The Daily Story
a Touring Car Episode-By Pauline D. Edwards

My dear Belle, I have had an adven-
ture, and I must tell you all about 1t.
AS soon as the spring opened became
wild to 90 on an auto tour with our
new machine, that is admirably fitted
tor long trips, having a rack in the
rear large enough to carry a Saratoga
trunk Or course I couldn't tour alone
or with 8 girl friend Mamma would
not hear of that. and there was moth
ing for il but she must go with me
herself
We started when the leaves on the
trees were well grown, with excellent
road maps, and by supplementing the
information they gave use at every
fork IN the road We got on very well
One evening we were nearing a place
called HuntingdaIe, which seemed to
be rather collection Of summer cot
tages than anything else, and we did
not have the name Of any hotel at
which TO stop. Passing an autoist who
had alighted to examine his engine, I
asked II he could direct Us to a pub
lie house where we could spend the
night. He looked up at me, and our
eyes met.
Did you ever look into the eyes Of d
man for the first time and recognize
through them a soul that was in har-
mony with yours? This I did when I
met the gaze OF this man Not only
that; knew ne saw in me what /
had found in him.
i am sorry to say" he replied to
my question. that there is no hotel in
Huntingdale. You'll not find one that
you would care TO stop at till YOU

young man, to q private family hotel,
but they are not taking bo8rders there
this year except myself. However. if
you care to try ] think you can get in
for one night"
We said we would certainly care 10
try, and the young man, pulling down
the hood Of his auto and cranking it
got into his machine and led the way
TO an attractive looking house on an
eminenCe. When we reached it ne
asked us TO remain in our car till he
stated our case for US. We thanked
him, and he went inside, In a few
minutes he returned and said that he
had fixed the matter for us satisfac-
rorily. Tae iaudIady was confined to
her room. but he was very much at
home there himself and would see that
we were made comfortable. He hand

mamma and I declined it when the
waiter was about TO pour il into our
glasses, whereupou Mr.. Sterling said
The terms Of this house include

We permitted the waiter to dll our
glasses. but since the wine served was

for our one nights stay would be

After dinner mamma remained be

The next morning we breakfasted

that Mr.. Sterling had gone out early
in his car. We asked for our bill, bur
were told that the laudlady was not
in a condition to make it up and II we
would leave our address a statement
would be sent as when she recovered.
Upon our return home we expected
to find our hotel bill. We were still
expecting 10 find it when one evening
Mr.. Sterling called and put q new
face on the matter. He confessed
that he had taken US to his own resi-
dence. that the landlady was a myth
and that the waiter was his butler.
He apologized for his deception by
saying that it had occurred to him to
take this course rather than attempt
to force before US the hospitality OF

oland's Choice.

The greeting and invitation issued
by the new Russian government to the
Poles has ring that ought to reach
the hearts Of that impressionabIa
people. There is hope for Poland in
the hands OF the new Russia and there
is evidence in support Of the hope in
the treatment already accorded Fin
land In the other direction lies the
kingdom of Poland set up by Austria
and Germany-oUt of territory that is
not theirs and organized for the pur-
pose Of entlcing Poles into the Teu-
tonic armies. The insincerity that
gave birth 70 that country. made on
paper, IS sufficient basis for g predic-
zion OF its unhappy future. There can
not be q question about where the
choice of the Poles will go.
