It ws the first time In all hla life that he bad been humiliated. And by girl I CHAPTER XI Mr. Crelghton, senior, after the first shock and embarrassment of discover ing the Identity of hla wife' relative, Lady Sylvia St. Croix, with Die teach er, Mix Bchwenckton, whom he had Ignomlnlnusly bribed to abandon hla eon when It waa hla dearest wish that aha should marry him, regarded th episode w'th vast amusement; Mrs. Crelghton and Sylvia liked each other on Bight ; Marvin accepted the con firmation of Ms suspicions with out ward calm, but Inward delirium; but St, Croix, almost aa aoon aa he had delivered the girt over to his mother, had escaped from hla own devastating situation by fleeing to Florida on the pretext of looking Into bta father' In terest there. A the Interests veer not so press ing a to necessitate hi leaving home at thl crucial time, bl action could be Interpreted by hla family In only on way Sylvia must have given him to understand quite unequivocal ly that he, the younger aon, wa not so acceptable substitute for hi elder brothereven though the elder bed long lnc flatly refused to o much aa consider the question of marrying her. Mr. Crelghton could now only bop that the apprehensions he had (uttered lest Marvin bad fallen a prey to th charm of tha teacher of William I'enn achool were Indeed well founded. The very morning after her arrival ahe asked "Cousin Crelghton" to let her bave a talk with blm alone. Shut up with htm In hla atudy, tha revela tion the there made to him of her am bition and determination to exploit herself at Hollywood came to him aa a blow. The only way you could atop me, Cousin Crelghton," aha answered hi argument against her plan, with sym pathy In her ton for bla manifest de jection, "would be to take back your money what' left of It" 8he pushed toward him on the tahle between Ihem a pile of bill a penslv wist fulness In the lovely eye ah raised to bla "I can't go, of course, without your money." And If you can't go, what then? Will you," ,be asked hopefully, "then marry one of my aonr "If I (aid ye to that," ehe replied In alarm, drawing back tha bills, "you'd take back your money! No, If I can't go wltb your money, I'll earn th money. And If you won't give me a Job at mining, I warn you I'll turn evangelist I I've heard there' money In that I'd make pile, for I'd be new American lensatlon an English titled woman prancing and ranting over your broad land a a Soul-Saver 1 I could do It, tool" "Yes, and would, by 0 dl" he ex claimed. "Keep the money, In heav en'a name I" "Thnnk you. Then thnt'a aettled." "If you fall at Hollywood!" ha gloomily Inquired. "Don't wish It on me please I It I fall, I'll come back and marry any of your son that want me. Only I draw the line at St Croix. I couldn't," ah hook her head, "marry St, Croix." "Whyr aked Crelghton testily, wounded In hla paternal pride. "First, because I'm not In love with him. Then I think a girl owe It to her children to pick out a good father for them and St Croix atrlkea me aa too telf-abaorbed to make a auccesa- I nil husband and father. UU own In- C Helen RT-Martiir? teresta would always be Drat .with him." "St. Croix la a very fine young man I" hi father warmly defended him. "Sensible and well balanced. No Wild vagaries " "Hut I like rebel and vagabond so much better than Tine young men'!" "Oh, then you mean," said Crelgh- ton, again picking up hope, "that you will marry Murvln If Hollywood die appoints your ' "Not utiles he ask m to." "If be doesn't ask you to," exclaimed Mr. Crelghton, "he'a a" "Yes, Isn't het I think so too. Hut though I'd never marry a man that hadn't proposed to me, If I never got married, that question need not en rage us. Cousin Crelghton, because I'm not going to full at Hollywood I" e It wa a few dnya later that Mar via Crelghton, one evening after din ner, Handing In front of the library fire, looked down reflectively over bl la Thl a Propoaal, Marvin?" folded arm upon bla radiant young cousin who reclined laxity and with a maddening grace on the big couch that stood before the B replace.

