Yeu knew, they have a sort of farmhouse at Mil ford, Pa., way back In the country from the station, and have been spend Inc their summers there. Just re cently Miss Pauline Bewie, who has returned home from a trip through the West with her cousin, Mrs. James Law, left here te go up and visit Mrs. ,Hacker, who was Miss Emily Pepper. Mrs. Hacker met her at the station ind they dreve back in the meter some twelve miles or mere te find the house had been btruck by lightning and was literally burned te the ground. Some neighbors had tried te save things, but only a few clothes had been rescued.. Can you Itnogine a mere gene feeling than te drive up te your home and find It in ruins? And it wns such an at tractive, qualm house. I am se sorry for them. THE William Donners are certainly having a gay summer nt Watch Hill. 1 have never heard anything like the number of girls who have gene and are going up there te stny with them.

U4trlt$ theUrgtr Wemtn NHNI The Daily Novelette The Peacher By Lily Wtmitl LUCILLE had fallen In lore with Reggie Devereau. Be had asked ber te marry him and she had accepted him, but she was net happy at all. Iteggle did net measure up te the man of her dreams the man she hnd ex pected te fall in love with and once again, she felt, had tier emotions ruled her rather than her mind. It irritated her te think she had been be weak when her reasoning powers told her plainly that a marriage with Iteggle would be a fiasco. In trie first place, Reggie wan one of these nice, mild young men who are switched ever te anybody's opin ion end whose tact and geed nature border en weakness of character. In the second place, Luclllc's entire fam ily, nnd it was a long, rambling one, .was waiting for Just such a man te lean upon. Then Jim Burns came te town, open ed a sporting goods btore nnd took the populace by storm. At a church social Lucille met him nnd was fas cinated. He was just- the direct op posite of Reggie; he made It known "at once thnt he "wouldn't stand for any nonsense," everybody had te give in te him, he was net a man te" back down from the slightest opinion that he might express. He wai, n big, finu-loeklng fellow and bis masterfulness was like a magnet. It nle attracted Lucille. She never forget the first night he cnlled. The pnrler was filled as usual, a line of aunts and cousins beaming with welcome and sweetness and a couple of flapper nieces at the piano twinkling alternately with coyness and fascinating pcrtness. In five minutes the room was empty excett for Lucille nnd Jim. "I den t stand for any non nen rense, you knew," he hud smiled in his tyrannical way. A couple of times when Reggie celled Lucille waB "out," and when she did receive him he only looked at her with big, reproachful, doggy eyes, but never said a word about Jlm'n calls. If Lucille pitied Reggie it wns n pity that bordered en contempt. Nevertheless, she realized that tlilnes could net se en forever this way she would have te maKc a aecuien between the two. It was peculiar that as much as uhc ad mired Jim, she had net the heart te tell Reggie the was through with him. Then ene night after Mierdehs Leur nn Idea suggested itself. She won dered that she had net thought of that selutlpn sooner nnd paved iierstlf these days of indecision and worry. She would let Jim settle the whole af fair. She would Invite the two vnune men for the same evening, but neither would Knew that the ether was com ing, nnd Jim, who would net stand for nny nonsense, would seen hctlle the affair. The very nxt morning Lucille tele phoned Jim te come up thnt evening, nnd he answered in his usual authori tative way that it had been his inten tion and he would be there early. Then she called up Reggie. He was delighted te hear her voice ; he thanked her humbly for cnlling hint, but he did net knew what te say about coming. "De you reallv want me. Lucille?" anxiously. "Why, of course. Reggie, otherwise I wouldn't have asked jeu," bhc spoke sweetly. "Lucille! Darling, you make me very happy. I'll be there." Jim arrived first. Disposing of his hat, he linked his arms through Lu cille s nnd led her btrnlght te a daven pert, and, once seated, he kiwed her.

Loek her, honey girl, you and I had better come te an understand ing," he said. "There's that llttle shrimp Reggie Revereau hanging around here and you knew I won't stand for any nonseeso!" Lucille laughed a little and Jim con cen tlAed. "When I want a thing, no matter hew small, I always get it, and when I've found the girl I lore, well a little thing like Reggie won't stand in my war. that's nil and he might ns well knew, sooner or later, that I don't stand for any nonsense." Lucille drew in her breath. Reggie might come any minute, peer Reggie. And hardly had she thought of him when the deer bell rang, i The portieres parted and Reggie came hreetlly into the room. "Helle" and. stepped a second when he saw Jim settled with Lucille en the daven port. Lucille jumped up and extended a friendly band. "Helle. Reggie," kindjr. "Won't you sit down?" "Helle, Reggie I" celled Jim pat ronizingly, getting slowly te his feel. "Geed evening," answered Reggie stiffly, ill at ease, a wrinkle lining his usually smooth forehead, "what are you doing here?" Jim burst into a laugh and Lucille looked at Reggie in genuine surprise. "What am I doing here?" echoed Jim highly amused and burst Inte nnethcr big boom of laughter. Lucille giggled nervously, she felt uncomfortable. The line in Reggie's forehead was deepen ing. Jim's laughter died out nt last nnd he turned suddenly te the ether young man; this time there was no hint of amusement in his voice, but that mas terful, compelling note thnt Lucille adored, "That's none of your buMness, Reggie Devereau ! New, yeuns fellow, I'll tell you something. I don't stand for any nonsense, se " Reggie came forward like n menacing wolf, nnd the bear stepped bnck.
