OllArilin XIV (Conllnned).
TUB mucker opened his eyes. Close
kbove him bent the radiant vision of
Barbara ilardlng's face. On his forehead
he felt the soothing strokes of her cool,
soft hand.
lie closed his eyes again to battle with
the effeminate realization that he enjoyed
this strange, hew sensation the sensation
of being ministered to by a gentle woman
c and, perish the thought, by ft gentle
Woman I
With an effort he raised himself to one
elbow, scowling at her.
"a'wan," he said "I nln't no boob dude.
Cut out de mush. Lemme be. Beat ltl"
Hurt moro than she would have cared
to admit, Barbara. Harding turned away
from her ungrateful and ungracious pa
tlcnt to repeat her ministrations to the
Frenchman. The mucker read In her ex
pression something of the wound his words
had Inflicted, ana he lay thinking upon
the matter for some time, watching her
deft, White fingers as they worked over
the scarce-breathing Therlere.
Ho saw her wash the blood and dirt
from the ghastly wound In the man's chest,
and as he watched he realized what n world
at courago It must require for a woman
ff her stamp to do gruesome work of this
sort
Never before would such a thought have
occurred to him. Neither would he have
cared 4at' all for the pain his recent words
to tho girl might have Inflicted. Instead,
ho would have felt keen enjoyment of her
discomfiture
And now another strange, new emotion
took possession of him. It was nono other
than a desire to atone In somo way for
his wordsl What wonderful transforma
tion was taking place In the heart of tho
Kelly gangster. i
"Sayt" he brought out suddenly.
Barbara Harding turned' questioning
eyes toward him. In them was tho cold,
haughty aloofness again that had marked
her cognizance of htm upon tho Halfmoon
that look that made his hate of her burn
moro fiercely. It took tho mucker's breath
away to witness It, and it made the speech
ho had contemplated moro difficult than
ver--nay, almost Impossible.
Ho coughed nervously, and tho old dark,
lowering scowl returned to his brow.
"Did you speak?" asked Miss Harding
Icily.
Billy Byrno cleared his throat, and then
there blurted from his lips not the speech
ho had" Intended, but a BUdden, hateful rush
of words which seemed to cmanato from
another personality, from one whom Billy
Byrno once had been.
"Ain't dat boob croaked yet?" ho
growled.
The shock of that brutal question brought
Barbara Harding to her feet. In horror
she lookedjdown nt the man who had spoken
thus of a bravo and noblo comrade In tho
face of death Itself. Her eyes blazed
angrily, as hot, blttor words rushed to her,
lips, and then of n sudden she thought of
Bymo's self-sacrlflclng heroism In return
ing to Thorlcre's sido In the face of tho
advancing SamurnI ; of tho cool courago
he had displayed as ho carried tho uncon
scious man back to the Jungle: of tho de
votion, almost' superhuman, that had sus
tained htm as he struggled, uncomplaining,
up tho steep mountain path with the bur
den of tho Frenchman's body, the whllo
his own llfeblood left a crimson trail be
hind htm.
Such deeds and those words were Incom
patible tylth the samo Individual. There
could bo but one explanation Byrne must
be two men with as totally different char
acters as though they possessed separate
bodies.
And who may say that her hypothesis
was not correct7 At least, It seemed that
Billy Byrno was undergoing a metamorpho
sis, and at the Instant there was still a
question as to which personality should
eventually predominate.
Byrne turned away from the reproach
Which replaced the horror In tho girl's
yes, and with a tired sigh let his head fall
upon ma outstretched arm. The girl

IT CAN ONLY HAPPEN ONCE!
Because you havo only ONE pair of feet to lose !
Skating is fun I
It ia thrilling to roll down the graded street and to make a sharp whizz
of a curve at the corner!
It is thrilling to go skimming over the asphalt tacked on to the back of an
automobile or a wagon 1
The breeze feels fino for two minutes.
BUT
Which would you rather have?
Two minutes of daredevil motion and a possible chance of a lifetime with
as much action in it as a pair of crutches will allow
Or the courage to say "NO, it is dangerous to skate on the street," and the
certainty that you at least will go through life on foot and not in a hospital bed?
Perhaps you pan think of places to. skate in safety. Much may be said of
skates in stories, drawings and essays!
P. S. Boys, do not let the girls get ahead of you! Last night the girls'
stories totaled six ahead of yours. ',
Our Postofiicc Box
Eleanor Weiss and her playmate Mary,
whose last name, by the way, we would
dearly love to know, have decided to spend
some hours of their Bummer vacation earn
ing pin monoy. How they will spend this
money Is a mystic secret. Mary and
Eleanor have great times together. Last
week they went to visit Eleanor's uncle and
played in his beautiful rose garden. And
that's why, when the mall man came here
early one morning, two lovely rosebuds
peeked their pretty heads out of a wee let

