LostWhipl And How It Resulted In a Serious Complication In colonial days In Virginia there was a society that was unique. - A number of planters With their fam ilies were assembled at a winter' fes tival In the manor bouse of Le Roy Chalmers.' . There were driving, horse back riding, shooting aud pther sea sonable sports, affording a merry time to all. r Beatrice Chalmers was the acknowledged belle of the party, not only on account of her comeliness, but certain dash there was about her, an Impulsiveness which was constantly bursting through conventional re straint The young people of the party had done more or less pairing off, but Miss Chalmers, being a hostess, had re-1 trained from accepting more attention from any 'one of the men guests than another. " " . '-'.' . -( : -s ; : : r? - Nevertbeless there were two who, it was generally conceded," were nearer to her than the otnerstbe one, Ert- mond Dargan, a Creole from Louisiana; tbe other, Louis rite Maurice, a young Virginia attorney.' Dargan hud re cently come to Virginia, had made the acquaintance of Colonel Chalmers, who with tbe hospitality of tbe times and the locality bad invited him to his bouse. - Fits Maurice had known Bea trice Chalmers from childhood and was In love with her; but, being only an attorney, , which was' then considered greaUy inferior to being a planter, and since be bad no fortune, be had kept his passion to himself. At any rate,'-he had not spoken it One day when the party were re turning, from a bunt Miss Chalmers missed her riding whip. In the han dle was a valuable diamond. Her ex pressive face at once showed bow keenly she felt tbe loss. They had been riding through a thickly wooded country, and it was quite possible that tbe whip might not be found. ( . 'What will you give the flnderr asked on of the young men. - At that moment Dargan, who had fallen behind the others, rode np and. having heard the question and know ing the Impulsive nature of the girl, aid: , . 'Yourself r "lea, . myself said Beatrice, "and all I possess.". ., ..j ; .' Every young man of tbe party turn ed his horse's bead to tbe direction from which tbey had come and spur red away to look for the lost whip. A short distance from tbe manor house tbey met Fits Maurice and Carey Em mons, wbo were Just coming In. FIU Maurice succeeded in stopping one of tbe riders long enough to discover what the were returning for, but In stead of Joining them rode on to the bouse with Miss Emmons. Then be saw the ladles of the party standing on tbe porch. . At seeing him Miss Chal mers cried out: ,,..., 'Aren't yon going to look for my rid ing whlpf? - , : . . You would not have me be so dis courteous as to leave Miss Emmons?" 'Certainly not But now that Miss Emmons la here, I see nothing to pre vent your returning to search with tbe rest." ' 'Nothing but that tbe whip has doubtless been already found. " A look something akin to reproach flashed in Bentrlce'H eyes at what sbe considered this ungallant treatment. Hair an Hour later tbe- men were seen tiding buck headed by Dargan, wbo held aloft the recovered whip. Miss Chalmers, who saw It all through a window, knit her brow aud cast a deprecating glince at Fits Maurice, who was standing near. In a few mo menta tbe hunters threw themselves from their horses, which were taken away by uegro slaves, and all followed Dargan into the house. Advancing to ward Miss Chalmers, be 'dropped' on one knee and banded her the whip. "You have found my whip," sbe said. "It remains with you to say if you wish tbe offered reward." "I certainly do wish it and claim It as my right" - Every one present except the man addressed, wbo waa on his knees with bead bowed, saw by tbe expression on tbe lady's face that she certainly did, not wish It. and every one saw half reproachful, half appealing glance she threw at Fits Maurice before replying "N Chalmers has aver gone back on his,, or ber word. My friends, 1 bar to announce my engagement to Mr. Dargan." There was clapping of bands from soma wbo considered the matter to be mere banter and frowns from others who believed the girt would be foolish enough to sacrifice herself to a false ens of honor. Dargan took her band, kissed It rose, and tbe party dls petted. . The aama evening Fits Maurice, And Ibg Dargan walking alone under some magnolia trees near tbe-: bouse, ap proached blm and salr . ."Dargan, I waa surprised that In claiming your reward today you failed to say that you could only accept it In case tbe lady's heart went with It' Dargan turned vpon Fits Maurice like fury. "That is a matter between Miss Chalmers and myself. I brook no In terference, la my affairs from any man." Despite tbe fact it hat hot southern blood ran In Fits Maurice's veins be answered coolly: i 1 y ' , .. "I would not think) of Interfering In this affair were you Acting (honorably." "Honorably I That means that you accuse me of acting dishonorably. You are doubtless prepared to back your , Insult I ahall kill you art I would a dog."