Enrl.ud,s Crowinw importance.

Frank H. Simonds in Review of Re-
views: At the moment Germany sug-
gests peace, we see the control of the
policy and purposes of her three great
opponents passing into hands deter
mined to carry on the war and with all
three of her great foes reorganizing
their ministries and replacing their
generals, with the plain purpose to
push the campaign and with not the
smallest suggestion that peace is ex-
pected or desired on any but terms that
only a victor can dictate. To me these
crises in Britain, France and Russia
are the strongest reasons why the Ger
man proposals will fail to end the war;
rather, L think they will accelerate the
pace of the fghting. when spring
comes, and 1t ia possible to move in
France and Belgium again. And hence
forth the part that Britain will play in
the coalition against Germany will in
crease steadily, in my Judgment; 1t may
become commanding, IL as many Eng
lishmen believe, Great Britain has
found in Lloyd George another Pitt.

CHAPTER TX.


At La Feria Alaire discovered that
the federal depredations had been even
greater than she had feared. Not only
had the soldiers taken great many
head of cattle. but they had practically
cleared the ranch of horses, leaving
scarcely enough with which to carry
on the work.
Life in the roomy, fortresslike adobe
house was pleasant enough. Alaire
welcomed the change in her daily life.
Everything about La Feria was rest
fully un-American, from the house it,
self. with its bare walls and floors, Its
brilliantly Towering patio, and Its
primitive kitchen arrangements, TO the
nlack-Shawled, barsfooted Indian wom-
en- and their naked children rolling in
the dust. Even the timherleSS noun
tains that rose sheer from the west
ward plain into a tumbling purple
Swallowed rampant were Mexican. La
Feria was several miles from the rail
road: therefore 1t could not have been
more foreign had it lain in the very
heart of Mexico rather than near the
northern boundary.
In such surroundings, and in spite of
faint mlsgivings, it was not strange
that. after few days, Alaire'S unhap-
piness assumed a vaguely impersonal
quality and that her life, for the mo-
ment. seemed not TO be her own Even

NOW 1T is HURRY UP GIRL
Boys Are Displaced as Telegraph Mes
sengers in One Office and Expert
ment Proves Successful.

"Did you ever see anything like IL
in all your life?" Manager Fowler OF
the Western Union Telegraph office at
New Brunswick, n. j., asked referring
to one of his messenger girls, referring
ing to the New York Herald. She was
turning the corner on the run with a
telegram in her hand which she was
on her way to deliver.
She was Annie Ford pioneer of the
messenger girl service of America. She
was smiling and the expression on her
face seemed so say, This is the life"
The girl fairly radiated with happi-
ueSS.
Miss Ford has had the place only a
few weeks. Just after she began duty
Violet Gallagher, a 1916 graduate OF
the New Brunswick high school, joined
the Western Union forces. Both girls
took to the work like ducks take to
water.
The girls went into the messenger
service because New Brunswick boys
who heretofore had been available for
messenger service are engaged in the
industries now. Mr.. Fowler had
problem to solve and after much
thought offered positions on the mes
senger force to girls at 81 day. The
results have been most gratifying. The
girls are intelligent, of pleasing APP
pearance, and their businesslike man
ner has made them great public ia
vorites.
The experiment seems a decided sue
cess and is being watched by other
telegraph office managers. The girls
are especially valuable since the zone
system has been put into effect, and
there is time limit for the delivery
Df messages. The girls work only in
the day time.

see how constantly / think of YOU"
Longorio drew from his pocket several
photographs of the Austin ranchhouse.
'Where did you get thoseT' Alaire
asked in establishment.

badly worn already, for keep them
next TO my BOSOM"

SAYINGS OF A CYNIC

Every man has a conscientious OBJ
lection to marriage.
All men are billeted from birth in
some woman'S heart.
A stolen kiss has cost many man
fifty years matrimony.
No girl likes the dark, unless there's
something in it besides solitude.
The devil has worn petticoats ever
since Eve first started a wardrobe.
In real life it's the gander, not the
goose, that has to lay the golden eggs.
All girls are the essence of propriety
till man distills them into something
else.
"Tears, idle tears" A man knows
what they meant takes a check TO
dry them instead of a handkerchief.

