"By George, If I hadn't nearly for gotten!" quoth Stafford pere. He rum maged in an inner pocket. J " "Can't ' find the letter. - Must' have left it at the office. Anyhow, it's from my cousin, Godfrey Chester" "Now, Henry," interrupted the mild voice of Mrs. Stafford in amused ex postulation, "why will you keep " up that fiction about the cousinship?- It 1 mythical, and you know it!" ' "It's certainly remote," conceded the beaming paterfamilias at the opposite end of the table, "but there once was a relationship a long time ago, I ad mit. But Chester and I have traced back until we found it. He's a good fellow, Chester. I've always been urg ing him to manage that our young peo ple may become acquainted. He writes that his daughter will pass through Chicago tomorrow, on the way to New York, and will spend a few days with us. He says he wishes one of my fam ily would meet her. Bless my souL here's the letter after all!" He put on his spectacles and read aloud: "You can't mistake her. She's a curly head ed little girl In a gray gown and a hat with gray feathers. She's a nice child, and I'll be glad to have her meet your youngsters. There!". "A child!" groaned Ralph, who was 22 and studious. -' He swallowed his cafe noir at a gulp and rose disgustedly. "Youngsters, indeed!" cried Dick dis dainfully. "Does he take us for kin dergartners?" ' ' Ross, who was-the eldest, smiled in quite a superior and disinterested fash ion. He boasted a l flourishing mus tache. He was studying law. Plainly the subject had no interest for him. ."But one of you must meet the child!" cried the head of the house. "You'll go, Ralph?" ' "Can't, sir. s I'm doing an article on the architecture of" the tenth, century. It takes a lot of research. I'll be all morning In the Newberry library." ? Henry Stafford, huge of girth, roseate of visage and twinkling of eye, turned his face Imploringly toward his young est son. "You, Dick V" ' "Got a golf match on. , Can't make It, sir." "Dear, dear! If your sister were only at home" "She'll be back tomorrow afternoon," put in Mrs. Stafford. "But the little girl gets here" in the morning. She must be met. She is from a comparatively small town. She would be quite bewildered were she to find herself alone In Chicago.'? He sent the good looking young fel low with the mustache an appealing glance. "I wonder now, Ross, if you" Ross laughed leniently. "You poor. perplexed! old chap! Yes, I'll see that tire-child gets here all right!". "Good!" said- Henry Stafford, with a sigh of relief. ."Good!". But when the western train' disgorg ed its jostling multitude In theUn101 depot the following morning Ross Staf ford, standing close by the. iron gates, found that he had undertaken a task of greater magnitude than he had at the time imagined.' There was such a crush of people, stout and thin, tall and short. big and little. There were children processions of them. But they all seemed to belong to the folks who hur ried them along. Never a glimpse could he catch of a curly headed little girl in a irraV erown., wearing a hat with gray feathers. Or was the dress brown? By Jove! He wasn't even sure of that. The last laggard group trickled away. Ross knew the conductor of the Den ver train and spoke to him as he came hurrying along. "All off your train,' Brigham?" "Sure!"- - "There was a little girl coming to Chicago had curlj hair, a blue dress, a green hat blest ,if I remember! Wasn't she on V -. ! "Alone, was she?" , 1 "Yes.". "No, sir. Didn't come. Sure? Course lam." Ross wheeled around. "Well, I'll tel ephone the folks that she wasn't on. Dad can wire her people and find out I beg your pardon!" And he suddenly found himseir dow- lng profoundly, hat In hand, before a young woman with whom he had al most collided in his haste, a slender young woman,' a graceful young wom an, a lovely young woman, as his sus ceptible heart Instantly acknowledged. She accepted his apology with a slight bend of the head and a vivid blush. Half way up ' the stairs he glanced back and saw her standing where he had left her- He hesitated and went back. 'You are waiting for some one? Can I be of service?" " : "Thank your' What a sweet voice. "I am afraid there has been a mistake. No one has come to meet me. May l ask you to call a cab?" And when he had done' so, when she had thanked him, when he stood bare- beaded on the curbstone as the venicie rolled away, he' recollected that beJiad not listened to the address she had glv-. en the driver, and he wainea on m towering rage at his own Imbecility. ' Never was there so areary a uay, mvi though the late August sunshine found, Its way Into his office; never had the( reading of the law seemed such a dull and tiresome drudgery; never-pefore, had the pages blurred Into a mas? of , b-Iabs black marks, - but,: wen. never before bad a bewitching young. face come between nun am. a face with reddish gold ringlets clus- hls evening clothes, for he was going' out after dinner, and went down Jo the! parlor to find himself face to face with1 the "divinity of the red gold ringlets and the violet eyes! . -i "Ross, my dear,? .cooedMrs8f2 ford, "let me introduce you to Miss Chester, whom somehow you managed