CITY AND COUNTRY PROPERTY— SOME FINE BARGAINS. - Wil | Grandmother Two big tears rolled from under Harrlet's lids and made their way slowly down her plump cheeks. “Harriet, dear,” said Mrs. Martin, gently, but with marked firmness, “I think you'd better go to your own room for a while, “She’'s such a queer child,” she went on after Harriet had disappeared with a gulp of despair. “She simply determined that she won't wear her new dress to the party tomorrow. She wants to wear her old one!"” Grandmother Hilton, to whom the remark was addressed, passed over this unnatural state of mind without comment. “Why doesn’t she want to wear the new one?” she asked. “She says it makes her look funny,” moaned Harrlet's mother. “She says iit's not like the other girls’ dresses. Well, I didn't want it to be like the other girls’' dresses. | tried so hard to make it have a little individuality.” “Oh!” said Grandmother Hilton. “Of course you're right, dear,” she said, after a moment's reflection, “but since it makes her so unhappy don’t you think it would be better to let her wear the old one?” “When she has a perfectly new one?” cried Mr. Martin, desperately. At this moment Harriet's tear stain. ed face appeared in the doorway. “Then can | not go to the party, mother?” she hiccoughed. “Harriet,” said her mother, sternly, “you will go to that party and you will wear the very pretty and unusual looking dress that T got for vou. Not another word. please.” Harriet gave vent to her feelings in a sudden loud howl. *Oh!" <he wailed. “How can yon be so mean to me? | don't mind a bit staying at home if you will let me, but it will just kill me to wear that dress. There isn't another giri in the world that has one like it. I can’t bear to wear it,” Mrs. Martin looked at her own| mother. “Did you ever hear anything like 1t? 1t's ridienlous!™ she exclaim- ed, forlornly. The atmosphere of the household was fraught with gloom during the rest of the day. Ilurriet’s swollen eyes and gencral air of desolation gave the place the effect of a tomb. | When Harriet's father—-who went un-! on the general principle that Harriet | should be allowed to do exactly as she pleased so long as it would do her no bodily injury-—came home and learned the cause of his daughter's deep de- pression, he laughed “Well, for goodness sake, why don't you let the kid wear the old one?" he inquired. Then he observed the firm line | made by his wife's lips and he knew | there was no use in discussing the | matter further. A new silver dollar bestowed on Harrlet helped to relieve the tension, but the watery little smile which he received was a far cry from the joyous peal of laughter that he had hoped for. Consequently he, too, was depressed and silent. After Harrlet had gone to school the next morning Mrs, Martin, with the air of a defiant culprit, took the bone of contention into her mother's room. “Now, ien't it a pretty dress?” she asked, belligerently. { “Indeed it 18" sald Grandmother | Hilton with enthusiasm. “It's just as | pretty as it can be, but it Is rather different from the way most of the girls’ dresses are made, isn't it?" “] wanted it to be different,” =aid Mrs. Martin, obstinately. “It is so much prettier than the way dresses are made now and I want Harrlet to have a little independence.” Grandmother Hilton smoothed out the soft folds gently. There was no hint of guile in her tone, nor was there in her sweet face when she spoke again. “Don’t you think it needs pressing, Genevieve?" she asked you let me 1un down to the Kitchen and smooth it out a little.” “Oh. will vou, mother?”" said Mrs Martin gladly. “It does r <in and I'm <o rushed thi it 1 don’t see how T'll get time to do it Grandmother Hilton's face was still as innocent as that of a newborn babe when she lLegan gently to run! the iron over the delicate little feock. | It was surely no fault of hers that | she was suddenly the victim of an at- ‘ tack of sneezing. It was not until she | had sneezed three times rather de- lberately that she remembered she had left the hot iron resting on the | filmy frock. When she lifted it the imprint of the whole iron showed plainly. In one place the material was burned quite through! Mutely she gathered up the dress and meekly she laild the evidence of her evil do- ings before her daughter. “I'm afraid I'm getting very care- less and forgetful, dear,” she sald contritely. “It was unforgivable” Mrs. Martin’s feelings were too deep for words. It was a very happy, gay Harriet who danced out of the house that afternoon on her way to the party, wearing her beloved little old frock that was “just like the other girls'” Her mother and her grandmother watched her lovingly until she hed trotted around the corner. Then Mrs. Martin’s expression became slightly cynical. “What a fortunate accident that was for Harriet!™ she sald as she turned anq left the wicked grandmother on the stepe. “Suppose HE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAKELAND, FLA., : day?” AUG. 28, 1913, By Imitation The maiden aunt had come to call. It was very early for callers, but Mrs. Marsh knew that the maiden aunt needed help, so she left the baking and went to her cheerfully. The aunt looked quite worn out, and very near- Iy distracted. But what can you ex- pect when a person without previous experience steps in and tries to take care of four healthy children for |ix| weeks? The aunt had been there only two weeks, but such weeks! “What is the reason,” said the aunt almost tearfully, “that yours are so good, and mine are so bad? Why, do know, the twins were actually fighting this morning, and Edith is so horsid and selfish. She won't let Ed-{ na ‘ouch a thing, and Edna cries when nothing at all is the matter.” 't you give them something to do’" asked Mrs. Marsh. "It what?” said the maiden aunt. Oh! anything. If ti ey suggest any- thing, let them do it if you possibly cun. If not, you suggest something. If your invention runs out, you might look out of the window, and see what mine are doing.” She beckoned the aunt to a window. A hum of busy voices arose from the lawn below. “Why, they're washing.” “Yes, it's the doll clothes, and the boys, not to be behindhand, are wash- ing their baseball suits.” “RBut they will get their clothes =oll- ed.” “Yeg, they're bound to do that in any cuse. They have on their rom-| pers and gingham aprons, so it won't matter. After tiie washing is llr)'.i there will be tle ironing, so you see | they will be busy all day.” | “I'm going right home, auml ask'! mine if they want to wash things" “They will want to. And then to- orrow if yon can't think of anything, you might teleg over, and find out what we are o The aunt depa you ed with hope in her hearing Her vo charges agreed | to the wash-day prog 1 with the en- | thusiasm of children who have been repressed for two wecks, She took | off the pretty clothes in which she | had been keeping them, and searched | out the despised rompers. Then the! children, with arms full of doll clothes, i went out to the back lawn and wash- | ed themselves into a state of quiet | good nature. The dinner hour was | absolutely peaceful. The aunt took | th&m ur:tairs afterward and told | them stories. Then it was time for the bath and bed The next day a cautions inquiry went over the telephone, “What to- “They're working in their gardens,” | was the answer “Children, huve you any gardens? said the aunt. : They had had some, but investiga tion showed that they had disappeared under the onslaught of the weeds. The aunt, who was really a clever person, clothed the reclaiming work in the guise of a battle against iusidious dra- gons that wanted t~ eat up the lovely flower maidens. With thelr little tools and watering pots the children worked with a will. When a plot was nicely cleaned the aunt trapsplanted some blooming petunius from the mother's garden. The petunias stood the trans. planting nicely. They were too thick in the garden anyway, and besides the children now had immediate results to show for their work. ® The next day's inquiry showed that Mrs. Marsh’s children were playing milkman with a tub of water and all the measuring cups in the house “You'll find that children will play anything that allows them to splash in | the water.” said Mrs. Marsh. “For | this you'd better put on thelr h:\thlng‘ suits.” | “This can be a lesson in nmthemat-1 e too,” id the aunt as she gave em gill N irt, and gallon meas- | ures.
