Love and
Letters
By H. IRVING KING

(Copyright.)
V HEN a man proposes to a girl
he should do it by word of
{ mouth, but Jack Benton wrote his dec-
laration to Arabella Porter and came
| near dying a bachelor in 2onsequence
if he hadn’t had a taste for low com.
pany he would have done so. It is
I only fair to Jack ie say. however. that
he had a taste for low company be-
cause low company was profitable to
hin.
Jack, you see, was a writer and had
develope: a knack of writing stories
of the underworld which made his
stuff saleable to magazine and Sun-
day newspapers. What he aspired to
write was love stories.
“For heaven's sake, Benton, drop
lovers and stick to crooks,” said Whit-
marsh, the editor of the Sunday
Trumpet, as he handed Jack back one
of his stories dealing with the tender
I passion. And Jack did stick to crooks,
though 1e was determined that some
day he would write a love story that
would make the editors sit up and
take notice. It was because of his
firm belief, in spite of all that had
been told him by people who ran mag-
azines and newspapers, that he was
able to just “charm the bird off the
bush” when he wrote on love, that
he put his proposal of marriage to
Arabella in written form. He read it
over, pronounced it perfect, mailed
it and awaited a reply.
A week went br and he was still
waiting. He waited confidently at
first, then hopelessly. Faith glided
into an agonized suspense and suspense |!
into an agonized certainty. The cruel
Bella had not even deigned to ac-
knowledge his passionate avowal of
love. Now and then a horrible thought
would come to him. Was it possible
that the editors were right, and that
he was not such a crackerjack at writ.
ing on love as he thought he was?
But he dismissed the thought as un-
worthy of his keen literary perception.
Once or twice he considered going up
to Bella’s house, and demanding to
know what was the matter. But no—
he would not humiliate himself so far.
He had poured out his heart in that
letter of his and if she had not appre
ciated it—well then life henceforth
was to be a dreary waste.
But Jack was doing Arabella an
injustice. She had received his let-
ter—and she had answered it. In her
reply she had saic all that could be
said to rejoice the heart of her suitor.
She put the letter in the mailbox, cal-
culated just how long it would take
for it to reach Jack and then sat down
to wait his coming. But he came not.
Could it be possible that Jack had
been playing a joke on her—toying
with her affections?
Meantime Jack went on writing
about crooks—he had to live in spite
of blasted hopes—and frequenting
places where he could meet crooks
and get “local color.” In the under-
world he had made many friends who
knew that he was harmless and would
never “squeal” on them. (Crooks don’t
mind reading about Crookdom at all;
they rather like it—provided nothing
is given away that should not be given
away.
Jack used to meet his crooked
friends in resorts of a perfectly re-
spectable appearance frequented by
perfeetly respectable-appearing people.
Unless you were “in the know” you
would never suspect what kind of a
place you had got into. He was
seated in one of these resorts gloomily
eating chop suey one night when Nifty
Jim strolled in, faultlessly dressed as
nsual and wearing upon his face that
charming smile which had been the
financial undoing of so many confid-
ing persons.
“Hello,” said Nifty. taking a seat
opposite Jack; “how goes the merry
whirl of literature? Speaking of lit-
erature; I've got something to show |
you that’s a corker. One of our crowd
is now and then able to do a little in-
side post office work for us. A week
ago he brought down a bunch of let-
ters which we went over down at
Loftus’ place. Pretty poor pickings—

drivel as that? And he handed
across the table Arabella’s reply to
Jack's letter. Jack read it through,
| comprehension of what it was grad-
gally dawning upop him. .
“Nifty,” said he rising to his feet,
“you have been a college man | know;
but you must have been rotten in Eng-
lish. That is the most beautiful and
touching thing I ever read.”
Half an hour later Jack and Bella
were discussing bridesmaids and
orange blossoms.
Sea Reclaiming Island
The island of Capri offers an un-
usual example of submergence within
nistoric times In ancient times a sea
cave, now known as Blue grotto, was
used by the Romans as a resort from
excessive heat. In order to obtain
light, an opening was cut in the roof.
Since that time the island has sunk
so that even rhe artificial opening is
now partially submerged. In some
caves of the Bermuda island sta
lactites hang from the roof and ex
tend into the sea water, which par
tially fills the cave. Stalactites obvi
ously could not have been formed in
water, proving that at one time the
island had a greater elevation. These
islands seem to be disappearing, but
in this case the process is a very slow
one.
Electricity to Induce Fever
Electricity has been used success-
fully in inducing an artificial fever in
some patients suffering from {lls
which are combated by fever, notably
paresis, says Popular Mechanics Mag-
azine. The use of fever in treating
certain diseases is based on the the-
ory that fever is one of the major de-
fensive measures of the body against
invading organisms, Previously ma-
laria had been used to produce fever,
but doctors recently have raised tem-
peratures by using an electric current
from a diathermy machine which was
found to give better control of the de-
gree and duration of the fever.
Climbing Popocatepetl
The height of Mount FPopocatepetl
is 17,888 feet. The ascent of the vol-
cano is made on the northeastern
slope, where there are rough roads
which are kept open a greater part of
the year. At an eleyation of about 14,-
500 feet horses are left behind. Diego
de Ordaz was probably the first Euro-
pean to make the ascent. Other ex-
ploration trips were made in April and
November, 1827, in 1834 and 1848. In
1905 the Mexican geological survey
spent two days on the slope.
Peace for Pants’ Sake
“Mother,” announced Donald, as he
burst in from school, “I had a fight
with Jimmie today.”
“Mercy!” gasped his mother, “What
in the world!” Then she queried,
“But who won this fight?”
“Oh, neither one of us,” explained
Donald, “We just quit. You see, 1
happened to look down, and found 1
had on my new pants, Of course, I
knew I mustn't fight in them, so we
quit.”
She Knew
From Sunday’s dinner mother served
a mixture that evening that tasted
good. “What's this?” Dad asked.
“That’s goulash,” mother answered.
“Oh,” said little Hetty, “I know
what that is. I wear one on each foot
when it rains.”
Funeral Fun
Jack's mother told him to go to his
grandmother's and spend the after-
noon and to tell her that mother was
going to a funeral.
“Let me go with you, mother, I nev-
er have had any funeral fun,” said the
pleading four-year-old.

