At fifty-five the colonel was still tit attractive mau, lie was a martinet; be believed in home discipline. And hi* sou Phil had become engaged with­ out hi* leave to an actress, . Colonel Weir bad old-fashioned ideas about actress?,®, and be was Inordi­ nately proud of the Weir name. He was pouring out bis grief to Mis* Raines. She was an extraordinarily attractive girl whom lie bad met at the beach hotel, where he had gone for « week to recuperate from the shock of the breach with Phil. And be had found such consolation is had not been his since his wife died, many,years before. He did not waht to marry Madeleine Raines. Tie was too old for that, But he would have liked to have had her about him, in some capacity, for the rest of his days. “If only the boy had had the sense to choose someone like you, Made­ leine1” he sighed, He called her that now, and she called him Harry. It was one of those delightful, quick flir­ tations that spring up between tbe young and tlie middle-aged. “ But, Harryj you haven’t even seen this girl, ! understand some actresses are quite charming,” protested Made­ leine “My dear, there hue never yet been a memUer of the stage in the Weir family,.and there never shall be with ray connivance. Either my son gives up this association or he ceases to he a son of mine.” Madeleine sighed, She felt that the colonel was unjust. And she liked the colonel. “I've given him till Monday to make up his mind dually,*' he continued, “He’s coming down then, and you shall see him for yourself. But I “guess that actress woman won't want him when she learns that he’s to be disinherited If she marries him.” "Bo you think all women ate like that, Harry?” asked Miss Raines softly. - “Most of ’em,” answered the colonel. “And me?” queried Miss Raines. How it happened the colonel never knew afterward, but he found that he bad kissed Miss Raines, and that he bad affronted her beyond pardon. She rose to her feet, icy and pale. "I thought yon were a gentleman, Colonel Weir,” she said. She received the colonel** stam­ mered apologies in silence, “Isn’t there anything X can do to Win%for- given'esa?” he asked. “It Isn’t a mattes? of forgiveness. Ton have shown me your opinion of me—oh, quite, quite plainly. Colonel Weir. You think I'm like a—like an aetreas, aml that any sum eft* Idar tat? . “I respect yon beyond every woman I've ever met Mis* Baines, I—I—-will you marry m e f be blurted out, over­ come by emotion, Madeleine shook bet bead sadly, “Yon, have convinced me, Harry,?* she said, “but—but there's another man—” “D-—n 1” mattered the colonel under his breath. “But I’ll always be a—a daughter to you, if yon want me,” ehe said, as they neared the hotel. Colonel Weir heaved a prodigious sigh. He slept unhappily, He knew his proposal had been a foolish thing, but life without Madeleine seemed the essence of boredom and loneliness. Then Monday came. The colonel, waiting to receive his son, showed no signs-of the'emotional storm he had been through; His relationship with Miss Raines had been a formal one since that unlucky episode. He stif­ fened as he saw Phil coming toward him, “Well, dadr “Well, Phil, what’s the answer!” “The same, dad.” “Then there’s nothing more to say,” said the colonel, turning away. A soft voice at his side arrested him. “Colonel, for my sake won’t you,let Phil marry the girl of his choice?” pleaded Madeleine; “Not even for yon. He—why—why, what's this?” he demanded. For Madeleine had slipped her arm through Phil's. “ I--I said Pd be a daughter to you,” she faltered, “You—you d---d young scoundrel, Phil! You—why—why—let's all ge In to lunch.” h ow to aava m o n ey ; WHEN SHOWING j >yMR$,mHM» H,AUJSN j ms - nu.

One does not weed to buy linoleum every day, and so It is Important to know quality whan making the original outlay. You judge the wearing quality of linoleum, by its surface finish and thickness, Of course In a small house you do nor need the heavy weight necessary in hospital* and institutions, but naturally the thicker the lino­ leum, the more it can be walked upon without giving way. Always examine the edges of the different pieces from which you are choosing, andiselect the one which seems to have the right thickness for the amount of wear you expect it to stand. The linoleum that ha* the design extending through the whole thlcknessf ,ls the most durable. You can see this h,v examining along tire cut edge. It is called ’‘inlaid linoleum” and is built up of blocks and pressed together. Nat­ urally the color then will last us long us the linoleum does. * “Printed” linoleum that has the de­ sign stenciled on the surface la a cheaper quality. There Is another type that comes without any design, nUd lit the most at­ tractive dull colors, plain dark browns, cool' grays, and so forth. These are usually in the heavier grades, and cost more than the standard weight lino­ leums. ' t Do not choose linoleum In -which there is a marked difference between llie pattern and the ground, and nvohl bright reds and greens. Modest ef­ fects are most attractive, nnd such materials only look “cheap” when they assert themselves. The laying of the linoleum is almost more Important than the difference In quality, and Unless measured and fitted carefully, la sine to “buckle” and sweli on the floor. Whenever possible, ft 1* best to have it laid by the firm from which it was purchased. Cara of Arm*, Tbe officer was giving a lecture on the cate of arms.
