Their Ride in Meier Gar 13 By ®!U GAGE CAREY .t'orrrigbial. BCL by Associated Literary Press,

Obeying my not altogether courteous summons, “Come in!” which I hart uttered in response to a brisk knocking at my studio door late one stoney night, a young man clad in motoring attire entered, and came forward to where I still remained seated before my easel. His bearing was easy and graceful, and with an unmistakable air of culture and refinement he introduced himself. ■“My name is McGork —Langford McGork. I am motoring through this part of the country, for the first time, and having heard that the scenery frem here on to the city is especially I am desirous of making the amce <af the trip by daylight.’,’ • Please be seated, Mr. McGork,” I said, offering him a chair before the open fireplace. "Thank you, sir,” he resumed, seating himself comfortably. “I saw the fight in your-window, and stopped to request shelter for the night. Then, as if detecting a reluctance on my part to have him, he added quickly: "I shall endeavor to put you to as little inconvenience as possible,-Mis-ter—” "Paulson —Paulson Is my name,” 1 said, “and I do not see how I can pos- ”, “Now, now, Mr, Paulson,” he pleaded, "all I want is a place to tumble down on—for I am dead tired!” "6ut my only servant goes home at night,” I argued. “I fear I can offer you very little in the way of refreshment.” t "Refreshment! —that reminds me,” he said cheerily. "I have a large basket in my car—really, a capital cold and, if 1 remember a bottle or two. .Before this tine oTd fireplace we two could have a cozy enough evening of it—if you say the word!” . , As we were finishing the repast, he ’chanced to look up at the canvas upon which I-had been musing when he came to my door—a young girl 1 had painted as “The Lady in Brown.” The picture now lacked only a few finishing touches. I savy him. give a

slight start. Then his face changed color as his gaze fell upon the canvas, and I heard him murmur in ecstacy: "That's the girl—sure as I’m sitting here!” “When did she sit for you?” he continued eagerly. “Where is she now?” Before I could attempt to answer him the clatter of a horse’s hoofs sounded without. The next moment the horseman came to a sudden stop before iny door. I stepped forward to open it. As I did so, a messenger dismounted from a dripping steed and handed me a letter, with the words: “For Mr. Paulson. Bearer does not wait.” Leisurely mounting again, he rodeb otf into the night. I turned back to my guest and closed the door. “You must pardon me a moment,” I said, a strange dread coming over me; “this seems to be a matter requiring immediate attention.” I tore open the envelope. As I read I began to clutch the paper convulsively; it was from an artist friend of mine in the city—Fernandez Bretillac. The contents were most ■alarming—horrifying I For a moment I sat dumfounded, the letter still clutched in my nerveless fingers; then suddenly I turned to my guest. ‘Sir. McGork, we are going to start at once for the city!” He looked, at me amazed. "It must be done!” I answered, pushing him on, protesting, out through the door. “I know the roads. Get me into the city by twelve o’clock —and I promise you that you will,be speaking with the lady herself—before daybreak!” He darted for the car as though ehot out of a catapult. "Jump in!” he shouted hoarsely. "TU get you there or blow the car and th* two of ue—into Kingdom Come!” In another moment I was seated beside him, but even as I clambered in. I caught a quick glimpse of the number painted ajt the end in large white figures; It was No. 13! The road for the first twenty miles •fu a straight Jjevei stretch and at

that hour was well nigh deserted. My companion pulled the speed lever over to the limit. We rushed on at a rate which, (< to me, seemed terrific! The yellow glare of our lamps only made the surrounding darkness more impenetrable; it was like an appalling shroud of black hanging ovei us. Still, I felt every confidence in the man at the wheel. He sat there, frigid and Intense —but In no way, per turbed. Already he had convinced me that he was the master of the great throbbing machine. For a time we sped on in silence Then, as I gradually became accustomed to the plunging flight of the car, I lessened my hold on the seat got out the letter from poor Bretillac, and by the gleam of a small flash light began reading the epistle to my companion—that he might better understand the urgent need of such des perate haste: “My Dear Paulson. “This is the end; at the stroke of twelve I shall lock the door of my studio, close the windows and crevices —turn on the gas—and pass into ob livion. Do not blame me for this deed. I fought against it, but in vain * * ♦ Stella and my wife are spending the night at her mother’s; it is for their sake I send for you. 1 know you cannot reach me before the end —but I want you to be here as soon after as possible—to see to things—and break the news to them For this accept my grateful thanks — and good-bye—forever.

