By KATHLEEN NORRIS
SYNOPSIS•
Mary Kate 'O'llera is in 1pve with
Case Keating. 'Christopher S:eynes, a
friend '" her employer,'pr<poees that
she ply ;lie part of his'wife for one
,night in order, tie discourage a Rus-
sian countess who 4 on his trail. Mary
agrees; it means .enoughmoney to let
Martin, her'brother,.go. to Germany -to
study ,medicine, and Steynea 'is' abso-
lutely trustworthy. She ells no one
of ,what she is going to do.
CHAPTER XIII.-(Cont'd.)
There wasa silence. Then the girl
unexpectedly ,laughed.
"It's 'crazy, I guess," she suggested
mildly, ;
. "I, don't see it!" Christopher Steynes
eaid sfo tly; - .
-"Well, it all. depends. If 'anything
goes wrong, it's'erazy," she said, "And
if everything .goes right, it's only; a
9ekep,
"And there's More in that than
meets the eye!" the man'assurdd her.
"Want some .violets?" 'he asked .idly,'
as they walked out,
",Oh, no, thanks!"
"Don't you like'em?"
"No. I .mean'of co'irse 1 love them.
But my, young man's coming in after,
dinner,".she explained composedly.
"Of.couise. Well, then, Mary,' it's
good-bye •until 1 meet the five o'clock
train` at Burlingame tomorrow night."
She gave him her hand.
"Good -bre"
' • "This is my:bus," he' said, pausing
at the `curb; where a car was parked.
"It's a 'Smarm."
"And:!e that a good make?"
"Tulerab'ly."
"You hitply that it's a very good
make indeed;" Mary Kate said, undis-
•turbed, :"But' they all look alike to
me, except flivvern d can always telt
one of then'."
"Mostpeople can," Chris said polite-
ly' "I'can't.,otfer to drive you home,"
he regretted.
"I should hope nor:!" 'said Mary
Kate.
"Taxi?"
"Taxi! I have• only to walk over to
the Geary car, right across the street
here and it goes within a block of
home."
I have a husband's anxiety about
you, .naturally," Christ reminded her.
"I can imagine! Well, a, two 'days
be relieved forever," the girl
countered.
•Christ lifted :his hat, and she flashed
him a farewell smile. Then he got
into the beautiful car, all cream lea-
ther andred twin, and buzzed the
Jt•trter, his free thought :ul- And
Mary Kate, her own expression ser-
ious, crossed teeming Market Street,
looked vaguely at a protectingtraffic
cop, 'and fumbled in her black leather
bag for a nickel. •
She was presents jammed on :i
car, hanging on a strap, wedged in
between other wearied and swaying
persons. But she was conscious of
nothing but the confusion •,rd excite-
reent.in her thoughts.
The long block on Broderick Street
was col and twilighted. Grit and
rubbish had been blowing idly along
the street during the wild spring day,
but now the wind had stopped. There
was peaceful sunset light behind the
shabby houses toward the west; the
sun was gone, but a pinkish glow still
lingered in the high windows of down-
town department houses.
. To the little shabby houses tiled
office workers 'were returning; chil-
dren skirmished noisily along the
sidewalks, carrying bread. Pat O'Hara
sat on the little steps that descended
through a bulkhead to the street, be-
fore the house, and spun a tin buzzer
on a string.
"You're late, Sis," Pat said, in his
sweet, reproachful voice.
"Am I, darling? Oughtn't you to
have your heavy sweater on, Pat. I
was kept at the office."
"Mart foamed the office," Pat sant
puzzled.
"Oh—?" Her first slip, She had
to watch her step, now. "Well, it
wasn't really at the office. I had to
buy some—commercial stationery, and
things," she fumbled "and got my hair
washed—not my hair washed, either,
for I did that Sunday. But I was•
delayed...."
Pat had lost interes,. He accompan-
ied her to the kitchen, Mary Kate
conscious of nerves already shaken
muter the strain -of unfamiliar en -
'truth.
"Mother," she asked, cutting corn-
bread into squares with an almost
vertical knife,"which is worse—to do
a thing that.is wrong, but looks all
right, or. a thing that is,quite all
right, and looks wrong?"
"Anyone who'd ask you a question
like that wouldn't be responsible, and
the Lord would hold than guiltless,

