Behind the scenes had always been a domain of fairyland to her. The thought that she was to witness a re- hearsal, and a dress Tehearsal at that, overpowered ber. It was not at all as she had pictured it. The long, low ceilinged hall was very unlike the stage, and the mass of properties and scenery thrown about in apparent chaos bewildered her. A huge bowlder lay against an Italian fountain, and flower beds, stacked one above the other, looked very unlike the flower beds she knew. Over in one corner a group of men were pulling and hauling at a girl dressed as an Indian. In the center of the hall half a dozen men were struggling through some unfamiliar music, and not far away a bheavily built man was deliberately slitting a new leather coat i:to shreds and rub- bing it on the dirty floor to take off Its aspect of newness. Other girls were going through dane- ing steps at the behest of a stocky lit- tle man, who beat time with a thick pole he carried when he was not u»ing the stick to threaten some unruly girl. And over all presided a thin, nervous looking mar, who seemed to have the faculty of being In three places at once. Tom Seaion detached himself from the group about a cage in one corner and came toward her. “It doesn't seem much when you see it close to, does it?” he laughed. “It is a little disappointing,” she ad- mitted, “but I find it very interesting.” “They are going to dress soon,” he said carelessly, “and then run through the pantomime. It's a pity that they cannot get the hall upstairs, where they can get the scenery up. There's a wedding or something going on up there.” “It was awfurly good of you to bring me,” she said impulsively. “It's goed for you to come,” h2 laugh- ed. “A glimpse of a dvess rehearsal is D've lost all my kinfolks. 4 poor man!

TOM HEADED THE BRUTE INTO HIS CAGE JUST AS HERMES BUSHED IN. the best cure for the stage fever that I It was lucky that Hermes was in a good humor last night when I asked him if I might bring you over.” “Is that Mermes?” she asked, point- ing to a tall, handsome fellow who posed in one corner. “That's the man who made the cos- tumes,” be laughed. “Hermes is that little fellow who 1s all over the place. He and St. Elmo, the ballet master— that little fellow with the such—vnre do- Ing about half the work.” Beth glanced with new interest at the flying figure. She had seen him on the stage dressed in mystic robes and with all of the advantages of scenic en- vironment. He looked vastly different as he flew about the place in an old pair of trousers and a tattered flannel shirt. Even when the players who had sip- ped out of the room began to come back in gaudy costumes, the illusion ‘was not restored, for the nervous little |- ballet master kept jumping into the space outlined by chairs to represent the stage and, roughly throwing some one aside, took her place to show what he wanted done. Not untfl they came to the trick to which the pantomime worked up did Beth regain her interest. The beautiful white girl was supposed to be thrown into a lion's den, but an Indian mai: 3en, by virtue of a talisman, took the place of the infurlated beast. The others crowded about the cage to see the trick worked, and Tom drag- ged Beth over, with a whispered, “You mustn’'t tell the trick to any one.” She nodded assent with a delightful feeling of mystery and watched with interest the elaborate working of a trick that seemed simple enough fro™ the audience. Half a dozen times the trick was tried before Hermes straightened up with an “All right! Dress for the nev+ act,” and the crowd of fantastically dressed players rushed off to the ante- room. Tom led Beth back to the tiny plai- form that formed her seat of vantage. “Disillusioned ?” he said, with a smil “Entirely so,” she shuddered. “Of 4 ed against him, He was just Tom Se: | course I knew it was all play, but ", never dreamed it was such hard work “You should have been to one of the early rehearsals,” he, laughed. “There ‘was one afternoon when St. Elmo got 80 excited at the way one of the stupid girls behaved that I had to jump in and catch his-arm to keep him from striking her. He's a genius, but his temper is something awful. It's no ‘worse, though, than with some of: the big companies.” 'z “I don’t think 1 shall want any of It,” she shuddered. “It has cured me com- TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY vDVru glsts refund money if it fails to cure, E OVE'S !lknl.mm 15 on each box. 25c. pletely of my desire to go on the stage.” “Do you think you could settle down to being just Mps. Tom Seaton?' he pleaded. I want you so, dear.” “Don’t, please,” she begged. “You | know how I feel.” He turned away. He knew all too well how she felf. That same roman- tlclsm that urged her to the stage ac ton, big, good natured and a faithful friend, but entirely too unromantic to appeal to her heart. e had destroyed the glamour of the stage for her by bringing her to rehearsal. Onl acle could work the other change. He had slipped his coat off when he had come in, followin xample of the rest, and now he turned to a cigar, for solace. He was carefully selecting one from his case when a cry from Beth caused him to turn. There just below the platform stood King, the lion used in the ti In the excitement some one had neglected to fasten the door of the cage, and while they had been talking he had slipped out and started on a four of investigation. : All of the players had gone to change their costumes, and the property man bad taken advantage of Hermes' ab- sence to slip out to the corner for a glass of beer. They were alone. Just below him on the edge of the platform were a couple of revolvers loaded with blank charges. With a bound he caught one of these up and discharged it into King's face. With an angry snarl the brute turned and charged to- ward the other end of the room. Tom caught up the other revolver and slipped it into his pocket. Then be | seized St. Elmo’s wand and followed | the retreating form. Back and forth | they went, up and down the hall, until at last with a quick. tn Tom headed the brute into his cage just as Hermes rushed in. It was he who latched the door of | the cage, for now that the danger w: over Beth was clinging to Tom, mur- muring praises that sounded sweet to his ears. Hermes came forward, but Tom, engaging himself m Beth’s clasp, went toward him and whispered in his car. Hermes smiled knowingly and darted out. Presently he was back again. “There is a carriage at the dOJl " he said. “I am sorry that M should have had so unp Jsmt an ex- perience while my guest.” “All's well that ends well,” laughed Tom. “Good night, Hermes, and many thanks for your courtesy. I'll see you tomorrow.” In the carriage Beth ciung to Tom as | though the danger were not yet over. “And to think,” she sobbed penitently, “that I did not realize a brave man you were! I do 1 ou, Tom, but somehow”— “I kuow,” he said gently as she fal- tered. “You wanted 2 hero, and T was 80 dreadfully commonplace.” “You're not!” she cried indignantly. | “Only I—well, I never realized before how Dbig and brave you were.” “AlPs well that ends well,” he chuckled. “Tomorrow morning you wili be wearing the bizgest s re that an engaged girl ever had.” “T don’t deserve it,” she said meekly. “You're awfully good, Tom.” Some hours later Seaton sat in his little den absorbing a Urnnd}" and soda | in absolute content. He looked up at Beth's picture on the mdx\tcl “I guess you've had a lot of ideals| smashed tonight, little girl,” he mused, “but it was good for you, and if any one ever tells you that that poor old brute was a darned sight more scared then you ever could be I'll knock his blamed head off.” - Peualty of Politeness, The “tradesman” has his troubles as well as his next door neighbor, the “business man.” One day last week a wholesale fish dealer in Fulton market was approached by a fashionably dressed woman, who, after asking the price, decided to buy a pound of smelts. Although it was not custom- ary to cater to retail trade, to be con- genial he decided to oblige her. “I would like to have them cleaned, if you please,” she said. The fishman cleaned them. “Oh, yes,” the woman considerately remarked after looking them over, “will you kindly take all the bones out?” “Certainly,” said the man. But he said things to himself as he went be- hind the fcebox and extracted the bones. After fifteen minutes’ labor he wrap- ped the smelts in a neat parce!, swhick he handed the woman. “I am so much obliged to you,” she said. “You see, my cat absolutely re- fuses to eat fish if they are bony.” As the fashionably gowned woman ‘walked out the fishman said some more things.—New York Press.

