OF INTEREST T
A Brother Worth Having
By Beatrice Fairfax
There is nothing more splendid than
jfc real friendship between a brother i
And a sister. It seems to me very tragic
that auch friendships are rare. A little
understanding, a little toleration, a
little respect for each other's viewpoint
*nd personality would probably make
% real friendship between brother and !
■later a foregone conclusion.
No brother can prove his real In- ;
Merest In his sister by taking a sus- [
plcloua attitude toward every friend
•he hae or by refusing to let her share f
*he pleasures which he generally ap
proves of for other girls or by selfishly [
3>eglecttng her.
And no sister can cement happy re- I
lations with her brother and herself by
nagging at him for everything he does
•nd by making demands of all sorts '
on him by prying into his affairs.
The way to possess a brother worth ,
having Is to be a sister worth having—
And of course the converse of the
proposition Is equally true.
There are few little things and some :
large ones In which brothers and sis
ters ought to defer to each other. Here
Is Just an outline suggestion of them.
Work them up and apply them to your
own individual cases and see what har
mony In your family they produce.
Brothers, attention. Don't Issue or- |
ders to your sister. If you see her go- ;
lug about with boys and girls of whom I
)*>u suspect evil, make sure you are i
tight and then persuade her that you

Thrilling Mystery of
"The Curve of the Catenary"
(Continued From Yesterday)
"It isn't necessary, anyhow, father.
She la going to be married."
He looked up at me.
"To you?"
"To Martin."
I suppose he knew it had hit me
pretty hard. Maybe he was relieved.
I don't know. He'd rather depended
on her. in a lot of ways. Anyhow,
he didn't go on with it.
"Martin has handed in his resigna
tion," he said, afer he'd lighted a
fresh cigar. "His views about some
things are rather radical. I am run
ning a steel mill, not an eleemosynary
institution."
It gave me a jolt to think of Mar
tin going. We'd never been what you
could call intimate. A fellow could
get just so far with him, and no
further. But he'd seemed to like me,
in his way.
He didn't approve of me, exactly,
and the reason poor Sis had never
had a chance with him was that he
didn't approve of her. He told her
once she belonged to the parasite
class. I guesa she was pretty fond
of him even then, for she took it
awfully hard, and started a sewing
class for "kids" in Qrayton. But it
petered out, because she couldn't sew
herself, and the "kids" got Into it.
"When is he leaving?" I asked,
when I got my breath.
"He will stay until I've filled his
place. If you take It he will work
with you until you think you can man
age alone."
Well, I'd plenty to think of after
that. There were two people I had
to see, and see soon Martin and
Hazel. I made up my mind to tell
Martin the whole thing.
I guess if you've followed this
story you'll know that I wanted to
protect Hazel. I was willing to com
pound a felony or be an accessory
after the fact, or whatever was neces
sary to keep her out of trouble. But
she'd selected her own champion, as
you may say, and I was not it.
I usually see more or less of my
family on Sunday. I try to be at home
for one meal. It's only right. What's
going to become of family life in
America if people belonging to a
household only meet accidentally at
dinner parties^
I d Just as soon have had luncheon
out that day, however, with the
Mater gazing at me when she thought
I was not looking, and Sis staring at
ner plate and nowhere else.
I hadn't tolld them about the rob
bery the night before. It involved
tv " luch that wasn't my secret. But
I had a queer feeling tfiat the Mater
knew about it. She did, as a matter
of fact. How? Well, that's what I'm
coming to. Maybe you know it al
ready. But there was something odd
in the way she looked at me.
Poor Mater, she was having her
own troubles that day, and to think
that no one suspected it!
That's the way things stood on Sun
day of that week. I was to go to the
mil! on Monday, and Martin was to
stand by until I was ready to take up
hs work. Maybe I swelied up some
about the chest at the thought of go
ing back in my new capacity. But my
hat measure remained stationary.
I wasn't any too proud of the way
things were going as to the robbery
v\ hen I thought of the mess things
were in my brain felt like succotash
It was just as the Mater got home
from church that a special delivery
letter came from Lottie Murray. The
*l ate / took il from 'he boy herself on
the doorstep and after looking at Lot
tie s writing on the envelop put it to
her nose.
