" When a Girl "
tl; AXX LISLE
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
CHAPTER CXCIX
At a little past ten on the day
after my Hying trip to visit Bett>,
I called Virginia and asked her to
go with me to make the final selec
tions of rugs and furniture and hang
ings for our new apartment.
I told myself that I waited until
so late because I wanted to leave
the line clear for Neal. But I knew
perfectly well there was another
reason. I didn't want to get into
an argument with Jim about Vir
ginia, and Tom Mason would think
of my being back in town again.
The fact remained I was back, and
so 1 might as well get ahead on the
apartment. 1 counted on V irginias
good breeding to accept whatever
explanation I chose to offer. And
as for Tom —there wouldn't be any
explaining to him, since what he
thought didn't matter.
"You came back sooner than you
expected, didn't you?" was Virginias
entire comment.
"Yes, I wasn't needed. And I do
so want to get into the new apart
ment," I replied.
Not even to Virginia did I want
to confess that the coming of An
thony Norreys had driven me away.
It would make Jim seem petty, and.
would further belittle Tony.
"Shall I call for you at eleven?"
asked Virginia amiably.
"Please, if you can make it so
soon." 1 replied.
And then I fell to dressing in a
great hurry, so that 1 need not keep
her waiting. She would know Jim s
taste even in bath towels, and her
own would prove unfailing ail the
wr,v from roasting pans to player
pianos. So I felt that this day must
he a regular shower of linens and
china, and silver and graniteware
as well.
"We ought to get into the apart
ment by the middle of next week, "I
told Virginia as we swung down the j
avenue in a taxi almost on the dot ;
of eleven.
"Why are you in such a hurry- j
scurry. Anne?" asked Virginia tol- i
erantly. i
"Well—there's no use in paying
rent for two places at once" —
"l thought that was it," inter
rupted Virginia smilingly. "Now
why should you care so since Jim
doesn't?"
"It"s so wasteful. We're really not
getting anything for our money."
"You may not be getting any
thing," said Virginia thoughtfully.
"But you're giving an impression of I
prosperity of success. And in Jim's
game that helps tremendously."
"To be extravagant? To spend
money lavishly without any return?"
1 objected.
' "Anne, there is a return. I wish

, For real, downright, harassing,

MONDAY EVENING,
• I could make you see it. The in--
i vestors Jim wants to reach are men
| who have fortunes. When they see
i Jim spending money the way they
j do. they think it's because he has
I money because he knows how to
I make it. So they think he'll make
j it for them, also."
j "That doesn't sound very solid— I
| very conservative. Jeanie. It's just
gambling, isn't it?"
"Perhaps." retorted Virginia. "But
it's all right if it works. Men make
J fortunes gambling in stocks, and
nowadays unless you have a fortune i
! you're just nobody. You watch that \
! little Cosby woman climb to a place
jin the best society. She has money;
| she'll entertain the best people, and
i presto! there you ate."
i "You mean presto—there she is!"
I T replied. "You know I haven't a
j social ambition in my make-up,
i Jeanie. I like a home —and home
life. Kiddies and the country for;
| them to grow up in."
Virginia turned and studied me [
critically for a moment. j
I "Perhaps you're right," she said j
at last. "Perhaps there's more hap- j i
piness that way. But Jim doesn't •
i see it. I really don't either. Per- i
haps I'd have been happier if I'd • 1
J been more like you. But Jim's like i i
me. He isn't simple in his tastes. '
'He likes beauty and luxury. He
I and the Cosbys are after the same j
things. They'll travel together for j
a while."
"Are you trying to warn me |
against Valerie Cosby. Jeanie?" I ]
asked. "You've dragged mentioned
her twice in the last few minutes, i
Did you notice anything last might?" j
After I had said the words I could |
have bitten my tongue out. Here j
I was revealing to Jim's sister that j
I was jealous of him—that I didn't
trust him. That belittled Jim it
shamed me. For a second, Virginia
stiffened visibly. Her Harrison pride
was up in arms. Then what I liked
even less happened. A look of pity
blotted all the coldness from her
face. And when she spoke her
kindness together with the way she
picked her words, seemed to be fore
casting something I didn't even want
to think about.
"Valerie Cosby is a beautiful
woman—young and spoiled. She
wants admiration, and her husband
is delighted when she gets it. So, of
course, Jim has to be attentive. But
you're clever, Anne, and young and
pretty. If you'll make yourself at
tractive, dress well and—play the
game Jim's way—and stop turn
ing over the pennies there's no doubt
you can hold Jim. Oh, Anne, don t |
you see? Women throw away love
because they think they don't want it
enough to try to keep it. Of course,
they're too proud to try."
"Thank you. Virginia," I said
gravely. "I see. I'll stop turning
over the pennies. ... I see."
"Money buys everything, Anne —
don't forget that," cried Virginia,
suddenly stiffening to her usual
powder tablets, which he claimed to !
be Aspirin.

