PEG'S s t PINEAPPLEf I CHEESE By Edith Sessions Topper ♦ CotitritfM. 1402. t» Ulth v\Sun> luw-u ¥ girls." said Peg as she laid an apoplectic parcel on I the dining room table "there is probablv the finest pine apple cheese 011 the isle of Manhattan." "Pineapple cheese!" A chorus of dis may ami derision arose. "Why pine apple? Why not brie or caniembert or"— "Oh. I know." said Peg loftily, "that >ou swells." with a bitt< r emphasis on the word, "affect all kinds of evil smelling cheeses with your after din ner oitlee; but. as 1 am plain and dem ocratic in 111 v tast.s. I buy pineapple cheese wherewith to regale myself when 1 come in worn, jaded and faint with hunger after my day's toil." Then she hung up her sailor, cut off the load of her pineapple cheese, scooped out a chunk and proceeded to eat it like a piece of cake. Meantime we three jeered. As Peg stood there greedily devour ing her cheese she did not look much like a girl whose heart was broken. She was plump, rosy and sturdy. She curled her hair. She was as different ad |H.ssible from the accepted type of lovelorn maiden wasting away to a premature grave from disappointed love. Vet we girls knew all about the dreadful quarrel Peg had with Jack Sh' ppanl. a quarrel that broke off her engagement and sent Peg out into the world to s«-ek a career We four girls Cra. e, Eleanore, Mar garet. otherwise peg. atid the writer have a tiny little box of a flat uptown where wi l play at housekeeping. We live In a dialing dish, and the tire es cape is our refrigerator. Every week or so we arc visited l>\ a big. good 11a tured officer who tries to look stern when he states he will surely be obliged to arrest us if we do not keep our tire escajw clear of birdcages, vegetables, fruit and flowerpots. Then there ensues a spasm of tidy ing up. the plants and birds are ar ranged in the "drawing room." as we call the tiny r»*eeption room, the vege tables are stored in the kitchen closet, and the fruit is heaped ostentatiously on the sideltoard. Put some way. grad ually. demoralization again creeps up on us. tbe fire escape allures and beck ons us and flaunts its attractions as a storehouse before us, and we again succumb to its fascinations Theref »re we were not greatly sur prised when Peg. after satisfying her healthy young appetite, proceeded to place her cheese just outside the win dow 11 j ton the tire escajie. "Peg. you are crowding the refriger ator," objected Orace. "IM you want a call from Dan Flynn?" asked Kleanore. Dan Flynn. it may be remarked in passing, is the policeman who period bally cleans out our refrigerator. "Dan Flynn won't see it tonight, said Peg calmly, "and I may eat the rest of it for breakfast." Tills silenced us. There really was no argumen: to that proposition. We adjourned to the drawing room, and while (irace prepared an article on "How to Turn the Hack Breadths of an Old Silk Skirt" for a ladies' maga zine and Kleanore ran over the new soug she was to introduce in her next role I gossijied with Peg about the new comers who that day had taken the flat under us. "There can't be any women." 1 re marked. "for there wasn't a rocking chair, a piano or a sewing machine, and there were whole cases of stuff Incidental to the accursed sex carried In." It Is by this term we are accustomed to sjM-ak of men in Peg's presence. We fed that it is due her. "Then there wen* rifl<-s and walking sticks and clubs galore," I continued. ■* whole arsenal. I counted all sorts of weapons except a Oatling gun. 1 an they l>e social highwaymen, do you think?" "All men," said Peg oracularly, "are In a measure social highwaymen. \ cry likely this is an organized band of cut throats. The details assuredly are sus picious. 4 irace, you know the chief of police,l Itelieve.' "I Interviewed him once," drowsily came from Grace, who had just ar rived at the sponging and pressing stage of her article. "Very well; you know him, then," said Peg severely. "1 think you should call on him and ask him to look up these creatures and see whether four unprotected women are safe 111 living so near them." Wouldn't Dan Flynn do as well as the chief?" asked Kleanore, lazily hum ming over the last bar of her song. "You see. Peg, the head of the depart ment is a rather busy man.and as Dan t-1 > 111> i» on our visiting list it might l»e quit** as convenient, uiiglitn tit? But Peg made no answer to this idle banter