Hall for a month's stay in Peiping. China, with which he became so fascinated that nothing would do but to lease a snugly furnished, servanted and properly equipped cottage on Rue de French legation quarter, shortest street in the ancient capital, a thoroughfare so abbreviated that only three houses could find space to park there. Mystery of the Two Halls, "To facilitate the delivery of my mail," said Mr. Hall. "I had a small name plate made for the front gate. Imagine my surprise to discover the next day that at the other end of Rue de Lagrene, my own residence being No. 1. another William C. Hall had his name up on house No. 3. At all events, that same afternoon in the Peiping club met a WiUiam C. Hall, captain of the marine corps, a resident of China for many years. It was as much a shock to him when he saw my name as it was to me when I saw his. Startling, wasn t it? And hard to match." "1 wouldn't say that," said Mrs. Hall, occupying the next steamer chair. "Recently, while dining witn a mixed company, a gentleman whom I had never met before told a story that had to do with the making of a mint Julep in Louis ville. Ky. As the narrative unfolded and, recognizing it as having happened to my father, I took oc casion to say so. "Rather stiffly, and in a doubting mood, the teller advised me that he had been assured by the lady that it had happened to her father, Crittendon Collings. In further support, and with evident high esteem for minute particulars, he advised me that the source of his Information was a Mrs. Hollings-wort- h Siter. Survivor of the Titanic. "Of course, you know," continued Mrs. Hall, "that there was nothing I could do other than to inform the gentleman that I happen to be a sister to Mrs. Siter." A married couple, whose courtship began in Japan, went back in their story to the sinking of the Titanic, a disaster of such proportions that the news was circulated into the uttermost corners of the earth. A young woman, spending a few days at Miyanoshita, learned through an English newspaper on file there that a Mrs. Stone, an old friend, was among the rescued, a piece of good news, calling for a letter of congratulation. At the hotel desk, while buying postage stamps, she remarked to her mother that Mrs. Stone's American address had slipped her mind. "If, by any coincidence," said a woman standing near, "it Is Mrs. George W. Stone of Cincinnati, to whom you refer, here is her address on a letter I have just written and am about to post" Henry George's Daughters. As a result of that remarkably fortuitous circumstance, a friendship was formed which brought the travelers together, and the son of the woman who supplied the address became the husband of the girl who had forgotten it The foregoing three episodes, interesting indeed would seem to have been ample out of one passenger list but the fourth Into which I found myself drawn was even more remarkable in that it carried a double dose of fortuity. Believe it or not; here it is: An Austin P. Sutter of Los Angeles, associated with the moving picture Industry, told of a Tokio acquaintance who, taken to the Tokio Imperial hospital suffering from heart trouble, was restored by the use of a preparation invented in the United States. The conversation on this subject, interrupted by something more entertaining, ended there. Two or three days later, off Honolulu, the film man and I went Into a huddle on the screen industry and mutual friends connected with it In the course of our prattle Sutter spoke of Cecil DeMille. Did I know him? Yes, but I knew his brother, Billy DeMille, belter; saw a good deal of him 25 years ago in New York, where he married one of the daughters of Henry George, author of "Progress and Poverty." Right there something clicked. "Another daughter of the great philosopher," I went on, "married 'a Japanese physician, who became world famous as the discoverer of a formula to stimulate heart action, since adopted universally. "What was his name?" asked Sutter, suddenly aroused. "Takamine. Johichi Takamine. The preparation is known as Adren- To clean glass in oven doors rub over with vinegar then wash with soap and water.
