City Consolidated Gas com- pany turning highwayman and rob bing the mails lIe glanced at his watch and made- a hasty calculation It was four min- utes past three There was a three oclock delivery and the letter was probably in it But Miss Hayden was not yet home from school The ses sion was over at three oclock to be sure but what conscientious teach- er had no unruly boys to keep in nor other afterschool duties to perform Abbott decided that she would not be home before 330 at the earliest- It would take him about 15 minutes- to reach her house This would give him at least ten minutes grace in vhtchio bribe the to obtain possession of that letter by hook or by crook and get away unseen by the mistress of the house The en- velope was fortunately stamped with the companys name which

and was clutching that letter in an eager grip He had just time to thrust it into his pocket before he heard her footstep on the stairs Red and agitated he toqjc her hand I I beg your pardon Miss Hay- den glad to see you I thought I would drop see if you wouldnt if you wouldnt take a walk that is a ride I am feeling u little worn out you know and a trip to the park occurred to me as a bracer Wont

couldnt understand his embarrassment T v Why you see my father she began doubtfully Then she remem bered that her father had noticed the paleness of her cheeks and had advised her several times to do this very take afternoon rides to the park Why yes I think it would be de- lightful she exclaimed with a touch of enthusiasm in her voice It is such a beautiful afternoon I am very glad to get away

I put it there with me own hands Katy came down stairs and Abbott experiencing emotions such as he imagined must be those of the ama teur sneak thief made a feint at aiding search for the lost let ter He was intensely relieved when Miss exclaimed Well look for it when I am gone Katy It will surely turn up some where After the first half hour in the park Abbott forgot the letter except now and then and he forgot the self consciousness that had herotofore overwhelmed him in all his efforts when in the of this girl They were getting along famously She was in high spirits the wall of reserve seemed to have been a mere phantom wall They went rowing and were remote from the landing in a little inlet where the trees on either side mingled their branches overhead and made it seem like twi light Here was the time and place he felt He would be several varieties of a fool not to take advantage of this opportunity He prepared to speak out and felt the perspiration- on his brow This rowing was rather warm work after all He drew his handkerchief pocket In its folds it brought the letter which fluttered down at Miss Haydens feet The blood rushed to his face He was afraid to look at the letter or at her Youve dropped a letter she said calmlj Like one who takes a plunge into icy water he glanced down The blank side had fallen upward With an assumption of carelessness he picked it up and then to give vent to his feelings began to row stren- uously In a moment they were in open water again his mind was no longer in condition for a declaration and a golden opportunity on a golden afternoon was gone Just cross that Hayden bill off your list Samuel its attended to directed Abbott the next day in the office He did not intend that Miss Hayden should be bothered by any more bills if he could help it and he had formed a resolution so in tense that it was grim to make an attempt to help it without further parley or delay It was about four in the afternoon when Samuel rose with alacrity from his typewriter and stood grinning at the counter as he always did at the approach of a feminine patron of the company- I came to pay my bill said Miss Hayden opening her purse I am afraid a overdue but Oh thats all right interrupted Samuel you dont owe us anything your bills paid Paid But that cant be I dont understand Well our secretary knows all about it You had better see him Come right this way The zealous Samuel threw open the glass door of Abbotts office with a bow and the young man and the young stood face to face He was on his own ground here and was wholly at his ease while she was very much em barrassed He took the hand that she almost unconsicously held out and led her to a chair You may go now he said to Samuel But Samuel did not go very far has ears that out from his head inquisitively and was able to gather a very fair idea of what transpired on the other side of that glass door Samuel wont tell It is enough to say that in the near fu- ture Miss Hayden will not have to pay any more bills nor even to teach school The expression of care has given place to one of happiness in her big blue Y Times They Blood While a fair was being held re- cently in a small town in Belgium the owner of a menagerie announced that one of the villagers who was known to possess great courage would enter that evening a cage con- taining two lions and remain there 15 minutes When this was noised abroad every one determined to witness the novel sight and as a result there were several hundred persons in front of the lions cage when the began At a signal from the owner the courageous villager entered the cage and stood watching the lions They took not the slightest no tice of him and after 15 minutes had expired he left cage As he did so a storm of hisses greeted him and the next moment such an uproar arose that the owner summoned the police and the came to an end The fact was the people expected that the lions Would attack the vil lager they disappointed be cause no blood had been shed Stray Stories Alarmingly Capable Simpson Id be afraid to marry a girl like Miss Hopkins Jenkins Why Oh a girl who can run an auto mobile as she does would manage husband clear down to the