to miss this morning. .Why, you" y f For they were smiling at each' other merrily, spontaneously. - "Indeed, np, mother!" Perhaps ' he held the pretty hand she gave him a little longer than was necessary. "I met Miss Chester this morning. Did she not tell you I put her in a cab?" Miss Chester laughed. Ross Stafford laughed. And the bewilderment ofthe. neaa or tne house of Stafford, of the golfing son, and the studious son, as they In turn were presented, set them laughing again. . "Lord bless me!" cried Stafford sen ior, fuffilng bis hair, "your father -said you were. a little girl!" V '. ; ,r "Oh, I shall never be grown up to papal" cried Miss Chester. . "jtie saio," stammered tne young gentleman who was getting up an ar ticle on the architecture of the tenth century, "that that you were a nice child." .; "Don't you think," queried Adele Chester mischievously, "that I'm nice?" Whereat Ralph grew guiltily red. Helen Stafford reached home before dinner was over. Her brothers rap turous reception amazed her. k Never had she know how they missed her! Nor could she dream that each of three young hypocrites was saying to him self: - - "She won't go east In such a hurry If she and Helen take to each other." They did take to each other. Ross found It was not necessary to keep his engagement that evening and permit ted his friend to cool his heels alone' at their appointed rendezvous. Ralph learned his tenor went wonderfully well with the pure soprano of their guest. And Dick . was so anxious to initiate Miss Chester into the mysteries of flashlight pictures that he made him self no end . of a bore. The country cousin of the Staff ords did not go east that week nor the next. When she did go, all the mirth and laughter of the Stafford domicile seemed to go with her. y One morning a week after her de parture Ralph and Dick said some bit ter things when they discovered that Ross had found out he must attend to business In New York and had left for the city on the midnight train. And when Ross' returned, silent, but smil ing and exultant, they were not at all backward about telling him -with true fraternal frankness their opinion of his conduct. ' ; "You were awfully good to go to meet that little country lassie,9, commented Ralph witherlngly. ; "I believe ; you knew all the time she was the prettiest kind of a girl!" . "Kindness sheer kindness , on, my part, dear boy. But, as I have striven to impress on you, virtue is ever its own reward." .-., "Oh. come off V entreated Dick. "You just got the inside track, and you kept pulled his mustache. "I assure you In taking my late hastjr trip I had only the best Interests of my brothers at heart. My sole ambition, was to secure you the most charming sister-in-law, in the world." -' Helen jumped up. "Oh, Ross! Did you did she" He laughed quizzically. "Adele gave me a message for you, my dear. ..She said to tell you that you are to be" ."What, Ross?". "."-"' MBridesmaid."-Buffalo Commercial. It Snowed tit Baaafal Tvtli Ha, pr Way to Pop tfc Qacatloa. - -"It's a go," announced the young man with beaming face, rand the hap py day has been set!" . . "So you got your courage up to the point at last r said the -friend who understood the situation. , "Yes. . Say, it Isn't hard when you get started. But it is a wonder I didn't get nervous prostration before I made the plunge! I was six months trying to get courage enough to ask the all Important question. But every time that I opened my mouth to speak I simply broke out into a cold sweat and couldn't say a word for the life of me. I would have retreated a dozen times bag and baggage If I could have done so gracefully. : Not that 1 didn't want the girl, but simply for the rea son that I despaired of ever being able to ask her to be mine. The girl acted. too, as if she had a right to bear some thing to the point But I could only sit there like a chuckle headed idiot nd"abnmr the weather. I would have been right there In the same horrible situation If something hadn't happen ed to break the Ice. - "One night last week we were sitting side by side on a sofa and during one of those blissful moments when noth ing was being said I chanced to notice the girl's eyes Intently fixed upon a motto that hung on the wall opposite and which read, 'Love One Another.' I'll be hanged If I ever saw that motto before, but it gave me an inspiration, and I leaned over and murmured, 'Shall we? and she murmured, I don't mind,'. -and it was all over but the shouting!" Detroit Free Press. Hamiliated. . i. . ' "I have a young professional friend," said the veteran lawyer, ."whe Is very bright mentally,, but an abominably poor story teller. In fact, I believe It is his mental activity that makes him a bore In that regard. . "The other morning I met him on the way down town. He" greeted me cor dially and with the air of a man who had something good on his mind that he must share with some one else ; "Say,' he said, I'm going to tell you the best story you ever heard.' "Of course I Inwardly resented this statement, though I said nothing. He started with his -story, but he had not gone very far before he made a lengthy and tiresome dlscnrsion from the sub ject.

