THE
CLUBBY GIRL
T
AM II fill ill I II Ml tint II bit clubby,
I Mt'ul the nii l who thought she m
up to date. "I mihm' I lie v hole t rou
ble la that 1 Dili not in I lie nifi 11 inn-.
I'm il villi and 1 don't know it. So Ole
uudcr sitys, nuil what Oleanilci' my
goes. Oleander is a new woman.
"It whs at tin' Comli iiihI r.ru.sh
club that I met her. ICthel was there
and the mid:
'Wouldn't you liKe to meet Olean
der Viniiijf ilook, dear?'
" 'Do you mean the Oleander HoukV
1 asked.
"'Yes, Oleander Honk, who writes
things. Von see, the luinli and ltrnsh
girls are no used to genius they don't
mind it a bit.'
'"I have wori-hiped her verses for
yearn," 1 said, 'tin.e ilinr, tender dew
ilroppy litle t li iups that have the very
tvent of apple blossoms in them. .Most
decidedly 1 should liWe to meet her. 1
blull eotikider this soinewliat aimless
uftcruonn well spent.'
" 'Well, here she comes,' f,MirtfIed
Ethel.
"1 looked up and saw a sporty-look-ins
blonde, with huy-colored hnir coin
ing over, taking long st rides and with
a sort of 'varsity droop to he.r shoul
ders. She le uiui forward from the
waist up, and a gun-metal cigarette
case dangled from her belt.
"Slio had 11 fight tailor skirt with a
crease down the front and hip pock
ets. A M'nrlet waistcoat showed be- 1
ncath a jaunty little mess jacket, and
lier watch fob was of leather. Then
she had a stock tie with a horseshoe
pin anil u flaring l'anania hut like a
man's.
"She came over with u broad grin,
ud gave my hand a grip, then slowly
pumped it right ami left. It was most
disconcerting."
'"Well, you old beggar,' she said,
you don't mean to tay you've forgot
ten me?'
"I confess I was somewhat stunneii
hy the1 mode of nddn-ss, and then it
was thut I reflected that after nil this
wus probably the proper thing. Stay
ing away from club life makes one a
fossil!
"I was quite sure I had never met her,
though, for her dewdrop poem had
made such an imprcssiou on me that
I'd have recollected.
"'I hardly think,' I began, smiling
weakly, while Kthel looked at us in
astonishment, 'that is,' I am quite sure
I've never met you, but I've read you
with much pleasure.'
"(lh, break it off, break it off,
nhort, you beggar,' she said; 'you
know very well we were on the same
oommitee in the Electric club."
44 'Now I am sure yon are mistaken,'
I said, pleasantly, trying to ignore
her fail for addressing me an a beg
t'ar; '1 never belonged to the Elec
tric." "'Then it was the Thursday P. M.
club. What?'
44 'Nor to that," I said.
u 'Oh, come! you're pulling my leg,'
she said.
"She certainly is a breezy girl,
Oleander in. 1 didn't know what to
say, so I just smiled.
"Vou were chairman of the recep
tion committee of the Thursday J. M.
club, or I'P pay for the dinner," shu
said.
'Never belonged to it," I repeated.
. I was getting u little tired.
" 'Then the- Do It To-Day club. That
is it. I'm twisted. It was the Do It
To-day."
"'Never heard of the club,' I id.
"She Btaivd at me as if she thought,
that I was ing.
"'The fai t is. Misa Ilook, I've never
belonged to any woman's club," I said.
'I once belonged to a dinner club, but
there were a many men us women in
it. Prof. Volt, the electrician, was
president. It was quite u prosy, sci
entific sort of a "
"'Did you belong to that tough
club?' &he asked.
"Ethel broke in here to avoid trou
ble. '"Oh, how nice! Tell me about it,
she said.
'"It wan (i beastly tough crowd,'
went on Oleander; "that was where I
met you. lleuttly tough. A lot of the
worst hound?!- I ever was up
against.'
'"I suppose It must have been if
you ' I begnn,
'"Were there, I suppose you are
joing- to say," she ejaculuted.
"'No, I wasi't going to say it,' I
replied. 'I al v ays endetivor to avoi
being- rude."
"Keally she seemed a most unplear
ut persgn, There wus nothing dew-
Jroppy about her except her frfch
tlSS.
"'Von girls both wrote for the Tri
umvirate.' mi ;d Ethel, to break the
silence. 'Didn't you?'
'"Ye, that's why they had to lower
the price," said Oleander. 'Old Splicer
told me that, when 1 nsked him why
they'd gone and done it. "Ue can't
pet 20 cents for It If we continue- lo
print your stuff." he said. (Jiuer old
bird. Spacer was.'
" 'I don't think wr appreciated him,'
I fa il, trying to give n gentler 1 11 in
to the conversation. 'When he was
gone 1 realized thnt 1 had learned a
lot of things from him.'
"'Did, eh? Well, 1 taught him a
few,' said Oleander, glibly.
"'He seemed lo be quite well in
formed, as men go,' I said.
"'Well, ymi ought to know,' said
Oleander.
"I!y t his time 1 hnd begun tn suspect
that Oleander's manner was simply
an unpleasant pose, so 1 turned my
back to her 11 ml picked tip 11 maga
zine. "She gave a sort of horse laugh and
went off chuckling In a most horrible
wny.
"'Odd sort of person. Isn't i-he?" I
said to Ethel.
"'Oh. she's always like that." said
Ethel. 'She's such fun! She's the wit
tiest girl in the club and as quick as
a flash."
"'Well, she's too speedy for me,"
said I, 'and if you've any more like
her. just keep them off. .1 can't quite
assimilate that buoyant personality
of hers.'
"About a month after Ethel sent
me two tickets for the Comb and
!j-ush club's) vaudeville performance.
"'I can't be there,' she wrote; 'I'm
going to Florida, but I want you to
go and am sending you these tickets
with my compliments and much love."
"I'.ut I thought of Oleander Hook
nnd weakly capitulated by deciding
I wouldn't go. I'd have to cut her,
and Oleander teemed so explosive
there was no knowing w hat might hap
pen. "Hut thnt- day in cam Mrs. Fairfax,
n cousin of Ethels, and! told her 1
wasn't going and asked her if she
didn't want the tio4ets.
" 'Hut you must come," she snld.
'It's p-ninir to be such fun.'
"So I went with Mrs. Fairfax. Tn
Hie distance as. we entered I saw
Olennder. She had on another doggy
'looking gown and a derby hat.
Fancy! in the evening! She fastened
her gaze on tni. but 1 looked through
her.
"She kept coming nearer and' near
er, smiling broadly at me, but 1 just
didn't see her. Then she sat down
near me nnd began to talk loud to
another girl. I paid no attention
whatever to her.
"Finally she leaned over and
plucked me by the sleeve. I know
it's n Shakespearean sort of expres
sion, but that's just what she did.
She caught the sleeve between her
finger and thumb and gave it a little
tug just aw 11 fox terrier would do
with its teeth.
"I looked around nnd coldly con
fronted her. grinning broadly.
"'Oh. 1 said, 'Miss Hook, I believe,
isn't it?'
"'That's just who it is,,' began the
dreadful girl, 'you didn't see me, did
you?'
" 'Ves, I s:rw you," I said.
'"Well, you didn't know ine then,'
she blurted.
" 'You er hnd n different hat on,
T believe, when I met you,' I said,
eying the derby.
"'Do you always know people by
their hats?' she- said.
"'Not always; only sometime,' I
replied.
"Mrs. Fairfax came to the rescue
here.
"'Isn't it a delightful evening!' she
said,
"'I suppose it is," I said. 'Hut I'm
so easily scared.
"'Terrible thing to have such a shy
disposition,' said Oleander.
"'You're not troubled that way,
Miss Hook,' I remarked.
"'Oh. I'm all right,' she said. I'm
on earth and don't you forget it.
"'You'll not let me forget it, I fear,'
I said.
"'I'd hate to be a dead' on,' said
Oleander.
'"I wish I could share your views,'
I remarked.
"'Oh, be clubby,' she said. 'Life la
too short to chew the rag. Let us go
to the trapeze. Lady .lane.'
"I moved out of Miss Hook's nura.
Her relent ne-is gaze follow ed me. I
felt and I knew that she was saying
things.
"About three weeks after I got a
note written on the heavy paper of
the Comb and Iirush club with the odd
emblems of the association engraved
on top. The writ inn- looked as though
it hnd been done vih a match dipped
in stove polish. It said:

