Railroads, If to eopi ete success-
fully with the airplane in paeoenger
transportation of the gear future,
must plan at once for the operation
of trains at a greatly increased speed,
Sir Henry Thornton declared, recent-
ly in addressing the 'meeting of the.
American ..A.soociatiou of Passenger
Traffic Otlreers.
Sir Henry held thet railroads must
give immediate attention to making
transcontineinal travel more eom-
fortable; or see that business .slip
from their hands.
"The airplane is but an infant
now," he said, "but a lusty one, and
growing rapidly. For myself, I wel-
come the competition. T have enough
faith in railroad transpor;ati°n to
feel that the. latter .eau meet any
competition: that it is offered.
"If the railroads, however, are to
retain the traffic that is legitimately
within their jurisdiction, the increas-
ing of train speed is imperative.
"In the matter of competition with
the airplane, the railroad has a big
advantage in the centrally located
and readily accessible terminals, both
passenger and freight. The ma, .r'i y
of airports, particularly those in the
larger centres of population, are so
situated, for the greater hart, that
anywhere from thir-y minutes to an
hour is required to reach: them.
"Railroads, also, to meet steam-
ship competition, must offer the same
conveniences of travel that the ships
plying between the sante points have,
to offer. The most comfortable et
sleeping accommodations, a variety
et baths, excellent cuisine—three
most' become the rule on our de luxe
trains.
"1 am quite confident tha the rail-
road executives of North America,
realizing the act,is imperati r wdl'
arise to the occasion, dust as they
have in 'the past met o her occasions
of comparative importance, and sue
eessfuily so."

An innovation that may halve far-
reaching effects has been seen reecht

Country. Some years ago Miss Olga
Nethersole, honorary organizer of the
People's League of Health, obtained
the permission ' of the Prison Com -
miss -toners for lectures on health to
be given to convicts.
Some of the most eminent medical
men have volunteered their' services,
and "tlie scheme is proving a great
success. Lectures have been given
by the King's 4eritist, and by such
well-known dectors as Sir ; John Col -

nothing of it until the last day, when
her eager enthusiasm would send her
a -flutter to'her dressing room.
Urtanalyzed,it was simplicity itself,
this giving a farewell party to Marcia.
Under analysis, it was a different
matter. 'I'he boys at the ranch would
be invited, and of course most of
them would come. Bud Lee woe ld

if he should hesitate.
Bud Lee had always been so self -

longed for the opportunity to place
him in an atmosphere where a little.
of his calrrt self-possession might be
•snatched from hits. If she could em-
barrass him; if she could see the red
rise under his tanned skin, she would
be giving Mr. Lee a lesson good for
his .soul.
"I've got powerful little use for an
affair like that," said. Lee coolly, when
she told him. "Thank you, Miss San-
ford, but I don't think I'll come,"
Judith shrugged her shoulders'as
though it did not in the least matter
to her.
"I'm giving it for Marcia," she said.
"Do you think it would be quite nice
to her to stay away? I am afraid that
she will be hurt."
Not Judith's words, but the look in
her eyes; changed Lee's intentions.
"If it's for Miss Langworthy," he
said quietly, "I'll come." '
The day came and'Bud Lee began.

It was a box of odds and ends.

gloves, no end of the varied articles
which might have gone hastily into
such a receptacle as this from the

"Like' Hampton;" he mused, look-
ing at the things in his hands, "I won-
der what it'll feel like to get back in-
to these! I'm a fool." He laughed
shortly and set_ to work to improvise
a flat -iron to take.the worst.wrinkles
out of the cloth. "Once a fool, al-

from it."
itt was settled. He was going to
Marcia's party. He insisted on:call-
ing it in his mind, "Marcia's Party.
And he was wondering, as he shaved,
how Judith was: going.. to look.
As laid Lee came through the lilacs
int() the courtyard, he heard the tin-
kle of a distant piano and the trem-
olo of a violin, so faint•as hardly to
be distinguished above the plash and
gurgle of the fountains. The court,
bathed in soft light,' seemed a corner
of fairy -land, the music vanishing el-

mer, serene with the peace of the

already dancing within.
He stood a 't ioirrent looking in at
s
the outer edge of the flood of light
which gushed through the wide doors.
Behind him Japanese lanterns hang-
ing
ang
in r from a vine -covered trellis; b
be-
fore him flowers, bright chandeliers,
girls' dresses like fluttering, many -
colored, diaphanous butterfly wings.
He had been saying to himself: "1
must hurry if I want, to dance with
`rrin
str
Marcia." And something g
restlessly within him shoved asdie the
thought of Marcia and put in its stead
the old'wonder; "What sort of a Ju-
dith would he see tonight?"
He found it difficult to form any,
picture of her here, among, these gay,
inconsequent merrymakers. Judith

He took her hand and told her with.
his eyes how pretty she was. The
delicate tint in Marcia's! cheeks deep-
ened and warmed, her' eyes grew even:
brighter.
"Flatterer!" she chided him. "Are
we to talk of the moth and the star

The knot of men about her melted'
away. Lee stood. looking down into
her upturned eyes, measuring her
gentle beauty. 1 -le had thought of her

plainly hesitated, flashed a quick look
from Lee to the others about them,
then, whispered hurriedly:
"It's terrible of me;'but--"
And she slipped her hand. into his
arm, cast another searching glance
over her shoulder for <a partner who
had been too.tardy in finding her,
and yielded to the t�ernptation to have
this first dance with "the most ter-
ribly fascinating man there!" Lee
slipped his arm about her, felt'her
sway with' him, and lightly they
caught the beat of the dance and lost
themselves in it. And still, again and
again turning away from Marcia, he
sought Judith.
The dance over, their talk was in-
terrupted by an excited and rather
overdignified youth with a hurt look
in his young worshipping eyes, who
stiffly reminded Miss Langworthy
that she had' cut his dance.. She was
so contrite and helpless about it that.
the `youth's heart was touched; she
blamed herself for; her terribly stupid
way of always .getting things tangled
up, gave:him the promise of the next
dance, which she had already given
to someone else, disposed of him
with charming skill, and sighed as
she turned again to Lee.
"I haven't paid any respects to our.
hostess," he said quietly.' "Where. is
.Miss Sanford?"
"She sent her excuses," Marcia told
3iim. "Aren't we in a draft, Mr. Le?"
He moved with her away from the
soft.' current of air, a distinct disap-
pointment moving him to the verge
of sudden anger, What business had
