DANGEROUS GROUND \

_It was a very worried I-lla who kept her luncheon appointment with Jack Farquhar the following day.

She was resolved that something must be done to avoid a daily en- gageme ‘ with Farquhar; it was too risky, with Herbert in his present suspicious state of mind.

She hadn't slept much, but the evening at home’ with Herbert had passed olI fairly pleasantly. For- tunately he had not connected Holmes with her supposed fainting attack‘ at May Vsrney's, but she felt "uneasy, because she hadn't quite succeed ’ in alloying his suspicion that there was something odd about her manner when she learned of I-lolmes's accide ‘.

Farquhar was waiting for her in the foyer of the restaurant she had appointed-another of those dis- creet places where Herbert was not likely to lunch. He looked very handsome and masterful. His smile oi greeting faded to an expression of disappointment.

“You didn't wear them?"

She wondered what he meant. as she smllingly slipped of‘! her glove and exhibited the clrclet oi dia- monds-the- one that had caused such a troublesome scene between herself and Herbert. In fact. She was rather congratulating herself on her cleverness in remembering to put it on; also it had cost her a pang, to take of! the ring of the man she adored.

Farquhafs gaze softened at sight of the ring he had slipped on her finger during those hideous war days.

I was afraid you had lost it. But why didn't you wear my flow- ers?"

“Your flowers?" echoed Lila be- wllderedly.

"I sent you orchids this mom- lng." - “You sent me—— Where dld you send them?" asked Lila hollowly. "To your home, of course," he answered, puzzled. "Where should I send them?"

Lila knew a moment's panic. Had Herbert intercepted them? And what message had Jock Written 0B his card?

"I believe I had the right address; No. 21 East Sixty-fourth, isn't it? Lila was weak with relief. father's house! ‘ "You didn't receive them?" "I—I left home early," evaded Lila. "How dld you find the ad- dress?"

"In the telephone directory, of course. I called you, too. but the telephone was busy."

“Thank Heaven!" murmured Lila to herself. Aloud she said: “Jack. you must promise never to telephone me or ‘to come to my home. My} that, man I spoke of yesterday is very jealous. He keeps s. very close watch on me. And nothlnfl must happen to disturb Dad while he is—

“Because my dearest friend has a

studio there, and she takes the trouble to look after my mall and- er-forward it. when I'm not town. She's really a darling. She's——" , “I don't care to talk about her." broke in Farquhar, abruptly. “I irvant to talk about you. L118. W111 you give me your word that. as soon as your father ls out of dan- ger, you will break this infernal en- gagement and marry me?"

"on, Jack. why d0 you tormeul me?" she pleaded tearfuliy. "You know my hands are tied."

“For the moment, yes- I lldmlt that. But I won't promise to 19l- you have your own way long; Why can't I talk to your father?"

“Oh, no, no, no!" cried Lila in panic. “I tell you, he must be kept perfectly quiet. The slightest ex- cltcment-J’ ,

“on, very well," slflhed Furquhur- “But it's trying—-thls waltini"

“Yes, yes, I know,” murmured Lila consollngiy.

He leaned toward her.

“You do know, sweetheart? You do love me a. little, too?"

"I want you to be happy. Jack," declared Lila evaslvely.

“You know the only thing that will glvs me happiness," he mur- mured bitterly.

Lila was distracted.

"Let's g0 for a walk in the Park after lunch," she suggested. Surely, she thought, that was safe enough. He wouldn't kiss her in public, and nobody she knew would be in the Park at that hour.

He agreed, a trifle sulklly. As they strolled along, Lila told him how his identification tags had been found on the body of s soldier. But he refused to be interested: he al- ready knew about it. -

“The spy who stole them got his shortly after, apparently," he re- marked gloomlly.

She told him, too, very tentative-

A FRIEND of mine recently went. into a cigar store and found the young clerk-member of an ancient race-deeply engrossed in u. book. After making his Purchase. my friend asked. pleasantly:

“What are you Medina?" “Papinfs ‘Life 0! Christ” replied the clerk. ~

"That's inlelbsting. How come?" "Oh, I'm ‘nuts’ on biography." said the young son of Israel.

IT SEEMS that William Jennings Bryan had several weaknesses-par- donable ones, to be sure. He was very fond of waffles and radishes. He stuffed his coat pockets with paper parcels of radishes which he munched on the long train journeys. If he were a guest. in a home and rsdishes were served, it was custom- ary for such hostesses as knew his preference to make up a' package for him to carry along.

THERE was a romantic touch to the waffles (relates J. C. Long in "Bryan: The Great Commoner“). During his courting days he had written to Msry Baird. the future Mrs. Bryan: -

"So you have learned to make waffles. I am so fond of them."

Mrs. Bryan saw to it that waffles were on the breakfast table.

ANOTHER endearing — to me— little weakness ofYryanZs was that no matter how large his suit case, he couldn't seem to make his things fit lntp it. Unless Mrs. Bryan was at hand to pack it for him, he would pile in the articles and then step on them until they were sufficiently mashed down to permit the closing of the lid.

AS a husband he needed a. good bit of care. And he certainly got it. And what is rarer, in husbands-ap- preciated it. Once in the closing years, Colonel House congratulated Bryan on his good fortune in having so able and understanding a help- mate.