from above Why no It isntKaty

It must be maam insisted KatyThe postman gave it to me not tin

minutes ago and I put it there withme own hands

Katy came down stairs and Abbottexperiencing emotions such as heimagined must be those of the amateur sneak thief made a feint ataiding search for the lost letter He was intensely relieved whenMiss exclaimed

Well look for it when I am goneKaty It will surely turn up somewhere

After the first half hour in thepark Abbott forgot the letter exceptnow and then and he forgot the selfconsciousness that had herotoforeoverwhelmed him in all his effortswhen in the of this girlThey were getting along famouslyShe was in high spirits the wall ofreserve seemed to have been a merephantom wall They went rowingand were remote from the landingin a little inlet where the trees oneither side mingled their branchesoverhead and made it seem like twilight

Here was the time and place hefelt He would be several varietiesof a fool not to take advantage ofthis opportunity He prepared tospeak out and felt the perspiration-on his brow This rowing was ratherwarm work after all He drew hishandkerchief pocket In itsfolds it brought the letter whichfluttered down at Miss Haydens feetThe blood rushed to his face Hewas afraid to look at the letter or ather

Youve dropped a letter she saidcalmlj

Like one who takes a plunge intoicy water he glanced down Theblank side had fallen upward Withan assumption of carelessness hepicked it up and then to give ventto his feelings began to row stren-uously In a moment they were inopen water again his mind was nolonger in condition for a declarationand a golden opportunity on a goldenafternoon was gone

Just cross that Hayden bill offyour list Samuel its attended todirected Abbott the next day in theoffice He did not intend that MissHayden should be bothered by anymore bills if he could help it andhe had formed a resolution so intense that it was grim to make anattempt to help it without furtherparley or delay

It was about four in the afternoonwhen Samuel rose with alacrity fromhis typewriter and stood grinning atthe counter as he always did at theapproach of a feminine patron of thecompany-

I came to pay my bill said MissHayden opening her purse I amafraid a overdue but

Oh thats all right interruptedSamuel you dont owe us anythingyour bills paid

Paid But that cant be I dontunderstand

Well our secretary knows allabout it You had better see himCome right this way

The zealous Samuel threw openthe glass door of Abbotts officewith a bow and the young manand the young stood faceto face He was on his ownground here and was wholly at hisease while she was very much embarrassed He took the hand thatshe almost unconsicously held outand led her to a chair You maygo now he said to Samuel

But Samuel did not go very farhas ears that out from his

head inquisitively and was able togather a very fair idea of whattranspired on the other side of thatglass door Samuel wont tell It isenough to say that in the near fu-ture Miss Hayden will not have topay any more bills nor even to teachschool The expression of care hasgiven place to one of happiness inher big blue Y Times

They BloodWhile a fair was being held re-

cently in a small town in Belgiumthe owner of a menagerie announcedthat one of the villagers who wasknown to possess great couragewould enter that evening a cage con-taining two lions and remain there15 minutes

When this was noised abroad everyone determined to witness the novelsight and as a result there wereseveral hundred persons in front ofthe lions cage when the

beganAt a signal from the owner the

courageous villager entered the cageand stood watching the lions They

took not the slightest notice of him and after 15 minutes hadexpired he left cage

As he did so a storm of hissesgreeted him and the next momentsuch an uproar arose that the ownersummoned the police and the

came to an endThe fact was the people expected

that the lions Would attack the villager they disappointed because no blood had been shed StrayStories

Alarmingly CapableSimpson Id be afraid to marry

Oh a girl who can run an automobile as she does would manage
