The prince stretched out his hand,
but he was too late.
John found himself, after a few
minutes hurried walking, in Picca-
dilly. He turned abruptly down Duke
street and made his way to st. James
park. From here he walked slowly
eastward. When he reached the
Strand, however, the storm in his soul
was still undated He turned away
from the Milan. The turmoil of his
passions drove him to the thoughts
Of fight. Half an hour later he en-
tered st. Pancras station.
what time is the next train north
to Kendall or .Carlisle?" he inquired.
The porter stared at him. Johns
evening clothes were spattered with
mud, the raindrops were glistening on
his coat and face, and his silk hat was
ruined. 1t was not only his clothes,
however, which attracted the mans at
tention. There was the strained look
of fugitive in Johns face, fugitive
flying from some threatened fate.
'"The newspaper train at five thirty
is the earliest. sir" he said. 81 don't
know whether you can get to Kendall
by 1t, but it stops at Carlisle"
John looked at the clock. There was
an hour to wait. He wandered about
the station, gloomy, chill, deserted.
The place sickened him, and he strolled
out into the streets again. By chance
he left the station by the same exit
as on the day of his arrival in London.
He stopped short.
How could he have forgotten, even
for a moment? This was not the world
which he had come to discover. This
was just some plague-spot upon which
he had stumbled. Through the murky
dawn and across the ugly streets he
looked into Louise's drawing-room. She
would be there waiting for him on
the morrow!
Louise! The thought of her was
like a sweet, purifying stimulant. He
felt the throbbing of his nerves
sOothed He felt himself growing calm
The terror of the last few hours was
like nightmare which had passed. He
summoned a taxicab and was driven to
the Milan. His wanderings for the
night were over.

Had to "come Out of tn

John Lavery, the famous artist, had
a funny experience at Newmarket
some time ago. On that historic race
course, bookmakers are forbidden to
put up stands or display boards. But
the famous academician only wanted
to sketch the course, and, as he was
staying with Lord Derby. he went bold
" and set up his easel.
But he reckoned without the race
course policeman, who told him to "get
out of it," installing his easel for
stand As he had not got a written
permission, he told the policeman he
was guest of Lord Derby: but the
unbelieving BOBBY only said: Same
old yarn. They all do it, Come out
of It'll" And Mr.. Lavery had to "come"

lie could have sworn that her lips had
called his name. He felt himself be-
witched, filed with an insane longing
to throw out his arms in response to
her passionate, unspoken invitation, in
obedience to the clamoring of his seeth-
ing senses. He had forgotten, even,
that anyone else was in the room.
Then, suddenly, the music stopped.
The lights flared out from the ceiling
and from every corner of the apart
anent. Slender and erect, her arms
hanging Imply at her sides, without a
touch Of color in her cheeks or a coil
of her black hair disarranged, without
a sign of heat or disturbance or pas
sion in her face, John found Aida
Calavera standing within a few feet
of him, her eyes seeking for his. She
laid her fingers upon his arm. The
room was ringing with shouts of ap-
plause, in which John unconsciously
joined. Everyone was trying to press
forward toward her. With her left
hand she waved them back.

little time"
She frightened her clasp upon her
companions arm, and they passed out
of the picture gallery and down a long
corridor. John felt as if he were
walking in a dream. Volition seemed
to have left him. He only knew that
the still, white hand upon his arm
seemed like q wise burning into his
flesh.
She led him to the end of the CORR
dor, through another door, into a small
room furnished in plain but comforta-
BILE fashion.

She sank back upon a divan as she
spoke. John turned to leave the room,
but she called him back.
"COme here" she invited, "close to

And my dancing-that pleased you?"
He felt the words stick in his throat.

Her arms stole toward him. The I'M

Her lips were parted. She smiled
up at him.

He left the room and passed out
again into the picture gallery before
he had the least idea where he was.
The band was playing a waltz, and
one or two couples were dancing. The
people seemed suddenly to have be-
come like puppets In some strange
unreal dream. He felt an almost fever

the prince.

asked.

Some PrussIan Orders Cheap.

Mention in the recent debate on the
enemy princes bill in the British par
lament, that Lord Middleton possessed
the Prussian Order of the Red Eagle,
led that nobleman to intervene with
the remark that when it was offered to
him he wished to decline it, but was
forced to accept 1t. 1t is cheap, and
for this reason coveted by the Prussian
bourgeois, whereas the Order of the
Black Eagle is almost as exclusive as
the English Garter. Red Eagles are al
lotted generally in January, along with
other similar distinctions, at festival
Of orders, which includes truly demo-
cratic banquet where the chancellor
NAV find himself sitting side by side
with a station master, or even his local
postman. In the January before the
war some 1000 orders were handed out
at this annual festival, no fewer Than
200 of which were of the Red Eagle
brand.

Once more she rose to her feet and
walked across to the windoy. An au
tomobile had stopped in the street be-
low. She looked down upon it with
sudden frozen feeling of apprehen-
sion.
John moved to her side, and for him,
too, the joy of those few moments was
clouded. A little SILVER OF PRESENT.

"The Ne'er-Do-Wen, filmed as a
spectacular drama by the Selig Poly
scope Company is considered by many
as Rex Beach's greatest story.
In The Ne'er- Do-WeH," fascinat-
ing Panama scenery is shown, includ-
ing the work of digging the Panama

homes, glimpses of the interior of the
tropical jungle, and odd and interest
ing hooks and corners.
The cast in THE Ne'er-Do-W eIP'

NEW ENGLAND PEACHES

The flavor of food depends upon
the sense of smell as we'll as the
sense of taste. The flavor and odor
of raw peaches are superior to that
Of the cooked fruit. This rich luscious
fra grance combined with the beauty
of the fruit appeals strongly to the
appetite and this aids digestion
Some people feel that raw peaches
are not as easily digested as those
that are cooked. A sound, fully rip
ened peach is one of the most digest
ible of fruits. 1t is possible in some
cases that the cooked fruit is found
to agree better with a weak digestion
The strained Juice of a ripe, raw
peach is considered safe and bene-
fetal food for child of eleven
months, however.
Peaches are to be served with the
skins on should be thoroughly wash
ed The fuzzy surface holds dust
The fruit should be well chilled IT
can be eaten seasily from the skin
with a spoon by cutting the peaches
in halves and removing the pit.
If preferred, the skins of peaches
can be peeled off quickly after plung-
ing them into boiling water for a mo-
ment. They may then be cut in
halves and placed on ice When
ready to serve the centers may be
filled with powdered sugar and the
peaches served with whipped cream

Today is the last chance to bring
the Riddles to see that wonderful
European act filled with animation,
toys and animals. Probably no act
in America has created the sensa-
ton that this beautifully staged pony
and dog act has among the younger
lovers of the circus and the theatre.
With the act staged in the latest con-
ception, and the. scenery built like
a toy shop. each. of the playthings
represented moves by the action OF
some trained pet. 1t is truly Won
