father, whose estates had been raw
aged, led him to enlist, though he need
not have, for he was not French. He
rose rapidly from common soldier to
lieutenant; his dashing disregard of
danger won HON, too, the Croix de
Guerre. He seemed immune to injury.
In the second battle Of the Marine,
when his mother and Chichi were at
Biarritz on the seashore, Julio met on
the battlefield his German cousin.
They fought and as they strained in
deadly combat, a high-explosive shell
plunged near and pulled out their
lives. To Desnoyers and to Marguer-
ite the disappearance of Julio never
was explained, othe rthan by conjec-
ture.
Yet in Marguerite the spirit OF
Julio's love persisted. 1t steeled her
to go through with her loseless life
as Laurier's wife. He was blind from
his wounds; and for Marguerite it was
better so. He could not see the look
in her eyes.
She felt that 1t was her share to car
ry on with the burden Of duty to a
husband she could never love, as
Julio had gone forth to battle for a
country that never, in spite of its
tragic plight, could be so near to him
as his own.
After peace came Desnoyers and
Tchenoff visited the spot where julio
had given phis life. 1t was desolate,
but there was no fighting now.
1.-THE angel of peace" said Desncy-
ers, has driven off the Four Horse
men,"
Tchernoff shook his head. For a
time," he admitted, 'rbut they will ride
again."
And he quoted: "And power was
given to them over the fourth part of
the earth, to kill with sword, and with
hunger, and with the beasts Of the
earth"

not easily conjectured. It came as
abruptly as a blow from behind. The
old man, investigation proved, left no
will. The money was divided between
the two families; and like homing pig
cons, Desnoyers and his German
brother-in-law by marriage sought
their fatherlands.
In France, Julios father bought n
flashw house in Paris and a chateau
in the browsing valley of the Marine,
furnished them with a prodigal lavish
ness: the walls almost literally were
papered with art treasures and troci-
ties.
Once the TRANSPORTATION was past,
Julio settled back into much the same
life he had led in South America. True,
he took studio and played at paint
ing; but his best work was done at
night, when he set heartily to painting
Paris very red indeed. He was ont
quite thoughtless, however. His good
ness fheartt prompted his sharing
his luxurious quarters with penuri-
GUS Spaniard, Argensola; and his
mind was sufficiently mature to en-
terrain with interest, If not with SYM
pathy, the sombre philosophy OF
Tchernoff, Russian who lived above
him.
Youth must find love, and Chichi
and Julio were no exceptions to this
rule. Their discoveries were Of differ
ent sorts, however; Chichis a boy
and-girl romance with Rene, young
Frenchman who adored her with an
almost pathetic intensity; where
Julio's was with Marguerite Laurier,
the wife of a friend of his fathers. An
unhappy victim of marriage ar
ranged in the Continental fashion,
Marguerite's was no unusual dilemma.
She actively disliked her husband;
and when a woman is in that situation
and there is nearby a younger man,
especially one with the graces and
the satyr-like fervor Of Julio, the out
come is inevitable. They dancedto-
gether a great deal in restaurants, for
Paris wa sthen tango-mad. She came
to his studio many times one too
many, in fact, for at Laurier surprised
the two lovers.
War, like gigantic shears, shipped
both Chlchi's and Julio's affairs. Rene
was called to his regiment; and Laur-
Ter, too-the latter demand preventing

Million Dollar Screen Masterpiece TX
BE Seen Here Next Week
At the Washington
Theater.

The Four Horsemen Of the Apoc-
alypse" to be shown at the Washing
ton Theater next week, is the great
est picture OF modern times.
The story in short follows:
Madariaga could gaze from his
rancho across limitless stretches of
waving grass to the farthest hilltop,
gallop the long way to that hilltop and
gaze again, and have surveyed only
his own estate. He was one OF the
great landholders of the Argentine,
baronial in his power over the many
distinies OF those who worked his pos
sessions, fabulously wealthy, ruling
his domain with a rough kindness and
blunt justice.
| And having wrested from the earth
an emperor's riches, Madariaga be-
came consumed with one big and
, simple longing: for a son to be his
heir. But 1t went unsatisfied. His
two children were girls. Luisa and
Elena. This adverse stroke was fol-
lower a score of years later by an
other: Elena ran away with German
employed on the estate, man her
father did not like; nor would he
choose any one of Elena's boys to in
herit his fortune. Like their father,
they were tow-headed, bespectacled; ;
their child-minds were forced to pre-
cocity In the dollhouse of deficiency.
So when Luisa, the other daughter, the
wife OF Desnoyers, Frenchman, gave
birth to a handsome, dark-eyed manly
little boy. Madariagas exultation ran
amuck
He gave Julio, this dashing young
ster, all he had missed in his youth:
much money and more freedom; and
he gave him also to understand that
the measureless plantations some day
would be Julio's. The grandson took
we'll to II. He became a celebrity In
the Argentina ntango places, where
adventure may mean the soft caress
OF a warm cheek or the cold sting OF
stilletto. His 1.-the strength and
grace got him known as the best dan
Ger nthe cafes; his courage and
hardness in fight protected him IN
the brawls born OF jealousy.
