In His Pocket.

To prevent private automobiles en-
tering the road at Fort Benjamin Har-
rison leading past the quartermaster's
office, and interfering with government
hauling, a civilian employee has been
placed at the junction of the quar-
termaster's road with the main road
entering the post from the south. 1t is
his job to permit only automobiles
bearing q. M. ID. signs to pass him,
says the Indianapolis News.
The other day an automobile, plainly
a private machine and driven by liv-
cried chauffeur, turned down the for
hidden road.
Hey, where you goin'? Have you
got a pass?" shouted the traffic man.
The chauffeur nodded Eyes"
"Where you got it?' the traffic "cop"
continued.
1--WE got it here in my pocket" the
chauffeur replied.
Gall right, then, go ahead" the traffic
"cop' ordered, and the chauffeur
winked as he shifted gears and started
down the road.

was spoken of as one OF the regular
Globe productions, so II was probable
Jimrv Wallace's experience with the
production Of an earlier number In the
series would at least give her some
thing to go by.
Granted that she was going to be q
chorus girl for while, she could hard
ly find a better place than one of the
Globe productions to be chorus girl
in. According to Jimmy, it was de-
cent enough little place, and yet it
possessed the advantage of being,
spiritually, as well as actually, west Of
Clark street. Rodney's friends were
less likely to go there, and so have a
chance of recognizing her, than to any
other theater in the city.
The news item in the paper told her
that the production was in rehearsal,
and 1t mentioned the name of the direc-
tor, John Galbraith, referring to him
as one Of the three most prominent
musical-comedy directors in the coun-
try.
When she asked at the box office at
the Globe theater where they were re-
hearsing "The Girl Upstairs" today,
the nicely manicured young man in
side answered automatically, "North
End hail."
'T'm afraid" said Rose, smiling a
little, 'Tll have to ask where North
End hall is.''
"Not at ALL" said the young man
idiotically, and he told her the adj
dress-only block or two from Roses
room.

uncomfortable with the enforced con-
temptation Of the moment of parting
which they brought so relentlessly
nearer. There had been a terror, too,
lest when the moment actually came,
she couldn't do It. Well, and now 1t
had come and gone! The surgery of
the thing was over.
Rose busted the mirror with towel

self, when she discovered she was go
Ing to have to use that towel for a
week-and took an appraising look at
herself. Then she nodded confidently
there was nothing the matter with her
looks-and resumed her ulster, her
rubbers, and her umbrella, for 1t was
the kind Of December day which called
for all three. Then, glowingly con-
scious that she was saving a nickel by
so doing, she set Off downtown afoot
to get a job. She meant to get 1t
that very afternoon. And, partly be-
cause she meant to SO very definitely,
she did.
On the last Sunday before Rose went
away she had studied the dramatic
section of the morning paper with
good deal Of care, and was rewarded
by finding among the news notes
an item referring to a new musical
comedy which was to be produced
at the Globe theater Immediately
after the Christmas holidays. "The

CHAPTER XIV.
The World Alone.

Heres the first weeks rent then"
said Rose, handing the landlady three
dollars, land think you'd better give
me q receipt showing till when It's
paid for"
The landlady had tight gray hair
and a hard-bltten Ratchet face. She
had no charms, one would have said,
of person, mind or manner. But IL
was nevertheless true that Rose was
renting this room largely on the
strength Of the landlady. She was so
much more humanity possible than any
OF the others at whose placarded doors
Rose had knocked or rung II
The landlady went away to write out
a receipt. Rose closed the door after
her and locked II.
She didn't particularly want to keep
Aaybody out. But. In sense In which
u had never been quite true before.

For the first time since they were
born, she was thinking of their need
of her rather than of her need of them,
and with that thought came, for the
first time, the surge of passionate ma
ternal love that she had waited for
so long in vain. There was, suddenly,
an intolerable ache In her breast that
could only have been satisfied by crush
ing them up against her breast; kiss
ing their hands-their feet.
Rose stood there quivering, giddy
with the force of 1t. "Oh, you dar-
lings" she said. "But wait-wait un-
til l deserve it," And, without touch
ing them at all, she went to the door
and opened it. Mrs. Ruston and Doris
were both waiting in the hall.
II must go now" she said, "Good-by.
Keep them carefully for me-" Her
voice was steady, and, though her eyes
were bright, there was no trace of
tears upon her cheeks. But there was
kind of glory shining in her face
that was too much for Doris, who
turned away and sobbed loudly. Even
Mrs. Ruston's eyes were wet.
"Good-by," said Rose again, and
went down composedly enough to her
car.
She rode down to the station, shook
hands with Otto, the chauffeur al
lowed a porter to carry her bag into
the waiting room. There she tipped
the porter, picked up the bag herself,
and walked out the other door; crossed
over to Clark street and took a street
car. At Chicago avenue she got off,
and walked north, keeping her eyes
open for placards advertising rooms
to let. 1t was at the end of about half
a mile that she found the Ratchet
faced landlady, paid her three dollars,
and locked her door, as a symbol, per-
haps, Of the bigger, heavier door that
she had locked upon her past life.
Strongest among all the weller Of
emotions boiling up within her, was a
perfectly enormous relief. The thing
which, when she had first faced it as
the only thoroughfare to the real life
she so passionately wanted, had
seemed such veritable nightmare,
was an accomplished fact. The week
Of acute agony she had lived through
while she was forcing her sudden res
olution upon Rodney had been all but

IN MEMORY OF
 MILTON HARDIN

Milton Hardin, little son of Lon P. and May Hardin, died March 2, 1917 and was buried at Oak Ridge cemetery on Satur- day, March 3rd. Milton lived two years and one month and two or three days.
 The services were held in the home by their pastor, J. W. Harrell.
 Scripture lessons 2 Sam. 12: 1923 Mark 10:13-16. My friends in life we are in the midst of death. We stand here today in the presence of a great mystery. But this is Gods strange way, God gave, twas His own, and God hath taken a. way, His own.
 We lay this bit of mortality a. way in the grave to await Gods own good time and will, when He shall call it forth again.
 This little one was permitted to live and move in this world and in this home just long enough to win the hearts of father and mother.
 When Jesus was here on earth He showed His love for little children, He loves them none the less today.
 When here He called little children to Him and put His hand upon them and blessed them.
 He is calling little children to Himself for He loves the little children.
 Father and mother your lit- tie one is not here, 'tis gone above to be with Jesus and the Angels. He cannot come back to you, but you may go to him. This is the joy of our hope, the consolation of our Christianity. But for this we would indeed be most miserable.
 Why should our tears in sorrow flow,
 When God recalls His own, And bids them leave a world of woe
 For an immortal crown Then let our sorrows cease to flow,
 God has recalled His own; And let our hearts in every woe,
 Still say, Thy will be done"
