The local authorities on Mon
day night last. at a special meeting,
passed resolution calling upon all
citizens to cooperate with the City
Council in an cndeavOr to stamp out
tho influenza. The request comes
in the nature Of suggestion that
all persons wear gauze masks over
the mouth and nose these masks
to be saturated with some recog-
nized and standard disinfectant or
germicide to be recommended by a
physician in active practice of his
profession. This measure taken Is
democratic in form---a reasonable
request. Cheerful and ready compli-
ance by the citizens OF the town will
obviate the necessity Of passing an
ordinance compelling the use of this
means Of preventing disease and Of
allaying the epidemic now raging in
the State. Remember that "an ounce
of prevention is worth a pound Of
cure" and comply gracefully and
promptly with this wise and reason
able request.

them now-to-night."
His voice was a caress, and that sem
tence, belonged to me-" always made her
heart beat with its pictured possibilities
Oh how she loved him! Could anything
else in the world really matter while he
could sit there and she could feel his pres
ence and hear his tender words?
And so they talked awhile. and then they
looked up and surveyed the scene. Josiah
had been joined by Sir Patrick, and they
were earnestly conversing by the fireplace.
One or two pairs sat about on the sofas;
but the general company showed signs of
focking of to the bridge-tables, which
were laid out in another drawing-room be-
yond. And the couples joined them grad
ually. until only Lord Wensleydown and
Morella Winmarleigh remained near and
watched them with mocking eyes.
Hector had never before realized that
Morella could have so much expression in
her face How could he ever have thought
under any conceivable circumstances, even
at the end OF his life, 1t would be possible
to marry her! How thankful he felt he
had never paid her any attention, or from

amid mOcking filters of mirth.
Then anger burned in Theodora's gentle
soul. They were talking about Josiah, of
course, and turning him into ridicule. She
wondered what would be the best to do.
She was too far away to attempt to join in
the conversation, or to be even able to
swear she had heard Alright, although there
was no doubt in her own mind about it.
So she sat perfectl.- still on her great
sofa, her hands folded in her lap, while
two bright spots Of wild rose flushed her
cheeks. She did not even pick up a book
There she sat like an alabaster statue and
most of the women were conscious Of the
exquisitely beautiful picture she made.
They could not stand in this packed
group all the time, the whole dozen or
more of them, and they gradually broke
up into twOs and threes about the large
room. They were delightfully."- friendly
with one another, and all seemed in the
best Of spirits and tempers. Most of them
had no Interior motive in their behavior to
Theodore; it was merely the feeling that
they were not the hostess and responsible.
II was none of their business II Ada neg
lected her guests, and they all knew plenty
The Washington times., 1918-08-04

"You are a naughty. stupid fellow. Jo-
siah, and Of course you must pay the losses
of both sides to make up for being such
a wicked thing" and she patted his shoul-
ders and smiled her gentle smile at the
angry lady. as though they were children
playing for counters or sweetss and the
twenty pounds was a nothing TO her hus-
band, as indeed it was not. Josiah would
cheerfully have paid a hundred to finish
the unpleasant scene. He was intensely
grateful to her-grateful for her thought
for him and for her public caress.
And the lady was so. surprised at the
turn affairs had taken that she said no
more, and. allowing him to pay without too
great protest. meekly suggested another
rubber. But Josiah was not to be caught
again. He rose. and. saying good night,
followed his wife and Lord Bracondale
into the saloon.

eyes wandered over the scene when Lady
Ada had to go back to her place.
Tell me what you are thinking Of:
said Hector, in her ear.
81 was thinking" she answered. ''it is
so interesting to watch peoples faces. 1t
seems to ME so queer way to spend ones
time, the whole of ones intelligence set
upon a game of cards and few pieces of
money for hours and hours together"
They don't look attractive, do they?"
he laughed.
NO. they look haggard. and worried. and
old" she said Even the young ones look
old and watchful, and so intent and SOL
emn."
Lady Harrowfield had been losing heav-
ily. and a deep mauve shade glowed
through all her paint. She was a pad loser
and made all at her table feel some Of her
chagrin and wrath. In fact, candidates
for the light of her smile found it advis-
able to let her win when things became too
unpleasant.
There was a dreary silence over the
room, broken by the scoring and remarks
upon the games. and those who were out
wandered into the saloon beyond. where
iced drinks of all sorts were awaiting the
weary.
Every one must enjoy themselves how
they can. of course" said Theodore. ut
is absurd to try and make any one else
happy in ones own way. but oh, hope
I shall not have to pass the time like that,