Isn't It J everything 1 But what In particular were you referring tor That you sitting there In front of me you I are the girl I aald I wouldn't marry! Why dldu't some one suggest that I crosa to England and look you over firstr "Probably because they were all too sensible to think you'd pay any at tention to such a good suggestion. And If you bad, you'd probably have found me flown from bom to elud you." "Too see, you were offered to me ha explained, "like a mark-down at Woolworth'al Too cheap an article, It seemed to me, to take aa a wife aeclng I did hav a few dreams of fair women that went not eo pur chasable! And now, It I'm correctly Informed aa to tha fury of a woman scorned,' there can't be the least bop for me can there, Sylvia T "la thla a proposal, Marvlnr "Well, I'm not aura It I. I'm not to conceited aa to think my worth to you could measure up to the worth of a career for which you are highly tal ented I Bo I don't think I am propos ing. I don't bellev I Intend to If I have any Influence with myself." "Let' be engaged, Marvin, until I see how I make out at Hollywood. It I succeed, then no wedding bell for Meety and you'll have to jilt ma again I" "If only," he fetched a deep breath, "you hadn't that fatal talent! For we're matea, Sylvia, It'a written In th heaven 1 I believe, you know, that you and I are mote In the real and laatlng sense for It' you I love, aweet child, not Just your epidermis, lovely aa It la " XXI1IIIII'1XXIXII'IIIXXX1IXI Fragments of Bottle Good Legal Evidence Fragment ( ot a broken bottle one aettled a legal dispute aa to the loca tion of tha original comer post ot a surveyed tract It waa customary In the old surveys to place broken bot tles, crockery or other article that would resist decay In the hole where the corner posts were to be ot and notea of auch deposits were recorded by the surveyor In his book. On this particular occasion, when an effort wa being made to establish the location of a post In Canada which had been act ilxty yeara previously, "My wlmtr "I can think of you a old and wrinkled and I want and love you Just the sume " She warbled, " 'Relieve me If all those endearing' litit that's such old stuffcan't you tell me something a little more Up to duteT "Our sort of love, Sylvia, I so rare (or so It seem to me) that It' an awful pity, don't you think, to let It go by us even for the nuke of a bril liant career?" "Go by you, you meonr ahe aweet ly Inquired; "for I didn't say I wa In lov with any one In particular." "1 said didn't I, that we were mate I'm your mate, too, If yon only knew It as much a you're mine 1" "When did you begin to feel that wayr she asked with a bright Inter est, her eyes shining up Into hi wltb rather a feverish excitement "From the first day I met you In your achool I I couldn't keep off you I You had me In the hollow of your hand!" "Oh, gee, I didn't know It I And, Marvin! I've got to hold on to my self like anything or you'd have me In the hollow of your dear hand and. I don't want to be In any one's hands sot even In your strong and tender ones 1 for I want to act I" "I've aeen you with those achool children I think your bigger career, Sylvia, He In your having a brood of your own I don't shock you, child, do ir "Well, yes, when you ugget a whole 'brood' I I think that' too many! I wish," sighed Sylvia, "I could have bablee and a career, too. If I Insisted on that, would you jilt me?" "Hut, dear child, I can't live In Cali fornia. Not even In New York. My work will always be here. And what kind of a marriage would that be you In California and I In Pennsyl vania?" "You wouldn't give up your work for marriage; why should I IT What Is going to become of marriage when women' profession become aa Im portant and a Inevitable to them aa a man's is to him? I wonder!" "Do you really think. Sylvia, that being a acreen actress la aa big a thing a rearing children T "It would depend, I should lay, upon the tort of children you rear. I'd con sider It an awful waste of life to bring up most of the people one knows!" "But you and I, Sylvia," aald Mar vin solemnly, "might get bo me satis faction from bringing up a family of well, honest fearless truth-scekera, prophet of a new gospel" "Oh, come. Marvin, let'a give them a chance to be themselves I" That's what I want them to be! So few of us are ever ourselves I We're forced Into a mold that' quit unlike our real aelvea! Let'a rear a family that shall be a nucleus to atart aomething " "Hut tt'a so dangeroua, the days, to start anything" "Let them atart th long-looked for 'good-will to men' era. It'a about due. If humanity la to survive, don't you think? Well, what do you aay? Shall wer Thla la tha queerest proposal I ever bad!" "Well, I can't eeem to do anything. even propose to a girl, according to pattern 1" "But you see, Marvin dear, lov lasts such a short time. My career on the screen would last rather longer." "Ours won't be tha kind that doesn't last I It will be the kind that growl It will" "Oh, you're young! You ound six teen I I'm not so sure. But It doe not really matter, doea It? whether It last or not? It'a tha aupreme thing now!" "You admit tbatr b eagerly de manded. "Oh, yes, Marvin I You've gone and dimmed the glory of th screen tor me to that I don't feel bait so enam ored of It aa I did" "I tell you, Sylvia !" He flung hlm lelf on th couch at her aide. "You go on out to your old Hollywood, my dear, and try It out For It you didn't give It a trial, you'd never be satis fled, never be ur you bad not mad a mistake" "I might even throw It up to you that you'd deprived the world of a great star" That'a what I want to avert So you go on out there and then when you decide to be mine, I'll bav you fast!"

