quently in Italy. He was peculiarly
conceited and affected young buffer,
Georg Brandes writes in the Century
Magazine. He used to tell the Italian
girls at Ischia and Capri that his father,
a schoolteacher in reality, was the best
friend of the king of Denmark, and
that he himself was one of the great
est men in Denmark. To prove this,
he often appeared in entire suits of
white satin. He called himself poet,
but could find poetical inspiration only
in the wilderness or in desolate, dreary
spots. He once went to Crete to write,
he said, a great drama Of tragedy. He
returned, however, without having ac-
complished his purpose. He averred
that he could feel tragic emotion only
in the mountains, and lived in self
delusion and illusion.
Some of his characteristics have
passed in "Peer Gynt." Otherwise
"Peer Gynt" is supposed to be an in

lies are not really falsehoods, if this
implies the intention to deceive others.
They are rather self-deceptions. "Peer

Cervantes' "DOn QuiXOte," and is more
closely related to Daudet's 'Tartarin."

her mother came in and, presently, Por-
tia. She introduced him to them, and
then dropped out of the conversation
altogether. AS if it were a long way
off, she heard him retailing last nights S
adventure and expressing his regret
that he hadn't taken her to his sister
to be dried out, before he sent her
home.
She was aware that Portia stole a
look at her in puzzled, penetrating
sort of way every now and then, but
didn't concern herself as to the basis
of her curiosity. 1t wasn't until he
rose to 60 that she aroused herself
and went with him into the hall.
There, after he'd got into his overcoat
and hooked his stick over his arm, he
held out his hand to her in formal
leave-taking. Only it didn't turn out
that way. For the effect Of that warm,

you're such a wonder" he said.
She smiled. $50 are y-you." 1t was
the first time she had ever stammered
in her life.
When she came back into the sit
ting-room, she found Portia inclined
to be severe. did you ask him to
come again?" she wanted to know.
Rose smiled. Il never thought of
it," she said.
Perhaps it's just as WE'LL" said
POrtia. "Did you have anything at
all to say to him before we came
home, or were you like that all the
while? How long ago did he Gomez"
Il don't know" said Rose behind
very real yawn. Il was asleep on
the couch when he came in. That's
why l was dressed like this" And
then she said she was hungry.
There wasn't on the whole, a hap
pier person in the world at that mo-
ment.
But Rodney Aldrich, pounding along
at five miles an hour, in a direc-
ton left to chance, was not happy.
Or, If he was, he didn't know it. He
couldn't yield instantly, and easily, to
his intuitions, as Rose had done. He
felt that he must think-felt that he
had never stood in such need of cool,
level consideration as at this moment.
But the process was impossible.
Anyway, it was a remark Frederick
had made last night that gave him
something to hold on by. Marriage,
she had said, was an adventure of
which no amount of cautious thought
taken in advance could modify the eS-
sential adventurousness. There was
no doubt in his mind that marriage
with that girl would be more won
derful adventure than anyone had
ever had in the world.

Heioht of a Camera,

A safe rule in most cases, is to
have the camera at such a height
that the lens is about level with the
eyes of a person Of average height,
standing. This implies that most tri-
pod stands, all ultra portable ones, are
too short in the leg, as even those
which allow the camera to be at this
height only do so when the feet are
so near together that the stand Is
unstable. With lenses of short focus
it is usually advantageous, especially
in interior work, to have the camera
lower, while with very long focus
lenses it may be higher to avoid q
foreshortening Of the ground. In the
case of domestic interiors, 1t is i'm
portant to have the lens we'll above
the level Of table top, as the effect
of the furniture seen from a lower
viewpoint will be unsatisfactory.

CHAPTER w.
How 1t Struck Portia,

It was just a fortnight later that
Rose told her mother she was going
to marry Rodney Aldrich, thereby
giving that lady a greater shock of
surprise than, hitherto, she had ex-
perienced in the sixty years of a
tolerably eventful life.
Rose found her neatly writing q
paper at the boudoir desk in the little
room she called her den.
Mrs. Stanton said "What, dear?"
indifferently enough, just in mechani-
cal response of the matter-of-fact in
Election Of Rosalind's voice. Then she
laid down her pen, smiled in q puzzled
way up into her daughters face, and
added: my ears must have played
me funny trick. What did you say?"
Rose repeated: Rodney Aldrich and
l are going to be married"
But when she saw a look of painful
incomprehension in her mothers face,
she sat down on the arm of the chair,
slid a strong arm around the fragile
figure, and hugged it up against her.
self. Il suppose" she observed con-
tritely, that l ought to have broken
it more gradually. But 1 never think
of things like that"
AS well as she could, her mother
resisted the embrace. 81 can't be-
lieve,' she said, gripping the edge Of
her desk with both hands, that you
would jest about a solemn subject like
that, Rose, and yet it's incredible .!'
The mother freed herself from the
girls embrace, rose, and walked away
to another chair. IF you'll talk
nationally and seriously, my DEAR" she
said, Eve can continue the conversa-
ton. But this fiippant, rather-vulgar
tone you're taking, pains me very
much.'

you've told me-" said her mother,
"that Mr.. Aldrich has asked you to
marry him and that you've consented.
1t seems to me you have done so
hastily and thoughtlessly. He's told
you he loves you, I've no doubt, but
l don't see how it's possible for you
to feel sure on such short acquaint-
ance."
"Why, Of course he's told me-" Rose
said q little bewildered. "He can't

than 1 can help telling him. We're
rather mad about each other, really.

