Daysey Mayme and Her Folks
By francos Ij. Uarside
It is Lysander John Applaton's
opinion that the foundation of the lik
ing of his wife and daughter for war
like prose and poetry lies in the re
iteration of the number of times the
aoldiers were told to "charge it."
They "charged" to the right, and
they "charged" to the left, and in one
particularly inspiring poem they
"charged the six hundred."
"We have never," lamented Daysey
Mayme, "charged that much to Father
at one time, yet he is always com-j
plaining of the size of the bills."
"We have to see that he has credit
»t all the stores." argues his wife,
"to keep his credit good. Now, what
would people think of him if his wife
and daughter went around paying
cash!"
Strengthened by this argument, and
which is unanswerable when uttered
by noble woman, the Appleton women
folks haunted all the stores, tirst to
secure credit for Lysander John, and
then, by purchasing that w ; hich they
did not need and could not afford,
to make his credit good, and the re
sults wore bills usually beginning
with abbreviations that looked like
the hieroglyphics followed by line
after line with the simple word "Do"
■written on, which Lysander John, in
his ignorance, thought must mean an i
attempt to "do" him, but which his I

Hf. "Looks like It."
Clara, by no means having loat her
fartereet. remained peering down the
■treet Into the evening shadows after
her companions had turned away dla
■boutaged. "Here comes someone, any
way," she presently Informed them.
"By Jove! It's Rankin!" Brpad
"way's voice indicated his relief as he
cbaerved that Rankin was alone. Evl
dently he had followed orders and
"lost" Mrs. Gerard.
There had come into the butler's
appearance an indefinable change. He
had not ceased to be a butler, but he
had ceased to be the very perfect but
ler which he always had beon In the
past. It was as if he stood upon the
threshold of a new and startling free
dom, but thus far had hesitated to
•tep definitely Into it. Broadway re
garded him almost with affection. No;
certainly; Mrs. Gerard was not with
him.
"Well, here I am," the erstwhile
perfect serving man announced. '1
auppose you thought you were never
going to see me again."
"Hello, Rankin. When did yon get
la?"
"Just now. I've a gTeat deal to tell
>*ra, Mr. Jones."
"What detained you?"
Hankin, looking at the young ladlee.
did not at once reply in detail. It was
evident that there were some partic
ulars to be divulged which he wished
Broadway's ears alone to hear. "It
was necessary.''
"Why didn't you send me aome
rword?"
"I can exlpain all that."
"Girls, will you excuse us?" Broad
way asked, and as they nodded went
•lowly down # upon the lawn with Ran
kin toward a clump of cedars. It had
been planted in a circle, a favorite and j
funereal form of lawn decoration in 1
those latitudes, 9nd in the solemn
apace inclosed there was, he knew, a
garden seat. "Just a few momenta,"
Broadway pleaded as he went with
Hankin toward this deep seclusion.

All right." Curiosity consumed
the maidens. All this seemed exceed
ingly exciting to them. But, after all,
they were not sorry for an opportunity
£o talk alone for a moment.
Broadway waa • very anxious, but
Kankln said no word until they were
■within the leafy chamber. Even after
they had reached Its solitude Broad
iway had to urge:
"WeO, come on; what's the news?"

swered hesitantly.

wife and daughter interpreted as
1 "ditto."
"Charge it" comes as naturally to
the lips of his wife and daughter as
' "Da-da" or "Ma-ma" comes to the
' lips of a babe. It is as if Mrs. Ap
-1 pleton and Daysey Mayme were
French dolls, and every time they
1 entered a store some clerk rushed
1 forward with an armful of goods, and
punched them in the middle, and im
mediately, "charge it," fell in me
chanical precision from their lips.
It is not surprising, therefore, that
this tendency to charge everything
to Lysander John has at last added
: humiliation to his financial distress.
They were at a dinner party. One
: of those affairs so exceedingly proper
1 that the wine took on the color of
' a stained glass window in a church,
and every sentence was breathed
1 like a prayea The bishop, in unc
tuous tones, had told of an incident In
a charge he had two years before,
and the word "charge" had set Mrs.
Lysander John's mind off on an ab
sentminded trail.
"We found the babe in a basket
at my vestry door one morning," said
the bishop, "and I will never rest
till I find the man at whose door to
1 lay the charge."
"Charge It," murmured a woman's
voice above tho stillness that fol-
I lowed, "to my husband, Lysander
I John Appleton."

