Courtesy In The Home.

If the question were put sud-
denly to you or me, "Are you a
polite and kindly person."
We should probably answer,
"Why, yes, with a little sense
of affront at the thought that
we could possibly be consider
ed anything else than polite
and kindly.
And we probably are both
to the stranger and the casual
acquaintance and the friend.
But do we carry our civility in
to our own family circle?
We are not speaking of di-
rect incivility and rudeness.
That does not enter into the
question. But is our family
life based upon essential cUur-
tesy and kindness?
We are supposedly sur
rounded in our homes with the
people whom we love best in
the world. II is for them that
we work and toll and sacrifice.
Their well being is worth more
to us than our own. If trouble
or illness threaten them our
day is darkened.
Yet is it not true that we
often fail to accord them the
little courtesies of everyday
lite which we would show to
the stranger within or without
our gates? Do we give them
the few words of kindly APP
probation which would mean
so much to them? Do we not
sometimes prefer them care
less Encouragement and crit
icism which may some day
come back to us with the force
of a blow?
Suppose we hold a little pri-
vate conference with ourselves
over these questions. Let us
each-and this means you and
me-carry our outdoor cour-
tesies and thoughtfulness into
the homeland we shall find
out what a place of radiance
and charm that home may be.

A MIXED LOT.

In Glasgow, Scotland. the instica-
tor Of the labor trouble was Emman-
uel Spinwell, a bolshevist Of Russian
or Polish nationality. He represents
British instinct and principle about
as much as an Eskimo reflects the
ideal Of a Monaghan.
In Belfast "a human curiosity of the
same nationality named Simon Green
sphon preached the same eccentric
gospel as Emmanuel and was the NOV
ing spirit Of the industrial unrest
which a Russian revolutionary tour
ing the mining districts Of South
Wales did his utmost-and with con-
siderable success-to convince a
thrifty population that thrift was
criminal
These three mental perverts con-
Quoted their respective crusade in de-
fiance of organized labor rather than
in conformity with its behests. They
preached a revolt against the author
ity Of the unions. Their mission was
to destroy the struction of organized
labor and capital at the same time,
but what they were to set up in place
Of these two is not determined
In other words, they preached the
destruction of wealth, and offered
nothing to replace it with but univer-
sal poverty.
No one who has not lived in Eng
land knows how bolshevism seethes
in the foreign quarters of all the large
towns, and particularly in the London
ghetto. For many years it has been
one of England's boasts that every
kind of refugee is welcome in Great
Britain, and as a result the type Of
degenerate that cannot pass the Ellis
Island tests at New York has been
breeding throughout the British Isles
for over half n century.
If we do not profit by this lesson
we do not deserve to. We have been
admitting a miscellaneous collection
of immigrants for fifty years, and
many Of them are our very bone and
sinew. And many are not. 1t is
more by luck than good judgment
that so much vitality has been added
to us by immigration. 1t is time to
close the gate.
Major Monson NORRIS Of the Three
Hundred and Sixty Ninth Field Ar
tillery was Commandant of an Amer
lean prison camp at Richeheu, France
and had charge Of S32 German pris-
oners. His description of them is
pointed, unpreiudiced, but not polite.
And what should give us food for
thought is his intimation that most of
them had decided to come 10 Amer
lea after the War And there is no
legislation yet framed to keep them
out.
At the risk of seeming inhospitable
we must put up the bars both against
the crack Drained bolshevist and the
Prussian junker. II we have not jobs
enough to go round among ourselves,
We should certainly not share them
with malignants who are ready to rob
US of our property and our liberty at
the same time.

CHAPTER XVII.

In the course of a few wretched
days Clay picked up some of the facts
about Daphne's presence in Wether-
ellis fatal car. He was more furious
at her than ever and more incapable
Of hating her.
He saw Bayard often, but Bayard
knew little and said less. One after
noon he invited Clay to ride with him
to the hospital, whence Leila was to
graduate. He warned Clay not to be-
tray how shocked he would be at Lei
las appearance, which, he said, was
a wonderful improvement on what it
had been.
She was, indeed, a mere shell, and
Clay was not entirely successful with
his compliments.
Leila sighed: "Much obliged for
your good intentions. I'm a mere
sack of bones, but I'm going to get
well. The doctors say that if take
care of myself every minute and 20

cried, with perfect chivalry. 'The
money is rolling in and I'd rather
spend it on you than on anybody else. -
1.-The moneys rolling out just as
fast as it rolls in," Leila sighed. "The
Lord seems to provide a new expense
for every streak of luck. And that's
my middle name-Expense.'
She had actually learned one lesson,
That was a hopeful sign.
Clay sought Daphne in her odious

BUDDHA IN PLACE OF GOD
Eastern Leaders Shrewd Attempt to
Stem the Onward March of Chris
tianity in East.