In the deeper sense-and she wa.
breathlessly conscious of this, too
he hadn't forgotten she was there
He was telling it all because she wa:
there--because she was herself an(
nobody else. She knew-thOugh how
she couldn't have eXplained--witf
that intuitive certainty which is the
only real certainty there is, that the
story couldn't have been evoked from
him in just that way by anyone else
in the world.
At the end Of two years in the
states attorneys Office, he told her
he figured he had his training and was
ready to begin.
Il made just one resolution when
hung out my shingle," he said, "anc
that was that no matter how few
cases 1 got, 1 wouldn't take any that
weren't interesting-that didn't give
me something to bite on. l wasn't
willing to be bored for any reward
they had to offer me. It's cynical to
be bored. It's the worst immortality
there is. Well, and never have been. >
1t wasn't all photographed and
narrative. There was a lot of his
deep-breathing, spacious philosophy
of life mixed up in it. And this the
girl, consciously and deliberately,
provoked. 1t didn't need much. She
said something about discipline and
he snatched the word away from her.
"What is discipline? Why, it's
standing the gaff = standing it, not
submitting to it. It's accepting the
facts of life-Of your own life, as they
happen to be. 1t isn't being conquer
ed by them. It's not making masters
of them, but servants to the underly-
ing things you want"
She tried to make q reservation
there suppose the things you wanted
weren't good things?
But he wouldn't allow it. "What-
ever they are" he insisted, ''your de-
sires are the only motive forces
you've got. No matter how fine your
intelligence is, it can't ride anywhere
except on the back of your own
passions. Learn to ride them-cOntrOl
them-spur them. But don't forget
that they're you just as essentially as
the rider is."
1t was with a curiously relaxed
body, her chin Graded in the crook of
her arm, which lay along the back
of the couch, her eyes unfocused on
the window, that the girl listened with
more and more poignantly vivid con-
sciousness Of the man himself, the
driving power of him, of something
carelessly eXultant in his own strength
She got to thinking of the flight of a
great bird wheeling up higher and
higher on his powerful wings. Sud-
denly and to her CONSERVATION, she
felt her eyes flushing up with tears.
She tried to blink them away, but they
came too fast.
Presently he dropped short in his
walk-stopped talking, with a gasp,
in the middle of a sentence, and
looked into her face. She couldn't see

when the United States destroyer
Smith reported by radio that an enemy
submarine had tried unsuccessfully to
torpedo her 100 miles south of New
York at $50 A. M. Additional reports
were received from the destroyer and
were forwarded to Washington. Moth
ing of an official nature regarding the
additional reports was made public
here. A suggestion in shipping circles
that the lookout on the Smith had per-

morning met with the reply that the
Smiths officers "stood by their origin

The Navy Departments version of
the original statement was:

which missed her by 80 yards. The
wake of the torpedo was plainly seen

peared."
Whether the swift destroyer dashed
for the spot where the U-boat was
thought to be lurking was not made
known by officers who had seen the
Smiths report of the incident. Neither
could it be learned here whether there
was a chance for the Smiths quick
frers to come into action. 1t was
learned, however, that another de-

yourself: Poor old Portia! She's al

The wedding was set for the first
week in June. And the decision, in
stantly acquiesced in by everybody,
was that it was to be as quiet AS
strictly family affair-as possible.
Indeed, the notion of even a simple
wedding into the Aldrich family left
Portia rather aghast.
But this feeling was largely allayed
by Frederica's first call. Being a cele-
brated beauty and a person Of great
social consequence, didn't, it appeared,
prevent one from being human and
simple-mannered and altogether de-
lightful to have about. She was so
competent, too, and intelligent (Rose
didn't see why Portia should find any
thing extraordinary in all this.

that it was deliberate.

him clearly but she saw his hands
clench and heard him draw a long
breath. Then he turned abruptly and
walked to the window and for a NOR
tai, endless minute there was a silence.
Something happened during that
moment while he stood looking into
her tear-flushed eyes-something mo-
mentous-cr -critical-which no previous
experience in her life had prepared her
for. And it had happened to him, too.
His silhouette as he stood there with
his hands clenched, between her and
the window, showed her that.
What underlay her quiet was won
der and fear, and more deeply still, a
sort of cosmic contentment-the acqui-
escence of a swimmer in the still, ir-
resistible current of mighty river.
1t was distinctly relief to her when
