even If you are disappointed in
me-" said Tommy please don't stop
liking me"
There was something very wigtful
and manly about the boy, and Barclay
was more deeply moved than he cared
to admit.
81 shall always be fond of you,
Tommy" he said.
Ten minutes later the great man
wrote few direct dictatorial sen
tcnces on sheet of note paper and
sent them by special messenger to
Mary Blackstones father.
Senator Blackstone, man with a
large mouth, hook-nosed face and
white side-whiskers, frowned heavily
after reading Barclays note; frowncd
heavily, heavily paced the floor of his
library, gave vent to defiant mutter-
ings, and then suddenly collapsed into
Il deep chair, as if tired, and read the
note again.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1915-11-19

Dear Blackstone:
Don't by any chance allow your dauCh.
ter to throw herself away on my adopted
ron She belongs to the aristocracy OF
wealth That aristocracy may one day
become n nobility Mary is fitted to wear
the purple and 10 share the throne of the
worlds greatest empire. The world In
which we live Is pregnant with great
vents And the weak will 80 under. De
Yours in haste,
BARCLAY.
Mary Blackstone sat for a very lone
time staring into space. She didn't
want to give up Tommy. She did
want to give up all those wonderful
possibilities that her father had
talked about so solemnly after exact
ing from her solemn promise of
secrecy. Could it be true that the old
order of things, a president catering
TO this vote and that, a congress con
tnually throwing obstacles in the
way of enterprise and efficiency, was
TO change all Of a sudden? Her father
said so.
They have ground down the
trusts" he said. "only to find that they
ground themselves down at the same
time
Now the pendulum is swinging the
other way. Gradually the trusts will
regain what they have lost. What is
the right step? Greater trusts
Yes, but beyond that, staggering
belief, a trusts of trusts A trust
in whose hands will be all the
threads of business of a whole con
linent. and whose stockholders shall
be the inhabitants of that con
linent. Poverty and degradation will
cease to exist. The head of that trust
may be called chairman, president,
dictator, perhaps he will be called
king, And already the powers who
believe in this coming change have
such a man in their eye. He will not
he the first king; he is very young,
but he will be the second. After him,
who? Why a son of his body, trained
form birth to fill that great position.
And you, my dear. if you wished,
might be that sons mother, and wear
diadem"
And so she sat staring into space
And for the first time in her life she
found that ambition is stronger than
the mere wish to exist and have a good
time.
A footman appeared with a silver
tray on which was a white card.
who is it, Bentadge?"
"Mr. Thomas Barclay, madam
Tell him. she said, that am not
at home"
Tommy, sure of his welcome, had
been told that Miss Blackstone was at

Interesting article entitled, Safety

The popular idea Of the soldiers

men who have come home from the

pink, setting the knives and forks for

The dream varies, ~ course, with

sentiment that would appear to go
hand-in- hand with the color process.
That is Just where the editors and
artists who are responsible for these
Heartstring- pullcfs make the mistake.
The soldier in action very rarely

than he could wish. His sleeping
hours. like his waking hours are
crowded with thoughts of war and

TlIE THIN PEOPLE EAT MORE
Require More Food TO supply Energy
Lost.


'must take a lot of food to keep
them alive is u remark YOU often
hear made about fat men or women.
The truth of the matter is, however,
that of two persons of the same
weight, the one who is thin requires
considerable more food than the one
who is fat, says am exchange
Science tells us that the amount Of
food required is proportoned TO the
amount of energy lost. The latter, in
turn, is dependent not simply upon
the total weight OF the body, but upon
the net quantity of active cell pro-
tOplasm and upon the relationship
between the bOdy's surface area and
its weight
The chief reason why a thin person
requires more food than fat one
Of the same weight is that fat being
metabolcally inactive does no work.
1t is natures supply u fuel for future
Another reason is the fact that the
thin person has more surface area
from which heat is continually radi-
ating The stOuter a person gets the
more nearly he approaches the form
OF a sphere. and, therefore, the less
his surface area.
OF view, a considerable advantage in
having your bones well rounded out
with flesh.
The average human body has two
and one-half times the area Of a
sphere of the same specific gravity
and weight. A man Weighing 200
pounds, but OF the same degree OF
plumpness as one weighing only 100
ponds. will require less than twice
as much food as the thinner individ-
ual The reason is that. although the
surface Of his body Is greater, II Is
not twice as great for the ratio vt
surface to weight is less than in the
case Of the smaller person
For the same reasons woman us
ually requires only from four-fifths to
nlne-tenths as much food as man
OF the same weight The more grace
ful contours Of a wOman's figure as
compared with the angularity Of
mans body are accompanied in gem
eral by a larger proportion OF fat and
relatively smaller surface area.

\ Poor Judge of Chickens.

In the current issue Of Farm and
Fireside several contributors discuss
the best ways to develop egg-laying
qualities in poultry. Some believe
strongly in trap-nesting and others do
not one of the advocates of trap
nesting tells the following story:
"Once at poultry show | met a
man who did not think the trap nest
necessary, as he had taken a CORES
pondence course in How to tell the
layers and could pick 'em out. We
had a pen on exhibition consisting Of
No 2262; No. 49, another 20O-egg
hen, another hen which the trap nest
had shown to be a very poor layer,
and hen which had not been tested.
Il at once asked him to pick out
the best layers from that pen, and he
picked the poor layer and the INFESTED
hens as good layers, and rejected the
200-egg hens as poor layers"
