Bertrand Deveaux was a victim of the recent wave of unemployment. One @ay he sauntered inte the of- fice of Maximus Sylvan im search of a job, While there he met Eugenia, Sylvan’s beautiful secretary, Bertrand speaks with surprising impertinence and Eugenia is very much impressed but not favorably. She is not accus- tomed to young men who behold her beauty, doing other than paying homage te her attractiveness. Three days later, Bertrand appeared at the office again. This time he serves process on Sylvan, who, for some time, had suceessfully eluded the law. Bugenia is angry because she thinks Bertrand deliberately deceived her in order to serve process on her employer. She calls him a “treacherous sneak.” The next night Eugenia goes to the library to attend a reception. Not long after she sat down, the seat next to hers was also taken, — Last Installment — dew ITTING beside her was Sea Bertrand Deveaux. SMe) ‘Never mind,” said he, “I’m not serving papers tonight.” She turned away without a word. “I say,” he continued in a whis- per, “why did you blaze out at me that way yesterday?” She ignored him. “The deuce!’ he went on. “T had to get some kind of work, didn’t I? Your office didn’t give me any, so I had to keep looking. Iran into a lawyer whom I had known at college and told him what a fix I was in.” She gave no sign of listen- ing. “My friend, the lawyer, said I was just the man he needed, as I was a stranger in New York. He’d been try- ing to serve papers, he said, on Maximus Sylvan, a ,slip- pery citizen who kne¥ all the process servers in Harlem and always managed to see them before they saw him.” Eugenia kept her face turned away. “He said it would be worth five dollars if I could serve Sylvan. Two years ago I could spend five dollars for a shirt, but now, when I’ve been eating ten-cent meals for a week, it looks like a for- tune. So I took the papers, and as I had no interest in shielding Maximus Sylvan, I served him.” This time Eugenia gave him a scorching look. “Your mistake,” Bertrand |saw me and f Deveaux went on, “was that/here to set yo! you thought I'd been al, 2 Was com how.

Yet she was touched. "He's just a big boy after all," she mused, "a big boy with a bruised heart and nobody to heal it." They talked at intervals all through the meeting. When it was over the audience went down into the basement to dance. There Eugenia was in her element. A wave of young men surged toward her, and for the next half-hour she was busy dancing and warding off flattery. Once as she flitted by a pillar she saw Bertrand Deveaux, a lonely figure, leaning against it. She turned back. "Don't you dance, Mr. Deyeaux?" "Yes." "Then why don't you?" "I'm a total stranger here, I've been in New York only two weeks, you know. You're the only girl I've met." "And you haven't really met me." "Yes, I have. The great god Morpheus introduced us. I caught you asleep one day, and then you caught me asleep. Since then I've told you my history and been bawled out by you. I'll dance with you now." In a moment they were dancing together, in spite of the frowns of the young man whom Eugenia had promised the dance. When the music stopped she asked Deveaux to come and meet some more girls. "I will, since you ask me, but I'm not keen on it. My matrimonial——" "Oh, forget your matrimonial adventures and have a good time." "Very well. I'll meet 'em and dance with 'em, but I won't go home with anybody but you." Indeed!" she said, archly delighted. "Why?" "Because with you I feel safe from matrimony." "Why with me more than others?" she asked resentfully. "Well, you know all about me. You know I'm a poor prospect.

D. A Little Dancing. "Enough!" she interrupted, fearing he would speak of money. Meeting Brown Beauties She introduced him to a half-dozen of Harlem's brown tulips, and watched him. She soon saw that he was no stranger to society. He knew how to bow and how to dance. Presently, judging from the sparkle in the eyes of the tulips he danced with, she suspected that he knew how to flirt. When all the dances were over and the crowd was oozing out through the door, Eugenia found Deveaux at her side. "Take me home," he begged. "That's what men will be saying a hundred years from now, if the women keep on as they've started. All right, I'm ready to take you home." Eugenia tried to think of a biting retort, but none occurred to her. In a few minutes they were strolling up 135th street toward Seventh avenue. "Suppose we lunch somewhere," he suggested. "I served three more summonses today and I'm flush." "And tomorrow you may serve none. Better save your money, you'll need it all in New York." He looked at her, wide-eyed. "Did I hear you rightly? Or are you one of those one-in-a-century girls? A Harlem girl refusing to let a man spend money!" Always Knocking Harlem "You people from other places are always knocking Harlem and always running to Harlem. Why should we Harlem girls differ from others? You'll find just as many sensible, sympathetic girls in Harlem as you found in—in—" "Chicago. That's where I lived, and where they did me up. Henceforth, I'm a New Yorker. And I suppose you're right about Harlem. In fact, the finest girl I ever met is from Harlem." "Where did you meet her?" "What is this?" she demanded, "more kidding?" "Do I look it?" No, he didn't look it, but she suddenly remembered something. "You forget, young man, that I have no money." "Lord, so I did. Please keep me reminded of that important point, I'm likely to forget it when with you." Eugenia was angry with her own heart, which accelerated its beat at Deveaux's words.

