Copyrighted, 1807, by E. C. ParceUs. " Mm. Holton entered her sister Su san's room and, sinking Into tlie near est chair, undid her collar. This waa preparatory to the rite, sacred in Mill towu, of dressing for the afternoon. Rusnu, who, notwithstanding the fact that she hud just returned from an art school 'uud did not deny being artistic, refused to be called Suzanne, wan do ing something to her face, with the aid of a hand gluss and many unbecom ing grimaces. "Whut are you going to wear this afternoon?" Inquired Mrs. Holton In an elaborately careless voice. "Nothing that Is. I'm going to wash my hair, since there is not a place in this metropolis where I can have it washed for me." "Hut, Susie, not in the afternoon! There will surely be callers." "Just say I'm not at borne and don't bother." suid Susan, drawing out her hairpins aitd letting her red hair down over ber yellow and brown and tan kimono. "You forget that you are not in New York." said her sister sharply- "Do try to forget that you have been to art school and be decent to people. 'Not at home' won't go here. Every one in this village knows that you are at home, for you couldn't possibly get away without some one seeing you go. And. anyway, I asked that Mr. Bates over to call on you." "Kind of you! What Mr. BatesT' asked Susan, dropping her comb and stooping to pick it up. "Mrs. Barton's nephew. He's from the east somewhere, and be has the nicest manners. I thought maybe you would like 'to have some one come who is a llttl more like the men you are used to." she added. "I would." said Susan emphatically. "And it was nice of you to think of It Perhaps he'll come late In the after noon and my bair will be all dry. I'll hurry!" And she ran down the hall and slammed the bathroom door aftr her. There's something familiar about the iiar.ie." she said to her face la the glass while the water was running. "And-and I don't particularly want to see any more of the Bates clan but If Bessie should And that out she'd never let me forget It So I'll see her Mr. Bates and try to get Interested In this place." She played croquet with ber little niece while her bair dried, and the latter half of the game brought her Into full view of the street She got down on her knees .and bumped the gaudy ball with care and precision against the little post and while she knelt a young man walked up the straight walk to tbe front door. And so It happened that three min utea later as she entered the sitting room, with her glowing, wind blown hair and flushed face, she was Just In time to bear her sister's "company voice" say: "Come right out Into the sitting room. Mr. Bates. It's so much cooler there." She gained the stair closet just In time and softly pulled tbe door shut after ber. And then, safely bidden, she railed herself a goose. "Why didn't you go back out Into the yard ami reach your room by tbe lad der? No one but Bessie would live In a bouse that has no back stairs." She hoped the caller would not stay long, but she knew there was no tell Ing what false bojes ber suiter would bold out to the young man to keep hlra nntil Susan should appear. She did not kuow that Suan was In the closet and If she had known It rbe would not have known bow to get ber out of It. "But if she had one grain of sense, wblrh unfortunately she has not or she'd not be trying to make a match for me. she'd know that I. presumably In the back yard, could not get to my Mom in any way save through tbe place where they are sitting." The elwt was small, airless, duety and flit! of odds and euds. Susan hard ly dared move for fear of knocking something down. "Not that I care for being dlscov ered." she reasoned, "for that would serve them lth light tt I do not care to bring Jim's golf sticks or In dlnn cluba down on my defenseless head. I'm not much of i club woman, She searched cautiously for a keyhole and found none. "Of course not" she muttered dis gustedly, "lam denied even the small comfort of watching tbe dismay on Bessie's face as 1 fail to appear. So I must think upon my sins and be patient I presume. She sank back on ber beels and mopped her hot face with one corner of ber kimono. "I hope It doesn't fade." she thought Presently she rested ber forehead on ber knees and forgot time and place nd heat and discomfort Her thoughts were busy. "I suppose be and Maude Form an are married by this time. I wish- I knew bow that happened. lie always said he did not care for ber baby kind of prettlness. It tnnst bare been ber talent. No one can deny that she bad the rest of us beaten all hollow. That tittle characterless, baby faced thing could paint better than Dan him self." "Maude knows bow 1 feet about It and so does be. That's what hurts tbe worst I could not help showing it that last day. And she there was such triumph In ber silly little face wheo she catnu out of the studio, aof we knew she had got the prize. She looked fit me. ""d then she walked straight up to Dan, and they forgot I waa there. Oh, the humiliation of it! And then old Carton had to cap the climax . by telling me that I never would make an artist. I knew it well enough. ' All I wanted was If he'd only stopped there Instead of telling me that I should be married. 