Daysey Mayme and Her Folks
Hospitality is only another name
for lonesomeness
The woman who has to walk five
miles to her nearest neighbor to bor
row a tlatlron has her latch string
alwsA's out. and it is decorated with
fried chicken and soda biscuits.
But the woman who is surrounded
and besieged and mobbed by friends
nnd kin. ten deep, is never lonesome.
Nor is she overcharged with hospi
tality. Neither is a man at whose
home there are always guests.
There are always guests at the
home of Lysander John Appleton.
Guests of that sex and age who make
their presence known by pools of face
powder in the bathroom; by a sink
covered with pans in which fudge
was# made, and by squeals of so-called
laughter heard all over the house.
Lysander John protested. Ho pro
tested in vain seemingly, and it was
not till the last guest had gone that
Daysey Mayme explained.
"I have been providing," she said,
"for my board and keep in my old
age," and she showed her father con
tracts signed by all her guests.

He was dismayed. "Only eighteen
thousand dollars! And you did a
business of a hundred and twenty
thousand dollars last month!"
His manner worried her. "I hope
you're not thinking seriously of going
over."
"Going over where?"
"To the trust."
"Why? Don't you think the price
they offer is big enough?"
"It isn't a question of price, Mr.
Jones," she said, with flashing eyes,
"it's the principle of the thing."
"You'll have to explain that to me."
"Why. think of what you're selling!"
«rhe exclaimed. "It is the thing your
grandfather worked for and handed
down to your father; the thing that
he worked for and handed down to
you; the thing that you should work
for and hand down to your children,
then to their children, and so on and
on. Why, think of what you're sell
ing!"
He was a little dazed, but, still, he
surely needed money. "I don't see
where there's any sentiment connect
ed with the thing."
"You don't!" She gazed at him, as
tonished, and rose and stood beside
the table, looking down at him.
"Would you ruin the town in which
you were born? Why, your grand
father was the founder of this town,
Mr. Jones! Would you see seven hun
dred men and boys turned out of their
employment? Would you see the very
bread and butter taken from the
mouths of families?''
He felt he must defend himself, ex
plain himself. "Well, that's not my
fault. I'm awfully sorry, but I can't,
help it. I don't see how I can help it."
Her voice was deep and sorrowful,
reproachful, warning, pleading, stir
ring. "I'd give it very serious thought
3f I were you, Mr. Jones." Then the
timbre of enthusiasm crept into her
tones and stirred him deeply. "Oh, it
would be perfectly great of you 'to
stand by and protect the people of this
•little town! You've a chance to do
something very, very big—a really
wonderful thing! I hope you'll do K"
He shook his head, but not emphat
ically.
"And I believe you will." she added,
and then her smile returned.
"I must run along, now. You'd bet
ter come to the office tomorrow, as
early as po==iHe. There's a great deal
to be don •> many things to be
explained. I*7l expect you at ten In
the morning, shall I?"
"Can I make it a quarter past?"
"Very well." She turned away, but.
as she picked up a little shopping bag
with which she had been armed when
she came in, she evidently was re
minded of something, for she began to
fmnble in it. Presently she found
what she was seeking, and produced a
small tin boa, round and highly deca
rated. She handed it to Broadway,
who received It as if It had been some
thing of high value.
"This is our latest," she explained.
: "I don't think you've seen them. Jones'
[Pepsin Wafers. Good night. Mr. Jones."
Daaed and with the box held loosely
In his hand, he gazed at her retreating
back. "Good night —er— er Miss
iUchards."
After she had gone, while Broadway
stood gazing after her, the box ol
Pepsin Waters still held loosely in
his hand, the judge said cheerfully;
"She's a nice girl, isn't she?"
'ls she?"
"Well, how did she strike you?"
"An awful blow."
"An awful blow?"
Broadway caught hhn6elf. He real
ized that such talk would not do. He
tried to dodge the Inference. "No, no,"
he protested. "I mean her eyes. Her
eyes are awful blue."
The judge smiled satisfledly. "Br
eryone in this town is just mad about
her."
"They ought to be," said Jackson.
"Have another cigar," the judge sug
gested fervently.
This brought Broadway to hla
senses. Those cigars! "No, I thank
yon. I've got some gum here. But
I wouldn't mind having another glass
of lemonade."
was shown every form of hospitality
of which indigestion is heir. She
was lunched and dined and soda
fountflined. She was given such a
good time that she went home a nerv
ous and physical wreck.
Before she went she signed a con
tract which provides that the guest,
"The party of the second part, shall
keep accurate account of the time
spent at the home of the party of the
tirst part, and the expense attached
thereto, and hereby agrees that said
obligation to party of the first part
shall never be cancelled till party of
the first part shall visit party of the
second part, remaining as long as
old' party uf the second part.
"Furthermore, it is stipulated that
interest shall accrue from date of ex
piration of stay of party of the second
part with party of the tirst part, thus
giving to party of the first part
enough accrued time to amount to
her keep in her her old age."
"And the party of the first part."
said this first person In history to
solve the guest problem, "is I."
—FRANCES L. GARSIDE.
The judge was pleased. "Wliy, cei>
talnly, my boy. I'll go and get It my
self."
Broadway spoke up hurriedly. "No;
don't do that. Ask Mrs. Spotswood to
make It for me, won't you?"
"Sure," said the genial Judge. "And
I'll tell her that you asked me to. It'll
tickle her to deatli."
At this point Wallace returned. He
went to Broadway with his business
air exceedingly in evidence.
"Say," he said earnestly, "I've got a
real knockout surprise for you, young
fellow! Pembroke was waiting at the
office of the hotel. That was his man
he sent here. He knew we were leav
ing New York before we started. He
was telephoned to from the Grand Cen
tral station. That' 3 how skilfully they
work in these mad days of frenzied
finance.
"He didn't wait to take a train—he
came by motor. And just to show you
what a smart little fellow you are for
wanting to close at their price at
noon today, I, who represented my
self as Henry Wilson, your secretary,
have given them till eleven o'clock to
morrow to close the deal at fifteen
hundred thousand dollars,
"He's burning up every telegraph
and telephone wire between here and
Cleveland right now, and, unless I
miss my guess. I'm making you richer
by several hundred thousand dollars,
Just proving to you the value of pa
tience. Fifteen hundred thousand dol
lars! A million and a half!"
He had been leaning tensely forward
In his chair. Now he cast himself
backward In an attitude of satisfied
ease.
"What do you think of that?" he
asked.
"Bob," said Broadway slowly, "i
can't sell this plant."
"You can't!" It was an exclamation
of amazement.
"You don't know," 3a id Broadway
dreamily. "You haven't heard. Now,
just think of what I'd be selling. Here's
the thing my grandfather worked for
and handed down , 10 my father; and
the thing my father worked for and
handed down to me: and it's the thing
that I should work for and hand down
to my children, and then to theirs, and j
so on and so on.
Wallace Him with incredu
lity too great, at first, for wordb
When they finally came they were ex
plosive. "Say" he cried. "What the
h —l's the matter with you?"
CHAPTER IX.
On the way to the hotel, after they
had left the judge's house. Broadway
tried to tell Bob Wallace what, in- i
deed, v. as the matter with him, but !
could not, for he had not the least
Idea.
"Do you really mean to keep the
plant?" asked Wallace skeptically. j
"Yes, and pass It to my children,"
said the dazed young gentleman.
"You haven't any children, you con
founded ass!"
"And they'll pass it to their chil
dren," said tho coming magnate of the
chewing-gum trade.
'1 think you're crazy."
Bob, it s a cinch. But let me tell
you." And he tried to, with but slight
success.
Wallace was a shrewd young man.
'ls it your conscience or the girl that
has driven you insane?" he asked.
"I'm thinking about Jonesville. My
grandfather built this town."
"Well, he made a binned bad job
of it. Why didn't he build a place a
man could get a decent drink in while
he was about it?"
"And my father kept it going."
Well, he didn't keep it going very
fast."
And now I've got to keep my faith
with it. It is a sacred duty. I must
not abandon it."
"Say," said Wallace, in disgust.
"Where did you get that stuff? Have
you gone out and tried to get a decent
drink here? This town ought to be
abandoned. It ought to be put out
of Its misery."
The trust would close the plant and
ruin all these people."
"You d think they were first cousins,
to hear you talk about them."
"Bob," Broadway chided in a soft
and earnest voice, "they are far more
than that; far, far more than that.
They are charges placed by Providence
fn the care of the Jones family. And,
Bob. I m the last of the Joneses."
I>et us hope there'll never be an
other like you."
There'll never be one more earnest,
you can bet on that, Bob!"
They were in a shady stretch of
Main street, and, at night, a shady
stretch of Main street, Jonesville, is
about the darkest spot on earth out
side of Africa.
"Let's stop right here, in the dark,
till you get over it," said Wallace. 'lt's
late, but there might be some mad
dened, joyous Jonesville roisterer to
see if you went into the light."

