Capt. George Guynemer, who has
been officially posted as missing, is
credited in the army aviation records
with having shot down SO German
airplanes inside the German lines and
with having destroyed at least 25
more that were uncounted. Captain
Buynemer has been missing since he
flew from Dunkirk Sept. II, and it is
feared that he is dead.

off the coast of China. 1t meant a
great opening for him, and Esther told
him he must go. He urged an imme-
date marriage as he must sail in three
weeks if he accepted. But her mother
strongly opposed the hurried wedding.
Judge Marvin had been dead only few
weeks, and she felt that her daughter
was now being torn from her. Esther
assured her mother she would remain
with her, but as she still kept the same
attitude, March was for giving up the

Howard March did not return in
three months, but she heard regularly
from him. Sometimes the letters were
short, but when they halted, and he
had more leisure, they were long, filled
with accounts of his travels, and al
ways breathing devotion winch
seemed to increase rather than lessen
by absence. After about eight months
the letters ceased. The last one had
told of starting on q tnip into wild,
UNEMPLOYED country, and as the weeks
went by without any tidings Esther
concluded March was still beyond any
means Of communication. But when
the weeks heightened into months, and
the months into years with never a
word from him she knew not what to
think. Those who had known him had
settled it that either he had been killed
by savages, or had chosen to remain
away. Esther would not accept either
of these conclusions. She was firm in
her belief that hs would return.

"Well, she can't go on this way much
longer"
Mrs. Flint gave her opinion with an
air of finality that was entirely con-
yincing to Mrs. Baker on the other side
Of the fence. In fact, Esther Marvin
had for some time furnished topic of
conversation to the inhabitants of the
small New England town.
Time was when it was considered
quite the fashionable thing to send
ones daughter to Miss Marvin's School
for Young Ladies'; but that was some
nine years ago when Miss Marvin's
social position as the daughter Of the
lately deceased judge not only gave
her influence in her own circle, but
served as a sort of lure to those a tritle
lower in the social scale. When the
Judge died, leaving his wife and daugh-
ter nothing after his debts were paid,
but the fine old house on the hill, Es-
Their decided that the best thing she
could do was to convert the big billiard
room into a school room, and try to
make living for her mother and her.
self by utilizing her college education
as a teacher. The change in their for
tunes told heavily on the frail little
mother, who two years later drifted on
to q less material world leaving her
daughter to face the problem alone.
The school prospered, but aside from
her loneliness, Esther had another
problem to face. She was a staunch,
COURAGEOUS soul, and she did not waver.
Before her fathers death Esther had
become engaged to Howard March,.
The alliance had been approved of by
the judge for March was his old
friends nephew, and he believed he
saw in the young man energy and
strength of character sufficient for him
to make an honorable career. Esther
loved him as only such a deep, true
nature can. They were to be married

of merchandise very alertly, and sells

II bet she's got money!" declares
another bystander; but everybody
agrees that if she has money she has
earned it and wishes her good luck
with her days load.
In and out through the throng goes
little boy with a pushcart, loaded with
things to eat. Not far behind him comes
a negro woman with her little boy help
ing her carry the heavy basket; and
she, too, is selling as she goes. You
would not suppose that all the multi
tude of vendors could sell the accumu-
lated horde of sandwiches and pies and
cakes which make up nearly all the
loads, but everywhere the men are buy
ing-the wharf employees, who cannot
leave their work to go out for lunch.
You will see in one place group OF
30 or 40 of them, sitting on long TIM
bers that are lying there, ready for
shipment, all Of them eating with such
looks Of bovine content as many rich
man might well envy as he sits down
to his cut glass and silver and his
stalled OK, with the other accessories.
If you drive on down the line of the
river, you will come to flock of the
little street restaurants, lined up by the
sidewalk. They are mounted on wheels,
seeming to indicate the method in
which they reached that point in the
first place, and in which they might be
moved in case the location were not
found satisfactory.

i3le. There are no tables to straighten
up, no dishes to wash, no napery to
send to the laundry.
Sandwich Of Fried Fish.
An applicant for fried fish appears
on the sidewalk and shoves 10 cents
toward the artist inside; two slices OF
bread with slice of fried fish between
them are showed toward him. There is
no trouble about wrapping the sand
witch, even. The purchaser stands out
side and eats his fried fish sandwich or
sits down on the curb, or walks along,
masticating it at his leisure; and that
is all there is to it. How much less red
tape there is on South Rampant street
than in the more formal restaurants
further down!
It is along the wharf, from end to
end, that the eating places flourish IN
the greatest variety. You will find in
one place a little open shed which has
nestled up against the side or some
larger building. The chef-perhaps a
man, or it may be a woman-stands
hack of the long table and hands out
sandwiches or pies or cakes, according
to the demand, and there are liquid
refreshments of a kind to be had on
request and the payment of denarius.
Men are lined up in front, eating au-
dibly, because it is said that the table
manners at the little wayside eating
shed are not always above reproach.
And as some of them go, much re-
freshed, others come, for there is big
custom for the improvised restaurants
along the river.
There are other restaurants which
may be said to be perambulating, and
which have this advantage-that they
90 to their customers, instead of wait
-frs for the diners to come to them.
Here is a negro with a basket of pies
and cakes. He is very indignant, for he
has been delayed by a crowd that were
intent on eating, it is true, but were
basely intent also on eating on credit.
He gathers up his basket haughtily and
goes his way, remarking, as he goes,
"Nothin' do1n'!" Perhaps he has had
experience in providing meals for peo-
ple who were going to pay for them
next Saturday.

~ Of them so quaint, and wholly
unlike anything in any other city.
To the wanderer along the byways it
will appear in the course of few wan
behring's that very large portion of the
city's population eats in most uncon-
ventional places and unexpected atti-
tudes. It takes it's meals sitting on cot
ton bales, or sacks Of coffee, or on a
friendly step; or it goes about it's
work with sandwich in one hand,
munching contentedly.
The noise and confusion of the
streets confuse it not at all; it pays no
heed to the dust that Sits down upon
it's food, and it brings to the consump-
ton Of it's monday lunch, especially,
happy-go-lucky Indifference that
should enable good digestion to wait on
appetite, and health on both.

ventional meals may be supplied to the

connected with them, but they furnish

in a more or less satisfactory fashion,
and there is no complaint.
