A SHREWD
MOVE
By SAMUEL E. BRANT
-1 wish Mary Blake to like you,"
wild my fiancee to we soon after we
became engaged. "If she approves I
don't care what any one else thinks of
you."
The remark occasioned the first chiJI
that ran through me after receiving
the announcement that Ellen io\ed me
and would be mine.
Ellen Thornton and I had met in the
summer at a mountain resort, and our
engagement occurred in the winter.
We lived in cities, and- all I knew
about her and her antecedents was
that she came of an excellent family
au(1 was generally Ukc.d. I had never
heard of her bos.un friend, Mary Blake.
But when we are congratulated upon
the taking of a partner all our friends
speak well of the person selected. I
can remember congratulating a friend
on his engagement with a girl I de
tested.
1 was not so Infatuated with Ellen
but that I would be glad to hear the
truth about her. whatever that truth
might be; but. realizing that no one
would tell me the truth. I was quite
willing t<> keep my eyes open that I
might learn it by observation. The
moment I met Miss Blake I saw by
her manner that the approval hoped
for by my betrothed was wanting. As
love is a spark easily enkindled, so Is
antagonism, though In this case the
antagonism came from Miss Blake to
me. I was Indifferent to her.
"How do you like her?" asked Ellen
of im' when we were again alone to
gether.
••Very much," I replied with the
usual untruthfulness In such cases.
"How does she like tne?"
"She thinks you are splendid."
"Yon don't mean it!"
"Yes. and she predicts that we will
be very happy together."
"Indeed!"
"Only possibly for one thing."
"What's that?"
"Well, she says you have a very
firm look about yon. and she predicts
that you'll lead."
This was the tiny hole in the apple
through which the worm bad crawled. I
I made im reply. Indeed, no reply was
needed. Miss Blake had thrown up
her Xirst line of defenses. She had
prepared Ellen against transferring
the influence exerted by her bosotn
friend to her lover. I resolved to
lock horns with my enemy, but iu such
a way that Ellen would not realize
that I was doing so. But I proposed
to put Ellen in such a position that she
must decide between me and her bos
om friend.
1 found an opportunity at the whist
table. If one desires to pick a quarrel
with a woman an excellent way Is
to secure her for a partner, then point
out her misplays. One evening when
Ellen, her bosom friend, my chum. Jim
Baxter, and I were together I propos
ed whist and insisted on having Miss
Blake for my partner. By simply point
ing out to her in the most delicate
manner possible her bad plays I final
ly sent her out of the room in a huff.
"What have yon done?" exclaimed
Ellen, aghast.
"Nothing of importance. She shouid
be very much obliged to me for teach
ing her the game."
"You must undo what you have done
at once."
"There is nothing to uiido. She will
soon net over her tiff. I shall pay no
attention to it. treating her just the
same as ever hereafter."
Ellen was much troubled. A few
nights after this a do/.eu of us young
persons were to have a little dance at
Mary Blake's home. Before going
there Ellen informed me that it would
be better if I did uot invite Mary to
dance, since she had said that if I did
she would refuse.
"Indeed." was my reply. "I'm very
sorry to hear that"
On the evening in question when
the piano began to discourse music for
the twostep 1 stepped up to Mary
Blake and asked her to dance. She
bowed, said nothing and turned away.
This was the end of my part of the
little comedy. I knew that her refusal
to dance with one who had invited her
in her own home was an unpardonable
breach of good manners. However, I
remained for the evening, dancing
with all the other girls in turn.
"What have you doue?" exclaimed
Ellen as we walked home together.
"Didn't 1 warn you uot to ask Mary to
dance?"
"You wouldn't surely have bad mo
leave her out. inviting the others, and
that too. In hur own home.-"
"She was perfectly right to refuse
your invitation till you had apologized
for your rude treatment of her at the
card table."
"Uefer that point to some elderly per
son with a fair knowledge of good
manners. If the decision Is in your fa
vor I will at once apologize to your
friend, though I admit I don't know
what for."
"To whom shall I refer It?"
"Your mother, and If she decides in
my favor you are to ask Mary to do
anything your mother may suggest If
she declines you are to decide between
your friend and" me."
The decision of the referee was that
Mary Blake should apologize to me for
refusing to dance with me in her own
house. Mary declined to do any such
thing, and. though it cost Ellen a strug
gle. she broke with her bosom friend.
Since our marriage 1 have succeeded
in convincing my wife of the danger
ous position in which sl>° stood
