By CLYDE JOHNSON, A woman thirty vears old who in- vents poetry, has a cat and a canary, scorns the hobble skirt and has taken a vow never to marry, comes so near being an old maid that she may be herewith graded in that class. A man thirty-two years old, who feels that he has a mission o write a book, and who keeps a bulldog, owns seven different canes—has a cuckoo clock and laughs at the idea of woman being intelligent enough to vote, will pass in any country as an old bache- lor. Her name was Amanda Jane Dillon —good old-fashion Amanda Jane—and when addressed by her landlady she wanted the Jane to follow the Amanda in natural sequence. She had an in- come, and she had a rented flat and a cook. The cook was also rented by | the month. His name was Perry Chase Perry. Iis parents had so named him when into consideration. There were two flats. There was a distance of ten feet between them, but the building of the escapes huad cut the distance down to six fore, when Amanda Jane got ber e=cape, and Perry Chase Perry out on his, they would look into ¢ other's ey and read the s fact was d 3 fi%URTSHIP’ Love-1.aking on a Fire Escape | LLAND, l-‘I.A\., SEPT. ¥, 1812 ‘fiveat smakos, a woman!” Jlercy on me, @ man!” “And an oid maid, or I'm a goat!” “And an old bachelor, as I live!” “Ily George, but I'll move out tomor- row, lease or no lease!” “He'll elther go or I will!” There might have been more mental exclamations between the cowple but for the cat and dog. They caught sight of each other, and the one began to apit and the other to bark. It bas ever been so and always will be. In a min- ute the hubbub caused twenty heads, male and female, to appear at twenty different windows, and the mouths be- longing to those respective heads opened to emit words of different lengths and meanings. The bleached blondes led the procession, as usual: “Git on to his dorg!” “Put your dough on pussy!” “He's getting bald-headed!” “She's living on anti-fat!” Mister Perry Chase Perry chased in. In the morning he would lick every tenant in his flat and then sue the landlord for enormous damages. Amanda Jane chased in. In the morning she would also see a lawyer. ¢he would not only see one about the lzndlord, but ahout the man who had so brazenly occupled the other fire es- A;m Had he remained in his rooms | all would have been well. It was be- | cause of him she had been insulted in that outrageous manner and shel would lay her damages at $20,000 and | not a cent less. When morning came, however, no one visited a lawyer and no suits were begun. A night's reflection had brought different plans. For the next three evenings the escapes were va- cant, and the twenty tenants who were watching for more fun gave up in despair. On the fourth evening Amanda Jane and her cat and pad and pencll reappeared. Five minutes later Perry Chase Perry and his bulldog and cane and pad and pencil showed up. “There she is!” he whispered to himself. “The brazen thing!™ she whispered to herself. “Darn an old mald, anyhow!"” | “He's been jilted for sure!” | The cat and the dog saw each other | from the first, but made no hostile | moves. They are not to be depended on (0 act twice allke under the same circumstances, It was very quiet. | Amanda Jane sat with her head down and thought and thought and made strenuous efforts to find a rhyme for the word “huckleberry,” and Perry Chase Perry invented and rejected a dozen different names for the book he would some day write, Just one ten- ant looked out of her window, and after a peer and a peek she drew her head In ond mused to herself: “Now, iiien, why don't they coo and ! he sencible? I never heard of two peo- p!o falling in love on a fire escape, but | it can be done.” i There was just five minutes more of the heavenly peice, and then the bull | dog suddenly rernembered the cat. The ;(;n Lad climbed up on the railing of | the escape and was blinking her eyes in sleop. The bark of the dog, and { the rosh he made gave her a scare | #nd she lost her hold and went down to destruction ams from Amanda , and then she fainted, |\h! from Perry Chase Perr; fool of a dog leaped the ;ml went down after the cat.

If she dles I can never forgive myself!" “My cat!” exclaimed Amanda Jane, as she sat up, “Dead, and so is my bulldog!" “But you—you—" “I rushed up here without a second'’s delay.” “But your dog?” “What is the welfare of a bulldog compared to that of a lady?” “You are «o, so kind!" da Jane as she let him hold her hand. Three evenings later, as one fire escape helid both people, that same woman looked out of her window again and saw them ard drew back to smile and say: “I knew they could fall in love, and they have!
