"I see by the papers they've invented a new dance called the grizzly bear. I be lieve there's another named the yip kyoodle. I hope you've got 'em down pat to show the young folk tonight, Bristow." The major got up with some irrita tioU. "Southali," he said, "sonetimes I'm tempted to think your remarks verge upon the personal. You don't have to watch me dane if you don't choose to." "No, thank God," muttered the doc tor. "I prefer to retnember you when you still preserved a trace of dignity -twenty odd years ago.' "If dignity-" the major's blood was rising now,--"coisistn in your eternal tasteless bickerings, I Want 110110 of it. What on earth do you do it for? You had some friends oncee." Frieds!" silapped the other, "the fewer I have the better!" The major clapped on his straw hat angrily, strode to the door, and opened it. But on the threshold he stopped, and presently shut it, turned back slowly and resumed his chair. The doctor was relighting his cigar, but an odd furtive look had slipped to his face, and the hand that struck the match was unsteady. For a time both sat smoking, at first in silence, then talking in a do suItorly way oil indifferent topics. Fi nally the major rose and tossed his cigar into the emipty grate. "I'll be off low," he sail. "I must be oil the flell belore the ot hers." As he went down the steps a car ringe. drawn hv ' pair of dancing grays, plunged pa st.

The noon sun of tournament day shone brilliantly over' the village, drowsy no longer, for many vehicles were hitched at the curb, or moved leisurely along the leafy street: big, canvas-topped couitry wagons drawn by shaggy-hoofed horses and aet with chairs that bumped and jostled their holiday loads from outlying tobacco plantation and stud-farm; sober, black covered buggies, long narrow, spring less buckboards, frivolous side-bar run aboits an1i anititue shlays resurrected friom tl'e primeval depths of cob webbed stables. relies of tarnished areodIi ' r l and fadod fortule. t midny vehiies resolved them -' - -,o nh i -booths--hampers -v b t ail the seats, dis of picnic edlbles ard was an array of grass-spread table-cloths, and an air of plenty reigned. Within Mrs. Merryweather Mason's brown house hospitality sat enthroned and the ge-erous dining-room was held by a regiment of feminine out-of town acquaintances. The yard, an hour later, was an ac tive encampment of rocking-chairs, and t (lit of conversation floated out over the pink oleanders whose tubs had achieved a fresh coat of bright green paint for the occasion. Mrs. Poly Gifford-a guest of the day here shone resplendent. "The young folks are counting mightily on the dance tonight," ob served Mrs. Livy Stowe of Seven Oaks. "Even the luckner girls have got new ball dresses." "Improvident, I call it." naid Mrs. Gifford. "They can't afford such things, with Park Hill mortgaged up to the roof the way it is." Mrs. Mason's soft apologetic alto Al "Friends!" Snapped the Other, "The Fewer I Have the Betterl" interposed. "They're sweet girls, and we're never young but once. I think It was so fine of Mr. ValIant to offer to give the ball. I hear he's motored to Charlottesville three or four times for fixings, though I under Btandl he's poor enough since he gave up his money as ho did. What a prIncely act that was!" "Y-e-e-es," agreed Mrs. Giffor-d, "but a little--what shall I call it?-pre cipitous! If I were married to a man like that I should always be in terror of his adopting an orphan asylum o.r turning Republican or something equally impossible." The doctor -shut his oiil'o door with a vicious slam and from the vantage of the wire wIndow-screen looked sour ly across the beds of marIgold and nasturtium. "I reckon if Mrs. Poly Clifford shut her mouth more thani ten minutes hand-running," he said malevolently, "the telp of her head'd fly from here to Charlotteavillo." The major, ensconcedi with a cigar in the easy chair behind him, flour ished his palm-leaf fan and smote an errant fly. "Speaking of Damory Court," he saidl in his big voice. "The dance idea was a happy thought of young Va liant's. I'll be surp~rised if he doesn't do it to the queen's taste." The doctor nodded. "Tils place can't teach him much about such fol derolings, I reckon. lie's led more cotillons than I've got hairs on my head." "I'd hardly limit it to that," said the major, chortling at the easy thrust. "And after all, even folderolings have their use." "Who said they hadn't? If people choose to make whirling dervishes of themselves, they at least can reflect that it's better for their lives than cane-bottom chairs. Though that's about all you can say in favor of the modern ball." "Pehaw!" said the major.
