AGED AMERICAN INHERITS TITLE Nlnety-Four-Year-Oid Resident of Washington Becomes English Peer. By United Xezcs LONDON, Aug. IS.—Henry Edward Pellew, 94, a resident of Washington, IX C., Inherits a peerage and becomes & viscount through the death of the fifth Viscount of Exmouth here Thursday. The late viscount, whose family name was Edward A. Pellew, was a bachelor, 32 years old. He succeeded at the age of S to the peerage which was created more than 100 years ago. Henry Edward Pellew of Washington is the eon of the first viscount. He went to the United States from England at am early age and married the daughter of the late Judge William J. Bedford of Xew York. Upon the death of his wife, Pellew married her younger sister. FEARS AFFECT OF NEWS Daughter of Heritor Believes Shock May Injnre Feeble Man. By United Xevs WASHINGTON, Aug, IS.—Unaware he had become the sixth Viscount Ermouth, Henry Edward Pellew, aged philanthropist, dozed peacefully in his library, while his daughter first learned of the Inheritance from tire United News. "I shall keep the news from him i until morning,” she said. “I fear the ordeal of notifying my father of the fact. He will be astonished, for the peerage Iras not teen mentioned in , the family for years. Father is 94, j cuite deaf, and his feeble health may suffer because of this.” Pellew is an American citizen, and i has devoted his life to philanthropy. ; For many years he has lived in the exclusive section of Washington, near 1 Senator Lodge's residence. With the title of Viscount of Ex- i mouth, Pellew inherits a large estate. Because h is an American cith I aen, he will be unable to accept the peerage without first renouncing his ; ■citizenship. It is probable that the new j viscount's son, Charles A. Pellew, of : New York, will return to London to take charge of the Exmouth estate and upon the death of his father, will j live in England as Viscount Exmouth i

The Red House Mystery A. A. I MILNE
(Continued) “Cayley asked us .to bring a letter along,” Bill explained to Betty Calladlne. "Here you are.” “You will tell him, won’t you, how dreadfully sorry I am about—about what has happened? It seems so ! hopeless to say anything; so hopeless even to believe it. If it is true what we’ve heard." Bill repeated the outline of the events of yesterday. “Yes. . . . And Mr. Ablett hasn’t been found yet?*’ “No.” She shook her head in distress. “It still seems to have happened to somebody else; somebody we didn’t know at all." Then, with a sudden grave smile which Included both of them, “But you must come and have some tea.” “It’s awfully decent of you,” said Bill awkwardly, “hut we—er —” “You will, won't yon?” she said to Antony. “Thank you vary much." Mrs. Xorbury recognized at once that Antony was likely to be the more sympathetic listener; and when tea was over and Bill and Angela had been dispatched to the garden, dear Mr. Gillingham found himself on the sofa beside her, listening to many things which were of even greater interest to him than she could possibly have hoped. “It is terrible, terrible," she said. ■'And to suggest that dear Mr. Ablet t—" Antony made suitable noises. “You’ve seen Mr. Ablett for yourself. A kinder, more warmhearted man—” Antony explained that he had not seen Mr. Ablett. “Os course, yes, I was forgetting. But. believe me, Mr. Gillingham, you can trust a woman’s intuition in these matters.” Antony said that he was sure of this. “Think of my feelings as a mother.” Antony was thinking of Miss Norbury's feelings as a daughter, and j wondering if she guessed that her af- j fairs were now being discussed with a j stranger. Mark engaged, or about to I be engaged.’ Had that any tearing! on the events of yesterday? What,
“THINK OF MY FEELINGS AS A MOTHER.” for instance, would Mrs. Xorbury have thought of brother Robert, that family skeleton? Was this another rea son for wanting brother Robert out of the way? “I never liked him. never!" “Never liked—?" said Antony, bewildered. “That cousin of his —Mr. Cayley." “How did Miss Norbury get on witn him?" Antony asked cautiously. “There was nothing in that at all," said Miss Norbury’s mother emphat ically. “Nothing. I would say so to anybody.” “Oh, I beg your pardon- I never meant—" “Nothing. I can say that for dear Angela with perfect confidence Whether he made advances—" She broke off with a shrug of her plump shoulders. Antony waited eagerly. “Naturally they met. Possibly he might have—l don’t know. But my duty as a mother was clear, Mr. GJlingham-’\ Mr. Gillingham made an enoourag ing noise. “I told him quite frankly that — how shall I put It? —that ha was trespassing. Tactfully, oi course. But frankly." “You mean," said Antony, trying to speak calmly, “that you told him that—er—Mr. Ablett and your daughter—?” Mrs. Norbury nodded several times. “Exactly, Mr. Gillingham. I had my duty as a mother.” “There must have been a oertaln awkwardness about the next meeting," suggested Antony* “Naturally, he has not teen here since. No doubt they would have teen bound to meet up at the Red House sooner or later.” “Oh. this was only quite lately?” “Lost week. Mr. Gillingham. I spoke just in time.” “Ah.’” said Antony, under his breath. He had been waiting for it. He would have liked now to have gone away, so that he might have thought over the new situation by himself. But Mrs. Norbury was still talking. “G.ris are so foolish, Mr. Gillingham.” she was saying. “It is for tunate that they have mothers to gu.de them. It was so obvious to me from the beginning that dear Mr. Ablett was just the husband for my little girl. You never knew him?” Antony said again that he had not een Mr. Ablett. srntVmaa So nice-looking in his artistic way. A regular Yalasquez—l should say Van Dyck. Angela would have It that she could never marry a man with a beard. As

