Today, in fact, is the anniversary
the second of March. Three years
ago today 1 found this"-from under
, his cuff he slipped a dainty handker-
chief Of exquisite lace and dropped it
in her lap. II loved it's owner then.
I love her now. 1 have always loved
her. / always shall love her. Every
thing have 1 owe to her."
She picked up the bit of lace, bent
her eyes on it. The warm color had
crept from her cheeks, leaving them,
if he could have seen, as white as
her arms and shoulders-an exquisite,
fine-grained white as pure and as
beautiful as the petals of a milk-white
rose
The act was nearing its close. The
ocean Of melody had touched high tide.
81 am waiting for my answer" he
whispered.
She made no sign that she heard.
"M there's any hope, if I've a ghost
of chance, smile when you look at
me again. You needn't speak. Only
smile.'
Some friends of Mrs. Otis, making
an entr'-acte call, had peeped in her
box to say s'how'do," and Mrs. Otis,
dimpling and gracious and stout (and
watching her daughter from the cor
ner of one eye) stood gossiping with
them few moments in the corridor
entrance.
AS the lights came on Kathleen had
leaned back in her chair, pressed her
lovely shoulders against the cushions
and breathed deeply. Now she very
deliberately walked to the seat her
mother had vacated, and, with her
back partly toward Fitzhugh, she en-
gagged herself in airy conversation
with Artie Sparkle and the third man
Of the party, middle-aged bachelor
named Chickering. Not once had she
glanced Fitzhugh's way. Not once did
she notice his existence.
There is one thing at which even
the most determined of lovers will
stop, and that thing is Indifference.
Indifference raises a wall there is no
scaling.
''Fool! Fool that was ever
to imagine she cared! A girl
like her-What idiOcy"
He determined that when the act
ended he would excuse himself on
some pretext and rush into the streets,
and walk and walk, as he had walked
on this same night three years ago.
He did not look very far beyond
that. Only he repeated to himself
that for him everything was over. All
his ambitions, all his dreams and aspi-
rations had gone for naught. He
thought of Esther.
But all at once he sat up very
straight, and his deep-brooding mel
ancholy slipped away from him. His
sinewy fingers spread, then clenched
quickly-his familiar battle sign. Was
he. Daniel Randolph Fitzhugh, to be
lashed into oblivion by girls indif
ference?
He was not aware act three had
closed until the roar of hand-clapping
apprised him of it. Automatically he
joined in. AS the lights came on he
heard Artie's voice:

Lest We Forget


Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts
says:
ITO punish men for their beliefs is
contrary to the spirit of American in
stitutions and American history. 1t
is right to punish overt acts, but the
only way to deal with beliefs is to
meet them; expose their fallacy, pre-
sent the facts which prove them
wrong. That is the American way.
If there are some of us, including men
in high places, who seem to be for
getting this today, sooner or later
they must return to this principle,
which has never been allowed to sink
out of sight during our whole history"

mended further investigation into sub

immediate relief in that direction was
held out by the experts present but
| the delegates must have recalled the at
tempts TO solve an equally embarrass
ing situation in the years between
1880 and 1855. Those were times in
which the resource OF rags for the
making of paper failed utterly and
straw itself was found too expensive a
material to be utilized As the chem
lists had said their last word, the aid
Of the botanists and agrieulturists was
called in for a round -up of every nat
ural product that could be conceived of
as having within il the potentiality
of paper. Nothing came of that quest.
and the deadlock was broken only
when a practicable method Of turning
wood into pulp was evolved. The new
enterprise was pioneered in this coun-
try by manufacturer AT Stoekbridge,
Mass. and soon after the close of the
Civil war wood pulp paper started on

PROHIBITION HELPS LINENS.
"Soda Jerkers" and Delicatessen Clerks
More Than Offset Barkeepers of Yore.

Prohibition is winning unexpected
advocates among the linen supply
houses of the country. Not that linen
is essentially dry goods proposition
but prohibition is increasing the de-
mand for soda water.
And here is the explanation, accord
ing to Frank j. Hairless, secretary OF
the National Linen association and
president of large Chicago linen sup
ply house: "When prohibition went
into effect the demand for bartenders'
aprons was expected to decrease very
decidedly the demand for linen. But
the enormous increase in the number of
soda fountain and delicatessen stores,
where not only aprons but also coats
and caps are used, has more than com
pensated for the loss due TO the clos
ing of the saloons"
yes" said Thomas b. O'Toole, sec
rotary of the Chicago Laundry associ-
alton, many linen supply houses had
expected to be forced to close down
because 30 per cent or more of their
business was with saloons. The cray
my of the public for drinks of some
Kind or other has saved the day, de-
spite prohibition, by actually increasing
the demand for linens"
Besides that, think of all the persons
who now wear stiff collars instead of
flannel shirts. just because flannel
shirts were once the style for use while
leaning against the old bar, whereas
white collars now are the style for
loafing around the street corners and
leaning against telegraph posts.-Chi-
cago News.