'
Broadway was ail the more Impa
tient "Well, tell me; tell me! What
did she say? How did you get rid ol
her?"
"I—l didn't get rid of her. sir."
; "What? Where did you leave her
then?"
"I—didn't leave her, sir. I've been
with her ever since."
"Where is she now?" asked Broad
way timorously, his voice weakening.
"She's here, sir."
This was terrifically shocking. The
worst had come to pass then—those
fears which were so bad, that they
had been put aside as utterly unthlnfe
able. "She came back with you?"'
There was a look of horror on the face j
of Jackson Jones.
"Yes, sir."
His master's wrath rose. "You idiot! j
What did you let her do that for?"
Rankin spoke slowly and reluctant- j
ly. "She insisted that she must see j
you and talk with you, sir."
Now rose a soul in wild revolt. "I |
won't see her! I won't talk to her!" !
"But she's right outside the hedge,
sir. You must see her!"
«I_"
"Oh, she's perfectly reconciled, air;
believe me—"
j Here was a shock as pleasant as
4he other had been terrible. It was
almost too good to be true. "Recon
ciled! You mean she understanda
that I—"
"Oh, yes, sir. She's already sent
out a denial of her engagement to
you."
His hearer could have rent the air I
with shouts of joy, but did not. He
only asked inanely: "Has she?"
"Yes, sir." Now Rankin once more
hesitated. "In the form, sir, of—er—
another announcement."
This nearly stunned his master.
"You mean she's engaged to someone
else?"
"Yes, sir; she's going to marry the
earl of Cortland."
The recently harassed youth bright
ened. Was life to be entirely smooth
and joyous after all. instead of only
partly merry, with the balance turned
into a tragedy by his ancient "Sweet
heart, dearie?" "The earl of Corfc
land!" he exclaimed.
'Tes, sir; vlll you see her, sir? I
think it's best for all concerned."
"You're sure, are you? It's not a
dream, or anything like that? She I
isn't trying to trap me?"
"No. sir. May I ask her to come in? i
She's just behind the hedge."
"Did Bob see her?"
"No; he was so busy talking with !
his father, sir, that he did not recog- I
nixe us as we passed. Seems to be !
most earnest, sir, his father."
"Rankin, if you're certain, bring her '
in. But if—"
*Tm quite certain, sir."
Jackson waited for them near the
entrance to the verdant circle. He 1
thought it better not to go back to
the honse. Even if the lady was qnlte
reconciled there still might be some
details of her conversation which he
would not care to have heard by the
girls—especially one of the girls.
Almost Immediately Rankin re
turned with Mrs. Gerard, not only
walking by hia aide, but clinging to
his arm. Her voice did not sound
warlike as she greeted Broadway.
How do yon do, Jackson?" she said
quietly.
"How do yon do, Mrs. Gerard V
"Has Rankin told you?"
"Yea, Mrs. Gerard; Rankin haa told
me."

| straight skirt that is quite separate that
I can be attached to an under waist or to
I a belt. The under waist means perfect
1 freedom and comfort, holding the 6kirt

a shield. The loose blouse belted and the
shorter blouse drawn up at the waist line
; give reallv quite different effects yet there
' is only the one garment, shorter in one
case and longer in the other. It will be
seen at a glance that such a frock can be
; made of one material throughout or of
contrasting ones. Mothers who have
remodelling under consideration will be
glad of the two materials and, whenever
they arc selected harmoniously, the result
is sure to be a good one.
For the 12 year size, the blouse will

LESSON XI—PART IV.
PHYSICAL CULTURE. *
A Veteran Actress.
The veteran actress. Sarah Bernhardt,
' born In 1846. Is a wonderful example of
the effect of well-directed physical exer
cises on the body. Madame Bernhardt's
body is still young and lithe In its move
ment: it is not the physique of a young
Kirl. but It is far from being the physique
that we associate with a woman past
sixty. She has a perfect carriage. She
has never allowed any accumulation of,
flesh on any part of her body and she can j
play young roles today simply because 1
her body can still respond to youthful
enthusiasm. She is the example of a wo- ]
man who has never deviated one gioment '
from the laws of physical health. She
has always been a great believer in mas
sago. She has fenced a great deal, an ex- !
cellent exercise for keeping the limbs sup
pi? and the movements quick. Bhe has
treated her physique intelligently, under- |
standing what It needed, building up
when necessary and reducing excess flesh
as soon as there was any hint of its ap
pearance.
Bad Hablta.
As Madame Bernhardt has always
trained her body since youth she has had
no bad habits to overcome. She is an
example of a physical training that never
lets up." At the same time hers is not
a temperament or physique inclined to
grow very stout. What she has to com
bat as years go on Is stiffness—lack of
grace or vigor. Women who do not ac
cumulate flesh as they grow older are apt
to think this fact sufficient to give them
a youthful appearance. This is not al
ways so: there is a stiff, angular middle
age quite as unlovely as too much fat. At
this period there Is also a tendency to
wards rounding the back, dropping the
figure into the waistline, becoming
shorter and less erect—all bad habits that
can be avoided by proper, regular physi
cal exercises.
The Young Housekeeper,
To suggest physical culture to tha
housekeeper and mother may seem at
first almost cruelty, the adding of an
other burden to an already too full day
and to muscles already overtaxed. Yet
this busy, hard-worked housewife does
need a certain amount and kind of physi
cal culture to bring 'gor and elasticity to
her movements, and to exercise I mated
muscles so they may aid and help out
those which at present seem too much
used.
She can at least devote a few minutes
each day to restful physical culture. It
she can do no more, night and morning,
let her go through the series of breathing
exercises outlined In Lesson X. This will
accomplish at least two things: Invigorate
the blood so that the bodily tissues are
promptly renewed, and teach correct
poise so that she gets profit and not
weariness from her dally tasks. House
work Is excellent physical culture, If It
Is properly done.
