"It was Pat!'' 1 said quietly, hurl ing niv hand grenade with the grim certainty that the time fuse wasn't right and that the explosion wouldn't take place just as sched uled. Virginia stirred a little on her throne. She crossed her pretty, slender feet, tucked them childish- ' l.v under the chair, then thrust them ! odt again and crossed them just as j they had been before. Her hands didn't move, but they whitened a j bit at tlie knuckles as if site were ; gripping the arms of the chair with j stern force. "Pat!" she said, and laughed ; quite mirthlessly. "Pat."

Virginia stared at me in amaze ment for a moment. Something in the tremendous feeling 1 had and 1 dared not express must have swayed her and moved her to recognize the truth of my feelings. For this i I'hoebe had been "protected" from Xeal and his boyish love. For this my little dead mother's diamond ; circlet had been torn from Phoebe's ringer, and the betrothal of the two young things had been ended, * * • . I couldn't say a word of it, but some 1 part, of what 1 felt seemed to com pel Virginia's respect. And as site | stared at me. wide-eyed, with tight -1 onlng jaw and quivering throat. I ! ventured on with the learlessness I that really belongs to a just cause: "Virginia. 1 don t like Dick West. | 1 hated the way he sneaked us through that narrow dark alleyway to a restaurant that had it bright ! enough front entrance. And I'm 'convinced that Kvvy s a cat ready to claw all the Harrisons. And Shel don— Sheldon's a tlirt!" Virginia flushed and bridled. "Oh, really. Anne, I'm not sure; that—all women aren't —cats," she s&id smoothly. "Well, let's not set out to prove i it." 1 laughed nervously. Then, en couraged by the flicker of a smile on Virginia's lips 1 rushed on: "Sheldon is a flirt. Jeanie. He was tremendously taken with you at sight, that 1 know. So he just flung Evvy our like that —pouff! for you. And when you did not en courage him—as, of course, you wouldn't, since he's not clever j enough to interest you—he talked a bit 01 nonsense to me, and now he's j using Evvy to further his flirtation with Phoebe. Am 1 right?" j "You put it rather cleverly," smiled Virginia, recognizing my ef- | forts to be charmingly tactful, but 1 not resenting them lor ali that. j "Of course, you wouldn't bother 1 wit it him, but he might turn the | head of a baby like Phoebe, 1 went | firmly on my appointed way. Then Virginia surprised me. "You don't think Pat has ever seen Shelly out with me—and is—- doing this on that account?" site' said disjointedly, but not at all in- ' coherently. "Would he?" 1 asked boldly, j Virginia sat thinking lor a mo ment —her lace was grave and white. 1 wondered if she could doff j the Harrison pride, it' she could warm her own coldness to the ar dent llante of a big. fearless love, what then would he her answer. 1 wondered if she were capable of a big. fearless love. 1 wondered if Pat had asked it of she had i been too wrapped in her icy mantle i f dignity to give it. Or had she given lavishly and hud Pat flung it uack at her unwanted, or trampled it in the dust at the shrine of his own egotism? I wondered, but L wasn't sure that 1 had the right even to want to known. "Would a big man like Pat Dal ton stoop to revenge himself on a 1 little one like Sheldon?" I asked. "You think Pat is big?" "Big and strong like a real man. with big. strong faults: and weak and helpless like tiie boy he hus never quite outgrown—he's Ireland itself." i replied. "Yes," said Virginia. staring ahead and sitting so still that I was utraiu to breathe lest 1 break the spell. Then she turned and caught my ' eves fixed on her. And her pride ' took tlanie. 1 could see her strug gling do retrieve her cold dignity, and the hash that came into her eves when she had found her way, warned me that the ice around Vir l'ile* C ured in d to It Ifnya Druggists refund money if PAZO > iNT.MKNT fails to cure Itching.

