RS. WELLES looked at her four
daughters with an inquiring ex-
pression. They looked very well—
very pretty, one might say—although
their clothes were obviously last
year's style. The Welles family had
suffered reverses since the death of
the husband and father.
“What do you think of my plan?’
asked Mrs. Welles at last,
“It's awful,” groaned Madge. “I
never expected we would come to
keeping boarders.”
“And I particularly detest prunes,”
complained Cicely.
“Think of the hard work,” suggest-
ed Barbara, looking at her well-kept
hands.
“We might make it a pruneless
boarding house,” and Della went off
into a peal of merry laughter at her
own wit, but her charming face cloud-
ed at once as she saw the disappoint-
ment in her mother’s countenance.
Were those new lines on her mother’s
placid brow? Lines of care and wor-
ry—with four idle daughters? Della
stiffened in a ramrod way, that was
like her father.
“We can do it if we want to,” she
said bluntly. “We're too lazy for
words—all of our friends, rich and
poor, are working—none of us are
qualified to take up any special line
of work and taking paying guests is
respectable; we can keep our own
home, reserve some rooms out of this
big house for ourselves. Mother can
superintend everything, I can help the
cook in the kitchen, Molly and Bar-
bara can wait on table and take care
of rooms at first until we can afford
to keep another maid, and Cicely
shall keep all the accounts and sew
for the rest of us. Who will join the
league of workers?
With more or less reluctance they
all agreed, but Cicely, the clever
needle woman, pouted. “People make
such foolish jokes about prunes and
boarding houses—and oh, dear—I sup-
pose I must join, too!”

Della called them the “band of un-
willing workers,” but her enthusi-
asm soon whipped them into line with
the new enterprise, and they were en-
couraged by their friends.
Everything was planned in advance,
and every room was rented before
they were ready to receive “guests.”
The girls were happy. Mrs. Welles
was relieved of financial worry, and
money seemed to flow into the cash
box in a steady stream. Table board-
ers came from the neighborhood, and
the Welles’ place achieved a reputa-
tion.
For six months everything
well; never a word of complaint
reached the family, and never a prune
appeared upon the table.
Madge became engaged to a young
college professor and Cicely was sew-
ing on her sister's modest troussean.
Della, who called herself Cinderella,
was dubbed Cinders by the rest of the
family, became famous for her de-
licious pastry and sang like a thrush
over her work in the kitchen.
One day the singing stopped and
the singer dropped her pretty head.
One of the guests was going to leave—
and he had given no reason beyond
the fact that his mother needed a
change. Mr. Payton was young and
attractive. He worked in the local
bank and had a bright future. His
mother was a robust old lady whom
they all loved, but lately she had lost
interest in life. She declared she was
going out West to live with her mar-
ried daughter and that would leave
young Payton alone.
“I hate to leave Robert. No one
knows what foolish girl he might fall
in love with,” Mrs. Payton had con-
fided to Mrs. Welles. “One of your
daughters now—"
The two elderly ladies did not know
it, but one of the daughters—pretty
Cinders herself—had captured Rob-
ert’s heart and lost her own in ex-
change.
went

“When he leaves, he will forget all
about me in the kitchen,” mourned
Della.
She lifted her floury hands for in-
spection, and then dropped them in
confusion, for Robert Payton was
looking into the vine-covered window
of the butler's pantry where Della
made her pastry. He poked his head
through the vines, caught Della’s
floury hands and kissed them.
“Oh—" Della began to cry a little,
and then told him all her woes.
“There is an undercurrent of-—some-
thing. The boarders are dissatisfied—
the food is good—abundant, and we
have variety—"
A slow grin spread over Payton’s
face. “Two things lacking, sweet-
heart—will you marry me if I tell
you? You know I love you?”
“lI will, anyway!” dared Della hap
pily. “Tell me—what is the matter?”
“Prunes!” hissed Mr. Payton, “and
baked beans! I know—because I want
‘em myself.”

A Della stared. “We haven't any in

Now that Harry Sheetz had his ride
on the wheelbarrow, we're all settled
down to business again, so let's go.

“Chick” Derr said he didn’t mind
pushing that wheelbarrow but it did
get him sore when he went to a ball
game one time, bought a score card
and then neither team scored.
That's just about as bad as the
crack Georgie Shatto made. He said
he'd give a thousand dollars to be a
millionaire. So would I George.

But even worse than that was the
chap who talked thru his nose to keep
from wearin out his false teeth. How
does he think “Boom” Heilig can keep
a family or “Bolly” Longenecker can
take a hunting trip to Canada if ev-
erybody did likewise?
It does take a long time for things
to leak out but “they will out.” I've
just been told that “Russ” Halbleib
tried to shoot off a cannon a little bit
at a time last Fourth of July.
Down at Smith's fire Saturday our
fireman hero Honest John Hendrix
was on the job ready to save another
life. Harry Brown tells me John got
quite a boost as well as a medal at a
recent county convention.
One of our young chaps, (he works
at the Shoe Factory) got an unexpect-
ed bump recently. He said he heard
Grant Gerberich say: “Its the wom-
an who always pays,” so he took his
girl to a swell road house but Grant’s
remark didn’t hold good in his case.

Jet Joe Witmer got a good laugh
after he closed the Trimmer 10 and
5 cent store night. Some
man who was here attending the com-
munity exhibit the store
and asked where the furniture depart-
ment was.