Stambuliusky has told the Associated
Press correspondent.
America and the allies may be as.
sured that we shall maintain order sSnd
quiet and bear our burdens and trials
stoically," he said. I'VE will face the
harsh sentence the peace conference has
imposed upon us with courage and
fortitude and rely upon internal recon
struction and presevering labor to gain
what we have lost in the war Bulgaria
for the moment may be crushed, but
she will rise again with new strength
and be an example to the world of
what patience, industry and national
patriotism can accomplish"
The premier referred to Bulgaria
relations with Greece. Serbia and Ru-
mania. we desire, of course" he said,
"ti live in harmony and good will with
our neighbors. but some of their terri
torial demands are so excessive that
any cordial and enduring relationship
seems well-nigh impossible. How can
our friendship with Greece be perma-
nent while Mr.. Venizelos denies us the
right of seaport on the Aegean? Ard
how can our friendly feeling toward
Rumania be anything more than srti-
fetal and transitorv while she insists
on holding the Southern Dobruria
With our other neghbor, Serbia, we de.
sire to live on the most agreeable
terms; but in the absence Of a perma-
nent government there we have not
been able to take the necessary steps
toward establishing the elements of flu
ture friendship"
Nj. Stambulusky then discussed
Americas participation in the war and
the peace negotiations and lamented
the failure of the peace conference to
apply TO President Wilson's Ia points.
1T was Mr.. Wilson's promise that we
should gain by peace all that We were
striving TO gain by war that caused our
soldiers to lay down their arms and
to capitulste to the great powers. But
what did the peace conference doy II
trsmpled under foot all. the high prin-
ciples which your president had enunci-
sted. And Bulgaria was thus com
pletely misled.
However. with all the tremendous
burdens that have been imposed upon
us by the allies" Mr.. Stambuliusky
concluded, I'VE have not lost hope. / /

world is in a process Of regeneration |

its rejection of the treaty and en-
dorses the principle of an international
peace concert in harmony with Amer

After impatiently marking time all
day for the resolutions committee TO
complete its work, the tired convention
received with cheers the reading of the
platform by Senator Watson of Indi-
ana, the committee chairman and
adopted it with great chorus of
cheers. 1t nearly drowned out mi.

BERMUDA'S TERCENTENARY.
Will Be Celebrated This Autumn
Prince of Wales to Visit.

| Hamilton, Bermuda, June ll.-Ber-
muda, the oldest remaining British
plantation, is preparing to celebrate
its tencentenry this autumn, for
| which purpose $4,000 have been up
propriated. Since the prince of Wales
announced the other day that he meant
to pay a call on his loyal subjects,
they hit on the scheme of combining
two festive occasions and having one
grand affair on Oct. Z, when the Re-
nown, with the heir TO the throne on
board, is to cast anchor here.
1t was Aug. |, 1920, that the Colo
NAL Parliament held its first sitting,
but as the royal engagements cannot
very well be altered, it was thought
wise to set back the gala date.
For nearly SEQ years the business of
governing this little outpost of the en-
pire has gone on under the same forms
without material change. II is but
natural that the 10000 inhabitants of
this 80 square miles of coral rock should
wish TO honor their aged constitution.
Originally founded by shipwrecked
company under Sir George Somers, des-
tined for Virginia in 1909, the islands
have remained continuously under Brit
ish rule.
Revenues are raised chiefly from tar.
if duties. No land taxes are levied
by the colony. There is very light
tax on realty in the parishes and the
proceeds are used for maintenance of
the poor.
There are no divorce laws in Ber-
muda and only one breach of promise
case was ever tried here. Most of the
cases on the calendar involve bicycle
stealing, assault, petty theft; there is
little serious crime, though in re-
gion where everyone rides wheel the
theft of bicycle is regarded somewhat
as horse stealing was in the West a
few years ago,
There are old-timers here who have
never set ewes on a train or trolley
car; but of late they have had the sat |
isfaction of seeing flying boats circling |
through the air.
Innovations Of any kind are apt TO
be looked on with some suspicion. The
ma iority is conservative and that is |
perhaps why so much sentiment is at
tsched to the coming celebration of the
800 year old constitution.