She sat engrossed in deep thought. Her blue eyes grew larger iind dreamier. We all watched her with un ! sgui*"*! admiration She was *o al-oiiiluably pretty. I made sure that she was wandering through the maze of memory with her lost love and ventured to rouse her. hoping she would rehearse some ro mantic chapter for one's delectation. "Peg." l asked softly, "of what, dear, are you thinking?" "I was wondering." said she. with a little start, "whether these miscreants iM-low us would st« I my pineapple cheese." In the middle of the night we were a roil-<d by a fearful <Ta-h in the kitch en <irace. Kleinore and I rushed I Hl* -ally about confident that bur VLARS WERE U|M>II us After scrambling f>»r matclie- ,omc minutes with cold chills running down our sp ;i» s we at iii-t .of a lifcht only to d .o\.r Peg WMiideimg attout ill her nightgown, looking ver> sheepish and nur ng a broken head "I got lip to s.-e if the pineapple da*-e was safe." sli • explained, "all 1 fell oxer the • lotheshorse. which some driveling imttccilc had left directly in my path." We got lier to tn-d, where she re Mailed a day or so in companv with vinetar and brown pajier. smelling salts and Mil de cdogue. Meant. me til • r«-1 of IIS often met our new lie ghliors on the stairs. They certainly did not look like criminals. On the contrary, they were decidedly pr»*|a«ss< »s ng in appearance. But Peg jH-rslsted in l«elieving them to l>e housi breaker* and to have special designs upon her pet cheese, which remained upon the tire as the eagle glaix-e «.f Dan Flynn had not yet fallen upon it. I hie afternoon Peg, being quite re co\ered from tier fall and dressed in her moot becoming tea gown, sat read ing a reprehensible novel occasionally looking uu to state the flnuiiHul loss her illness had been, tc. say nothing (if licr loss to Hit' artistic world, for Peg did nice little black and white sketches for some of the newspapers. Suddenly she threw down her novel with a sigh. "Judith 17 hungry." she announced. "I think I'■. have a whack at that pineapple eheesc A bit of bis cuit, a glass of milk and that cheese will save my life. Pome 011: we'll pick in the kitchen." She dragged me into the kitchen and. telling me to get the milk and biscuit, leaned half way out the window to reach the cheese, which stood cheek by jowl upon the tire escape with Klca uore's parrot. At that moment a man's voice floated up through the soft summer air. "Look at that lire escape, Harry. I tell you it's an outrage the way some people crowd their tire escapes. Looks like a tenement. Why in the mischief don't they have a refrigerator? I'll bet my head there's an old tnaid upstairs. A poll parrot and a pineapple cheese! Well, I'm blessed:" 1 never could tell how it happened. Whether Peg's nerves were yet shaky from her illness or from rage at the impertinence of the critic below stairs 1 cannot say, but as she took up the cheese it slipped from her bands, shot through the opening and went down whack! bang! on the head of the man, who, leaning from his window, was looking up to condemn the condition of our decidedly disreputable tire escape. There was a horrified exclamation from Peg, a muttering as of distant thunder from below, a sweet implor ing, "Oh, I beg your pardon!" and Peg came in through the window, her pret ty face as red as tire and tears stand ing in the big blue eyes. "The beast!" she wailed. "I>id you hear him? And ice 40 cents a pound! As if we could help being poor! An old maid, indeed! I'll show him! And my cheese, my beautiful pineapple cheese! Don't talk to me! Judith. I could kill him! I wish it had knocked his handsome, wicked head right off his shoulders!" And, to my great amazement, pretty Peg sat down on a kitchen chair and wailed aloud. "As if he hadn't made ine trouble enough." she sobbed, "to come here to live, and dog my footsteps, and call me an old maid, and steal my cheese!" "Who. Peg, who?" 1 cried, almost shaking tier in my excitement. "Who? Why. who could it be but that abominable, detestable Jack Shep pard, dear old thing! No. no, Judith; I don't mean that. I hate him. Ide- It lunt Unit 11 whack! btiuj! on the head ut the man. sp'se him. A man has indeed sunk very low when he steals the bread out of his former sweetheart's mouth." "But, Peg. dear, it wasn't bread, and he didn't steal it. You dropped it, you know." "Well, he made me drop it with his nasty