TO-l>AY'S SHORT STORY.] Dell. By HELEN MATHERS. (ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.) The girl thrust out a little naked foot, beautiful in form and colour, spanned by a tail-coloured strap, and laughed. The doctors are for ever preaching the open-air cure," she said, "urging us all about more air and light, and less clothing, yet the moment we women leave off our ha to and stockings, you men grumbler" Do you ever re;id your Bible?" said the man "You'll find in it finer rules for manners and conduct than in any book on etiquette ever written; and th-ere's a remark about a fair woman without decorum being like a jewel of gold in a pig's snout that you will do well to consider." "Oh! you mean that rubbish about our go- ing with uncovered heads to church," she said, lightly; "as if the parson oughtn't to be delignted to see us there at all! Besides, that test in the Corinthians applied to Orientals—not us. Those poor women wore a heavy veil, concealing even their features!" "Bare-headed, bare-armed, bare-footed," I said the man, "what is there to distinguish you gentlewoman nowadays from a pack of factory girls out for a spree? Heavens! If when one meets a group of you- on the sands and men's arms aren't round your waists, one feels that they ought to oo!" The girl laughed again. She was beautiful an a warm, slumbrous way, with a skin like ivory, and rich dark hair and eyes; but now she shot a quick glance at the man's face as he looked thoughfnlly out to sea. "Whose fault is it," he said—"the women who give too much, or the men who ask so little? We only demand modc-ty. decency; we don't want to share the woman we love with the whole world. There should te charms, there should be graces, jealously hidden from the world, and kept only for home consumption. In the free-and-easy, go- as-you-please manners of women towards men, of men towards women, is to be found the real reason of the failure of chivalry on the one hand, of true womanliness on the other." "Oh!" oried Lenore, with lazy scorn; "we don't faint at a mouse, and die of a migraine as our grandmothers did, if you mean that!" "But' did they?" said the man. "There must have been good stuff in those girls. physically and mentally, to make the splendid mothers they did. With our own parents went the last of the old school. Motherhood nowadays is practically a lost art. The man who wrote the line "ro suckle fools and chronicl-e. small beer' was a fool himself, and a vicious fcol at that!" "Now you are indecent!" cri-Ed the girl; yet she was not angry. He knew that she would not resent anything that he might say. His nostrils contracted disgustfully, a,s hp moved a little further from her. It had all gone so pleasantly from first to last—this untrammelled companionship of man and girl—winked at by a blind and com- plaisant world that had itself set a lax standard of morals and manners. Yet the man knew well enough that it was all wrong that. there had been no true courtship—the courtship that should be the dim, cool, frag- rant alley leading to the sacrament of mar- riage in the temple (for marriage is a sacra- ment to all true women), as it would have been to Dell, from whom Lenore had stolen him; and now he was to slip by a side wicket, as it were, into marriage, as men and girls nowadays drifted, without respect, without illusion. Lenore drew nearer, and rubbed her soft cheek against his coat-sleeve. Yes, that was how she had detached him from Dell, by giving so -much to keep him away (and Deil had given so little), and now he had come to see that modesty was the first and chief est good in a woman, modesty and a love of home and little children and beauty was of very little account when it made itself cheap. Dell's winsome, homely face seemed to him now the sweetest thing in life,as representing the sweetest things life had to give. in love, g"od repute, and honour, at that moment. He sat quite rigid-his nerves crisping in Tevolt under Lenore's unwelcome caress— knowing that he had come to the turning of the ways, that to marry this girl meant the wrecking of his future life, and that if he had not the courage to break with her now he would inevitably break with her after marriage. And as she sat watching his stern, lean face, his silence, his stillness, frightened her. i This was more than mere hufflness. Suddenly she felt danger in the air, and sat up straight. I know who it is," she said, angrily, "it's Dell. He shook hie head, "I have not seen her for over a year," he said. It was for exactly a year that his intimacy with Lenore Lepeil had lasted. Dove-eyed, demure, gloved," (she would die of shame to be seen even putting on her gloves in the street!) "and a little mother to ahost of squalling brats—apparently she is your ideal of what a woman should be!" "listen, Lenore," he said. "We have had a good time, you and 1. and now we are going to part. No one will say anything. In the present lax state of society, our affairs are no one' business but our own, and plenty of men are ready to take my place—for beauty is so very, very rare." Suddenly it struck him how horrible it was that he should be sitting here, saying these things—incredible things; but the girl her- self had put the cart before the horse. Anrt yet he was to blame a man is always to blame if he lets a woman make herself common and cheap to him. Tt's Dell," she said, under her breath. "Bell. Dell. Dell!" Lenore," he said, and almost groaned, If why don't you women make us men respect you—Heaven knows we are eager enough to do it!" Lenore laughed