Him t By BARRY PRESTON. "You are very much in love with him, dear, aren't you?" Mrs. Brevort inquired, not without a certain doubt ful note in her tone, which seemed to hint that such possibly might not be the case. The girl who stood by the window, looking out at the uneven pavements of the Roman street, turned slowly and smiled. In that smile were weari ness and subtle understanding and pa tient resignation. "Yes, I am very much in love with him, Aunt Elinor,"' she said in a color less voice, as if she were saying tbe words more because they were expect ed of her than for any other reason. Mrs. Brevort smiled her open ap proval. The little frown of doubt which for the past few moments had wrinkled her brow suddenly disappear ed. She crossed the room to the irlrl'a side and threw an arm about her. "Of course, dearie," she cooed, "your happiness is my first, I might almost say my only, concern. No one realizes better than I the portent of this step that all your future, all your lifelong happiness, depends upon It. No one, I think you'll admit, too, is more averse to the majority of these marriages than I am, but the duke is so utterly differ ent from all the other eligible men we have met. He Is not seeking your money, dear, for he is immensely wealthy in his own right He is an upright, honest, splendid type of an more like our own men in America, I think, than any one we have seen. Isn't that your Impression of him?" "Yes," said the girl in the same col orless voice. Mrs. Brevort's pale face grew rather eager, "bomehow I have felt from the first that your destinies were linked, yours and his," said she, "but when he talked with me this afternoon I gave him no definite answer. I let him un derstand that the matter rested pri marily with you; that it was your hap piness that was at stake. "He didn't seem quite to understand my attitude at first, but be was per fectly charming about it, as he Is in everything. He said I was to speak to you.ind that he would call for me this afternoon at 4 In the road car, and while we went out to the aqueduct I could give him my final decision, or, rather, yours." The girl had turned again to the win dow. She was looking abstractedly at the passing crowd In the street below. Her brow was furrowed by a little disfiguring frown. Her lips were set tightly together. Her eyes were trou bled. "So I suppose I am to give him a fa vorable answer, am I not?" Mrs. Bre vort suggested tentatively. The girl was silent. The troubled look In her eyes grew more pronounc ed. Her aunt watched her narrowly and with growing impatience. "Peggy, dear, I asked you a ques tion," she reminded her niece. "Is it a favorable answer I am to give?" The girl shrugged her dainty shoul ders. "Yes, yes; oh, yes!" she said hur riedly. "It doesn't matter." ner voice suddenly choked. "Nothing matters!" Mrs. Brevort elevated her brows. "Renlly, Peggy'pshe began chidingly, But the girl turned swiftly and left the room, waving hack the older woman, who started to follow her. Something like a smothered sob sounded as the door closed behind her. Mrs. Brevort looked rather nngry for a moment. Then she recovered her usual composure and smiled. But there was something distinctly unpleasant In that smile. She glanced at the bronze clock tick ins unobtrusively on the mantel. It pointed to half after 3. She went to a desk near the front window and from a drawer drew out a bundle of letters. They were all directed In the same hand Peggy's hand. And they were all addressed to Mr. William Hale, at some outlandish Spanish sounding town in Ecuador, South America. Mrs. Brevort smiled again. It had cost her a pretty penny to circumvent the mailing of those letters, hut there are many itching palms in Rome, and what good money will not accomplish, if it Is judiciously placed, Is not worth accomplishing. An open fire burned dully in the grate beneath the mantel. Mrs. Bre vort stepped briskly over to It and fed the bundle of letters to the flames. She watched grimly until there was nothing left of them save a few gray white ashes. Then from another drawer she took out another bundle of letters. They were thick letters, all of them. The sprawling superscriptions were all for Peggy, and they were postmarked with the name of the Spanish town in Ecua dor. Other itching Roman palms had been soothed In the conventional way to bring those epistles into Mrs. Brevort's possession. These, too, she consigned to the grate, watched them burn and then arrayed herself for ber appointment with the duke. At precisely 4 be came in tbe road car. She descended tbe stairs, greeted him effusively, and together they whirl