WILSON >\ OODHOW The family may be the mainstay i of the nation, but it is certainly the i cause of a large part of the trouble | in this world. And the reason for it lies not in ! the institution itself, but in the ( abuse of it. in the unwarranted and often disgraceful behavior of the ■ ; family's component members, j "Birds in their little nests agree," ' as Dr. Isaac Watts edifying!}' pointed j out. But do families profit by tn(s j happy example? Far from it. More | often they use the home circle us a ! place to vent their grouches, and to : indulge in satiric criticism and fault- j finding of a character which they j would not dare employ elsewhere. | That blood is thicker than water must surely be true, when one thinks j of all that the members of families I put up with from one another, and | still continue to live together. Usually, too. it is one particular j member of the family who causes , most of the inharraony," and through his selfishness and lack of consider ation makes life miserable for all the rest. A situation of the kind has been f put up to me by a young girl, and I she asks me to try and tell iter how I to meet it. [ "I have two brothers." she writes, j "of the ages of seventeen and nine ! teen whom I will call A and B. Five years ago they had a quarrel over it mere trifle, and ever since have not been speaking to each other. As you can imagine, this has caused a lot of trouble in our home. "B is very good and tries in every way not to annoy A. He would glad ly drop the quarrel and start to speaking again, but he knows it is useless, for as soon as he tries it A flies into a rage. If ho can possibly help it he will not stay in the same room with B at any time. "My mother has spoken to A many times, telling him how foolish it is for a boy of his age to act that way j toward a brother. But her appeals • seem to have no effect, although he ! loves my mother dearly and knows j that she is, always worrying and ; crying over his behavior. "He is always saying that he will! leave home if we attempt to inter- > fere with hirn, and one morning af- ■ ter a quarrel he did leave, but he ! came back again that same evening. ! Even the mention of B's name is i enough to throw him into a violent ! passion at any time. "W hat would you advise us to do? "AN ANXIOUS SISTER." The first thing 1 would do,"Anxious Sister," is to quit being anxious. This hostility between brothers of that age is not an uncommon phase of boyhotyj, although a little longer drawn out in this instance than is : usually the case. It is merely a manifestation of that I "show-oft" quality which is a char- ! acteristic of the boy nature, and with your, brother A has no doubt been Daily Dot Puzzle 2o *H * 2 . 5 28 , •; s. s i • t ' •?! . ,• ' 5 ? 7 3o 7 . * * * V •*, 1 ,b ,*5 s .10 \V I 46 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ '• V " \ 4? 4 49 ' i 5| t° V*4 58 '.

So long as he sees that ho can upset the household by his ugly con duct. and have you all crying and worried over It. he will persist in his way; for all thi.s_ tickles his vanity and adds to his sense of importance. All boys love to pose for effect, i Thc.v are continually dramatizing ! themselves in one role or another, | and so long as they can gain notice | by doing it they will keep on. I remember on one occasion a | youngster who declined anything to j eat for over a week. As he was I possessed of a decidedly healthy ap : petite, this refusal of food excited I a good deal of anxiety on the part : j of his parents, and every effort was i | made to tempt him with delicacies i I and things of which he was especial i !y fond, but in vain. Thr more he was urged tbe less I ! inclination he showed for anything j |to eat. There is no knowing what ! | would have happened, if it had not I ) been discovered that he was secret- j i ly subsisting on a cache of dry bread I and apples which he had stored tip. ' in other words he was deliberately j , punishing himself in order to be- j j come an object of sympathy. With- ' out telling hint of the discovery no | further attention was paid Lb his j vagaries at the table, and as a con- j sequence his appetite soon returned. ' A similar course of treatment will ; be found efficacious in almost every case. Indifference is the one thing which no holder of a pose can stand. Of course, with your brother, his ! ridiculous pose has become more or j less of a habit, and yet I believe it j may still be successfully eombatted. j Ignore every manifestation of it. j Ignore his rages. Ignore his threats , of leaving home. He has already ! proved that they are sheer bravadoj and that he lias no real intention ' of the sort. Let B address him nat- j urally and easily whenever the occa- > I sion arises, and then if he refuses ' to answer or flies into a passion I | merely smile and give a shrug of the shoulders. Don't quarrel with him. i Don't argue with him. Don't appeal ! ' to him. Don't let lilm see that you I i are worried or anxious. On the oth- j ' er hand try to make him feel that ' no one cares particularly whether j he speaks to Bor not. And his stein I vow of silence will soon be broken. ! I Salvation Army Opens Social Center in Old Barroom in Chicago II y Associated Press. Cliicngo, April 9.—Scores of khaki-clad men turned in yesterday at the sign of an old time saloon only to find themselves in tlie first substitute saloon opened in Chica go by the Salvation Army. The swinging doors, the long mirror arid the back bar were in evidence. Hut the "free lunch" counter had chang ed to a coffee and doughnut stand, while bizarre pictures had yielded to the camoufleur's brush; some nymphs were given garb; beer steins were turned to flower pots. Beside the Salvation lassies, sev eral other young women were pres ent. Some met their sweethearts there—one couple started from the place on their honeymoon. The social centers—intended to' take the place of saioons if prohibi tion becomes a realty—are tbe out growth of the overseas "hut." Others are to be opened throughout thei country.