con temptuonsly. Her sleepy eyes were now widely open, for she knew that she had played her cards badly— carelessly—and lost the man. Nor could she punish him. When a woman claims complete indipendence, and emanci- pate horsel? wholly from home authority, she forfeits the protection that her mankind could and would extend t-o her did she con- form to the canons of conduct that rule girls who respect themselves. Of course, she knew that these accidents sometimes happened to ITirls of her views and habits-that marriages, drifted towards without visible intention on the part of the man, sometimes did not come off; but it was very rarely that a man had the moral courage to "get out" at the last moment, and she had not for a moment expected such courage in Brwee Gibson. And the man was rich, desirable in every way, and—here was the -ing-he would go back to Dell and mam her, a,nd she, beauti- ful TA-nore. would have to put up with one of the inferior men eager to take Brace's place. "I feel a cad and a beast," he said; "yet I know that what I am doing is for the happi- ness of both of us-if love were not forth- coming from me you would se-elk it else- where." "Oh! don't mind me," said Lenore, in a. ■hard, dry voice. It has taken you a con- siderable time to find out that we were thoroughly unsnited to each ether—but batter late than never." He whitened, understanding now why Fir) many men married unhappily—because it was easier to them lo be unhappy than cads; yet he knew that his whole future life hung or the issues of the next few moments that he must be a brute, and a resolute one. if "he were to cut himself dear of her—and (Suddenly he sprang to bis feet. "Yes-, go," fne said, furiously; "go back to Dell," and turned on him a face so deformed by passion. that he hardly knew it. Truly, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned," and he felt like a beaten hound as he left her. The children were all at school, and Dell was alone in the little llighgate house, frag- rant with flowers, when Miss Lepeil was announced. There was only a very slight acquaintance between the two, and Dell roooe, surprised, as the tall, beautiful girl swept in made a pretence of touching her hand, and plunged at once into the subject that had brought her there. Mis? Brunton," she said, for a year Bruce Gibson and I have gone about every- where together. He behaved to me as the girl he was gcing to marry, and now he has left, mc. Dell had been working; now she folded her hands on the work, and said, gently: "He asked you to marry him?" "Man do not ask girl nowadays," said ¡ Lenore hotly. "They just drift into an engagement; but the one who backs out is— dif:honoUtl"a hie." For a moment Dell was silent, a lovely colour coming into her cheeks, that trans- formed her almost to beauty. "I don't know," she said, quietly. "You see. that's all just pia-yine: róund, and marriage is a working partnership, is it not? A man should be .:0 very, very sure before he and a girl should hesitate so very, very long before she "Oh! call it sordid prudence, not love,' cried Lenore—"the sort cf 'Love me little, love me long' business." "Hasty love is quickly crone," concluded lifted hcr brown cye3—"Bruce loved me, and, when he asked I me, I was prepared to confess- that I loved him; but you took him away from me—you made hi'rn apparently one of that fast brigade to which you bng. But he is. too I strong, too fastidious a man to permanently adopt its manner" and mode of life. Have you come here to ask me to persuade him to retu-rn to it?" "I have come to you;" said Lencre, "to put it to you, as a point of honour between one woman and another, not to take him back as yonr lover when he really belongs to me." Who speaks of 'honour'? Who stole first?" cried DtU, with a strange note of passion in 1.{,I" usually quiet voice. "We were very happy, and, though I am plain, I coukl have I made him the sort of wife he wanted. Oh! you beautiful people are never such happy, beloved wives as we despised ones, who study a men, and keep his home sweet and restful for him!" "Bestial, with a houseful of brats!" cried Iienore, furiously, the atmosphere of the rcom. the soft white needlework under the girl's wo:np..t1:r hand, t ho wing in sudden violent contrast to her own hridge-playing- cigarettc-smoking entourage, as she knew it would to Bruce when he came—for come lie "arelv would. "I love children," said Dell, and touched with an exquisite gesture of tenderness the work in her lap. "I could no more do with- cut my little brothers anù sisters (especially :lOW our dear mother is dead) than they could do without me. And Bruce"—her voic-3 unconsciously softpne<l—"loves them too." "And I hate them. The yare a fearful ex. pense and awful worry. So you will take Bruce back?" "No!" The voice was very soft, but very final, and the man who, finding the front door open.. had walked in with the freedom. of an old friend, heard it as he paused on the thres- hold of the drawing-rocm. "Then he will co'hc back to me!" cried 1-encre, springing up joyously. "Don't move, my carriage is waiting in the lane. May [ go through this window?" and. with no fur ther ieave-taking, and the usual lack or manners of her tyre, she vanished. 3X11, left alone, mutely interrogated the ceiling and iumiiture, instead 07 lk.aven, and resumed her work; bur a tear fell en it, and rusted her needle. "She is very lovely, and he is just-, man." .-be said. Than, hearing a slight sound he- hind h?' turned to "race standing ju.;t in-sii'e Jie dcor. "0'?. ;h:' ?.ied, wa"mly.

