“Mrs. Bowser!”
It was Mr. Bowser who spoke,* and
^In^such a de^; bass vi^ce as'made the
piano tremble <« its legs. , -
Mrs. Bowser looked up Inquiringly.
**A great mystery hangs over this
house. That mystery is al£rt> full of
deception.- I want it solved, right
away. I want to know what has been
going on in my own house."
“8tate your case,” replied Mrs. Bow
ser, but in tmies that showed she was
somewhat frightened.
“You ran in to see Mrs. Green a few
minutes last evening. While you were
absent I picked up a magazine off the
piano. 1 am not much of a reader of
such things, as you know, because
iheir contents are mostly gush.,f 1 just
wanted to look at the pictures to while
away the thue. On opening u maga- .
zine I found a letter. It had been j
opened. It was addressed to ‘Miss j
Jean Carew,' at our street and number, !
and pulling forth the letter, I found it
was from the editor of the magazine.
lie had accepted a stoi-y and sent a
clieck lor $30 in payment. Do you
know any young ladjy named Jean
Curew?”
“Why—why, I was going to tell you
all about it." said Mrs. Bowser. “The
editor of the magazine said he wanted
stories. I tnought that I could write
one to suit him, anil so I sat down and
<!ashO(l olT one. I did not wish to send
luy own name as authoress, and so I
!<>ok Jean Carew. You see, he ac-
vpte<l uiy story and sent me a check,
iind I was going to ask you to get It
•:tslic(l for me. Is there any great mys
tery about that?”
“I^Irs. IJowst^r, let us look into this
thing. In the first place, you wrote j
this story \vi%liout saying anything to
iLe about it. In the next place, you
lOOk anotlHjr person's name, and there- j
by deceived tiie editor and the public. ;
In the lU'xii place, I have read your !
Ktory, and it is the most nonsensical |
tiling' I ev«'r read. It is all mush and ;
gush. The editor must have gcme |
craV.y to accept such a story. You have
swindled him «tiit of and you slioura \
otnd the clieck ri^iht back!” j
“Why. Mr. Bowser, you talk very .
strange:” exclaimed Mrs. Bov.ser. j
“TJie ed’itor of the magnzlne is sup- j
posed to know wiutt is good and what j
is bad. He thou;:ht this story of mine |
jrood enough to publish, and was worth I
the check lie s^nt uie. I don't praise it I
nnuii myself, imt I (ion’t think you I
•ii’.jiht to coridenui it as yoi^ do. Mrs. ;
uid two other ladles read it, I

quartera oi tiie' Pawnee tribe.
chief of the tribe is a gentleman named
“Kicking Horse.'’' Ue is willing to
accept the Bibles and hymn houks,
btit he Is also willing to accept the
fair hand of our heroine. He makes
titis known to her. Ue cannot have
her hand. It is "promised t« a pawn
broker’s assistant in Boston, and she
is a girl who never goes back on her
word. Old Kicking Horse gets ;nad,
and he gives her an hour to thiak
it over. Is; the morning, if she does
not marry him, he will roast her a
beautiful brown at the stake. Isn’t
tiiat a mighty good plfDt,,so far?”
“It’s very tbrilling,” answered' Mrs.
Bowser, “brU: go on.”
“When night comes,”,continued Mr.
Bow.ser, “Old K. H. goes to th6 maid
en’s tent nnd demands thait she
cither roaet or marry. If you were
writing^ this story« you would hgve
about a barrel of tears at this point,
and your poor maiden would faint
away and remain unconscious for
about three weeks. See how J do It.
Quicker than* lightning she draws two
automatics frOm her pocket and points
then] at the uake<l breast of old K. H.
end. In tones which cannot lie mis
taken for love tones, she says;
“*Ycu are standing on ^the verge of
the grave! Yon ^o • Turn yonr f»c«

‘•Bosli—nonsense' A wo:!i;ui would j
shed ItaiSs over iuiythin?. Your ;
'tory had .a hundred I’nnlts. There is
i no plot and no strei.irtii. You did as
V ell as you couid. Iiut 1 am not going
to have it known tiiat the wife of
Samuel Bowser is writing such gusli
for publication. It shows a wealc
brain, on your part, and laxity on
mine. People will ask why I don’t
forbid you. Hereafter all the sfories

“Weil, if you can write a stojy, why

check for it will h* at least $200.
There will be stre:vc:h and vitality

the pnoiiiouse. There she meets an
old 'rrandma, whose only son sent her
thevc. to be off his hands. Tour
heroine's heart is toucl|M. She takes
the old lady out and (mts her in tne
cottage, and tells her' that for the
rest of her life she need do nothing
but sit In a rocking chair and eat
fried eggs three tin>es,a day.”
“And what is your plot?”
“Why, a glrl.'ln digglnjt a dv h, finds

“Isn’t that natnral, Mrs. Bowser?”
“Very much so,” she assented.
“Wo now turn to the pawnbroker’s
assistant. Not liearing from the girl
by postal card, he gets anxious and
fretful. He hires a flying machine and
poes West in search of her. He ar
rives In the Pawnee country just as
i she is walking old K. H. acniss the

j beside her. He smiles and extends his
I hand.s. She jumps in beside him, and
j l>efori oI<1 K. H. knows anything

j speedings for Boston, where they don’t
lo.se ten minutes in getting married.
It is such stories as this. Mrs. Iknvser.
that will redound to the credit of our
hou.se. I go to write It I Do not
come into the library on any excuse
v.hatever. I will finish this story so
I can mail it in the morning. You may
go upstairs now.”
Mrs. Bowser went upstairs, laughing
|lo herself all the way, and Mr. Bow
ser sought the library. He opened a
fresh bottle of ink and got down about
200 sheets of paper.
At midnight, not having heard from
him, Mrs. Bowser softly descefided^the
stairs, and Softly opened the library
door/ Mr. Bowser sat in the chair
asleep. He had simply written:
“By thunder! W’hat ails my brain
tonight!”
Mrs. Bowser, gave him a shake and
he followed her upstairs to’ bed. He
was asleep in about \hree,‘minutes,
but the old story gripped'him and he
called out: .
"Do your worst, you savage mon
ster! Never will I marry a Kicking
Horse! Never, never, never!”

As the luckiest man, honors go to
Nicholas Murphy of PhUadjbiphia.
Murphy walked into a moving train
between Boothwyn and Ogden streets,
on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
The locomotive cylinder tapped him
upon the shoulder and Murphy de
scribed a loop, alighting on his feet.
Then he sank to the ground. When a
foreman of a gang of laborers rushed
to where he was, Murphy sprang to
his feet and ran away, thinking he
would be arrested" for trespassing up
on the railroad. He had .escaped In
jury, and the worst damage done was
to the temper of the conductor of the
flyer, which was delayed ten minutes.