j If that mattered, when—” She broke 1 off, and Antony finished her sentence | for her. “The Red House is certainly charming.” he said. I “Charming. Quite charming." I She gave a deep sigh. Antony was I about to snatch the opportunity of j leaving, when Mrs. Norbury began j again. “And then there's this scapegrace brother of his. He was perfectly frank with me, Mr. Gillingham. He told, me of this brother, and I told him that I was quite certain it would make no difference to my daughter’s feelings for him. • • After all, the brother was in Australia.” “When was this? Yesterday?” Antony felt that, If Mark had only mentioned it after his brother’s announcement of a personal call at the Red House, this perfect frankness had a good deal of wisdom behind it. “It couldn't have been yesterday, Mr. Gillingham. Yesterday—" she shuddered, and shook her head. “I thought perhaps he had been down here in the morning." “Oh, no! There is such a thing, Mr. Gillingham, as Heing too devoted a lover. Not in the morning, no. We both agreed that dear Angela—Oh. no. No; tho day before yesterday, when ha happened to drop in about tea time.” It occurred to Antony that Mrs. Norbury had come a long way from her opening statement that Mark and Miss Norbury were practically engaged. She was now admitting that dear Angela was not to bo rushed, that dear Angela had, inded, no heart for the match at all. “The day before yesterday. As it happened, dear Angela was out. Not that it mattered. He was driving to Middleston. He hardly had time for i a cup of tea, so that even if she had ] been in—” Antony nodded absently. This was something new. Why did Mark go to Middleston the day before yesterday? But, after all. why shouldn’t
Five Important Qualities for Girl to Represent City
Five Important qualities Miss Indianapolis must possess have been advanced by Mrs. Anna Kirsch of 848 W. Twenty-Ninth St, in a letter to The Times Pageant Editor. They aj-e as follows: First, she should be good looking. Second, nice acting. Third, bom and bred in Indianapolis. Fourth, willing to wed a 100 per cent Indianapolis man. Fifth, be willing to spend rest of her iife in this our “no mean” city. Florence Riley of Lewisville, Ind., R. R. 1, voices her views on the amount of powder and paint which MisSy Indianapolis should use, as fol- j lows: “Miss Indianapolis can be beautiful without a great amount of Lip stick, bobbed hair* rolled hose, knickerbockers.” .She agrees that Miss Indianapolis may use a little rouge and powder and that her hair should be arranged attractively, “She should not be a flapper,” she writes. From Sheridan Tnd., Mary Elizabeth Muston writes as follows: “My conception of what Miss Indianapolis should be to represent the city at Atlantic City is: “First, modestly dressed. “Second, plea-sing manners. “Third, must not have bobbed hair, neither uses powder or rouge, as that will make her have a tough appearance and I don’t think that Indlnnapolts would want to be represented n that kind of a way. “Fourth, she should have the Christian spirit among people.” In answering the question what Miss Tndianapol s should be. Shepherd de Jesus of 319 N. lll.nols St., writes: In my opinion a girl with a fair beauty, pood character, pleasing peronal.ty, alertness of nund, kind heartedness, simplicity in manners and in style and, above all. a commanding power to be sympathetic, but respectable, and a genuine prototype of American woman, must te chosen to represent Indianapolis at Vtlantio City.” In writing concerning opinions of •vriters of letters which have been ir nted, Mrs. B. F. Wheelan of 5438 W. Michigan St., states: “Hav ng read many of the letters if what Miss Indianapolis should te, t seems that a recap.tulat on of a •outhera girl’s characteristics has been assumed for the one who will represent Indianapolis at Atlantio City. “Where can a girl te found who does not powder, use lipstick and the many other requisites to beautify her and make her more charming? Bobbed hair is a perfect hobby for the city giris. Every characteristic of Miss Indianapolis should be distinguished, and she should not be sent to the beauty tournament, the exact repre-