He was yttte and thin, but handsomer than e-er. she thourh-. in hi: lean, brown way; and he bad the look in bis eyes that had always m-asterei her before she found him out as the weak, self-indul- gent beauty-lover that he had proved him- self for the pa.st year. "JX>U," he said, qr.ietly, "I beard your pro- iniso to Miss Lepeil just now, a.nd you have just got to break it, even as I have refused to pay my debt of honour to her. We will be moral runagates if you like—but "Speak for yourself," she said, coldly, and took up the work on her lap, and drove her rusted reddle steadily through it. "While the man in abroad, sowing tares, the womai sits at home, and thinks to some purpose. Go back to Miss Lepeil. She has many olaims on you"—there was scorn in her voice—"that I have not, that I never should have, were we engaged a lifetime." Then she turned resolutely to other matters, inquired for his people, spoke of her father and the children, gave him tea. and made him feel that for a whole year he bad sbut himself out from the only real lio,no that since his mother's death he had ever known. Whan, six months later, the engasrement of Miss Lepeil was anounced to a rich mus- tard maker, and it was followed, at no grea. distance of time, by the marriage of "that handsoms, charming, rich Mr. Gibson to homely girl of the 'Little Dorrit' type, named Dell Brunton"—or so said the world-neither Bruce nor Dell minded.

