While: Margery is of Dutch descent and inclined to’be cautious, if not a bit pig-headéd, as I often told her. But no one could help loving her, in spite of her little Dutch obstinacy, least of all myself, for of all the provoking little women. that-were ever created for the express: purpose of charming and tormenting their ‘fellow men Margery was the most deliciously dear, “and T loved her so well I could forgiveher anything. That is, anything but the. way she'treated Jack Beasley. “The dance she led that poor fellow was something to move even a bearded Turk to pity. For a whole year she had kept him dangling after her as abjectly asa dancing doll at the end of a string; and yet, as far as we could see, he had made no progress whatever in her aifecWevhad been talking things over, Jack, Ned and I, in Margery’s-absence Margery, for fear of still further exciting that famous obstinacy of hers), and even Ned, the most:hopeful of mortals, had to admit. Jack’s. chances looked blue. Ned, be it. known, was the daring youth who had undertaken to guide my New England enterprise ang other virtues (too' numerous fo mention) through life’s pilgrimage. He and Jack were partners in a law office, and occupied ‘the flat on the top floor, where they indulged in certain mysterious rites they called. light housekeeping, while Margery and I tanght music and Delsarte and practiced the modest’ virtues of hospitality in the flat below. '. Nothing, therefore, could haye been more fit, suitable and otherwise to be desired than to have Margery and Jack fall in love with each other, even as Ned and I had done, Jack was willing enough, poor boy, but Margery balked. It was too provoking. . As I said before, we three had been Margery. was absent:teaching the luckless children of a. rich soap manufacturer to play Wagner on the piano, and all agreed. that the situation looked hopeless. Jack had been: in the depths of despair because the tenor of the ehoir for which Margery played an organ had called three times that week, and, for the. tenor, I had never known' naughty Margery to appear more wilfully regardless of Jack’s feelings. We had parted, therefore, gloomily enough, after a fruitless conference, and I had relieved my mind by being especially cross to Margery all day, though I must own she didn’t seem to mind much, _ It was an awful day, raining cats and dogs, and in the afternoon I got tired of being cross all to myself, and proposed that we should shampoo our hair and dry it on. the parlor radiator, the only one in the flat large enough for the purpose. Of coursé, Margery objected. Visitors might come, she said, and then who would let:them in? I scouted the idea of visitors on such a day, utiless, I observed, with sarcasm, she. was expecting the tenor again. She didn’t. notice this stab, so I proceeded to say that as the radiator was in the corner we eould pull our big Japanese screen up in front of it, and, Parlors Broad opp. City Hall.

We -were armed with a novel apiece, but soon got to talking, girl fashion, and were deep in a diseussion of Amos Judd, when there came aloud knock at the door. “Great Scott!” I exclaimed, in a stage whisper, the rosy advantages of my plan suddenly fading in the cold light of reality, “There, I told you so!” cried Margery, ungenerously, sitting up abruptly so that her hair fell about her in a great, shining, coppery shower, “Sh—shut up!” I whispered, reaching Jout with an agitated stockinged toe for the bedroom slipper I had carelessly kicked off a moment before, Again the knock came, this time more imperative. “What in heaven’s name shall we do?” gasped Margery. “Keep still, you chump!” I said, sotto voce, too nervous to pick my words, Then the door handle turned and we heard Ned’s voice saying: ‘There’s nobody home.

Must. you go; old boy 9” “Well, it’s this way, Ned. As long as I hoped that Margery might care for me I wouldn’t give in to my uncle’s proposition that I should marry his ward, Miss Wilson, and become his heir, but now that I’m satisfied I have no chance with the girl I love, I might as well marry the other one and please the old man, I suppose. I'll be miserable anyway.” And Jack heaved suchasigh that the big paper screen waved about till it threatened to come down about I gave a horrified look at Margery, but her hair had fallen over her face, and I could only see one little hand clinched fiercely as if she had a pain somewhere. I reached dimbly over and tried to take the little hand, but she shook me off, and so I fell fo listening again. “Well, it’s not so bad as it might be;” Ned was saying, encouragingly. “I hear Miss Wilson is a beauty.” “She is,” said Jack, with enthusiasm. “And then think of the money, my boy. Most-any fellow would envy you.” “I suppose so,” said: Jack, drearily. “But I must go. Tinie’s up. Will you say good-by to the girls for me, Ned? Tell Margery—” Here Jack choked and I was so busy catching~a large, warm tear that was chasing toward the end of my nose that I forgot to look at Margery, when to my amazement a little figure in a gray bath robe, with a cloud of coppery. hair flying after it, bounded right over me, crash I heard Margery’s voice cry: “Oh, no, Jack, you mustn’t go. I—I love you, Jack.” I had.a confused vision of Jack seizing the little figure in his arms, and then I started to run—I don’t look so pretty with my hair wet as Margery does. But somehow when I got to the door I met Ned, and as I looked up wrathfully something I saw in his eye made me stop short, “Ned Tucker,” I exclaimed, knew we were there all the time.” “Well,” he said, not. a whit ashamed, ‘Sf you will leave the ventilating shaft open—” * “You wretch,” I cried, and then something else struck me. “And the uncle,” I gasped, “and the beautiful Miss Wilson—” “Are about as real,” said Master Ned, “as civil service reform.”—Chicago Herald. “you, Do You know Consumption is preventable?