'I bnve seen that you are in love. Miss Susan, and I advise you to marry the good man and help him make a career "He wasn't so smart as he thought be was or he'd have seen that Maude wasn't content with getting the paint ing prize. She had to take everything. even" Forgetting where she was, she sprang to her feet bumping her bend against a pile of empty boxes, which fell with a deafening clatter. Then the door was flung open, and some one seized her arm and drew her gently out Into the sitting room. Su san gave one glance at her sister's horrified face and then laughed help lessly. It was fortunate that she could not see her own face, which was stained In an elaborate pattern from tbe kimono. "I Was hunting for my comb" she began and stopped, for the man. whose face she had not yet seen, came around in front of her. "Did you find It?" he asked. Susan turned white and then red and white again before she said a word. And when her Hps finally opened they uttered the one thing she could bnve bitten her tongue out for saying. "Where Is Maude?" "Maude? Oh. she's safely married and on a wedding trip. Whatever made you run away that day when old Carton told Maude -she bad won the prize? We bunted for you to tell you, but you were gone." "I didn't need to lie told. I saw," she sold, and then grew white again. "But why If you arc married why isn't Maude here too?" "Maude?" Suddenly the man gave a shout "Do you mean that you think I a:n married to Maude? That's a good one. She Is my sister-in-law now. She was engaged to Fred for Cve years, and they never had money enough to marry on Mi! she got that cash prize. That was why she worked so bard to get it." Susan begun to back toward the stairway. She felt It was time to es cape. "No. you don't" said the man. and he caught one comer of the kimono and held ber. "I'm not dressed." she murmured. "So I perceive." he answered. "But was that tbe reason you ran away because you thought Maude" "Old Carton- told me I'd never make an artist!" she evaded. "Did be? The brute! But that was no reason for running away from me. What else did be say?" "He satd I bad better get married," said Susan. "And that was why I ran away," As she had hoped he would, the man dropped the kimono In bis amaze ment and she darted up the stairs, leaving him looking after her with fear In bis eyes. "Susan-tell roe" She leaned over tbe banisters and smiled at him. "But of course I can't get married nntil some one asks me." she said, and before be could get to her the door of her room had aiammed. Cirews Folk Hard Workers. The amount of physical work done by the performers of the circus Is scarcely believable. These people make the care of their bodies their religion, and they will do nothing that mili tates against their strength or their health. When tbe performers rise In the morning they hurry to the cook tent for breakfast. Then they must get Into their trappings for the parade, failure to report at 10:30 Involving a flno of f.. If the big tent Is up early the chances are that the arena will be filled with performers practicing for an hour l 'fore the parade. After the street display the jierfonners have their dinner, and then they must dress for the grand entree, from which none Is excused. Only a very few of the clrcu folk escape with a single act. Nearly all of them do two and most of them three acts, for each of which they i:iut change their costume. A woman jterformer often works In a gymnastic act on the ground, another In the a!r, tides In a menage act or two and In the flat races at the end of tbe performance. In addition she will very probably "do a turn" In a con cert after the show, and she must change her costume for each appearance.- Every body's Magazine. A Trick That Wen. "Once, when 'Long John' Wentworth was mayor of Chicago," said an old time resident of that city, "a hot cam paign was In progress. The rough cle ment was showing signs of turbulence, and tng John' knew that the police force waa totally unable to cope with It If there should be riot There wasn't much of any police force In those daya. The few officers that there were didn't hare any uniform outside of a plug hat On the front of this was a semicircle of tin with the man's numter on It There waa no money to pay for additional officers, so 'Long John bethought himself of bright scheme. He had a figure 0 added to the number on every one of those hats. On election day the different members of tbe force were stationed conspicu ously where the trouble wna most like ly to break out The roughs saw tbe number. 200, SZO,' etc., where they had before seen only -.".' 2Jr and 33 The word went around that "Long John' bad added several hundred men to the police force, and the tough crowd were so Intimidated that they never dared to do l thing What Hs Misssd. One of the officials of the Indian of fice at Washington was visiting a res ervation in Montana on government business once when a certain chief who had taken a fancy to Uncle Sam's agents invited him to attend the wed ding of the Indian's daughter. The Indian office man was, to hi re gret, unable to be preeeut at tbe festiv ities, but the Indian laconically de scribed the function subsequently In order to indicate what the agent had missed. "Five dogs," said the chief, "and Plenty pie." Faith In th Doctor, An ISngllsh exchange quotes a story said to have been told at a "charity dinner." A man was brought Into the accident hospital who was thought to be dead. Ilia wife was with him. One of the doctors said, "He Is dead." The man raised his head and said, "No. I'm not dead yet" whereupon bis wife ad monished him, saying, "Be quiet; the doctor ought to know best" Ocome surely to vreik women; II who have to xrowa and en 11 dure the torture due to the 1 8 diseases peculiar to their sezJ Not only wrinkles, but hoi-! low, lack-lustre eyes, sallow comr lexion. gray hair, all of which tell ot premature oldf age.