About Birds and a Bat
I!y THEI.MA. LEDDY, Hprarue Street.
Every mornng when I have finished my
breakfast I get a saucer of bread and bring
It out on the porch and feed It to the
birds. Some ore so tame that they don't
e.ven rly away, I like birds very much and
one day I found a sparrow on the pavement
tn I picked It up and it looked like It was
deUd, but I thought that It I put It In a
warm place that It might only be numb and
come o life, for It was a very cold tfay.
But It was really dead, and I felt very sorry
for U, so I put It In a box and qtutted the
box with cotton. Then J put It In the
ground, and In the summer violets grow
- over It. '
This afternoon I saw an animal ou our
porch that looked very much like a mouse.
Mother came out and touched It with a stick
and. It spread ita wings out and opened Its
, mouth. It was about as big as a silver
dollar and It had teeth Ilka, a mouse. It
was a bat !

watched him for n. moment, a puzzled ex
pression upon her face, arid then returned
to work bn Therlere.
The Frenchman's respiration was scarce
ly appreciable, yet after ,a time he opened
his eyes and looked up wearily. At the
Sight of the girl ho smiled and tried to
speak, but a fit of coughing flecked his lips
with bloody foam, and ngaln he closed his
eyes.
Fainter and fainter came his breathing,
until It was with difficulty that the girl de
tected any movement ef his brcastjiwhat
ever. She thought he was dying, and she
was afraid.
Wistfully she looked toward tho mucker.
The man still lay with his head burled In
his arm, but whether he were wrapped In
thought. In slumber or In death the girl
could not tell.
At the flnal thought she went white with
terror.
Slowly she approached the man, and,
leaning over, placed her hand upon his
shoulder.
"Mr. Byrne," she whispered.
Tho mucker turned his face toward her.
It looked tired and haggard.
"Wot Is It?" ho asked, and his tono was
Bofter than she had ever heard It.
"I think Mr. Therlere l.i dying," sho said,
"and I I Oh, I am no afraid I"
The man flushed to tho roots of his hair.
All that he could think of were the ugly
words ho had spoken a short tlmo beforo ;
and now Therlere was dying.
Byrne would have laughed had any one
suggested that he entertained any other
Bcntlment than hatred toward the second
officer of tho Halfmoon that Is, he "would
have. 24 hours before; but now, quite unex
pectedly, he realized that- he didn't want
Therlere to die.
Then It dawned upon him that a now
sentiment had been born within him a sen
timent to which he had been nn entire
stranger all his hard, lonely life friend
ship! He felt friendship for Therlere! It was
-unthinkable, and yet tho mucker know that
It was so.
Painfully he crawled over to the French
man's side.
'Therlere!" he whispered In tho man's
car. 4
Tho ofllcer turned his head wearily.
'Do youso. know me, -old pal?" asked the
mucker, and Barbara Harding know from
the man's volca that thero wero tears In his
eyes. But what sho did not know was that
they welted thero In response to tho words
tho mucker had just Bpokcn the nearest
approach to words of endearment that had
ever passed his lips.
Therlere reached up and .took Byrne's
band. It was evident that he, too, had
noticed the unusual quality of tho muckcr'B
voice,
"Yes, old man," ho said faintly. And
then: "Water, please."
Barbara Harding brought htm a drink,
holding his head against her kneo whllo ho
drank. Tho cool liquid seemed to give htm
new strength, for presently ho spoko quite
strongly:
"I'm going, Byrno," ho eald ; "but beforo
I go I want to tell you that of all tho bravo
men I have over know'n, I have learned
within the last few days to believe that you
are the bravest. A week ago, I thought
you were a coward I ask your forgive
ness." "Forget It," whispered Byrne, "fer a week
ago I guess I was a coward. Dero seems
to be more'n one kind o' nerve I'm Jest a
learnln" of tho right kind, I guess."
"And Byrno," continued Therloro, "don't
forget what I asked of you before we tossed
up to seo which should enter Oda Yorlmoto's
house."
"I'll not ferget." said Billy.
"Good-by, Byrne." whispered Therlere.
"Tako good care of MIbs Harding."
"Good-by, old pal," said the mucker. His
voice broke, and two big tears rolled down
the cheeks of "de toughest guy on do Wes'
Side."
Barbara bent over Therlere'.
"Oood-by, my friend," she said. "God
will reward you for your friendship, your
bravery and your devotion. Thero must bo
Prue's Tea Party
Ur HOSE FISHER.
It waa a wonder that people didn't like
Prue better, She had almost everything
to make them like her, pretty clothes and
a pretty face, and a sunny smile and lots
and lots of toys, but the fact remains that
she was not a favorite.
"May I give a tea party this afternoon?"
she asked of her nurse one day.
"Indeed, yes," said the nurse.
"Call up your friends on the telephone
and J will ask' cook to glvo you some