ULIA met him at one of those down-
town restaurants where light and
color and dancing and jazz are the
predominant notes. There were also
many pretty girls to gladden the muas-
culine eye,
“1 wonder what pleasure you get—
coming to these places?” Julian ques-
tioned him and gazed frankly into his
gloom-filled eyes. “You don't seem to
be hilariously interested in your sur-
roundings.”
Donald Mills looked back at the in-
telligent rather than pretty face of
the girl whom he had met a half hour
before and smiled a more or less pa-
thetic smile.
“I don’t know. 1 come, however,
nearly every evening—that is when
I'm not up at the Hargrave's flat,
They don’t mind my dropping in there
—I seem to go in spite of myself. I
detest staying home,”
“What's the matter with home?”
asked Julia with her bright engaging
smile. “What is in your interior
that—"
Donald actually laughed.
“Chicken salad—for the moment and
soon 1 suppose it will be a cup of
black coffee.”
After laughing with him she pur-
sued her subject. “Your
terior, I mean. What color?
“1 couldn't tell you. Green and red,
1 fancy. Nothing startling except that |
the walls are a vicious shade of drab |
green with brown trees all over them.” |
“How perfectly awful !” Julia, sensi- |
tive to color in a marked degree, shud- |
dered. She recalled now the joyous |
cheer of the Hargrave’'s flat with its |
warm orange and yellow and Chinese
blue,
“It’s no wonder you can’t stay
home.” She looked eagerly at him and
wondered if she dare suggest that she

try ner hand at brightening up his
home. She had done a fair number of
houses and was gradually working up
a nice business of her own. “I wonder
if you would let me decorate your
rooms for you—just as an experiment
in psychology?” she finally asked. “I
do this type of work, but if you will
let me do your home 1 will do it at
my own expense. It will be interest-
ing to me to know whether or not I
can make it possible for you to remain
at home evenings, A home,” she
added with one of the sweetest smiles,
“should be a place which ures a man’s
soul to it even when he is hard at
work in the office.’
“It you could make me think of
dashing home-—during business hours
—just for the joy and peace of being
there—well,” Donald offered the nicest
kind of smile to her, “then any ex-
pense you are put to will be more
than repaid. [I tly at present from my
rooms as if a hornet’s nest were
there.”
When Julia had her first glimpse of
his rooms she drew back with the feel-
ing that a mad man bad chosen the
things within them. However, sha
took her courage in hand and went to
work to bring cheer and beauty where
the most profound ugliness held sway.
First thing Julia did was to send
the assorted collection of furniture,
oak, mahogany, birch, all to work-
rooms have them made a rich shade
of blue enamel and upholstered, where
necessary, in fine velvet to match.
“Men love velvet,” she mused.
She had the walls stripped of the
hideous paper and a lustrous glazed
copper put on instead. All rhe wood-
work was done to match che chairs.
She hung softest of gold curtains at
the windows and sent his fearful carpet
to the dyers to be made a good shade
of blue. She scattered a few wonder-
ful Chinese cushions about and put in
two lamp shades of old gold, one be-
hind the comfortable sofa and another
over his work table.
“But can’t | come over once, just
to see how you are getting on?” he
had asked her in the beginning when
she had turned him out to board for
a few weeks.
“Not one peep until it is all done,”
Julia had insisted.
Donald’s bedroom she made all buff
and deep warm crimson,
“All men love red,” she told herself,
and was really pleased with the two
rooms when finished.
When Donald saw his rooms for the
first time he drew a long breath of
quiet admiration
For the first time in several drab
years Donald had a desire to leave the
office and sink down info that wonder-
ful old chair under the lamp and read

It was Donald who had become

with complete adoration in his eyes on
one rare occasion when she graced his
party. “Are you doing many bache

and when she nodded with deepened
color. he asked, “And do they all fall
