IELKH0RN1 HOW NOVELIST SPENDS CASH Sir Jamt Barrio Evidently On ol Those Who Believe In "Doing Good by Stealth.'' Sir .Tuiihs ISnrrie who wrote "My Lady Nicotine" and so iniiny of the world's most beautiful stories, was an Intimate friend of the heroic explorer .Scott, who perished in the Antarctic after reaching the South pole. The author believed in the sailor and helied to finance his last tragic dash for the South pole. When his effects were examined amid the frigid and ghastly Antarctic stillness, the relief party that arrived too late found a letter for Itarrie among the dead man's effects. Only Itarrie knew what It unfolded. Since that time he has been a second father to the or phaned boy. Speaking of little Peter Scott, the author of "Peter Pan" said, "That little chap has given me a hard task. I must send him a new poemor a freshly conceived fairy tale every week." One of P.airie's favorite adopted sons, the original of David In "The Little White Jiird," was killed In action near Ypres. As u memorial to li I m Karrie established and supported a hospital In Prance until the end of the wur. Ills name was never asso ciated with It and hardly a dozen people In England knew of this bene faction. ALWAYS STUDYING THE SKY Work Has Been Made Much Easier Since the Introduction of Celes tial Photography. There continues the discovery of as teroids or minor planets, especially with the aid afforded by celestial photography. Among a vast multitude of .stars crowding on a photographic plate one, perhaps, will lie seen to have drawn a short, thin line on the plate during ils hours of exposure. The astronomer knows at mice that It is either an asteroid or a comet. Subsequent observations soon decide Ihe point. Only the more Interesting ones are afterward observed willi at tention, but once discovered they can not be Ignored, and the rapid growth of the flock becomes an embarrass ment. Eros, which at times approaches the earth nearer than any other regular member of the solar system except the moon, and Asteroid No. fiHri, which at aphelion Is more distant than Jupiter, as far as their orbits are concerned, remain the most Interesting members of the entire group and are kept under constant observation whenever cir cumstances permit.

Next lie was hustled into the olliee of an X-ray spociallsl. From there he passed to a laboratory tech nician, then to a blond expert, and liuully to Ihe nerve clinic. "W hen lie returned to the chief line tor he was curtly told die pile of re ports showed Hull I here was nothing Ihe mailer with him." "How about my bill?" queried (he pallent. "On. yrni must see my accountant for Ihul," replied the doctor, ushering I ll III out. "Well, really, doctor, I should like to pay yon personally," replied the pa tient, "for then I would have the satis faction of knowiii!.; thai you did at least one thing In my case."

It Is reported that herds of ele phants have Invaded the region of Lake Leopold, In the Itelglan Congo, and are laying waste tins plantations there, so that food supplies are endan gered. The natives refuse to hunt the elephants, nS they do not share the proceeds of Hie hunting, and people are deserting many villages. No doubt In Pliocene and early Pleistocene times primitive man must have had many pitched battles with the elephant family; but It is rather strange to think that even in ihe Twentieth century there are elephants numerous enough and enterprising enough to sack villages Riul desiwojr plantations. It sounds as if they were becoming civilized. Oratitude. "The recent apturge of sentiment and sentimentality over the author of 'Home. Sweet Home,'" remarked a IVtrolt newspaper man, "did not Im press me greatly.' 1 happen to knuv that the flowers placed on the grave of Payne on the one hundredth anni versary of the birth of the sons were the first tloral offerings placed there in more than L years."

"Out In Kansas there used to be an old fellow named Uncle Jack, and he had a dog," runs the story told by Vic tor Murdock of the federal trade com mission. "If. was not a highly bred dog, but it was u wonder at catching nils. Moreover, Uncle Jack was fond of the dog. Uncle Jack had few oilier inliinutes because of a disposition to be rather savage in his conversation. He imagined that half the people he met were antagonistic toward him, and this made hint not any too companion able. So It was just as well that he had a warm friend in the dog. "One night us he and the dog were passing a corner grocery where everybody loafed, two or three by standers sought to make a hit. with Uncle Jack by complimenting his dog. "'That's certainly a line little dog of Uncle Jack's,' remarked one of the bystanders. " 'Yes, I don't suppose there's a bet ter dog anywhere,' said another. "Uncle Jack turned and glared at the bunch and hurled this : " 'Ye think lie's Just good for catch In' rats, eh? Well, I'll have ye know lie's just as good on mice ye goldarn fools.' " VAIN UNTIL WELL INTO AGE Gray-Haired Men Far More Particular About Their Clothes Than Are the Young. Somehow, when friend husband doesn't seem to look right in any of the suits the patient clerk hauls forth, wives are apt to forget their unites are no longer the youthful swain who cuine a-courtin' ten years or more ago. Kven though lie may affect the younger models and gayer checks or stripes, the bulging waist, the doubled chin and the ever-so-slight droop of the shoulders have sadly changed the Original Apollonian lines which the fond wife still recognizes In her mate. Ilcady mades, fashioned on perfect wooden models, have a way of ac centuating the middle-aged wearer's defects. Therefore, the tailor is called pon to exercise his craftiness by prac tk'ltij; deceptions to conceal the ugly faults, says the New York Sun. The narrow double-breasted model does much to bide an unsightly abdo men. A bit of cotton will straighten the drooping shoulders, but the double chin Is there to stay; na "trick of the trade" will conceal it. That is why a tailor will tell yon that the gray haired man la fussier about his clothes than the young chap.

