H, MILLER. WHAT JEAN SAW. Jean is 20 and pretty, but her ideas about what is and is not proper are Just as positive as they could be if she were 40 and plain. She came home from Mackinac Isl and on one of the big steamers last week without a sign of a chaperon or escort of any kind. The first morning out she buttoned her brown jacket, pinned her brown cap te her brown curls and started for a brisk walk on deck. Twenty times around the boat was her pro- gramme and her path carried her past crowds of people snuggled in chairs with their feet on the rounds of ether chairs, chatting, reading, dreaming. She saw them all in the mass lament- ing their general indolence in a strict- ly impersonal fashion until, the first time round, she came on two persons sitting near the stern of the boat, who caught her attention in a differ ent way. They were in a retired nook on the sunny side, aloof from every one else but equally aloof from each other as far as companionship went. The girl —an attractive little figure in dark blue, with a roseleaf complexion un- der a white corduroy cap—had placed her chair so that its back was em- phatically turned to the man, who was to all appearances an intruder in her cozy corner. The wretch that he was sat there with his cap pulled over his eyes, a book held upside down in his bands and his impertinent gaze fixed on the pink ear and fluffy back hair of the girl who was trying to ignore him. All this Jean saw in one quick glance as she hurried past and it made her blood boil. She decided not to stop at once, however. The following pictures this couple made for her horrified contsm- plation as she came upon them time after time in her rounds of the deck: 1. Girl intent on studying a pass- ing barge. Man intent on studying girl. 2. Man picking up comb that has slipped from the girl's back hair. Girl receiving it coldly, blind to his smile and lifted cap. 3. Man leanng forward to gaze with laughing appeal into girl's face. Girl flushing indignantly, twisting away and fairly hunching her shoul- der, in disdain of his attentions. 4. Man suddenly thrusting his book —right side up now—under girl's eyes, while his finger marks a certain passage. Girl glancing down at it in- voluntarily and the next instant scorn- fully looking the other way. 5. Man, with mischievous incol- ence, moving his chair so that it di- rectly faces girl Girl haughtily changing the position of hers so that its back is toward the man once more. 6. Girl gathering up her belongings as if to go. Man catching her by the hand. Girl lingering. “Ou, I ought to stop it!” thought Jean, as she march- ed on. 7. Girl seated again, though with reluctant manner, not resisting. 8. Man with girl’s hand in his. Girl with eyes downcast. Man murmuring something earnest and continuous. Jean had not been around the boat twenty times, but after she passed that last tableau she felt that in the interests of propriety = something must be done. If that young girl didn’t know enough to behave by her- self some one would have to help her! Jean was tingling with the reform- er’s courage as she neared the couple on the tenth round. She came up be- nind them as noisly as she could. She stopped and tapped the railing with her toe; she coughed. They were deaf and blind. The shameless man had an arm around the unspeakable girl and the next minute—he—yes, he actually kissed her! And she let him! Jean stood paralyzed. Before she had come to her senses voices sound- ed behind her. Two young women were approaching, making noise enough for six. Yet that oblivious man’s arm never even changed its place. To Jean's amazement, one of liveliest girls stepped up and tapped him on the shoulder. “Excuse the interruption, Mr. Van- dermede,” she said, mischievously, “put I want to introduce my friend to your wife. Miss Aatkinson, Mrs. Van- dermede.” Vandermede jumped up. Mrs. Van- dermede, released, straightened her white corduroy cap and bowed se- renery. Vandermede placed chairs for the newcomers. Then Jean heard him remark laughingly: “We're not often ¢o sentimental as you found us, Miss Atkinson, but I've just had an awful time making up wich my wife. She got angry with me about two hours ago because I in- sisted 'on coming into the stateroom and starting a frolic with the baby just when she had him almost asleep. 