Rev. Smith Boyd proposes to the vestry
to replace the old Vedder court buildings
with model tenements.
CHAPTER XVIII—Continued.
"1 attend a vestry meeting now and
then," be replied, and then he laughed
shortly. "I'd rather do business with
forty corporations than with one ves-
try. A church always expects to con
duct its share of the negotiations on
a strictly commercial basis, while it
expects you to mingle a little charity
•with your end of the transactions."
"The Vedder court property," she
guessed, with a slight contraction of
ber brows.
"Still after It." said Allison, and
talked of other matters.
Jim Sargent returned, and glancing
Into the little reception tete-a-tete as
he passed, saw Allison and came back.
"I didn't expect to see you so soon,"
-wondered Allison.
"We broke up in a row." laughed
Jim Sargent. "Clark and Chisholm
were willing to accept your price, but
the rest of us listened to Doctor Boyd
and Nicholas Van Ploon, and fell. We
Insist on our cathedral, and Doctor
Boyd'B plan seems the best way to
get it, though even that may necessi-
tate a four or Ave years' delay."
"What's his plan?" asked Allison.
"Rebuilding," returned Sargent. "We
can put up tenements good enough to
pass the building inspectors and to
last fifteen years. With the same
rents we are now receiving, we can
offer them better quarters, and, as
Doctor Boyd suggested, redeem our
selves from some of the disgrace of
this whole proceeding. Clever, Ben-
Bible idea, I think."
Gail was leaning forward, with her
fingers clasped around her knee; her
brown eyes had widened, and a little
red spot had appeared iu either cheek;
Iter red lips were half parted, as she
looked up in wonder at her Uncle
Jim.
"Is that the plan upon which they
have decided?" and Allison looked at
his watch.
"Well, hardly," frowned Sargent.
"We couldn't swing Clark and Chis-
holm. At the last minute they sug-
gested that we might build lofts, and
the impending fracas seemed too seri-
ous to take up Just now, so we've
tabled the whole thing."
Allison smiled, and slipped his
watch back in his pocket.
"It's fairly definite, however, that
you won't sell," he concluded.
"Not at your figure," laughed Sar-
gent. "If we took your money, Doctor
Boyd would be too old to preach in the
new cathedral."
"He'll pull It through some way," de-
clared Allison. "He's as smart as a
whip."
Neither gentleman had noticed Gail.
She had settled back in her chair dur-
ing these last speeches, weary and
listless, and overcome with a sense
of some humiliation too evasive to he
properly framed even in thought. She |
had a sense that she had given away
something vastly precious, and which
would never be valued. Neither did
they notice that she changed suddenly
to relief. She had been justified in
her decision.
She took the reins of conversation
herself after Uncle Jim had left, and
entertained Allison so brightly that he
left with impatience at the tea party
which monopolized her.
Later, when Rev. Smith Boyd
dropped In. he met with a surprising
and disconcerting vivacity. In his eyes
there were pain and suffering, and in-
expressible hunger, but in hers there
was only dancing frivolity; a little too
ebullient, perhaps, if he had been wise \
enough to know; but he was not