spontled readily, not diveting' her a
tention for an ine'ant from the bus
-
rese of dishing up dinner.
"Well,' of coulee!" the girl agreed,
abashed. '
"No, but which is it -which is it,
Mary Kate?" little : Regina' asked,
assisting her, her anxious l'i'ttle fair
face'eaised to Mary Kate's adored'one.
"Don't , burn your hand, darling.
Why, of course it's doing the wrong,
no matter how safe it looks, that is
the sin'don't'you sem? : And doing the
right thing is always right, no matter
how bad it'looks!"
"But you oughtn't to give scandal,
ought you, Mary Kate?' Tess asked
conscientiously.
Her dark, face was flushed to gipsy
beauty as she stirred some creamy
compound in a sauce .pen. ' She ap-
pealed'to the infallible authority.
"It's wrong to .set woad example,
'even. if what you're .doing isn't what
it looks like, is :'t it, Mother?"
' "Don't let'that'eatch;on the button,"
was Mrs. O'Hara's.niysterious reply.
Tess recommenced' her arrested stir
ring.; briskly- "Where's Tom?"
"Tom was 'here after school, .and
he went out, : and he -said .he'd be
back!" someone supplied. They all
sat.' down, Mart suddenly 'appearing
in their midst, erom:,upstairs, looking
clean and neat, .and weary.
"Lecture tonight, . Mart?!'
"Yepe Anyone see my yellow foun-
tain pen?"
"I saw that sort of orange one,
Mart:- Tom had it" ,
"That's Tom's big one. I gave, et
to him myself.. A pian came, into the
office selling them for, sixty. cents—"
"Eat your potato,' Mary .Kate."
"Mother, yon want me to be .simply
gross!"
"Suppose you murdered a roan—I
mean suppose you had to,"- Regina,
;:ascinated by the ;opje of crone and
scandal,' began again, interestedly,
"Would that be e'ting a'ba1 example;
I mean if'you. h * to -e?"
"You'd never leeve to," Martin 'as-
sured her discourssgittgly.
"Oh, Mart, suenose he was killing
you?_"
"But that wouldn't 'be murder!
That'd be self-defence."
"hlo, but listen, Mart." This was
Mary Kate, deeply—indeed, although
no one suspected it, painfully inter-
ested. "Suppose' I -did something --
suppose you and I were brother and
sister, and we went down and took a
honse at Carmel—"
"You ire brother and sister," the
literal Tess said in surprise.
"No, but supposewe took 'a'house
at Cannel, and everyone thought we
were married—to other people, .I
mean, and that Mart had a wife, and
l had a husband—"
"Why couldn't we simply tell then.
we were sister and brother? Lots of
sisters and brothers—"
Mary Kate laughed, pondered a
minute.
CHAPTER XIV.
Tofu, who had entered with a rush
of cold air, thrown his coat and hat
in a corner, and wedged himself in
between Pat and his mother, now
seized a plate, helped himself raven-
ously to everything within reach, and
said authoritatively, as one who has
given the problem deep thought.
"Listen, suppose I'm working for a
ratan, and his brother is a drunk and
a bum, and all that, and my employer
tells nm to take all the money I can
find out of his brothers pockets every
day, and somebody sees mu doing it,
and thinks I'ni a thief—"
"Well, you wotil3 be, Because if it's
in his pockets, it's his money," Mart
interrupted warmly.
"I would not.be a thief!"
Their voices rose in furious debate.
Mrs. O'Hara poured Martin tea, look-
ed attentively about at the plates anti
cups. The kitchen was too hot now;
presently she murmured to little Pat
to go over and open the back window.
A thin sweet wedge of cold fresh air
came in.
"Now, here's an example," hiary
Kate said, when there was a lull. "I'm
secretly married to a man—nobody
knows it. Well, if I go to China with
him, that's.no sin, is it? But anyone
seeing us might think-"
"Why shouldn't you go to China
with hint?" Regina demanded, puz-
zled.. "Mother, why shouldn't a lady
go sofnewhere—?"
"I never heard of such nonsense!"
.Mrs, O'Hara, displeased with the turn
the conversation had taken, said im-
patiently. "Sin is sin, and right is
right, and we are all born knowin'
the one from the other."
"No, but honestly," Mart said. "It's
hard to think of a thing that is right,
and looks wrong. Things look pretty
much what they are."
Mary Kate stared at him, bright-
eyed and unconvinced, and he smiled
in his kindly big -brother fashion at
a pretty, eager little sister.
"Well, don't you think so, Molly?"
"I was just weneering."
"There's darned 'little," Mart said
thoughtfully, "that can't be explained.
"Don't you think you—don't you
think someone, might do something,
Mart, something that—well, no, it
Wouldn't' look wrong exactly, but it
would be a sort of risk—"
"Nothing wrong in it, itself?"
"Oh, no!".
"No. Por everyone who knew an'
thing about it at all would know it
was all right." •
"Well, 'then—" His shrug was
in-
finitely
heartening. Her sober er face
brightened:
Dinner, never a prolonged or fornial
occasion, was over now, and the chil-
dren hacl moved to the dining rooni
table for lessons. Mart took the chair
next to Mary Kate, and jerked' it
Close to her, and put an arm about
her, and she dropped her proud, bright
head to his shoulder.
"She's awful nice 112nm"Vlal't i
� said
evearily..
Mrs. O'Hara slid a casual handful
of piled dishes into the sink.
"Pick up your hat and coat, Tom,"
she said.
"Gee, i'in tired. I'm awful fond of
I you, Mary Kate," Mart said wearily
and sleepily.

