Man's Best Capital. Men talk of "capitalizing" this, that and the other thing. This is well as far as It goes, but would be more easily done If character and reputa tion were what they should be. These are men's best capital. Wanted Old-Time Romance By SILVIA L. BERKMAN d- . , .. . Vis). 1S23, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) "Sometimes, 1 Lynette, I feel like shaking you, and shaking you hard to get some of those foolish ideas out of your head!" Jerrold Deane spoke with vehemence and. heat. It was evident that this was not the first time the subject had been discussed by the youth and the maiden. "I have a right to my own views," Lynette insisted stubbornly, "and I won't give them up just because you, with your Twentieth century sophisti cation, think I'm a few centuries be hind the times. I Just know that I'm right, and some duy I'll prove it to you." "Lynette, please. Why did you start this thing again? We've talked it over so many times and we always end at the same place. I came out here for a pleasant evening. The evening was all right. The place" indicating the still, fragrant garden, flooded with sil ver moonlight "was all right. Only you had to start that old argument again." "I started ! I think you've been hor rid and insulting all evening, Jerrold Deane ; and let me tell you now, the more you try to force me from my ways, the more I'll stick to theml" .Terrold gazed at her pure profile, thrown into sharp relief by a nearby clump of dark shrubbery, the little mouth, always nn indicator of her emotions, struggling bravely to main tain a defiant expression, but turning downward at the corners with hurt pride. buo was so slight 80 little so pa thetically stubborn, that ali his exas peration vanished as he watched her. "Lynette, dear," he said gently, "I'm sorry I was so rude. We'll go over it once more. Just once more, and this time we won't quarrel about it. We'll discuss It just as If it concerned two other persons and not ourselves. Are you willing?" "Very well," she answered wearily, "hut It won't do any good. We've talked It over so many times, starting out with such lovely Intentions of a peaceful discussion, but it always turns out the same way. We both get an gry and say things we don't mean." "This time we won't," he told her, still gentle. "Now, dear, you know, 'cause I've told you thousands of times, that I love you better than any thing in the world. I've asked you to marry me almost as many times as I've told you I love you, but you al ways drag in those foolish notions of yours " "They aren't foolish, I'll believe what I want, and If I choose to believe that romance still exists I'll believe It." "There's where the trouble Is. You Insist that romance Is still alive, yet you won't accept it in Its present form. Romance still exists. I'm not saying that It doesn't, but it's up-to-the-minute, hustling romance of today, not the Sir Luuncelot-and-Elalne form of yes terday or the day before. Why, If you'd only believe It, In one apart ment house in New York there's more romance In one week than all the ac cumulated romances of a year In King Arthur's time." "But I don't wnnt today's romance, Jerry. I want yesterday's. Damsels in dlstras clanking armor shining shields -tournaments fair ladles Oh, I am sure that some day I will find some In: tance that will prove to you that that ideal xentltnent still Is." "Lynette. dear, I hate to make your thoughts seem ridiculous, but can you imagine wl t would happen to a per son If he should ume riding down one of our main thoroughfare clad in clanking armor and looking for a damsel In distress? The damsels would laugh at him and the knight would be gently but firmly .-reiveyed to an In stitution especially I i mded for those of a deficient mental v." "Jerrold, you're sarcastic and I hate you when you're sarcastic. You've talked for your side long enough. Now listen to me. Ever since I was a little girl I have believed in these 'foolish notions' and have dreamed about them From these dreams my Ideal was born. I pictured him to myself, Jerry. He Is a knight, young and beautiful so beautiful. I whs certain that he would come some day and I still be lieve he will. I love all the old ro mance of yesterday as you call It. I love It and I want It more than any thing else." She clasped her slendw fingers tightly and turned on him earnest, gray eyes. He could see that her slim little body was rigid with the Intensity of her desire. A sudden wave