A QUEER GIRL
By S. H James.
--
1IAT.L I invito her?"
Stella llccvcs piuiMcc1, vilh pen
poihtil in Hi" ii ir.
din I ht'lp you, Slt ilii?" nUcd .Mrs.
Ilccves, from tin- depths of her oiisy
!mir lV t lit fin:
"I was thinking, mother," responded
Utrlln, "whether I fclioiild Invite Myra
(inrliiiiil to spend u week here. You
jmow Hint I'ntty IlarjiiT, Nellie ('ntnj
lnll nml Jennie Slntr lire coining."
"Why not invite Myrn?" nsked Mrs.
lircves," ryciii her tliiiifrlitcr curiously.
'Well, I don't know," nn'ul Stella,
lowly. "She is ever no nice a girl, but,
he' (iteer."
"How queer?"
"Very quirt, mid not at nil like other
pirls. Sometimes 1 like lier, mid sonie
tiuies t do not, mid tluit is the way
nilli all the girls. She is not good com
pany. 1 nm nfrnid. nnd yet 1 want to
invite her for that very reason. She
never goes home except during Ihe
summer, anil it is so dreary in the iiciid
einv during Christ mas nnd I'.iister hol
idays, ltut I dare say ulic will not
come, nnyhow."
"Invite her. Stella." said Mrs. Uoevcs,
quietly. And Stella did.
It was night when Myra rnnie, the
train being late, und Mrs. Keeves did
not see her until they nil sat lit the
breakfast tnlile next morning.
All the girls were there, nnd nt first
Mrs. llerves mentnlly decided that
Myra was only a homely girl with
brown hair nnd hazel ryes, nnd much
like other girls, but before the meal
was ended tshe found herself watching
the girl with increasing curiosity. She
was queer, in her reversed, almost mo
rose, manner, in her habit uul silence
still her grave, sweet smile.
"She is queer," said Mrs. IJeeves to
herself, "but I like her."
Before the day was out she liked
Myra more than ever. When the other
girls went out for a walk, Myra stayed
indoors, fed the canary, (lusted the
brie-u-brac, nnd shook up Uio sofa nnd
chair pillows, und did several other
little tasks which Stellu generally for-
Within three days Myra was firmly
established in the Keeves household,
f he was so handy nnd so helpful and
no pood natured, everybody said, that
Stella and the girls actually held n enu
cus to discover why they hud called
iier queer, and failed to find a cause.
On the evening of the third duy Ar
thur Keeves. came home on leave from
the naval school, where he was a cadet.
Arthur was only 18, but such a big,
liurly fellow, especially In bis cape
overcoat, that you would have taken
Lim for 25 at leust at a distance.
"You shall be our cuvnlier, Arthur,"
said Stella, "aud I promise you shall
have your hands full."
"All right,", asserted Arthur, care
lessly, "l'ring on your girls; you can't
frighten a sailor."
Then began a round of gnyety such
as fairly took away the girls' breath.
They made trips to the old mill nnd
the abandoned powder magazine, they
went hunting aud skating, and Arthur
wns the guiding spirit in all their
pranks.
Myra revived her reputation for
queerness in these expeditions.
"By the greut hoop-block!" cried
Arthur, with undisguised admiration,
to his mother, us he was eating a late
, breakfast, "I call ber a jolly girl, und
no mistake."
The girls say she is queer," said Mrs.
Keeves.
"Queer!" he burst out. "Well, yes,
perhaps she is, but I wish there were
more queer girls like her. Is she rich,'
mother?"
"I believe not, Arthur."
That's lucky!"
"Lucky?"
"For her. She will huve to work, and
she is Bure to muke her murk, and it
vil! be a big one. Mother, I think"
"Arthur!" called Stella, outside, "if
you ever get through eating, we girls
would like to have you drive us to the
Post olliee."
On Tuesday ATthur's leave would ex
( rir nnd so it was arranged, that on
Monday there should be a picnic. It
Arthur's idea.
"Why not?" he asked. "It's mere
Bonsense to suppose that you can't
live a picnic nly in summer. What's
'h matter with taking the big sleigh.
Imtding it up with picnic grub, includ
rubber blankets, in case we want
to sit on the ground, und linying a first
ass time generully?"
!t was ununimously voted thut there
s "nothing the mutter with it," und
Monday morning the picnic sleigh
i'ngled off. ,
Myra was there, rvrn more quiet
tlian usual, nnd her only response to
f,'neril chatter was u grave smile.
"What un old grandmother she is!"
whispered1 Nellie Campbell to Jennie.
t,i?fi-; and Jennie nodded a vigorous
ssent.
''1 believe she hn some dreadful nil
''iit," whispered I'ntty Harper, In her
urn. "nnd 1 wouldn't be surprised to
her drop ut uny moment,"
, "00n!" 8ld Stella, contemptuous-
Vt'1 on'y Mvri's way."
Meanwhile the object of these re
l''i'ki! sat quietly on the box-seut with
Arthur, and said never a word.
'I Kay," said Arthur, ut length, "why
ont you talk?"
''I!eeause,l have nothing to say,"
1 i.ef Myra, tranquilly. 'BesMtes, I
tl'inkirir "
re
am "Of the picnic?"
wyra smiled.
-!r"f.omethInB- more Important than
a. I" ' ave you ever bcen -n Cairo?"
wCUr looked nt her ln amazement.
troiuntar,IyqUCer eirl!" he eXClalmed'
MJra actually laughed.
"I know I nm," she said, quickly;
"but that Is tiot answering my ques
tion. Were you vvvr In Cairo 7"
"Twice."
"Do you know where the British con
sul general has bin office?"
