THAT OTKER W3MAH By ARTHUR B0LTONWOOD. ! The frosty Ociober day made IP‘.:*: crackling fire on the hearth very cozy and very cheerful. They before it, Bob Standizh and Dett nold, two very happy, carefre dren for the time being his fingers into his vest pocket ar drew cut a little cise of morocco. | “I got the one 1 wanted, Betty,” said he. “I made 'em take it out of’ that pendant. There wasn't unolher; one like {t.” ! He snapped open the cover of the case and the dancing flames burned in a thousand many colored reflections in the heart of a perfect diamond. Standish reached over for a girl's i slim hand, but to his utter. amaze- ment she drew it back—very gently jbut with determination. Glancing up he saw her eyes were troubled. “Oh, just a moment - just a moment before you put it on my finger, dear,” she breathed quickly. “I—I—don't know just how to say it. I'm afraid.” “Afraid?” he echoed with a boyish laugh. “Of what, you dear little Miss Tease.” “Honestly, Beb " she panted, as he would hive snatched her to him. “Oh please—just a minute—let me be sure!" She drew away from him. Her face was just the least bit twisted as with pain—for him. | “Yes, that’s just it,” she said with downcast eyes. “I want to be certain that I am sure of you.” “Betty!” he cried reproachfully. But still she held him off. “I've—I've heard something,” she sald. “I don't belleve it, but it—it hurts. It will hurt till you let me| know it isn’t so.” i He scowled. “Who's been talking | now?” he said almost harshly. “Mrs. Malvern.” | “That—that trouble-monger!” “Bob!" “Well, what has she been saying?"| The girl stared long into the fire | Bob Standish saw she was biting her | under lip. ! “I wouldn't listen to her nor h.-lit-vviL it,” she sald at last. “Still 1 had to, hear some of the things—and—and- thinking them over—the few 1 did hear—I'm afrald; just the weenlest bit afrald, dear. She said you were' buying a whole lot of flowers every | Thursday at Rondeau's—that you'! went away every Thursday in your car right after lunch and-—and that you didn't get back until dinner time She said you always wore your heart | on your sleeve and that- -Bob!" she | said suddenly sitting very straight, “tell me it isn't go. It's hurt--awful- ly; more than I'd admit.” | His own face became very grave, | He kicked back an ember that came hurtling across the hearth. “About wearing my heart on my sleeve--that isn't so,” he said. “About the flowers—well, I'll have to admit them.” She looked up quickly. Ha wasn't | looking at her. She felt some vague sense of something dreadful {mpend- ! ing “Oh,"” she sald. “And perhans 1 had best explain about them before T put the ring on” sald he. She waited silently for bhim to go | on. She did noi know she was press- | ing her hande tightly together “It's Ny rizhit, dearfe,” he sald quietly last. “She's an old friend of tho femile Her people have met reverses, She's jiving on gamely, | Ar- chil- Star pluckily. on what wns left.

T might as well own up, and I take her for a spin in| the car for a few hours—out to Mil. ville. or over the old turnpike to that | cozy little inn at Bridgton for tea. It makes her forget. It's so very little | 1 do and so entirely innocent. You've forgiven me already, haven't you?" “T—I don’t know.” said she rather hoarsely. She noticed he stiffened a bit. Then | he grinned: she thought to cover his embarrassment “She is here in town then all the time?" she asked “Oh, yes.” “Ts ghe pretty?” He wrinkled his brows as of de-| bating a point in his mind “Beautiful is a better word." said he | Again she looked up. His face wns: all ashine. She turned away that he | might not see how badly was hurt. “I don’t know why 1 have not told you all this before” said he. “The very fact I haven't shows how lightly I thought of it. T have meant to tell you at different times, and I certainly | should have told you before we were | married, because I want to buy her | those flowers every Thursday just the | same and take her for the spin.

In the evening before retie ing you set the clock for 6:30; at 6:30 you will probably get up. lere is what will waken you: “Six: thirty six-thirty, six-thirty; time to get up: get up. can't you? Get up you miserable, lazy man. Get up, get up, get up!” The first clock of this kind was ex- hibited in 1900, but it cost $2,500 to make it. The present offering costs $25. If you are awake in the middle of the night and wish to know the time, press a button and the clock will tell you the nearest quarter hour as: “Two-fifteen,” if it happens too be 2:13 or 2:18. The phonographic record is on an endless belt and the grooves in which the voice vibrations are record- ed run lengthwise of the belt. The belt continues to give cut sound until shut off when once started.
