At)VENTUHES como to tho Advcn
, turous," bo goes tho old paying-.
And this Is very true. For tho adven
turous heart will always have thift keen
curiosity anent the romanoo of life, with
out whloh existence 1 not worth the. ltr-ing-.
I remember spending n lone and de
lightful day on tho top of a liontlon mo
torbus last spring. In nil tho world there
Isn't any moro thrilling pastime than
riding high up on the top of a London
motorbus. from no other point of van
tage can ono sco any more of real, true,
stirring, pulsating, vibrating life. Ono
ees bo muoh adventure in tho Btreets.
Tho bus swept In closo to tho pavoment
-of course without stopping. Tour true
London motorbus doesn't stop. There
isn't timet Tho conductor leans far out
over tho side, and with a sort of wind
mill motion of his arm, fishes the would
bo traveler In.
And then you clamber to tho top. Thla
clambering is an achievement, a lino art,
a giddy ascent. For unless tho Drltlsh
bulldog grip Is practiced on the ratling,
ons is all too apt to be Jerked over
board. One the seat has been attained, the
iew Is thrilling, particularly If ono
boards the bus at the corner of Oxford
street and Resent street, just at Picca
dilly Circus, I always think that Picca
dilly Circus la spring is tho most won
derful plaoe. Around tho great stone
fountain in the centre of the square the
flower sellers are congregated, wrapped
In tho brilliant colored shawls, , the
rakish hats and tho garish plumes In
which tho bouI of tho London cockney
rejoices, their enormous baskets of yellow
primroses and daffodils, purplo violets and
long-stommed English roses In front of
them, and a perpetual flow of humorous
observations and reparteo issuing from
their fertile minds and directed toward
any probable or lmprobablo purchaser
Who may bo passing by.
"Hoses, lovely roses, only sixpence a
bunch!" comes drifting ncross a lull of
the tralllc, when tho huge, Imposing
policeman at tho corner hold3 up the vast
concourse for a moment.
Then tho motorbus gives a sudden leap,
like a sleuth-hound released, and sets off
at full pneo up Ilegent street, dodging In
and out of the traffic with the most hair
breadth escapes and hair-raising turns
and twists.
One can sea so much of life from the

CHILDREN'S CORNER
Ancient
SOME day when you are out walking,
Eo past a place wherea big building
Is going up and notice tho tools menhave
to work with. If tho building is a. large
one, thero will be steam Bhovols digging
out tho dirt for the foundation. Great
teel girders will bo fastened in place by
automatic hammers. Steam carriers will
be at work carrying the bricks and the
mortar to where it Is needed and men
with tho best of modern tools tools made
of Iron and steel will be at work doing
the actual building.
If' you aro really Interested, and I think
you will be, stand at a safe distance and
count the kinds of tools you can see
the hammers, mortar trowels, shovels,
picks count everything that you see the
men use.
Then see how many of the tools are
made- of iron or steel.
It would almost seem as if a building
could not be erected without those tools,
would it not?
Tet thoso fine tools are very modern
things, nnd soma of the finest buildings
ever built were made with the crudest
of tools.
You all havo seen pictures of the
Pyramids, and of Greek and Roman tem
ples, but did you ever sea o. picture of
the great cave palaces of ancient Ha
waii? All the tools the Hawailons had were
made of wood or stone or bone; for there
were no metals on the Islands and the
IlftWaltans were not an exploring people.
But with the crude tools made ot these
three materials, stone, bone and wood,
tho Hawallans built hewn-stone walls.
They felled great trees and they made
canoes and, barges that safely carried a
hundred or more mcnl
In addition to the building, they manu
factured cloth, they made their weapons
of warfare and they fashioned dwellings
nnd temples and tilled the soli.
They had axes, adzes and hammers of
stone, spades of wood, knives of ivory
and needles of horn and bone. Their
spears and daggers were made of har
dened wood.

happiness or sorrow, pleasure and pain,
loneliness or eoclallblllty tho great city

For as the swaying vehlclo swings
through the trafllo, tho human throng
surges nlcng below, and comedies And

Tho spring evenings nro delightfully
long nnd clear In London, nnd nil tho

Too bus passes through Knlglitsbrldge
and wends Its way past St. George s
Hospital nnd tho ontrnnco to tho park.
Tho flower of London society has re

horseback riders.
Tho bus Is crowded now, and It turns
sharply toward tho Thames Embank

and all the splendor and wealth of tho
West End are loft behind as the river
grows nearer.
When Holborn Circus and Fleet street
are reached, a very different crowd Is

Everything In Fleet street Is fasclnntlng.
Farther on, down by tho river, ono
sees tho human wreckngo of life, sitting
thero alone and friendless on the Thames

derelicts should congteg.ito there but
such has always been tho custom. Per

Thero hundreds of years ago, so history
tolls us, tho warrior Kaupecpco decided
to build n fort that could never bo tnken

Haupu, ho built It. First ho laid high

Partly It was built on the top of the

of that!
And if you nro Interested, read soma

The Daily Story
No Questions Asked
It was not often that Klpley read the
personal column In tho newspapers, but
tho Sunday edition, with n pertlnaotty nil
Its own, invariably gavo this column first
placo on the front page, nnd It caught
his eyes before ho had even opened the
paper. It was tho description of the ring
which attracted him Also, tho engraved
Initials were given as a means of Identifi
cation K O to A S
ICIplev read the personal over again,
after he had given tho wnltcr his order
for breakfast.
"Lost. A ring. Seven diamonds sur
rounding ruby heart. Inlttnls K, Q, to
A. S. Return to 07 Gramcroy Square.
Llborat roward, and no questions asked."
Thoro could bo no mistake. Tho ad
dress was Audrey's, tho Initials he had
had engraved himself, and tho ring had
been their engagement ring.
A ruby henrt mil founded by seven dia
monds, it had been n fnncv of his own.
The ruby uns her blrthstonc. Tho dia