For burns, if quickly applied, it affords immediate relief; for blisters o:; I the bands it is equally efficacious. It is good for rheumatism and sore throats, and alto for corns oo the toes. It is a sure preven- tive against moths. Drop a little iu t.h: bottom of drawers., chests, and cupboards garments will then be safe from injury.

It is, I believe, the largest (excluding- the Jackson and S!avin match purse) which has ever been guaranteed in Britain, and I do feel that it is the greate-st of pities that a battle such as the two men would undoubtedly put up should, through Moran's grasping olicy, be allowed to slide out of t frasping e i n, dom.

Dash for the Bridges
Dash for the Bridges BATTLE ON BANKS OF THE THAMES The great battle which is to conclude the military manoeuvres commenced on Monday morning, and continues till to-morrow. The Red Army, which is in territory close to the north bank of the Thames, is opposing the Blue Army, who oocupy a position to the south of the river. The forces moved towards each other at daybreak. Lieutenant-general Sir Horace Smith-Dor- rien, commanding the Red Force, realising the advantage of an early success, laid his plans to seize the bridges and crossings over the river as his first objective..With that end j in view he pushed his cavalry down from the high ground in six strong columns, heade.d by a cloud of cyclist scouts, making straight for the river. By six o'clock they were 011 the banks, and their dash was in many cases rewarded with success. At L/echlade they were over tbe river and 7ot well into the enemies' country before they were checked by rival cavalry. They held on to their posi- tion. however, for an hour, by which time t, Blue Infantry came np, and the Reds retired in good order over the river, blowing up the bridge after them. It came to the knowledge of the Red com- mander that a Blue force of considerable strength was in an msolated position near Oxford, and he sent his cavalry, with a strong backing of infantry, to dash acro-s tha river at Newbridge, seize the high ground at Longworth, and either corny el this isolated Blue f(;,roo to fight in a dis advantageous position or else retire. The da?h of the Blue cavalry frustrated this :cheme. When the advance guards of the Re.ds reached the river they found that the bridge had been destroyed a few minute- beforehand, so giving the Blues just suffi- cient time to draw in the isolated fcrce towards the main body. It was a narrow escape from early disaster. The Red scouts discovered a narrow foot- bridge over the river half-a-dozen milfts to the east, and thither the mounted column moved quickly. They dismounted, and cne by one led their horses over. Away they dashed south to try and stop the Blue force, but the time taken to get over the bridge had been fatal. The Blues had had a good start, and the Reds were met with hot infantry and artillery fire from' a well-placed rsarg-uard, and were compelled to halt. Red engineers were hurried to the river in rear of their infantry, and while the latter were crossing by the fords the destroyed bridges were repaired, and the artillery were "nt across. The Red forces from the east were now pouring across the river by a dozen bridges, and began to bring strong pressure to bear on the Bluec, who. having seized the bridges to the west about Lechlade, were moving in great strpnh north. Thus the two armies were invading each other's terri- 'ory, and were each astride the valley. A decided attempt to turn the right of the Tllues at Buckland was made by a strong mixed- Red force, who made excellent pro- press until they ran right up against a. lino >f cleverly made entrenchments on Crom- well's Battery, hard by Faringdon. The Reds found great dimculty in locating them. This was solved by the war balloon sent up near Hampton. The Red artillery then opened a hot fire, under cover of which the Red infantry went forward and carried the hill. The right of the Red Army had been steadily advancing against the Blue force, who had crossed the river, and by sound tactics checked their northern movement and compelled them to act on the defensive whilst still astride the river. When night came the armies were in close, contact all along the line. It wa.s rumoured that a squadron of the 5 b and 21st Lancers had been taken by sur- nriee by the Household Cavalry a.nd captured, but no confirmation was forth- coming late on Monday night. The opening stage of the big encounter has given the Reds the advantage. The Duke of Connaught watched the operations. Red forced matters with vigour directly night covered hie movements, and Faringdon was besieged. Blue is moving his forces to the relief, and all his troops are entrench- ing themselves in the positions they hold. The roads are blocked with transport, and the cavalry of both sides are endeavouring to capture the wagons in the darkness. Reorganisation of the Genera! Staff I A Special Army Order was issued on Mon- day night containing instructions relating to the organisation of the General Steif, in substitution for those contained in a previous Army Order of 1906. The General Staff, it is stated, falls into two principal div-isions-the General Staff at the War Office and the General Staff in command of districts. The functions of the former include advising on the strategical distributions of the Army, supervision of the education of officers and of training, and preparation of the Army f:iT war, the study of military schemes, offen- sive and defensive, and the direction of general policy in Army matters. In exten- sion of that policy the functions of the General Staff in command of districts are also set out. The General Staff will be drawn from officers considered most likely to prove capable of forming a school of progressive military thought, and the appointments will he for four years. At home and in the Colonies they will be made by the .Secretary of State on the recommendation of the Chief of the General Staff, and in India they wil. be made by the Commander,-in-Chief. Specially meritorious service on the General Staff may be recognised by accelerated promotion. <tB-

Gabe's knee again went wrong in playing ag-a.inPtt Penarth, and it is more than probable that he will never again take an active part in the game. Anyhow, his knee on Monday night was much swollen and very weak. In the forwards D. Pike and J. Brookman have been introduced, the latter having shown excellent form for the Reserves on Saturday. The selected players tre:- Back, F. Wood; three-quarters, R. A. Gibbs, W. Spiller, L. M Dyke. and J. L. Williams; half-backs, W. L. Morgan and P. F. Bush; forwards, F. Smith, J. Pugsley, J. A. Brown J. P. Casey, F. W. Gaccon. D. Westacott. D. Pike, and J. Brookman. Reserves, J. Daley amd W R. Shepherd.

