CHAPTER XXVIII.—Continued.
I Marjorle was overwhelmed, but she
;felt It becoming In her to bo a trifle
|<soy. So she pouted: "liut you won't
iwant me for a bride now. I'm such
fright."
j He took the bait, hook and all: "1
inever saw you looking so adorable."
; "Honestly? Oh, but it will be glori-
ous to be Rlra. First Lieutenant Mal-
lory."
"Glorious!"
j "I must telegraph home—and sign
;my new name. Won't mamma be
jpieased ?"
"Won't she?" said Mallory, with
jjust a trace ol dubiety.
Then Marjorle grew serious with a
jaew idea: "I wonder If mamnia and
<papa have missed me yet?"
i Mallory laughed: "Alter three days'
(disappearance, 1 shouldn't be sur-
prised."
"Perhaps they are worrying about
line."
| "1 shouldn't be surprised."
I -The poor dears! I'd better write
|<bem a telegram at once."
I "An excellent Idea."
i She ran to tho dosk, found blank
jforins and then paused with knitted
iirow: "It will be very hard to say all
[I've got to say in ten words."
"Hang the expense," Mallory sniffed
(magnificently, "I'm paying your bills
!oow."
Hut Marjorle tried to look very
itnatronly: "Send a night letter In the
(day time! No, Indeed, we must be-
jgln to economize."
Mallory was touched by this new
Jrevelation of her future housewltely
(thrift. He hugged her hard and re-
minded her that she could send a day-
letter by wire.
"An excellent Idea," she said. "Now,
(don't bother me. You go on and read
jyour paper, read about Mattie. I'll
(never be Jealous of her—him—of any-
jlKKly—again."
"You shall never have cause for
(jealousy, my own."
Rut fate was not finished with the
initiation of the unfortunate pair, and
lalroady new trouble was strolling in
their direction.
CHAPTER XXIX.
Jealousy Comes Aboard.
' There was an air of domestic peace
lln the Observation room, where Mal-
lory and Marjorle had been left to
themselves for some time. But the
peace was like tho ominous hush that,
precedes a tempest.
Mallory wag so happy with every-
thing coming his way, that he was
,oven making up %vlth Snoozlouma,
(Stroking the tatted coat with one hand
and holding up his newspaper with
the other. He did not know all that
was coining his way. The blissrui si-
lence was broken first by Marjorla:
j "How do you (Dell Utah?—with a
®r
"Utah begins with tfou," he aald—
and rather^ liked his wit, listened for
some recognition, and rose to get It,
isut she waved him away.
"Don't bother nie, honey. Can't you
see I'm busy?"
Ho kissed her hair and sauntered
back, dividing his attention between
Snoozleums and the ten-inning game.
And now there was a small commo-
tion in the smoking room. Through
the glass along the corridor the men
caught Bight or the girl who had got
on at Green Klver. Ashton saw her
first ancLshe saw him.
"There she goea," Ashton hissed to
the others, "look quick I There's the
ne/ arine." ' ,
My word! She's a little bit of all
right. Isn't she?"
Even Dr..Temple stared at her with
approval: "Dear little thing, Isn't
she?"
The girl, very consciously uncon-
scious of the admiration, moved de-
murely along, with eyes downcast, but
at such an angle that she could take
in the sensation she was creating;
she went along picking up stares as If
they were bouquets.
tier demeanor was a remarkable
compromise between outrageous flir-
tation ond perfect respectability. Hut
she was looking back so intently that
when she moved into the observation
room she walked right Into the news-
paper Mallory was holding out before
him.
Hoth said: "I beg your pardon."
When Mallory lowered the paper,
both stared till their eyes almost
popped Her amazement was one of
immediate rapture. He looked as If
ho would have been much obliged for
a volcanic ciater to sink into.
"Harry!" she gasped, and let fall
hei* handbag
"Kitty!" he gasped, and let fall his
newspaper. Hoth bent, he handed
her the newspaper and tossed the
handbag Into a chair; saw his mis-
take, withdrew the newspaper and
•tared through the glassy eyes
complete beiplcfanesa. "It looks
Ilka a bracelet."
"Don't tell me you don't remember
tbia!— the little bangle bracelet you
gave me."
"D-dld I give you a baygled brang-
let?"
"Of course you did. And the in-
acrtptlon. Don't you remember it?"
She held her wrist in front or his
aching eyea and be perused as lr it
were hla own epitaph, what she read
aloud for him. '"From Harry to Kitty,
the Only Girl I Ever Loved."
"Good night!" he sighed to himself,
and began to mop his brow with
Snoozleums.
"You put It on my arm," said Kath-
leen, with a moonlight sigh, "and I've
aiwaya worn it."
"Alwaya?"
"Aiwaya! no matter hum I was
engaged to."
The •eaperate wretch, who had not
dared even to glance in Marjorie s di-
rection. somehow thought he saw a
straw of self-defense. "You were en-
gaged to three or lour others when 1
was at West Point."
Kathleen fenced hack at this:
"Well, I've no doubt you have had a
dozen affairs since."
"Oh, no! My heart has only known
one real love." He threw this ovi r
her head at Marjorle, but Kathleen
seized It, to his greater contusion:
"Oh, Harry, how sweet of you to say
It. It makes me teel positively taint,"
and she swooned his way, but he
shoved a chair forward and let her
collapse Into that. Thinking and hop-
ing that she was unconscious, he
made ready to escape, but she caught
him by the coat, and moaned: "Where
am I?" and be growled back:
"In the Observation Car!"
Kathleen's life and enthusiasm re-
turned without delay: "Fancy meet-
ing you again! I could Just scream."
"So could I."
"You must come up In our car and
see mamma."
"Is Ma-mamma with you?" Mal-
