The Choice
Brenton Strang stood motionless Id
' dosrw?y cf his modest frame
tiiuit, staring With unseeing eyes out
over the blue waters of the Pacific.
Less than a mile away the smoke
curled upwards rotn the fishing town
of Kakiak. and far away to the east
ward, acrosa the shimmering stretches
of the strait, :ose In dim grandeur
the glaciers and snow-clad mountains
of the mainland.
' Close at hand the wide fields were
green with bleb meadow grasses,
where the cattle graxcJ in blissful
peace, unheeding the golden beauty
of the daisies, the sapphire grace of
the blue bells, and the dainty blushes
of the wild roses, making a rich riot
of color and perfume. For this Is the
warm garren of that chill north coun
trya bit of the gracious southland
that nature baa transplanted to these
Islands of the sea, and carefully nur
tures ..no blesses with warm ocean
currents, aunny skies and soft brasses.
8trang frowned Impatiently at hla
thoughts, and turned on the threshold.
He stepped to the low carved mantel
and took In his hands the photograph
of a fair-faced girl. Her eyes smiled
straight Into hla sombre ones, but
Mil unsmiling he laid the picture
down and tramped restlessly back and
forth, the frown on his forehead
growing ever deeper.
He needed no visible reminder of
the face Mto which be had looked
that afternoon when Lollta, the daugh
ter of the white superintendent of the
canneries by his Aleut wife, bad walk
ed beside him on the shore .
There had been a short, perilous
moment when he had caught her In
his arms to save Ler from the unsus
pected quicksand that had aucked
her feet downwam. But In that brief
instant her arms had held bim tightly
and he had seen In her dark eyea a
strange light that told Its tale of
warning.
The girl was young and utterly
unlearned. Her slim, supple girlhood
appealed to him, and she had become
a part of the free, open-air life he
had led for two years. But Brenton
Strang was a true man at heart, and
be faced bis problem with unflinching
candor.
Should ' e woo and wed the girl
half Indian and almost wholly pagan
with her passionate love of nature
In the wild northern land; should he
bring her into hla home which he had
builded with the thought of another
woman alwaya In his heart, and so
settle down to the vast farm.ng life
that opened before him?
Or should he go back to civilisation
and to the girl whose face watched
him from the simple gold frame? She
belonged to the life behind him, her
dainty, almost fragile beauty found
Its rightful setting In the luxury to
which she had been bom. And yet!
There had been a time two abort
weeka of camp life when they bad
lived very near to the heart of the
world, and the bays had glided by In
the deep and true channela of life.
He looked around hla empty home,
picturing her there, as he had so often
done. Not until tbia hour had he
realized how closely he had wrought
the thought of her Into his life.
Three months before he had writ
ten her of bis decision to remain per
manently at Kadiak, aave for an oc
casional winter In the South. The
old life wtaleb they had known togeth
er had lost Its grip upon him, and the
new, broader, saner life held him fast
He needed her and ao he had told her,
at the same time leaving her free to
choose.
Weeks had passed and no word had
come, and hla heart and uome were
very lonely. Lollta's youth charmed
and tempted him, but the love of the
other woman atlll tiled hla soul.
Again be took u- the picture and
studied Its silent beauty.
"Virginia." be whispered, "why have
you deserted me, when I love you so?"
The face of the Indian girl had van
ished from his heart, and the fate
Southern woman reigned aupreme
once more. With grave tenderness he
kissed the sweet lips and spoke to her
again.
"It ahall be the beet or nothing,
dear." he told her, and placed the lit
tle frame on the stelf.
Then he went to. the open door, and
his eyes dwelt aadly and calmly oa
the glory of the scene before htm.
Suddenly he saw a woman's figure
coming swiftly Along the road from
Kadiak.
His breath came fast, his pulses
bounded, then bis heart stood still
with a great Joy. He brushed bis hand
across bis eyea, aa If to aweep away
che dream.
But the reality of his hope was
drawing near, for he beheld Virginia
coming toward him, half-running, her
eheeka glowing above her dark furs,
her lips parted eagerly, and her gray
eyea alight
He dashed toward ber with out
stretched arms.
"Virginia, Virginia," he repeated
over and over again and even she
wondered at the solemn tenderness of
his voice
"I came to you. Brent," she said,
shyly as soon aa she could speak. "I
bad to since you wouldn t come back
to me."
8he smiled tremulously, but Brenton
Strang drew -.er closer In his arms
and answered reverently:
"Thank Ucd. you came. Virginia."