A  DRAW. A POINTLESS DRAW. NEATH HAVE HARD LUCK AT COVENTRY. G T.P?. Coventry .=. 0 Õ' 7' Neath 0 0 0 At Coventry in brilliant weather, The attendance numbered 1,000. Coventry started, and Neath quiokly obtained posses- sion. The backs engaged in neat passing, which took them to the opposing 25. Coven- try tackled keenly and broke away, but a mark by Edwards saved when danger threatened Neath gained ground and Coven- try were hard pressed. Thomas made pro- gress for the homesters, for whom Alexander almost landed a goal from half-way, the ball striking the upright and re-bounding. J. D. Davias ran splendidly before being collared close to the corner flag. The home side were weak, and had hard work checking the open, fast play of their opponents, and relied prin- cipally upon forward rushes. The game was more than ever confined to the forwards in the second portion, and not until the close were further open movements seen, when the visitors almost got through. The result, how- ever, was a pointless draw. ABERAVON V. NEWPORT.. For this match at Newport on Saturday the Uskride team, as selected on Monday night, will be as followsBack, S. H.

I Pon,typool 2 1 12 Cwmbran Albion 0 0 0 The Pontypooi Club arranged an extra fixture for Monday, meeting Cwmbran Albion, one of the smartest junior teams in the Eastern Valley. A welcome re-appear- a-noe was made in the ranks of Pontypool by J. P. Jones, and he was partnered on the wing by F. Thorna.s, who ram second in the recent Welsh Powderhall. The game was contested at a great pace, especially in front, and at half time Pontypooi were leading by a goal, which was smartly dropped by R. Lloyd. In the second half Bryn Carter got tseretc witb.&, tm After a pretty: round of passing, but Morris Williams failed with the kick. Several attempts to increase their lead were made by Pontypooi, and finally a brilliant run throucrh the defence was made by S. Prosser. When tackled he tranrferred to Ivor Evans, who (scored in a favourable position for R. Lloyd to goal. I CR-UMLIN OUTCLASSED. 1 G. T. Pts. I' Penygraig .I.2 3 18 Crumlin 0 0 0 Crumlin were outclassed by Penygraig in a pretty game at Mid-Rhcndda OIl Monday. Penygraig started well. Ikey, Thomais, after a few exchanges. received the ball and ran over with a soft. try without being touched. After this PenygTav had to defend, but the home forwards sin* got back to the visitors' 25. Mundy gtar?d a round of passing, and Ayton .Jone<?. after a neat run, gave to Davies, who ran in behind the posts for Griffiths to convert. In the second half both sides played a keen game. From a scramble D. W. Griffiths made a daring screw run, and neatly pa.-sed to Hemming, who scored easily. From a line- out Eison added another try, and Bateman, the full-back, dropped a goal from the 25 line. A PROMISING START BY EBBW VALE. G. T. p'ts. I E,)<bw Val-c- 1 3 11 T,.Chei-I)ert 0 0 0 The Ebbw Vale Northern Union team suc- cessfully opened their list of home fixtures on Monday by defeating Treherbert. Thp visitors \e1'' witho'ut Rees, their full-back, but otherwise they were strongly repre- sented. after the start Treherbsrt were I penalised for off-side play, and "Chick" Jen- kins found touch with a strong kick. The visiting forwards were playing a bustling game, and beat the home Fix in loose work. The home backs got to work, and eventually Thomas brought off one of his favourite tries by running through tbe scrum. "Chiek" failed with the kick. Dai Davies dropped a ^oal for Ebbw Vale, who when the teams crossed were leading by five points. Upon resuming Ebbw Vale tried to im- prove their score, until a fine movement initiated by i-liggins resulted in Llewellyn scoring a good try. Again the goal kicl, failed. Just before time "Shisrlo" Thomas got over with another try, which was not converted.

