.if ere is a fascinating latter day
romance, written in the vein and
style that have won fame for
Scwcll Ford. "Cherub" Dcvinc it,
an inspiration in his refreshing
outlook on life and people, and
after a meteoric Wall street ca
reer and a season of recreation
among the effervescent ladies of
the stage he meets the charm
ing Countess Vecchi. This sweet
young American girl, victim of
the execrable" international mar
riage" system, resolves that it is
her duty to reform the Cherub,
and the outcome provides a nar
rative seldom equaled in its fan
ciful humor, illuminating char
acter delineation and tender sen
timent. CHAPTER 1.
THOSE who doubt that fate now
and thou Indulges in Irony
should have observed the Man

came into the possession of "Cherub"
Devlne.
liulkins. tlie mil estate agent who
made the sale, attributes the whole
credit of the transaction to his own
shrewdness. Hut, then, liulkins is one
of those persons who would cheerfully
call upon the entire universe to prove
that lie (Hulklns) was favored abovo
all other men in that respect. Hues j
the sun shine? Hulkius knew it would I
and for his profit. There conies a
Ktorin. liulkins appropriates it, wrings
a percentage therefrom and winks con
lldeiitly at the solar system whose op
erations are conducted for his especial
and particular benelit.
"I can sell anything, anywhere."
This was Itulkius' philosophy, his re
ligion, his declaration of faith in him
self. And of course liulkins knew the hab- j
its and ways of Cherub Dcvinc. Ev-
ery one knew them. Any one the
man in tin? street, the clerk behind
the counter, the very newsboy at the
curb could tell you nil about Cherub,
give you his entire history, from the
time lie started his career us' otllce
boy for a Chicago stockbroker until he
evolved into the many mlllioned specu
lator whose audacious methods were
at that moment stirring things up hi
Wall street. Each and every one could
have told you exactly the kind of man
he was and missed the mark widely,
for such men are not so easily esti
mated. 1'erhaps it was this, visible In his
wide set blue eyes, with the Hashes of
light behind; perhaps it was only the
pink chubbiness of ills cleanly shaven
face, which earned him the nnme of
Cherub, a designation applied impar
tially by pert messenger boys, Irrev
erent brokers and staid heads of great
corporations. He had been christened
otherwise, of course, and possibly
Cherub was inappropriate when you
consider all that he was or seemed to
be, but the designation was universal'
ly acceptiMl, as you know.
Just where he might be expected to
be found liulkins had run across hlni,
Heated comfortably In ft leather cov
ered, wide armed oillce chair at an
open window which looked out across
Rroad street toward the more or less
ornate front of the Xew York Stock
Kxcbauge.
The time was a little past noon ot
an August Saturday. Therefore the
Ktream of men was setting outward
between the great pillars. The curb
was lined with hansoms and autos,
and Into these climbed brokers vari
ously attired, variously burdened
Here came ono In blue serge wearing
n yachting cap, there two who swnng
golf bags in their hands. Others were
followed by boys carrying kit bags.
"Hello, Cherub! They got after you
today, eh? I'lannlng how to get even,
are you?"
.Mr Devlne showed no resentment.
"Maybe I was," said he.
Hulklns snorted out a mirthless
laugh.
"(lood! Sic 'em, my boy! That's
what I'd do. When they think they've
got me beat worst I bob up and go at
em hardest. Hut, say, you ought to
take a rest ouce In awhile. Does a
man good. You ought"- Ho grinned
liroadly. "Oh, I say, Cherub," drop
ping his tone. "I've got Just the thing
.you ought to have a country place."
"Yes?" Mr. Devlne acknowledged
the joke "by tlleklng half an Inch of
cigar ash on the window ledge.
"You bet!" Hulklns was smoothing
Cherub's coat sleeve. "It's Hewing
ton Acres- up on the sound gilt edged
suburban property, and going dirt
cheap on foreclosure. You know
sibout tilts Hewlngtons; swell family,
hut gone all to smash llnanclally.
Now, there's twenty acres of park
along the water, nice little forty room
cottage"
"Only forty?"
"With stables, lodge house, garden
er shack and the like. It's fully fur
nished and goes as It stands, even to
the servants if you want them. Just

