The Accent to Mars.

When MT. Robert Hervey Randolph. alias Slim Hervey, chauffeur, vice Pat rick O'Reilly, ex-driver of the Village Cab company's No. 1898, skidded that vehicle disastrously to the curb in front of the Poppy club and, as a re- suit of his criminal negligence, in con- junction with Miss Imogene Pamela Thornton's reprehensible peeking oc- cupation, hurled that young lady to the middle of the sidewalk on her hands and knees, he leaped from his seat on a spontaneous impulse to help her to her feet and administer every kind of first comfort that the occasion seemed to demand.
 Two considerations, however, shot from the double-barreled blunderbuss sf Ridicule and Honor, caught him on the wing, as 1t were, and defected ks flight from west to east with a sharp turm due south at the corner of FsStS 7SSvsltk street and Sixth avenue. s sG Grst place, out of the corner of

 Pamela sat up straight again. q want to understand you," she said with a sudden dignity that in- creased MT. Milyuns' admiration, al- ! ready decidedly on the upgrade. You mean that, with my appearance, MT. Randolph's entire income completely disappears?"
 Mr. Milyuns nodded.
 You have guessed 1t in one," he said fiippantly.
 'T don't need ten thousand dollars year." said Pamela promptly. "You will please tell MT. Randolph that I shall only take half" MT. Milyuns smiled.
 "I'lI try to carry out your orders" he said blandly, "but I'll have to find MT. Randolph first. Let me add that you apparently don't know the young gentleman very we'll"
 "What do you mean by that?" asked Pam.
 "Well," said MT. Milyuns, taking an- other scrap of paper from his pocket and handing 1t to her, read that. It was left at my house this morning by a taxi-cabman, who didn't wait for an answer You see that Mir. Randolph has handed over to you in perpetuity this apartment, Tomlinson, and all the other i1xings. 1t doesn't look very much as though he intended to come back in the near future"
 'rBut I want him tol" cried Pam. 'T-Pve been expecting him. I didn't half-haIf thank him for-for-" Tears of disappointment clogged her throat.
 "There, there !" said Mir. Milyuns. leaning over and batting her hand "I understand just how you feel, because Bob Is one of the straightest, openest, most lovable young devils that ever went his own way through a delighted world"
 1 Pamela nodded her head up and down in silent confirmation of all those kind words. She began to like MT. Milyuns. She raised pleading eyes to his face.
 Wont you please find him for meT
 My dear" said MT. Milyuns, so proznn+lg 4Leat te che he'd asked for the house and lot on the northwest corner of Fifth avenue and F1fty-seventh street, he would have promised it to her before he could stop himself.

 The bird-man smiled.
 ''We'll see about that" he said. "Pm sorry you don't remember me. If you are indeed Miss Imogene Pamela Thornton, I used to take you on my knee often, many years ago."
 Pamela could no longer be startled by such announcements.
 "That's what Tomlinson said this morning." she remarked. "Ever since last night, everybody meet seems to ito know my real name. don't un- derstand it."
 "Please trust me-" said MT. Milyuns, land you'll soon understand a lot more than that" He drew a slip from his pocket. "Now, do answer me careful ly. Tell me the addresses of the first four places you and Maggie lived in after your father died"
 "I can't remember the first" said ] Pam, but, after a seconds thought. rattled off the names of three streets, and located addresses approximately by describing nearby corners promi- nent to a child's mind for one reason or another. Those are the next three," she said. After that, we vent"
 But Mir. Milyuns was satisfied. That's enough for formalities, my . dear. I'm convinced that you are the 1 person for whom the firm of Milyuns, 1 Branch & Milyuns has been searching for years. Do you remember your great-uncle, Asa Thorntonw
 "Yes," said Pamela, a vague wonder and terror in her eyes; "but I didn't know he was real"
 "Didn't know he was realP" ex- claimed Mir. Mflyuns. What do you meanr'
 Maggie used to say" explained Pamela, If you're not good, your great-uncle, Asa Thornton, will catch you, and he hasn't cut his finger nails since your poor father married your dear mother.'" Pamela shuddered.
 "You'1l have to forget all that" said MT. Milyuns soberly. Before your great-uncle died, he repented very ef. fectively of the way he treated your father, and left you an income of ten thousand dollars year."
 Pamela sat up very straight, and then sank slowiy into the pillows st her back.

