but wholly unlike any she had ever
encountered at school. He was max
ing diagrams, doing sums in arith-
metic, and writing memoranda, all
on the same sheet of paper, and he
was intensely absorbed in his work.
Half an hour of silence ensued i'll
the library, and then the efficiency
man looked up suddenly and consult
ed the reading of large clock that
stood in a corner.
"Alice"
The younger of the Brooke girls
could scarcely believe her ears. She
looked up from her chair and stared
at him.
Glow old are you?" he asked alb
ruptly.
Alice gasped and turned pink. She
rose to her feet and stood quivering.
1t was outrageous! Constance walked
quickly to her, placed an arm about
her shoulders, and then directed a
look of scorn into the eyes of the
questioner.
"By what right you ask l do not
know" she said colby. sit is easier,
however, to answer the question
than to argue. Alice in fifteen"
"That being the case, and the hour
now being ten o'clock" remarked H.
Hedge, "Alice will kindly go to bed"
For an irresolute moment Alice
stood glaring at him, her pink cheeks
turing roster each second. Then
when the tears brimmed over, she
turned and fled from the room.
"This," said Constance, sis shame
less"
con the contrary, it is common

with a smile. Certainly" I'll obs
erve the rule. It's a good one"
Thank you," said Constance
gravely. "Of course, after break
fast"
She ended the sentence with a
shrug that was non-committal.
ooh, of course he responded
nonchalantly.
Constance led the way into the
dining-room. Billy and Alice were
at the table, thelatter half-choked
with laughter over something her
brother had said.
Good morning" nodded Billy
cheerfully, glancing up.
Good morning" said Alice as
though she were beholding the eff
cheney man for the fisrt time that
day. She still laughing.
Good morning" said Mr.. Hedge
cordially, and he sat down.
"Wen, Connie have you treated
him as you would father?" demanded
her brother with a grin
The magic influence of the break
fast hour still resisted shock. Con-
stance neither blushed nor frowned.
She laughed heartily. H. Hedge did
likewise, but with little wrinkle of
perplexity between his eyes.
"If there is anything | am miss
ing" he remarked, 81 leave it ii
your sense of fair play to see thatI
get it."
Alice whooped. Billy, with an air
of grave inquiry stood up and gagged
fixedly at the top of the efficiency
mans head. The heavy thatch of
dark hair caused him to groan re-
gretfully.
"No; you can't get it-not the
way father does" he said sadly

up the situation.

constantly stirred up and half sick
by taking cathartic pills, tablets,
salts, calomel and nasty oils every
day or two.
In DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin he
discovered a laxative which regulates
the bowels of old folks. A single
dose will establish natural, healthy
bowel movement for weeks at a time,
even for those chemically consti-
pated. DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
not only causes a gentle, easy bowel
movement but, best of all, it is often
months before another dose is neces-
sary. Besides, it is absolutely harm
less and pleasant to take.

That's too bad; IF there's any

Alice whooped agai,.

or sixty or seventy or eighty years

ed Constance.

Constance reached across the table
and laid her hand across her sister
lips.
"Imp~ she said severely. Don't
spoil it. Besides, Pm not the only

Pooh! I'm not afraid" said Alice.
You lead on and watch me.

busy with an orange, if a trifle

Alice was happy beyond speech; she
gurgled her JOY. Billy seemed to be

@o Much Efficiency
BY E.JGss&S)Rath

Raising his voice slightly, Hedge
proceeded once more to read aloud
that extraordinary instrument which
began, 81, John w. Brooke" after
the fashion of last will and tesla
ment. He read slowly and clearly
pausing between phrases, in order
that full comprehension of his
words might be obtained When he
reached the red seal, he looked up
and folded the paper.
81 am the Hedge referred to in
this document" he said. do you all
understand it,"
The eight servants remained silent
and, with one accord, glanced, at
Constance.
"You may indicate that you under
stand tiff you really do" said Con-
stance quietly.
Eight heads nodded.
Very WE'LL" said Mr.. Hedge Re
turn to your quarters"
The household help filed out of the
library with funereal steps. From
the hallway it was possible to dis
tinguish whispering, mingled with
the noise of retreating footsteps.
The efficiency man walked over to
writing-table, seated himself, pick
ed up pen, and apparently forgot
the existence of the three Brookes.
Constance, her lips tightly compress
ed, retreated to the father end Of
the room and stared into the glow of
and open fire. Billy uneasily thumb
ing a book, finally tossed it aside
and disappeared. The opening and
closing of the front door accounted
for his maneuver. Alice sought con-
ISOLATION in the Circassian-walnut
photograph. She played the loudest
concert records she could find, with
frequent chances in the direction of
H. Hedge.
He was maddeningly obvious.
Curiosity overcame Alice at length
She pretended to hunt for a book,
and the search twice carried her past
the desk at which the efficiency man
was working. But even two inspec-
tions did not enlighten her. He
seemed to be working at a problem,

sense" returned the efficiency man
internationally, as he studied Con-
stance with a contemplative gaze.
1t was not properly a battle of
eyes, for the fire of combat lay only
in those of the girl. The eyes of the
efficiency man were merely placid,
although they were singularly steady
1t was like trying to stare the Sphinx
out of countenance, and Constance
soon abandoned the task
81 shall poin my sister," she said
"You-you are a boor.'
"As you WISH he said. pleasantly,
although l should not have asked
you to retire until eleven O'Clock, as
you are obviously several years older
thany our sister And l am not a
boor; am simply an efficiency engi-
neer. Good night"
Constance did not answer him.
She walked from the library, her
shoulder squared. her head, erect
her steps measured and deliberate.
But when she had turned into the
hall, beyond the sight of H. Hedge,
she ran.

H. Hedge had been sitting at the
libray-table for an hour and a half
before any member of the family APP
peared. He was busy examining, as
sorting, and piling an array of books
and documents. Seven o'clock had
found him there, when daylight was
still so wan and feeble that he need
ed the assistance of an electric bulb.
He was beginning to get hungry.
Alice was first to observe him. She
walked briskly into the room, hum
ming, stopped short and saw the
efficiency man. 1t was such an ag-
gressively cheerful morning, with
sunlight now streaming through the
broad windows, that Alice, in buoy

Constance appeared five minutes
later but with no evidence of the
surprise displayed by ner sister.

ing. He nodded and smiled in per-
feet friendliness. There was not the
least suggestion in his manner or
voice that betrayed memory of hav-

Good morning." replied Cons
lance crisply.
She hesitated for an instant, then
approached the desk and stood fac
ing him, across the broad mahogany
expanse.
Breakfast is ready now" she
said.
Very good. We will go in"
Before We do, wish to say one
thing, Mr.. Hedge" She spoke with
composure.
He nodded
"There is one fixed rule in our
house, which | must ask you to OBJ
serve. No matter what has happen
ed the evening before, nobody is per-
mitted to be disagreeable at break

on this and it has become our Gus