tho place for a family man like you."
And Hulklns snorted n fresh apprecia
tion of his own humor, winking
roguishly at an astonished broker's
clerk who happened to be passing.
Mr. Devlne seemed to have missed
the Joke.
"How much?" he asked, his gaze
still tlxed on the stone steps opposite.
"Receivers would take !(iO,000, but
it's worth double. That's as sure as
I'm standing here. I tell you, Cherub,
that property"
"I'll take It." said the Cherub.
"Eh? Hulklns' pendulous under Hp
was sagging away from his yellow
teeth.
"I said I'd take it at sixty. What
do you want to bind the bargain ten
thousand? - Fifteen? Well, call it llf
teen." And before that under lip of
Hulklns' had stiffened he was-holding
Cherub's cheek in ills hands.
Observed Hulklns afterward when
he hud mentally added his commission
to his hank account and recovered
from his surprise: "Now, some men
would have been six mouths turning
over n property like that, hut me, I
unload it on the llrst sucker 1 meet,
though what In thunder Devlne wants
of a place like Hewington Acres is
more '11 1 can see!"
Apparently Cherub had no immedi
ate use for it since he nllowed threo
weeks to elnpze without referring to
the transaction, except to toss the deed
over to a clerk and tell him to have It
recorded. He seemed to forget nil
about It until one Friday afternoon
when he found himself with a "clos
ing" Saturday, a Sunday and an en
suing Monday holiday on his hands.
"Hotter come with me for a run Into
tlie Herkshlres, Cherub, and help mo
try out my new machine," urged Win
ston, one of the "Chicago crowd."
whose hobby was buying another and
more expensive touring car every
month or so.
"Thanks, but I guess I'm about due
out at my place ou the sound."
"Wlia-a-at! You don't mean to say
you've set up a country establish
ment?" And Wlllston gave him an In
credulous look.
"Didn't have to bought it all stand
ing. Haven't seen It yet. It's out
well, say, blamed If I know Just where
it Is. Hoy, ring up Hulklns, real es
tate!" Having summoned Hulklns to the
other end of the wire, Mr. Devlne pro
ceeded to ask enlightenment.
"That you, Hulklns? Well, this Is
Devlne. Say, what's' the name of that
place you sold me? Kh? Howllngton
Acres? Oh, Hew-lng-ton! Good! And
where is it? Yes, where? Xo. How
"nEI.r.Ol I WONUEIt WHO THAT WAS?''
should 1 know? Ah, that's it. is it?
Guess 1 can remember. Hut how do
you get there? Sure, Thirty-fourth
street ferry. Thanks. So long."
And ten minutes later Mr. Devlne
hud started on his voyage of discovery
into the fashionable wilds of Long In
land, bent on Inspecting tlie ilrst piece
of reul estate which he had ever
owned, the first tangible fruits of his
uowly acquired millions.
Owing to the foresight of Hulklns,
who hud sent a warning telegram In
advance, Mr. Devlne was met at thu
station by one Tlmmlus, who singled
him out with unerring promptness, In
troducing himself as caretaker and
general superintendent of Hewington
Acres, and waved him obsequiously to
ward yellow wheeled park trap
drawn by a pair of glossy cobs.
"Whose team?" Mr. Devluo wus ask
lng. "Yours, sir."
"All right. Let 'er go."
No one will ever know Just how
much Cherub Devlne enjoyed that
ride or tho sensation he experienced
when they turned In through the big
V
sloiis gateposts and i 1 remark
ed (;heerfully, "Here we are, sir." Al
the last curve or tlie driveway the
trees seemed suddenly to open, and
there sprang Into view I he low roofed,
many windowed, much awnlnged "cot
tage," with Its porte-eoeheie. sorvr:.t
annex, glass roofed i-oiiscrMiioiies mid
deep verandas.
"Show you through the house llrst,
lr?" suggested Tlnimlns.
"Might ns well."
Mr. Devlne was lighting a black ci
gar. This accomplished, he followed
Tinimlns Into the darkened vlstn of
hall and through tho large rooms. As
Hulklns had assured him, the placo
was fully furnished. There were
chairs, tables, rugs, books, pictures,
oven freshly cut flowers In tho vases.
"Upstairs uow, sir?"
. "Oh, I guess tho upstairs Ml keep.
Let's have a look at the stable."
Inside of half an hour the Cherub
was smoking lonesomely on the front
veranda, trying to summon n sense of
ownership which it seemed to him Im
possible that ho could ever nchieve.