Rain
I rather like the sound of rain
As steadily it falls
Upon the upturned, shining leaves,
Upon the paths and walls.
It plays a fairy kettledrum
upon a roof of tin;
While each drip in the water -butt
Sounds like a mandolin.
I rather like the smell of rain,
That earthen, woody scent,
The thirst of gardens being quenched
In pungent, deep content;
The warm aroma ot the moss
Beneath some gnarled old tree;
Or, 'walking on a sandy shore,
The tang of rain -swept sea.
I rather like to see the rain
Come sweeping o'er the moor;
Or wildly race the heaving waves
Prom skyline to the shore;
Or on the petal of a rose,
A bevelled crystal gem;
Or clinging to a spider's web
Upon a bracken stem.
I rather like to feel the main
Beat fiercely on my face,
As with a stinging, nicking whip
It hurries on my pace.
But though I rather like all these,
When all is said and done,
To tell the truth, I must confess
I mucic prefer the sun!

Chivalry, on the
Indian Frontier
An Adventure Over the
Afghan Bordeu Told by
British Official
The Koeat Road is 'shut. No. Euro-
peans are allowed beyond the 'barriers
of •the British camps, And the old
Frontier game at which there is none
so cunning as the Afridi and his neigh-
bouring tribesmen, is --.with intermit-
tent Tulle -much in the news with a
bigger, stalke'tor the winner than has
ever been offered before.
So it is easy, in reading brief obi•
dial communiques, to remember a
night, . little more ' thana year ago,
when I slept amid the frowning hills
over the Frontier, the wrong side of
the 'barbed wire.
There is 'tomething :uncanny about
passing Over that theoretical line that
divides India from Afghanistan, There
is something in the look of the pinch=
faced Bengalees, aflutter with foun-
tain pens, who Iet you go through.
'Amu le something thrilling in the
'last saluto of the British -Indian sen-
try. There is a "lost" feeling as yon
pass 'from the .orderly array of a Err
'fish camp, to the wilderness, and the
loneliness of the bleak land that no
betty claims.
Here in -these halls had been en.
acted. adventures which read like the
old storr books of danger, daring, and
often chivalry. In these villages
there ltad_ been• whispered•the names
of Englishmen who had impressed
their personality and their word, on
even the• hardiest of the mountain
chiefs, so that they could do no wrong.
And it was 'one such, now retired to
'a pleasant and honorable obscurity in
'South Isensington,,wlio told me a tale
of the Frontier which shows the
chivalry ot the wild lands. -
He 'was Political 'Officer for the
Khyber. His' war; the word which.cat'-
rted peace along the, road to,Kabul.
Ills was tate influence that protected
the Caravans and tee tribes which
moved with their armed protectors'
along one. 08 the oldest trading routes
in the world. And hie habits; his face,
his figure, and his skill with a revel -
ver were known to a nicety by every
'self-respecting thief, brigand, hold-up
merchant, and ransom expert in the
Khyber hills.
tI was but .a matter of routine when
the message came to his office about
the proposed murder and looting that
night. The time was given, The
place was exactly indicated. The ob-
ject of the raid was detailed and the
Political Officer thought that, on the
whole, it promised to be an ably-
thought•out, systematically executed
and amply -rewarded enterprise.
And also, he added, an entertaining
evening, though only in the course of
his routine;
Picked Men
Picked .men and personal arms were
arranged five miles away. An orderly
brought the Political Officer's two.
seater round to the race. A junior
European applied for an evening's
"fun." And just as night was failing
is its abbreviated imitation .of a West-
ern dusk, the "brains" of Britishdis-
cipline in the Khyber drove off to the
rendezvous.
The cal' was not going welt that
night. Headlights were switched on;
and two miles front the rendezvous
the Car entered a tiny ravine where a
mountain path crossed.
The Political Officer cursed blealtly
and staccato as he pulled at the hand
brake. Tho little car skidded and
stopped, engine stalled. And in the
light of the headlamps the man who
sat his horse in tate centre of the road
jerked his rifle sharp to his shoulder
and fired,
There was a cry front behind him,
and he laid his rifle across his knee.
The shot had gone wide, and at sound
of that voice the Political Officer
quietened the impulsive rising of his
junior and sat at ease at the wheel
of tete car.
The Procession
Then from the mountain road there
emerged a curious procession. It was
headed by the pian who had given
that order. He swaggered into the
roadway. He fronted the lights brave-
ly enough. He had Isis TWO slung.
I -3s attitude, you would say, indicated
that he cared neither for Political
Officers nor their juniors.
The car was one of those which, go-
ing, went on going. Did you still its
reverberating engine, however, it
needed a walk round to its imposing
bonnet to swing at a handle.
The armed procession crossed the.
road. There were more mounted men,
there were armed tribesmen, then a
rope, then the elderly, bent figure of a
Hindu, attached to the trope, then mote
rope; and in single file the half-dozen
remaining Members of one of the
boldest and most actively -operating
looting bands in the Frontier Hills.
The watching horsemen in the road
wheeled and joined his leader. They
waited with the calm of men who have
waited for years, and can wait for
another five minutes to see what an
unarmed Political Ofiioet', at the wheel
of an ancient car with a stalled en-
gine, will do in strange circumstances.
The Political Officer fnmbled in his
pocket. Slowly he drew :out a pipe;
then tobacco. Ile filled the bowl and
stutlt the pipo in his mouth; let the
match Save up to light his face as he.
applied it to the brown strands in the
bowl.
Tlien he opened the door. Paying
great attention to his pipe, whittle did
not seem to please 1111n, he walked to
tile front of the car. Hale a swing
the engine cotighecl and died.

