fact that William has abstracted his fa
ther's dress suit
William's attentions to Miss Pratt and
those of rivals get on Mr. Parcher's nerves.
Jane tells Mr. Parchir In secret that Wil
liam e«n't get his father's dress suit any
longer because It le being altered.
Mrs. Baxter tells William t*« has sent
Mr Baxter's dress suit to the tailor for
alterations. He Is crestfallen and quarrels

able suit.
His trouble* detain him till the party la
#rer. t» hta great chagrin. Later he dl»
nu«i matrimony with the aj*l parent of
Genesis. Jane la present at the discus
sion.
William goes for a walk with Miss Pratt
swinging hi* father's borrowed cane.
Jane, unheeded, advises an umbrella. It
rains, and William gets wet.
Jane, from her observations, tell* her
parents that ahe thinks William Is mar
ried. The parents, at first alarmed, dis
miss the subject. William goes ptonlck
Ing. and a new rival turns up.
The rival monopolizes Miss Pratt H*
brags about his love for smoking, an*
William give* him some cigarette*.
The rival Is made ill and retires from
the Held. Qeneels tells Jane of hew he Is
going to he a waiter on occasions and
where he Is going to buy a secondhand
dret.i> suit. Wllllaip overhears.
"She's what?" Jane asked. "What's
that mean, Genesis—kayterlss?"
"She kaytuhs," he explained. "Ef
It's a man you call him kaytuhuh; *f
It's a lady she's a kayterlss. She does
kaytunun fer all lem blue rein fam
"llt's in town. She make ref'eshmuns,
bring wnltuiu—'at'.s kaytunun. You'
maw give big dinnuh. she have Fauuy
kaytub an' don't take no trouble 'tall
herself. Fanny take all 'at trouble."
"I see." said Jane. "But I don't see
how her beln' a kayterlss started you
to dressln' so high, Gvntsls."
"This here way: Fanny say. 'Look
here. Genesis, 1 got big Job t'morra
night, an' I'm man short 'couut o' bar
in' to have a 'nouueer.' "
"A what?"
"Fanny talk Jes' that way. Goln' be
big dinnuh potty, an this here blue
vein fam'lytell Fanny, they want whole
lot extry gplooglu'; tell her put One
lookln' cullud man stun' by drawln'
room do'—ask ev'ybodv name an' holler
out whatever name they say Jes' as
they walk In. This here fatn'ly say
they golu' show what's what 'n'ls
town, an' they boun' Fanny go git 'em
a 'nouueer. 'Well, what's mattuh you
doin' 'at 'nounciu'?' Funny say. 'Who
—me?" I tell her. 'Yes, you kin too!'
she say, an' she say she len' me 'at
waltuh suit yoosta b'long o!e Henry
Gimlet what die' when he owln' Fan
ny sixteen dolluhs, an' Fanny tuck an'
keep 'at f&aituh sun.
"She use 'at suit on extry waituhs
when she got some cn her bands what
ain't got 110 waituh suit. 'You wear
'at suit.' l'anny say. 'tin' you be good
'nouncer, 'cause you a flue, big man
an' got a big. gran'.voice. 'Nen you

