NV Daphne Sumers an
Y Y swered. I'm getting
married, you know, and
we mean to catch the afternoon boat. "
THAT is fortunate for me, since !
shall be on the same train" He said
that direct to Alison and underlined
it with o languorouS, careSSing glance
that made her turn abruptly away.
But even with her head turned, her
eyes on Daphne, she could feel him
watching her and her repulsion grew
you'll be on that train?" Daphne's
surprise was shrill, yet Alison felt sure
she had arranged the whole thing
you're leaving England at once,
then?" As he did not answer, she re-
peated sharply. Are you leaving
England?"
"What2 Oh, yes. I must get back
to work"
But though he said that smoothly,
Daphne had seen him start and drag
his gaze away from the girl. She
flashed look at Alison and a heavy
red color stole into her bony cheeks.
"It's certainly q mistake not to at
tend to business" she agreed; even
Alison caught the acid note behind
that.
He rose at once.
There is the bell. I must get back
to my seat. Au revoir, madame" He
bent low over Daphne's hand and
kissed 1t. "Au revoir, mademoiselle. |"
He went out with q gliding, undulat-
ing movement which reminded Alison
Of snake.
When the door had shut, Daphne
said in her most plaintive, nasal drone,
Hes really nice, Gompez; he's not o
Spaniard, though. I believe he is o
Colombian or something, Spanish
American anyway, but he was o won
derful friend to me when had trouble
over my passports once. That's why
I'm so glad to be able to recommend
him and use his hotel now"
The curtain had gone up again:
Robert had come back into the bon
and was sitting between his daughter
and fancee. Alison, sheltered by her
father from Daphne's keen eyes,
leaned forward looking at the stage,
although she neither heard q word nor
saw the actors. Her whole mind was
concentrated on single tssue-how
could she warn her father?
For it had come to that now.
To cheat him like thatl For Com
pez and Daphne were in love; apart
from the kiss, Daphne had given her
self away by the acid note in her voice
and the flush on her face, and Alison
found 1t dificult to disguise her own
contempt when Daphne spoke to her
ut all.
How could she let her own father
walk blindfolded into such trap.
Alison asked herself, staring wide
eyed, yet unseeing at the stage. How
could she put him on his guard?
il she told him her belief, he would
merely scoff at the idea and be angry,
put 1t down to jealousy, or be shocked
she should think such things. Daphne
had primed him too well.
And tomorrow, at half past /, they
would be married. All the mothering,
protective instinct of 0 woman, latent
In the girl, rose at the thought Of let
ting Robert marry Daphne sumers.
But had she the courage to tell him
outright, chance his anger and dis
belief? Or should she speak herself
to Daphne?
The curtain fell. Robert got up
and went out to smoke. Alison sat
very stin In her corner.
Daphne was lying back in her chair,
the immense fox collar of her evening
coat like huge arch behind her sleek
black head with It's little crown OF
curls. She sat playing with the long

"I don't feel myself" gasped Old

manded Jenny Wren.

Old Mr.. Toad.

"You don't happen TO know where

I would give anything for some water"
Jenny looked hard at Old Mr.. Toad
and her sharp little eyes snapped. "I
believe you do need some water" said
she. "I'll see II I can find some"
Jenny few away and Mr.. Toad be-
gan to feebly dig with his hind feet.
He didn't feel like digging. He felt
too used up for that, but he Just had
to get down into that comparatively
cool earth. He was Just about half
buried when Jenny Wren returned.
At first she didn't see him.
Here I am" said Old Mr.. Toad
feebly.
Jenny was about to reply sharply,
for you know that Jenny Wren has o
quick tongue, but she saw how mis-
cradle Old Mr.. Toad really looked, 30
she said mildly: I've found some

eagerly.

