On The Rack
Continued from preceding page

A CLEAN of fire in his shirt-stud car
ried his thoughts with lightning rapid
ity (via diamond rings) to Nellie, and
the present he had brought for her.
Had it travelled safely?
He looked for his rugs. This greenish
bundle was not his. How came it
here7 He laid it on the bed side by
side with his own neatly strapped roll
and carlessly unwrapped it.
Good heavensl" he cried, " a babyl"
dropping the corner of the rug and
starting back.
The baby gave a little granting sigh
and opened its eyes for brief second,
while Charles heart settled down to
its normal beat, He felt better able
to cope with it in this condition.
4" A sleeping baby is better than
roaring lion, passed through his mind.
He fancied it was a Scriptural quota
ton.
The first shock once over, he gave
way to rage. Who and what was
this baby? and why was it struggled
into his room? 1t must be got rid of
at once; but how, and where?
1t seemed to have come with the
luggage, but it was certainly not his,
and he was not going to be made a
chances with Nellie spoiIt, through
this ridiculous baby.
The only thing he could think of
was to leave it secretly in the Majors
room. 1t was, perhaps, playing rather
low down, but if it was not the Majors
baby, neither was it his, and SOL
He grasped the child, huddled in its
rugs, and tiptoed across to the Majors
room opposite, hoping to find it empty.
The Major, however, had also found
it necessary to hnger over some fin
Ishlng touches. He opened his door
at that instant, and the two men met
on the threshold
Major Slimm looked inquiringly at
the bundle in Charles arms At this
critical iuncture small white hand with
five waving tentacles of fingers appeared
from the wraps, and a smothered cry
was heard.
The deucel" said the Major, start
ing back.
Charles plot was nipped in the
bud.
He looked piteously and appeaIingly
at his fellowman, who stood grinning

on their labors to look up till a burst
of merriment from the door startled
them.
Robins dropped the spoonful of
milk-onto Charles knee, and Charlie
only held onto the baby by q miracle.
He gave himself up as a lost man,
but Clarissa Fagg bounded forward,
seized the baby, kissed 1t nearly to
suffoeation, and-saved the situation

DuG MAJOR Snmm guessed 1t. HIS
grin faded. He fixed Charlie with a
one another, while the tentacles waved
between.
Then the Major said clearly and de-
cisively:
That baby does not belong to me,
and won't have it planted down
in my room"
To point his remark he turned and
locked his door on the outside, and
walked down to dinner with the key
in his pocket.
Then the gong changed and the
baby whimpered simultaneously. AS
the gong ceased a rustic of skirts was
audible in the corridor.
Charlie fled into his room. The
baby was crying loudly by this time,
and he shook it frantically to and fro.
A wild idea of smothering it with the
pillow and disposing of it at once for
all flashed across his brain. He was
in liberal perspiration, and his collar
was fast losing its pristine freshness.
There came tap at the door, and
the smooth voice of Mr.. Seymour's
man made itself heard.
Mr.: Seymour sent me to tell you
dinner Is served, sir"
oh, come in, Robinsl called Charlie.
1t was no use hiding the baby; it could
be heard anyway.
Robins came in with a perfectly
impassive face, as though he were not
at all surprised to find Mr.. Soper
swinging a screaming infant in his
arms, with about the same action a
groom employs IN emptying a pail of
water As matter of fact, he was
not surprised, having previously scru-
tlnIzed the scene through the crack
OF the door, and doubled himself up
hilariously before knocking.
For goodness said, Robins. do take
this baby" implored Charlie.
1t isn't mine. l found it in my
room l don't know how it came
here, 1t must have got mixed up
with my things"
Robins preserved a discreet silence
Don't stand staring" went on
Charlie, getting angry again, 'but do
something. Invent some plan to get
to dinner and leave it bowling hereI"
think, sir" said Robins, after
serious thought, you had better ex-
plain to Mr.. Seymour. It'll ave to
to come out, sir, sooner or later.
There's no concealing of a baby"
Charlie groaned.

continued Robins, 81 think you had

Mr.. Seymour II take more more
kindly to an explanation after dinner.
He's kept waiting now five minutes,
and he don't ike it, sir"
This sounded ominous, and Charlie
was only too glad to defer the expIana-
ton
And if you like, sir, can send up
one of the women"
"No, mol" exclaimed Charlie, al

Very good, sir" said Robins,

think if we could administer cup of
milk to that baby it might leave off
screaming I really think it must be
'ungry, sir"
Robins, you're a geniusl" said
Charlie, and Robins departed on his
errands of mercy.
Mr.. Seymour was looking impatiently
at the clock when Robins appeared to
say that Mr.. SOper had a violent tooth
ache, and begged to be excused from
dinner

HOW MATCH FIGURES IN WAR

 lag Named In England.