The Par Internation A As we are just moving in to this column today the folks will have to take pot lucu. This is all the more so as we intend to be a real pepper-pot. But wait, we'd better explain what is a pepper-pot. Pepper-pot is a favorite dish south of the Rio Grande. That is, if one can call it a dish, for it is composed of a variety of tasty what-nots. During the week mother throws all the odds and ends of meat—beef, pork, chicken, mutton, rabbit, game—into a three-legged pot that sits in the ashes near the wood fire. Then on Saturday she puts in the vegetables—bits of yam, breadfruit, cooe, ochroe, and a variety of greens, not forgetting a liberal supply of fresh, wild bird-pepper—and sets the pot on the fire In an hour or so there arises a delicious odor that can be smelt a mile off—an odor in which that of pepper predominates. The family then gathers around the pot. Each dips in his spoon just as his African ancestor did centuries ago, and whatever he brings up, down it goes. If there is any left, back it goes with the pot into the ashes to serve as a basis for next Saturday's dinner. And so you may be eating some of last year's pepper-pot, who knows? A pepper-pot may have ancestry, and then again it may not. Besides, the Paris Pepper-pot is going to run true to form. The first duty of a good columnist is to have others do his work for him while he draws pay for it. So we extend a hearty invitation to all those who have no other outlet for their bright and clever thoughts to send them to us—bits of witty verse, anecdotes, and anything of striking human interest. And we do not intend to let them work for nothing. Oh, no. We promise them the finest of all re- Viennese Society Dentist Perfects Queer Dentifrice that Makes Teeth 4 Shades Whiter In 4 Days --- GIENNA's ultra society dentist has perfected a strange new kind of tooth paste, called Senreco, that whitens and beautifies teeth almost like magic—4 shades whiter in 4 days or it costs you nothing.

Here, He Tells About the Movies and the Future of His People. One is distinctly surprised when a man of eighty- nine years develops into a radical who does not follow beaten paths, and a physical culturist who has formed for himself a group of rules that he stoutly maintains will enable him to live at least one hundred fifty years. Such is Harry Gray. . So far, he has made a splendid start in his accom- plishments. His face is not marred by a single wrinkle, his teeth are in a perfect state of preservation, his steps are as sprightly as those of men many years younger, His philosophy is as strange as are his habits of liying. = I arrived at his suite of rooms in the Somerville otel. “I am preparing my dinner,” he informed me, re never eat in a restaurant or cafe.” I watched, fascinated as he scraped and sieved car- rots, peeled and diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce and cabbage.

"Thank the Lord for that. Some day I'll call you Genie. You are a genie to me, you know." "How?" "Don't you remember, in the Arabian Nights tales, how Aladdin rubbed the lamp, the genie appeared, and Aladdin was in luck? Well, you always bring me luck. The first day I saw you I was almost starving. Then I made five dollars. Yesterday I saw you again and today I made six dollars. I'm with you tonight, and I bet I'll have more luck tomorrow. I think I'll keep on dropping in at Sylvan's office—when he's out, of course. Isn't it funny how some women bring disaster and others bring happiness?" They parted with smiles and Eugenia skipped up the steps. When she got in the house she ran up the stairs two at a time. Somehow she felt galvanized, she wanted to leap and dance. She had no idea of the trial that was awaiting her the next day. Sylvan's New Idea Maximus Sylvan had got a new idea into his head. He had always realized, of course, that he had a very pretty stenographer, and from the first he had meant to make the most of that pleasant fact.

Ha, ha! The time was ripe long ago, and me, old slow-poke, asleep at the switch!"