LONDON HAS WORD NC-3
CREW IS RESCUED
[Continued from First Page.]
Jackson at Ponta Dal
gada:
"The NC-3 located sev
en miles north of Ponta
Dalgada under her own
power."
London, May 19, 10.26 A.
M.—American naval au
thorities here have received
an unofficial report that
the crew of the XC-3 have
been rescued safely by the
American warship Colum
bia.
Washington, May 19. Al
though it was said London
might get the news first, the
,Navy Department early to-day
had not been informed as to the
unofficially reported rescue of
the crew of the seaplane NC-3
as told in a news dispatch from
London this morning.
It was stated, however, that in
terrupted cable service between the
Azores and the United States might
account for a report of the rescue
reaching American naval officers in
London before it was received here.
Pluukett Orders Search
Instructions to use the seaplane
NT -4 at Horta to search for the
missing seaplane NC-3 and her crew
have been sent Rear Admiral Jack
son at Ponta Delgada by Rear Ad
miral Plunkett, commanding the
destroyer force, according to a mes
sage received to-day at the Navy
Department. All destroyers west of
Ponta Delgada have been placed at
Admiral Jackson's disposal to search
for the missing plane.
The mesasge from Admiral Jack
son, sent from Ponta Delgada at 4:40
A. M.. Washington time, said:
"Following instructions re-
reived from Rochester, (Admir
al Plunkctt's flagship at I/ishon);
•use all available destroyers
west of Ponta Delgada and the
NC-4 if practicable, to make an
organized search for NC-3.'"
Porta. Azores, May 19, 10:30 A. M.
—Rear Admiral Plunkett, on the
cruiser Rochester at Lisbon sent
word here to-day suggesting that the
seaplane NC-4 join in the search this
morning for the missing NC-3. This
suggestion is believed here, however,
to be impracticable, because the
searching sea plane would be forced
back by heavy head winds.
New York, May 19.—Naval officials
here refused to-day to give up hope
that the NC-3 "flagship" of the
trans-Atlantic flight squadron, last
heard from early Saturday morning
in mid-ocean, would be located and
the crew rescued.
While lg.ck of a, surface wireless
set, which was abandoned at Tre
passey to lighten the seaplane, would
prevent the craft from signaling its
position, the navy men were con
fident the buoyancy of the empty
gas tanks would keep the plane
affoat, even in heavy seas, until the
searching warships came to the res
cue.
Steamer ionia Picks
Up Bellinger and Crew;
NC-1 Nearly Total Wreck
Horta, May 19. The crew of the
XC-1 was picked up by the steamer
lonia Saturday afternoon after they
had been tossed about in the water
for five hours in their damaged
plane. All the members were fa
tigued and suffering from seasick
ness when picked up. The plane is
almost a total wreck.
Lieutenant Commander P. N. L.
Bellinger, the commander of the
NC-1, gave out the following state
ment to-day:
"The NC-1 was the last plane to
take the air at Trepassey, doing so at
10.10 p. m. Friday (Greenwich
time). We proceeded on the course,
being guided by the smoke and
searchlights from the destroyers and
the star shells they sent up. After
passing most of the station ships we
did not meet with any trouble until
we got into fog at 11.10 a. m. Satur
day, when we were near station 18.
After being in the fog for some time
we alighted on the water at 1.10
p. m. Saturday."

The NC-4 was tuning up this aft

"200,000,000 BABY" DIES
AFTER BEING HIT BY AUTO
Death of Vinson Walsh McLean Recalls Fatality Is Always j
Supposed to He Connected With Famous Diamond
Washington.. May 10. Vinson i
Walsh McLean, famous as the two- I
hundred-million-dollar baby," died I
here last night from injuries suffered
early in the day when struck by an i
automobile near the McLean country j
estate. Friendship, in the suburbs of
the capital.
The boy was nine years old. He
was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward
Beale McLean, the former a million
aire publisher and sportsman, son of i
the late John It. McLean. The boy's |
mother was Miss Evelyn Walsh, j
daughter of Thomas F. Walsh, the J
Colorado gold mine owner.
Vinson McLean was guarded closely
all his life. He left his personal at
tendant this morning and started to
cross the roadway from the mansion
when struck by an automobile occu
pied by three women.
Parents Chartered Special Train
Mr. and Mrs. McLean were at
Louisville, where Mr. McLean has a
racing stable at Churchill Downs.
They chartered a special train and
hurried to Washington.
The tragic death of the boy recalled
the story of the purchase of the
Hope diamond by Mr. McLean in 1911.
According to John S. Wise, of New
York, an agreement was drawn up
between Mr. McLean and Pierre Car
tier, the Paris jeweler, by which Mr. I
McLean paid SIBO,OOO for the diamond
with an agreement that should any
fatality occur to the McLean family
within six months the Hope diamond
would be turned back to Cartier for
other jewels of equal value.
It was said that because of the
diamond's ill omen Mr. McLean feared
that something might happen to his
sen.

