PLAYING THE GAME. Chapter 36.
For a week or bo after I made the decision, everything went beautifully. I never complained of being tired, though I often was so. I never said I was thoroughly bored, though some of the people we went around with were most tiresome. "Gwen was down at the office today," "Win said one afternon. "She is dining informally at home, and asked us." I had planned something else that nisht. and unwisely protested. " I really wanted to go to see a pick woman this evening," I said. "We might go to Gwendolyn's later, and dine here at home. "Who's sick?" "Our laundress, she's "
"For heaven's sake, Connie," he burst out in sudden anoyance, "why do you waste your time like that? I know it is very nice and charitable and very swet of you and all that sort of thing, but leave charity to homely old women." "Win!" I protested. "What a way to talk! Look at the good your mother does at home " "That's just it. She runs a dozen families around Wellsville. Don't you get into anything like that." Possibly he caught an expression in my face, for his atitude changed at once. He came across the room and put his arras around me. Don't mind when I talk like a pig," he coaxed. "Mother probably doe3 a lot of good. But you are so young and pretty. Charity is a graceful profession for the aged and homely." , "You've heard Gwen say that. It founds like her," I remarked, for once not. responding to his caress. "I did," he said, and laughed.
"Come on out and dance with me this evening. We are going to dance at Gwen's after dinner. Charity begins at home, you know, and I am your husband. "Win, do you love me very much?" 1 asked suddenly. "Of course, little goose." He kissed me to prove it. That kiss ended whatever doubts 1 had as to the wisdom of my new decision. I dressed in my prettiest, and I was as charming as I could be at Gwen's that night. Gwen had a new enthusiasm, a musician whom she was trying to push. Win thought this charitable of her, for the man had some talent, but no money. I am afraid I thought otherwine. The chap was very handsome, with a certain sentimentality of manner that I personaly did not like I thought he over-did it. "I don't like him," Win confided af
ter dinner. "But it is charming of her
to have him around.
There were a dozen of us, a few rather influential men and women who were patrons and stockholders in fome of the big musical societies. The musician was evidently there tj be introduced. After dinner he played, very efficiently, very brilliantly from the technical viewpoint, but utterly without feeling. "Such emotionalism, such tonal qualities," a friend of the musician's, said to Gwen. "Such emotionalism, such tonal qualities." I heard her repeat to the wealthy patrons of music, who nodded, rarhaps politely, perhaps because they were impressed. The women smoked, of course. Most of them did among the people wo knew. The cigarettes in a great antique silver box, were always being passed. "My sweet little blue and pink
cherub does not smoke," Gwen said, putting an affectionate hand on my arm. "So nice to see one women who doesn't, these days, isn't it?" "You are mistaken. I always smoke." I answered. I had to give it up by the doctor's orders when I was ill." The musician handed me a cigarette and held the match while I lit it. As a matter of fact. I had only smoked once before. Every girl doe:? once in her life. That time I was 13 and in boarding school. I did not like the cigarette, but I had been among people who smoked so frequently that I was not awkward handling it. And I managed to takt very few puffs and to let it lie be tween my fingers burning itself out. My hostess looked somewhat siitprised. Win looked quite amazed. He

reckless be
fore. I felt his eyes coming back to
me again and again. But I pretended I did not notice. "May I sit here by you? You are so soft and so refreshing after somo of the women one meets in these big cities," the musician said. "You arc like apple blossoms after one has been smelling peonies or living among orchids." "After that I could not let you go!" I smiled up at him, and pulled aside
my dress so he could sit' on the couch with me. . I kept him there all evening. I did not like him, but I was playing a game. He was part of it; the cigarette was part of it. I looked about the room. I needed more material for my game. I saw a strange little man. sitting on a low stool watching me. I had forgotten his name. I wished suddenly he would come over and talk to
me, and I wish that I was not smoking that odious cigarette. But the game had to be played. I was playing for life and love and happiness. Tomorrow I Have a Shock.

Mrs. Albert Y. Goewen
LOYAL TO THE END
NEW YORK. Aug. 22. Crushed beneath a steel gate weighing more than 200 pounds which fell on him while he was playing in DeWitt Clinton Park this afternoon, Harold Flynn, three and a half years old, for more than half an hour before he became unconscious told scores of his playmates, who were vainly attempting to lift the gate, not to tell his mother. The boy died in Roosevelt Ho3 pital a few minutes after he reached that institution. With his brothers William and Robert, Harold left his home to play in the park. There are two gates leading to this field, each cf which weighs more than 200 pounds. Harold jumped upon one of thJ steel hinges and a moment later the gate fell with a crash.
William and Robert screamed
for help, and in a moment hundreds of the children and youths ran to the scene. "Don't tell mom." pleaded Harold over and over until he lost consciousness.
NEW YORK, Aug. 22. The ninety
eight foot power yacht, Speejacks,

F. Trevor Hogg, captain of thr 191fj
Princeton footbaii team, are sailing I
on the Speejacks, wnich has left port for an eighteen-months' cruise that
will include the South Seas. China, Philippines, northern coast of Africa and perhaps South America. "It's a sort of an adventure," said Mr. Rogers, assistant navigator to Mr. Hogg. Mr. Goewen, who had the yacht built especially for the trip, intends to explore rivers and wander among the South Sea Islands. With a larger boat or one even smaller than the Speejacks, unless constructed for the purpose, this would be impossible, according to Mr. Rogers.