ed off toward the aqueduct. Scarcely had Mrs. Brevort taken her ieparturo wheu there came to the ho :el a brisk, broad shouldered young man. rnmistakably he was American, mid unmistakably he had been endur ing recently all the discomforts of continental travel wheu such travel necessitated h:'.ste. He glanced ut the register, saw thereon a certain name and heaved a mighty sigh of relief, but even as he searched his pockets for his cardcase the owner of the name that had caus ed Ills recent sigh came tripping down the stairs arrayed for a walk through the autumn streets, and, turning around, the young man stood staring open mouthed at Peggy in all ber glory. The girl's eyes, too, lighted suddenly. She gave o little gasp of surprise. In an fnstnnt the young man was beside her, and both her hands were in bis own. Peggy, Peggy!" he was saying breathlessly. "Billy," she was saying in a low, shaken voice, "where on eartb did you come from?" In a masterful maimer he led ber to the street. Once outside they both be gun talking as fast as they could. "Not n word from you all this time," he declared, "not one single, solitary word. I couldn't stuud it any longer. I left the bridge building down there and my chances for eternal fame nud fortune with It, all In the bands of Johnson, and came over here to learn the worst. I even had to cable north to Daniels to find out where you were." "Billy, what do you mean?" she ask ed in unbelief. "I have written and written and never had one single an swer from you." "Eh? What's this?" said he. "I've written every day of my life. You haven't got them?" Ills eyes grew suddenly dark. "Where's that precious aunt of yours?" And suddenly Peggy remembered In the midst of her new found happiness just where her aunt was. "Oh, heavens, Billy!" she said. "Why didn't you come before?" "Why?" "Why?" she repeated. "Why, indeed! Aunt Elinor Is out motoring this after noon with the Duke of Selena. She has gone with him to tell him I'll mar ry him. I thought I thought when you were silent when I didn't hear from you" His teeth came together with a click. He faced her there in the Roman street, with the Roman sunshine flood ing it with mellow warmth. "To tell him you'll marry him!" he repeated. "Peggy, you're not going to, ore you?" She looked at him archly. "It's tbe only offer I've bad recently," she said In mocking happiness. 1 "You'll have another right away," said be, with determination, "one (bat I dare you to turn down," he added, with a boyish laugh. "But the duke!" she said breathless ly. "I'm probably engaged to him by this time. Aunt Elinor wastes no time." "I'll attend to the duke and your aunt too," said he grimly. "What time will they return?" "Almost any minute now," said she. "Come, let's go back. We mustn't miss them, must we, Billy?" Supervision. "I never know where my husband Is," said the unhappy looking woman. "Oh, well," replied the neighbor who had called around to sympathize, "you have the same comfort that I have. You know your husband is not going to break the law and get Into serious difficulty." "I'm not so sure that I don't wish John were more reckless. If they put him in jail I'd at least know exactly how he spends his evenings." Wash ington Star. t PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT. 3 Inflammation of the Joints. Arthritis, otherwise inflamma tion of the joints, arises from a variety of causes, internal or ex ternal that is to say, it may be the accompaniment of some gen- oral disease or it may be due to an Injury. When it arises from an injury It Is the simplest form of acute joint Inflammation and the easiest to cure. But the pn tient must be sure that it really is caused by injury alone und Is not associated with some un healthy process going on In the body. The treatment of acute f arthritis should vary according to the stage of the inflamma tion. Treatment begun Immedi ately after the Injury will some times prevent swelling and shorten the duration of the dis ease. The Joint Should be firm ly bandaged, kept perfectly still and cold applications made. Lat er, after swelling has occurred, hot applications are better and often quickly relieve the pain. Gentle rubbing will help the T swelling to disappear, after which more vigorous massage f may be used, and the Joint may be cautiously moved a little from time to time until free and painless movement is restored. If there is no underlying consti tutional taint recovery from an acute arthritis is usually com plete, but often weeks or months elapse after the injury before the sufferer is entirely J free from occasional twinges and other reminders of bis mis-bap.