Usually a man much given to si
lence, even among his Intimates, Mr.
Devlne now felt that he wanted to
Jilk. The stillness was oppressive. So
this was what It was like to own a
country place, was It?
"Fine thing, the country," solilo
quized Mr. Devlne. "I could spend
just about u week here and then die
of It."
He walked Into the library. As he
did so he heard n inulUed exclamation
and caught a glimpse of a skirt whisk
ing through a door. An easy chair
pulled up before nn open bookcase
caught his eye.
"Hello! I wonder who that was?"
He found a push button on the jamb.
He put his thumb on it and waited.
"Did you ring, sir?" asked a se
pulchral voice behind him.
Mr. Devlne jumped and turned to
see a solemn faced butler.
"Who else would ring If 1 didn't?"
demanded the Cherub.
"Xo one, sir."
"Sure about that, are you?"
"Quite sure, sir."
"Well, I'm not. Some oiitjust skip
ped out of this room as 1 came in.
Who was It?"
"Likely one of the maids, sir."
"Do the maids have the run of tlie
bookcase, ell? She was sitting here."
"Might have been tlie 'ousekeeper,
sir Mrs. Timmlns, sir."
"She's a reader, is she? Well, tell
her not to be so skittish next time.
It gives me the fidgets."
The man hud retreated as silently
and abruptly as he had come.
"Wonder If they're all that kind."
commented tlie Cherub. "Guess I'll
have to hang sleighbells 011 'em If 1
want to dodge a case of nerves."
Dropping into the easy chair, he be
gan reading the titles on the backs of
the volumes before him. So all these
books were his, were they? Well, that
was odd. Some day lie might wnut to
do n little reading. He had always
meant to, but
Something white on the floor be
tween the chair and the wall caught
his eye. He stooped and picked up a
handkerchief. It was a dainty nffalr,
mostly lace, and there was an initial
In the corner, an embroidered V with
some sort of a little pointed crown
above It.
"H-m-m!" said the Cherub. "V can't
stand for Tlnimlns."
Having made this subtle deduction,
he pocketed the handkerchief and
started to look for the factotum who
was caretaker and superintendent and
whose wife was the housekeeper.
"Timmlns," said Mr. Devlne, "what
sized force are we carrying?"
"Heg pardon, sir, but" Timmius
caught himself abruptly. "Oh, you
mean how many In help? Only five
now, sir, outside of me and Mrs. Tim
mlns." "Five, eh and two are seven? Let's
see the payroll, will you?"
Timmlns produced an account book
In which were entered names, dates
and amounts. Mr. Devlne glanced
hastily through tlie list.
"None of 'em seem to have a V In
their names," suggested the Cherub.
"A Y, sir?" Timmlns' blank look
was wholly convincing.
"Maybe you never heard of any one
whose name began with a V, Tlni
mlns?" "Oh, yes, sir. There was the Vena
hies, sir, as used to visit here, and
Volkenberg, who was one of the gar
deners." "That all?"
"There might be others, sir, if 1
could lay my tongue to"
"Don't strain your memory, Tlin
mliis. It doesn't matter."
Yet when he hud returucd to the ve
randa to resume his contemplation of
tho vividly green lawn, over which
the tree shadows wero now lengthen
ing, he could not rid himself of the
notion that somewhere about this big
house, of which he was trying to con
vince himself that he was thu owner,
was a person who had not thus far
been accounted for. Moreover, the
pel son wns a woman. Mr. Devlne
moved uneasily lu his chair.
Mr. Devlne Indulged In a chuckle
at his own expense when ho found
himself seated alone in tho big din
ing room, a single pluto laid at the big
round table and the candlelight bare
ly suggesting the dim corners and the
cavernous fireplace, it was with a
tense of relief that he, saw the butler
emerge from the gloom.
"Let's see, what's your name?" he
asked of this persouugc.
"Upplngs, sir. Soup, sir?" Both re
ply and question were dismal, se
pulchral hi tone.
"Yes, I'll have some soup. Grand
mother dead, Is she?"
"Heg pardon, sir." Epplngs paused,
with his hand ou thu tureen cover.
"Grandmother dead?" repeated Mr.
Devine.
"She is, sir." 9
"Thought so. MH'o I' i' ). Hut
cheer up. You'll get .,i r r."
"Most hextranrdhiury until, tV new
master," reported Kp;i.igs hi the serv.
auts quarters. "Thinks I'm mourn
ing for my grandmother when, hies-

