She Is late, this ordinary little Pennsylvania Dutch girl. Meely Schwenckton. Despite tier seeming Innocence and Ignorance, she succeeds in keeping him at a distance, to his chagrin. Meely, In the Schwenckton home, where she is boarding, is altogether unlike the girl who meets St. Croix clandestinely. She hs the teacher In the neighborhood .school, of which >Iarvin Creightop, St. Croix' brother, is superintendent. Meely learns that Marvin was td have married hi.s cousin, a titled Engli.sh lad.v, hut, believing she was attracted by the Creighton wealth, hiid refused the alliance. It Is ths. rumor that St. Croix Is to take Marvin's place and marry the Dnglish girl, St. Croix’ jeal ousy is aroused by Meely'.s report of an aged suitor for her hand. Tlie girl cleverly decoy,s him into admitting he has no Intention of marrying her. Marvin visits school in his official capacity a« superintendent and discovers how shockin.gly little Meely knows about school teaching. CHAPTER IV—Continued ——10— “No,” she decided, “for he is really faslidiop.s nod Nettie's a hopelessly coniiiion little thiii'i. And yet, if he can stand me and tlie dope I hand out to Iiiin—” .Site did not know, however, that St. Croix, to his own wonder, never felt tliat she was “coniinon” or vulgar; not even when she manifested tlie. in- telli.acnce of a sliocp or twisted the English language until Ins vnerves h ero rasped; not even wlien i^ie sat sprawling ungrac(>fnlly with her feet far apart, nor when, after tasting an apple, slie drew tlie back of licr hand across her’moutli. Slie was a good actress, but there wa.s that something inlierent that noth ing could disguise— * « • • • • . • It was just wlien, relieved of Aunt Rosy's espionage, Meely was begin ning to feel, in spile of tlie dangerous proximity of Marvin Creigliton, more at Ii.cr ease, less insecure in her eipiiv- ocal position, tliat, on that very eve ning wlien she sat in tlie warm, bright kilchcn, peacefully writing letters, she was to find the complexity and preca riousness of her situation greatly in creased by tho outcoHio of qn episode vrliicli was, at tliat same hour, in its incipiency on a Sunhury street corner,-., eiglit miles distant. Mr. .Sara .Scliwcnckton, having fin ished the business wliich had taken him to town, was about to enter Ids car parked on the ed,ge of the town, nnd start for home, when a man stand ing on the corner, app.'ireiitiy ivaitiiig for a trolley car, appi'oacliod him. “Pardon me—how often do these ears run?” the man inquired in a tone of extreme irritation. “I've been wail ing here twenty minutes!” “It don’t run no ears on this line after seven o’cloc’i:, Mister. Tfiis here trolley line ain’t doin’ much business anyhow, so it stops till seven a’rcady. You must lie a stranger liere—ain’t'.'— or you'd o’ kuoived tliat.” “No—luit I seldom use the trolley. Today, however, I had to leave my au tomobile at the repair simp. Are you, by any cliance, driving out tliis road?” “Yes, eiglit mile out.” “Will you, then, for a consideration, fet me ga with you?” Now as the night was ra’w and wet, It would, Mr. Scliweiickton felt, he only a Clii’istian act to olTer tliis stranger a seat in his car. Also, he liked company, some one to talk to on an oiglit-in'K? drive. Hut the news papers were so full of holdup stories— and he was carrying a good deal of money — wouldn’t he be taking chances? Tlie man looked so decent, however (wliat could 1)0 seen of liim in ’tlie dim ness) and .Mr. Sciiwenckton liad, as always wlien he traveled at night, brought Ids revolver with him— He felt in his pocket and surrep titiously moved Ids pistol from his rlglit-liand pocket to Ids left. “I wouldn’t want no sich a ‘consid eration,’ Mister, just so’s you ain’t one of these here thugs you can read about in the papers—” The man laughed. “You’re twice ray size. If I can trust you not to hold me up, I guess you’re safe!” “Yes, 1 guess that’s so too. All right. Come on, then.” Mr. Schwenckton felt rather cheat ed when he found that the stranger, though socialiic and agreeable enough, was not going to repay his hospitality by satisfying his curiosity as to wlio he was. AH the leading questions with which the farmer plied Idtn re ceived evasive an.swor.s. Tliis seemed to Jlr. Scliwi'iickton so suspicious tliat he frequently felt In Ids, left-liand pocket to be ready in case of need. However, he tried to put his appre hensions aside and to beguile tlie ride with friendly talk. “So your car had to go to the