1 thought for awhile she'd never speak to me again.” From Cabinet to Senate. The U. S. Senate has among its members five former Cabinet officers. They are Senators Teller of Colorado, who was Secretary of the Interior un- der President Arthur; Alger, Secre- tary of War under President McKin- ley; Proctor, Secretary of War under President Harrison, Elkins, who was Secretary of War under President Harrison, and Knox, Attorney General under President Roosevelt. A Designing Rascal. An English thief was arrested the other day whose method was to in- duce little boys to take off their shoes in order to run a race, and leave him in charge of the shoes. When they returned, breathless, he and the shoes were gone. THEIR CORRESPONDENCE. “You'll write often, won't you?” asked young Walbank as he deposited a box of candy, a half-dozen maga- zines and a late novel in the seat op- posite that in which a certain young woman had settled herself for the journey. “Why, I'll be glad to write,” she re turned, confidently. “Rockdale is the dullest place in the world and the Fosters—father's old friends, whom I am to visit—are the quietest people imaginable. I'll have heaps of time for being literary. Probably all my friends will be deluged with es- says on the beauties of rural life.” “Reading your letters will ‘be next best thing to seeing you,” declared the young man. ‘ Then the young woman remarked that she wished he would go before the train started, as it always made her nervous to see any one swing off a moving car. She let her small silk- gloved hand rest in his for the mer- est moment and then shoved him gently in the direction of the door. “Thank you so much for all your kindness,” she said. He reluctantly backed out of the car, only to appear at her window and renew his request for letters—plenty of them-—during the dreaded two weeks, when the city would be one of the desert spots of the earth. The young woman, whose name was Ethel Gascoigne, did write to him the very next day. It happened to be rainy and she discovered a fountain pen hidden in her box of candy. She rather enjoyed using the pen. But the following day the sun rose clear, the weather was fine and she began a series of discoveries regarding the possibilities of Rockdale that kept her busy thereafter. B8he found that the hamlet had attractions of its own. Despite the fact that it was seven miles off the railroad and there was not a summer hotel in the county, there was at least one other summer visitor in the neighborhood. . He, too, was young and sufficiently attractive. A large white umbrella, easel, palette and the life were the badges of lis calling. He happened to be painting the beauties of the noisy little creek that crossed the Foster farm. Miss Gascoigne’'s face and form thereafter went into divers sketches of country scenery. In consequence there was really no time for more let- ters to the unhappy young man in town. By reason of which young Walbank grew nervous and fretful. After the tenth day of this pleasant idling Ethel was awakened late in the night by a tremendous pounding on the great oaken door of the house. She slipped into her dressing gown and ran to the head of the stairs to listen. Mr. Foster, arrayed in an ex- tremely unconventional costume, was opening the door. “Mother,” he called, in a shaky voice, “it's a telegram. Bob Ames fetched it over and he wants a dollar for the job. Bring one out of the wal- let in my drawer. Yon don’t s'pose anything's the matter with Belle or the baby, do you, mother?” “Now, father, don’t you be scared,” said Mrs. Foster, putting in a hasty appearance. ‘Just wait till I get my glasses and I'll read it to you. You'd better ask Bob to wait. Maybe there'll be something for him to do.” “Why, it ain’t for you, Mrs. Foster,” called Bob. “It's for Miss Ethel Gas- coigne. Ain't she staying with you?” At this Ethel ran downstairs and joined the excited little group in the hall. “Be calm, dear,” said Mrs. Foster. “Probably it ain’t anything terrible at 211, though maybe your mother’s got one of them heart attacks she had once before. Shall I read it to you?” “I can read it if you will hold the candle a little nearer.” Ethel tore open the soiled yellow envelope that had been carried seven miles over dark and rough country roads. “I hope it ain't your father,” said Mr. Foster, anxiously, as she crumpled the bit of paper in her hand. “No, it's not from father. It's—Iit’s from a friend who wanted—some in- formation. I am so sorry that you were all disturbed. Good night again,” she said in confusion, as she fled to her room. She lighted her lamp and, smooth- ing out the telegram, read it ‘once more: _ “What's wrong? Why don’t you write?—FRANK WALBANK.” “Poor boy!” she murmured, blow- ing out the light and creeping into bed. She dreamed then that the art- ist was painting her portrait in a white satin gown, over whose folds was falling a filmy lace veil. John Doe and Richard Roe.

