Helen agreed, wltn i shade of doubt in her tone. ! CHAPTER X. ' Phlllppa and Helen started, a few aornlngs later, for one of their cus- omary walks. The crystalline Oc- .ber sunshine. In which every dls- ant tree and, seaward, each slow- y traveling steamer, seemed to Cain a new clearneaa of outline, lay bnoa the deeD-Dlowed fields, the yellowing bracken, and the red-gold of the bending trees, while the west wind, which had strewn the sea with white-flecked wares, brought town the leaves to form a carpet (r their feet, and played strange music along the wood-crested slope. In the broken land through which they made their way, a land of trees and moorland, with here and there a cultivated "patch, the yellow gorse still glowed in unexpected corners; eneer, scentless flowers made splashes of color in the hedgerows; a rabbit scurried sometimes across , their path: a cock pheasant, after a moment's amazed stare, lowered his head and rushed for unnecessary shelter. The longer they looked up ward, the bluer seemed tbe sky. The grass beneath their feet was as green and aoft as in springtime. Driven by the wind, here and there a whlte-wlnged gull sailed over their heads a cloud of them rested upon a freshly turned little square Of plowed land between two woods. A: flight of pigeons, like torn leaves tossed about by the wind, circled and drifted above them. Phlllppa seated herself upon the trunk of a fallen tree and gazed contentedly about her. ' "If I had a looking-glass and a few more hairpins, I should be per fectly happy." she sighed. "I am sure my hair must look awful." Helen glanced at it admiringly. "I decline to say the correct thing. she declared. "I will on.ly remind you that there will be no cneTJere to look at It." "I am not so sure," Phlllppa re plied. "These are the woods which the special constables haunt by day and by night. They gaze up every tree trunk for a wireless installa tion, and they lie behind hedges and watch for mysterious flashes" "Are you suggesting that we may meet Mr Lessingham?" Helen in quired, lazily. "I am perfectly cer tain that he knows nothing of the equipment of the melodramatic spy. As to Zeppelins, don't you remem ber he told us'that he hated them t and was terrified of bombs." "jly desr," Phllippa remon strated, "Mr. Lessingham does nothing crude" "And yet " Helen begsn. Tet I suppose the man has some thing at the back of his head." Phlllppa Interrupted. "Sometimes I think that he has sometimes I be lieve that Richard must have shown him tny picture, and he has come over here to see if I am really like If , "He does behave rather like that." ,Aer companion admitted dryly. Phliippa turned and looked at her. "Helen," she said severely, , "dont be a cat." "If I were to express my opinion of your behavior." Helen went on, picking up a pine cone and examining- It. "I might astonish you." "You have an evil mind." rhlllp pa yawned, producing her cigarette case. "What you really resent Is that Mr. Lessingham sometimes forgets to talk about Dick." "The poor man doesn't get much chance," Helen retorted, watching the blue smoke from ber cigarette and leaning back with an air of content. "Whatever do you and he Cad to talk about. Phlllppa?" "Literature English and Ger man. Phlllppa murmured demure ly. "Mr Lessingham Is remarkably well read, and he knows more about our English poets than any man I have met for years." "I fcrgot that you enjoyed that sorf of thing." "Once more, don't be a cat," Phil Ippa enjoined. "If you want me to confesa it, I mil own up at once. Tou know what a simple little thing I am I admire Mr. Lessing ham exceedingly, and I And him a most Interesting companion." "Tou mean." her friend observed dryly, "the Baron Maderstrom." Phlllppa looked around and frowned. "Tou are most Indiscreet, Helen." she declared. "I hae learned something of the science of espion age lately, and I can assure you that all spoken or written words are dangerous. There Is a thor oughly British squirrel In that tree overhead, and I am sure he heard." "I suppose the sunshine has got Into your head," Helen groaned. "If you mean that I am finding it a relief to talk nonreense, you are right," Phlllppa assented. "As a matter of feet. I am feellnjr most depressed. Henry telephoned from somewhere or other before break fast this morning to say that he should probably be home tonight or tomorrow. They must have landed somewhere down the coast." "Tou are a most unlutiful wife." Helen pronounced severely. '"I am sure Henry Is a delightful person, even if he Is a little Irresponsible, and It Is almost pathetic to remem ber how much you were in love with him a year or two ago." Some of the lightness vanished from Phlllppa's face. "That was before the war," she sighed. T stXl think; Henry la a dear, tiwmgfc I-jJaa't-altoseUrt r raider-.