"Cigarets!" she said grimly, and
gave it to me.
I II copy the note, and you can see
where it put me. It was well enough
when the thing came out later in the
papers for the Mater to throw hys
terics and demand that the whole
family go abroad.
Shes taught me herself always to
help out a woman in trouble, and if
Lottie wasn't in trouble I don't know
what you call it.
"Dearest Ollie," she wrote. "I'm
really in a terrible way. Anderson
can t dance, and sits all day with his
leg on a chair and yaps. Its awful
just to hear him.
I ve made a real hit here—see the
I inclosed clippings. Save and return
them. I want to send them to Flo
Ziegreld. He'll turn green. He threw
me out of the "Follies" just because
I ne\ er mind that . It's a long story
"Here are the facts. I've been
rngaged for a second week, but And
; orson can't work. I've wired to Willy
Randolph, who was my dancing part
, ner last season—and he will get here
on Tuesday. But what about Monday
night?
"This is what I want, old dear. You
1 dance like a breeze. Do you remem
i ber the time we tried out a lot of new
! steps together? I want you to go
. on with me Monday night.
"If you don't want to be recognized
you needn't be. You can wear a wig.
and I'll make you up so your own
I people won't know you.
, "Don't say no without thinking it
lover. Ollie. It will be a lark to you
but it's bread and butter and bookings
; to me.
"Come around to the hotel and talk
!it over, anyhow. I'm desperate.
"L. M."
What would you have done? Dol
lars to cents you'd have done exactly
what I did—clapped on your hat and
?one to the hotel with your lips set in
a. dogged "No." And dollars to cents
after an hour of Lottie curled up in a
damp heap on a couch, with her hand
kerchief a soggy ball in her hand, and
her scrapbook of clippings on the
floor, you'd have surrendered As I
i did.
I didn't want to do it. I give you
my word. I hated myself for giving
Jin. But a crying girl gets me every
time.
I was struck dumb with stage
• right, too. When I thought of it my
leart stopped. We tried out one or
two of the dances then and there but
■ny knees wabbled, and Lottie looked
discouraged. Anderson hobbled in
about that time, looking sour as the
mischief.
Lottie was happ;, however, at the
solution of her troubles, and she
waltzed over to him and slipped her
arm through his.
•Forgiven me yet?" she demanded.
He was pretty fond of her You
could tell It by the way his eyes soft
tened when he looked at her. And
she knew It. But he shook her hand
Oil.
"I 11 tell you to-morrow," he said.
And without noticing me again he
turned and limped out. I didn't think
of it at the time, or of Lottie's ex
planation.
I did something he told me not to
do last night," she said. "He's been
positively vicious all day."
I'm not proud of the fact that I
spent part of that afternoon dancing
around Lottie Murray's hotel sitting
room. But it isn't so hard to explain
after all. I hadn't intended to get
into the thing, but once In and swim
ming hard, it was at least something
to do, something that wasn't connect
ed with murder or theft or suspicion
I'd put in a pretty rotten week, one
way and another, and I was glad to
forget it.
And I'd reached a place where I
was afraid to go on. Tou get it. don't
you? One way and another, I was
about ready to let the whole thing
drop.
It all hinged on old Hareltine.
Somehow I began to wonder on the
way home from Lottie's that after
noon whether the old man was as
Innocent as Martin and the little girl
thought he was. He'd shown a pretty
considerable degree of inventive skill.
Why couldn't he have sent up, in
stead of the messenger, some sort of
arrangement to cut the wire and drop
it where he wanted? ,
I didn't think, of course, that it was
the old chap himself who'd lined up
the Mater and the others. But there
are such things as accomplices.
"Let it drop, Oliver." I said to my
self. "Forget it. And forget the
little girl too. She's in better hands
than yours."
But I couldn't forget her. That was
the devil of it. It shows how far gone
I was when the sight of a girl who
walked like her took me a block out
of my way.
Things thickened up that night, as
if they hadn't been bad enough al
ready.