Ring's Low-Down on Deep Subject Br RING LARONER To the Editor: It aeern like a If It waa op to m to nettle a big argument which has occurred between Al Mutnaux and Jack Klcran. It must be exclaimed that Mr, Kleran I one of the base ball writer on th New York Time and a prominent golf player. Mr. Mumaux la somewhat of a veteran big league baseball pitcher, who used to be ttie best singer In the big leagues. The argument waa reported by Mr. Harry Salsinger ot tbe De troit Ncrts. Mr. Salsinger la a tall skinny handsome brunette who looks not unlike the writer only be bas more hair. Well It seems like Mr. Mamaux and Mr, Klcran got Into a Ashing argu ment namely, Mr. Mamaux claimed that If you took a bucket the bucket would weigh just the same like as If no fisb bad been dropped into It A live flsb can't possibly Increase the weight of water," aald Mr. Ma maux. "A dead Osh, that la differ ent matter, because tbat would be dead weight" ' Well they went to a laboratory In Detroit where thla bitter argument started and asked the professor of flab which waa right and wbo waa wrong, so the professor said be would make a test but be didn't bave no live Sab on hand that day and Mr. Mamaux would not stand for no test being made wltb a dead fish. Finely they went to a flab market and tbey bad a tub full of water there weigh ing 93 pounds and they found flab named Carp wbo weighed three pounds and they put It In the tub and then weighed tbe total wblcb weighed 07 pound so Mr. Mamaux claimed that clinched bla argument because) in the first place tbe carp waa dead and In the second place be only Increased tbe weight of th tub two pounds whereaa the fish man ad mitted that hi weight before being dropped into tbe tub wa three pounds. That allows bow right I am," aald Mr. Mamaux. "No It don't" retorted Mr. Klerun, "All it provea la tbat nobody wltb any brains should ought to buy fish from thla market" Well friends the reason I feel called upon to horn Into tbla argu ment ta tbat all my life 1 been mak ing a atudy of welghta and displace ments and etc, and 1 will give you a few facta to prove that It la a very tricky subject and a person ahould not ought to get Into no argument In regards to same unless they bav mastered It It you will go Into a restaurant and order a large glass ot milk and weigh It before yon touch cup to Up you will Bod that tha total weight la about one ounce, Then U you win wait a few momenta till a fly drops into tbe glass and weigh it again, why If the fly la Just a common fly and still alive you will And that the weight of the entire project ain't in creased even one fly weight but li the fly waa dead when it dropped in, why then will be a Increased weight of 1U and no hundreds minima a spe cially if the fly wa a horse fly. On th other hand if you tak a pall of water or beer and drop live rat in same, the weight of the pall will Increase exactly aa much aa the rat weighed In the first place and if you make it two rata, th weight will Increase pro rata. But If one or both of tbe rata, happens to get drowned, they will come to tbe surface looking Ilk drowned rata and at th aame time proving that they didn't weigh nothing or they would of nank. It la bind of dangerous to make thl teat In a pall of beer aa the rata goea right to It and r libel to reach the singing stage. The moat conclusive test 1 ever made along these lines waa on tlma when I took a night boat from N. X, to Albany on the Hudson river. First It waa necessary to weigh tb river and then tbe boat when It waa empty and afterwards when all tha passen ger got a board. Then I made aU the passenger come into the weigh ing room and get weighed one by one. When the boat got to Albany tha next morning the river looked Juat Uke it did th last time I waa up there. Prof. Sump of Sever Cnlverslty, New Hampshire, once made a expert' ment which perhaps provea more than tbe foregoing. He weighed all th paaanger that waa going on a trip from New York to Cherbourg and then weighed them all again when tbe hlp got to Cherbourg. Tbey didn't weigh nowhere near a much. Prof Sump waa much Impressed. ((0 v k Ball eradicate. Ina.) Dodging a Debt "Well," aald the lawyer to an ac quaintance, "how goe the world wltb you?" "Splendid I Mognlflcent I" a!d the other.