EEFUSES TO SUBMIT PROOFS.
That Is Peary's Answer to the House
Naval Subcommittee.
Washington, March s. Civil Engi
neer I'eary refuses to submit to the
house committee on naval affairs his
proofs that ho reached the north pole.
He says he Is all tied up witli maga
zine contracts and cannot take a
chance of being sued by publishers
l'tir permitting his data to become pub
lic property prior to Its publication lu
their magazines.
Representative Alexander of Xew
York, who has been urging the com
mittee to recommend the explorer's
retirement with the rank of senior
rear admiral of tlie line of the navy,
made the following statement for I'ea
ry to the subcommittee of the house
naval committee:
"Commander I'eary and his friends
say that contracts signed months ago
with his publishers render It Impossi
ble to make his records and sclcntllie
data public now. It would not only
subject I'eary to heavy damages, a
loss he cannot meet, having Just ex
tricated himself from a debt Incurred
In connection with his various expedi
tions, hut It would be breaking faith
with his publishers, which ho is un
willing to do under any circum
stances." Representatives .1. Hampton Moore
of Pennsylvania and Ulchmond Pear
son Hobson of Alabama, who are
members of the naval committee,
spoke In favor of Immediate action
looking to Peary's elevation and re
tirement in the line of tlie navy. They
insisted that Inasmuch as the National
Geographic society had determined of
ficially that Peary reached tlie pole it
was unnecessary for the naval com
mittee or congress to go further In
the matter by demanding tirst hand
review of the proofs.
Representative Macon of Arkansas
objected, and action was deferred.