The evening started out well. We
all dined at home, which hadn't hap
pened in a blue moon. And it was a
pleasant meal, although I thought
both the Mater and Sis were overdo
ing it a bit.
The governor was feeling very fit.
He called me "partner" once or twice,
and began to reminisce with the
roast. Good company, the governor,
when he wants t? be.
But I can tell you my feet got cold
when Sis observed that there was to
be a box party to see Lottie Murray
dance the next night. She looked at
me when she said it.
"You saw her dance last night," I
said. "I—l should think you'd be
sick of seeing a silly girl dancing
things you can do better yourself."
"Is she silly?" Sis asked quickly.
"Well, she's nothing extraordinary,
either for brains or looks. Why?"
But she went on eating, or pre
tending to e&t, without replying. I
must say she had me guessing.
At 8.30 Sis went upstairs.
"I'll catch up with my sleep, fath
er," she said. "You don't mind, do
you?"
He kissed her good-night, and she
went upstairs. At 9 I went to her
door and knocked. I knew there was
something on her mind, something
about Lottie Murray. I thought it was
probably about Martin, too.
I'm fond of Sis, and I thought I'd
better tell her about Hazel and Mar
tin, and get it over with. She's better
put Martin out of her mind and begin
over again.
Curious, isn't it? There were the
two of us—most people would have
said we had everything we ought to
have, and more. And the cold fact
was that each of us was about as
wretched as it was possible to be.
Gee, it's a queer world!
Well, to get on. Sis was not in her
room. She wasn't in the house. I
sat in her boudoir and smoked and
waited, and niy imagination, having
been overfed for several days, took
to having convulsions.
I rang for her maid, but Sis had
sent her out. That made me worse.
I didn't want to worry the Mater. But
I knew Sis had never been out alone
after 6 o'clock since the day she was
born.
At 10.88, after rd worn a path in
the rug, she came in. She wa3 dressed
for the street, and she'd come so
quietly that I didn't hear her until
she had opened the door and closed it
behind her.
"Well?" she said, when she saw
me.
"Where have you been?"
"I'm not going to tell you."
"You are going to tell me."
"Don't try any big brother stuff,"
Ollie, she said, and took out her hat
pin. By Jove, her' hands were shak
ing!
"Does the Mater know?"
"That's not your affair, either."
It's a curious thing about our fam
ily. When we're worried we snap at
each other. I've seen the Mater on
the edge of hydrophobia when Sis was
i.'l, or a new butler's shoes creaked in
the diningroom.
" Don't bite," I said to Sis. "I had
some sort of a silly idea of helping if
—if you were in any sort of trouble.
That is, if anything was worrying you
But I guess I'll go to bed."
I turned at the door. Sis was
standing in front of a mirror, and I
could see that she was crying. Can
you beat it?
I went back. We're an undemon
strative bunch, and I was a bit awk
ward about it. But I got an arm
around her somehow, and she put her
head on my shoulder.
"Tell me about it, old gtrl." I said
But she wouldn't.
"I'm just a fool, Ollie." she said
"You go to bed and forget about me.
If I'm worried, it's my own fault."
She had a lot of spunk. I'd never
thought she had, particularly. But
afterward I had to take off my hat
to her. Shed made a clutch at hap
piness, as you may say, and lost it
I'll skip Monday. It was a full day
We hg.d a girl in Hazel's place who
looked exactly like a mouse.
"If I yell 'cat' she'll run," I said
to the governor. "Bet you 50 cents
there's cheese in that lunch she's
brought."
Well, there was cheese, but that has
nothing to do with the story.
I sent around to the dealer's In the
morning for the camera, and got
word in reply that the dealer wished
to see me. He didn't send the camera
It made a happy start for the day.
There was no chance of a word
alone with Martin, and what could I
have said, anyhow? lie looked prettv
tired. I thought. I got in something
however, about hating to step into his
shoes, and that the mill wouldn't be
the same without him. That got him
rather for he held out his hand and
I shook it, and we both felt foolish
Things were doing In the mill be
lieve me. New men were lined up be
fore the employment office, and my
old friend the yard engine had gone
crazy and was barking around the
yard like a pup Just let out of the
house.