shop, heh?” “Yes, worse luck!” “TVheii I first got my car I drove k«r aud drove her till I got the cold in my chest and it near give pneu monia yet! Yes, anyhow!” The stranger made a sound expres sive of his sympathy. For a while they drove in silence. “E’unny thing happened In the bank today,” Mr. Schwenckton resumed con versationally. “When I went in to get a check cashed—” He stopped short in con.sternation—how tactless to mention having cashed a check! “What was It?” asked his compan ion. “Not much—a dollar or so. I spent It,” said Mr. Schwenckton pointedly. “I mean wliat was the funny thing that happened?” “Oh, that! Well, a lady standin’ alongside of me in the bank she hand ed in a check and tlie banker he said to her, ‘What denomination ?’ and she says sort of snappy, ‘Well,’ she says. ‘I’m a Presh.vtei’ian, but I don’t see wliat business it is of yoiirn,’ she says.” The laugh in wliicli they joined over this yarn seeme d to estalilish between them more conrulence. 5Ir. Sciiwenck ton, always warm-hearted, was sorry he had been feeling so suspicious of a fellow man and tried to atone by being as friendly as possible. “Was you ever to New York, Mis ter?” “Yes.” “That’s a place I never seen. But my brother he was alwa.vs set on seein’ this here New York oncet, tliat you can read so much about in tlie pajiers. So at la.st liis missus slie says to him, she says, ‘I’op,’ she says, you’re gettin’ on in life ami if you don’t go soon to tills Iicre New York, you’ll he too old to go.’ So, tlicn, lie said he’d go oncct. So she Iielpml him got ready and start off. ‘r^ow, mind you, write,’ hhe says to him, ‘and tell me how you like it.’ So after a couple of days she got sucli a pitcher post card from Iiiiii and he’d wrote on it, ‘Mom, Yi, yl, yi, yi! Hop.’ ” Again their joint laughter seemed to hring them syiiipatlietically close. Since leaving the lighted town, the road had been very dark, for the niglit was cloiniy and starless. “Wliere do .vou want out, stranger?” Mr. Schwenckton presently inquired. As he spoke, lie took ins hand from tlie steering wliecl to Iiave a glance at ills watcli—and as he did so, tlie man lieside Iiiin gave an uneasy start. M’ith a shock of some horror, Mr. Scliwenckton’s lingers found an empty pocket wlii're his watcli sliould liavo hoeii! Instantly he stopped Ids car and jerked out his revolver. “.Now, 'tlicn, you hand out that there watch and then you run for your life!” he shouted. Tlie man obeyed with alacrity, thrusting tlie watcli into the farmer’s outstrotrlied hand, leaiiiiig from tlie car and disappearing in the blackness of the road. Mr. Schwenckton, greatly sliaken by so narrowly escaping l)ej|ig nian- liamlled by a thug, ids soul heavy with sadness at the desperate wickedness of man, • went on his solitary way, musing on his own folly in having let Ids kindness of lieart get the better of Ids prudence. “It ain’t safe to take up strangei’S tliose days—that it tdn’t! And me, I was always too trusting that way! Well, this here’s certainly a lesson to me! lie Idnd to your fellah-creatures, yes—up to tlie danger point. Tliat’s all t\ih further a fellah darst be a Christian these days!” His despair over tlie perfidy of our hmnan nature deepened as lie reflect ed upon the “gentility” of tlie tldef: his “nice” voice, ids “educated” speech, his “polite manners”—what with his “Beg pardon,” “Thank you very much—” “A slick one, ho was! I can’t never trust no one’s appearances again!” thought Mr. Scliwcnckton with a sor rowful shake of Ids liead. “Tliat’s tlie worst Iiarm a crook does-^lie spreads abroad a ndstru.st of man made in the imago.of Gawd!” Fifteen minutes later ,Mr. Sciiwenck ton, usually tlie most iilacid of men, confronted his family in the kitchen, looking so white and agitated that Meely and Nettie sprang up greatly startled, and even Susie looked at him Inquiringly. “I was held up and robbed!" he announced. “Not two mile up the road yet!” “Ach! Was you hurt?” cried Nek- tie in a fright, running to him. “No, I ain’t hurt. And I ain’t lost nothin' neither! I held the crook up and got back what was stole off of me! That’s what I done!” “Ach, Pop!” Nettie gasped In min gled terror and admiration. “Good thing I took my rewolwer with! It ain’t safe, these rough times, to travel at night without a gun along!” He told them, then, as he removed his hat, coat and gloves, just what happened—giving his story a dra matic climax. “ ‘Now, then,’ I says to him, ‘you hand out that there watch and then you run for your life!’ I says. And he did! Witli that there rewolwer of mine in hi.s face, he done wliat I tol’ him and p.retty quick aliout it too! Yes, and I guess he’s runnin’ yet!” ' “Yes, well, but,” Susie stolidly spoke to him over her slioiilder, “you didn’t take your watch along. You let it at home. You forgot it. There it lays.” Slie tliru.st her ilniinh back ward toward a small shelf which held a convenient comb and brush for fam ily use. j Her husband stared at her Incredu lously as .slie calmly rocked he-i’ sleep ing infant—tlien. desperately hoping to prove Iier words false, lie fearfully drew from liis pocket the watch he de manded from the stranger, and slowly, reluctantly, he let his eyes fall upon It. It was not Ills! Such a watch It was as he could never hope, nor even wish, to own. Gold, jeweled, initialed. In a stride he stood before the shelf and beheld his own accusing watch. “I was sayin’ to Nettie,” said Susie, “that you’d be awful put out at goin’ without your watch along.” “And I never oncet missed it!” the wretched man murmured. “But—why, my lands!” faltered Nettie, “this liere’^ got an awful look! —like as if you’d held that there man up and stole his watch. Pop!” “And I don’t know who it is to give It hack!” ^Ir. Scliwenckton’s voice was agonized. “If I never find him, it’ll make me feel awful conscientious to keep his wntch! Y’i, yi, yil” ho sliook his head and began agitatedly to pace the length of the kitchen. “Oil, you’ll have no trouble finding him, Mr. Schwenckton,” said Jlcely cncouragiiigl.v. “He’li of course report to tlie police and they’ll easily trace you up.” “Yes, and arrest me for a thief yet!” exclaimed Mr. Schwenckton. “I’ll tell you!” cried Meely. “You report to the police, Mr. Sciiwenck ton, and toll them of your mistake— and that you want them to find the man. TTiat will s; er you.” Mr. Scliwhiickton stopped in his agi tated walking to and fro, and looked at Mcoly admiringly. “You’re got tlie head on you, Meely! I didn’t think that far myself. Fducation’s a a grand help to a body in tliis here life! Tliat’s what I’ll do this self same minute!” He went to the telephone, but found the line “busy.” “Delay may be fatal!” said Sleeley anxiously. “You must report it before he does. He has had a good deal of time already—all the time you’ve been home unloading your car and putting it in the gar.age—and the time you’ve been in the house—” “Yes, well, but I don’t think he’ll be reportin’ It wery soon—I started him on a good run and I guess he’,3 still runnin’!” • It was at this instant that they were all startled by a rap on the lutclien door, and before anyone could answer it, the door opened and a wet, be draggled and very tired-looking young man almost staggered into the room, closing the door hcdiind him and lean-' ing again.st it heavily.

GOOD DISHES Rules That Govern Kinship of Cousins lu answering a correspondent’s query, “'Wliat relation^ are the cliil- divii of first cousins to each other? What relation to me is my first cou- sin’.s child?” the Pathfinder Magazine says: “Reckoning cousin relationships Is simple If you start out right. A cou sin is one collaterally related by de scent from a common ancestor, but not a hi’oUier or sister. Cliildrcn of broth ers and sisters are first cousins to one another: sometimes tliey are called cousins-german, own cousins, or full cousins. The cliildren of first cou sins are ‘second cousins’ to one un- otlior; children of second cousins are third cousins to one another, and so on. The child of one’s first cousin is a fii'.st cousin once removed; the grandchild of one's first cousin is a first cousin twice removed, and so on. Confusion sometimes arises from the custom of some people who speak of tlie cliildren and grandchildren of their first cousins as second and third cousins, respectively, hut the practice is only local. The correct and almost universal rule for reckoning cousin* Is as we have given it” Taste and Invention For generations past architecture has been so overladen with extrane ous matter, that many autliorities ao tually preach that in this branch o> art it is in bad taste to invent. Co^ rect architecture, they say, consists merely in reassembling borrowed forms. All of which is palpably ab surd. If the Greeks had thought so there never would have been any Greek art. On the contrary, architec ture, now as ever, consists in solving problems of utility as economically and appropriately as may be.— York Sun.