cookies."
"And layer cake."
"And milk."
"And cocoa," added Prue.
"And fruit"
"And candy," continued Prue,
"And nuts."
"And-7" asked Prue.
"That's all," said nurse.
"I want more," said Prue, stamping her
foot.
"You won't get It," said nurse, yawning
and picking up a book. "Co out of the room
and don't say another word or you can't
have your tea party at alL"
Prue thought It the wisest course to
obey, and the next moment sho was calling
up everybody she knew and asking them
to her tea party. She asked 13 little girls
and at 4 they arrived. But Instead of wel
coming them, Prue was sulking badly. She
would not shake hands and howled and
cried In a corner of the nursery in such a
naughty way that three timid little girls
made a rush for their hats and started
home. Then the next moment she upset hot
cocoa over the dress, of Betty Baker and
Betty asked to be excused while she
changed her dress and never came back.
Then Prue slapped two of the Darlington
girls because they disarranged her dolls,
and they went crying home, and so hulf
of Prue's little guests were gone. It's really
too sad to say much about but the other
six soon followed and. Prue. was left alone
with her expensive French bisque doll who
couldn't talk or play with her and was
far to handsome to cuddle,
"You see," said the nurse, "every other
Uttla girl would have had a lovely time.
Learn a lesson, Miss Prue. Nobody will
ever love you if you are selfish and Ill
mannered "
"Yes, nurse," said Prue gravely. Nursa
stopped la the middle of another, yawn and
lsoiitd hard at tfc 1KU girl,
"lr4& btliv you h learotd your les
son," she said.
a special honor roll In heaven for such noble
men as you."
Therlere salted sadly.
"Byrne will tell you nil," he said, "ex
cept who I am he does not know that"
"Is thero any message, my friend," asked
the girl, "that you would like to have me
deliver?"
Therlere remained slleht r a "moment as
though thinking.
"My name." he said. "Is Henri Therlere.
I am tho Count de Cadenet of France.
There Is no message, Misi Harding, other
than you BeS" flt to deliver to my relatives.
They lived In Farls the last I heard of
them my brother1 Jacques Was n deputy."
His volco had become so low and weak
that tho girl could scarco distinguish his
words. Ho gasped onco or twice, and then
tried to speak again. Barbara leaned closer,
her ear almost against his lips.
"Oood-by, dear."
The words were almost Inaudible, and
then the body stiffened with a little convul
sive tremor. Henri Therlere, Count de
Cadenet, passed over Into the keeping of
his noble ancestors.
"He's gone I" whispered tho girl, dry
eyed, but suffering. Sho had not loved this
man, sho realized; but she had learned to
think of him as her one true friend In their
llttlo world of scoundrels and murderers.
She had cared for him very much It
waa entirely possible that somo day sho
might havo come to return his evident af
fection for her. She knew nothing of the
seamy sldo of his hard life. She had
gushed ndthing of tho scoungrelly duplicity
that had marked his first advances toward
her.
She thought pf htm only as a truo, bravo
gentleman; and In that she was right, tor
whatever Henri Thorlero might have been
In the past, the last few days of his life
had revealed him In tho truo colors that
birth and nature had Intended him to wear
through a brilliant career. In his death ho
had atoned for many slnB.
And In those last iow days ho had trans
posed, all unknown to himself or tho othor
man, a. measure of tho gentility and chivalry
mat were nis Mrthrftht: for. unreal inc.
Billy Byrno was patterning himself nfter
tho man ho had hated and had come to
love.
Aftor the glrl'B announcement, tho jnuck
er continued to sit with bowed head staring
at tho ground. Afternoon had deepened
Into evening, and now the brief twilight of
the tropics was upon them In a few mo
ments It would bo dark.
Presently Byrno looked up. Ills eyes
wandered about tho tiny clearing. Sud
denly ho ptaggcrcd to his feet.
Barbara Harding sprang up, stnrtlcd by
tho ovldent alarm In tho man's attitude.
"What Is it?" she whispered. "What Is
tho matter?"
"Do chink!" ho cried. "Whore's do
chink 7"
And, suro enough, Oda Isoka had dlsap
pcarod! Tho youthful Dalmlo had taken advantage
of tho preoccupation of his captors during
tho last moments of Therlere to gnaw In
two tho Brass rope which bound him to
tho mucker, nnd wMi hands still fast bound
behind him had Blunk Into the Junglo path
that led downward toward his village.
"They will bo upon us again now at any
momont." whispered thn girl. "What can
wo do?"
"Wo better duck," replied tho mucker.
"I hates to run away from a bunch of
chlnkB, but I guess It's up to us to beat It."
"But poor Mr. Theflcro?" asked the girl.
"I'll have to bury him closo by," replied
tho mucker. "I don't tlnk I could pack him
very fer tonight I don't feel Jest quite flt

