"Mr. and Mrs. Babcock of Chicago, business friends of George's, are to spend a couple of days with us. They are very musical. Would it be i too much for you to drop d Wednesday evening and help me entertain them?" "No, indeed! 1 shall be delighted to do so. Shall I bring my violin?" "Please do!" Ever since I first met Merton Gray, he had been so willing to do anything to give me pleasure, that it is no wonder I liked him. That he was considered rather a lion, and that hostesses vied with each. other to se- cure him styudinners or other social affairs, »f course did not make me less pleased that he never refused my invitations, It would net have been natural. They were to arrive in the morn- ing, and I proposed that I go to the station in the car and meet Mrs. Bab- cock "He may want to go directly to the office with you, and it may please her to have me meet her," I said. "It surely will,"" George replied. "She is just the kind to appreciate such an attention That she is so much older than you are is all the more reason for a little extra thoughtfulness." » en ---------- Again Helen Pleases Her Husband That was all George sald about my offer to go to the station, but. I knew his manner that I had pleased him by proposing it. And, as always, when I knew I had accomplished that by once seemingly impossible thing, 1 was happy.

A letter from a Scotchman of sixty- aight---that is his honest to goodness age, his military papers say he is forty-four. He has been out there ea almost four years, a and is hotly indig- nant because they have handed him his passport and told him to return for his discharge papers.

What a spirit! I laughed and cried at the same time when I read the letter.

So they let him go over again and he stayed there for eighteen more months as a sniper, taking an omin- ous toll of the enemy, sitting hour after hour behind a slight covering or up in a tree top on no man's land.

He is giving up reluctantly, but he is clearly thankful that America is in.

I carried some little things from my own boudoir to make it more homelike, and put g couple of late magazines beside the reading lamp. Before I went to the station the morning of their arrival, I would put fresh flowers in the vases, and then it would be somplete. I was very proud of' my beautiful home nowadays. At first [ had not cared so much for it, as it was asso- ciated in my mind with my efforts to be a social success; with my failure to please George; with my need for instruction, and my rebellion. I had often told Evelyn that I would ra- ther live in a little cottage and not be a society woman at all, than to have my lovely home and have to be thinking all the time whether 1 could live up to it. She would laugh and tell me to wait a while--that some day I would be proud of my home -- proud to be its mistress. She had been right. of my lovely home. quite so large nor so Mrs. Babcock's, but it was delight- fully complete in every particular, thanks to George.

So I had'no worry on any score save that of my own ability to prove entertaining; and to decide the menu, I was proud It was neither elaborate as A it SOME GERMAN PRAISE FOR GENERAL FOCH The Frankfurter Zeitung Says That His Scheme Was Cleverly Executed Amsterdam, Aug. 1.--"Foch can say he willed something greas, that he devised a simple and clear plan, that he made hig preparations ex- cellently, and that his scheme was cleverly executed." So declares the Frankfurter Zeitung. It qualifies its franknes: by saying that he underestimated the German strength, and asked his troops on the whole to perform the impossible. Sueh a qualification rather falls to the ground in the face of the fact of the continued German retreat, but it goes on to pay the enemy a still further tri- bute by saying that "never before has the strategy of the western powers been =o united and cool- headed as during the past few weeks," and it frankly admires the way im which Foch, while concern- ed with the German offensive, gath- ered "at least 52 divisions together for the attack, did everything ne- cessary to exercise and place his fighting troops, and then began his offensive at the essential points." The writer thinks Hindenburg will give up stil more ground in order to save men, and concludes: "Everybody feels that in these weeks we are fighting for the suc- cess of our whole campaign of at- tack." enim Tetanus in German Army.