1amanaka was a strong Buddhist
and leader in the movement to re-
vive and reform Buddhism and estab-
lish it as bulwark against the rapid
encroachment of Christianity.
He decided an excellent way to do
this was to found a school for girls
which would be more attractive than
the Christian women's. So he erected
fine buildings and installed modern
methods. He hired good teachers. All
the paraphernalia of the best western
schools was taken over In fact, the
curriculum was about as close as it
could be to that of the Christian school
not far away. Buddhism was a prom
inent feature Of the institution-not
the old-fashioned Buddhism. but the
new form which has borrowed from
Christianity, even down to the Sunday
school hymns. The girls were taught
to sing the famous old Christian
hymns with only the word Buddha sub
sttuted for that of Christ

tOriety drives her away" A little
blush Of shame fickered in Daphne's
pale cheeks a moment and went out.
She sighed: II suppose Mr.. Duane
has stopped that check, too-if he ever
sent 1t. Oh, dear!"
Then a nurse knocked; brought in
q card growing in large little aza-
lea tree. Daphne scanned it. "Mr.
Thomas Varick Duane!" She peered
closer at the pencilings and read
aloud: "T just learned. I'm heart
broken. Isn't there anything / can
dor"
Daphne felt as If outraged society
had forgiven her.
isn't he a darling?" she murmured.
Mrs. Chivvis begrudged a stingy,
swell, of course" She had the poor
folks conscientious scruples against
want to see him, presume"
But Daphne had had enough Of evil
appearance. "See him here? Never !"
She glared at poor Mrs. Chivvis with
a reproof that was excruciating to ac-
cept and ordered her to go down and
meet Mr.. Duane and incidentally learn
about the check. Business is busi-
ness" she said.
Mrs. Chivvis descended in all the
confusion Of a Puritan wife meeting
a Cavalier beau. She came back later
10 say that Mr. Duane was really very
nice, and spoke beautifully and had
sent the check and would send an
other If Daphne wished it, and would
make old Mrs. Romilly go on with the
order, and would she like some spe-
cial fruits or soups or something? He
was really very nice.
Daphne eyed her with ironic horror
and said, "You've been flirting with
MIN and me so helpless here"
"Daph !-nee!! Kip!!!" Mrs. Chiv.
Wis screamed. The only count thrust
she could think of was, "And what
does Mr.. Wimburn say?"
This sobered Daphne. Why had

he was a soldier and loved a good
counter-attack. He smiled as he
squirmed. Wetherell was avenged
when his successor signed new con-
tracts at higher price than he had
made. The changing times changed
everything; yesterdays exorbitance

Where've you been, Clay? But wait

When she led him into her new en-
porium the graceful fabrics displayed
were all red rags to him. He was a
bull in a crimson shop.
Daphne made Clay sit down and
asked him if it were not all perfectly
lovely. He waited until Mrs. Chivvis
went on to the workroom. He had a
glimpse of a number of girls and
wome on sewing bent. They were
laughing and chattering.
He answered, Its perfectly loath-

Instead Of resenting this insult
Daphne laughed till she fell against
the counter. The worst of it was that
her eyes were so tender.
Where did you get all the capital
for all this stock?" Clay demanded,
with sudden suspicion.
"Oh, part of it we bought en- credit
and part of it on borrowed money"
Borrowed from whom?"
"From Mr.. Duane"
This was too much Of too much.
Clay stormed: 'I'll get himl"
"Oh, no, you won't"
"Oh, yes, will !"

"Then step out on the walk" said
Daphne. you're soaring away Gus.

firm. The boudoir is no place for YOU,
anyway"
A young woman with a bridal eye
walked in and Daphne left Clay to
blunder out sheepishly. He did not
see that she cast sleeps eyes after
him. He was a most bewildered
young man. He had made a pile of
money and still he was not happy!

CHAPTER XVI.

Leila was determined to endure
everything that might be necessary to
regain her beauty. She would 90
through any ordeal of knives or plas-
ter casts or splints or medicines for
that. She was quite grim about it.
Her resolution extended to the spend
Ing OF as much of Bayard's money as
might be necessary on surgeons fees
and doctors bills. If she bankrupted
Bayard 1t would be with the tenderest
motives.
Five times she went to the operat-
Ing table, made that Internal journey
Into etherland, knowing what after
anguishes waited her. what retching
and burning and bleeding. She braved
death again and again, took long
chances with covering bravado. And
all for Bayard's sake.
One morning when Bayard reached
his office after a narrowing all-night
vigil at Leila's side he was just falling
asleep over the first mail when his
telephone snarled. He reached for It
with alarm. A voice doomed in his
ear:
"Ah you thah?"
"Yes."

Then a growl replaced the boom. q