The spring is surrounded by ft

SINGLE OFFICERS IN DEMAND.

Crowded 4 oiulltlini of I nele
Bum's Military I'ohIs,
The overcrowded condition of the
residential quarters of the various
military posts in this country, due
to the return of regiments from the
Philippines', is embarrassing the mil
itary authorities, reports the Wash
ington Star. The trouble i not so
much with respect to housing the of
ficers themselves as with the mem
bers of their families. The situation
has reached n point where bachelors
are favored over benedicts in assign
ment to stations with limited living
accommodations where such discrim
ination is possible. And it is even as
serted that where there is no other
choice between two young candidates
for a com mission it is bestowed on
the single man in preference to one
who is married. Even then it is-rec-ognized,
however, thnt the bachelor
appointed is not likely to continue
long in single blessedness. The pow
ers that be admit that their author
ity does not reach to the extent of
interfering with subsequent affairs
of the heart.. It is made plain that
there is- no official prejudice against
matrimony but just at the present
the military posts would afford bet
ter nceoiiiinodat ions for more officer
if it were not for (he family attach
ments of winie of them. ' Congres'
provided liberally for the' army in
this respect during the session just
closed, but It will be many months
before the additional quarters author
ized are ready for use.

Frmn Pottsville conies a story of
an old chap who is proud to describe
himself as the original anti-expansionist,
says the Philadelphia Times. Soon
after the breaking out of hostilities
with Spain and the passage of thu war
revenue act by congress he began to
orate against the new taxes as an ex
hibition of federal tyranny. He would
fairly froth at the mouth as he de
nounced the war tariff and would
darkly hint at the possibility of a lat
ter day Patrick Henry and a new
awakening of the people to n sense of
the injustice. A severe cold laid him
low mid his doctor, finding him asleep
one day nnd thinking a little blister
ing would do him good, applied a fine
large mustard piaster to the old fel
low's back. The burning, stinging
bite of the heated mustard awoke the
crusty patient, who rolled over in
agony for a minute or two, clapped one
hand behind him, felt the plaster and
frantically tearing it off roared:
"Has it come to this that an old
man like me can't even die peaceably
in his bed w ithout having the govern
ment come ali'iig and clap a revenue
stamp on him?"

Prolonged talks in the street are not,