I didn't know that I was marrying a fort of sporting Mr. Sklmpole." "I wonder." Helen reflected, "how Henry and Mr. Lessingham will Set on when they see more of one an other." "I really don't care," Phlllppa ob served Indifferently. "I used to notice sooiellmes that was soon after you were married," Helen continued, "tnot Henry was Just a little Inclined to be Jealous." Phlllppa withdrew her tye from the sea. There was a queer little smile upon her lips. "Well, if he still Is," she said. "I'll give him something to be Jealous about," "Poor Mr. Lessingham!" Helen murmured. Phlllppa's eyebrows were raised. "Poor Mr. Lessingham?" she re peated.' "I don't think you'll find that he'll be In the least sorry for himself." "He may be In earnest," Helen reminded her friend. . "You can be horribly attractive when you like, you know, Phlllppa." Phlllppa smiled sweetly. "It Is Just possible," she said, "that I may be In earnest myself. I've quarreled pretty desperately with Henry, you know, and I'm a helpless creature without a little admiration." Helen rose suddenly to her feet. Her eyes were fixed upon a figure approaching through the wood. "You really aren't respectable, rhlllpps," she declared. "Throw away your cigarette, for heaven's sake, and sit up. Some one Is com ing." Phlllppa only moved her head lazily. The sunlight, which came down In a thousand little zigzags through the wind-tossed trees, fell straight upon her rather pal, dell-' ant little face, with its unexpressed evasive charm, and seemed to find a new depth of color In the red-gold or her disordered hair. Her slim, perfect body was stretched almost at full length, one leg drawn a lit tle up, her hands carelessly droop ing toward the grass. The cigar ette was still burning In the corner of her lips. "J decline." she said, "to throw away my cigarette for any one." "Least of all, I trust." a familiar voice Interposed, "for me." Phlllppa sat upright at once, smoothed her hair, and looked a little resentfully at Lessingham. He was wearing a brown tweed knlckerbocker suit, and he carried a gun under his arm. "Whatever are you doing up here." she demanded, "and do you know anything about our game laws? You can't come out Into the woods here and shoot things Just because you feel like it." He disposed of his gun and seat ed himself betveen them. "That is quite all right," he as sured her. -Your neighbor. Mr. Wlndover. to whom these woods ap parently belong, asked me to brlng my gun out this morning and try and get a woodcock." ,r"Cr?.?,ou! Tou don't mean that Mr. "ttlndover Is here, too?" Phll lppa demanded, looking around. Lessingham shook his head. "His csr came for him at the other side of the wood." he ex plained. "He was wanted to go nn the bench. I elected to walk home." "And the woodcock?" she asked. I adore woodcock." He produced one from his pocket took up her relt hat. which was lying amongst the bracken, and busied himself Insululng the pin feathers under the. silk band. "There." he said, handing it to her. "the first woodcock or the season. We got four, and I really only accepted one In the hope that you would like It. I shall leave it with the estimable Mills, on my return." "You must come and share It." Phillppa Insisted. "Those boys of bora's are coming In to dinner Your gift shall be the place de resistance." "Then may I dine another night?" he begged. "This place encourages In me the grossest of appetites." "Have no -fear." she replied. "You will never see that woodcock again. I shall have It for my luncheon tomorrow. I ordered din ner before I ramc out. and through It may be a simple feast. I promise that you shall not go away hungry" "Will you promise that you will never send me away hungry?" ne asked, dropping bis voice for a moment She turned and studied him Helen, who had strolled a few yards away, was knee deep In the golden brown bracken, picking some gorgeously colored leaves from a solitary bramble busn. Lessingham had thrown his cap onto the ground, and his wind tossed hair and the unusual color In his cheeks were both. In their way. becoming His loose but well-fit-ling country clothes, his tie and soft collar, were all well chosen snd suitable. She admired his high forehead and his firm, rather proud mouth. His eyes us well as his tone were full of serlournesa. "You know that you uught to be saying that to some Gretchen swav across that terrible North See." she laughed. "There Is no Gretchen who has ever made my heart shake as you do." he whispered. She picked up her hat and siched "Really." she said. "I think things are quite complicated enough as they are. I am In a flutter all day long, as it la, about your mission here and jour real identify I si.n Iy could not Include a flirtation amongst my excitements." "I have never flirted," he assured her gravely. (To Bo Continued Tomorrow.) -CerrrtxM. m. Jittl. Brawn Co..