Their gocd fortuEe did not, however", had to them to the ValJeys, where they had to accept a defeat by the Tonit^s. In th? second half two accidents to Lies (Ton) and Steer (Rangers), who had to leave the field cast a slight damper on the game. Soon "after the start the Rangers' goal- keeper was lucky in saving a shot by Davies. Just after Travers, finding a,n opening, scored with a fine shot which completely baffled Percival. After several attempts by Ton. Vyfe, from [1, smart forward movement. netted, amidst vociftrrous cheering. Curtis soon afte^ added another score. Steer made a, supreme effort, and forced his way through to the Ton goal, hut was unable to retrieve the position, Curtis, just before te whistle blew, adding another goal, leaving the score at three goals to one.

The ga,me opened rather tamely, until Whita-ker put new life into it with one of his typical runs. A beautiful centre was well taken by Toward, who headed the boall into the net, giving Merthyr a lead of on-e-nil at half- time In the second half a corner to Mer- thyr saw an exciting bit of play in the Wey- mouth goal, and Kelly's final effort was only inches wide of the mark. Kelly's play throughout the game was one of the out- standing features, his tackling and feeding being both. marked with excellent judgment. The same player had his efforts rewarded by scoring Mcrthyr's second goal. I CWMPARC AND TREORKY IN II GOOD FORM. Goals. I Owiwparc and Treorky 5 I Trebafod (Lewis-Merthyr) 1 This was a South wales League match. Trehafod played a kick-and-rush game, and in the first minute scored a lucky goal through Martin. The united team then showed pronounced superiority, and kept Keats busy rebelling shots. J. Evans (left wing) scored two goals, and Bob Peake and Dicky Jones one each Their forwards, how- ever, lost chances galore. TRIAL MATCH AT ABERDARE.

Winfield, the Welsh international and I Cardiff custodian, has been unfortunate enough to meet with a. serious accident at i the very begilllling of the season. Playing for Glamorgan County against the London Welsh at Wandsworth Common on Saturday, he twisted his leg and slipped a knee carti- lage. Though a seemingly simple injury, it will mean an end to Winfleld's brilliant career, as he could not play again without being uncertain of a recurrence of the mis- chief at any moment. ThiA is all the more regrettable because the popular custodian never felt keener than he did prior to Saturday's accident. NORTHERN UNION OFFER I DECLINED. Ebb Thomas, the Blaina Rugby full-back, has been approached by some Northern Union agents. He is reported to have received a tempting invitation to "go North," but declined to enter into negotiations.

Phosferine made me as young and vigorous as 1 was ten years ago, with nerves strong and steady enough for any emergency, that's what it has done for me, says Mr. John Ridley, Holder of the Royal Humane Society's Medal for Life-Saving. Mr. Ridley has saved eight people from drowning, and his exciting experiences gave him ample opportuni- ties for testing the potency of Phosferine, and he declares that for nervous exhaustion, shock and influenza, the Remedy of Kings may be relied upon to effect a thorough cure. It is the men with such splendid vitality as Mr. Ridley's who get first chance, who excel over others, now-a-days. That he has not symptom of age, not a sign of wear and tear, Mr. Ridley says is due to the invigorating properties of Phosferine. Ailments and ill-effects gone. Mr. John H. Ridley, 56, Wanstead Park Road, Ilford, writes You may be interested to know that the most memorable events in my life, the saving of people trom drowning, were due to the fact that I felt my nerves strong and steady enough for any emergency, which condition I attribute to the energising efficiency of Phosferine. I am a firm believer in the invigorating powers of Phosferine, and, being accustomed to take it regularly, I feel equal to any sudden oemand on the nerve forces, and capab:e of any amount of endurance. The tonic is a splendid protection against exhaustion and the ill effects of exposure, and my long experience proves it may always be relied upon to dispel influenza, sluggishness or any general debility. I have noticed in cases of people suffering from shock, a few doses of Phosferine have an excellent calming and strengthening effect, restoring the nervous vitality most remarkably. So far as I am concerned, I am now quite free of sleeplessness and loss of appetite since taking Phosferine, and I feel braced up and as hard as nails. To-day I am as young and vigorous as I was ten years ago, despite the arduous nature of my duties, for which happy state of affairs I have to thank Phosferine."—May 28, 1909.
