A WOMAN'S REASON.
She Was Afraid of What People Wonla
nay.
A man and a (rirl were sitting to-
Kemer in me soft tin aft of a pontic
summer f veninff. she was trlflinc with
5 bitof embroidery, now ovntly ehnftntr
nun, now nninminjf a liar of song;
whilo he snt silently watching her and
sinoKing nis pipo.
They were very old friends, for tho
man had watched the g'.vl grow from
childhood Into womanhood. Ho was
but five years her senior, yet she
wemed more than five yonrs younger
to him.
His first fe.elinira toward her hud
slowly changed with Iter Increasing
years to one of extreme fondness, nnd
then another c'minyc had come, but he
had not told her of his love.
As he watched the dullcats outline
of bur fuoe, softened inlo even unusual
sweetness by the waning twilight, he
felt happy beyond expression. He ca
ressed his pipe as his thoughts went
buck over the lonjr spun of their friend
ship. He remembered noting- eery
action of hers that had bespoken a
budding love for him. Her sisterly re
proofswell he knew how sisterly they
were her anxiety about his Inveterate
smoklnp, her little jealousies; all her
expressions of fondness for him came
before his mind.
Yet sometimes she aeetned to relish
the cub admiration that her youthful
neighbors bcKtowed upon her. Hut
then probably she had not puessed of
his love, and perhnps a word was
needed to light hers,
But thnt evening ahe would learn all.
Perhaps It was too soon, but well, he
loved her. For a moment fleeting dread
unnerved him.: but no, surely no one
else had talked of love to his little
sweetheart.
He covered her little soft warm hand
with both of his, and ho looked deep
down into her gentle eyes.
"Hear, we have been friends ko long
that It seemed as though no change
could ever come. But u change has
come. Yoii have tilwnys had my friend
ship, darling, but now yon have taken
my heart Can you give me yours?-'
She turned her head away. "But
you must tuke It back, please. J can
not give mine for it."
Then came a few moments of silence,
and his fuce aged as he stared out into
the lonely darkness.
He heard her voice again, "Just
think what people would say" his
face darkened and his brow lowered
with a proud frown as he turned his
face toward her "if it was generally
known that I had a tobacco heart"
Brooklyn Life.
He Didn't Hrlng It Home.
After the return of the drummer from
his travels his young wife explored his
grip with an expectant face. Failing
to find that of which she was apparent
ly in search, she turned to him and
said:
"Where is the jag?"
"The what?" he asked in astonish
ment "The jag. Mrs. Laces says her hus
band saw you in Chicago with a lovely
Jag ori. Whatever it is, you are not
wearing it, and it isn't in your grip."
"O, that's all right. I left it at the
offloe. By the way I saw a handsome
spring hat in a milliner's shop down
town. If you care we will go down
town and you can look at it and if you
like it you can have it" N. Y. Press.