It was introduced from Quito into Spain about 1580 under the name of “papa,” which in Spanish it still bears. From Spain it found its way to Italy, here it became known as “tartuffa- lo,” and thence was carried to Mons, in Belglum, by one of the attendants of the pope’s legate to that country. In 1588 1t was sont by Philippe de Sivry, governor of Mons, to the botanist, De L’Ecluse, professor at the University of Leyden, who in 1601 published the first good description of it under the name of “Papas peruanorum,” and stated that it had then spread through- out Germany. Recommended in France by Caspar Bauhin, the culture of the tuber rapidly extended in 1592 through- out Franche Comte, the Vosges and Burgundy. But the belief becoming prevalent that it caused leprosy and fe- ver, it underwent an ordeal of persecu- tion from which it did not recover un- til three-quarters of a century after- ward.

I love to sew green too. Pinks are easy, So are most of the clear, pale tints. But black! But red!

Polka dots dance, too,” she ended. “They polka; hence the name.””—New York Press. The Childish Voice Too Much. A good story is told of Signor Foli, the famous basso. Once upon a time he was singing “The Raft” when a childish voice from somewhere in the stalls suddenly piped in and attempted to organize an impromptu duet. Un- fortunately ile next line of the song Tark! Vot sound is that which breaks upon mine ear?” This so tickled the fancy of the great vocalist that he burst into a hearty fit of laughter and left the platform, followed by the pi anist. Twice they came back and at- tempted the song, and finally they had to give it up in despair, much to the amusement of the audienca Many Kinds of Days In Ones A mean eolar day is the average or mean of all the apparent solar days in a year. Mean solar time is that shown by a well regulated clock or wateh, while apparent solar time is that shown by a well constructed sun dial. The difference between the two at any time is the equation of time and may amount to sixteed minutes and twen. ty-one seconds. The astronomical day begins at noon and the civil day at the preceding midnight. The sidereal and mean solar days are both invariable, but one day of the latter Is equal to 1 day 3 minutes and 56.555 seconds of the former. Cautious.