No commodity has had more adven- lures than the match. The announce ment of the appointment of a special controller all to itself Is fitting eli max to a eheckered history, says the Manchester Guardian. In the memory of our grandparents the cunbrous 'PromethcanS" that sought to displace flint and steel were a high-priced lux ury impossible to the poor.
 In the memory of our fathers Henry George. for one. condemned the match as one of the articles that were "toO cheap" He had in mind. of course. the sweating and the poisoning Of workers that for too long went to the making of cheap matches.
 Yet the popular inslstence on cheap matches turned ont of office British chancellor of the excheQuer and coined an immortal eligram: and the superi- ority of the matches that can normal ly he bought in this country over the fiimsy. lifelrss. expensive sorts sOld across the channel under government control has given the free-irader one of his most ho,nely and incOntestable arguments. The British match must now suffer control.
 Such matches az there are will be fairly apportioned at fixed prices. We do not doubt that there will be enough to go round. for, faced with famine in some districts and with loose matches at 30 for penny in others people have already begun to make that economy In consumption which. with no greater sacrifice than little care. might easily save 6 half of the matches burned.

Lafayette Flying Corps.

Considerable confusion exists in the minds of many persons about the diff ference between the Lafayette Esca- drilie and the Lafayette Flying corps.
 This famous aerOnautic body was the Section d'AviatiOn of the Legion Etrangere in the early days of the war. To mark the number of Ameri- cans who were sharing the dangers and victories the name was changed to the Franco-American Flying corps. But as the United States was not then at war with Germany complaint was made that this was breach Of neutrality.
 To avoid giving offense the nam was changed to the Lafayette Flying corps. which is the present Ofncial designation.

THE MONEY SITUATION

The cratic attitude of the stock exchange during the past few weeks has been a source of considerable speculation among men interested in financial questions. Liquidation has been the chief feature, and although freauent rallies have occurred, they have been followed by fresh selling waves. MT. Henry Ciews, the New York expert in finance points out cer- tain causes for this situation.
 Chief among the present depress- ing factors, he says, was the, market ing of a vast mass of government bonds in brief period overtaking the absorbing power of the public and i'm posing an extraordinary pressure upon banking institutions. Large quantities of investment securities have been dislodged to facilitate taking our gov ernment issues in the belief that they could be purchased at lower prices later on. Other causes of depression, he adds, such as vanishing war pro- fits, increased taxation, government regulation and the like, are all famii- far and have been discounted
 "The advancing tendency in inter- est rates," says MT. Clew, 'is plainly reflected in the persistent fall of se- curity values. The shrinkage of many of these so far blow instrinsic values, when measured by former standards, must be attributed to the huge mass of government obligations forced up- on the market by war finance.
 Meanwhile private corporations cannot compete with the government in bidding for capital. This is the one cause of the wave of H. quidation which started with the first liberty loan. The decline in the price of the latter, though small, is signi- ficant: for with the growing demand of governments all over the world for money in vast sums, higher rates were As for the future of the market, predictions are useless at times of such great uncertainty. The selling pressure has materially les sened with a more confident feeling on the buying side. and it is worthy of note that prices show heavy recover ies after every slump"
 Speculative operations. he con- cludes, should be conducted with eau tion, on account of the unstable con dition of financial affairs. not only in this country, but throughout the world.

Despite the growth in population an'I increased areas under cultivation, the horse population of Los Angeles coun, ty, California. ia now less than one, half as much as In 1900. The auto mobiles and motortrucks have in creased from ( to 79.146. The 47,OW horses in the county in 1900 were val, ued at $5.OOO.OOO. In 1910 the drop in number was to 31,OOO. and in the en- suing six years to 10000. The pres. ent automobile valuation is nearly $lOO, 100000.

DISASTER is looming over Russia

DISASTER is looming over Russia. With the food problem forcing a truce, and the Bolsheviki victorious everywhere. it is practically certain that Russia is out of the war for good.
