What Is the use of being thirty years
old with the brevet of captain and

a poor MANN short, what is the good

He rang his bell, and when his

Tarascon is never silent. No French

Brunei, rs rather melancholy"
Melancholy" exclaimed the young
Oficer. TITS Internal. Stop 1t at once"
The ordonnance held his kept in his
hand. He had round good-natured
face and kind gray eyes that were
used to twinkle at his masters humor
and caprices.
Il beg pardon, mon Capitaine, but
q very serious event is taking place"
ut will be more serious yet, Brunei,
If you don't keep things quiet"
Il am sorry to tell, mon Capitaine,
that Michette has just died"
'Michette!" exclaimed the master

"Ah. mon Capitaine," grinned the or

Sabron nodded and took his cigarette
out Of his mouth as though in respect
for the deceased.
'Ah. yes" he said, that melancholy
little dogi Well, Brunet!"
"She has Just breathed her last,
mon Capitaine, and she is leaving be-
hind her rather large family"
Il am not surprised" said the officer

SabrOn rose, threw his cigarette
away and, following across the garden
in the bland May light, went into the
stable where Madame Michette, a

his correspondence. Among the let
ters was an invitation from the Mar
quise d'Esclignac, an American mar
ried to a Frenchman, and the great
lady of the country Whereabouts.
will you not" she wrote, come to
dine with us on Sunday? l have my
niece with me. She would be glad to
see French soldier She has ex-
pressed such wish. She comes from
a country where soldiers are rare. We
dine at eight"
Sabron looked at the letter and its
fine clear handwriting. Its wording
was less formal than a French invita-
ton is likely to be, and It gave him
sense Of cordially. He had seen,
during his rides, the beautiful lines
Of the Chateau d'Esclignac. It's tur-
rets surely looked upon the Rhone.
There would be a divine view from
the terraces. 1t would be a pleasure
to go there. He thought more Of what
the place would be than of the people
in 1t, for he was something of her
NIT, rather recluse, and very re-
served.
He was writing line of acceptance
when Brunei came in, tiny bundle in
his hand.

sunlight" ordered the officer, and we
shall see If we can bring him up by

cut him down in the prime OF his
youth, and now, according TO Brunei.
there wasn't much usel"
Pitchoune was bandaged around his
hind quarters and his adorable title
head and forepaws came out CG the
handkerchief bandaes.
"He won't eat anything from me,
mon Capitaine," said Brunei, and
Sabron tremendously opened the pup
py's mouth and thrust down a dose.
Pitchoune swallowed obediently.
Sabron had just returned from a
long hard day with his troops, and
tired out as he was, he forced himself
to give his attention to Pitchoune. A
second invitation to dinner lay on his
table; he had counted the days until
this night. 1t seemed too good to be
true, he thought, that another picture
was to add itself to his collection! He
had mentally enjoyed the others
often, giving preference to the first,
when he dined at the chateau; but
there had been a thrill in the second
caused by the futtering Of the white
dress down by the poplar walk.
Tonight he would have the pleasure
of taking in Miss Redmond to dinner.
See, mon Capitaine," said Brunei,
"the poor little fellow can't swallow
it."
The water trickled out from either
side of Pitchoune's mouth. The sturdy
terrier refused milk in all forms, had
done so since Sabron weaned him; but
Sabron now returned to his nursery
days, made Brunei fetch him warm
milk and, taking the quill, dropped a
few drops of the soothing liquid, into
which he put dash Of brandy, down
Pitchounes throat. Pitchoune swal-
lowed, got the drink down, gave a
feeble yelp, and closed his eyes. When
he opened them the glazed look had
gone.
The officer hurried into his eve
ming clothes and ordered Brunei, as he
tied his cravat, to feed the puppy lit
tie of the stimulant every hour until

FACTOR IN MODERN WARFARE
Commanding Generals Gould Not
Handle Present Enormous Armies
Without the Motor.

