hated you for your friends and the
way you've expected me to come when
you felt like calling" Loddon laughed
sneeringly. "But that's all done with.
Pm on top and only pity you now"
II think prefer the former emo
tion," Milman murmured.
"In future" Loddon said majestical-
ly, II shall have too many big things
to attend to to have time for you. I'll
turn your affairs over to my managing
clerk
''Thank you," Milman said, rising.
II shall not come again. Send in your
bill at once. You have been loyal to
our interests, and that is why we en-
ployed you" Peter Milman passed
over the Loddon outburst of hate as
though 1t had not interested him.
Herman Loddon watched him depart
with the feeling that his triumph had
not been as assured as he could have
wished. He had won no look of fear
or apprehension from the man he
hated. Perhaps, after all, there was
something about men like Nilman
different from him. Then the thought
of his two millions treasured him and
he numbered to the window and
watched his former client cross the
road. The great limousine opposite

Pyen1y Sense of Hunor!

A race of pygmies has been discov-
cred in New Guinea in the Dutch East
Indies by an American scientific ex-
petition. These people use stone i'm
plements and weapons. They are
strict vegetarians. When a pygmy
wants to get married, he is subjected
first to an ordeal, which consists in the
following: He is placed at certain
distance to serve as target for the
best bow and arrow sharpshooters.
He must try to dodge the flying ar.
rows. When the ordeal has lasted
long enough and he has survived, the
chief says: Here Is your wife. You
are courageous and fleet-footed enough
to endure marriage" The pygmfes
have sense Of humor, apparently

Odd Things Done at Fires

Excitable persons who at fire have
thrown valuable mirrors out the win
dow and carried out pillows may find
coincidence In the action of an Aus
tralian who braved the danger Of
blaze In saloon to throw several
dozens bottles Of liquor out the win
dow onto paved highway. More re-
Gently a nearby blacksmith shop
burned, and the same fire hero ran to
the shop and emerged with heavy
object in his arms. Il had to save
it, he said. 1T was the poor mans
living" Then he dropped an anvil

Song Composed Under Stress of Loneliness

Some persons assert that John How
ard Payne wrote his wonder song,
"Home Sweet Home" while in a debt
ors' prison. Others say he wrote 1t
at time when he was penniless and
homeless, stranded in London. Payne,
however, leaves behind him the state
ment that he was fairly successful
playwright, with q good supply of
money and excellent prospects ahead
when he wrote the song. He did adj
NIT that he was somewhat depressed
at the time he penned the words, but
he attributes his depression to dull
October day, merry crowds passing his
window as he sat and watched them'
He was lonesome. Being WANDER
err, he had strayed far from home, put
at times he had memories OF the days
he spent in happy childhood with
mother he adored in a humble cottage
at Easthampton, L. l. The tune ne

My account, for instance. Sell it and

rudely.
Peter Milman's question turned his
red face a deeper hue.
"Have you always hated me, LODI
DOM"
The lawyer did not answer imme-
diately. This hate of his was COM
pick thing, less the result of a deep