Simulated tunics are among the later
developments of the over skirt idea.
Thev give the fashionable effect and

made with upper and lower sections each
of which is cut in three pieces. The upper
section is arranged over the lower and
stitched to it well within the edges and
the edges are finished free to be closed
with buttons and button-holes. The

to be commended to the woman on the
outlook for new designs with which to
prepare for the trip to the South or
between seasons. It appropriately can
be developed from any material adapted
to the tailored finish and, consequently,
will be exceedingly handsome in linen,

materials of the winter; also it can be
utilized for two materials if wanted, for a
very smart gown could be made bv using
plaid or other fancy material for the
blouse and upper portion of the skirt

If press opinions count for anything.

caught the public fancy. The theaters
where the ottering hats been made are
said to have been crowded at every
performance, and no reasonable doubt
remains that business on the season
will reach a figure that will astonish
the dramatic world. For a play holding
the stage over lifty years, within which
period not a single season has elapsed
during which it was entirely absent
from the theater. "Uncle Tom's Cabin"
still exhibits wonderful vitality. Scorn
ed. ridiculed and rejected of the elect
in the more important theaters a few
years ago, It is now ensconced in the
very homes of art and thousands are
weeping and laughing over its various
incidents nightly. I doubt whether

TANKEN AN ARTIST
The appearance of so celebrated an

of the very best monolgists that travel
the Keltli circuit, and lie never appears
In a less position than a feature at
traction on any bill in any city. He
is spending the week at the Orpheum
at a princely salary, the management
savs, and lie Is really a favorite, despite
the fact that this is his first Harrisburg
appearance. Mr. Tannen does an en
tertaining, brilliant monologue in pol
ished fashion. He is an entertainer of
class. Were Mr. Tannen the lone fea

he would be well worth the time and
price in himself. But then there are