With millions of men drawn up in
battle array at one and the same time,
to handle them effectively by old-time
methods would have been impossible.
Even before ne opposing fronts were
extended to their fullest degree in
France alone, they were officially de-
clared to have attained a length of
300 miles, and one of go miles in the
east-fgures which not only convey
some indication Of the stupendous
size of the engaging forces, but even
more emphatically suggest the ire
mendous responsibilities of the COM
manders in chief.
Nevertheless, although they have to
deal with millions instead of tens of
thousands, the commanders concerned
have never had their forces so com
pletely under control; in every phase
Of the warfare, whether of transport,
attack, defense or supply. the keynote
of the operation has been effectiveness
of the completest kind.
The motor, in short, has "speeded
up" the war in way that could never
have been dreamed of by former gen.
erations. Never have the movements
of troops been so rapid; for, instead
Of men having to wait for ammunition
and food supplies, these have been
conveyed by motor wagons which can
travel, II need be, much faster than
the armies themselves. Charles l.

he should return. Pitchoune's eyes,
now open, followed his handsome mas
ter to the door. AS Sabron opened it
he gave a pathetic yelp which made
the capitaine turn about.
Believe me, mon Capitaine," said
the ordinance with melancholy IA
tality, cit is no use. If am left with
Pitchoune it will be to see him die.
know his spirit, mon Capitaine. He
lives for you alone"
Nonsense" said the young officer
impatiently, drawing on his gloves.
Pitchoune gave plaintive wall from
the bandages and tried to stir.
"As for feeding him, mon Capitaine, g"
the ordonnance threw up his hands,

But Sabron was halfway down the
stairs. The door was open, and on the
porch he heard distinctly third ten

CHAPTER u.
Julia Redmond.

He remembered all his life the first
dinner at the Chateau d'Esclignac,
where from the terrace he saw the
Rhone lying under the early moon
light and the shadows falling around
the castle of good King Rene
AS he passed in, his sword clanking
for he went in full dress uniform to
dine with the Marquise d'Esclignac-
he saw the picture the two ladies made
in their drawing-room: the marquise
in very splendid dress (Which he
never could remember) and her niece,
a young lady from a country whose
name it took him long to learn to pro-
nounce, in a dress so simple that of
course he never could forget 1t! He
remembered for a great many years
the fall of the ribbon at her pretty
waist, the bunch of sweet peas at her
girdle, and he always remembered tho
face that made the charm of the pic
ture.
Their welcome to him was gracious.
The American girl spoke French with
an accent that Sabron thousht be-
wilderingly charming, and he put aside
some of his reserve and laughed and
talked at his ease. After dinner (this
he remembered with peculiar distinct
ness) Miss Redmond sang for him, and
although he understood none of the
words of the English ballad, he learned
the melody by heart and it followed
with him when he left. 1t went with
him as he crossed the terrace into the
moonlight to mount his horse; it went
homo with him; he hummed it, and
when he got up to his room he hummed
it again as he bent over the little roll
of flannel in the corner and fed the
puppy hot milk from a quill.
This was a painstaking operation
and required patience and delicacy,
both of which the big man had at his
finger-tips. The tune of Miss Red
mond's song did for a lullaby and the
puppy fell comfortably to sleep while
Sabron kept the picture of his eve
ning's outing contentedly in his mind.
But later he discovered that he was
not so contented, and ounted the
hours when he might return.
He shortly made a call at the Cha,
teau d'Esclignac with the result that
he had new picture to add to his col
lection. This time it was the picture
of lady alone; the Marquise DIES
clignac doing tapestry. While Sabron
found that he had grown reticent
again, he listened for another step and
another voice and heard nothing; but
before he took leave there was hint
of a second invitation to dinner.
The marqCise was very handsome
that afternoon and wore ye. another
bewildering dress. Sabron's simple
taste was dazzled. Nevertheless, sh,
made graceful picture, one CT beau
ty and refinement, and the young sol
der took it away with him. As hi
horse began to trot, at the end Of tn,
alley, near the poplars at the lowe
end of the rose terrace he caught
glimpse of a white dress (undoubtedl,
simpler dress than that wor.. b,
Madame d'Esclignac).
Mexico Missouri message., 1915-04-08

small wire-haired Irish terrier had
given birth to a fine family and her
self gone the way Of those who do
their duty to race. In the straw at
his feet Sabron saw a ratlike, unpre-
possessing little object, crawling about
feebly in search Of warmth and nouT-
fshment uttering pitiful little cries.
Its extreme loneliness and helpless.
mess touched the big soldier. who said
curtly to his man:
Wrap it up. and if you don't know
how to feed 1t should not be sur
prised II | could induce it to take a
little warm milk from a quill. At all
events we shall have a try with 1t.
Fetch II along to my rooms"
And as he retraced his steps, leay.
ing his order to be executed he
thought TO himself: The little beggar
is not much more alone in the world
than ami AS he said that he re-
called a word IN the meridional patois:
Pitchounea which means poor little
ehingR
\ shall call It Pitchoune," he
thought 'and we shan see II 1t can't
do better than its name suegests.s
He vent slowly back 10 his rooms