his eye he had seen hIs one-time friends, Mir. Nearton, Mir. verries and Mir. Berry descending the shallow club front steps in an avalanche; in the second place, he suddenly recollected that Miss Thornton was an heiress, high above his present station and intent, as he had gathered from. be- tween the lines In various advertise ments in the local press referring to the location of his person, on thank ing and otherwise recompensing him for turning to the right in a matter of ten thousand dollars a year, un- earned increment. &
 AS he gazed for one too brief second down into the pleading eyes and ador- ably eager face of this lovable vision on her hands and knees, which 1t seemed unbelievable he had once held in his arms, only the oft-repeated favorite poem of his nurse: Hf
 I could not love thee, dear, SO much
 Loved not honor more,
 kept him from facing the avalanche of ridicule and giving the eternally searching Diogenes with his lantern run for his money. As previously stated, 1t was not to be. Mir. Ran dolph turned from the waiting arms of the sweetest temptation ever re- niged by man and made his swift way to the sanctum of MT. Tourke o'Shaughnessy, foreman-manager of the Village Cab company.

emptled anu put down her cup, '1ets forget the sheer romance of the situa- tion, my dear, and get down to prac- tical problems. The first of all things, as you must realize, is the necessity of getting you a companion. Would you care to be our guest In Madison avenue until you can pick one out7"
 'T would put clothes ahead of housecat," murmured Eileen.
 Her mother ignored the remark and kept her eyes fixed on Miss Thornton's perplexed face. That young lady seemed in no lack of something to say but rather in search of words and the plunging courage necessary to the say ing. She drew long breath and deliv- cred herself of the following:
 Really, it's most awfully kind of you, but, as I told Mir. Milyuns, Tom linson Is such a dear that I am going to continue him as my companion" 'Tomlinson r" exclaimed Mrs. Mil yuns, and then smiled indulgently for the first time during the interview, be- ing under the impression that at last she had run into something appropri- ately naive in the bearing of her new charge. "Of course you can keep him on, but you must realize that you can't Hive here without a woman in the house."
 "Oh, yes, can," said Miss Thornton, a little breathlessly. 'T have a feel | ing-1 can't explain 1t exactly-that this apartment is one-woman setting. As said to MT. Milyuns, I don't want to clutter 1t with females"
 A silent laugh crept into the eyes of the marblesque Eileen; something in- side of her sat up and took notice. She glanced round the room and mur- mured:
 Mother, she's absolutely right. I'm for her"
 "'Rightr Eileenl" exclaimed Mrs. Milyuns, flushing in her indignation at | finding traitor in the home camp. "I don't know what your generation is coming to. The impossible Is never right"
 Having taken up her suave cudgel, Eileen was in no haste to lay 1t down, and may it be pointed out right here | that Miss Imogene Pamela Thornton had the rare faculty of enlisting the nearest bystander to assume her bat ties for her, thenceforth becoming a charmingly interested onlooker, ready to watch the tide of her own fortune from the vantage-point of an entirely | impersonal detachment.
 That's where you slipped, mother" continued the quite unruffied Eileen. "There's nothing impossible to our generation. Impossibilities are our food drink and raiment. We're like those surprising orchid things that de- fy the usual laws and live on air"
 "Yes," remarked Mrs. Milyuns; "any new air. But didn't bring you here, Eileen, to be a stumbling-block toto Pamela, who is suddenly faced with problems in the solution of which she 1 deserves our sympathetic assistance" Y You've hit the nall on the head again, mother" parrled Eileen.

Pamela ac- cepted Mir. Milyuns' silent invitation and seated herself, but tentatively, as though she could only stay for min ute. #