One of the Foremost Saints of the Catholic Church "Assembling his legion, he told them the sad truth and then made it clear that so far as he was concerned, he did not intend to go a step farther." How many of the hundreds of thousands of Negro Catholics know that one of the foremost saints of their Church is a Negro? Picture in Noted Museum On the walls of the Old Pinakothek, Munich, one of the most noted of Europe's museums, hangs a famous picture—famous not only because it is the work of Matthias Grunewald, but also because of its subject. The principal figure of this picture is that of a very black man with hair that in a hair-straightening age will be described as "very bad"; with lips that writers of the Thomas Dixon kind delight in calling "blubberbones high, in short, the best that can be said of him is that measured by Caucasian standards he is ugly. He is just such a tall as Caucasianised Negroes we shrink from wishing to be. But this is the extraordinary thing about that figure. It is clad in jeweled armor, a jeweled sword hangs by its side; around its neck is a collar studded with gems; on its head is a wreath of the most cunning workmanship in gold and gems, illuminated by a halo, while on its face is a look of loftiest majesty. This picture once decorated the front of the altar of the great Cathedral of Halle, Germany. Why was it placed in that important position? Because that Negro, in all his blackness, was one of the foremost of the Christian martyrs; he is the celestial saint of that part of Germany, as well as parts of France, Switzerland, and Italy. He is the renowned St. Maurice. St. Maurice of Agaunaum was one of the generals of the Roman Empire, which was then under the joint rulership of the Emperors Diocletian and Maximian Herculius. Of his accomplishments, very little is known save one. In the obscurity of long centuries even his real name is clouded with doubt. His surname lives, however. Because of his blackness he was known as Mauritius, Maurice in French, Moorish in English. Even as late as Shakespeare's day black people were called Moors—"Othello the Moor." The term Negro did not come into use until 1442 when the first Negro slaves were brought to Portugal and the Portuguese word 'Negro' was used to describe their color. But the little that is known of St. Maurice rings through the ages. Mauritius (St. Maurice), who was commanding his legion in the Roman province of Mauretania, later Morocco, was called to Rome by his emperor at a critical time: The Christian slaves in Gaul were in revolt.

Is Celestial Saint Called by Emperor ```markdown ``` the swords of gladiators; the ripping asunder by wild horses and trees, the Christians had been growing in power. From their hiding places in the Catacombs they were expanding until they threatened the throne of the Caesars itself, like a tiny seed, which, lodging in the crevice of a rock, grows until it splits the rock assunder. Maximian and Diocletian had been forced to make peace with the tribes on the outskirts of their vast empire and to call in as many of their soldiers as possible to deal with the Christians at home. Must Kill Christians Among those called to Rome was St. Maurice, as has been said, and the emperor sent him off to Gaul to deal with the revolt. When he got as far as Agaunaum, a wild and desolate region in the Alps, however, he learned something that almost overwhelmed him. The enemies he was going to attack were Christians like himself! In that case his duty was clear, and he did not hesitate. Assembling his legion he told the sad truth, and then made it clear that so far as he was concerned he did not intend to go a step further. With a cheer, the soldiers hailed his decision. Disobevs Orders St. Maurice in touching language reminded them of the awful fate that awaited one and all, but they did not flinch. On this he sent a message to the emperor, informing him of his decision. The message reached Maximian at Octodorum, where he was resting after the ardors of a long campaign. Towering in anger, he assembled an army and marched to Agaunaum, where the African legion was calmly waiting. Arriving there the emperor ordered St. Maurice and his men to sacrifice to the pagan gods at once. They refused to a man. Addressing the emperor St. Maurice said: Speaks to Emperor "Sire, we are soldiers but at the ALUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION gaunaum, th the Roman Emperor Dio One of the Foremost Sa , he told them the sad truth and the not intend to go a same time we are servitors of Christ, a fact that we, proudly confess. To you we owe military service; to Him, the homage of a pure and innocent life. From you we receive our pay; from Him, we hold the benefit of life. "That is why, sire, we cannot obey you without denying God, the Creator of all things, our Master as well as yours, whether you acknowledge it or not. Do not reduce us to the sad night of offending Him and you'll find us always ready to follow your orders. Otherwise know that we will sooner obey Him than you. "We offer you our arms against any other enemy you wish to strike, but we hold it a crime to shed the blood of fellow Christians." Decimation On hearing this, the emperor, furious with rage, ordered the usual punishment; decimation; that is, every tenth man should be killed. St. Maurice's men were now ordered to number from the right, and every tenth man was made to step forward. Once more the emperor called on these men, six hundred in number, to obey him, promising them honor and preferment, but they firmly declared that their duty to Christ came first. On this he gave the order for massacre and his soldiers, falling on them, cut them down. Confident that the others had been taught a lesson, the emperor DO YOU LACK REAL ENERGY?