Michelin trophy, for that year.
In 1913, flying a Sopwith equipped!
with a Gnome motor, he established j
the then British altitude record of;
12,900 feet and on the same day car-j
ried aloft two passengers to a height j
of 10.600 feet.
Later he attained what was claim- j
ed to be the world's altitude record j
—28,500 feet—which of course, was ■
subsequently excelled. During the]
war Hawker was engaged as an ex-j
perimental flyer, assisting in the de-}
vclopment of Sopwith machines. •
llawkcr Says Machine Can Float ,
Asked yesterday before he sailed
what were the chances of floating |
if he were to drop in midocean, j
Hawker said:
"If we land a few miles from
home we can float for a week, for
the petrol tanks will be empty and
they are specially designed, after
much study, to be strong enough to
float the machine. Otherwise she
will float but a little while. We
could pump the fuel out of her.
"I regard the flight as a perfectly ]
straightaway job, and I expect to get !
there. I anticipate no trouble. We ''
ought to land at Brooklands twen- !
ty or twenty-one hours after we ;
start. We reckon it at just under '
2,300 miles, and we have a cruising i
speed of 100 miles an hour until we i
slip the under carriage. Then we |
will have about 106.
"I do not look for any trouble be- <
cause of physical strain. I felt ab- j
solutely none after more than ,
nine hours' flight and am confident ]
I will feel none from twenty or
more."

baby" soon after his birth. All that
time King Leopold, of Belgium,
who had been a partner of
Thomas F. Walsh in the Camp Bird
gold mine in Colorado, sent the boy
a gold cradle, which, the story has
it. was valued at $23,0tin,000.
John D. Rockefeller had at about I
that time founded the Rockefeller
Foundation and John D. Rockefeller
Jr.. was heir to $60,000,000, but the
McLean baby was in line for the

Walsh and John R. McLean, then |
owner of the Washington Post, Cin- |

ested in gas and traction interests. I
Accident Increased Fortune
By a coincidence it was an auto- j
mobile accident that left Young Mc- !
Lean at his birth sole heir to these
two great fortunes. In 1905 Vinson
Walsh, brother of Mrs. McLean, was j
killed in an accident at Newport, j
Mrs. McLean who was then Miss Eve- :
l.vn Walsh, also was in the car and !
received injuries which made her an j
invalid for a year.
The boy had a private car, elabo
rately furnished, which carried him |
to Palm Beach, to California or !
wherever he wished to go. He had I
a half dozen automobiles of his own. J
He had doctors and nurses and pri- ;
vate detectives to watch over him.
Numerous reports were of plans to :
kidnap him but he was so closely I
guarded that no attempt was ever !
made.
Since that time two other children i
have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Mc- j
Le'an, both boys, one of whom is four j
and the other a year old. They are j
left heirs to the estate.
Advice to the Lovelorn
Han Nothing I'ut By
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am eighteen, and have been going !
about with a young man of the very !
finest qualities, who is five years]
older than I am. I love him very
dearly, and am sure my love is re- j
ciprocated, but my folks are against ]
my going with him because he has j
no money saved and that it never j
turns out well to marry a man with- ]
out money. Otherwise, they think
well of him.
Now this young fellow has recently
landed a very good position and earns i
a nice salary and tries to save every I
cent he possibly can to show my folks i
that he will make a good start, but '
they say it Is too late now.
ANXIOUSLY WAITING.
At eighteen, it would seem that
there is plenty of time to begin and :
save quite a substantial nest egg i
before you reach the age of twenty- ]
three or twenty-four, which is cer- i
tainly young enough for marriage. I
In the meantime you might take up
some business or occupation and do
a little saving on your own account.
Nothing is so valuable for a girl
when she comes to manage a house
hold as an understanding of the value
of money, acquired through the pain
ful processes of earning it.
He Loves His Cousin
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have been going with a young
lady about eight months and have
learned to love her and I think she
cares a great deal for me. But there
is one thing I wish to ask you. This
girl is my second cousin. Docs that
make any difference, for we expect
some day to become engaged?
A READER.
It is my impression that medical
authorities do not regard the rela
tionship of second cousins as close
enough to constitute an objection to
marriage. But it would be more
sensible, considering the importance
of the question, if you discussed it
with your family doctor, or if you
were to get some standard work on
eugenics at the public library and
read for yourself what experts have
to say on the subject, and what risk,
if any is entailed.
