"Do you intend, to flirt with Jam?"
This inquiry was from inc. Corn v.-as

"Do 1 intend to iiirt willi him;' sho
repeated, wuilins nt her reflected toinge,
I knew that particular b-milc. I bad seen
it before. It diviv up the left corner of
the mouth a littlo. It brought out a cer

""DhrTeTrvell, I observed", "But do-r!

Jly clearest, every man is worth whiio
--when theru'u no better. But ho is not
bo very id looking. Anyway, beauty
counts for nothing in a man." '
'No. It'i just as well, bo far as Mr.
Whitney is concerned, that it does not."-
Cora had completed tho brushing pro-ce.-a,
ym p'.ailed the hair into a chubby
braid tied up nt the end with a bluo nu
bon, mid now turned hernjlf about modi-taO.-ly
to look at mo. Presently blie re
marked: "You are a strange girl, Eilon."
"Why?" I ventured to aide.
"O-'iyoa misstluiiip." Shogavoher

"FlirtatiouB, do you uusaa?" She gave a

"V"os. If ho is unexhilarating. iSomc

niiicant uix liavo a strange jiow-er of ias
ciaalion. Oil, you needn't laugh."
"I wouldn't ihvam of such a thing. I
am lost in admiration at your occult
knowledge," I declared.
"Voiucoul.l have it. too, if you would
take tin interest in the subject practice,
you know."
"Oh. no, I haven't tho necessary quali
fications. I am not Sfl and ahcml
lovely. I am 2U and usually considered
plain."
'Oh, looks havo not really very much
to do with tho matter," Cora was good
enough to say. "Neither has ago. It's
all in kiio'.viii:,' how to manage, iteiilos,
was probalily nil right, and nsGuroily ho
concern of mine. ' .
One. day as I sat nt my customary
window (wo had been Ura. Koteham's
"city boarders" for some three weeks)
Cora came in, and tossing her racket
againbt tho first support sha found for
it. drew a chair near my table and tat
down. t . ,
llio Bi'.enco that ensued caused mo to
look up in surprise. Jliss Weatlierloy
was Btaring out at tho trees.
WeHj' I observed. "What has Imp
pened? What ia tho matter?" -
Sho promised the sjiecifio answer by
saying that she did not fori well.
"Yon probably imbibed a littlo star
light last night. When ili.l Fttlher
Ketcham cIcjo up and send Mr. Whitney
home?" . .
"Oil, that's nil right?" sho exclaimed
impatiently. "Ono can do those lhing3
here!" ' ' . " . "
"Do you refer to the atmospheric
freedom from dampness and malaria ot
to tho rural freedom from impro
priety?" "Both," she replied promptly.
"Oil, I did not know that, where a
iUrtation was concerned, you troubled
yourself about tho former coahider.ition
at nil."
No, tho excitement keeps ono from
taking col 1," tJic said, with jiertect grav
ity, still Btaring out of tho window. .
I buret out laughing.
"Now, please don't laugh," sho said,
relaxing. tho seriousness of her own face.
"I , came to you because 1 have gotten
into a tight corner, and bec'auso I want
you lo help me out."
"Oil, indeed! that is usually the timo
one seeks out one's friends, I beh'eve."
"You can bo as sarcastic o.o you
clionwo. if ymi.BaliajwjLgasl
you to do." .
"Weil, what is it? Havo you been
going a litilo tx) far with Mr. Whitney?
Do you want to dra'.v yourself out of tho
alfair?"
"That in it precisely!" she criad with
creat animation. "You nlways seo
tlirough things clearly when you take tho
pains. Kllenl Tho fact i3 I am afraid
that tiio fellow is getting a little. too
fond of me. Mind you, I have never en
couraged Iiiin"
"Oh! Yoa havo "never encouraged
hirar"
"Now, don't bo dull!" cho cried petu
lantly, "You uiM'enitand what I mean
perfectly well. I have never encouraged
him to think I might well, marry him;
I liave never gone eo far ai that. And I
have never said a word outright to
not BUro" and cho p.-.u.-d "!'m not
tiuro but that, i:ow that I havo mailo up
my mind to Lreak otf my flirtation with
ttiia, I like him rather better than I
thought I did. If it's going to be hard on
luin, it's just poislblo that it may bo a

Say, bluntly, was this:
'I wonder if you'ro blind, or if you

I suppose (iic-se aro br.ual thiivps to say

could stand them. Her b;t quality vas
an elastic, fihroiw, indestructible kind if
courage and fraikueis. Tilio never hes-i-tated
to apply tl;PN.e.;t cf tho latter to

calmly. "What do you uup;oso is t!io
reason? I wonder if any ono can havo

"What could they say?"
"One never knows," oho returned,
falling to fresh brushinja of her hair
with an absent hand.
I will admit that if Cora hail culti

"I am very sorry to go, too.J' sliesaid,
pensively, "I have I ad tuch a vtry de
