It Is rather difficult diffi-cult for the human mind to comprehend compre-hend such a theory, says Thrift Magazine. Maga-zine. Longfellow, tn "The Hyperion," asked the question: "What Is time?" and answered It in this manner: "The shadow on the dial, the running of the sand day and night, summer and winter, win-ter, months, years, centuries: these are but arhitrary and outward signs, the measure of time, not time Itself. Time Is the life of the soul." The theory that time "does not pass," or. as men say, "fly," ts not a new one. There Is In an ancient graveyard In New York a tombstone containing these lines; Time file., 'tis gatd. Nay gossip, & y not o, Time ta , we goe. Nathunlel Hawthorne, in the "Marble "Mar-ble Faun," wrote: "Time flies over us but leaves Its shadow behind."

"Put the thoroughbred to the test, and, whether he be man, horse, or hound, he'll respond." "Barnes," Malet began, when the subject was exhausted, "haven't you yet found out that Nlta Is In love with young McKlmber?" "Impertinent puppy," Barnes stormed.

"We are on our way to Florence, said Malet CHAPTER XIII Floyd Malet's movements for the next few days were rapid and success ful. He found himself tor tne nrsi time In the city of Bochester. The McKlmbers had a big place in its most fashionable residence section, a city block of it where most were contented with a hundred-foot frontage. Robin McKlmber on his way from the works to his home was passed swiftly by a man of middle size whose carriage seemed familiar. The stranger stran-ger did not observe the scrutiny. Robin felt he was not deceived; the bogus viscount had shorn off his mustache mus-tache and imperial He had now a brisker way of walking. Actually, Robin noted, the impostor whistled gaily. Floyd Malet felt a harsh grip on his arm. He was spun around to stare A French Manservant Admitted Him. Into the cold face of young McKlm- Der. "Well," said McKlmber, "how is your friend, the duchess of Green-Cheese?" Green-Cheese?" Much better," said Malet undis turbed. "She can now sit up and drink in the view." "D n it!" Robin exploded. "Don't shake hands with me." "I came to your fair cltv for n- oiner purpose. I want to see vonr father at once." "My father Isn't well," said Robin. 'He doesn't see strangers." "He will see me." said Floyd Malet airily, "because I bring him back his youth, his reputation, and his future " By this time they had come to the car which Robin had parked by the curb. If this is your automobile, let us lose no time." "Look here." said Robin, "you de-Uberately de-Uberately lied to me about Miss Browns address.

Malet took the midnight mid-night train back to New York feeling he had made a friend. Robin's chanewi attitude was amusing. He listened with the greatest deference to Maled remarks and thrust something tuts his hands as he boarded the train. "Thank you," Malet said, "b I don't deserve a tip." "It's a letter for her." Robin flashed a little. ' - On Thursday evening, which was lot ever afterward memorable In the lives of Peier Milman's guests, Paul Raton walked down Fifth avenue wondering for what purpose he had been asked to confer with the recluse. Over tie telephone Mllman had said It was i matter of urgent Import and had to do with his political ambitions. Ordi narily Raxon would have suspected danger, but not where Peter Mllmai was concerned. The MUmans had been a great fam ily Intermarried with those who wielded Immense financial power. Their prestige was undoubted In New York., Perhaps Peter Mllman, brooding brood-ing over his misfortunes, had some scheme to utilize the Influence of his kin. The message was given In such a way as to enlist Raxon' lively interest It was Impossible to think of a visit to this austere mansion u In any sense perilous. A French manservant admitted Slav The financier was shown into a splendid splen-did drawing room. The brilliant group which Malet had done many years before be-fore took Raxon's eye Immediately, although he was ignorant of the sculp tor's name. He was examining the group closely when Peter Mllman en tered. Raxon looked at him Intent? He saw a slim man of iate middle age wearing the correct garb for the evening. eve-ning.