sneers about nil old maid. I wonder if he thinks he is the only man in the world. Anyway the parrot Is Kleanore's. and if you are my friend, Judith I"a vei sham, you will make it your business to let him know that fact before you are a day older." hi th< midst of this fusillade of wounded pride and dismay there came a pull at the bell. I opened the door. There stood Policeman Dan Flynn. "I must trouble yez, miss." he said gravely, "to take in the chaase an' the burrud. It don't look proper at all. an' I'm surprised 'hat (eddies like yez will persist in settin' the laws at ddianee." Hut Peg was before him like a whirl wind. "We'll take in Polly," she cried, "and, as for the cheese, it's already been taken in." "Not foive minutes since," said the officer reproachfully, "wid my own eyes did I see that chaase tlauntin' itself on yer lire escape." "Well, go and look 011 the tire escape below," laughed Peg hy-ti nearly "'1 he men who live downstairs, it seems, have not enough to eat or to do." pur posely raising her voice. "They've got my cheese, Mr. Flynn, and ii's 1 case of highway robbery, and I think i will go around to the station house and get out a warrant or something." Policeman Flvim looked at Peg in amazement. As for nnself, I could not speak for laughter. And, to cap the climax, at this moment up the stairs came a handsome fellow with a wick ed gleam in his'eyes and bearing on a silver platter the remains of Peg's ]line apple cheese. "Mr. Sli' ppard's compliments to Miss Seymour," he said, "and lie has sent home her cheese, lie begs she will count the pieces and see whether they are all here." With a scarlet face Peg shut the door upon Policeman Flynn and the young man, leaving the latter to explain the situation as best tie could to the officer. A burst of suppr<sM'd laughter from the hall told us that ail amusing and satisfactory explanation was being supplied "Never." said Peg. skimping a small foot "never will I recognize that des picable pet-on. Jack Sheppard. I call you to witness, Judith what I say." Then she retreated to her bedroom and shut the door oil the tragedy of her life. Nc\t dav I came hone- earl;.. As I let nnself In at the side door 1 was startled by a low murmur of voices coming from the drawing room, 'danc ing through the half drawn porlitres, I saw Peg in close conference with one of the miscreants from below stairs. ' I didn't want to take the bread from your mouth, sweetheart," he was say ing, "nor yet the cheese. I will be sat istied With the kisses." And then he helped himself.

Too mil' h of any particular food pre vents its noun-dung the body | Bunts, His Dog | By MARVIN DANA (5 Coj/|/rft/M, J Ml, Ijj Marvin Dana I T was remarkable that the entrance of one man sufficed to arrest the attention of the whole crowd as sembled in the chief saloon of Maysville, Ark., but the newcomer was a stranger whose appearance was calculated to provoke interest. He was tall and broad shouldered, and so much of his face as was visible beneath the gray sombrero was keen and resolute. The man was clad in a long frock coat of gray doth cut low on the breast, as was the waistcoat, to display an even ing expanse of tarnished linen. On the bosom of his shirt live splendid solitaire diamonds stood in stately per pendicularity, shining and glinting with a luxurious brilliancy that awed every beholder. 011 the lingers other jewels proclaimed the riches of their wearer, while from pocket to pocket of his waistcoat stretched a watch chain made of huge topazes. This gorgeous individual stared about him. seemingly oblivious of ihe impres sion his advent had created, then moved to a chair that chanced to be vacant near by. sat down, drummed loudly on the table with liis lists and cried in a vigorous voice: "Hi. barkeeper!" That functionary responded surlily, for lie was of a saturnine demeanor, "What ye want?" "I'm Jim Bunts from Texas, an' I'm u white man, an' I'm passiif through here, an', beiu' a sociable critter, I says to myself, says I, 'Let's liquor So If all ye galoots will name yer pizen I'll buy it fur ye. I'm takin' old rye myself. Let her go, Mr. Barkeeper. Here's what!" And Jim Bunts threw down a twenty dollar goldpiece on the table before him. There could be 110 question as to the immediate popularity acquired by the Texan. Each person in the crowd or dered the most expensive drink of which he could think, and