"Me." Foster experienced a sense of firri- tation, but he mastered the feeling that he was being "ticked off." "I mean, have you the authority to come here? Are you from the sta- tion?" "Sure." Then Foster noticed that the con- stable had a sergeant's stripes on his arm. The man was chewing gum as he stood with his eyes on the floor after a first swift scrutiny with his single eye. It was the negro butler who broke the silence. "Sub," he sald, with something like awe in his tone, "dis heah is One- Eye. Detective One-eye, suh." "I'm glad to make your acquaint- ance, Detective QOne-eye." The mulatto constable did not even answer. He looked up at the ceiling, then again at the- floor, then walked straight upstairs slowly and, as if in profound thought. He went straight to the study door and opened It. With Foster at his heels he went inside. He closed the door at Foster's back and stood still while the doctor turned up the gas. Foster had heard of this strange criminal chaser of Jamaica, for no person ever came often to.the island without hearing about him.

Not long ago I was at a supper party at the: Embassy Club at which the Prince was my vis-a-vis. Our hostess was the lovely Duchess of Sutherland. A few days before Eng: land had rejoiced at the marriage of the Duke of Kent and Princess Mar- ina. After the entree the Prince ask- ed me to dance with him and to- gether we took. the floor to the straing of the latest fox trot. I may say here that in my opinion the Prince is not the most skillful of the sons of the King of England as a dancer--and I have danced with all England's - Princes! As we danced round the crowded floor naturally the conversation turned to the re- cent Royal wellding at 'which the] Rs A A nt bo pa Tea Re CS ry ART aT Ta SH Tee rN Cn a EER ar x, To = Si a Hm .

Someone was knocking at the door, and the butler hastened to open it, Foster, who stepped into the hall, saw a colored man slide in past the but- ler and stalk slowly forward. The newcomer was dressed {n the uniform of the local police, but his hat was not smartly on his head as is usual with constables, nor wag his tunic carefully buttoned. He was a curious person, and not the least cur- jous thing about him was the fact that he had only one eye. He looked a pitiful enough representative of the Jaw, but his face, which was as ex- pressionless as a piece of wood, con- tained that single eye that glimmered with a smouldering fire.

For a few moments the Prince-danced on in silence as if he had not heard my little pleasant. ry. Then smiling into my eyes he replied: "God forbid--I admire your Bex too much to commit the sin of marrying." This intrigued me furth- er still and I--pleading the innate curfosity of my sex demanded to know exactly what my Royal part. ner meant "I mean that I would never of my own free will condemn a girl to a slavery which being my wife would be.

"IDYLLIC RETICENCE"" Now, although the Prince spoke more or less seriously I am not will- ing to accept what he said as being in any way his last word on marriage I have talked so often to his sister --the Princess Royal--who has told me that the real reason why her brother has not gladdened his par- ent's heart by selecting a girl as his Princess is that he has--on the one hand an almost idyllic reticence where women are concerned -- and on the other he feels perfectly cer- tain that the type of virl he would like to marry would be of a class which it would be quite impossible for him to wed without seriously jeopardizing the dignity of the Mon- archy., I do not subscribe to this latter idea. : i ' I am perfectly sure 'that if the Prince of Wales walked along the Thames Embankment and saw a girl absolutely destitute and married her the whole Empire would take her to its heart quite as enthusiastically as it she was a Royal Princess--in fact I am certain that the British people would rather have the Prince select a commoner as his bride than the holder of an old and illustrious name, WHEN.

"The world of which you are the Leirs is one of bitter strife ard 1ur- moil," the chancellor told the stu- dents. "We--your elders--have dealt unfairly with you. From our fathers we inherited a world of growing wealth. ~ We carried on the task of widening its bounds. We spread ploughed lands to the edge of the desert and to the line where good soil ends In the rocky wilderness of . ilt railways from sea to sea. We linked the conti- nents with ships, We destroyed the barrier of space to human speech, We split matter into its final frag- ments--even to the point where mat- ter ceases to be matter and seems to be force.

"We risked all this in the hazard of war and in a mad race for profit and -pleasure.

Have you con: sulted this Graphologist on your problems?) Should a girl make a real sacri- fice for a friend, when in her heart she feels that she should follow her own course, irrespective: of the friend. This letfer is a little un- usual, and I am giving part, of it as this week's problem: : "Dear Mr, St, Clair: My girl friend and I are both interested in the same man. She has been telling me for many months that she is in love with him and he reciprocates: A few weeks ago I met him for the first time at the home of a mutual friend, and he instantly became in- terested in me, . Since then he has been meeting me quite often and now affects a love for me, When I told him about my girl friend, he said that he had never been inter- ested in-her to the. extent of love, and that she must have been' mak- ing up a romance out of very slend- er threads Now my girl friend is cross with me fox letting this man take me out and says that & real friend would not double-cross her as she says I am doing. Will you please look at the three writings I am sending you, and give me your hon- est opinion. Is the man deceiving Mme or is it really true that my girl friend was romancing hen she told friend was romancing when she told tween him and herself?' In the remainder of this letter the - girl points out that her girl friend has been very good to her in many ways, and that she feels that she owes her something. This is a problem that differs somewhat from the usual problems that are sent to me, but handwriting and knowledge of psychology will solve the problem in this case as in most others, - --To- take the -handwritings, 1 find that the man is straightforward, not unduly affectionate--that is, he is not the type to fall in love with any girl who comes across his orbit, but he is a decent and a clean-cut type of fellow. The girl who writes to me is affectionate, warmhearted, fond of being 'on the go', with a good sense of loyalty and dignity. The third member of. this triangle seems inclined to build air-castles, she will romanticise, build up. dreams within her mind, and even come to belicve that they are true. after a while, : : The girl who writes to me has ap- parently forgotten the hero of this story, I think! She is willing to stand down for her friend, but doesn't consider whether the man is quite as willing!

Reserved i oh: und with the girl who writes to me, and not with the other girl, Her stories of his love for her are probably the fruits of her romancing and desire to have him love her, rather than an accepted fact, So I say to my correspondent that, no matter how much she may feel indebted to her girl friend for past assistance, she cannot, in all sincerity to herself as well as to the man, give him up. . That would not help her girl friend at all, if the man doesn't love her, and I think he does- n't. : It is all very well sometimes to be a martyr, but this is not one of these cases, and I have no hesitation in advising my correspondent to go ahead and encourage the man if she really loves him--and she says she does with all her heart And I wish you all the good luck you deserve.