The voices became raised at the table
where Josiah sat. He had made some gross
mistake in the game and his partner was
being fretful over it. Her complaints
amounted to real rudeness when the count
ing began. She had lost twenty pounds
on this rubber, all through his last foolish
play. she let it be known
Josiah was angry with himself and
deeply humiliated. He apOlogized as well
as he could, but to no purpose with the
wrathful dame
Thus Theodore slipped behind his chair.
laid her hand upon his shoulder in what
was almost caress, and said, in a sweet
and playful voice:

at the angry lady,

stood the picture they saw, of the beauti-
full, little, strange lady seated alone, while
the other women chatted together in
groups.
Hector was feeling irritated and excited,
and longing to get near Theodore tie
guessed Lord Wensleydown would have the
same deS:re and had no intention of being
interfered with. He felt he could not bear
to spend an evening watching the little
brute daring to lean over her. He should
kill him. or commit some violence, he knew.
Thus prudence. which at another time
would have held him-would have made
him remember what was best for her
among this crowd of hostile wOmen-flew
to the winds He must go to her-must
show her he loved and would protect her,
and, above all, that he would permit no
other man to usurp his place.
And Theodore, who had been suffering
silently a miserable feeling of loneliness
and neglect, felt her heart bound with JOY
at the sight of his loved, familiar face, and
she welcomed him more warmly than she
had ever done before.
Have these demons of women been
odious TO you, darling?" he whispered,
hardly conscious of the term OF eDdear-
ment he had used. "Do not mind them; II
is only jealousy because you are so beau
tiful and young"
"They have not been anything at all"
she said, softly; they have just left me
alone and kept to themselves, and-and
laughed at Josiah, and that has made me
very angry, because-what has he done to
them?"

selves: who are these people? We
don't want any strangers Incorporating
on our preserves. And what perfect
clothes! and what pearls! Why on earth
did Ada ask them"
And soon the party was complete, and
Theodore found herself going in to dinner
with her cousin Pat, who arrived upon the
scene at the very last minute, having come
from oxford by late train.
Mildred had taken care that neither
Lord Wensleydown nor Hector should be
anywhere near Theodore. She had Sc
cured Lord Bracondale for herself, and did
her best all through the repast to fasci-
nate him.
And while he answered gallantly and
paid her the grossest compliments, she
knew he was laughing in his sleeve all the
time. and it made her venom rise higher
and higher
Patrick Fitzgerald, the younger, was a
dissipated, vicious youth, with his
mothers faded coloring and none of the
Fitzgerald charm. How infinitely her
father surpassed any of the family she
had seen yet, Theodore thought
She did not enjoy her dinner. The
youths conversation was not interesting
But it was not until the ladies left the
dining room that her real penance began.
1t seemed as if all the women crowded
to one end of the drawing room round
Lady Harrowfield, and talked and whis-
pered to one another, not one making way
for Theodore or showing any knowledge
of her presence. Barbara had gone off up
to her room. She was too frightened OF
Mildred to disobey her, and she felt she
would rather not be there to see their
hateful ways to the dear, little, gentle
cousin whom she thought she could love so
much.
Theodore subsidized on a sofa, wondering
to herself if these we're the manners of
the great world in general. She hoped
not; but although no human creature
could be quite happy under the circum-
stances, she was not greatly distressed
until she distinctly caught the name OF
Mr. Brown" from the woman Josiah had
taken in, amid burst of laughter, and saw