when the •tranger followed up his first liberali ty by inviting his guests to renew liba tions at his expense the enthusiasm knew no bounds. The only exception to Bunts' admir ers was Lumpy, a gambler, one of the local "bad" men sitting at the same table, who, after having obtained mo mentary favor bv the purchase of one "drink around," now found himself forgotten before the prodigal hospital ity of the newcomer. The stranger ordered a third glass of whisky for himself, and then, as if in cidentally, bade the barkeeper till all the glasses, whereby a sensation was caused. Immediately after the glass of whisky had been set for him lbints reached his hand into a coattail pocket and produced therefrom a dog, which he placed with mingled fondnoss and pride upon the table before him. This animal was one of the small, hairless Mexican breed, a sort strange to most of those present, and strong curiosity was at once excited. Where fore the Texan indulged in a second address. "That 'ere dawg's named Itickets, 'cause 'e's never grown a mite since 'e was born, an' I've 'bout given up hope of 'is gettin' any more sizable. 111 "Throw up yer 'a mix!" He ain't much to look at, but 'e was give me by the handsomest woman what ever spent money, an' 1 love 'im as a sov'nur of her. We'll drink 'er health." Whereupon all Maysville chorused approbation of the Mexican hairless dog, and became lost in raptures over the Texan's inamorata. Bunts pushed his glass of whisky in front of Itickets and the dog proceeded to lap up the fiery spirits. "Ain't 'e intelligent? Well, some," his owner remarked complacently. Then he continued, "Au' now, bar keeper, set 'em up ag'in an' we'll drink the dawg's health!" But Lumpy, made dangerous by drink, exclaimed loudly: "I don't drink with 110 pup! An', what's more, I won't have 110 cur like that sittin' at table with me." As Lumpy ended, a change in Bunts' face warned him and he made a swift movement toward his hip. But the stranger was quicker. "Throw up yer 'ands!" said Bunts, and Lumpy instantly obeyed. Then the Texan gave him a homily. "Ye've insulted me an' also the wo man as gave me the pup, an' also the dawg. I ougliter shoot ye. I don't like yer face. But I'll give ye yer worthless life if ye'll ax me parding. Do ye apologize to me?" "I do." Lumpy hastened to say. "All' do ye apologize to the lady? Speak up louder." "Yes,'" Lumpy responded, raising his voice. "An' do ye apologize to the pup? Louder'" "I do," answered Lumpy, and his voice was a shout. "That's done, then. But no apolo gies C'II make a gent out of ye, an' I don't drink Ycpt with gents. So clear out. < let a scramble on ycrself, an' keep yer 'amis up." Lumpy, his hands held rigidly licav anward, rose and passed out into the street. When he had disappeared, the Texan laid the two revolvers on the table, one on either side of the dog. Tli'tl lie addressed till' com pa 11. \ "That dawg stays right there, ye bet! Name yer pizen, gents " Outside Lumpy relieved his feelings by some guttural oaths and set out for th<' worst drinking hole in town, when he knew he could lind the as sistance he wished There he held a whispered conversation with Scratch es, a burly desperado whose face had been slashed by a bowie His last words to this ruffian were; "Take the Kid with ye. He ain't so scary to look at as ye be." In the saloon the chair vacated by Lumpy had remained empty. Ihe crowd had a superstition against that seat, but as it was the only empty chair in the room it was natural that when two late coiners entered one should seat himself there, while the other half leaned, half sat on the tu l»le beside it. one of these two was Scratches; the other, a young, rather winsome faced man, was the Kid. Hunts, now jovially drunk, but in posse-sion of all his faculties, demand ed that they drink his health and that of Kiekets. lie waved his hand in in troduction toward the pup, which now showed signs of excess, for he swayed a little, and his red eyes blinked heav ily. He is a cute one," said the Kid plea s.i nt ly. Scratches grinned evilly and put out liis hand to pat the pup. Kiekets show ed his appreciation by a snort and a snap that brought a howl of pain from Scratches. "Playful, ain't he?" Bunts exclaimed and round with laughter. Scratches scowled, but controlled himself after a moment and tried to smile. But the Kid speedily ingratiated hint self with both Bunts