"I'll be there in an hour," Joe Lawrence said. "Please, Joe." she said, "don't drive too fast." "I won't," he said. The sergeant took Mary back to her cell. She sat on the cot and waited until she heard Joe's voice. She heard Joe say, "Where Is she?" And the next moment Joe and the sergeant came down the corridor.

The sergeant opened the door. Joe put his arm around her. Mary let him. They walked down to the sergeant's desk. Eddie Tolllver stood there, looking very fierce.

Along a certain region of the now famous Beaumont front, the morning of attack, September 12, 1918, was ushered in with a heavy mist and rain, the latter continuing until well along in the afternoon.

Down through the centunes, the vogue for the pigeons did not wane. Before the coming of the telegraph this method of communication had a considerable popularity among stock brokers and financiers.

During the Franco-Prussian War a pigeon postal service was established between Tours and Pari3 which was recognized by the British Government. Mail was delivered at the rate of half a franc per word, the messages being set up in small type micro-photographed on thin films of collodion, inclosed in small quills and attached to the bird's tail feathers.

One took her by each arm. She shook them off.

"I can walk," she said. She walked down a long corridor between them. They opened an iron grille. Mary walked in. The cell was lighted by a single electric bulb.

There was a cot on either side. A slim young Negress sat on one of the cots, with her head in her hands. The door clanged behind Mary. She sat down on the unoccupied cot. The young Negress stared at her with dark, sad eyes.

"What are you in for?" she asked. "It's all a mistake," Mary said. The girl smiled a faint ironical smile as if to say that one expected such a reply from a white woman. "What are you in for?" Mary asked. The girl raised her eyebrows and shrugged her shoulders.

"I knifed my friend," she said. Mary stared at the girl. She looked mild. She looked young and gentle and sweet. "What for?" Mary asked.

"He was foolin 'round with another woman." the girl said. "I got jealous." "Did you hurt him badly?" Mary asked. "Yes, ma'am," the girl said. "I hurt that man bad. But the doctor he say he'll get well." The young Negress dropped her head in her hands.

Mary sat upright on the couch. She would have to call up Joe Lawrence. There wasn't anybody else. She would have to call up Joe. "How do you call the sergeant?" she asked the girl.

"I dunno," the girl replied, 'less you rattle them bars." Mary rattled the bars. The sergeant came down the hall.

"After all," he said, "we were told to look for Shifty Sadie in a Rinaldo roadster. And this lady was in a Rinaldo roadster and" he fumbled at a folder and opened It "and there's Sadie's picture." Joe Lawrence looked at the picture and then he looked at the sergeant. "And you think Miss Burleigh looks like that?" "Well," the sergeant said, "I don't now. But what about this applejack and burglars' tools?" "The applejack is mine," Eddie Tolllver Bald. "The tools are some things I picked up for our shop.

"I don't know whether we will or not," Joe Lawrence said. "I'm pretty sore." "Oh, Joe," Mary cried. "Please. He was just as courteous as he could be." "You see how the lady feels," the sergeant said. "All right," Joe Lawrence said.

Unless, of course. Judge Taylor should rule out all claimants. As in the past, there have been charges and counter-charges. Mrs. Schenker and Mrs.

Brown, in their suit, claimed that Attorney Jacob-son and his associate. Alfred F. Tompkins, had "exercised undue arts and fraudulent prcctices and resorted to misrepresentations to induce and influence Edward W. Morrison to execute such will." They charged also that the two lawyers had secured for themselves sums totaling $500,000 from Morrison and from the trust company, "under the guise of solicitors' fees." Despite all these costly legal battles and the present drop in prices, Jacobson says the estate is still worth more than $2,000,000. How soon this will go to build the home for the aged that Captain Morrison dreamed of only a lawyer could say.

And all this for a few square blocks of ordinary earth, scarcely make such a mistake again." Eddie Tolllver took his car and drove off. Joe Lawrence put Mary into his roadster and followed. "Where are we going?" Mary asked. Joe Lawrence stopped the car.

"Back to the party," Joe Lawrence said. "But don't they all know I ran away?" "Yes," Joe said, "they do." his decision could "scarcely be regarded as willing compliance," he was nevertheless glad to resume his official visits. He expressed the hope that there might be no further "disturbed relations." He would come, he said, to confirm a class on March 13. This Dr. Guthrie hailed as "highly satisfactory." Tee confirmation came off all right, and everything seemed peaceful, although it was noted in the newspaper accounts of the confirmation that neither side had taken anything back.

