CHAPTER iV-Continued.

A nubbub of exclamation arose
about him. Young men dropped their
clinging partners, and drew together,
1rOwning ~nervouSly.
Ann looked at Hendricks with a new
respect. "Oh," she cried, "if l were
only a boy"
YES" he said importantly, 81 shall
fight, OF course As he spoke he took
in, for the first time, her new maturity,
and his face dropped. Of all the
strange events of this ~curiously unreal
evening, the change In Ann vas per-
haps the strangest; there was some
thing about her that awoke his slug
gish spirit, something beyond his
whispered comment TO Fanny, why
AIMS grown prettyI"
In the crowded, overheated room,
with its dropping dollhouse roses and
its fiaring lights, a new sentiment was
suddenly diffused. A little group of
men burst from the supper room, Mr..
Renneslyer in the lead, flushed of face
and noisily threatening; they were
louder than any in their resentment.
Ann pressed through the crowd to
where the musicians stood idle, their
instruments dangling in their hands (;
she whispered a direction to the lead
er and suddenly the opening strains of
America rose, inspiringly, over the
ardent confusion. Here and there a
daring voice took up the words, but a
leader was needed, and the song would
have died had not Mr.. Renneslyer,
who was standing near the musicians,
CHANGED TO turn his rowing eye on AIMS
excited face. Without a moments
thought he caught her up in his arms,
and swung her TO a chair. where she
stood above the crowd, tremulous and
frightened, until the thrill of the mo-
ment caught her again; then she
laughed down at Mr.. Renneslyer's eff
forts to lead, and began to sing the
words which Mrs. Allen had taught her
long ago.
Before the end every one was sing
ing with her, in a great burst of sound
that was strangely satisfying to the
emotion of the men When it was
over she paused, and dropped, sud.
denly abashed, and .here was young
Hendricks below her; in his eyes was
an expression that b%ewildered her. He
held out both his hands, and she would
have jumped lightly down, only he
caught her clumsiIy in his arms, and
set her carefully on the floor again,
She thought that he was trembling
Or was it she who shivered, ~nervouslyi
"Gad. Ami" he said feelingly
"What a beauty you are!"
She looked at him I~nbelievingly
"I?" she demanded incredulously
Her amazed face was distinctly pro.
vocative.
There had been a sudden sweep OF
guests toward the door, and In the
corner where the musicians haC
played the two were momentarily
alone. The boy was breathing uneven
ly and hard, as though he were quite
carried away by the extraordinary
events of the evening. He reached oul
suddenly, and drew his companion be
hind the window curtains; meeting M
opposition from the startled girl, b,
bent and kissed her.

darkened library was gratifyingly re-
f~reshing. and as he sank into the most
comfortable chair, he allowed himself
the luxury of complaint.
Where is Ann?" he demanded ac-
c~usingly.
Fanny flushed sensitively as she an
swered that she did not know.
"She knew ! was coming today" he
said, darkly irascible.
II can't think where she can be-"
Fanny murmured alphabetically,
again and again.
The outer door opened and there
was a murmur of a girls clear voice
in greeting. Old Joseph's footsteps re-
coded, but still the culprit did not ap-
pear; there was something reluctant
in her delay. 1t was a good minute be-
fore her slim figure in wide crino-
line was brilliantly outlined against
the gloom of the doorway. She was
apparently unaware of the disapproval
she faced, for she smiled impersonaI-
ly at the two cousins. Hello" she
said.
Where have you been? 1t Is six
O'Clock"
"Th~ Twenty-fourth infantry

effort to tighten Hendricks gloom.

said. in heavy appreciation.
"You don't know what else / did"
Ann said def1antly. She was unreal

Fanny interposed nervously, miser-
able in the face of a situation that
was becoming strained. "You worked

It is the public that gets the benefit

He slipped a laundering, unaccus-
toned arm about her waist, and an
acrid little shiver ran through the girl

buried her face in his shoulder. The
boy held her for a moment, half
frightened, half cautious; then he bent