“Your marriage was a great rom- once," said the Colonel.

"Still is, Bryan answered, beam-

THAT Walter H. ‘Page-Ambas- sador Page of World War fame- was one of the down other leaders of the publishing profession who re- jected the manuscript of Edward Wescotl/s famous‘ novel, “David Ha- rum," is revealed by Burton J. Hen- drick in his new Page book, "The Training of An American."

And he never heard the last of it —at all events, during the rest of his stay in Boston (where he was edit- ing the “Atlantic Monthly" which job he combined with that of liter- ary adviser to I-Ioughton. Mifflln Company.) .

“Refused any more David Har- um's this week?" Mr. MlfIlln would tease him, poking his head through the doorway whereat both Page's hands would go up in a mock plea for mercy.

THE manuscript of “David Ha. tum" was given .by Mr. Page for a first reading to his trusted assist- ant, Miss Francis, who, for the larger part, of her life had been an inseparable part of the "Atlantic" vfsanlzatlon, and whose background was exclusively New England,

"It's vulgar and smells of the Stable." was Miss Francis‘ com- ment as she returned the manu- scfli-‘lt most disapprovlngly m Pnge, Perhaps. in the press of other work, he read it hastily, or perhaps its mclmgruities of style blinded him to the book's genuine qualities (apo- logies Mr. Hendrick), but the fggt, is that Page reiected the manu. script.

MRS. {v1.1a WARD HOWE, author of The Battle Hymn or me RepublicP-she was ninety-two when she died in lulu-whom Page called “the most distinguished o: American women," had a quick wit and humor and an extraordinary gift of repartee. Not long before her 568th. She received a card on which was written:

"Greetings to B to ' _grea trinity. Howe. Hlizzingianftsnu

With a twinkle in her eye (she dld m} use glasses). she exclaimed:

They can't say that we drop our H's in Boston."

MARGOT ASQUITI-I (may 0x- ford), whose first novel "Octavia," l8 being talked about almost as much as were her famous "Memor- ors. offers this as the funniest lake she has ever heard:

A y0l11l8 man and his bride on the" honeymoon arrived at Monte C9110- UDOn their first night they strolled down to the beach in the moonlight and sat there gazing out over the water. '

AT Blenheim Palace (the Duke of Marlboroughs stately home) the kitchen is four hundred feet away from the dining-room. and at Clive- den (Lord Astor's beautiful resid- encc on the Thames) the' kitchens are underground and a day's journey oil’. To remedy this, Astor has had to provide a supernumernry kitchen, a5 if; were, immediately so’ ' ' his wonderful French -room.

ADMIRAL HUGH RODMAN. who commanded the American Bat- tleship Squadron with the Grand Fleet during the World War, tells this in his book “Yarns of a Ken- tucky Admiral":

“I had on my stall during the World War a British officer who adored London ‘Punch! One day one of my aides said to him loklng-

“ ‘Captain, don't you think that British jokes are s0 obscure that one needs an interpreter to explain them?"

“ ‘Mr. X—,' he replied, ‘I want you to understand that British Jokes are not to be laughed at!’

"This yarn went the rounds of the Grand Fleet," pipes the Admiral, “and my good friends, the British- ers. appreciated ii; as much as we did."

WHEN Admiral Riodmsn was lIl Honolulu years ago for the corona- tion of King Kalakaua, the latter was dlscussing—in the market place —with the ship's doctor, the fact that the Hawaiians ate raw fish, and to demonstrate it, took a small one and swallowed it.

“Flne," said the doctor. "And now, your Majesty, if you would drink a quart of water, you would have a royal aquarium."

SERGEANT BAILANITNE, noted Victorian barrister, ln his “Ex- perlences," q oies an instance in the trial of a pr oner where an emin- ent counsel had been induced by the urgency of an ‘attorney, although against his own judgment, to ask a question on cross-examination the answer to which convicted his client- Upon receiving the answer, he tum- ed to the attorney who had advised lhim to ask it, and sdld, emphasizing every word;

"Go home: cut your throat; .and when you meet your client in hell, beg his pardon."

WHICH reminds me that some of the best legal stories I know of are.to be found in Francis L. Well- ‘mnn’s fascinating book “The Art of Cross-Examination." For instance: A laboring man was suing a Street Railway concern for damages aris- ing out of a. collision between two surface cars. He had testified that he had been permanently injured and could not, as a rcsu t, raise his arm above a point p 311g], with his shoulder. \

UPON cross-examination, after a few sympathetic questions, he was

The plaintiff slowly and with con- siderable difficulty raised his 31111 toflthe parallel of his shoulder.

A CASE‘ was being tried which involved the soundness of a horse, and a clergyman called as a. witnggg had succeeded only in giving a rather confused account of the transaction. A blustering counsel on the other side, after many attempts to get at the facts upon cross-exam- ination, blurted out:

"Pray. sir. do you know the differ- ence between a horse and a cow?"

I I acknowledge my ignorance," m. plied the clergyman. "I hardly do know the difference between a horse and a cow. or between a bull and a bully-our u bull, 1 am told has horns. and a bully (bowing rpm- fully in counsel), luckily for me has none." ' -