that evening Houston Van Ploon se-
dately escorted Mrs. Davies and Gail

tive lounging places of all family inti-
mates Gail turSed up her big eyes In

fully poised, she caught the gaze of

Uncle Jim strode out with a hearty
greeting, and, at the sound of the
voices of no one but Gall and Mrs. Da-
vies and Houston Van Ploon, old
"Daddy" Manning appeared In the
doorway, followed by the rector.
"The sweetest flower that blows In
any dale," quoted "Daddy" Manning,
patting Gail's hand affectionately.
The rector Btood by, waiting to greet
her, after Manning had monopolized
her a selfish moment, and the newly
aroused eye for color in htm seized
upon the gold and blue and red of her
straight Egyptian costume, and recog-
nized In them a part of her endless
variety. The black on her lashes. He
was close enough to see that; and he
marveled at himself that he could not
disapprove.
Gail was most uncomfortably aware
of him In this nearness; but she
turned to him with a frank smile of
friendship.
"This looks like a conspiracy," she
commented, glancing towards the
Btudy, which was thick with Bmoke.
"It's an offensively Innocent one,"
returned Manning, giving the rector
but small chance. "We're discussing
planB for the new Vedder court tene-
ments."
"Oh!" observed Gall, and radiated
a distinct chill, whereupon Rev. Smith
Boyd, divesting himself of some cour-
teous compliment, exchanged Inane
adieus with Mrs. Davies and young
Van Ploon, and took his committee
back Into the study.
Mrs. Davies remained but a moment
or so. She even seemed eager to retire,
and as she left the library, she cast a
hopeful backward glance at the danc-
ing-eyed Gail and the correct young
Van Ploon, who, with his Dutch com-
plexion and his blonde English mus-
tache and his stalwart American body,
to say nothing of his being a Van
Ploon, represented to her the Ideal of
masculine perfection. He was an eli-
gible who never did anything a second
too early or a second too late, or de-
viated by one syllable from the exact
things he should Bay.
If the anxious Aunt Helen had
counted on any important results from
this evening's opportunities, she had
not taken into her calculations the
adroitness of Gall. In precisely five
minutes Van Ploon was on the door-
step, with his Inverness on his shoul-
ders and his silk hat In hiB hand, with
out even having approached the elabo-
rate introduction to certain important
remarks he had definitely decided to
make. Gail might not have been able
to rid herself of him so easily, for he
was a person of considerable momen
turn, but he had rather planned to
make a more deliberate ceremony of
the matter, impulsive opportunities
not being in his line of thought
A tali young man in an Inverness
walked rapidly past the door while
Van Ploon was saying the correctly
clever things in the way of adieu; and
before she had closed the door on Van
Ploon, Dick Rodley walked into the
house with careless assurance.
"Gracious, Dicky, you can't come
In!" protested Gall, with half frown-
ing, half laughing remonstrance. "It's
a fearful hour for calls."
"I'm a friend of the family," In-
sisted Dick, calmly closing the door
benind them and hanging his hat on
the rack. "I guess you've forgotten
the program."
"Oh, yes, the proposal. Well, have
It over with."
"All right," he agreed, and taking
her arm and tucking her shoulder
comfortably close to him, he walked
easily with her back to the library
Arrived there, he seated her on her
favorite chair, and drew up another
one squarely in front of her
"I'm going to shock you to death,
he told her. "I'm going to propose se-
riously to you."
Some laughing retort was on her
lips, but she caught a look in his eyes
which suddenly stopped her.
"1 am very much in earnest about
it, Gail." and his voice bore the stamp
of deep sincerity. "I love you. I want
you to be my wife."
"Dick." protested Gail, and It was
she who reached out and placed her
hand in his. The action was too con-
fidingly frank for him to mistake it.
"1 was afraid you'd think that way
about It," he said, his voice full of
a pain of which they neither one had
believed him capable. "This Ib the
first time I ever proposed, except in
fun, and I want to make you take me
seriously. Gail, I've said so many
pretty things to you, that sow, when
1 am in such desperate earnest, there's
j nothing left but just to try to tell you
I how much 1 love you; how much 1
want you!" He stopped, and, holding
her hand, patting it gently with uncon-
scious tenderness, he gazed earnestly
into her eyes His own were entirely
without that burning glow which he
had, for so long, bestowed on all the
young and beautiful. They were al-
most somber now, and in their depth
was a humble wistfulness which
made Gail's heart flow out to him.
"1 can't Dick," she told him, smiling
affectionately at him. "You're the
dearest boy in- the world, and I want
you for my friend as long as we live;
for my very dear friend!'
He studied her in silence for a mo-
ment, and then he put his hands on
her cheeks, and drew her gently
towards him. Still smiling into his
eyes, Bhe held up her lips, and be
kissed her.
"I'd like to say something Jolly be-
fore I go," he said as he rose; "but 1
can't seem to think of it"
Gail laughed, but there was a trace
of moisture in her eyes as she took
hiB arm.
"I'd like to help you out, Dicky, but
I can't think of it either," she re-
turned.
She was crying a little when she
went up the stairs, and her mood was
not even Interrupted by the fact that
Aunt Helen's door was ajar, and that
Aunt Helen Btood just beyond the
crack.
"Why, child, that Egyptian black Is
running," was Aunt Helen's first ob-
servation.
Gail dabbed hastily at the two tiny
rivulets which had hesitated at the
curve of her pink cheeks, and then she
put her head on Aunt Helen's shoul-
der, and wept softly.
"Poor Dicky," she explained, and
then turning, disappeared into her
own room.
Mrs. Helen Davies looked after her
speculatively for a moment; but she

There began to be strange new

There came a famous diplomat,
heavy blond man with a red face
and big spectacles and a high, wide,
round forehead.