burled him here, would you?"
"Thero Is no othor way, Mr. Byrne," re

Doctor Goat was seated In his Morris
chair reading tho Goatvllle paper. Every
little while he would laugh and laugh.
Finally his wife could stand It no longer,
so she Inquired.
"What ARE you laughing at?"
"I am laughing at Billy Bumpus."
"And where, pray. Is Billy Bumpus?"
asked his wife.
"Ho was all stung up by bees, nnd when
I went over to seo him I coutdnlt see any
thing for the bites. Ha ! Ha !"
"You should not laugh that way nt one
of your patients. I should think you would
bo ashamed of yourself!"
, "I know, I know, but If you could have
seen that fellow you would have laughed,
too. Eyes as big as saucers and Just as
meek as a lamb. He thinks he Is very
brave. Going to war and all that."
"Well, ho Is bravo If he lets you attend1
to him!" exclaimed Mrs. Goat.
"What's that?" Doctor Goat almost

mnybo I kin hide his grave bo's dey won't
tumblo to It.'
"Yoil' nro In ho condition to carry him
at all," said tho girl. "I doubt If you can
go far, even without a burden."
Tho mucker grinned.
"Youso don't know mo, miss," ho said,
and, stooping, he lifted tho body of tho
Frenchman to his broad shoulder and
started up the hlllsldo through tho trackless
underbrush.
It would have been an Impossible feat
for an ordinary man In the pink of condi
tion but tho mucker, weak as ho was from
pain and loss of blood, strodo sturdily up
ward whllo tho marveling girl followed
closo behind him.
A hundred ynrds nbovo tho spring, they
came upon a little level spot, and hero with
tho two swords of Oda Yorlmoto which
they still carried, they scooped a shallow
gravo In which they placed all that was
mortal of tho Count do Cadonet.
Barbara Harding whispered a short
prayer above tho now-mado grave, whllo
tho mucker stood with bowed head bcsldo
her. Then thoy turned to their night ngnln
up the wild faco of tho savage mountain.
Tho moon camo up nt last to lighten tho
way for them, but It was a rough and dan.
gcrous climb nt beBt In many places they
wero rorced to walk hand-ln-hnnd for con
siderable distances, nnd twlco tho mucker
had lifted tho girl bodily In his armi to
bear her across particularly dangerous or
dtdlcutt stretches.
Shortly after midnight they struck a
small mountain stream up which they fol
lowed until, In a natural cul-de-sac, they
camo updn Its sourca and found their fur
ther progress barred by precipitous cllffn,
which rpso abovo them, sheer and unscal
able. They had entered tho llttlo amphitheater
through a narrow, rocky pass In tho bottom
of which tho tiny stream llowcd, nnd now,
weak' and tired, tho mucker was forced to
admit that ho could go no further.
"Who'd 'a' thought I was such a sissy?"
ho exclaimed disgustedly.
"I think that you aro very wonderful, Mr.
Byrne," replied tho girl. "Few men could
havo gono through what you havo todny
and been nllvo now."
The mucker made a deprecatory gesture.
"I suppose wo gotta mako do best of It,"
he said. "Anyhow, dlB ought to mako a
swell Joint to defend."
Weak as ho wns, ho searched about for
some soft grasses, which he threw In a
pile beneath a stunted tree that grew well
back In the hollow.
"Hero's ycr downy," ho said, with nn at
tempt at Jocularity, "Now you'd better hit
de hay, fer youso must bo dead fagged."
"Thanks," replied tho girl. "I am nearly
dead."
So tired was she that sho was asleep
almost as Boon ns sho had found n com
fortable position In tho thick that of grass,
so that sho gave no thought to the strango
position ln which she was.

