funny, as you call It, to put any
thing else. I tell you it's just her
way"
well, think it's a very funny
way and ! think anybody else would
think SO. I don't like her. never
did like her.
He thought. my God, this bicker-
ing. Why don't get out OF the
room ?"
Come back for a day OF with
me! It's a funny thing you came
back just in time to get that letter!
Before it was delivered! There!
Now you know"
: He was purely amazed. He
thought, and his amazement was
such that, Enthusiastically, his
anger left him; he thought, well,
Of all the"
But she otherwise interpreted his
establishment. She thought she had
made an advantage and she press
ed it Perhaps you knew it was
.coming?"
How on earth could I have
known it was comingr'
She seemed to pause, to be con-
sidering. "She might have told you.
You might have seen her"
He said, las it happens, 1 did see
her. Not three hours before l came
back"
She seemed disappointed. She
said. Il know you did We met
Lord Tybar."
And he thought, Good lord! She
was trying to catch me-"
She went on, You never told me
you'd met them. Wasn't that
funny?".
IF you'd just think a little you'd
see there was nothing funny about
it. You found the letter so amazing
:ly funny that, to tell you the truth,
I'd had about enough of the Tyba.s.
And I've had about enough OF
them"
@'"I daresay you have-with me.
Perhaps you'll tell me this-would
you have told me about the letter if
1 hadn't seen you get it,"
He thought before he answered
and he answered out of his thoughts.
He said slowly. 'I-don't-believe
-I-would. 1 wouldn't. 1 wouldn't
because I'd have known perfectly
well that you'd have thought it
funny"
".
No answer he could have made
could have more exasperated her.
"I-don't-believe- De-
liberation! Something incompre-
hensible to her going on in his mind,
and as result of it statement that
no one on earth tshe. felt) but he
would have made. Anyone else
would have said boldly, clustering
". "Of course L would have told
you about the letter." She would
have liked that. She would have
disbelieved it and she could have
said, and enjoyed saying, she dis
believed it. Or anyone else would
have said furiously, mo, I'm damn
ed if I'd have shown you the let
teri She would have liked that.
It would have affirmed her suspic-
ions that there was something in
it,; and she wished her suspicious
to be affirmed. 1t would have
been something definite. Some
thing justifiably incentive of anger,
of resentment, of Jealousy. Some
thing she could understand.
She could not express her feelings
in words. She expressed them in
action She arose violently and left
the, room The whole of her emo
lions she put into the slam of the
door behind her. The. ornaments
shivered. A cup sprang off a
bracket and dashed itself to pieces
on the floor.
CHAPTER ".
These events were on a Monday.
On, the following Thursday Mona
came to see him at his office.
She stood still Immediately she
was across the threshold and the
door closed behind her. She was
smiling as though she felt herself
to be up to some lark "Hullo,

GO ON WITH THE STORY.