Bhe in a pale blue negligee, fortified with a box of bonbons and the latest novel, which she drops as her caller enters. “Well, I wondered why you hadn't been over before. Oh, just back from the mountains yesterday? What? Oh, of course—thank you, dear. Yes, I knew as soon as you heard of my en- gagement to Dick you'd be pleased. Yes, I'm very happy. It's such com- fort to feel you are finally settled at last and don’t have to fuss about trying to make up your mind. What? Oh, that old idea’s all nonsense—of course, a.girl with any sense consid- ers the matter sensibly from all points of view—only a little idiot would fall madly in love with a man who couldn’t keep her in gloves, to say nothing of a trip to Europe in the summer and Florida in the winter. “And, of course, I'm very fond of Dick—very. He really has charming ways—and then every other girl in the crowd was simply crazy to get him, so, naturally, I was glad to show them they were back numbers. “Dick? Yes, he's really terribly de- voted to me. He has a case of true love in its worst form. It does make me laugh sometimes. Only it's rath- er annoying when I have on a new frock calculated to make all the other girls green with envy and the men speechless with admiration to have him . insist on dragging me off to the conservatory or some other se- cluded spot and wasting hours there with no one to look at me. “What's that? You think I should be glad and proud to have him desper- ately in love with me? Where have you spent the summer, to pick up such hackwoods ideas? I'm going to get married because it's time to settle down and I don't pine to be thought a social failure. “I'm going to be good to him—you needn't worry. It's easy enough to keep a man contented and thinking you never have a waking thought ex- cept for him. I'm really surprised that Dick should turn out the sort of a man who expects that—I always fancied him too sophisticated—but if vou could see the way he hangs on my faintest word and hunts up things to do for me! It's really very pleas- ant. Come to think of it, you ought to know—was it three years ago or four that Dick fancied he was in love with you? Though, of course, it wasn’t at all the same as his feeling for me. “What's that? What about Kenneth White? Why, Bess, I really think you might—of course I know you didn’t think—well, to be honest, I've put him out of my mind entirely. I never think of him. That's why I was so— so—startled when you mentioned his He, comfortably arrayed in dressing gown before a luxurious wood fire, with a plentifully supplied table close at hand, as his best friend enters. “Hello, old man, help yourself to what you want and take that chair over there. Yes, it's true—your ears have not deceived you. It's Richard to the halter this time—and very soon at that. She is the loveliest creature I ever gazed at and, Jove, the air of her! Just the kind of a girl a man would like to have to sit at the other end of his dinner table. “Yes, I know there’s breakfast to be considered, but it'll turn all right. When a feliow finds he is the whole world to a nice girl, that she cares so deeply for him, it makes him sit - up and think. Sometimes I feel guilty because I can’t feel the divine mad- ness I used to—once—but I made up my mind from the beginning Kittle should never know that I didn’t. “I don’t know why. It was so long ago—four years. I must have grown old since then, for I can only wonder in a stupid amazement—yes, and envy at the memory of that affair. “No, I'll be honest for once—I loved Bess better than I'll ever love another woman. I'd have made up that quar- rel ‘ih a minute if she hadn't stayed abroad so long and frozen me when she got back. She couldn't have cared. Haven't you ever noticed what beautiful hands she has—and her way of tilting her chin? Oh, it’s all over now, of course. It’s far better, any- way, for a man to chose his wife caim- ly, sensibly, judicially. It’s time for me to settle down. “Yes, that’s a picture of Bess over the mantel; see that line, the curve of her neck? I keep it as I would any beautiful picture. To be sure— there's Kitty’s latest in the frame on the library table there. Isn't she a stunner? And a very dear girl be- sides. As I said, her affection for me positively humbles me. I'm going to be good to her, I tell you. Have an- other cigar?” West Salisbury Feed Co.