He is "as ! proud as the peacock" which remains i In hiding until his new tail feathers I have grown to the "sweeping" length. I Would the tidy mule think of ever I leaving his house unshaved? i It Is the preening of the husband I that causes the wife to spend hours :t her mirror "fixing up" In a competi : t!ve efl'oiL g By H. IRVING KINC x (il, 1H23, by McClure i.'ewsjjaper Syndicate.) pDITH CRANTOUD and her estlma ble parents had been big game hunting In the social jungles of New York for three seasons without bring ing down the quarry. Edith, from the time she had begun to picture her fu ture and under the loving tutelage of her parents she began very young had never looked forward to anything less gilded than a millionaire for a husband. In her fourth season Edith Cranford succeeded ; this Diana of the Four Hun dred brought down her millionaire. And the "kill" had been worth all the effort and the heart-breaking delay. Warren Champlain was thirty years old, and w as encumbered with no near relatives, was good-looking and, for a man of millions, remarkably Intelligent and well educated. Father and Mother Cranford, when they heard the news, were Jubilant. But over Edith there soon stole a curious irritable indiffer ence. When finally she announced that she would not marry Warren Chaiia plain, after all, Father and Mother Cranford were driven into a sort of frenzy. But neither tears, hysterics, threats nor pleadings would move Edith. She wrote Warren a calm, brief note telling him that they "had both been mistaken" and that "all must be considered over between them." j Now Warren refused to be put off with a few words written on the latest style of note paper. He demanded an interview with Edith, but she would not see him and, after several stormy scenes with her parents, she was packed off to her great-aunt Cynthia, who had a country place in a retired corner of New Hampshire. Warren C'hainplain had little difficul ty in finding out the place of Edith's retreat and one "all golden afternoon" he came strolling up the driveway that led to Miss Cynthia Van Buskirk's summer home. That ancient and wise spinster had, since the arrival of her niece, been giving her much sound ad vice. As Edith sat on the piazza she was turning over in her mind her aunt's words of wisdom. She heard some one approaching, raised her eyes and there stood the central figure In her thought before her in person . "You?" she cried, "why " "Yes, why?" lie echoed. "That la Just what I have come to find out." He took a chair beside her and imprisoned one of her hands in his. She resisted but not strenuously. "Tell me, Edith," he said, "why have you broken with me? Is it because you do not love me?" The girl, exerting all her self-control, said evenly: "No; it is because I do love you that I cannot marry you. You know what people say of me that I pursued you on account of your money. And they speak the trutlu And then when I found I really loved yon for yourself oh, can't you under stand? How could I marry n man I love under such circumstances? There have I sufficiently humbled myself? Do you despise me enough now to go on your way and forget that such a creature as I ever existed?" Warren actually smiled and Edith, with an angry Hush, rose as If to go. "No, no," he said ; "sit down here, you Illogical little person, and listen to reason. If you laid a trap for me, I walked into it with my eyes open. Don't you suppose there were plenty of people to warn me? I went in eagerly and, Edith, I -want to stay there. Isn't it just as wicked to refuse to marry a man whom you love, and who loves you, because of his money as It would be to marry a man because of his money whom you don't love?" "Well, yes, I suppose so," faltered Edith. "At least, that is what Aunt Cynthia says." "Admirable and perspicacious wom an," said Warren. "Take me to her." "Well," said Miss Cynthia, when the presentation had been made,, "have you young folks settled everything? Have you brought this morbid young lady to reason, Mr. Champlain?" "Partially," replied Warren, "and I rely upon her estimable aunt to com plete the cure." "Hut what will people say?" objected Edith. "Say?" cried Miss Cynthia. "They can't say much more tliun they have said already. And who are you, pray, anyway, that you should begrudge the ten-tables of New York a pleasing piece of malicious gossip?" "But my self-respect " objected Edith. "Fiddledee!" exclaimed Miss Cyn thia, "of ull my aggravating relatives and they iire all aggravating I be lieve you are the most aggravating." Warren turned to E-Uli and said, calmly and sternly: "E;'.!;h, what you call your self resivct is. in thH In stance, merely an obstinate pride which, if persisted in, will wreck two lives." "Quite right." agreed the venerable spinster. "There let us have no more nonsense. You two run out on th piazza and settle on the wedding day." When Miss Van Busk Irk spoke In that tone she was accustomed to beig obeyed and this occasion was no i cent ton to the rule. Sympathetic Comrade. Two Virginia darkles were huntlnp one day, one a very large man, In deed, and heavy, and the other slight and meager. Now the big fellow ac cidentally shot himself rather seri ously, but nil his companion had to say by way of sympathy was: "Say. you look heah. You'd better run an' keep runnin" as fast as yo-i kin an' as long as you kin. 'cause I shore cut.'t carry you far." ' MAKE O. A. C.