"Yes-or the duration of the war,

while bleak indifference swept into
her face. Hendricks tone was defen-

morrow morning. They will pay me

"Will they?' Her tone was as IN

Ann! That is seven hundred and

Ann drew her arm away ~precipitate-

startled as though the idea were en-

But l can't think about it with the

And this was a fairly accurate
description of her state of mind. Her
imagination was entirely caught by
the great drama and she had little in
terest in s~elf-centered lovemaking.
Late in May the Union army moved
on Alexandria, where the Confederate
flag flew in plain sight of all Wash
ington, and in the successful occupa-
ton, Colonel Ellsworth, the leader Of
the New York Fire Zouaves, was
killed. His death made a great sensa-
ton in New York, where he had been
a popular figure, and as a result, there
was a great rush for enlistment.
AS soon as the regiments were
ready, they were sent off to Virginia,
where the Federal army was advanc-
ing slowly, and engaging in unimpor-
tant clashes with the enemy. The
North was eager for victories, and
hailed the taking of Fairfax Court
House as an important event. Great
crowds hung about before the newspa-
per bulletin boards, following the
movements of the New York troops IN
gagged in the advance; enthusiasm was
in the air, and the women at the San
itary commission redoubled their eff
forts. Ann scraped so much lint in a
day that she was, herself. amazed.
In July, in III engagement at Man.
assas Junction, there came the first
death in the war of any one Ann had
known. Young Philip Vanderdyken,
with whom she had danced at her
debut, was shot and buried on the
field. This brought the tragic thing
close; she was greatly shocked, and
for a tine she seemed almost to have
transferred to him her feeling for her
lover. Hendricks and his bookkeeping
seemed incredibly remote.
The boy dropped into the Washing
ton Square house one hot afternoon
when his work was over and found
only his cousin Fanny. Mr.. Cortlandt's

however, she lay wide-eyed in the

through her head, accompanying her
rioting thoughts. From the tangle Of
them one astonishing fact arose clear
a man had called her beautiful.
She would not frankly face the fact
that she had been kissed, and not for
worlds would she have admitted TO
herself why she lay with her hand
against her cheek.
She determinedly tried to think of
the mOmentous fact that Fort Sumter
had been captured, but instead she
found herself recalling the expression
on young Hendricks face when he
said hat she had grown to be q
beauty. Over the trees In Washington

Out and In.

The Seventh regiment volunteered
for one month only; in five weeks it
was back again in New York. Ann
was enormously glad to see Hendricks,
but she had been looking forward so
ecstatically to his return that when
he appeared she was possibly a trife
disappointed. In her thoughts she had
endowed him with e%xtraneous charm,
and looking at him she was conscious
of a sudden sinking of her spirit. She
made him tell her all about his brief
campaign. They spent hours In the
Ann glowed with martial excitement.
She always thought of Hendricks as a
soldier, ready, at the call, TO sacrifice
his life for his country, and she felt
that it was only right for him to have
everything he might want. including
her, as hat was his strange wish. She
was extraordinarily supple and unself-
ish with him In these days, but. while
she understood that the Seventh regi-
ment was TO be demobilized immedi-
ately, she would not frankly face the
fact that once her lover was mustered
out, he would be merely a civilian
again. When he came in one day, his
uniform exchanged for a smartly
checked coat and waistcoat and loose
snuff-colored trousers. she looked at
him aghast, and turned in his arms so
that mis- lips pressed her hair instead
of her cheek.
How queer you look" she said
ENORMOUSLY.

Hendricks returned Indignantly. "Now
YOU listen to me. l have something to
tell you."
She looked up eagerly; already the
members of the Seventh were vol
~unteering into other regiments and
she thought Hendricks was about to
that he had done the same
thing.
..You have re-enlisted already! !" She
clasped both her hands about his arm
and lifted an adofing face.

pipe-smoker's
challenge to
other smokers
Is there a smoker in the
audience who can
answer this one?

Nearly every smoker is particular
about the kind of tobacco that goes
into his pipe. While he may smoke a
pipeful from a friends pouch for the
sake of companionship, for day-in-and-
LAYOUT smoking he prefers his own
brand.
And yet if you ask the average
smoker what it is he likes about his
tobacco, he may have difficulty in
answering you Immediately.
Mr.. Joe Rivers, whose letter fol-
lows, is a confirmed Edgeworth
smoker. In attempting to describe
what he likes about Edgeworth, he
coins the word Observation-Disclosures"
But as this does not entirely satisfy
him, he puts the question up to other
Edgeworth smokers.
Larus & Brother Company,
Richmond. Va.
Gentlemen:
Being a pipe smoker of no mean expert
ence (having tried most pipes and pipe to-
baccos) I've watched your smokers let
tiers in the magazines for some explanation
of a taste that for me applies only to
Edgeworth.
1t is extremely difficult to describe this,
because it seems to come as the smoke
filters through the mouth and nostrils at
the end of a drawfrom the pipe-a sort of
combined "tasty-smellfulness that most
satisfies the smoke appetite.
Why don't you get some of your smok-
srs who can write, to describe this?
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) Joe Rivers