Half a, swing . worn and' dirty
plugs gave hesitating spark to slug-
gish petrol. The : Political .:.Oftlder
walked back to the thee wheel, examined
hie pipe again ,and turned the little
car tound,in the narrow road'not very
skillfully, while the 'two silent watch-
ers welted.
It is perhaps to the•.credit 08 the
Indian Civil Service that the Political
Officer did not swear befote'he .had
traversed a mile. of the journey back
to camp. The raid lead been over be-
fore he started. The 'prisoners had
been 'taken, The loot had been hid-
den. The'victlrns had been perhaps
alhadydisposed ..cf by the peculiarly
artistic nneans known to that particu-
lar tribal leader. And ,another rich
•caravan had paid the price, in spite
'of the 'ceaseless vigil .of the British
in the. Khyber,
The Political Officer's language was
.startling, however, ;on ,the following
morning as.he 'set at his desk reading
the daily pile of personal- letters
which awaited him.
The junior, then in the room, left.
The orderly, methodically .slltting the
envelopes with an Ivory knife, inad-
vertently ;cut a 'headquarter communi-
clue in half. The table shook its para-
phernalia 'from the crash of his fist
on the table.
Yet' it seemed an ordinary enough
letter for a Political Officer to receive.
The envelope was • cheap and trans-
parent, ' The writing was careful 'and
neat—the hand 'of a village profes-
sional writer. There was but one
sheet inside. It 'read:
"Deal' Sahib,—
"It vias indeed fortunate that I re-
cognized your Honout"s motor -ear, It
was indeed,an act of Allah that I was
able to warn my men to spare your
life. It was your Honour's wisdom
that brought him unarmed along the
road. Would your Honour remember
in the future not to dr're ai.rng dan-
gerous roads at nigh without a
guard?
"Yours faithfully,"
(The signature was a thumb pi intl.
At Grips
"Is your wife at home?" asked Mrs.
Filson, of her neighbour's husband.
"No,' he replied; "she's out with a
bunch 'of prizefighters."
"Prizefighters?" echoed Mrs. Pilsen.
"Yes," returned the hueband sorrow-
fully. "She went to a whist -drive."

told theta noise from the cellar was a

lieve in burglars.

It was Paddy's . Srst trip in ;an; acre.
plane, and when he .reached the
ground again he turned a'very pale
face to the pilot, '
"Sure 'and begorrah, but I thank yet
