Immaculate Carpeting, However,
Soon Ianishes Under Sunbcams
Of Spring.

The blizzard which struck this city |
and neighborhood last Friday night
and which was followed by snow ana
high winds Saturday sent depression
into the souls of all who had been an {;
ticipating spring weather yesterday.
The Weather Bureau however, an
nounced that there would be clear
skies Yesterday with snow upon the
ground. This forecast was fulfilled.
Early risers were greeted with clear
weather and stiff northwesterly
wind. AS the sun rose most OF the
snow disappeared, and only IN
shady places were there any evil
dences of Saturdays wintry weather.
When the church bells began to
send forth their peals early spring
conditions were in evidence, and the
streets were thronged with people
| vending their ways to their respec-
tive places of worship. All the
churches celebrated Easter in one
way or another. Music appropriate
| to the occasion was rendered and SER
mons on the resurrection delivered.
! A large percentage of the popula-
ton of the city appeared on the
streets in the afternoon. While there
were strictly speaking no Easter pa
rades, males and females moved in
| platoons and bevies, and there was
joy in the air.
! The wind and sun had dried the
earth sufficiently TO render pedes-
trianism enjoyable, and. as is gener-
ally the case, on bright Sundays
throngs visited "West Alexandria
! that is the newly territory
The service in most Of the churches
at night were combinations of those
in the morning.
Easter Monday has been observed
mostly by the younger generation
The schools have been closed, but the
custom of rolling eggs on the occa
sion has not been generally observed
MANY however, INDUCED in other rec
reations.

The Chinese
God
Part It Played In a Rejected
Lovers Revenge
By RALPH COBINO
Copyright by Frank A. Munsey Co.

Arkeld moved about his room study
ing detail. The arrangement Of the
flowers did not please him, and he rang
for his man.
"This is right in coloring," he said
to the servant, mot in design. Oh,
your best doubtless'- He checked
apologies with gesture. "Now work
under my supervision"
The result was bizarre, startling; a
mass of outrageous bloom in a quiet
room, for the room was quiet; it
breathed repose and stiffness, limited
even at mOnOtOny.
Arkeld nodded to himself, well pleas
ed with the effect.
His eyes fell upon the only orna-
ments in the room, two small models
of Chinese gods which stood upon the
chimney piece.
His hand caressed one Of the grin
ming models. With whimsical move
ment he stopped and whispered to it:
"Tell Stella that there is another wo-
man in the heart and mind Of Godfrey
Liston. Be sure and give Stella the
message"
Then his guests-a Mr.. and Mrs. God.
frey ListOn-were announced.
They were handsome couple. dis
tinguished in manner.
The lady's eyes took in at one glance
the arrangement Of the room and of
the flowers. She said quickly:
"Here you have artistic charm. Only
why introduce alien things?"
"You mean the fowers?"
"These particular flowers and their
arrangement"
Dinner was announced, and the talk
became trivial, leaving subtleties.
The meal was excellently cooked and
served. Stella noted the details. ap-
proving them.
She thought of the days when she
had been engaged to Arkeld. She
thought also Of the day when she had
met Godfrey Liston.
Love had swept her off her feet
when she met Liston. Whereas Ar
keld-she had always feared Arkeld!
Fear had gone masked as love. Fear
had been in all her thoughts of Ar
keld WI II she wrote to tell him that
she coti,. not marry HMM fact, that
she was Iaing to marry Lston.
She had imagined to herself Arkeld's
reception of this letter.
The fear that was within her pOr-
trayed something which would leap to

I.sston and his wife moved automat-
ically, puppets moving at the bidding
Of Arkeld.
The entrance hall, the stairs, their
own room when they reached it, were
not so near to Stella as the room Of
dim gray with the masseG, outrageous
blooms.
She was still there, was wrapped
about by it's yelled suggestions Of the
thoughts of Arkeld.
She faced Liston, stared at him.
His eyes, not meeting hers, fell upon
the crumpled letter in her hand.
She opened her fingers, and the let
ter drifted to the floor. She pushed it
toward him with her foot. There was
another woman!
She seemed to hear the laughter Of
Arkeld. Surely he had laughed when
he fingered the little god.
This revenge was of greater subtlety
than the poisoned fumes of which he

PART OF PETITION is LOST
Monster Suffrage Roll Minus 100000
Signatures.

Washin gton, Dec. PROMINENT
women suffragists here are trying to
clear up the mysterious loss of part
of the monster petition which has
travelled across the continent for pres
entation to a committee of congress
demanding a federal woman suffrage
amendment.
The once four-mile script is now
shorn of 2,64O feet and minus 100000
signatures, The loss occurred be-
tween Wilmington, Del, and this city,
but just how it happened no one
seems to know. The petition was
brought as far as Wilmington by two
delegates. Mrs. Field and Miss Joliffe,
in an automobile, and then expressed
to Washington.

spoke. Poison could but kill the body;
this letter scared the soul of her.
Liston stopped, touching the paper
us though he feared it. The date star
ed him in the face.
She read his thoughts.
$50 recently Her words tripped,
vague things.
Realizing, with a stab Of something
that was like physical pain, the mock
cry of her marriage, she ended with a
sentence that was not vague.
"Then you married me merely for
my money, fooling me with honeyed
| words?"
Suddenly she realized the subtlety Of
this vengeance Of Arkeld's. He had
hung weight about her neck which
she could not cast off. He knew her.
Loveless she would starve.
Liston spoke volubly, seeking eva
sion.
He bit in two Il sentence which ours
ed Arkell for finding out this thing.
AS for the letter, he sought to cloak
its damning contents by contempt for
Arkeld's probable methods of obtain
ing it.
''She is poor" Stella reminded him.
She pointed to the letter. You be-
moan her poverty even while you cast
her off"
Her voice stung her again.
"Such woman would be glad of re-
venge-and money" she said.
Her mind held the picture of Arkeld
paying with eager fingers sum of
money for this instrument of ven
geance.
She spoke again, repeating herself:
"You fooled me with honeyed
words!' The intolerable thought was
that Arkeld knew this. He had seen
her gather dross. thinking it gold. The
knowledge was his revenge.
She had loved Liston, thinking him
unaffected, certainly not subtle-a very
honest man. That which she had loved
had never had an existence save as
creature Of her mind.
Liston threw the letter into the fire.
They watched it burn. Flames leaped.
tongues voicing sorry things.
That part of Liston which was least
ignoble watched this burning with
shamed eyes.
The part of him which was least ig
noble crept to his lips. saying:
Forgive meY'
She looked at him.
Her eyes seemed to entreat this part
Of him which was not base to triumph.
to burn up other things. The thought
came to her that this triumph would
lessen the power Of Arkeld's revenge.
Arkeld had conceived a very subtle
form of vengeance. But subtlety was
Il thing which might be Of small ac-
count in the presence Of great natu-
ralness.
Liston said again:
Forgive me. If not yet-then some
day.
Liston came toward her.
His fingers touched the hand that
hung Imply at her side. He pointed
to the laughing god.
Lets still his laughter" he said.
She felt her lips stiffen, refusing to
move easily. She forced herself to
voice forgiveness. Forgiveness was a
thing which would strike that jeering
god upon the mouth and silence-Ar-
keld!
Yes, it was the way out!
Listens fingers still touched her
hand.
There's a chance for us since you
forgive" he said

had not turned this imagery Of hers
into u concrete thing.
He had made the astounding offer Of
his friendship.