and every one tried to tell what had
happened. The count said he had
been robbed when the lights went out.
Some one said two men had dis
appeared through q side exit just as
the lights went on. Mrs. Laidlaw said
she had nothing more to say, as she
could make no just accusations and
she did not wish to subject her friends
to the humiliation Of being searched.
The police took the names and ad-
dresses Of all the guests, then cleared
the place.
Mrs. Laidlaw leaned back among
her silken pillows and read the morn
ing edition Of q local newspaper.
There was q full column devoted to
the description Of Mrs. Laidlaw's
missing jewels, their value and their
authentic history. Celeste entered
with her breakfast tray.
"A gentleman has been waiting to
see you. He says you are expecting
him" Before Mrs. Laidlaw could
demonstrate or more, the count walked
in, suave and arrogant. His right
hand remained in his coat pocket and
he nodded his head at the maid.
"You may 60, Celeste"
When Celeste had gone he stood
quietly several minutes and looked
steadily at Mrs. Laidlaw, then he
spoke. "It's been q long time since
we met, Bertha, and your disguise Is
perfect, but I'll trouble you to return
the 20 grand you took from me last
evening""
you're crazy. I never saw you be-
fore. IL You took my jewels,
Albert. III have you arrested"
'You had that chance last evening,
I believe. Your jewels are paste. But
I'll trouble you to hand over the
money. You've been working pretty
slick little game since we parted in
Monte Carlo. I came to New York,
not knowing who you were, to get
your Jewels. Here they are" He
drew from his pocket the glittering
baubles and threw them on the bed
where they sparkled among the lace
and satin.
He covered her with q small auto
matte.
"In give you 10 minutes to make
up your mind, and If we're inter-
rupted, remember, I'm en old friend.
'I surrender" Mrs. Laidlaw reach
ed under her pillow and drew out q
long paper envelope. 'You see, Al
bert, I know Just how you carry your
loot. Remember me to Nine. Coudrey."

COYOTE HUNTING.
OE BR'ER COYOTE, the feet and
willy plains relative of the fox, is
serving . role in national defense,
unwitttngly and most unwillingly.
The coyote, which has been decreed a
pest in many localities and which exists
with q price upon his head, owing life
to warineSs and eternal vigilance, has
become q target for military aviators
who need to brush UP on their aerial
gunnery.
Coyote gunnery" Is the invention
Of the 41st Division Aviation, Wash
ington National Guard, according to
the Office Of the chief Of the Air Corps.
The gunnery practice necessarily takes
place in the wilds Of the sage-brush
country where the coyote roams.
The pilot flies low over the sage
until he stirS up q coyote, who imme-
diately becomes o lively and most
elusive target for pilot and observer.
As camera guns only are used, the
target is preserved for future opera
tons. As the airplane approaches the
coyote he doubles his speed, twisting
and turning until it takes q good man
indeed to get him in the croSs-wires
Of the camera gun. When the air
plane Is almost on the coyotes back
he almost always ''rares up" shows his
fangs, and begins running circles un-
til the plane pulls up.
The pilots have found that It is
impossible to run a coyote TO death
with an airplane, because, after each
dive, the coyote Is smart enough to
rest as he travels along at mere dog
trot.
The training has been found highly
beneficial to pilots in preparing for
actual firing for aerial gunnery
records.
NOT SMART ENOUGH.
THE autOist was smart.
So was the policeman.
The autoiSt parked his car and left
q note under the windshield wiper
which read: Run out Of gasI Be
back shortlyl"
The officer figured it was o most
opportune time to run out Of gas,
neatly parked in a limited zone.
1t was also opportune that Q con-
veniently- stick was at hand to
test the gasoline tank.

just as well. He is very aggressive,
and much credit for Dartmouth's fine
season must be attributed to him.
Other fine centers are Robertshaw,
Navy, and Pillsbury, Colgate.
Because of the fact that they are
ball carriers, and have the attention
of the public focused upon them,
there is always a lot of backs who
get great lot of publicity. The selec-
ton of four backs from so many
stars is very difficult. The all-Eastern
backfield will consist of Meyer, Army;
Constable. Princeton; Randour, Pitts
burgh, and Smith, N. Y. U.
Backfield Is Versatile.
This backfield has all the elements
of greatness. In it there is a fine
field general in Meyer. Three men,
Meyer, Smith and Randour, are ex-
ceptional passers. Smith and Meyer
are fine punters. Constable is great
bucker and blocker. All of these men
are strong On defense and would carry
out their blocking assignments. Ran
dour is one of the best defensive
backs against passes in the country.