order for the release of Juan Garcia.
"The salvo conducto which will permit
Juan and his Inez and their Juanito to
return to their farm Is being made
out" he explained. "Are you salts
fed?"
Alaire looked up wonderingly. 81 am
deeply grateful. You overwhelm me.
You area strange man."
Dear lady, live to serve you. Your
wish is my law. How can prove 1t
further?"
The strained, throbbing silence that
followed LongoriO's last words did
more to brighten the woman than had
his most ardent advances. He would
have fingered indefinitely over the
table, but Alaire soon rose to go, ex-
planning:
81 must finish my disagreeable task
now, so that can go home tomorrow"
Tomorrow" her host cried in dis
may. "No, not You must wait"
"My husband is expecting me-"
This statement was a blow; it
only look his keen distress.
AS they stepped out into the street,
in the gutter stood IneZ Garcia with
her baby in her arms, and beside her
the ragged figure of young man,
evidently her Juan. The fellow was
emaciated. his face was gaunt and
worn and frightened, his feet were
bare even of sandals, the huge peaked
straw hat which he clutched over his
breast was tattered, and yet in his eye
there was light.
They had waited patiently, these
Garcias, heedful of Longorio's orders,
and now they burst into torrent of
thanks. They flung themselves to
their knees and kissed the edge of
Alaires dress. General LongoriO en-
joyed this scene tremendously, and his
beaming eyes expressed the hope that
Alaire was fully satisfied with the mo-
ment.
'"They look very poor" said Alaire,
and opened her purse; but Longorio
would not permit her to give. Extract
ing large roll of paper money from
his own pocket he tossed it. without
counting, to Juan, and then when the
onlookers applauded, he loudly called
to one of his officers. saying:
''Oiga Give these good friends of
mine two horses, and see that they are
well cared for. Now, Juan" he adj
dressed the dazed countryman. Il have
one order for you Every night of your
life you and your pretty wife must say
a prayer for tae safety and happiness
of this beautiful lady who has induced
me to spare you. Do you PROMISE 2"
I'VE promise!" eagerly cried the
pair.
Good See that you keep your
word. On the day that you forget for
the first time Luis Longorio will come
to see you. And then whatl" He
scowlcd at them fiercely.

chorused.

became indistinct and unreal. Then
all too soon she realized that the pur-
pose of her visit was accomplished,
and that she had no excuse for re-
naming longer. She was now armed
with sufficient facts to make a definite
demand upon the federal government.
The homeward journey was rep
etition of the journey out. Jose, as
before, was newsgatherer. Hour after
hour they crept toward the border, un-
til at last they were again laid out on
a siding for an indefinite wait.
The occasion for this was made plain
when an engine drawing single Ca
boose appeared. Even before it had
come to a pause, tall figure in spot
less uniform leaped to the ground and
strobe to the waiting coaches. 1t was
Luis LOngorio. He waved a signal to
the conductor, then swung aboard the
north-bound train.
The general was all smiles as he
came down the aisle, and bowed low
over Alaire's hand.
Dolores gasped and stiffened in her
seat like woman of stone.
Heaven be praised! You are safe
and well" said the newcomer. II
have blamed myself for allowing you
to take this abominable journey!

befall you. Every night have prayed
that you might be spared all harm.
When L received word that you were
coming, made all speed to meet you. "
Dolores and 1 are greatly in your
debt" Alaire told him.
"But you stayed so long!"
'There was more work than ]

'My husband will thank you for your
great courtesy to me-" Alaire managed
to say.
But the mention of husbands was
not agreeable to one of Longorio's SEN
sitiveness, and his face betrayed a
hint of Impotence.

"Senor Austin and I must know each
other better and become friends"
"That is hardly possible at present.

she was scarcely more than child
herself-whose husband is in prison.
Every day she comes TO plead with the

But he will not see her, and the sol

"A common story! These women
and their babies are very annoying"
observed the general.
"She says that her husband is to
be shot"
VERY likelyl Our prisons are full.
Doubtless he is bad man."
Cant you do something's"
"Eh?" Longorio lifted his brows in
the frankest inquiry.
THAT poor girl with her little, bare,
brown-eyed baby was pitiful." Alaire
leaned forward with an earnest appeal
in her face, and her host smiled.

'Inez Garcia. The husbands name
is Juan"
''Of course. These peladors are all
Juans. You would like to appear as

touched?"

"Bastantei There is no more to be

the next room, where We're certain
members of his staff. After time he
returned with paper in his hand, and
this he laid before Alaire. 1t was an