and Kiekets, pat ting the dog without hurt, to his mas ter's delight. Interest in the stranger was now waning. Some of the men left the sa ioon and in the course of half an hour Scratches was able to possess himself jf the third chair. Ac this juncture the Kid insisted that the stranger should drink at his expense. "Three!" he called to the barkeeper. In a moment the drinks were on the table. The Kid seized one glass and passed it to Bunts. "There's yer liquor!" he cried cor dially. "Drink hearty." But the devoted Bunts could not for get his duty to Kiekets. He delayed a moment to set his glass before the dog. "Take a pull. Kiekets," he urged. The swaying dog picked up his ears at the smell of the spirits and dropped his nose into the glass. His greedy tongue darted once into the whisky and was withdrawn into his mouth. Once and only once that taste was enough. Kiekets stopped swaying, and his eyes opened wide. Then he. turned and stared reproachfully at Bunts and whined. "Now, that's the most curi's thing I ever seed!" the Texan exclaimed. "Never knew 'ini to turn up 'is nose before at good liquor. He's sick, that's what." There was a minute's silence, while Bunts sat eying the dog solicitously. Then suddenly an idea came to him. and lie laughed pleasantly. The next Instant his hands fell on the revolvers, and in a trice both men were covered. "But up yer 'amis!" ho cried for the second time that night. The crowd, startled, looked tip and saw Scratches and the Kid, their hands aloft, staring fearfully into the deadly tubes. Then Bunts, now almost sober under the stimulus of his idea, ad dressed the two: "Ye"re a nice pair of galoots! Strolled In 'ere with the plan of dosln' me with knockout drops an' then walkin' out wiili me an' then goin' through me! KhV Ilith! Well. I guess ve'd 'a' work ed it if it hadn't been for Kiekets. bless 'is little heart! 1 didn't tumble to yer skin game, an" I'd 'a' swallowed yer dope, but Kiekets ain't no such fool! One taste of them knockout drops was enough for 'im." lint Scratches had regained his nerve and now burst forth In protestations. "It's a lie! There ain't no knockout drops in that whisky of vers. I swear It." "Be ye sure?" questioned Bunts sar castically. "It's gospel truth I'm tellin' ye." "Well," Bunts retorted. "I'll believe the dawg quicker 'n I'll believe any ugly faced horse thief secli as ye be. But I'll give ye a chance to prove yer words, l>last ye. lake yer right 'and down slow to this glass of mine an' drink it." Then sis Scratches made 110 move ment to obey he exclaimed sharply: "Do as 1 say or I'll put a bullet through ye! Drink that whisky, an' if ye spill a drop I'll bore ye. Hurry!" Scratches" face grew white, but lie had no choice. Slowly he lowered one hand; more slowly still he raised the glass to his lips. There once again he hesitated until Bunts' command came harshly: "Drink!" At one gul|► Scratches swallowed the draft. "Now let me go," he said meekly. "Ye see it ain't hurt me none." "Ye jist sit right there an' keep yer 'ands up. an' that other sneakin' little cherub too. Why, gents," he contin ued to the crowd, "it was that there brat chucked the drops In my whisky. He'll be a nice one when he gets 'is growth, 1 don't think! But now we'll jist watch that there hyena that drunk what my hairless pup turned up 'is nose at." There was silence. The crowd had drawn close, waiting uxpectant for the issue. Scratches sat motionless, his hands aloft, blinking at the revolver. Little by little his ey«s blinked oftener and the lids lay shut longer A sudden trembling seized the man, and his arms shook like aspens. A few ix anrts more and the wretched crp.iture h*gan sway ing in his place. To and fro he swung dizzily ; then at last his form collapsed. He fell heavily to th» floor and lay there inert, unconscious. A hum of approval greeted the event. Rickets barked joyfully. Bunts ad dressed the Kid: "Now, ye miscr'ble infant, ye c'n drag off that pardner of vers! .list drag 'im outside, an' be quick about it. Ye'U be hanged some day, all right. Drag 'im out. He'll come round some time, I s'pose—worse luck!" When the Kid, unassisted, had drag ged his companion across the saloon and out of the door. Bunts again ad dressed the crowd: "Strikes me ye're got some curi's characters in yer village. But Kiekets usu'ly comes out on top inadawgQght, 'specially with me to back 'im.