THE KING OF THE
NATURAL WORLD.
International Bible Leeson for V.ar.
13, '10. (Matt. 8:23-34).
He who bears kingly credentials
must not only bavo power to conquer
the hearts and the bodies ot men. Ho
must be tho master of life's environ
ment as well. Christ must prove His
divinity by His power over the forces
of nature. And this He did In the
marvellous story of this lesson. The
stilling of a tempest on the Sea of
Galilee. .
Tempest on the 8ea.
Crossing that land-locked, mountain-guarded
body of water with His
disciples In an open boat, one of the
sudden storms for which that sea Is
famous swept down through the moun
tain gorges upon them, and the little
boat was almost covered xvlth the
waves. The disciples were old fisher- j
men, brought up on the shores of that
sea, getting their living for years out
of Its crystal depths, rocked on Its
bosom often by tempestuous winds,
not easily frightened at the howling
of a gale. Hut this time they struck
a tempest such as they had never en
countered and they were afraid the
boat would go to pieces in the squill.
They did their utmost to keep her
afloat, but when they became con
vinced that they could not weather
tho gale they suddenly remembeted
that they cnrrled the King, and they
cried out to Him for help.
Master of Neptune.
Worn out with the day's labors
Christ was fast asleep. Ills human
nature no more disturbed than a
child by the rocking of a cradle. Hut
at the llrst cry of alarm, the Masfer
nro?p. First, He quiets the tempest in
the disciples hearts, rebuking their un
belief and calming their fears. t.cn
He stills the storm without, reb'i'.cing
tho winds and the sea, "and there was
a great calm." It was all done with
out effort, naturally, calmly, as a rod.
tt reads like the story of crovlnn.
Here is one among men who weis
the crown of kingly authority over tlie
forces of nature. No wonder the as
tonished disciples exclaimed. "What
manner of man Is this that even the
winds and the sea obey Him?" .n
wonder that John writing long after
of this wondering being, said. "In the
beginning was tho word, and the wed
was with God, and the word was Cod.
All things were made by Him and
without Him was not anything made
that was made." He who In the be
ginning had let slip the winds of heav
en out of His fingers could easily drive
them back into their caverns. He. out
of whose palm had dropped all the elv
ers, and all the seas, and all the
oceans had only to speak the word ot
command and the boisterous waves
crouched at His feet In humble sub
mission. This was not the only time in the
career of the King that He proved
Himself master of the natural world.
While there was never any outgoing
of His power to meet His own per
sonal needs there was never any
diminution of His power to help those
who were In peril from the elements.
He was In His world, the Master and
King of it, always, and everywhere.
Ruler of the Invisible.
But visible nature Is not man's only
environment. There Is an unseen uni
verse besides to which man Is more
or less subject. We are all conscious
of an Invisible world, surrounding us
on all sides, mysterious, Incomprehen
sible, yet exerting an influence over
us which we cannot escape. We are
Just as much moved upon by that
world as we are by this. This world
affects our physical nature, that world
affects our moral nature and. "ve can
not escape It Whatever may be
meant by demoniac possession, the
old-fashioned statement that some
people are possessed of the devil em
bodies a great truth. There are
storms In the spiritual world, more to
be dreaded than electrical storms In
the material world, moro terrible by
far than any cyclono that ever raged
over a western prairie town. Rut the
King of men Is Master even hern.
Demons Own His Power.
The disciples had no sooner es
caped the peril of ono storm than
they came up against another In 'he
porson of two demoniacs men who
were under the power of an awful
brain storm. These men wero sot freo
from their peril and suffering by a
word of power, the demons which
possessed Uien being hurled into the
deep by the flat of the King. Mys'eri
ous? Yes. Incomprehensible? pos
sibly. But tho fact remains that when
men ask for tho credentials of Him
who comes claiming to be the Kins ot
all Kingdoms, thl3 Christ of the Now
Testament can produce them. Ills
word is power. His look Is aut,horl'.y.
His attraction Is universal. He Is In
world, but not of It. Great nature,
which Is tho master of ordinary men,
recognizes His authority, "the wlud
and the sea obey Him," aud "the
Prince of the Power of tho Air." and
all his legions, ground tho weapons ol
their rebellion at His feet, and ro'reat
In abject torror to their subterranean
abodes.
Therefore, whenever the King of
the Invisible world came In contact
with tho powers of darkness, one look,
ono word of command from Him was
all that was necessary to evict the
domon that had camped upon tho ter
ritory of the huraau body. The pow.
era of darkness recognized His author
ity and retreated beforo His Kluglj
presence.

Why are you more tired in the morning

You are quite played out. The truth is
you habitually overload your stomach.
Your liver is congested and your bowels

Take one or two each night when you re

take the place of Smith's 1'ineapple and
Butternut Pills, for they possess not only
the antiseptic and resolvent properties of
pineapple, but also the laxative and tonic
properties of butternut. They improve
digestion, assimilation and nutrition, and
stimulate a torpid liver or a sluggish condi

recommend. They form no habit. You
should always keep them on hand. These
