He kept taking one more look at the girl: her attention being centered upon a book. By the time the train reached his station he was deeply in- terested in her. He vaguely remem- bered having seen her on his morning train at intervals, but never before had she sat within the direct range ot his vision. The next morning he took special pains to catch that same train. Mif- fin was sitting near the door of the car and dragged him into a seat be- side him. However, Wagstaff lost all interest in Miffin’s baseball chatter as the train neared the station where the girl had entered on the previous morning. He craned his neck to scan the waiting passengers on the plat- form. Miffin looked at him curiously. “Expecting somebody to get on here?” Miffin asked. “Oh, no,” Wagstaft said hastily. thought I saw some one I knew.” Then, to his unmeasured delight, the girl came demurely in with the crowd and found a seat almost oppo- site them. Miffin followed Wagstafl's enraptured glance. *“Is that the party you thought you knew?” he asked. “Well, no,” Wagstaff said guiltily, | “but I wouldn’t mind.” After that it got to be a regular thing every morning for Wagstaff to watch for the girl and then to steal glances at her all the way to his sta- tion. She looked at him so calmly in gazing around the car day after day that he thought despairingly that she didn’t know he was on earth. Just when he was lusing hope of ever getting acquainted with her something happened. One morning she got off at a station which the train reached befcre it arrived at Wagstaff's,. More than that, Wag- staff saw a long handled umbrella resting against the window frame of the seat that she had just left, “What shall 1 do?" the young man asked himseif. “Shall I take her um- brella with me for safe keeping, or: shall T turn it in at the lost and found office? In either cage—" | With a fast beating heart he pos. sessed himself of the forgotten um- brella. On mature consideration he decided that it would be best to turn it in to the company in the usual way and take a chance on future favorable developments A week later the developments came. On a windswept elevated platform one evening, several stations distant from the one nearest his of- fice, Wagstaff found himselt alone with the girl. For an Instant her glance lingered, and there was a sort of recognition in it as their eyes met. Wagstaff acted on the moment's impulse, all the hero in his makeup coming to the front. “I beg your pardon,” he said, ad- vancing a step, hat in hand, “but did you recover the umbrella you left on the train a few days ago? I turned it in at the lost and found depart- ment-—" She started a little with surprise as he spoke, and then she smiled gra- | clously. “Why, yes, thank you,” she | sald. “I—I got it. Was it you who, d 1t? It was awfully good of' “y “Not at all.* deelared Wagstaff, | Just then the train came in and! he helped her aboard. They sat down | together and their acquaintance pros- | pered. i In ten minutes he found that she ' knew half a dozen of hig own friends. | \While things were a little bit uncon- | ventional, she concluded finally that | he might call. ! Wagstaff called and found two of the friends there to vouch for him Then he tock pains to call again. | when he was certain the frivnds’ wouldn't be there. Since the girl chose the time for the call it is pos- sible that she didn't want them there either, Two or three months later as she and Wagstaff were standing in her front hall one night counting the hooks on the hatrack and otherwise joying themselves, the pirl said: ¥, I've heard of a lot of ways that young men get acquainted with girls they want to meet, but that umbrella plan of yours makes a hit with me every time I think of it." “What do you mean?" Wagstff ask- ed a bit feebly. “Why. you innocent child.” she said, emiling, “I never lost any umbrella on the elevated train!"—Chicago Daily News. ———— He Tipped Again, He was very affable and free with his opinions, was this young man, but that was about all he was free with. To the man who had carried his not un- heavy bag to the little countryside station he had given one whole penny. Notwithstanding the forlorn look u.n the man's face, he still continued to chat in an easy manner. “I shall g_fz\-v;m'{nt;mgonpn“eg relieves the and big quality and consistent prices Many special holiday » unique and original in design, rich and artistic in Prices | dose of Family Tea, wind the clock, ndor of the scenery when I was in Switzerland.

Following the publication of an ae- count of a disaster which has recently befallen a great colony of herons which occupied a small island of about three acres in the marsh near Charles- ton, S, (., a public-spirited woman has contributed $100 toward the purchase of the island. On the island from one thousand to three thousand herons of five different kinds—including the snowy egret, the rarest and most beautiful of all the heron tribe—ha¢ their homes and reared their young. A brief time ago the owner of the itland, an Atlanta man, practically wiped out the heronry by having the bushes which covered the place cut away and the island planted ‘in oats. Today two or three hundred herons still breed In the few bushes that re- main on the island, while it is believed that the greater number of the birds have ¢:tablished themselves on anoth- er islaud near by, it All Depended. Fair zabeth tripped blithely into the country postoffice, “Now, I want to know,” she demand- ed, with a tell-tale blush, as she hand- ed the clerk a pink communication ad- dresscid to her lover, “how long it will re [ get an answer to this let- “That depends,” he answered. “If he's in izil they will let him write once a week or, maybe. once a month only.

It is easier to bank anything else we know of. We have been able to bank anything excepting a fire for several years. Place the ashes in the flour sifter and thus sprinkle them | carefully over the coals. Three tea- cupfuis for a small furnace, the kind that zoes out every five minutes, and | five teacupfuls for one of the battle- ship variety.

The name of the person who first put the words “Go west, young man,” together in that order has not found place in any record. It matters lit- tie, anyhow. The phrase belongs to Horace Creeley, it was his enuncia- tion of it that gave it currency, and any past history of the advice may most propecly be neglected, OAFE: REMEDY ENDS CATARRH MISERIES Giveg Instant Relief, Cures and Pre. vents Catarrh and Cold in the Head.
