Mr. Fieico gave liis browp leallier traveling lag an interrogatory siinko na ho took it up. "Certainly, Dttvo." "Well, good-by, thenl I'll bo back on Wednesday. I hopo you nnd Myrtlo won't bo nervous." "Oli, no!" replied Mrs. Pierce. "Wo'll fasten nil tho doors and windows eo curoly." Sho was a little, wiry, energetic, brown Bkinncd woman of about 83. Sho had snapping black eyes, a good deal of gold filling in her teeth, and was ovidently possessed of tho most complete self con fidence. , "But tho kitchen window won't fasten, Miranda. What is worse, it won t oven close. I pushed it up this ovening, to throw a lump, of coal after that dog of Dmco a, that was In our back yard, and it stuck fast. I tugged my best, but couldn't get it down, Wo will havo a carpenter fix it. Bo suro you send for ono to-rnorrow. But to-night" "Now don't you worry, Dave," ad vised Mrs. Pierco, briskly. 'Til fix that window. You know I am a woman of oxpedients." "well, good-by, Miranda!" Ho bobbed his sandy head and nave her tho brief, business liko kiss which expresses about as much affection as a dig in tho ribs, "Good-by, Myrtle!" "Good-by, pa!" said Myrtle. Sho was an angular child of 12, witli a pale, hatchet face, a pair of round, wa tery bluo eyes, and an air of alert timid ity. "And now," said Mrs. Pierce, bristling with oxpedients, "wo will boo to that window." Sho was locking tho doorafter her liege lord. "How, ma?" "Conto and helpl" was tho terso and indirect reply. Tho housowas aframouwclling,wlnch stood in tlio meager grounds allotted to tho majority of even thoso city houses which aro not rigidly "blocked." Tho kitchen window looked out on a narrow strip of back yard,vhich ran directly to tho alley- in tho rear. Mrs. Pierco lit tlio gas, revealing myr iads of water bugs scuttling around the room. "Oh, ma!" "Well?" Sho was exerting all her etrcngtli to put down tho perverso window. "I'm so afraid of tbe bugs. i,et s go upstairs!" "It's burrclars, not bugs, you'll havo to bo afraid of if wo don t get this window fixed," gasped Mrs. Pierco with grim em phasis, as sho realized her elforts to per suade tho pbdurato frauio wero futile, af her husband s had been. "Wo'll havo to go down stairs nnd bring up n -couplo of washtubs," she added. Her particular ability was beginning to exhibit itself. When they had brought tho tubs up stairs and placed them beforo tho win dow tlioy filled them from tho kitchen faucet. . Between them sho placed a chair, and thereon balanced frying pans, bread pans, gorn pans, jelly cako pans and pic pans. Then sho produced a hammer, a string and a couple of doublo pointed tacks, Tho. tacks sho drovo in lightly at each side of tho window casing and ran the string through. Ono end of it sho tied to tho handlo of tlio dinner bell and the other around tho neck of n bottlo of am monia. Directly in front of tho sill sho placed a largo mustard can, with tho lid very lightly laid on. It did not contain anything so mild as mustard, though. It was filled to the brim witli cayenno pepper Natal cay- enno at that. "Now," declared Mr3. Pierce, stepping back to view tlio result of her labor, "il any burglar gets in thero without our hearing him, it's a queer story. JIo's cer tain to flounder into tho water, knock down tho tins, ring tho bell, break tho bot tlo of ammonia and get tlio red peppei into his eyes into tho bargain. And serve linn right, tool In aggrieved anticipa tion of a possible intruder. Myrtlo'a round eyes wero rounder than over. "Oh, ma, it's worso than dynamite, ain't it! Oh, ma, you're an awful smart womanl Am t you, ma?" Miranda Pierco smiled tho smiloof ap preciated supremacy. But sho only an swered modestly : "I havo. a genius for oxpedients Myrtle." When, after having mado a final ro- Tiowing round of Oio houso they went up stairs to bed, tho 6pouso of David Pierco produced a. rovolver, which she tucked under her pillow. "Now if wo hear- tho crash in the kitchen. Myrtle, I'll just open tho win dow, firo olf tho revolver, and yell, 'Po- licol' " Myrtlo shuddered reverentially at such a heroic resolution. "Oh, ma, vou'ro awful bravo!" she whispered, as sho got into bed and cov ered her head up tightly iu tho clothes, Tho night woco on a warm, moist, dark August night. Mrs. Pierce, pro foundly confident of tho success of her barricado, should an entranco bo at temptedor rather, assured in such case sho would bo aroused, and brimful of other equally clever oxpedients went placidly to sleep". But wide-awake, half suffocated, shaking with terror, Mvrtle cowered by her sido. Eleven I How could her mother sleep when thoso tcrriblo burglars might even now bo creeping up tho back yard? Another hour of agony dragged by. Twelvol There was tho clink of n bell as it clat tered to tho floor, an nnpalling rattlo of falling tins, and then u furies of yells and groans and howls. "Oh, ma!" quavered Myrtlo, as a Iro mendoua sneeze from tho floor below terminated in a bellow of pain. "It's the iienncr potting in its work, my dear!"' explained M.