an' git dolluh an' half ev'y even" you

stau" up dolu' 'at 'nouuciu' ve'y nex'
nlgbt White lady an' ge't'mun walk
todes my do", 1 step up to 'em—I step
up to 'em this away."
Here Genesis found it pleasant to
present the scene with some elabora
tion. He dropped the handle of the
freezer, rose, assumed a stately but
ingratiating expression and "stepped
up" to the imagined couple, using a
pacing aijd rhythmic gait
I Then, bending graciously, as though
the persons addressed were of dwarf
ish stature, " 'Souse me," he said, "but
kin I please be ao p'llte as to 'quiah
yo' name?" For .a moment he listen
ed attentively, then nodded, and, re
turning with the same aristocratic un
dulations to an Imaginary doorway
near the freezer, "Mlsto an' Mlssuz Or
losko Rlnktuml" he proclaimed sono
rously.
Jane looked at him thoughtfully.
"Do you like It better than cuttln'
grass, Genesis?" ahe asked
He paused to consider. "Yes'.n—
when ban' play all lem tunes! My
goo'ness. do soun' gran'I"
"You can't do it tpnjght, though,
Genesis," aald Jane. "Y.ou hat to be
quiet on Sunday nlghta, don't you?"
"Yes'm. Aln' got no mo' kaytunun
Oil nex' Friday even'."
"Oh. I bet that's the Pftrtf for Mla«
I'rett at Mr. i'ai'clrer's!'*- Jane ctted
"Didn't I guess right?"
"Yes'in. I reckon I'm a-goin' a see
one yo' fam'l.v 'at night—see him dano
Ip\ wait on him at ref-cshmuns."
Jane's expression became even more
serious than usual. "Willie? I don't
know whether he's goln\ Genesis."
"Lan' name!" Genesis exclaimed.
"He die ef he don' git Invite to 'at
balll"
"Oh, he's invited!" said Jane. "Only
J think mhybe he won't go."
"My goo'uesS! Why aln' he goln'?"
Jane looked at her friend studiously
before replying. "Well, It's a secret"
she said Anally, "but it's a very inter
'sting one, an' I'll tell you If you never
tell."
"Yes'm; I aln' tellin' nobody."
Jane glanced round, then, stepped a
little closer and told the secret with
the solemnity it deserved. "Well, when
Miss Tratt first came to visit Mls3
May Parcher, Willie used to keep pa
pa's evening elo'es in his window seat,
an' mamma wondered what had be
come of 'em. Then, after dinner, he'd
slip up there an' put 'em on him an'
go ont through the kitchen an' call on
Miss Pratt.
"Then mamma found 'em, an' she
thought be oughtn't to do that, so she
didn't tell hlin or anything, an' she
didn't ereu tell papa, but she had the
tailor make 'em ev«r au' ever so much
bigger, 'cause they were gettln' too
tight for pupa. An. well, so after that,
even if Willie could get 'em out o'
mamma's clo'es closet where she keep*
'em now, he'd look so funny In 'em he
couldn't wear 'em. Well, an* then he
couldn't go to pay calls on Miss Pratt
In the evening since then, because
mamma says after he started to go
there in that suit he couldn't go jvlth
out It, or may be Miss Pratt or-the oth
er ones that's in love of her would
think it was pretty queer an' maybe
kind of expcck It was papa's all the
time.
"Mamma says she thinks Willie must
have worried a good deal over reasons
to say why he'd always go in the day
time after that an' never came In the
evening. An' now they're goin' to have
this party, an' she says he's been get
tin' paler an' paler every day since he
heard about It. Mamma says he's pale
Some because Miss Pratt's goin' away,
but she thinks it's a good deal more
because—well, if he would wear those
eveuitig clo'es Just to go callin', how
would it be to go to that party an' not
have any? That's what mamma thinks
—an', Geuesis, you promised you'd nev
er tell as long as you live!"
"Yes'm; 1 ain" tellin'," Genesis
chuckled. "I'm a-goin' a git me one
nem waituh suits bcfo* long myse'f,
so's I kin quit wearln" 'at ole Henry
Gimlet suit what b'long to Fanny, an'
hiye me a privut suit o' my own.
They's a secon'han' 8to' ovub on the
avyuoo, where they got swallertall
suits all way fuui sevum dolluha to
nineteen! dolluhs an' ulnety-elght cents.
I'm a"—
Jane started, interrupting him. "Shi"
she whispered, laying a finger warn
. Ingly upon her lips.
William had entered the yard at the
back gute and. approaching over the
lawn, bad arrived at the steps of the
porch before Jane perceived him. She
gave him an apprehensive look, but he
passed into the house absentmlndedly,
not even tlliuhing at sight of Clematis.
And Mrs. Baxter was right—William
did look pale.
"I guess he didn't hear us," said
Jane when he had disappeared into the
interior. "He acUs awful funny!" she
added thoughtfully. "First when he
was in love of Miss Pratt he'd be mad
about somep'n almost every minute he
was home.
"Couldn't anybody say anything to
him but he'd Just behave as If it was
frightful, an' then if ,\ou'd see him out
walkin' with Miss Pratt—well, he'd
look like—like"— Jane paused. Her
eye fell upon Clematis, and by a hap
py inspiration she was able to com
plete her simile with remarkable ac
curacy. "lie'd look like the way Clem
atis looks at people! That's just ex
actly the way he'd look. Genesis, when
he was walkin' with Miss Pratt."
CHAPTER XV.
Fathars .Forget.
JANE nodded repealed ly for em
pliaais. ami Ueiietds shook bis
head to show tUut he was as
deeply Impressed as she wished
him to be. "1 guess," she added after
a pause—"I guess Willie didn't hear
anything you a a' 1 talked about him
or clo'es or anything."
She was mistaken in ;>art William
had caught no reference to himself, hut
he had overheard something, and he
was now alone in his room thinking
about it almost feverishly. "A secon'
ban' sto' ovuh on the avynoo, where
they got swallertall suits all way f'um
Bcrum dolluhs to nineteem dolluhs an'
ninety-eight cents."
Miss Pratt, that magic girl, was go
ing home.
To the competent twenties, hundreds
of miles suggesting no impossibilities,
such departures may be rending, but
not tragic. Implacable, the difference
to seventeen! Miss I'ratt was going
home, and seventeen could not follow.
It could only mourn upon tlie lonely
shore, tracing little angelic footprints
left in the sand.
William decided to make one final
appeal before he resorted to measures
which the necessities of despair bad
caused him to contemplate.
Descending from his room, he found
his father and mother atlll sitting upon
the front porch.
"Father," he said in a loud voice, "I
have come to"—
"Dear me!" Mrs. Baiter exclaimed,
not perceiving that she was interrupt
ing an intended oration. "Willie, yon
do look pale!"
But William persisted heroically.
"Father," he said, "father, 1 have
come to"— ^ i ; " . * , .
"What Otl earth's the mallet With
you?" Mr. Baxler ceased to fan him
self. Mrs. Baxter stopped rdcklfajf. »nd
both stared.
"leather," he began once taore, "I
have come—1 liave come to—to place
before you something 1 think It's your
duty as my father to Undertake."'
"My soul!" said Mr. Baxter.
Here William drew a long breath.
"I have thought over this siepi 'be
cause thert comes a time to every
young man when they must lay a step
before their father before something
happens that they would be sorry for.
1 have thought this undertaking over,
and 1 am certain it would be your
honest duty"—
"My soul!" gasped Mr. Baxter. "I
thought I knew you pretty Well, but
you talk like a stranger to me! What
Is all this? What you want?"
"A dress suit!" said William.
He was surprised and hurt to hear
his father utter a wordless shout In a
tono of wondering derision.
"I have more to say"— William be
gan.
But Mr. Baxter a; liiru off. "A
dress ault!" he cried. "Well, I'm (lad
you were talking about something, be
cause I honestly thought it must be
toa much.bud!"
