Ketehum in the Argonant T think it may bo stated, without foar of successful contradiction, that at no period of a man’s existendd does Cupid’s dart strike so deeply and cause so much slooplessnoss as at tho age of one score, or thereabout. I have known quite a number of young men of avout that age to be deeply, passionately, desperately inlove, and ultimately to recover and go through similar but less agonizing experiences soveral times thereafter. But, as I said, they never, in a single in- stance, suffered hall so much from sub- sequent attacks as from that first expo- rience. Not that they love less, but their capacity for suffering has dimin- ished-—~which is something to be thank- ful for, for a man who could suffor at onch recurrence of the complaint as much as he did at the first would die of tho second or third relapse. The victim of this first attack is a pitiable creature, particularly when there are ‘‘obstacles,” which is usually tho caso. 1 always feel very sorry for a chap in this sort of a pickle, and 1 felt partic- ularly sorry for.poor Shorty Floming. I knew I ought not to encourage him, but ho was such a good little beggar, and so much in earnest, that I would have de- fied a far more severe man than his brother Jack for his sake. Besides, Shorty was not one of the chaps who got over anything easily, and I knew failure would go hard with him. = Moreover, Jack wus not the only “‘obstucle.” Sam Parker, Shorty’s Nottie’s papa, also ob- jected. He was not a stern, unreasona- ble [mrcnm, by any means, but his ob- jections, even if presented goodnatured- ly, were none the less formidable. Par- Kor was a shrewd Maine Yankee, with a total disbelief in the ability of woman- kind to use reason, and a record of some sixty years of devotion to an earnest hustle for the fascinating but elusive American dollar. Nettie was the only daughter and the youngest child in a family of soven, and the old man, close- fisted as he was, had spared no expense in educating her liberally. It was only natural, therefore, for him to object, es- pecially as Nettie was barely eightoen, and has only been out of school a fow months. He called on Jack ono afternoon, not casually, as he usually called,on his way to or from town, but with a direct pur- pose. Jack was under the weather, and lay on the sofa. I was reading to him when Parker walked in. “Howdy, Flemin’, laid up, air ve? Howdy, Faber; purty . warm, ain’tit? Thanks, I will set a_spell.” And he sat down on the edge of a chair and began tracing figures on the foor with his big spur, He seemed nervous, and I rose to leave the room, but he waved his hand and said: ‘*Set down, Faber. Set still. Guess L ain’t got nothin’ t’ say but what ve mout ez well hear.” Here the old man stiffened up in his seat and stated the object of his mission, in a good natured, but thoroughly de- cided way, closing with ‘‘Naow, Flemin’, 1 ain’t no 'bjection to th’ leetle feller—not one mite; he's a tip- top good boy an’ all that. But ’tain’t in reason th’t I’m goin’ t’spena more’n three thousan’ dollars ci&dicnlin’ a young un’, an’ then let ’er go an’ marry nother young ’un ’thout ary red. An’ that’s what it’ll come tew, fust thing we know.” Now, Parker’s remarks were in the nature of a revelation to us, Of course we knew Shorty had put in a good many evenings at the Parker ranch, but we had never guessed that his visits there had any significance. A courtship, too, with six big brothers loafing around is adifficult matter. It is easy onough to fall—just full—in love with a girl if there isno one to hinder. But with six young men, with whom one is on sood terms, sitting around and occupying a large portion of one’s attention, itisa matter of getting in love, which, accom- plished, is rather more serious than a mere fallinto the same. Fleming sat up and ran his fingers through his hair geavely. Then: ‘1 quite agree with you, Mr. Parker. I don’t know what to say to Percy, but 1 will try a littlo strategy and see if he can be kept at home more. If that won’t do, I can talk to him.” And here began my connection with Shorty’s love affmr. That evening I was writing busily when some one opened the door to my den and walked in. It was Shorty. He sat down quietly and took up a paper, which he looked at for several minutes, while I scratched away at my work. Then he threw the paper down suddenly and turned to me with: *‘Faber, what was old Parier here for today?” Itried to dissemble, but Shorty is no- body’s fool, and interrupted: ‘‘O, rot!” said he; “I reckon you think I'm a suck- ?r.w Now honestly, what was he here or?” Finally, I told him about the conver- sation between