Ho remembered the Inst dny, tho day
when shn had broken their engagement,
They had been In tho jnuslo room over
looking tho llttlo park on tho square.
Tho lilac hedgo was green with bursting
buds, and though tho ground was brown
and windswept, crocus cups roso In dnlnty
rows In nil tho linre flower beds, nnd

The breakfast lay before him untnstod.

his band, tin septttnd tn see her again,
standing tall nnd slim nnd girlish In the
'deep bay windows that dav.
Bho was sony It was wrong It was
entirely her fault but he must havo
known she did not love him not that way.
They had been thrown nt each others
hearts hv kindlv lntcntioncd relatives.
Ho had been her brother's collego chum,
nnd even before she left school ho had
been tho ono man she had reen nnd known
Intimately. It had been only natural that
Bho should like him best. And she did,
best of all. Sho turned to him suddenly
from tho window with pleading, regretful
eyes. Thore was no ono elso. Life was
so long. Only real love, could make It
seem nil too short. And sho did not love
nny ono.
It had been slmplo, cruelly simple, and
unanswerable. Yet he hnd loved her all
the more for It. Another clrl would not
hno missed love In the longest llfo ns
Mis. Klpley Geiard with the prospect
of n million or so nt her disposal.
.Sho hnd worn eIIow, he hnd remem
bered, a cropo silk morning gown, nnd In
her hnndn were tlie rllnw ri nouses he
had brought her. Ho hnd not argued with
her, but hnd merely aBltctl her to keep
his ring.
"It would only signify pain to me," ho
had told her, "because I have lost you,
but to you thero will bo no pain, only ro
membrnnco of ono whom you liked."
And sho had kept It. He had caught the
gleam of Its diamonds on her hand when
hi left her. standing In tho golden spring
sunlight, her faco bent over tho cro
cuses. Tho waiter moved the cooled dishes to
ward him invitingly nnd bo mndo an effort
to cat. When ho left tho restnurnnt the
personal reposed safely In his noto enso,
a torn slip of paper that bridged tho
empty months between two springtimes.
The following week Klpley Gerard,
millionaire, prince of good fellows In tho
upper town, took up tho rolo of private
detective In tho lower town, tho town as
it lies on tho Bunrlse sldo of tho Bowery.
His methods wero not slcuthlike. Thoy
savorod ot tho upper town, nnd consisted
briefly of a systematlo canvns of all
pawnshops and a request In each for a
ring with a ruby heart surrounded by
Boven diamonds.
Tho regularity with which tho porsonal
appeared In tho weekly papers encouraged
him. Particularly ho liked to dwell on Its
last lino: "Liberal reward nnd no ques
tions asked."
It was tho beginning of tho second
week when ho reached tho end of his
quest. Squeezed in between a quick
lunchroom nnd a Yiddish butcher shop on
Hester street ono day Klpley discovered
n. pawnshop ho had overlooked. It was a
ono-countor nffalr, with a woman In at
tendance. As he asked his usual ques
tion sho eyed him curiously nnd denied
having Been tho ring.
"It was a ring of betrothal," said Klp
ley with an easy courtesy that women
loved In him. "I am to marry the lady.
It Is not question of money."
Tho woman hesitated, glancing over her
shouldor at tho back of tho shop. Klpley
drew out a $50 gold certificate. Sho gave
him a swift glance nnd went to the Bafo.
Two minutes later Klpley swung on a 2d
avenue car with tho ring In his vest
pocket. Ho never hesltnted an Instant,
but made his way uptown until ho stood
again in the llttlo familiar square with
Its four rows of aristocratic old resi
dences, As he waited on tho steps of 97 ho
noticed with a queer throb of remem
brance tho rows of yellow crocuses
brightening the bareness of the park. It
had been Just a year ago.
Miss Searlea was at home. The sen-ant
was a stranger, nnd Klpley merely told
him to eay a person wished to see her
with reference to a porsonal In the
papers. Ho waited In the reception room,
and as she entered his back was toward
her. Sho came across tho room eagerly.
"You have brought my ring?"
Ho turned and held the ring up, that
sho might Bee It.
"I have brought It back."
"Klpley!" aho cried. "Klpley, how
could you have it? I lost It myself.
It slipped off in my clove."
"You wero wearing It then?"
She flushed and hesitated under his
steady gaze.
"How did you And it?" she asked.
Klpley referred to the personal In his
hand.
"There were to be no questions asked."
he eald "And there is also mention of a
liberal reward. The ring must be precious
to Its owner."
She caught her breath with a half sob
bing cry and held out her hands to him.
"Give It back to me, Klpley. I would
not have lost it for all the world "
"A liberal reward," Klpley repeated.
"If you will give mo my reward.
"Well?" She met his gaze with eyoa
full of entreaty and hurt dignity. "Of
course. If you wish to retain It "
"Is the ring so much more precious
than the one -who -gave It, Audrey r Can
It be more to you than all the world,
when you merely liked the giver?" Ho
crossed to her elds and laid one arm on
the mantel back of her, "If you can say
to ma now 'I love you, and will let me
place the ring back on your finger as It
was at first, I will give It back. But If
you cannot even now, Audrey '
She lifted her faco to his lips slowly,
open confession shining In her dark eyes.
"I love you now," she whispered.
Please give -ma hack: my ring."
"A liberal reward and no questions
asked," laughed Klpley as he slipped the
diamonds and ruby heart back In their
proper place.