of pas slon made him tender. "Lynette," he whispered against her soft hair. "Oh, Lynette, why can't you see my way? I can't express my love In the terms of yesterday, because I don't know them. Can't you find In me even the slightest resemblance to your knight?" She turned to him suddenly snd pal her hands on his shoulders. "Jerry, dear, I don't know. Some times I almost think you are he. And sometimes I almost think I'm In love with yon, but oh. Jerry, your hair Is dark and his Is blond." He put her hands from him almost roughly. "That confounded knight," he said bitterly, "always eooitDg between us Can't you drop him now? You're get ting old enough to put aside all those childish fancies. 1 love you, but I'm telling you now If you prefer to wait for this make-believe knight, twenty years from now you'll still be Miss Lynette Handall." "You are positively insulting, Jer rold, and I won't stay out here another minute. Take me to the house imme diately." The tell-tale mouth was again Lynette's undoing. Jerrold looked at the soft quivering lips and once more humbled himself. "Lynette, Lynette, why can't we agree? But I have a plan, dear, and If you'll only consent to try It we may be happy after all. Will you listen?" "Perhaps." "Well, then, I'll give you your knight the next month in which to ar rive. If he doesn't come by that time, we'll bury him forever and never res urrect him. He's kept you waiting long enough. Will you promise to do that?" Lynette thought rapidly. She hated to yield, yet she was growing fonder of Jerrold every day. Then, too, in her secret heart she knew that Jerry was right. She had maintained her ideals lately for the most part through stubborn loyalty. "All right," she said slowly, "If he doesn't come within the next month, I'm yours." "And the knight dies?" "Y-e-s, but I'll hate to bury him, Jerry." "I'll make It the merriest funeral ever was." "Then shake on It, to make it a real promise." "Righto, little pal. A real promise it Is. But even If the old codger does turn up, I won't promise to fade from the horizon." "I don't believe I'll want you io, Jerry. Sometimes you even outshine Sir Knight." "Brave little pal. Let's kiss on It." They did and somehow Lynette felt more reconciled to the possibility of ioiug her knight. The last day of the allotted month had come, but with It no knight. Lynette, curled up in the porch swing amidst a nest of cushions, was reading her favorite volume, "Idyl's of the King." "I wish the knight would come to day, kitty," she told her little, blue eyed kitten. "I haven't wanted him so very much lately and I'm rather ashamed of being so disloyal, but to day, after Jerry's confident conceit last night and this lovely poem, I want him almost as much as before. If he would only come to show Jerry that I am right, I could send him away and be happy with Jerry for ever. Do you suppose he will come, kitty?" Kitty's soothing purr, together with the lulling motion of the swing, sent Lynette into a light slumber. She wakened at the sound of foot steps on the porch and looked up with half-opened eyes at an unknown but familiar face. Her knight I She rubbed her eyes like a sleepy child. He was perfect. Light hair waving back from the broad forehead, classic nose, lips tender yet firm, finely mod eled chin he could not be mistakes. Through the side of the vine-covered porch she could see the vague outlines of a white horse with something bright in his mane gleaming In the sun. Be hind him was another white, indistinct form perhaps another horse for her. She did not note his clothes only stared at his face. "You did come, didn't you?" she said softly. "Now I can show Jerry. I've waited so long for you." He smiled wondrously, beautifully. "I know I'm late," his voice was more than she had dared hope for "but I had a little accident on Greene street." "But you came Just In time." "I'm glad I'm In time, but I can't stop to talk, ma'am; I'm late now. How much do you want -twenty, or thirty, pounds? I'm the new Iceman, you know." "So he's dead and hurled?" asked Jerry thut night. "And you held the funeral without letting me dance at It." "He wasn't left to be buried," Lynette answered with a laugh. "The Iceman blew him into such small pieces that he didn't even come down I" "Be sure to thank the woman for me." "And when he blew up, Jerry, you blew In and I'm going to make up this evening for all the horrid evenings he's spoiled." Mrs. Mary Diefendorf Move a 200-Year Old House.