It was an age when men and women for more than two centuries had been willingly suffering martyrdom. Again every tenth man was made to step forward, and again each fell under the sword of the emperor's men. Sacrifices Life For a third time the emperor ordered the survivors to obey, and for the third time they refused, inspired by their beloved commander. "We have seen our companions fall under the sword," replied St. Maurice, "we have been spattered with their blood. We do not grieve for them, however, but envy them the privilege of dying for the One who died on the cross for us. Do what you will. No terror or torture is capable of frightening us. We are ready to die. We boldly confess that we are Christians, and that we cannot attack fellow-Christians." Finding them inflexible the emperor ordered annihilation of the remainder, nearly all of whom threw down their arms content to suffer martyrdom. A handful of them escaped and fled into Germany and Italy. Remaining among the dead was the heroic St. Maurice. This incident, occurring in an age when the spirit of Christ, not the spirit of color, dominated the Church, gave great impetus to the Christian cause. Church Becomes Firm Africa, this incident demonstrated to Europe, knew how to die en masse for Christ. It showed that the Church in Africa was as firm as it was in Rome. The people at home had been hearing of African martyrs; how courageously they had been giving up their lives in the arenas of their native lands. Now they had had an exhibition of it at their own doors. The fact is that ever since the eunuch of the Candace, or Queen of Ethiopia, had been converted by the Apostle Philip, as told in the Acts of the Apostles, Africa had taken enthusiastically to Christianity. And even before that it was a man born in Africa, Simon of Cyrene, who had helped Christ with his cross.

For if the wife always brought something when she came to her husband it would insure sreater permanence to the union. 1 was just another way of giving the couple something to start on. This is particularly neces- sary in old countries where Spee tunity to make money ’s limited and lucky breaks are few. We sneer at the dowry in America because— until recently—almost any young man with energy could get ahead and hope for great wealth. Now, how- ever, America is getting “sewed up” too.

Something bright grazed her hair and crashed down on the madman’s forehead. Sylvan lost his hold on the girl and reeled. The bright thing crashed on his head again and he slumped to the floor. It was a cane, the heavy silver- headed cane that Maximus Sylvan always carried to impress his cus- tomers. It was in the hands of Bertrand Deveaux. Eugenia took one look at Deveaux and fell in his arms, sobbing hys- terically. “You're all right, Genie,” he reas- sured her, “all right.

All three of them turned. Sylvan gasped, went pale and clung to his desk for support. The speaker was a square-shoul- dered man with a gray mustache and a derby, and behind him were two others who looked even more formidable, The man who had spoken took from his oceets a pair of objects that looked like bracelets but didn't act like them. “Put out your hands, Jim Glint,” he said, sternly. “I—I'm not Jim Glint.

He goes to bed early because he has to punch the clock early, just like you. But Paris’ reputation is the mak- ing of Paris. Give it a better name and the hotel-keepers, the tourist agencies, the rich jewelers, the modistes and dress-makers would certainly set up a howl.

It is time, too, to begin training him and to add a small spoon and proper bowl to his possessions along with the mug or cup which he learned to drink water from when he was four or five months old. In a short while, he will have learned to find his small mouth carefully without spilling very much. Even when the child is not so successful, the mother must not be cross but wait patiently for skill to come, and keep hands off. In questions of even more personal hygiene, the baby can be trained toward self-help and self-respect, as early as three months of age. A baby to be proud of, is not only bouncing and rosy, but alert, quick and willing to do as much as he can to keep himself clean and well behaved. The habits we have talked about above seem to be mostly for the physical comfort of the child. But, we now realize that the happiness and contentment of the child who is not kept back or fretted by an anxious mother, shows both in his health at the time but also in years after by the cheerful frame of mind which he has toward all things in life.
