The daughter of the household, aged eleven, looked up trom her book as the man caller came into the library. “How do you do, Mr. Dearmore,” she sald, getting up politely. “You might as well take a comfortable chair because sister won't be down for ages. She e always slow about getting dressed and 1 suppose now she'll be slower than ever because she won't care if she does keep you waiting.” “Well, why shouldn't she care, I'd like to know ?” inquired the caller with an assumption of surprise designed to be comic. The young person hitched a little closer to him in her eagerness. “I just found out!” she told him, “tonight. I guess they weren't going to tell me, but slster was so interested in brush- ing out her switch that she didn’t no- tice me and mother said: ‘You might have done better if you'd more ambi- tion, but, thank heaven, you're engaged And sister sald yes, it was at last!’ time and she'd have to make the best of it.

The young person nodded her head. “It's awfully exciting to have an en- gaged person in the family, We never had one before. I held my hand over my mouth to keep from asking right out who it was, but I knew if I spoke they'd make me go away—and then all they sald was that where the trooser was coming from if dad didn't make a killing goodness only knew. What's a trooser?” “A sort of feminine delirium, I be- lieve,” the young man told her. “Wouldn’t you like to read out loud to me from your book?" “Not when I can talk,” the young person assured him, promptly. “I'd think it was Bob Samson, only he hasn’t been here for ages. He's riding around a ranch out West now and he always brought me chocolates and petted the dog and waited hours and hours for sister. Mother told her one day for goodness’ sake when she got her hands oh that huge old Samson house to burn it down and put up an- other one with a French gray drawing room, and other things, but I guess Bob slipped a cog somehow—"" “Er—whai?” “Well, Aunt Clara sald to mother that & cog In the wheels must have slipped somehow and how did he ever get away and wasn't it a pity! So I B attention to by every doctor suppose Bob did it. I always liked his chocolates—he brought me just as good ones as he brought sister. Some- times they try to pass off cheap candy on me, but I know! Then I feed it to the dog. “I'm glad it wasn't that Siddens man. He always called me ‘little one’ and patted my head and he had bron- chitis and always coughed before he spoke, and sister said she didn't care if he was rich, but she couldn’t endure a man who wore brown ties and ate grapefruit with a fork and anyhow he gave her the shivers. That was the time mother ecolded so and sister went to Aunt Clara’s for a month. “I'm surprised gt her getting en- gaged, because she'll have to have a house and mealy then and she says picking out things to eat is simply awful and she wouldn’t wear her life away keeping down the grocery bills for any man and he might as well make up his mind to it. Anyhow, sis- ter never loses her head, because mother says so, and she'll make him toe the mark. Mother says that with her sweet smile sister could make a man believe white was black, but that seems foolish. Wouldn't you know black if you saw it?” “I used to think I was able to dis- tinguish colore,” admitted the caller. “But you're different,” sald the young person. ‘It {sn't as though you 11 atched Him Wander Around It. only our best behaved convict and emouthed as a clam, during the year he has changed.” ow changed?” I asked. e has become ‘queer.’ As a good- it man we put him at keeping outgo list of goods in the shoe ory, He was famous for his ac- y until a twelvemonth since, b he began to make mistakes.

RULES FOR PROPER SPEECH Art of Conversation Is Something That Is Worth Taking Some Pains to Acquire. 1'ngrammatical gentences often are spoken in the sweetest voice, and glangy or even coarse words come fre- quently from geemingly refined per- gons.