large and small, and robed and trou-
sered, centered toward the city of
strong men, and, one by one, presented
themselves, in turn, to a grave and
silent, kinky-haired old darky by the
name of Ephraim.
One motive alone had dragged them
over sterile plains and snowy moun-
tains and bounding seas; the magic
whisper of Money!
Through Ephraim they came to the
stocky, square-standing, square-faced
chess player who was called Allison
They found him pleasant, agreeable,
but hardly of their class. He was so
forceful as to be necessarily more or
less crude, and he had an unpleasaut
fashion of waving aside all the decent
little pretenses about money. That
was the fault of this whole rude coun
try, where luxury had been brought to
the greatest refinement ever known in
the history of the world; lt was so
devoted to money, and the cultured
gentlemen did «.heir best to get all
they could.
To Ivan Strolesky Allison was frank
and friendly, for there was something
in the big Russian which was different
from these others, so he hastened to
have business out of the way.
"Here are your lines," he said,
spreading down a map which had been
brought up to date by hand. "The
ones 1 want are checked in blue. The
others I do not care for."
The grand duke looked them over
with a keen eye.
"1 am rather disappointed," he con-
fessed in excellent English. "1 had
understood that you wished to control
our entire railway system."
"I do," assented Allison; "but 1 don't
wish to pay out money for them all.
If I can acquire the lines 1 nave

"Never peace," denied Allison.
There will never be friendship be-

You might rest for centuries with your
neighbors to the west, but rest is not

Excuse me, but what do you mean?"
and the visitor stared stolidly.
In your affairs of mutual relation-
ship with the land to the west, there
are not less than a dozen causes upon
which war could be started without
difficulty." went on Allison. "In fact,
you require perpetual diplomacy to
prevent war with that country."

"1 think I am a very fair prophet."
said Allison easily. "I have made
money by my prophecy. I have more
money at my command at the present
time than any man in the world, than
any government; wealth beyond han-
dling in mere currency. It can only be
conveyed by means of checks. Let me
show how easy it is to write them,"
and, drawing a blank book to him. he
wrote a check, and signed his name,
and filled out the stub, and tore it out,
and handed it to the visitor for inspec-
tion. The visitor was properly pleased
with Allison's ease in penmanship.
"1 see," was the comment, and the
check was handed back. He drew his
straight-crowned derby towards him.
"1 have made a mistake," said Alli-
son. "1 have left off a cipher." and
correcting this omission with a new
check, he tore up the first one.
"I see." commented the visitor, and
put the second check in his pocket.
That had required considerable out-
lay. but when Allison was alone, he
went over to his globe and made an-
other long, red mark.

one man, a German, ordered drinks.

ed out, and as he did so he queried.

Now, McDermott's education in Ger-
man had been neglected in County
Mayo. About all he knew in that
language was "Yah," so he said it-
enthusiastically.
When he was gone McDermott be-
moaned the fact that his customer had
not paid, and was informed that he
had told the man that it was "all
right."
Mac made a few more inquiries and
learned the opposite of "Yah." "Here-

Rabies Not Limited to Any Season
According to Dr. O. McDaniel, "Dog
Days" do not influence the occurrence
of rabies. The important point, how
ever, Ib that anyone bitten by a dog
suspected of being rabid, regardless
of the season of the year, should re-
ceive proper attention.
The suspected dog should be kept
under observation for at least two
weeks. If it remains well, rabies Is
excluded. If it becomes sick or dies,
the head should be examined by the
Pasteur Department of the State
Board of Health, and the individuals
bitten should report at the depart-
ment for treatment.
Rabies is usually fatal to dogs In
from three to five days after the first
symptoms are observed. Individuals
bitten by rabid dogs, unless under
treatment, become sick in from tive
to nine weeks. The popular belief
that individuals may develop symp-
toms several months or years later
is as false as the belief that Dog Days
cause mad dogs.

"My heart became weak and uncer-
tain in its action and that frightened
me. Then my physician told me that
I must stop drinking coffee or I could
never expect to be well again.
"I thought of Postum but could
hardly bring myself to give up the
coffee.
"Finally I concluded that I owed it
to myself to give Postum a trial. I got
a package and carefully followed the
directions, and what a delicious, nour-
ishing, rich drink it was! Do you
know, I found it very easy to shift
from coffee to Postum.
"Almost immediately after I made
the change I found myself better, and
as the days went by I kept en improv-
ing. My nerves grew steady, I slept
well and felt strong and well-balanced.
Now the old nervousness is gone and
I am well once more."
It pays to give up the drink that
acts on some like a poison, for health
is the greatest fortune one can have.