his brother and Parker. He was silent for several minutes. [ could see his face twitch, Then he turned his face toward me and said,slow- ly: *‘Faber, [ know I'm young and all that, but—I know my own mind, Juck’s a good brother and feels in duty bound to take care of me, put [ guess I can ’tend to that myself. T—I've made up mp mind to marry that girl, if she’ll havo me, and all the Jacks and Sam Parkers in the world can’t stop me.” And Mr. Percival Fleming set his mouth and walked out. He called at Parker’s the next morning despite Jack’s “steategy.” There was another caller at Parker’s that evening, in the person of Morris Cottrell, a wealthy rancher from up the “Five-Mile.” Shurlr, when he got home, mentioned this fact to me, with sbme feeling in his tones. Cottrell wus no old duffer. He was aman of 30, well- read, and a gentleman, and the prospect of having him for a rival would have sent despair to the heart of any penni- less young man less determited than Shorty Floming. For two or three months Shorty con- tinued his calls at Parker’s, growing more and more gloomy and savage as the days went by, for old Sam Parker wis something of a strategist, and man- aged to keep the poor lad from getting usingle private interview with Nettie, theroby giving Cottrell a clear field, which was evidently satisfactory to the latter, although he did unot seem to make much progross, One evening Shorty came to my room in a state of mind, He had seen Sum Parker that day fand the latter had told him, as gently us possible, some galling truths about his age and his penniless condition, concluding with the cheerful information that he “‘reckoned that Net hed bout d'cided to take up with Cottrell, anyheow.” Of course Shorty was despondent, but he was none the less determined. ‘aber, 'm going to see her tomorrow afternoon and—aud ask her,” The time and hour favored Shorty; but I hardly think Nettie knew her own mind. The boy who came riding slowly home through the shadows next eve- was a very much downcast boy, indeed, He told me all ubout it, later; how Nettie had wavered,and finally told him that she could give no nuswer. She cured a great duurfur him, she said, but she was nou sure she cared enough for him. Besidos, hor father objected to him, and she could father's wishes, when he had done so much for her. Sam Parker must have heard of this interview, and_made up his mind to do something. Although he was usually s0 good-natured, ho was as detormined as n bull dog, and I thing he used somo influence in deciding matters, for, two weeks later, he “dropped in™ to tell Juck that Nettie and Cottrell would be marriod on Thanksgiving day, two months later. Shorty must have seen the news in my face, for, after supper, he drew mo asida and asked what I knew. T hated to tell him, but did so, the best way 1 could. The poor lad stood still as stone for several seconds. Then,with a shudder- ing sob, he turned away. In the morns ing he was gone, with his horse and clothes, leaving no word. Jack and Joe, the other brother, wora much worried, but, as Jack now for the first time acknowledged, *‘the boy could tako of himself. Jack and I talked it over during the day, und he oxprossed n groat deal of re- gret, thinking, howover, that Nottio had decided for herself, and that Shorty had no one to blame for his faiture. *It it had been different, ” ho went on, “und Percy had porsevered and won, I would have given in, and I think Parker would too, for next year Peroy will come into about $15,000. You see, I've never told him of it, because I wanted him to grow up on his merits and bo self-reliant. 1 think it has been for the best. Joo nevor knew, until he was of age, that he had unything, and we didn't tell Peroey of it then, becauso ho was only seventoon. Joe put his money into_the ranch hera and kept quiet about it.” He sat silent for a mioute, then con. tinued: *'Of course, thisis between ou selves. But—do you know, I wish tha bov had won. He's a good deal of a man, and, now I como to think of it, the affair has hit him hard. They could have waited a couplo of yeurs, you kuvow.” And Jack walked off slowly, taking long whiffs at his pipe Saveral! wesla - passed,/duting, which I saw Nettie Parker sevoral times. She seemed difforent. Her laugh was not the jolly laugh I had been accustomed to hear, and she seemed ponsive at times, Was it her approaching wed- ding, or—Shorty? 