The Girl at Brenta's.

With a book on South America
propped up against the pepper-sauce
bottle, absorbing my attention to a
detriment Of the dinner, did not see
her until she had taken seat at
table near by and had been left to
herself by the waiter. Then her face
came before my eyes as they glanced
up from the end Of page.
Brenta's was an Italian restaurant
that had not been discovered. and Its
patrons were almost entirely Latin.
Among these were many OF the ex-
IRENE brunette type, but the girl be.
fore me was ultra-brunette and, unless
my guess was wrong, not Latin.
Her hair and eyes were the living
black of the crows wing. taking color
only to emphasize their blackness.
Her skin was the faintest shade OF
copper, as though the fairness OF pink
and white had been sun-kissed to TAM
and the color behind II came and
went. varying its shade through the
most translucent covering. She was
a brunette OF delicate pigments In
tensely refined; the effect Of night
with stars.
She looked up and caught my eyes
above the book. Long lashes OF Jet

me great ebon irises almost obliterat'
ing the white. Above were brows that
curved like penciled tracing. The
nose was delicate, thin ridged. tri

perfect form, too rich coloring. Such
exquisite shape and glow. were al

was troubled. There was the signal OF
trouble in her pose. her face. her eyes.
In one glance of trained observation,
saw her marvellous beauty and read
the tokens of distress.
My book became shield behind
which observed this one. lone girl.
She was evidently a stranger there,
for others of the regular patrons were
gazing her way, some without the
grace TO hide their stares. She was
as certain of scrutiny as a beautiful
wild bird. and her timidity was the
same. She was unused to the obvious
admiration, the looks OF manifest ap-
probation. Her sensitiveness recoiled
from this wordless approval

GRADE CROSSING
 IN FRANCE GIVES
 DRIVERS TROUBLE

SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE.-If the average American army chauf- feur were asked What is the big gest nuisance in France?" he would in ninety-nine cases out of hundred reply with the greatest promptness, "The grade crossing"
 There are thousands of grade crossings on every railway in France, and every one of them is protected by set of gates, which drop into position long before a train gets near the spot, and apparently remain there long after the train has passed.
 Many an army chauffeur, taking his fill of speed along a straight, lined national road, has found his way suddenly barred by an ag- gravating pair of crossing gates. The war trains of France are long and heavy laden, and seem to take an interminable time in passing the given point.
 But after the American becomes reconciled to these delays, he begins to find the passing trains an inter- esting study. The traffic which they carry is always a picture of wartime activity which the Ameri- can particularly takes a delight in analyzing.
 Ponderous, grooming ammunition trains, with two giant locomotives hissing at every joint, lumber along with food for the ravenous guns Supply trains rattle past, carrying with unfailing regularity the soldiers daily bread. Reinforcement trains are crammed to overflowing with smiling Tommies or bronzed and war worn poilus, sitting on foot boards, sometimes clustered on the roof, for the travelling soldier of every na- tionality has a contempt for railway bylaws and regulations.
 Then there are the trains coming back from the battlefield, carrying the wreckage of war, often battle scared themselves. Occasionally a flat-car grunting under the weight of a disabled cannon and muddy, shell-shattered lorries, wagons, field kitchens, and the like, and now and then an ambulance train with it's bandaged passengers and ministering nurses. The French crossing gates usually run back and forth on wheels. It is usually woman who opens and closes them. Sometimes an old woman and sometimes a young one She has little box-house at the side of the track, with sometimes a baby in a cradle to occupy her leisure time. Always she has a smile and quick word of greeting for the importunate motorist