IAN invitation? Whyever didn's
she write me?" "Whyever" again!-
MAY l see it?"
He took the letter from his pocket
and handed it to her. Its not ex-
actIy an invitation-not formal"
She did what he called "flicked"
the letter out of its envelope. He
watched her reading it and in his
mind he could see as perfectly as
she with her eyes, the odd, neat
script; in his mind he read it with
her, word by word
Dear Marko-We're back. We've
been from ChinaSto Peru-almost.
Come up one day and be bored
about it. How are you?
MONA.
His thought was, Damn the let
teri"
Mabel handed it back. without re-
turning it to it's envelope. She said,
NO, it's not formal"
She shipped three roses with
astonishing Swiftness-snip, snip,
snip!
In half an hour the shallow bas-
ket was beautified with fragrant
blooms and Mabel thought she had
enough.
well, that's that" said Sabre as
they reentered the morning room.
III.
She took up a creamy rose and
shipped off a fragment of stalk over
the saucer. why does she call you
s'Marko'%'
He was utterly taken aback. If
the question had come from anyone
but Mabel, he would have quite
failed to connect it with the letter.
But here had distinctly been al
incident" over the letter, though
so far closed, as he had imagined,
that he was completely surprised.
He said, WHO? Nona?"
Eyes, Mona, if you like. Lady
Tybar."
why, she always has. You know
that"
Mabel put the rose into a speci-
men vase with immense care and
touched a speck off its petal with
her fingers. Il really didn't"
Mabel, you know you do. You
must have heard her"
we'll l may nave Dul iOHS dSp
l certainly didn't know she used it
in letters
He felt he was growing angry.
What on earth's the difference"
at seems to M there's a great
deal of difference. l didn't know she
wrote you letters"
He was angry. Damn it, she
doesn't write me letters"
She shrugged her shoulders.
You seem TO get them, anyway"
Maddening! #
And then he thought, I'm not
going to let it be maddening. This
is just what happens" He said,
Well, this is silly. I've known her
we've known one another-tor
years, since we were children,
pretty well. She's called me by my
christian name since l can remem-
Der. You must have heard her. We
don't see much of her-perhaps you
haven't. thought you had any
way, dash the thing. What does it
NATTER"
1T doesn't matter launch
ed flower into a vase-"a bit. 1
only think it's funny, that's ALL"
Well, it's just her way"
Mabel gave a little sniff. He
thought it was over. But it wasn't
over. IF you ask me, l call it a
funny letter. You say your Chris
tlan name, but it isn't your Chris
tam name-Marko! And then say
ing, How are your like that"
Like what? She just said it,
didn't she?"
Yes. l know. And then Mona.

SMALL FARMERS

A story Is told Of Belgian farmer
who cnina to this country md was *
ed II he could make living on ten
acres Of land. I don't know he re-
piled. I used to make good living
on I'VE acres In the old country, hut
] don't know II can successfully cul-
tivate ten acres He wu- unaccustom-
ed to our wasteful and inefficient me
thotls Of farming.
There ia a lesson In this for young
men who want to own farms, hut think
they can never buy large tracts Of
land. A few acres. well titled. will pay
far better than big farm poorly till
ed.
1t Ia better to put ones toll and skill
on a few acres than to scatter It over
many acres. Many farmers in Ameri-
ca would he better of II they owned
just half or even less Of the land they
are now trying to cultivate. They
would become richer every year. In
stead Of becoming poorer.

Baseball. which Is merely sport for
most of us, Ia a career for chosen

there is money In baseball only for the
top-notchers. Only those who can play
the game q great deal better than the
rank and nle get big salaries.
And this is true Of any other bust.

cells ia the man who goes to the top.

FOCH's BEST GIFT

Ferdinand Foch. marshal Of France
and commander in-chief Of the allied
armies In the worldwar. sailed for
home the other day laden with gifts
Of every kind from the American peo-
pie during his triumphal tour Of tho
country.
Bnthis most precious gift. and the
one that he guarded most carefully.
was q little seranium, growing In .
cheap earthen pot. It was given him
by mother In Indiana. who asked
that It he planted on the grave Of her
son who fell at Scissors. Marshal
Foch assured her that this will he
done, after he has taken q branch Of 1t
to he planted in the yard Of his home
A simple little thing. but 1t shows
the big heart Of a very big man. No
wonder the people Of the earth unite

COLLEGE ATHLETICS

Tie Southern intercollegiate Athle-
tic Association has agreed that In fu-
ture hoy must spend at least one
year in college before being permitted
to play on intercollegiate games, and
that boy who once represents col
lege In college athletic contest can
never again play on team with any
other college.
The object of this agreement is to
keep professionalism out Of college
athletics. BY this agreement the col
leges say they do not want students
who come to college solely or mainly
to play football or baseball. and that
they do not want an athletic student
to come from another college solely
with the hope Of greater pay or rr-
nOwn from athletics.
This was such sensible step to
take that one wonders why 1t was not
taken before.
Nobody objects to college athletics.
within reason. But when athletics be-
comes the main thing with college stu
dents or faculties or alumni assocfn.
