Nineteen had seemed old then. She

be only so much older, so much more

And Peter was there then, was COM

That engagement might as easily

PLAYER FORCED TO PROTEST
London Ladies So Annoyed Pianist
That He Was Compelled to Voice
His Grievance.

London has been amused by the
publication of the notice that Mr..
Pouishnoff the Russian pianist now
playing there, has had to paste on his
front door, begging people in general,
aR pa the ladies' II. particular, to leave
him alone. "Mr Pouishnoff," the no
tice runs, "begs politely to inform
these ladies who derive pleasure from
calling unlimited on well-known mu-
sicians that he has no social qualifi-
cations whatever, and that except for
his pianistic art he Is the most unin-
steresting of men. He will be extreme
ly grateful IL he is allowed to live the
peaceful life of a bachelor hermit"
1t seems that he is besieged by peo-
ple-mostly young ladies-who not
only want autographs, but want him
to play for them. Every public man
who has been pestered in this way
will applaud Mr.. Pouishnoff for his
reply: IF you want to hear me play,
my recitals are always open to you.'

about the garden. Immediately he
seemed to regain self-control. I'm

He had taken her hands, and they
were looking distressedly and sober
ly at each other when an unexpected
noise made them step quickly apart.
Cherry's heart beat madly with ter
rOr, and Peter flushed deeply.
1t was Martin Lloyd's aunt, Mrs.
North, their old neighbor, who came
about the corner of the house, and
approached them nmilingly. How much
had she seen? Cherry asked herself,
in panic. What were they doing?
what were they saying as she ap-
peared?-how much had their atti-
tude betrayed them?
Mrs. North was the same loud
laughing, cheerful woman as of old.
She kissed Cherry, and was full of
queries for Martin.
Durango? Belle told me some
thing about his going there" she said.
"How long you been here, Cherry?"
1--WE been with Alix and Peter for
for several weeks" Cherry said un-
easily. Her eyes met Peters and he
conveyed reinsurance to her with a
look.

North asked, with 50 shrewd a glance

In the American Forum

CT HE Irish Free state?" exclams Mrs
MacSwincy, with a questioning lift OF
voice and eyebrows-'why there is no such
thing But there is, ii appears. an Amer
lean Free State. into the borders of which
any European quarrel may be dragged with
out the slightest sense of intrusion or in
appropriateness and with the most serene
assurance that the people will listen patient

which they have no proper concern. The
view of some OF our visitors seems to be
that the last place on earth in which to
settle the Irish question is ireland. the
first place America.
That may be taken as an indirect tribute
TO our reputation for fairness and helpful
hess. but il is highly unfortunate in its
working out. Individually we Americans
lave perfect right to our several opin-
ions with respect To any side OF the affairs
of any country. but, nationally. we may
hardly assume to formulate the policies of
foreign power, or of any group OF foreign
powers. Efforts TO excite us and organize
us as a potential overload of the worlds

larry mi.i Iced AT any rate we should be
permitted to develop IA somewhat higher
proficiency at controlling our own govern
ment before we are invited to accept the
job Of international dictator. So far. we
lave not been able TO bring ourselves to
accept a real share i'll an international part
bershp; hence it should be plain to visiting
uSitators that we are unprcparcd to settle
European civil quarrels
The points of difference between Eng
land and ireland. between North ireland
and South Ireland, between one faction of
South ireland and another faction OF South
lreland-thcsc questions surely have no
proper place on our American "agenda. :"
They are questions all Of us would like to
see settled, and concerning which most of
us have more or less definite personal opin-
ions, but the actual business or settling
them is not. so TO speak. "in our line" and
interested parties can only cause embarrass-

\ National Problem

Q 1NCE the election on November = vets
~ and drys alike have been seeking fcver-
ishly TO determine to what extent the cuun-
try is rcacting against prohibition as il has
been established in America Conflicting
analyses of the vote in the various States
in which liquor in one form or another was
an issue have been put out, and because
these analyses are so far apart il is not
possible TO draw from them any satisfactory
conclusion.
This much. however. can be put down
as beyond the range OF argument Taken
a whole, the country is far from salts
fled with conditions as they are known to
exist. There is an element. most pronounced
III the strictly urban sections, that is clamor-
ing for radical notifications OF the Vol
stead act. There is another element not
confined 10 the cities that would welcome
the legal manufacture and sale of mild alco-
hole beverages. And there is a third Gle
ment which believes sincerely in prohibition
that is genuinely alarmed over the manifest
failure OF the government to enforce exist
ing law and even more alarmed over the di-
rect refusal OF some States TO assist in that
enforcement
1t Is entirely too much to say that there
is any revolution in America against pro-
hibtion as a principle or against enforce
ment as practical proposition II is GER
tainly not too much to say that there is
Widespread disrcspcct for the law and an

this is true of people who esteem themselves