- '" ' "Iiam prepared to back'wbat I nay botlrias you mean and In another way. I wan riding behind Miss Chalmers today when ahe dropped her' whip and saw you dismount, pick It tm andV put It in thetpocket of your hunting eroat." DarganX started, and a changed, look came overhls face. For a moment he hesitated, then decided on his course. "Yon musttadmlt," he said. '?that no man can maVeisuch a charge (as that and not expMtVto enforce it' on tbe field of honori Before bedtime yon shall hear fro mi me. Good night" ' Raising his hat, vthe speaker turw-d and walked away. ' ,' ' During tbe evening Fits Mauriceftook Miss Emmons away from the others and said to her: i "What do you pnopose to do 'about making known the -fact that we saw Dargan pick np ..Mia Chalmers' riding whip?" "Nothing. . I neverUngerfere inoth er people's affairs." "Very well; then sm must remain ignorant that she is inj no way bound to bestow upon him tbii reward offer ed." - 1 ' "She won't anywajy unless she wishes to do so. If jyou think she should know tbe truth, Why don't)you teU herr "..V. "Because certain eruditions have arisen that should I do so I would render myself liable to jthe contcmjit of my associates. Nevertheless tomur. row I may tell her. I wish you. to promise me that If I do not you will do so." "Explain." "Not till tomorrow." "Very well. If yon won't tell ber tomorrow I promise yonu will." Tbe next morning Beatrice Chalmers awoke before daylight and lay think ing about the peculiar position In which sbe bad been placed by the loss of her riding whip. She was pledged to marry Dargan, whom she did not fancy, and considered that she had re ceived a slight fnom Fits Maurice, whom she did love. What would be the next development? It was soon to become 'apparent She beard footsteps on the stairs, thongb they were barely audible. Had ber sense of bearing not been very acute she would not have heard them. She listened and after awhile a door sofo- ly closed directly below her room, Getting out of bed, sbe looked through her window and saw in. tbe gray of the morning Fits Maurice and one of. the men guests, whocarrieda box nnVr his arm, crossing tbe open space ly rng be tween the manor house and t'ae rond. That was quite enough in thase days, when the code duello was In. vogue, to tell her what bad happened. She dress ed, herself, opened Aer door. and wei.t out Into the ball. A door opposite wk opened, and Miss Emmons, in night. dress, called to her.' She went into Miss Emmons' room and learned thr.t sbe bad seen Dargan learve tbe house on the opposite aide. Miss Emmons thought It high time that sbe tske an Interest In "other people's business' and told ber bos ties sill sbe knew about what was about tot transpire. "Get on your clothes, quick," ex claimed Beatrice. In a "flutter, "whll I go to tbe stable andA bring a pony cartr Within ten minutes Beatrice hurried np to tbe door as fast as ber pony' short legs could carry ber. Miss Em mons got in, and the two drove off at a gallop In tbe direction tbe latter bad seen Dargan go? There had been duel before In tbe family, and Beatrlc surmised that this one would occur at the same place. When they reached It the two principals stood waiting while tbe seconds werennessurlng the ground. "Gentlemen," said Miss Chalmers a sbe reined In near them, "there is no occasion for this fight" I am in a po: sltion to answer for tbe dishonorable act of ens of tbe principals and the honorable conduct of the other." Dargan, wbo saw that be bad lost bis case, turned pale. "Mr. Dargan, not only did Mr. Fit! Maurice see yon pick np my whip soon after I had lost it but Ma Emmons saw you do tbe aame thing." "And," Interrupted - Dargan, with contemptuous glance at Fits Maurice, "he Induced Miss Kmmons to tell you la order to stop"- "No such tbingr crlei Miss Cual mers angrily. ."He pledged ber to tell me after this affair should be all over. Isn't that so, Carey V "It Is." ' "We both beard yon go out," contin- ed Beatrice, "and followed you to pre vent spilling of blood and to exonerate Mr. Fits Maurice. Mr. Dargan, I am astonished at your course. I need hot add that I feel neither inclination nor compulsion to bold to my part of a sjiiy contract.- pargan turned and. walked away from tbe field. It had not occurred to him that Miss Emmons bad alto seen blm pick up tbe whip, and. confident that be could kill Fits Maurice, he e pected to cover np his dishonor wltb the tatter's death. He did not go to tbe manor bouse, but sent a negro for bis beMiglnirs. He was never agai heard of In Virginia, but visitors from there to New Orleans learned thnt bf was an adventurer and a duelist ol considerable distinction. Miss Chalmers married Mr. Flti Maurice, who during the Revolution became on ef the principal flgnrei who relted the encroachments ' of King George Til. and brought about American Independence. OCCUPIES A FIELD OF EC OWN. Light as a medium of - publicity therefore occupies a very prominent position. It does not compete with other forms of advertising but occu pies a field of its own at a time when there Is nothing to detract from it when people are walking or riding, when they do not read the papers. The ' most striking evidence, per haps, of its value as a means for pub licity, is the enormous Increase of its use by merchants of all kinds, in multitudinous forms, limited appar ently only by the capacity of imagi nation in which light may be utilized in the great field of aggressive pub licity. . ;.; ..... A- brilliant and artistically Ilium- inated store presents a cheerful and inviting appearance which merchants have come to realize Is a very Impor tant element to success In , business. aa It unconsciously extends a welcome and establishes confidence. Human Instinct prompts people to go Into well-lighted stores, to walk on well- lighted streets and to visit well-light ed cities.. The most popular form of light for publicity Is the show window.- Be sides, a well-lighted show window Is much more attractive by night than by day, as there is not so much to de tract from It, the eye being naturally attracted by an Illuminated object at night. There are many classes of goods that appear more striking and attractive under artificial light than by daylight. Besides, Illuminated show windows add to the brilliancy and at tractiveness of the street. The Illuminated sign burns the name, business and location into me public mind. It is indeed the sign of the times; a symbol which represents the business idea so completely that lu, ndvent within the comparatively brief period of 10 years has changed the appearance of cities. 2t FRUIT AND LAYER CAKES And every other kind of cake for Christmas festivities, Phone 622 the Big Steam San itary Bakery.