When Entertaining.
In giving a series of luncheons or
dinners there Is always a temptation
to have the same dishes and to pick
out those which the cook can prepare
particularly well. I think this Is the
universal experience of the givers
ot small dinners. Now It happened
to me to be Invited several times to
the same courses, and I waa remind
ed of the children's verse, "Same
old soup, same old fish; same old
sauce In the aame old dish." In or
der to avoid this with my own guests,
I have a little book In which I write
down the namea of the persons entertained;-
with the dates and the
menus In full. Whenever anyone Is
to be Invited, I look this over care
fully to see that I am not cullnarily
repeating myself for the benefit of
the same persons. It serves another
purpose aa well, for a comparison of
the lists of dishes which have been
possible of accomplishment In my
household la useful In suggesting
new arrangements of the same old
things.
No More Rice at Welding.
Paper slippers and rose petals are

Detail to replace the rice are the
real thing thousands of petals strip
ped by band from pink roses. The
slippers and rose petals are heaped In
great bowls In the hall. When the
biide and bride-groom emerge, in
stead ot being cannonaded with
co(irse rice and old shoes, a pink
and silver cloud of rose petals sad
little shining slippers envelopes
them.
To Save Stooping.
A pair of diminutive sawborses
on which to elevate a trunk w-ea
packing, Is of the greatest help In
relieving the strain on one's back,
and makes a very acceptable part of
the guest-room's appointments.
To Sprinkle Clothes.
By turning the garden hose to a
line spray, and using It to damren
clothes while tbey are yet on ths

they can be taken down and rolled
or folded up, ready for the Iron.

The Other Girl
By MRS. FLORENCE DtVOE.
Dolly Heath walked quickly up and
dowu the pretty room, blind to Its
beauties, and oeaf to the telephone
bell ringing furiously In the hall. Her
eyes were full of tears of anger as she
mimicked, "I won't be at home very
early to-night, dear, so oon't wait up
for me, will you?" "How much, how
much be must love me! Love, In
deed, but I suppose after one has
been married for two years she should
begin to expect her husband's love to
grow cool. Love! I don't believe he
Is capable of 1-ve. I don't think lit
ever loved me anyway. It was prob
ably because I was good looking that
he married me. Why, to-night Is thi
second time this week that he Is going
to leave me alone, and last week he
was out two nights, too."
She dropped onto a convenient
couch and erteu her anger turning
to sorrow at the terrible calamity
soon to befall her. Already sue saa
herself left alone for life, to die ol
sorrow, by her wicked husband, who
If ahe had but known It, was at thai
very moment buying a beautiful collii
dog for her. Dolly set out for a long
walk to think the mater over calmly
The cool wind refreshed her, and she
started out, deciding to walk to the
coast about two miles from ber
bouse.
Two nights week! Yes, that was
Just the way they all began, when ther
no longer loved their wives. She was
walking fast now, an-' the city etreu

footpaths. And the foolish little If.

construction to everything Jack bad
Eaid for weeks.
The road led to a cliff looking out
on the Atlantic, one of those coast
scenes that Maine ia famous for. Dol
ly loved the sea and she stood for
some time glorying in the sight ol
the huge waves beating against the
rocks. A child's voice aroused her
aud turning she saw a baby of about
tour years, coming towards her a.

from his mother's hold and bad reall)

"How happy you must be," said she
You see, I know who you are, and I
often see you i.nd your husband drtv

Dolly turned, amazed at the bitter-
doss in her voice.
"But aren't you happy, too?" she
asked. "You have the baby to make
you still' happier."
The other girl brushed the dark hair
Into place under her scarlet tam-o-shanter
and looked steadily at the
whirling water.
'Happy?" she said at list, "Han

didn't know tt until It was too late
until It was all over. You see well
my husband left me. But I have never

that be would lome day come back tc

Dolly was silent before this great
trouble. What could she say? She
tried to Imagine what It would be h
Jack ahould g. away for two year.
She thought of the wretched weekr
she had spent the year they had beet
engaged, and Jack bad left ber for a
two weeks' fishing trip. Her angei

girl waa left, perhaps for life, while
she, Dolly, bad been angry wltb thi
best fellow In the world because hi
had stayed out for two paltry nights
She wondereu what the other gir'
would think of ber pettiness. And sh
went up to ber and put both arm
about her.
"How I wish 1 might help you," she
said slowly.
When Jack Heath arrived home thai
nlg'ut at the fearfully late and un
earthly hour of 11, he was embraced
and nearly smothered to death by a
bewitching little vision, arrayed In
the most fetching and likewise most
expensive of gov-ns. The pretty eye
lashes were still wet with tears.
"Wll, this Is a One reward for stay
lng out so late," he cnuckled. "Guess
I'll do it jvery night."
"Dear old Jack, you don't know
how mucL I love you, honey." said
Dolly, "thanks V the other glrk"
Heath aat down In the Morris chair
and held out bis arms to bis wife.
"Suppose you come and tell me
then," he said.

ly as might be when a long-eared jack
rabbit jumped up from the roadside
aud started down the road ahead ol

voice that quavered with fright,