“FERNANDEZ.” I folded the letter and replaced it in my pocket. “Bug-house!” observed McGork, laconically. “Well, yes,” I responded, “at very rare, intervals he has been subject to hallucinations —but only of short duration.” His only response was a slight move of a lever which sent us whirring and plunging ahead at still greater speed. We sped on in silence. At. length I could restrain myself no longer, and I asked: “Mr. McGork—are you indeed so anxious to see Miss Estella Moore?” “Anxious!” he ejaculated impetuously, “For two years I have searched everywhere for that woman without finding the slightest trace! For two whole years I have thought of hei constantly by .day—dreamed of her by night!” “Humph!” ‘ “I met. her on the steamer returning from Europe. She • was with her mother—part of the time. I shall never forget that voyage—the cozynooks —the moonlight promenades! Oh, it was heavenly—but perhaps 1 bore you?”

f?‘Some,” I replied, “but go on.” / “Before we were two days out I was madly infatuated with her, and she — I believe —reciprocated my affection. Then, two hours before we landed in New York, we had a quarrel, a foolish, lovers’ quarrel. She said that it would perhaps be best to forget everything—and never see each other again. I agreed with her fully and have spent the last two years thinking of her, trying to find her!” “That possibly accounts for some moping I have seen on her part!” 1 observed, unguardedly. “Do you mean that? Do you reallf think she has missed me? Mr. Paulson —you make me the happiest man—”

“Now, now!” I remonstrated, “she may have been moping about something else entirely. I have observed that she had not seemed as happy at times as‘l should have liked to see her.” We did not reach the studio of Fernandez Bretillac by twelve o’clock. Just at the city limits we underwent a number of exasperating delays. It was nearer 12:30 berore we finally reached his apartments, and with fear and dread made our way up the winding stairs to his studio. i We found the door locked —the key removed from the inside and the keyhole stopped up. We broke in the door. Reclining peacefully upon a low couch was the form of Fernandez, Bretillac —he had carried out the attempt of his poor, deranged mind! He was still breathing feebly. I threw open the windows, then ’phoned for a physician, and sent a cab for Estella and her mother. Before any of them arrived, Bretillac had returned to consciousness. I did not witness the meeting of McGork and Estella Moore. I was busy at the moment assisting Mrs. Bretillac in caring for her .husband. When I did get a chance to glance in their direction, they were standing close together. They both looked radiantly happy, which, after all, was only natural —seeing that we had succeeded so well in saving Fernandez. . In-half an hour the artist, though still faint and dizzy, was able to sit up in a chair and converse with us; and the ladies, for the first time, ceased chiding themselves for having gone away and left him, knowing as they did, his recurring attacks. Finally he explained to us why it was he was late in carrying out his project. It seems that just’before turning on the gas he had attempted to call up a certain nujnber on the ’phone, to arrange some business details. "Central,” as it'happened, was cross and sleepy, and kept him waiting, and snapped him off so short he finally hung up the receiver in disgust. The delay unquestionably saved a human life. Bretillac and his wife now attempted to thank me. Estella joined in prettily with: “We havb so much to thank you for!” “My friends,” I remarked serenely, “don’t attempt to thank me. Thank the factors that have united in mak-, 4ug motor-cars so fast * * * and telephone operators—so slow!”

BAD BOY WHO STOLE LUNCH Mother, WhoiYs Touched by Kindness of Heart Shown by Son, Put Straight by Teacher. Here la a little story that is vouched for in the East end. A small boy appeared before his mother one afternoon leading another smalt boy by the hand. The stranger was dirty and tattered and uni combed. "Mamma," said the petted child, I’vo brought Jimmy here home with me to get him somethin’ to eat. A bad boy stole his lunch, an’ he’s aw ful hungry.” The mother wasn’t at all pleased with Jimmy's appearance, but it gratified her to know that her son had a kind heart. “You may take him to the kitchen, Edward,” she said, “and Della will give him what he wants." The next day Edward’s mother met Edward’s teacher. "No doubt you were surprised,” said the teacher, "because I sent that little boy home with Edward. But Edward had taken the boy’s lunch and eaten it, and 1 thought it only right that he should make amends in that way!”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

® I JEW SCORED ON ARISTOCRAT 111-Bred Remark Brought Discomfiture on l Duke of Westminster and His Companion. A friend of mine who is in Cairo just now told me a good story in a recent letter of an old Jew of that city who scored off the young duke of Westminster and his inseparable companion, Lord Rocksavage, when they were there a few weeks ago. They were buying some jewelry in the bazar there, and the duke remarked audibly to his friend: “The fool doesn’t speak English of course." But the fool understood well enough. “Do you snik Italian?" he asked them, to which*they replied in the negative. “Do you spik Grik?” “No.” “Do you spik Turk?” “No.” “Do you spik • Russian ?’’ "No." “Me one time fool,” said the old man after a short but eloquent paus.e; “you five times fool!"
