air, let him 60 to bed every night dog-tired
physically, let him get out of sight of her
eyes and lips and away from that some
thing-intangible as a perfume-that
emanated from her, and doubtless he
would be laughing at himself as heartily
as he had laughed at others.
But he could not frame the words. His
lips refused to move. Not only that, but,
facing her here, it seemed a grossly brutal
thing to do. She looked so gentle and
fragile this morning as, picking up the
violets, she half hid her face in them.
"You mean we ought to go back to the
day before yesterday" he asked.
AIN our thoughts, she answered.
4And forget that we are"
She nodded quickly, not allowing him
to finish.

must be that which is making you serious.
don't know you that way. 1t isn't you.
I've seen you all these years, wandering
around wherever your fancy took you
care-free and smiling. I've always envied
you, and now-I thought you were just
going to keep right on, only taking me
with you. Isn't that what we planned?'

she corrected. II don't think can ever
be afraid of him again"
HThen it wasn't he that bothered you
last night" he asked quickly.
NO. she answered.
Att wasn't II"
She laughed uneasily.
@No, Monte; because you were just
yourself yesterday"
HE wondered about that He Won
dered, if he placed before her all the
facts, including the hours after he left her,
if she would have said that. Here was
he had planned. If he did not intend to
60 on, he should speak now. Tomorrow
it would be too late By noon it would be
too late. By the time they finished their
breakfast, it would be too late.
He met her eyes. They were steady as
planets. They were honest and clear and
clean and confident. They trusted him,
and he knew it. He took deep breath
and leaned forward. Impulsively she
leaned across the table and placed her
hand upon his.
@Dear old Monte, she breathed.
1t was too late-now! He saw her in a
sort of mist of dancing golden notes.
She withdrew her hand as quickly as
she had given it. 1t was as if she did not
dare allow it to remain there. 1t was that
which made him smile with certain con-
fdence of his own.
"What we'd better do, he said, "is to
get out of Paris. I'm afraid the pace here
is too hot for U.S..
@To Etois?" she asked
"That's as good place as any. Could
you start this afternoon"
"If you wish"
"The idea is to move on as soon as you
begin to think" he explained, with his
old-time lightness. "Of course, the best
way is to walk. If you can't walk-why,
the next best thing"

idea. 1t was odd that it had never oc-

mo, Monte, she answered, with de-
cided shake of her head.
"But, hang it all, people don't go a-gyp-
sying with French maids!"
"Why not?' she demanded.
She asked the question quite honestly.
He had forgotten Marie utterly until this
moment, and she seemed to join the party
like an intruder. Always she would be
upon the back seat.
Wouldn't you feel freer without herr"
he asked.

declared.
"Then we might just as well not have
been married"
"Only," she laughed, "if we hadn't
taken that precaution it wouldn't have
been proper for me to go, even with
Marie"

naturally.

Don't COUNT" he exclaimed. "Why-"
He stified the words that sprang to his
lips. 1t was only because she thought she
did not count that she was able to feel
comfortable. Once let her know that she
counted as at that moment she did count
to him, and even what little happiness he
was able to bring her would vanish. He
would be to her then merely one of the
others-even as he was to himself.
He rose abruptly.
II must see about getting machine,
he said. II want to start this afternoon

As they went out to the Office, the clerk
stepped up to him.

week was we'll defined; it was to get back

been much easier to have done this by

GEN. VON MOLTKE IS
 DEAD OF APOPLEXY
Chief of Supplementary General Staff of German Army Dies at
 Mourning Service

Amsterdam, June 18.-(Via London.) Lieut.. Gen. Count Helmuth Won Moltke, chief of the supplementary general staff of the army, died of heart apoplexy this afternoon during a service of mourning in the Reichstag for the late Field Mar shal Won Der Goltz, says Berlin tele- gram tonight.
 Lieut.-Gen. Count Won Moltke was a nephew of the late Field Marshal Won Moltke, the great straegist, who directed the victorious movements of the German armies when they achieved their mem- orable triumph in the Franco Prussian war of 1870. At the time of his uncle's death in 1890. he was a major, but in 1899 he was made general, three years later a lieutenant general and in 19oz chief of the general staff, in which last named office he has been credited with having perfected the splendid organiza- tion of the German army.
 During the fall of 1914 announcements of General Won Moltke's illness were followed by reports that he had been superseded as chief of the general staff These, however, proved unfounded, but in December of that year he retired from the post. his failing health, it was said, preventing his return to the front He was succeeded by the present head of the general staff, General Von Falk- enhayn. In the January following he was appointed chief of the supplementary general staff.

MANY RAILROAD MEN
 ATTEND SERVICES
 AT LYRIC THEATRE
Dr. Edmonds Read Age-Herald Extra on Mobilization of State Troops and Offered Prayer for Guid-
 ....... ance of Officials

The services of the Independent Pres byterian church at the Lyric last night were attended by a large number of railroad men and their families. Horace E. Ramsey, baggagemaster of the Louis vile and Nashville railroad, was instru- mental in arranging the service, sending personal letters of invitation to the va rious brotherhoods and individuals in the railroad service over the district.
 Dr. H.. M. Enmonds spoke from the test found in the 18th chapter of He brews Jesus Christ, the same yester- day, today and forever" I tF
 These are changing times, said Dr. Edmonds, lin all walks of industry, of medicine. of astronomy and all the sci ences. The things that were true 50 years ago are not true today. Thought is constantly changing, all endeavor is moving on. The new replaces the old"
 He then related the story of George Stevenson and his engine and compared that crude imperfect affair with the wonderful steam locomotives of today.
 "But there are some things that do not change" he said, "the great funda- mental principles of life are unchang- ing; the life of sacrifice and service as taught by Jesus is now as true and real and vital as it was in His day; more and more men are taking into ac- count the life of God in man as He demonstrated while in the flesh among men. Jesus insisted on men having the right to life in it's fullest measure. more abundant life He came, to give" Many of pr. Edmonds' illustrations were specially related to railroad and industrial life, generally reaching re- sponsive chord among his listeners.
 The West End quartette that was scheduled to assist the regular choir at this service was prevented from being present. Owen Gillespy sang, Just as I am, without one plea," at the close of the service.
 Just before commencing his sermon an usher handed Dr. Edmonds a copy of The Age-Herald extra relating the or ders of the President to mobilize the state troops. He read aloud the war news and then offered fervent prayer for guidance for those in whose hands the great issues lie. He then went on with his sermon.

TEXAS IS GLAD

San Antonio, Tex, June 18.-News that President Wilson had called out the mi llitia for border duty was received with qualification at army headquarters here. General Funston has long insisted that he be given additional troops not only to assist the regular troops in patrolling the border but to be in readiness to play a part in any other operations that might be undertaken.
 It was understood that General Funston already has suggested to General Scott that in the event the militia was called upon all organizations not already fit for service be held at their home stations un- til equipped and ready for the field. This plan would not prevent the dispatch im- mediately, however, of the militia of at least three or four states which are now comparable to regular troops, so far as equipment and organization are con- cerned.
