 "That's what I mean-take 1t slowly, Mir. MinOt. I'm George, and if Allan ever gets his eyes on me l won't have to prove who I am. He'll know, the kid will. But, by the way, what l want now is to meet this chap who claims to be me-also his friend, Mir. Trimmer.
 "Of course you do. 1 saw them out in the lobby a minute ago." Minot rose. "IIl bring them fin. But-but'-
 What is it?"
 "Oh, never mind. believe you"
 Trimmer and his proposition still adorned the lobby, puffed with pride and pompousness. Briefly Minot ex Dlained that a gentleman in the grill room desired to be introduced, and graciously the two followed after. The Chicago George Narrowly rcsc as he saw the group approach his table. Sud denly behind him Min0t heard a voice:
 My God% And the limp English man of the sandwich boards made long, lean streak toward the door Minot leaped after him and dragged him back.
 Here, Trimmer" he said, your proposition has chilblains."
 "What's the trouble?" MT Trimmer glared about him.
 Allow me-" said Minot. "Sir-our leading vaudeville actor and his man ager. Gentlemen-Mr. George Harrow by of Chicagow
 "Sit down, boys" said Mir. Narrowly genially. He indicated a chair to MT. Trimmer, but that gentleman stood, his eyes frozen to the face of his proposi- tion. The Chicago man turned to that same proposition. Brace up, Jenkins" he said. Nobody will hurt you"
 But Jenkins could not brace. He all lowed Minot to deposit his limp body in a chair.
 "I thought you was dead, sir" he mumbled.
 "A common mistake" smiled George Narrowly. "My family has thought the same, and I've been too busy mak, Ing automobiles to tell them different ". MT. Trimmer will you have a. what's the matter, manp
 For MT. Trimmer was standing, pur- pie, over his proposition.
 'T want to get this straight" he said with assumed calm. See here, you cringing cur-what does this mean"
 'T thought he was dead" murmured poor Jenkins in terror.
 "You'l think the same about yourself In minute-and you'll be right" Trim mer predicted.
 "Come, come," said George Harrow by pacifcal!y. "Slt down, MT. Trim mer. Sit down and have a drink. Do you mean to say you didn't know Jen- kins here was flking?"
 "Of course I didn't" said Trimmer. He sat down on the extreme edge of a chair, as one who proposed to rise soon. "All this has got me going. ] never went round in royal circles be- fore, and I'm dizzy. I suppose you're the real Lord HarrowbyT
 "To be quite correct, l am. Don't you believe it?'
 q can believe anything-when look at him." said Trimmer, indicating the pitiable ex-claimant 10 the title. Say, who is this Jenkins we hear so much aboutT

CHAPTER Xiv.
Tho Shortest Way Home.


 Ia TlINOT stood amid the colorful IM blooms of the hotel courtyard HI and looked up at her window, with It's white curtain waving gently. He called softly. And then he saw her face peering out as some senorita of the old days from her lat tice.
 i've news-very important news" he said. May see you momentT
 She came, dressed in the white thnt set or so well her hair of gleaming copper. Minot met her on the veranda. She smiled into his eyes inquiringly.
 Do you mind-R little walkF" he asked.
 Where to-"
 Say to the fort-the longest way"
 She glanced back toward the hotel.

 But that will only make 1t the more exciting. Please! And I've Dews- real news"
 The gray fort loomed in the moon light like a historical novellsts dream. Its huge ironbound doors were locked for the night; its custodian home in the bosom of his family. Only It's lower ramparts were left for the feet of TO- mantle youth to tread.
 Along these ramparts, close to the shImmering sea, Miss Meyrick and NIinot walked, Truth to tell, 1t was not so very difficult to keep ones foot ing-but once the girl was forced to hold out an appealing hand.
 French heels are treacherous," she explained.
 Minot took her hand, and for the 1 first time knew the thrill that en- countered often on the printed page, he had mentally classed as "rubbish!' Wisely she interrupted 1t;
 You said you had news?" .
 He had, but 1t was not so easy to impart as he had expected.
 "Tell me-" he said, If 1t should turn out that what poor old George said this morning was Q fact-that Allan Narrowly was an imposter - would you feel so very badlyT She withdrew her hand,
 You have no right to ask that" she replied. ~-.. .....
 Forgive me-. Indeed I haven't, But I was moved to ask 1t for the reason that-what George said was evidently ] true. Allan Narrowly left suddenly for the north an hour ago" -...
 The girl stood still, looking with wide eyes out over the sea. "Left-for the north" she repeated. There was a long silence. At length she turned to Minot, a queer light in her eyes. "Of course you'll go after him and bring him back" she asked.
 "No" Minot bowed his head. T know I must have looked rather silly of late. But if you think l did the things I've done because l chose to- you're wrong. If you think did them because. I didn't love you you're wrong too. Oh, I''-

Many very respectable people still
look upon politics as thing so NEAR

III political affairs, and they leave the
selection of candidates, the election
of public officials, and the conduct OF
public affairs to ward heelers and po-
litical bosses.
If the political situation is not what
it should be, only the people are to
blame. With the direct primary, they
have the opportunity to nominate
candidates, and they have the power
to elect them.
Of course, professional politicians
lave done much to intimidate people
in an effort to prevent them from
nominating candidates, and so inter-
fering with the slate carefully arrang-
ed by the bosses; but the day of the
political boss is waning and states are
too fragile to stand the rough handl-
