Grauel Some Notes on Aiternoon Teas Receptions, luncheons anil dinners | are pleasant way of paying social j debts in a wholesale manner, but for pleasurable visiting nothing equals the afternoon tea. This occasion may be formal or other- 1 wise, with cosy things passed along with the freshly brewed tea. I'lain bread and butter sandwiches, small cakes and rookies or fruit punch and home-made ' take or iced ten and sweet sandwiches make a friendly excuse for calling a simple gathering a "tea." If a large number of specially in vited guests are to be served yon will need flowers, color schemes and an elaborate service. Usually there are special friends who delight to "pour" and these may be given charge of the j important part of the affair. Little ' tables are placed for them if the sen ice is a la buffet, and the tea service is j arranged upon it. Other friends may assist in the serving or you may have j maid service. Sometimes lnrge tables are used with ( tea service at one end and chocolate at ! the other and the other refreshments j arranged daintily between. Or the guests fill the dining room and are served standing, again small tables are brought 1o various groups. These problems decide themselves when \ Mixed Nut Coal Now $6.55 Sept.

And now will you be good i enough to have Hawkes order the man i to row me across the"— "1 am very sorry, Mrs. Titus," said I I firmly, "but I fear I must declare my- I self. 1 cannot permit you to go into the town today." j She was thunderstruck. "Are you in j earnest?" she cried after searching inv face rather intently for a moment. "Unhappily, yes. Will you let me ex plain"— "The idea!" she exclaimed as she 1 drew herself to her full height and withered me with a look of surpassing scorn. "Am I to regard myself as a | prisoner, Mr. Smart?" J "Ob, 1 beg of you, Mrs. Titus"— I began miserably. > "Please answer my question." Her tone cut me like the lash of a | whip. My choler rose. "I do not choose to regard myself as i a jailer. My only object in opposing this"— "I have never known anything so ab-! surd." Two bright red spots appeared |in her cheeks. "Your attitude is most j extraordinary. However, I shall go to I the city this morning, Mr. Smart. Pray ; i give me the credit of having sense i enough to— Ah. Colingraft!" The two sons approached from the breakfast room, where they had been enjoying a 10 o'clock chop. Colingraft. I noting his mother's attire, accelerated I his speed and was soon beside us. I "Going out, mother?" he inquired, I flicking the ash from his cigarette. "If Mr. Smart will be good enough J to withdraw bis opposition," she said | icily. !Ie gave me a sharp look. "What's j UP?" j "Mrs. Titus doesn't seem to realize I j the risk she runs in"— I "Risk? I)o you suppose, Mr. Smart,! | I would jeopardize my daughter's"— j ! "What's up?" repeated Colingraft in j sistently. I "Mr. Smart calmly informs me that I j am not to go into the city." "1 don't see that Mr. Smart has any thing to say about it." said her son | coldly. "If he"— He paused, glaring. ! I looked him squarely in the eye. If j i he had possessed the acumen of a pol- I lywog he would have seen that my I Dutch was up. j "One moment, Mr. Titus," I said,! ; setting ray jaw. -[ have this to say j ! about it. You are guests in my house, j We are jointly interested in the effort j jto protect tiie Countess Tarnowsy. 11 consider it to be the height of itnpru-1 ! dence for any member of your family ] J to venture into the city now or at any time during her stay in this castle. I i happen to know that Tarnowsy is hav ; ing me watched for some purpose or j | other. I don't think he suspects that ' j the countess is here, but I greatly fear j that he believes I am interested in her i cause. He suspects me. You have j heard of our recent encounter. He j IsnojA's my position pretty well by this j time. Mrs. Titus says that the man i Dillingham assures her there is no j danger. Well. 1 can only say that Dil- ' iingham is a fool, and I don't purpose [ having ray own safety threatened by"—' "Your safety?" exclaimed he. "I like that! What hare you got to be afraid of?" "Yon seem to forget that I am bar tering a fugitive from justice." I said i flatly. Mrs. Titus gasped. "How dare you"—: "The Countess Tarnowsy is wanted by the authorities for kidnaping, and I think you know the facts quite as well as I do." I went on harshly. "God knows I ani doing rh.v best to protect her. lam risking more than you seem to appreciate. If she is found here my position isn't likely to be an en viable one. 1 am not thinking solely of myself, believe me. but after all I j contend that I have a right to assert I myself in a crisis that may affect nie J vitally. I trust you will see ray posi- | tion and act accordingly—with consid- ; eration if nothing else." Mrs. Titus did not take her eyes off mine while I was speaking. There was an expression of utter amazement; ; in them. No one had ever opposed her j before in just this way, I gathered, j j She didn't know what to make of it. j J "I fear you exaggerate the extent of 1 your peril. Mr. Smart." she said dryly. > j "Of course 1 have no desire to put you I in jeopardy, but it seems to me"— . "Leaving me out of the case alto- 1 gether, don't you think it is a bit un- i j fair to the countess?" I asked in some i i heat. "She doesn't want to go to jail." I "Jail?' she cried angrily. "That's no way to speak about"— be gan Colingraft furiously. I broke in rashly. "If you please. ! Mr. Titus, be good enough to keep' your trmiper. I have no desire to ap i pear harsh and arbitrary, but I can see tbnt it is necessary to speak plain ly. 7t>ere isn't anything in the world I wis? not do to help you and the wuuttes in this unfortunate business, Mrs Titus. I hoj>e you believe me I I say as much. I am her friend. 