, PAGE SIX At e e e e e o & All for Sadie [ ] By NEWTON A. FUESSLE (Copyright) The Lloyd School of Scientific Beau- tification boasted imposing, two-color Jetter-heads, bearing the picture of the 22-story Ramge bullding and that of a handsome lady in evening dress, la- Meled. “Mme. Josephine Lloyd, - presi- Jdent.” The school, in. reality, consisted of ane Harry Lloyd Rugglesford, one re- Ddailt typewriter, one peroxidized six-a- week stenographer, one second-hand oll-top desk, and a small dingy »oom on the top floor of the Ramge building.. The pictured building on the stationery was, therefore, & cage ‘ef metonomy, and that of the shoulder ahow.a gentle fake. H. Lloyd Rugglesford was president, gecretary, treasurer, board of direct- ors, and office boy of the school, along ‘with Its faculty of able teachers and far-famed aunthorities on hair-dressing, #acia! massage, manicuring, and chi- ropody, and kindred recherche, erudite and recondite subjects. His course of Instruction was by eorrespondence. It comprised 12 les- - mons. The fee was $20-in-advance- aon-pay-but-once-resylts-guaranteed. He advertised in newspapers and ‘western magazines whose advertising wmanagers, were not. yet overwhelmed ®r advertising reform. , ..When: the beauty doctor’s follow- ®p system was slow in convincing the willage belles that they should be sci- wtifically beautified, he made haste, e hold forth the luré of a special rate o $15.42-812.36—$9.18-~$7.29—$3.05 —or $LT7. i He gauged hia haste and figures by ‘“be ‘quality of the statiomery upon ‘which - mademoiselle .had propounded Ber inquirles.. As a judge of human nature—I mean. feminine nature, for there is a difference--by the station- ey route, ‘Hx’n-ry Lloyd Rugglesford was an adept. The twelve printed lessons cost him Fourteen cents. Advertising he figured 2t fiftcen cents an inqulry. Oflice rent was seven dollars a mouth. The de- preciation of the rebullt and of the ¥P. B. stenographer were small. Over- head expenses were less. Hence his sound| judgment allowed him not in- frequently to descend to the one dol- Jar and seventy-seven cents mark. ¥orglve me, reader, for this lagging wtart and the arrray of dull statisties.

Apa this was the plcture that float- e ] pot of steeping Young Hyson, he be- held a failr young creature, with red cheeks, eyes like violets, retrousse nose, and halr.of dainty, drug-store flaxen hue. You guessed it, reader. It was Sadle. For weeks had this wonderful pic- ture hung in Harry’s mind. For weeks had he argued the question of mar- riage pro and con. At times he had been on the point of laying bare his soul and begging Sadie to go with him to the courthouse and clergy, and thus make him the happiest beauty doctor on earth. . Yet, always, before he could~selze her fair hand and begin his matrimoni- al canvass, a still small voice had warned him that before he Mhitched his charfot to a marriage license he must needs address Satan in the terms of the Biblical command, eschew his undignified and dangerous calling, and cast about him for a more genteel and desirable vocgtion. He 'kunew that already a post-office inspector was camping on his trail, and he 'knew not the day nor the jhour when _a cruel and untimely govern- -mental jolt would relegate the tnstitu- tion of sclentific beautification Into the discard. Incessantly had the sinister vision of the post-office inspector been haunting him, -flitting Into, his dream by night, harassing his thoughts by day. : What—marry Sadle while standing thus upon the thin ice of his profes- sional life? No, !t wouldn't be right to commit such a reckless act. ' He had therefore cast about him for a buyer upon whose shoulders to un- load * the . institution of latter-day learning. And yesterday he had found a man who had offered him & thousand dollars for the gay enterprise, for- ever to have and to hold. He had ac- cepted the offer. and closed the deal with impatient dispatch. And now he had resolved to turn his youthful energies into the real-estate business, place a “best investment” upon. Sadie’s finger, and become a de- sirable citizen beyond the pale of post- office inspectors and kindred, wortles of his hitherto. dangerous pursuits: Little wonder that Harry's thoughts were thronged with flatirons, flapjacks, frying pans and fluffy kismonos, instead of with the. unregenerate details of a bhusiness fahoo! Hairy __pulled himself together, wheeled his ebair about with & sudden- ness that startled Sadie, and said: “Sade, I've been wanting to-tell you something for a good many weeks.” “What's on your mind, kiddo?” asked the girl coyly. ¢ . “Well,” pursued the beawty doctor. “I've conte to the conélusion that this eorrespondence sehonl graft isn't ex- actly the stant for an ambitions young | chap like me.
