Lord Hero Of Romancs.

The fame Of Lord Richard ('Dick')
Wilmington, who In the latter part Of
the Fourteenth and early part Of the
Fifteenth centuries was Mayor Of
London. Is due mainly to the popular
romance Of which he became the hero.
According to this legend, the lad Whit
tington went to London and found en-
ployment as a scullion. To the freight
Of an outgoing vessel he contributed
his cat, which was sold for q large SUM
in Barbary. When the ship returned
to London he heard the Bow bells
sounding. calling him to the future
mayorship. He received the price Of
his cat, married his lady fair, and,
living happily, rose to the honored post
Of mayor. There ih however. no

accounts Of his being made knight
and II his burning the kings bond

CHAPTER /

-
Through the curtained windows of
che furnished apartment which Mrs.
Horace Hignett had rented for her
stay in New York rays Of golden sun
light peeped in like the foremost spies
Of some advancing army. 1t was ex-
actly eight; and Mrs. Hignett acknowl-
edged the fact by moving her head on
the pillow, opening her eyes, and Sit
ting up In bed. She always woke at
eight precisely.
Was this Mrs. Hlgnett THE Mrs.
Hignett, the world-famous writer on
theosophy, the author Of "The Spread
ing Light" "what of the Morrow" and
all the rest Of that well-known series?
I'm glad you asked me. Yes, she was.
She had come over to America on
lecturing tour.
The year 1927, 1t will be remem-
bered, was trying one for the inhabi-
tants of the United States. Every
boat that arrived from England
brought a fresh swarm Of British lee
turers to the country. Novelists, poets,
scientists, philosophers and plain, or
dinary bores; some herd instinct
seemed to affect them all simultane-
susly.
Mrs. Hignett had come over with the
frst batch of immigrants; for, spir-
itual as her writings were, there was
q solid streak of business sense in this
woman and she meant to get hers
while the getting was good.
She had not left England without a
pang, for departure had involved sec
rifces. More than anything else In
the world she loved her charming
home, windles, In the county of Hamp
shire, for SO many years the seat OF
the Hignett family. Windles was as
the breath of life to her. Its shady
walks, Its silver lake. Its noble elms
the old gray stone Of its walls-these
were bound UP with her very being
She felt that she belonged to Windles
and Windles to her. Unfortunately
as a matter Of cold, legal accuracy, II
did not. She did but hold 1t in trust
for her son, Eustace, until such time
an he should marry and take posses
sion of 1t himself. There were times
when the thought Of Eustace marrying
and bringing strange woman tc
windles chilled Mrs. Hignett to hel
very marrow. Happily, her Arm policy
Of keeping her son permanently under
her eye at home and never permitting
him to have speech with a female be
low the age Of ifty had averted the
peril up till now.
Eustace had accompanied his
mother to America. It was his faint
snores which. she could hear in the
adjoining room. as. having bathed and
dressed, she went down the hall ID
where breakfast awaited her. She
smiled tolerantly. She had never de.
sired to convert her SON to her own
early rising habits, for, apart from
not allowing him to call his soul his
own, she was an indulgent mother
Eustace would get up at half-past nine
long after. she had finished breakfast,
read her mail. and started her duties
Tor the DAY.
Breakfast was on the table In the
sitting-room. Beside It was q little
pile Of letters, Mrs. Hignett opened
them as she ate. The majority were
from disciples and dealt with matters
Of purely theosophical interest. There
was an Invitation from the Butterfly
club asking her to be the guest Of
honor at their weekly dinner. There
was a letter from her brother Nal.

His Own Idea.

A young blood or dandy Of the Pc
riod went into shop and asked for
pink shoestrings. They told him they
had no pink shoestrings and had
never noted any demand for the same.
"In fact" stated the head of the
firm, Il can't for the life Of me Inn
agine what you want with pink shoe
strings"
The, dandy fiicked an imaginary bit
of dust from his cuff and condescend-
ed to explain: "It Is just an idea Of
mine, don't You know. I wish to use
them as neckties-"

proved, would be in New York short
ly, passing through on his way back
to England and hoping that she would
see something of him. Altogether a
dull mall. Mrs. Hignett had just risen
from the table when there was sound
of voices in the hall, and presently the
domestic staff, q gaunt Irish lady OF
advanced years, entered the room.
"Ma'am, there was a gentleman"
Mrs. Hignett was annoyed. Her
mornings were sacred.
Didn't you tell him was not to be
disturbedT
"I did not I loosed him into the
parlor."
The staff remained for a moment In
melancholy silence, then resumed. "He
says he's your nephew. His names
Marlowe"
Mrs. Hlgnett experienced no dlmi-
mutton of her annoyance. She had not
seen her nephew Sam for ten years
and would have been willing to ex-
tend the period. She remembered him
as an untidy small boy who, once or
twice, during his school holidays, had
disturbed the cloistral peace Of Win
dies with his beastly presence. How
ever blood being thicker than water,
and all that sort Of thing she sup
posed she would have to give him five
minutes. She went into the sitting
room and found there young man
who looked more or less like all other
young men, though perhaps rather
| filter than most. He had a brown
and amiable face, marred at the mo-
ment by, an expression OF discomfort
somewhat akin to that Of cat in a
strange alley.
"Hallo, Aunt Adelinel' he said awk-
wardly.
"Well, Samuel" said Mrs. Hignett.
| There was pause. Mrs. Hignett,
who was not fond Of young men and
dislilSed having her mornings broken
into, was thinking that he had not
| improved in the slightest degree since
their last meeting; and Sam, who
imagined that he had long since grown
e mans estate and put off childish
things, was embarrassed to discover
that his aunt still affected him as OF
old. That Is to say, she made him
feel as II he had omitted to shave
| and, In addition to that, had swal
lowed some drug which had caused
him to swell unpleasantly, particularly
about the hands and feet.

he had always felt that II Eustace had
not had to retire to Windles to spend
his life with a woman whom from his
earliest years he always considered the
Empress of the Wash-outs much might
have been made Of him. Both at
school and at Oxford, Eustace had
been-h not sport-at least a de-
cidedly CHEEKY old bean. Sam remem-
bered Eustace at school breaking gas
globes with a slipper in a positively
rollicking manner. He remembered
him at Oxford playing up to him man
fully ut the piano on the occasion when
he had done that imitation of Frank
Tinney which had been such hit at
the Trinity smoker. Yes, Eustace had
had the making of pretty sound egg
and 1t was too bad that he had al
lowed his mother to coop him Up down
In the country miles away from any
where.
"Eustace Is returning to England or
Saturday" said Mrs. Hignett. She
spoke little wistfully. She had not
been parted from her son since he had
come down from Oxford; and she
would have liked to keep him with her
till the end Of her lecturing tour. That
however, was out Of the question
1t was imperative that while
she was away, he should be at
Windles. Nothing would have induced
her to leave the place at the mercy OF
servants who might trample over the
flower-beds, scratch the polished floors
and forget to cover up the canary at

It seemed to Sam that his aunt
spoke somewhat vehemently. even

perfectly natural mistake. He could
not know that the subject Of letting
windles for the summer was one which
had long since begun to infuriate Mrs.
Hignett. People had certainly asked
to let windles. In fact people had
