There is hardly any- thing one does that people do not know about. Just when one thinks a small bit of information is restrict- ed to the few people it concerns, that information is making a general round, becoming common property. This fact was brought home to me the morning after the party when the dear old lady. who had taken upon herself the duty of being my social sponsor, called for me. We were to go shopping together. Arthur and I had, of course, dis- cussed the party and the success of it pleased us, but we had not re- ferred to the girl, I do not mean by this that the memory of the even- ing, her voice and her laughter and her unusual conduct in the dining room, had been swept out of my mind. It was there indelibly and 1 was wracked with it, but I would say nothing to Arthur. I had no censure for him because I felt him to be innocent of any intent, except to be hospitable, When the old lady entered she looked at me strangely. "You look very happy this morn- ing," she said. "I have reason to be. The sun is not only in the sky, but also in my heart." Again the queer look came over her face and she seemed to peer at me. I could not imagine what had By Fr THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, MONDAY, ces Walter. MALICE ena come over her. She was usually very busy and anything but quiet. This morning she seemed to be mak- ing an effort to draw me out about something, { to the party last night. I hear you, that is, everyone, had a good time and that it was very successful." "It is good to hear you say heard that," I said. "Usually the success of such parties does not spread to all the streets, but is limit- you and hostess." "The next time you give one I shall break my rule of going to beds early and come over as a sort of chaperon. I understand one was » needed." "My dear, I had not imagined that Everyone seemed to behave What was done to shock anyone?" "1 don't believe anyone was really shocked, but some of them were a! little startled. I believe some are till a bit startled." F-resented this. I could not under stand what she was referring to. The girl's conduct with Arthur had been blotted out by Arthur for he had been very gear and sweet that morn- ! ing and there was no room in my mind for anything but him, not understand what she was trying lo startle me with. "Miss Brooks," 'I said sternly, "please tell me what you mean." She came over to me and put her hand on my shoulder. We were | standing near the window in my liv- | ing room. "My dear Mrs. Pembroke," she be- | gan very gravely, "1 am very old, I do not mean that I afm aged, but "I am sorry I was unable fo come | ed to the consciousness of the host | | time comes."

Per- | hapa it is adversity that has moulded bim. Before August 19 there was only and a bullock | { one case in which an Indian mule | driver received a decoration. of the corps were awarded the In dian Order of Merit, | the drabi's reputation was high. It was drabi who pursued his | escaping mule almost into the Ger- | | man lines at Loos, crying out that the beast had broken his heel rope | and that his Sahib would be angry. | [It was a drabi who sat through the whole of the bombardment at Neuve Chapeile when all the rest of his column had taken cover. He wan- dered about all night unable to find his destination. His cart was "written off," for the bombardier in charge, who had obeyed the order: "All into your dug-outs,' said that nothing could live through that fire. In the morning the drabi tarned up at Brigade Headquarters with hk | ammunition, explaining that he had lost the way. "Rasta bul gia, {hazur." When asked what the fire was like he said that the wind from the shells was like the monsoons in the hills at Dharmsala. And only the other day Ali Hus- sein, drabi, must need report him self sick on January 23, tor found a bullet in bis shoulder. "Where were you wounded?" was asked. "In the. battle, Sahib." "But that was on the 21st did you not report yourself before?" "Sahib," he said, fearing reproof. "I had no time, The wounded were too many." He had made the journey to the trenches in his cart ten or a dozen times through the darkness and cold and mud and rain, If beasts were decorated, the mule would be covered with ribbons. He also knows not defeat. In the ge- cond line the brunt of the work has fallen on the ponic and mules of the Jaipur and Bharatpur Imperial Service Transport Corps. It is commonly reported { force~with what truth I ca that the Jaipur pony sport | train won the battle of Shaiba.

Like the yak, he is a providentially ascetic beast.

Neither the British officer nor the Indian sepoy, as a rule, un- | derstand the camel of a strange land. | Too often the camel's uncouth bulk, his uncanny asceti- | cism, leaves a false impression of and adds to his yoke, Weight is piled on, and his eries as- cend to deaf ears.