DKAR MISS FAIRFAX: I hao known a girl for the past four years, but not until re cently have I grown to love tier. She has shown me In minor ways that she cares for me, but how much Is uncertain. Before I began to show my af fection for her she was intimate with another young man, a friend of mine. She had a dispute with him and told me he was complete ly out of her mind. Recently this man has started to pay her atten tion again, and she Is accepting his invitations while endeavoring to make me believe that he has not the slightest chance of be coming the friend he was. As I love this girl very much and do not wish to lose her, I would appreciate your advice. PERPLEXED. The only direct method of ending such anxieties as yours Is to tell the girl you love her and ask her to become engaged to you. But I know no other way of overcoming your dread of your rival and your fsar that the young lady you so much admire Is playing with you. Shall She Elope? DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: I am sixteen and In lore with a young man who I am sure loves me too. He Is two years my senior. My family and his do not agree as to our marriage. He wants me to elope with him. Do you think tins is right fur me to do? I know my mother and fath er will give in when they find out. as thry do everything they can to make me happy. WORRIED. My dear child, do not dream of eloping. You arc much too young to marry anybody. If this marrlago is a wise one your kind and sym pathetic parents will surely agreee to It later on, without wour taking such an Imprudent step as running away. Do they object to your con sidering yourself engaged to your eighteen-year-old love: Love or Cards? DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: I have been going out with a oung lady for about a jear and a h-ilf. Of late I have been playing cards with other friends. She does not agree to this. The other day I had a date and disappointed her. She found out where I was playing, came and gave me back my presents, and said she did not want to know me. .Now, I like the girl. Please tell me what to do. as I don't know how to get baik to her again. WAITING. I should think you might have some difficulty In getting bck Into the good graces of a girl whom you have so badly treated. The first step will be to give up -ird-playlng, tho second to write and tell her so. asking if she will allow you to come to see her. Perhaps after a while you may persuade her that you care more for htr than for cards if that Is. Indeed, the case. TRY TO AVOID THIS ERROR.

DURING the Boer war England found great difficulty In getting fit men for her army from populations of the great manufacturing cltlbs. an alarming number of f-uch nrosoect recruits had to be re jected for phslcal defects that the country became aroused. It was realized that the workers had been negleited In childhood and Industrially exploited In man hood. One consequence was the starting of medical inspection of schools. During 1916 about 70 per cent of the men who applied for cnll'tmcnt In our navy were rejected becai'je of physical defects. During tho three years prior to our entrance Into the war 250.000 men applied for enlistment in the army, and of ihua 78 nr cent were, rejected. r tan otzectM zar .wmrn; Makes Its The model at the center from for November.

There In a great glee we purchased a blue vase full at red dahlias and wild yellow "baby orchids. But when I came to write the card there, maliciously, in my own hand writlng these Innocent-looking words stared up at me: "With lovlhff greetings to Vir ginia and Phoebe from Barbara, Anne, and NeaL" But that, simple message put Into words the dividing line I hated to recognize one one side the Harri sons, on the other "Barbara Anne, and Neal." Two families my hus band's and mine. Virginia had made it sadly plajn this very day that she dldnt regard me as her "own." I was an outsider to be treated wlwtwh wgrave formality not a sister to go along on her apartment-hunt, to be asked over to dinner on her first nleht In town. With a heart the heavier, because Its pain must be hidden from Neal. I left the florist shop to which we had so gaily cone and walked home Puss in Boots I Jr. 'By David.

"Then why doesn't her said Cap tain Noah, who was busily engaged In making the anchor line fast. "ril tell him to." said little Puss. So he ran up the gangplank and called to the lonely Weathercock. "Why don't you fly down? We'd like to have you come ashore with us." "That's all I wanted to know." said the faithful bird. "Look out! Here she goes." and with a great flutter and flapping of his gilt wings, he landed on the sand. And after that he and Puss went over to the clump of palm trees where Mrs. Noah and the boys were resting. "This would be a fine spot for a picnic," she said. "Did you ever go to one. little Puss Junior?" "What fun," said Puss. "Tve never been to one, although I ouce went to a fair "with Simple Simon." "Welt whllo the boys are busy with Captain Noah mending the Ark. we'll .get a Are started and have our lunch out here beneath the trees." It didn't take long to make a Arc. for Mrs. Noah wished to sur prise the Captain when he came back. She pushed two forked sticks into the ground on either side of the Ore. and then hung the kettle on another which she laid across them, and pretty soon tbe kettle was singing away: Hurry for the Jolly picnic And the crew of the red Noah's Ark! I'll whistle and sing like a bird in the spring. While tho red flames gleam and spark." "There are some nice clams on the beach." said Mrs. Noah. So Puss and tbe Weathercock took a basket and brought back enough for everybody. And I guess Mrs. Noah had everybody. And I guess Mrs. Noah had been to many a clambake, for she knew Just how to roast them In a pile of seaweed and red hot stoves. Well, pretty soon Captain Noah, with Mr. Jonah and the three boys, came out of the Ark and sat down beneath the palm trees, and then all the animals sat around in a ring, for this was the first picnic they had ever been to. "I'm as hungry as a bear." said, little Puss Junior, and then the elephant began to laugh, but the bear only smiled and spread his .bread with honey. Of course, some or the animals didn't eat any or Mrs. Noah's lunch.