1 want to be yours if you will let me. But I reserve the right to say what shall be and what shall not be done as | long as you are under my roof. Just I | a moment. Mr. Titus! I tliink we nre j quite ncree<l that your sister is to rle purt from here on the 14th of the month, i am to be her escort, so to speak, for a considerable distance in company with Mr. Hangs. Well, it must be clearly understood that not one of you is to show his or her face outside these walls until after that journey is over. That's plain speak ing, isn't it?" "I shall go where I plfnse. and I'll go to the town today"— roared Colin graft, getting no further for the rea ; son that his mother, seeing that I was desperately in earnest, gave vent to a little cry of alarm and clutched her big son by the shoulder. She begged him ! to listen to reason. ! "Reason!" he gasped. "If you—or any of you— put a foot outside these walls," I declared, "you will not be allowed to re-enter. That's flat!'' I "By cricky!" fell in fervent admira tion from the lips of Jasper junior. I glanced at his beaming, astonished face. He positively was grinning. "Good for you! You're a wonder, Mr. Smart! By cricky! And you're dead right! We're darn fools!" "Jasper!" gasped Mrs. Titus, j "Good for you, .Jasper!" I cried warmly and took the hand he prof | fered. "Colingraft, please take me to my j room," murmured the mother. "I—l feel faint. Send for Aline. Ask Mr. Bangs to come to me at once." 1 bowed stiffly. "I am sorry, Mrs. | Titus, to have been so harsh, so as- I sertive"— She held up both hands. "I never j was so spoken to in all my life, Mr. j Smart. I shall not forget It to my dy | ing day." j She walked away from me, her pret ty head held high and her chin sus piciously nqulver. Colingraft hastened after her. but not without giving me a i stare in which rage and wonder strug 1 I gled for the mastery, j I ran my hand over my moist brow J "Gee!" said Jasper junior. "You'a _ j corked her all right, all right." He followed me into the study, and I couldn't get rid of him for hours. CHAPTER XXI. I Have a Tilt With Colingraft. LVTER in the forenoon the countess, with a queer little smile on her f lips, told me that her mother considered me the most won derful. the most forceful character she j had ever encountered. I brightened I up at that. ! But Colingraft was not yet through with me. He sought me out just be ! fore luncheon. I was in the courtyard, listening patiently to Jasper junior's theories and suggestions concerning the restoration of the entire facade of i the castle and what he'd do if he were jin my place. Strange to say, 1 was J considerably entertnined; he was not lat all offensive. On the contrary, he J offered his ideas in a pleasantly in | gennous way. always supplementing i them with some such salve as "Don't I you think so, Mr. Smart?" or "I'm sure j you have thought of it yourself," or ; "Isn't that your idea too?" or "You've , done wonders with the joint, old man." I Colingraft came directly up to where we were standing. "See here, Mr. Smart," he began aus terely, "I've got something to say to you, and I'm not the sort to put it oft. I appreciate what you've done for Aline aud all that sort of thing, but your manner today has been intoler able, and we've got to come to an un derstanding." I eyed him closely. "I suppose you're about to suggest that one or tbe other ; of us must evtrcuate—get out, so to I speak," I said. "Don't talk rubbish. You've got my mother bawling her eyes out upstairs and wishing she were dead. You've got to come off this high horse of yours. You've got to apologize to her, and quick at that. Understand!" "Nothing will give me greater joy than to offer her my most abject apol ogy. Mr. Titus, unless it would be her unqualified forgiveness." "You'll have to withdraw everything you said." "I'll withdraw everything except my ultimatum in respect to her putting a foot outside these walls. That still stands." "I beg to differ with you." "You may beg till you're black In the face." said I coolly. He swallowed hard. His face twitch ed, and his hands were clinched. "You are pretty much of a mucker, Mr. Smart," he said between hts teeth. "I'm sorry my sister has fallen Into your hands. The worst of it is she seems satisfied with everything you do. Good I»rd. what she can see in you is beyond comprehension! Protec tion! Why, you couldn't protect her from the assault of a chicken!" "Are you trying to insult me. Mr. Titus?" "You couldn't resent it If I were. There nevet was an author with enough moral backbone t<4"— "Wait! You nre hef brother. I don't want to have trouble with you. But If you keep on in this strain, Mr. Titus. I shall be compelled to thrash you soundly." H« fairly gasped.. "Th—thrash, met" he choked out. Then he advanced. Much to his surprise—and. strangely enough, not to my own—l failed to re treat. Instead I extended my left list with considerable abruptness and pre cision, and he landed on his back. I experienced a sensation of unholy Joy. Up to that moment I hed won dered whether 1 could do It with my ! left hand. I I looked at Jasper Junior. He was I staring at me In utter bewilderment. "Good Lord, you—you've knocked him down!" "I didn't think I could do It." said I hazily. He sprang to his brother's side ai#l j assisted him to a sitting posture. "Right to the Jaw," shouted Jasiier, with a strange enthusiasm. "I-cft." I corrected him. Colingraft gazed about him in a stu pid. vacant fashion for a moment, and tben allowed bis glazed eyes to rest upon me. He sat rather limply, I thought. "Are you hurt Colly?" cried Jasper Junior. A sickly grin, more of surprise than shame, stole over Collngraft'a face, ne put his band to his Jaw, then to the back of his head. "By Jove!" he murmured. "I—l dhln't think be had It in him. Let me get up!" Jasper junior was discreet "Better let well enough alone, old" — "I intend to," said Colingraft aa he struggled to bis feet. For a moment he faced me uncer tainly. "I'm sorry, Mr. Titus." said 1 calmly. "You—you are a woiWfc-r!" fell from his lips. "I'm not a coward, Mr. Smart. I've boxed a good deal in my time, but, by Jove, I never had a jolt like that!"