-s. Pierco, ns sho grabbed her weapon and sprang out of bed. Across tho room bho rushod, flungjip tho window, firod off tho revolver as bIio had resolved, and shouted, "Police! burglars! patrol!" at, tho very top of her shrill, sharp voice. From tho houses ou either 6ido heads popped out. What is il?" cried tho neighbors. Thoy wero still rath r dazed by their rudo awukeniii!?. "It'a burglars, buiglars, burglars!' screamed Mrs. Pierco. A half garbed malo flguro went flyin: down tho steps of tlio adjoining house, and ran rapidly toward tho patrol box on tho corner. And still tho floundering, noisy, sneez- incr stamiiedo in the kitchen continued. "Wo nover would havo caught tho scoundrel liovcrr cried Miranda Pierco, her black eves Klittprini: with exulta tion, "If I had not happoncd to bo woman of oxpedients!" Tho neighbors wero flocking up tho stops now. . Mrs. Pierco was not reckless, if extra ordinarily prompt iu emergencies. She did not ruihdown to meet (hem. She iiuenr uio uuur koj out or till, wlimoiV, and told them to open tho door. When sho did ho, bIio slipped n wrap per over her night gown, nnd joined thorn, Behind her, holding to tho tall of hor gown, slunk poor littlo Myrtlo, her teeth chattering liko castanets, and tho great big frightened lumps in her throat al most choking her. "Whero is lie?" "Oli, tho rascall" "Is Mr. Pierco out of tow'n?" "Wluit keeps tho patrol?" "Caii ho havo escaped?" "No, I hear him." "Just listen to that!" "That" was a Perfect fusillado of groans, kicks, oatliB, sneezes. Desnlto tho excited chatter coing on around her, Mrs. Pierco was cool, Mrs. Pierco was collected. Indeed, sho was actually beaming. What did men do, who, unliko DaVo, had incapablo and brainless wives? Her burglar alarm had been effective. Tlio scamp was most likely so blinded by tho rod pepper ho could not find his way out. Who was it said n womau had no in ventive genius? Sho would bo praised for her brilliant prudence. Perhaps ecstatic thought! sho might oven bo written up in tho pa-" per3 undor tho caption of "Ueroio Mrs. Pierco," or "A Bravo, Brainy Woman." "Hark!" some ono said; "hero ia the patrol wagon I" And thero It was, to bo sure, dashing up to tho door with a great flourish. Tho oflicers leaped out entered the Pierco residence. All tho crowding, half clad individuals In tho front hall commenced proffering clamorous explanations. "Which is tho lady of tho house?" de manded an officer. "I am," modestly proclaimed Miranda; "and if it wero not that I am a woman of expedients, this contemptible law breaker would not be so neatly trapped." And sho positively grow ns sho uttered her laudatory remark. "Oh, como on! growled tho officer. Hurt but uncrushed by hia brusnue- ness, sho held tho keroscno night 'lamp over her head, and, followed by Myrtlo, tho policemen and tho over increasing group of neighbors led tho way. " 1 hero ho 1st sho cried, as sho flung open tho kitchen door. Myrtlo gavo a howl of terror. "Yes, there ho is!" corroborated tho neighbors. ' Tho officers advanced; so did Mrs. Pierce; so did thoso following. And this thoy saw: A room littered with scattered tins and broken glass a room flooded with water tho air unbear ably pungent with tho odor of ammonia and floating particles of cayenno pepper and in tho midst of all, seated on ono of tho overturned tubs, hia elbows on hie knees, his head held in his hands, groan ing nud moaning at an agonizing rato tho intruder! . "Tlio bloodthirsty wretch!" exclaimed Mrs. Pierco. "Hush-up; ho mightshoot!" murmured a cautious neighbor. "Officers, do your duty!" loftily com manded tho young man who was study ing traprio recitations. But thoy all wero now sneezing in such a convulsivo manner that ah attempt tb securo the midnight marauder was neces sarily spasmodic. "Come! (a-chow!) You aro under ar rest! (t-t-chew!) Help here, boys! Con found that pepper!" Tho man ou tho tub raised his head Ho looked around. Mrs. Pierco gavo a-shrick of dismay. "Oh, pa!" yelled Myrtle. Tho officers fell back. Thoso of the neighbors who could speak between sneezing began to questiqn and explain Tho man thoy had como to capture roso spoke; "I missed tho train (t-chu-u!) I went to tho lodgo for a coupio of hours, thought my wifo might liayo failed (a- tchew oo-oo!) to fix this widow, and I all" Ho went oil in another paroxysm. A ludicrous and yet pitiful appearance ho presented. - Ho was drippiug.froin a tumble in the tub, dirty from a stumbling collision witli tho coal hod, cut by tho battering shower of pots and pans, perfumed with ammonia, and evidencing every symp tom of a most aggravated case of hay tover. "Why didn't you uso your latcli koy, Davef ' asked Miranda. "Bccauso I left it behind in tlio pockel of my old (chu-hu-ooo!) suit!" with nn angry glare. "Or or," moro faintly, "ring the 'bell?" "When tho bell is broken?" ho inquired, with crushing sarcasm. "Ohl" murmured Miranda, Sho quite wilted. Never again di 1 sho daro refer to her self aa a woman )f expedients.