he? A hundred reasons unconnected with the death of Robert might have taken him there. He got up to go. He wanted to te alone —alone, at least, with Bill. Mrs. Norbury had given him many things to think over, but the great outstanding fact which had emerged was this: that Cayley had reason to hate Mark. Mrs. Norbury had given him that reason. To hate? Well, to be Jealous, anyhow. But that was enough. “You see,” he said to Bill, as they walked back, "we know that Cayley is perjuring himself and risking himself over this business, and that must be for one of two reasons. Either to save Mark or to endanger him. That is to say, he is either wholeheartedly for him or whole-heatedly against him. Well, now we know that he is against him, definitely against him." They had come to the gate into the last field which divided them from the road. “Jolly little place, Isn't it?” said Bill. “Very. But rather mysterious. Isn’t there a drive, or a road or anything?” “Oh, there’s a cart-track, but mo-tor-car can't come any nearer than the road”—he turned round and pointed—“up there. So the week-end millionaire people don’t take it. At least, they'd have to build a road and a garage and all the rest of it, if they did.” "I see,” said Antony carelessly, and they turned round and continued their walk up to the road. But later on he remembered this casual conversation at the gate, and saw the importance of it. CHAPTER XVT. What was it which Cayley was going to hide in that pond that night? Antony thought that he knew now. It was Mark's body. (To be Continued.)

THE ADVENTURES OF RAGGEDY ANN AND ANDY
“Sh!” whispered Raggedy Ann to Raggedy Andy as she pepped In under a mushrooom which grew out from the bark of a tree in the deep, deep woods filled with fairies ’n everything. “Don’t make a speck of noise, Raggedy Andy; there's a little weeny-teeny Elf asleep in a cobweb hammock!” "Isn’t he cute!” cried Raggedy Andy, so surprised to see the cunning little Elf he forgot to be real quiet. “There, now,” said Raggedy Ann, "you have awakened him.” "Oh. yo, hum!” the tiny little Elf yawned as he sat up in the cobweb hammock and stretched his little arms. “M-m-my! I must have been asleep a long, long time!” Then seeing the two rag dolls standing and looking at him, their rag faces each _\vith a broad smile "painted upon it, be said: “Hello, Raggedys, how are you?” “YYe are tine,” said Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy. "One could not help being happy wandering through this lovely, deep, deep woods filled with fairies ’n everything!” “Yes that is true,” laughed the teeny, weeny Elf as he crossed one

little leg over the other, “with so much to see when strolling through the woods and with the music of the birds happy in their tree swings, I do rot see how any one can help but feel their whole soul is filled with the sunshine of happiness But do you know. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy, there is a poor little old woman living in a little stone house back farther in the woods who is always very unhappy?” “Dear me! How sad! said Raggedy

Ann, "what is the trouble with her, Eddie Elf?” “Well, I’ll tell you, Raggedy Ann!” said Eddie Elf, “this poor old woman lives in the stone house all the time and she never, never comes outside at all.- She just sits there day in and day out crying.” “And don’t you try to cheer her, Eddie Elf?” asked Raggedy Andy. “Oh yes," Eddie Elf replied, "I go to see her almost every day, but she cries so loudly when I go in, I can scarcely hear myself think, so I never have feund out why she cries so much.” “Shall we go see’ the poor little oldi woman?” Raggedy Ann asked or Raggedy Andy, and, as Raggedy Andy thought it would be a good thing to do, he and Raggedy Ann followed the directions given by the little teeny weeny Eddie Elf and soon came to the little old woman's stone house. It was a cunning little stone house, not as large as some of the dog houses you see in back yards, and it had cunning little doors and windows just large enough for the size of the house. Even Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy had to stoop when they went in the front door. N There sat the little old woman In a teeny rocking chair crying as if her little heart would break. "Why are you crying so hard, Granny?" asked Raggedy Ann as she wiped the little old woman’s tears from her face. “Just see how red it 1 has made your nose.” “Your nose i§ red, too,” replied the little old woman. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy laughed and told the little old woman that their noses were just painted on their rag faces with red paint. Then the little old woman told them, ’"When I was a little girl I made some candy one day. It was very nice candy, too, for I tasted a little teenyweeny smidgin of it- The rest I planted in that flower pot over on the window-sill, so that it would grow into a candy plant, but I have watered and watered it every morning and it has never grown into a candy plant with candy on it. That is why I am so sad." Then Raggedy Ann walked over to the flower pot on the window-slJl and! wished for a rice lolly-pop plant filled with pretty lolly-pops of all flavors. “Now," said Raggedy Ann, “you can quit crying and have lots of fun, for as soon as you pick one lolly-pop another will grow In its place.”—Copyright, 1922, by Johnny Gruella.