lory stammered, on the verge of Im-
becility.
"Oh, yes. Indeed, we're going
around the world."
"Don't let me detain you."
"Papa is going round the world
also."
"Is papa on this train, too?"
At last something seemed to em-
barrass her a trifle: ""'No, papa went
on ahead. Mamma hopes to overtake
him. But' papa Is a very good trav
eler."
Then she changed the subject. "Do
come and meet mamma. It would
cheer ber up so. She is so fond ol
you. Only this morning stie was say-
ing, 'Of all the boys you were ever
engaged to, Kathleen, the one I like
most of ail was Edgar—I mean Clar-
ence—er—Harry Mallory.''
"Awfully kind of her.1'
\
HE SHOVED KITTY INTO A SEAT.
proffered her Snoozleums. Marjorle
stopped writing, pen poised In air, as
it she had suddenly been petrified.
The newcomer was the first to
speak. She fairly gushed: "Harry
Mallory—of all people."
"Kitty! Kathleen! Miss Lewellyn!"
"You dear fellow, it's so loug since
I saw you last."
"So long."
"Harry!"
"What's the matter now?"
"This tie, this greon tie, isn't this
the one I knitted you?"
"I am sure 1 don't know, l bor-
rowed It from the conductor."
"Oh. you tickle boy. But 8«e what
I have. Wbat'a thla?"
"You must come and see her—she's
some stouter now!"
"Oh. Is she? Well, that's good."
Mallory wns too angry to be sane,
and too helpless to take advantage of
blH anger. He wondered bow ho could
ever have enred for this molasses
and mucilngo girl He remembered
now that ttie had always had these
same cloying ways. She had always
pawed him and, like everybody but
the pnwers, ho hated pawing
It would have been bad enough at
any time to have Kathleen hanging
on his coat, bri-alnratcnlng bis tie,
leaning close, smiling up In his eyes,
losing Win his balance, recapturing
him every time he edged away. But
with Marjorle as the jrlm wlfntee 11
was maddening.
He loathed and abominated Kam
leen Llewellyn, and If she had ouiy
been a man, he could chcertuily have
beaten her to a pulp and chucked Der
out of the window. Hut because she
was a helpless little baggage be -bad
to- be as polite as be could while she
sat and tore hla plans to pieces, em-
bittered Marjorlo's heart against him,
and either ended all hopes of their
marriage, or furnished an everlasting
rancor to be recallod in every quar
rel to their dying day. Oh, etiquette,
what Injustices we endured lu thy
name!
So there he sat, sweating his soul's
blood, and able only to spar for time
and wonder when the gong would
ring. And now she was off on a new
tack:
"And wbere are you bound__for,
Harry, dear?"
"Tho Philippines," he said, and for
the lirst time there was something
beautiful In their remoteness.
"Perhaps we shall cross the Pacltlc
on the same boat."
The first sincere smile he had ex-
perienced came to him: "1 go on an
army transport, fortu—unfortunately.''
"Oh, 1 just love soldiers. Couldn't
mamma and I go on the transport?
Mamma is very fond or Boldlera, too."
"I'm afraid It couldn't be arranged."
"Too bad, but perhaps we can stop
off and pay you a visit. I Just love
army posts. So does mamma."
"Oh, do!"
"What will be your address?"
"Just the Philippines—Just the Phil-
ippines."
"Hut aren't there quite a tew of
them?"
"Only about two thousand."
"Which one will you be on?"
"I'll bo on the third from the left,"
said Mallory, who neither knew nor
cared what he was saying Marjorlq
had endured all that sho could stand.
She rose in a tightly leashed fury.
"I'm afraid I'm In the way."
Kathleen turned in surprise. She
had not noticed that anyone was near.
Mallory went out or hiB head com-
pletely. "Oh, don't go—for heaven s
sake don't go," be appealed to Mar-
jorle.
"A friend of yours?" said Kathleen,
bristling.
"No, not a friend," in a chaotic tan-
gle, "Mrs. — I.ilss—Miss—Er—er—
er—"
Kathleen smiled: "Delighted ta
meet you. Miss Ererer."
"The pleasure is all mine," Mar-
jorle said, with an acid smile.
"Have you known Harry long?"
said Kathleen. Jealously, "or are you
just acquaintances on the train?"
"We're Just acquaintances on the
train!"
"I used to know Harry very well—
very well lnded.".
"So I should Judge. You won't
mind ir I leave you to talk over old
times together?"
"How very sweet of you."
"Oh, don't mention it."
"Hut, Marjorle," Mallory cried, as
sho turned away. Kathleen started
at the ardor or his tone, and gasped:
"Marjorle! Then be—you—"
"Not at all—not in the least," said
Marjorle. «
At this crisis the room was sudden-
ly inundated with people. Mr . Whlt-
comb. Mrs Wellington, Mrs. Temple
and Mrs. Fosdick, ail trying to look
like bridesmaids, danced la,, shout-
ing:
"Here they come! Make way tor
the bride and groom!"

Boxing, Ancient and Modern.
Although boxing and pugilism, oc-
cupying much attention at the present
time, were popular in classic Greece,
they seem to havo died out In the
middle ages, and It is not until tbe
end of the seventeenth century that
we find references to boxing as a
regular English sport. Boxing, as dis- j
tingulshed from pugilism, may be said
to date from 1866, when the Amateur j
Athletic club was formed, and tlia !

used them In his practice bouts. But
you will remember that the boxing
glove, as described by Virgil, was a
terrible Instrument of offense.

cannot tell you how terrible my face
looked—all I can say is, it was dread-
ful, and I suffered beyond description.

now. Just four month's ago a friend
persuaded tne to give Resinol a trial.
I have used three cakes of Resinol
Soap and less than a jar of Resinol

free from any eruption, and my skin
Is as clear and clean as any child's.