1 boped it was Shorty. But, somehow, when people pine they seem to lose color and get thin, and Nettie Parker did neither. And still no word from Shorty, and the day for the wedding only a week awny it was Wednesday of Thanksgiving week, and there had been great propn: rations at Parker’s. The people for miles around had been invited to the weading, which old Sam **’lowe would be “th’ bang-uppest thing tney ever hod In th’ kentry.” I rodeinto town to buy, on behalf of Jack and my- self, something to present to the bride- elect. Iu the postoftice, somo one tapped me on the shoulder, I turned. It was Shorty Fleming—Shorty, with a hand- somo mustache, and smiling quite hup- y. s **How long before you're going out?” he asked. “Right now.” “Buily! Faber, go and borrow a horse until tomorrow—tell 'em yours is lame, and you’ll have to lead him. No- boly has recognized me back of this overcoat collar and the hirsute adorn- ment, and I don’t want ‘em to. “I'll walk out and head up the rond. Hurry up with the horses.’ Tn about twenty minutes I was follow- ing him, riding & hovse I had borrowed from my friend the doctor, and leading my own. 18oon caught up with Shorty. and we hurried on. Shorty showed me a letter signed **Neottie,” and proceeded to unfold a plan he had in mind, which, for the quality of pure ‘*necve,”T had never heard surpassed. There was nobody at the house but Manuel, the cook, and Shorty soon had him sworn to silence, after which he proceeded to camp 1n the cold little up- stairs store room off my den, where no- body could find him. Jack was not to know of his presence, he said, ‘‘hecause Jack is so thundering honest and persnickety, and would squall or spoil the io 34 * * * * The half-hundred guests at Parker’s Thad been enjoying hanksgiving day to the full. AIl of Mrs, Parket’s good things had becn stowed away where they would do tho most good. The minister from town was getting ready for the ceremony, and the guests were bustling about, amid some confusion, trying to find the best points for observation, Nettie Parker, palo for once, stood near the front door, pulling her fingers nervously, waiting, suppos- edly, for her fathor. Some one knocked at the door. Nettie pulled it open, gave a little cry, grabbed a man’s hat from the back of a chair and an overcoat from a peg near by, and rushed out, slamming the door. Iivery- body who saw the performance stood still, dazed. Then, as we heard horses’ hoofs clattering up the roau, there was arush for the outside. Up the road, disappeuring fast, were two horses, whose riders were ovidently in a hurry. ‘Thero was another rush—this time for the stables—led by old Sam Parker. But, somechow, the doors would not open. They had been nailed up, very securely, by a person who was at that moment making hypocritical efforts to get one of them open, When they finally succeeded in mount- ing two. orthree men for pursuit, the runaways had three or four miles start, At this juncture, Cottrell, as cool us if he had never thought of attending his own wedding, came up and spoke quietly to old man Parker, who was so dazed that ho had notopened his niouth so far. The old man started. “By gorry, Morris, mebbe that’s c’rect, " No use yowlin’ over spilt milk. Come on boys.” And they rode off, but not very rapidly. I told the old gentleman,” remarked Cottrell to me, ns we turned toward the house, *‘that it was nouse trying to head them off. They’'ll be married inside of an hour.” Then, in a tone that enter- tained no truce of bitterness, ho con- tinued: *It is far better to have happened now than—than later. And—=as it is—I think maybe there will be only one unhappy person, instead of three.” That was Morris Cottrell—philosopher and. man, Mr, and Mrs. Percival Fleming were met at the justice’s office by old Sum Parker, who remarked: *“Wasal, [ swow! Yew air a nervy boy! Ain’t ye both ashamed on’t?” No, they were noi; and, after Nettie had had a good ery in her father’s arms, the runawnys were escorted buek to the Parker ranch to receive the congratula- tions of their friends, foremost among whom was Morris Cottrell. A Close Calt, Mr. J. P. Blaize, an extensive veal estate dealer in this city, narrowly escaped oue of tho severost attacks of poeumonia while in the northern part. of the state during the ro- cent blizzard, Mr, Blaize hau occasion to arive several miles during the storm and was 80 thorouglily chilled that he was unable to get warm, and insido of an hour after bis re- turn he was threatencd with a severe caso of pueumonia, or long fever. Mr. Blaize seat 10 the nearest drug store aud got s botkio of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, of which he bad often neard, aud took & number of large doses. e the effect was wonderful and that in a short time he was oreathing quite easily. He kept on taking the medicine and the next day was avle to come to Des Moines.