Jim Expected Seen. "Do you think Jim will be home soon?" he asked. I understood. His ardent youth hated being confined to our little apartment. He had given me of his best In a high-tide of boyish devo tlon. but no whe wanted to get out and have a little tub after hi day's work. I knew this as well as If he had put It Into words. "Jim will be home by 0." 1 de clared, remembering my husband had said the agent wos going to show them the apartments betwesn 7 and 8. "You run along to a movie, NeaL" "I'm not going to leave yon. Bab sle." declared Neal. slipping his tie a bit tighter In unconscious prepa ration for going out, even as he spoke. "Nonsense, laddie t Ton know I haven't had a minute with Jim to day, and It would be almost a kind ness " "That's right. Babbs. Ton al ways tell me when I'm la tie way. or I won't feel I've the Tight to stay here," and he bolted oat of the place. I smiled with tears in my eyes. I would never forget how Heal had stood by me this spring. It had made me very happy. But as the minutes passed and Jim didn't come, all happiness went from me. It was losg after 10 when my hus band returned. The very , first words he said were these: "Where's that selfish yooar enb? Couldn't he stay home wtlh his sla ter one. evening?" "I sent him oat, Jim." I said col orlessly, waiting- for Jim to come and tilt my chin for his klsa Bat Jim propped Into a chair near the door. "I'm dead tired." he said. Then I took refuge Jn cold sar casm: "Oh. Indeed! Tea we rent too tired to run around town with your sister. So I should" think" you might find enough energy to walk across the room and greet your wife." Jim laughed but there was aa ugly curtness In that laugh: "Well, neither of us ssems te have much energy to spare, or yorj might have had sense enough to go over to the Rdchambeaa some tlo" today." T 'phoned!" I flamed In self-defense. Ton said I should ,phlne!" " "Phoned!" Jnlmleked Jora, "My! dear Anne, there are certain decen cies In civilized' society. My sisters come' home from a year In the West, and, for reasons we won't go Into. I cannot offer them the hospitality of my home. It seems' to jne that my wife would, naturally and without suggestion from me. think of seme way of welcoming them to their home town." A Stsmy Scene. . T didn't think Virginia wanted xne. She wasn't very cordial." "Are you criticising Virginia's manners?" asked Jim. incisively. "Really, Anne, that's very amusing; to say the least. If I didn't find !t so funny I might be' angry, Virginia Is, as you would do well to remem ber, dearer to me than" "Than your wife herself!" I stormed wildly. I was on my feet now. I had backed against the ta ble and was leaning- heavily on It. with my clenched hands held 'forci bly at my sides. My chest heaved and I had great trouble to keep my breath from bursting- out In hoarse gasps. "Anne, do you thmk you can man age to do without making a scene?" he asked in what I took to be a bored tone. "But you don't lovo tne. Yes care more for Virginia than"- Jini laid his hands on the arm f the chair and fairly pushed himself to his feet. He limped heavily as he crossed the room and stood tow ering over me with eyes M,- s "Virginia is my sister no en can touch our love for eeh other. It's been part of us since we were children. But you are my wife Z chose you from all the world. If I hadn't loved you why should I have married you?" he asked grimly. Why. Indeed! What had I brought to Jim but love? Tenderness swept over me. Then came terror terror lest by my own deed I lose that love. "Jim. Jim. darling forgive ma. I've been a stupid. Jealous goose! But I'll make up for It PR go down on my knees to Virginia If you say so. Tour slaters shall ba my sisters, too. Jim." I sobbed my pride broken. "Only love me. darl ing: Love me. love me!" I flung my arms about him plead ingly and Jim drew me close. He laid his lips on my mouth. And I knew that he was mine again In that moment Virginia didn't count. (To He Continued.)