"Quite well. But what In the
world "
"Patience! Is there, n large, brick
warehouse directly opposite, owned by
an Knglish firm, where Ivory, ostrich
feathers and spices are Mored?"
"By Jove, there Is!" ejaculated Ar
thur, In inere.islng nniiizement. "I re
member it quite well, it is such an old
building. But I sny "
"One more question," Interrupted
Myra, for the first time bef raying nomei
excitement. "Do you remember the
Knglishninn's name?"
"Let me see," reflected Arthur. "I
have heard It often enough. It. isfiold
en (inrden no. Car-yes! (inrland!
Why, that's your name, Isn't it ?"
"Yes," answered Myra, with another
smile. "The Cairo (inrland was my
uncle. He Is dead, nnd T am going to
I'-KJ'pt next month to straighten out
bis affairs. I beur they are dreadfully
tnnglcd."
Arthur nenrly let the lines fall.
"You are going to Kgypt!" he repent
ed, mechanically. "Do you know any
thing ubout Kgypt ?"
"Not so much ns I expect to," replied
Myra.
And before Arthur could' tell ber
what he thought of a 17-yenr-old girl
going hnlf round1 the world to settle
anybody's affairs, Stella called' out:
"Arthur, how long Is It. going to take
to find a picnic ground'?"
"We won't go a foot further," snid
Arthur, reining up. "We are eight
miles from home now, and it looks like
snow."
"Let it snow!" cried the girls, reck
lessly. .
Then they swept a clear spucejsprend
out the eatables, and began to eat right
away, as picnic folks always do, while
Arthur blanketed the horses.
But this picnic was just like every
other picnic. Not being in summer, it
couldn't rnin; so it snowed, anil after
braving it out until they looked like
snow images, it won decided to scurry
home.
Then the usunl accident occurred',
but somewhat more serious thau usual.
One of the horses kicked Arthur on the
knee ns he wns hitching him, and1 he
sank down in n heap, with a cry of pain.
At this there was a great uproar, and
the horse, highly alarmed, showed
signs of lashing out again. In which
case Arthur would have been brained,
when Myra stepped forward quietly
but quickly, nnd led the horse out of
reach.
"Are you able to stand?" she asked,
gently.
"Just about," replied Arthur, trying
to choke off a groun. "I think some
small bones must be fractured'. Can
any of the girls hitch up the horses?"
There was a blunk silence, and then
Myra said:
"I think I cun, If you will look on and
keep me from going wrong."
Arthur was thereupon helped into
the sleigh, and just about the time the
horses were hitched up he complicated
matters by declaring that he felt so
faint he could not drive.
"What shall we do?" wailed Stella.
And there were signs of a regular
panic, when Myrn snid:
"I will drive, If Stella will show me
the way."
Arthur was helped into the house,
and then Myra udded to the prevailing
ustonishment by volunteering to go for
the doctor.
"It is only a mile," she said, "and I
huve my hand in now."
You may be sure that Mrs. Keeves
and the girls made much of Myra for
the next duy or two, and were as much
grieved us amazed when she announced
her intention of leaving them foru long
and perhaps dangerous journey.
"I thought," suid Mrs. Keeves, in
quiringly, "that you had no friends
besides your mint ?"
"So did 1," said Myra, quietly. "It
was the morning of the picnic that I
received the letter announcing my
uncle's death.
"And you made up your mind within
an hour what to do?" queried Arthur,
who was propped up umong some cush
ions. Myra smiled assent.
' "A very queer girl," said Mrs. Keeves
to herself for the hundredth time.
She suid it ugain when Stella received
a letter from Myrn, dated' Cairo, March
10, 1SS5, telling her how she hnd admin
istered her uncle's estate, and winding
up with these words:
"You need not expect to see me for
Borne time, as 1 have joined the Red
Cross society, and I leuve for Khar
toum to-morrow."
"With all her money!" exclaimed
Stella. "Well, I never! I was certain
that she would go to Paris the very
iirst thing!"
Not unother word from Myra until
a month after the cable brought the
news that the war in Kgypt was over,
and then came another long and loving
letter.
Arthur was home ngaln, taller and
stouter than ever, and very anxious
to hear about the queer girl.
"I'll wager she's tired of the Red
Cross," he said, with a laugh, "She Is
too young for such miserable scenes."
"She bus left the Red Cross society,"
suid Stella, with a look ut her mother.
'T knew it." cried Arthur.
"And," continued Stella, slowly, "she
has started for Chinese Tnrtary "
"What?"
"To devote her life to missionary
work, lier aunt is amply provided for.
and the remainder of her fortune and
all her life Myra has given to the
heathen,"
There was almost a painful pause for
a full minute, broken by Arthur. .
"You're right, mother she Is a queer
girl! The queerest I ever knew."
"More than queer." was Mrs. Reeves'
quiet comment, "She Is the stuff that
martyrs are rami a of." ..'"M ' Da.va.

What does it profit a woman if she gain
the whole world of knowledge and lose her
own health ? Young women students and
School teachers, eager, ambitious, and full
of energy, very often neglect their health in
the struggle to gain education. They eat in
sufficient food, and at irregular hours, they
allow irregularity of the womanly functions
to be establislicf and the result is that they
'oecome chronic invalids with nil their edu
cation practically worthless. There is a
plain road back to health for sucli as these,
marked by the feet of thousands. It is the
use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery for diseases of the stomach and digestive
and nutritive organs, and Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription for diseases of the deli
rate organs of womanhood. A cure so cer
tainly follows the use of these remedies that
out of hundreds of thousands who have tried
the treatment, ninety-eight in every hundred
hove been perfectly and permanently cured.
Constipation, with its calamitous conse
quences, which is a common ailment of stu
dents, can be entirely cured by the use of
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

freely with great benefit. Get a package to