Thtn Tle- . wJ tlmlmea Parent. .. The 12-year-old son of a Van Buren street fond parent recently became the proud possessor of some guinea pigs. A day or two after the same were s&fely corralled In a cage he went about bragging of his new acquisition among his playmates. Now, it seems these youngsters knew of a "sell" In which guinea pigs, play a prominent part. They started to "hook" the youngster and caught him fast and hard. He felt bo bad about it that he started in turn to "sell" some one else. His father was the victim. "Did you know, papa, that if you hold a guinea pig by the tall its eyes will drop out?" His father laughed outright "Why, who In wonder told you such stuff, Louis?" , "The boys all say that," answered Louis, sober as a Judge, "and if so, yes, sir.' :; .: . "Oh, nonsense," said his father, still laughing. "Well, you go to the cage and hold one up and youll sec Just, to - humor the boy the father went out' In a moment he came back looking well, looking Just like a man that's been badly sold. fThe little rascal got me that time," he replied to a friend. - "But I don't see the point," said the friend. ' "Don't you?" : "No.? :.: :"' "Well, guinea pigs have no tails." Topeka Capital. ' Tha Maa;te Lantern. How many of us while using magic lanterns have wondered how they were first made? Indeed they are of very respectable antiquity. As early as the seventeenth . century a Jesuit named Kircher constructed one. It was a very crude affair, and as he was not unwilling to excite. the fears of the persons who witnessed his exhibitions he called it a "magic" lantern, and so it has always been called. ' There are reasons to believe that the lantern was in use even earlier than the seventeenth century and that the mysterious figures which the old as trologers, produced In the smoke of their mystic fires were produced In the same way as Kircher produced his, the smoke hiding the lantern. AFRAID OF BEING KISSED. Clevar Starr of a, Man, a. Maid and mm Iron Kattl. - Here Is aa ingenious Circassian sto ry: A maa was walking along one road and a woman along another. The roads finally' united, and the man and the woman, reaching the Junction at the same time, went on from there to gether. The man was carrying a large Iron kettle on his back. In one hand be held by the leg a live chicken, in the other, a cane, and ,he was leading a goat Just aa they' were coming to m deep, dark ravine the woman said to the man: "I am afraid to go through that dark ravine with you. It is a lonely place, and you raighUorerpowcr me and kiss me by force." "If you are afraid of that," said the man. "you shouldn't have walked with me at all.1. How can I possibly over come you and kiss you by force when I have this great Iron kettle on my back, a cane In one band and a lire chicken In the other and am leading a goatt I might aa well be tied aand and foot" "Yes," replied the woman, bot if you should stick your cane in the ground and tie the goat to It and turn the kettle bottom side up and put the chicken under it then yon might wick edly kiss me In spite of my resist ance." "Success to thy Ingenuity, O wom an T said the man to himself. I should never have thought of this expedient" And when they came to the ravine he stuck his cane into the ground and tied the goat to it gave the chicken to the woman, saying. "ITold It while t cut some grass for the goat" and then, lowering the kettle from his shoulders, be wickedly kissed the woman, as she was afraid he would. Stray Stories.

W. Hyde. After the usual greeting we seated our selves on an old log to exchange no tea. X pot the question: "Why are the turkeys always on the run when I see them?" , The old man spit through bis teeth, changed his position, laid bla loog. muzzle loading rifle on the ground, put the fourth portion of a plug of tobacco In bis mouth and proceeded to tell torn why the turkeys were always on the run when I saw them: - . "Of all the game I have ever banted turkey display the most wonderful power of vision. X cannot teU just why this ta.

A puff of wind slightly disturbed the brim of my bat He saw It and Immediately, took to sight , "On another occasion X was booting ta the mountains ta Georgia. X was lying behind a log aad was carefully bidden, all but the upper part of my face. A turkey was slowly coming ta reeponr to my call and was carefully noticing for signs of danger. .

"Now, the most Inexplicable thing ta regard to bunting turkeys to that, with all their acuteness of sight th surest way to get a shot Is to alt down la aa open plac with your back against a tree.