PUBLIC OPINION FORCE
TO END GREAT WARS,
MRS. FELS DECLARES
Member of Ford Party ahd
American Delegate on Inter
national Conference Board
Analyzes Conflict
CONSIDERS MEXICAN ISSUE
"What are tho pacifists the organised
pacifists sitting In conference at Stockholm
doing today to preserve peace between
this country and Mexico?"
This query almost nation-wide was
voiced by Mrs. Joseph'' Fels, n member of
tho Ford party and formerly ono of the
American delegates on the International
board.
"We In America who are Interested In
preserving friendly relations between the
United States nnd Mexico," Bald Mrs. Fels,
"ore actively working toward that end.
What of tho Conference Board ocr thero?
"Personally, I am working to avert war
with Mexico," continued Mrs. Fels. "The
only way to nchlovo that result Is to show
the Mexican sldo of the question to the
American public That cannot be done by a.
group of people on the other side of tho
ocean."
That It was possible for a neutral board,
situated Info distant country, to Impress n
foreign government with Its criticisms Mrs.
Fels thought Improbable.
"It Is futile for an unconsidered confer
ence to nddrcBS Itself, with whatever propo
sition, to governments direct. You can
reach a government only through Ha own
people."
'Thus a member always should work In
his or hor own country, using his per
sonal Influence with membera of tho gov
ernment or any other lending persona, but
mainly forming public opinion nnd Inciting
publla action through publicity that aims
at propaganda.
"No government will ncccpt your terms of
peace or oven listen to them! but each gov
ernment heods its people's admonition as to
tlmo nnd terms of peace."
MRS. FELS SUGGESTION,
Mrs. Fels then suggested that tha Stock
holm cnnfcroiica bo transmuted Into n flexi
ble body, aiming at tho formation of en
lightened public opinion throughout tho
world for tha bringing about and tha preser
vation of peace and good will throughout
tho world.
"Lot thoso who mako up this body work
each In his own country, coming together
when advisable for wise, helpful conference.
Let a strong central commltteo be in Amer
ica for needed propaganda nnd for tho bind
ing together of all the strands of tho world
propaganda."
Mrs. Fels was one of tho Phllndolphlans
to accompany Mr. Ford on the Oscar II.
"My personal motive," said Mrs. Fels In
revlowlng her attitude then, "in Joining the
oxpedltton wns a general Impulse to take
part In a movement toward International
ism. "The design of thd-expedltlon was to ad
vertise peace, to assemblo' and focus public
opinion In all neutral countries, to vitalize
tho pcaco Idea.
"Tho intention was good, but miscarried
becauso peaco cannot be treated as a sim
ple social fact. Pormancnt peace can never
bo achieved by a mere peace propnganda
or by the existence of Hngue tribunals
or arbitration boards. An International po
lice would bo as Ineffective. Peace depends
upon a reversal of tho conditions that cause
war."

"Peace Is not to bo secured by shouting

Board of Recreation. Mr. Stecher agrees
with tho Btntcment of Dr. Samuel G. Dixon,
Pennsylvania Commissioner of Health, In
which ho says that tho majority of students
get n montnl education but not physical
education, and that tha physical training
of tens of thousands of young people Is be
ing neglected.
Mr. Stecher nays that Philadelphia Is
rectifying this orror ns fast as possible.
"Philadelphia school children will all have
flvo hours of physical training each week
when school opens In the fall as a result of
tho newly passed resolution submitted by
Dr. Edward Martin and passed by tho Board
of Education," Bald 'Mrj Stecher when dis
cussing tho statement of Doctor Dixon.
'This city Is embarking In new channels.
Every Philadelphia school child In the ole
mentary grades and the high schools, as
well, will havo two hours weekly of regu
lated physical training, which Includes per
sonal hygiene work, advocated by Doctor
Dixon, and th'iro will also bo three hours of
regulated outdoor work."
Mr. Stecher sayrf the physical education
work wilt bo accredited and that pupils will
not be promoted or graduated without the
necessary credits given' for taking tho re
quired physical training.
In tho pnst tho grado schools havo had
five 12-mlnute periods a week; now they are
to have one hour a day, Mr. Stecher .nays
too much credit for tho Innovation cannot
bo given Doctor Martin, who was chnlrmnn

Doctor Dixon's statement, Issued today,
says In part "Some faw students hftVe d'
voted themselves to a greater or less) degrco
jo competitive sports, this number is but a.
small percentage, our curricula are often
so punned that they make physical flevil
opment difficult or Impossible. To lay th
foundation of health, there should be1 proper
physical training under tho supervision of.
speeraliy trained medlral men, beginning In
the elementary school and going through
the college course. A few years of training
In youth nnd early manhood and woman,
hood would serve to Instill habits of per
sonal hygiene, which would add Inestimably
to our future welfare, Individually and as
a nation.
Today Sweden Is leading the world In
systematic education, with a resulting high
average tit citizens, prepared to talta their
part In tho defense of their homes."
