Beauty and
The Beast
By DWIGHT NORWOOD
A scientist has made the statement
that, while beauty In women Is highly
prized by men, beauty In men is not
prized by women. Whether or no thto
Is true, the fact remains that a great
many very pretty women have married
painfully ugly men. It does seem to
be the ease that women are captured
by men in an entirely different way
from what men are captured by wom
en. Perhaps if the subject were fol
lowed out sclentlflcally it would be
found in the fact that the man is
snared by weakness, while the woman
is snared by strength.
Rosalind l'burber was a very pret
ty country girl at the age (eighteen)
when most girls are at their prettiest
and "was a great favorite with the
young farmer boys, who were ber nat
ural associates. She was about to
please her father and mother by ac
cepting Gus Walker, the son of one
of the most prominent fanners in the
neighborhood and commonly consid
ered rich. Young Walker was as hand
some as Rosa was pretty. Indeed, he
was considered the best looking young
fellow in all that region.
Farmer Gordon, about that time hav
ing crops to get in, hired a hand, Joe
Green, a man about thirty years old.
who was a sight to behold. He had a
birthmark on his neck and when a
baby had fallen Into a fire which had
scarred his whole face. Added to this,
be was freckled, and his hair was a
sort of red sorrel. One night at a barn
dance this scarecrow was present The
girls would not dance with him. He
Invited Itosa atnong the first, and she
turned her back on him without even
deigning him an answer. That ended
his invitations for partners. One of
the young men asked him why he
didn't go through the whole list, and
he replied that since Rosa Thurber
would not dance with him he would
never dance with any other girl. Of
course this was repeated to Miss Thur
ber, who said that she was pleased to
save the other girls the pain of being
Invited to dance by such a scarecrow.
The neit thing that Rosa heard
aibout Joe Green was that when twit
ted about finding, or rather not finding,
a girl to marry him he had said that
the only girl in the world be would
care to marry was Rosalind Thurber.
On hearing it she said that he had as
much chance of marrying her as he
had of marrying the empress of Ger
many.
One tiny when Rosa was walking on
the road she met Joe. Her only no
tice of his presence was to make a
face at him. He lifted his hat po
litely.
Joe used to hang around the Thurber
farm in hopes of getting a sight of
Rosa. All the family noticed this and
used to twit her about It. One day
when Joe had been sitting on a fence
for an hour, looking up at the house
where she lived, she astonished all
present by going out on the porch and
throwing some feed to the chickens.
Even theu no one suspected that the
girl had been touched by Joe's devo
tlou and had gone out to reward him
with a sight of her. But under Joe's
homeliness was a keen insight Into a
woman's nature, and with great satis
faction he got down from the fence
and went away.
The nest time she met Green was In
the evening \vhen he was taking the
horses to water.
"When are you going to stop making
a guy of yourself about me?" she
asked.
"I'm not making a fool of myself."
he replied. "Of all the men here
abouts I'm the only one that appre
ciates you. You can't stop me from
loving you. no matter what you do."
"What do you love me for?"^
" 'Cause you're the only girl In the
world worth loving."
"now long have you loved me?"
"Since the first night I ever saw you
at the barn dance."
"How long are you going to love
me?"
"Till the day of judgment"
There being no more Information on
the subject to be derived, Rosa passed
on. leaving Joe to attend to the rest
of his chores.
After awhile Joe Green and Rosa
Tburber were seen occasionally walk
ing together. Then they began to
be spoken of as beauty and the beast
Gtis Walker, who had been expecting
soon to be engaged to her. met her
one evening on the road with Joe. Joe
attempted to smile and made such a
horrible face of It that Gus forgot to
how to Rosa. The nest time Gus and
!iosa met he asked her where was her
scarecrow lover and received a reply
that some persons were scarecrows on
the outside and some persons were
scarecrows on the inside. Then she
turned on ber heel, and that was the
last there was of courtship between
the two.
One day It became reported that the
pretty Rosa Thurber was going to mar
ry that homely Joe Green. No one
would believe it at first, but after sev
eral of Rosa's friends had asked her
about it and she had admitted It It was
accepted as a fact They were mar
ried, and the most astonishing part of
the matter followed in a crop of beau
tiful children. Most of them resem
bled the mother, with her raven trusses
ind rosy complexion, and the "red head
ones," as those who inherited from
the father were called, fortunately did
not fall in the fire as he had done and
ivere therefore without his blemish in
this respect and without his birthmark.