Dr. Guthrie continued his lectures in other cities on the subject of making religion dramatic and dynamic, and the Federal Council of Churches named a committee to determine Just how far the Guthrie movement had penetrated. And now the difficulty concerning the "Body and Soul Clinic." their moral and esthetic sense be corrupted; otherwise, he predicted, the abuse of the sculptor's art would bring about a prohibition of all art, just as abuses of saloon privileges had brought on the eighteenth amendment. All of this was spread over a period of more than eight years, and was not nearly so close-packed and fervid as the enumeration of events might make it appear. BUT feeling ran pretty steady, if not high, and there was constant and undeniable hostility.

So It was with apparent relief and joy that Bishop Manning read last January that Dr. Guthrie had decided to dispense with his dance programs for the time, due to lack of funds. In his dignified Gothic Episcopal rtsidnce, the little Bishop sat and wrote Dr. Guthrie that, while errant member of the family to forsake his sensational ways. The prayer, like the private remon-stration.

Feems to have been lost in the shuffle. Dr. Guthrie sank his teeth into prohibition and gave it a good ripping. He criticised the architecture of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the Bishop's pet project and pride.

He said the prayer book, with its unvarying rigidity, was "a millstone around the neck of the Anglican Church." He preached a sermon in which he broached the idea that dogs develop souls. He said if Bishop Manning didn't like 'ritual dances, let him or anyone else start a church trial. There was no trial. He denounced the public statues of New York City as "inspirations of horror," and said that three-quarters of them should be hidden from the eyes of innocent children, lest THE church became a haven for the Bahai cult, an offshoot of Mohammedanism based on the improvement of the race. In the presence of Big Chief White Hawk Eagle, maize was planted in the churchyard.

'But but, Joe," Mary Burleigh said, "I want to explain to you." Joe Lawrence took her in his arms and kissed her and she kissed him back. "Darling." he said, and his voice was utterly convincing, "don't you know I love you?" "I love you, too," Mary Burleigh said. "That's that's why I was such a fool and was so nasty and so childish.

I was so mad about you and" She hesitated and Joe Lawrence kissed her. "And," he said, "you couldn't quite bear to give up and admit "No," Mary Burleigh said.

When has ruled upon this Though the title "Despair" has been given to this marble, Rodin himself would probably have preferred to give it, with the majority of his other works, merely a study number, such as a musician uses. The name does, however, indicate one aspect of the artist's effort to embody the human spirit under violent emotion. Though Rodin was always a great admirer of classical sculpture, and in his later years a collector of it, his work and point of view were so at variance with the accepted interpretation of classical form that he was almost 40 years old before any recognition came to him. He was born in Paris in 184 0, of humble parentage, his father coming from Normandy and his mother from Lorraine. At 14 he entered the Petite Ecole de Dessin, a school which had numbered Fremiet, Car-peaux and Dalou among its students.

He gained some little honor at school, but failed to acquire the major awards. Necessity forced him to give the major part of his time to earning a livelihood as an assistant to various commercial sculptors, and except for his long experience in these practical ateliers, his whole training consisted of his attendance at the Petite Ecole and a class given by Barye at the Louvre. In 1863 Rodin became studio assistant to the popular sculptor Carrier Belleuse, a position he retained for almost 20 years, or until a government commission for the doors of the Musee des Arts Decoratlfs gave him opportunity for fully independent work. Its subject, "La Porte de l'Enfer," drawn from Dante's "Inferno," allowed full play to Rodin's imagination. but the complex project remained unfinished at his death.

Rodin's first success, or rather challenge to public attention, came with the exhibition of the now famous "Age of Bronze" in 18R7. He was accused of using casts from life for its creation, and years elapsed before this libel was entirely quashed. Monumental commissions, such as his "Claude Lorraine," "The Burgesses of Calais," "Victor Hugo" and "Baliac" marked a.growth of official and public approval. In spite of continued opposition. Meantime.

Rodin produced numerous striking portraits and a large quantity of generalized studies, such as the present one, which, in marble and bronze, have found their way irito almost every significant collection of modern Bculpture in existence. These smaller and more informal works express his and capacity for the type of architectural construction which is necessary to the latter. In marbles such as "Despair" Rodin's splendid capacities are shown at their best. The powerful body, convulsed by mental anguish, expresses the helplessness of physical force before spiritual distress. Note bow the treatment of the hands and feet emphasizes this idea.

Every inch of the flesh Is Instinct with life, owing to the minute attention to every slight change of surface occasioned by the supporting bone and muscle, yet rendered without blatant realism.
