Her Crandpa Hatfield mchho could get her one; hut I don't know that lie's aide to. although he al xvays has been close-mouthed about his money affairs. You'll be at the cele bration V" "Oh, yes; we expect to hear nil." There th conversation ended, bo cause a red-haired girl came hurriedly Into the silting room. She blushed furiously as she heard her name. On the morning of the Fourth of July Louisa May xvas very happy as she stood before the small mirror in her bed room and gave the last touches to her toilet. Her challis had made up very p. -Oily, and her mother had de lighted her by an unexpected gift of a pretty pink ribbon sash. She had never before had such a beautiful hat, and there xvas but one thing to detract from her satisfaction with her ap pearance. "If I only didn't have such a mop of red hair!" she said to the mirror. "If It was mouse-colored, like Amanda Iane's, or a regular briudle like Lucy Trent's, I shouldn't care. Hut red! It Isn't as red as it used to be, though. and I shall xvear my hat while I sin that xvill hide It a pood deal. There had boon few holidays in Lou isa May's life, and never one so full of promise of pleasure as this. She had been to the village tho-daj before to rehearse her song xvith Miss Hope, who she found herself on the platform be fore the audience that tilled every part of the grove. The Chairman of the day stepped forward and said: "We will now listen to a solo, 'The Star Spangled Hanner,' by Miss Louisa May Hatfield." At this some of the Orand Army men set up a shout, ami Louisa May walked to the froiw of the platform with the large silk tlag she xvas to hold while she sang. The applause died away and the or ganist had just begun !o play the pre lude, when a boy shouted shrilly! "Ked head! lied head! l'.ettcr look out or the lireworks will catch!" Louis j May's pink cheeks grew pal lid. She opened her lips, but no sound came from them. She xvas trembling from head to foot. The Hag fell from her hand down over the edge of the platform. Then in an agony of em barrassment she put both hands over her face ad began to cry. The boy who had called out "Hod head:" suddenly felt a hand grip the back of his collar, and he xvas jerked from his seat by an irate little old man. "I'll let ye know how ye call my sran'daughter 'red head,' ye little sass box! You take that!" and he smartly big aUiui her. and her eye xvere tinn ing and her fae xvu Mulling a he U'gan the second Mauza In. a voloo without the lat quaver. The old man did not sins iigxx He Mood side her. xvitli one arm still around her. Mini nodded time with his Miowy head and gently waved the tla above the singer. xx lien Iiulsa Mays voice died pway after the last lines, the applause was deafening. While it was Mill at its height her grandfather stepped to the edge of the platform, holding the flag aloft. When he could le heard he called out Khril'y: "Kverybody join me in singing the last two lines! Come, now, everybody sing:" "And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of tiic free and the home of the brave." The Oovernor himself congratulated Louisa May, and handing her the beau tiful little silk tlag he had been holding in his hand, he said: "Let me give you this to remember me by."

Don't "Why. grandpa!" she exclaimed, and Hung her arms around his neck, half laughing and half-crying. His dim xes had a strange light in them, and his voice xvas not' steady as he said: "I tell ye, Louisy, I don't know xvhen I have heard anything that took suvh hold of me as the xvay you sung that grand old 'Star Spangled Banner.'

He stopped at the end of these lines and said gently to Iouisa May: "Come, now, honey, you sing, too." She had taken her hands from her lace, and as she looked into the sympa thetic faces of the people before her, she felt her courage rise.
