The doga are separated. William van*
lahea, disguised. under a boiler. That
evening he takes his father'« dresa ault
and calla upon Mies Pratt and her friend,
Mlas Parcher.
Jane, a knowing youngster, explalne
certain matters concerning Willlam'a love
affair to her mother. She also knows the
fact that William has abstracted hla fa
ther's dresa ault.
Willlam'a attentions to Mlsa Pratt and
those of rlvala get on Mr. Parcher'a nerves.
Jane tells Mr. Parcher In secret that Wil
liam can't get his father a dress suit any
longer because It la being altered.
Mrs. Baxter telle William she has sent
Mr. Baxter's dress ault to the tailor for
alteration*. He la crestfallen and quarrels
with Jane.
Mrs. Baxter gives a party for Miss
Pratt William, descending the stairs,
falls and tears hi* best suit. He had sat
on Jane's paint tnx with mother present
able suit
Hla troubles detain him till the partr Is
•trer, to his great chagrin. I.ater he dis
cusses matrimony with the aged parent of
Genesis. Jane la present at the discus
sion.
William goes for a walk with Miss Pratt,
swinging his father's borrowed cane,
Jane, unheeded, advises an umbrella. It
rains, and William gets wet
"I aon't know whnt I *ald to that
tetchy boy to hurt h:m." he began Id
an apologetic tone. "1 don't see that
that there was any (hint; too rough /or
him to stand In a little sarcasm."
"I think he's married.'' said Jane.
"What!" Ai*d her parents united
their hilarity.
"I do think he's married," Jane In
sisted, unmoved. "I think he's mar
ried with that Miss Pratt."
"Well." said her father, "he does
seem upset, and it may be that her
visit and the Idea of whiskers, cowing
so close together, is more thau mere
coincidence, but I hardly think Willie
Is married, Jane."
"Well, then," she returned thought
fully, "he's almost married I know
that much, anyway."
"What makes you think so?"
"Well, because. 1 kind of thought he
must be married, or anyways somep'n.
wuen be talked to Sir. (Jone.sis this
mornin'. He said lie knew how some
people got married in Pennsylvania
an' India, an' he said* they were only
seven or eight years old. He said so
an' I heard hlri An' he said there
were eleven people married that were
only seventeeu, au' ibb 'tioy In Iowa
got i full beard an' gut married too.
An' he said Mr. Genesis was ouly six
teen when he was nun led. He talked
all about gettiu' marri d when you re
seventeen years old, nn' he said how
people thought It was the best thing
could happen. So 1 Just know he s al
most married."
"l'ou haven't any other reason, have
you, June'/" the mother asked.
"Yes'm," said Jane promptly. "An'
it's a more reason than any! Mls»
Pratt calls you 'mamma' as If you
were her niammn. She does It when
she talks to Willie."
"Jane!"
"Yes'm; 1 heard her. An' Willie said,
'I don't know what you'll think about
mother.' He said, 'I don't know what
you'll think about mother,' to Mlsi
Pratt"
Mrs. Baxter looked a little startled,
and her husband frowned.
"Yes," went on Jane, "an' when they
were walkln' they stopped an' talked
to me. an' Miss Pratt said, 'It's our
little sister.'"
"Did she really?" Mrs. Baxter asked
gravely.
"Why, you can ask Willie! She said
It that funny way. 'Our 'Ittle sissy;'
that's what she said. An' Miss Pratt
said, 'Ev'rybody would love our little
sister If mamma washed her In soap
an' water.' You can ask Willie."
"Hush, dear," said Mrs. Baxter. "All
this doesn't mean anything at all, espe
cially such nonsense as Willie's think
ing of being married. It'a your bed
time."
"Well, but, mamma"—
"Come along, Jane!"
"He certainly seems In a queer
state," said Mr. Baiter when his wife
returned.
At this his wife's tone became seri
ous. "Do you think he would do as
crazy a thing as that?"
Mr. Baxter laughed. "Well, 1 don't
know what he'd do it on. 1 don't sup
pose he has more than a dollar In his
possession."
"Yes, he has," she returned quickly.
•Day before yesterday there was a
secondhand furniture man here, and I
was too busy to see him, l>ut I wanted
the storeroom in the cellar cleared out,
and I told Willie he could have what
ever the man would pay him for the
Junk In there If he'd watch to see that
he didn't take anything. They found
loots old ilece* that I'd JorgotUR 40
derneatU tBi'iigs," and altogether the
man paid Willie $0.85."
"Btit, tnercy me," exclaimed Mr. Bax
ter, "the girl may be an Idiot, but she
wouldn't run away and mnrry a boy
Just barely seventeen on $D.85!"
"Oli, 110!" said Mrs. Baxter. "At
least I don't think so. Of course girls
do as crazy things as boys sometimes—
in their way. I was thinking"— She
paused. "Of course there couldn't be
anything in It, but It did seem a little,
strange."
"What did?"
"Why, Just before I came downstairs
Adelia came for the laundry, and I
asked her if she'd seen Willie, and she
said he'd put on his dark suit after
dinner, and he went out through th«
kitchen, carrying his suit case."
"He did?"
"Of course,' Mrs. Baxter went on
slowly, "I couldn't believe he'd do such
a thing, but he really Is In a prepos
terous way over this little Miss Pratt,
and be did have that money."
"By George!" Mr. Baxter got upon
his feet "The way he talked at din
ner, I could come pretty near believing
he hasn't any more brains left than
to get married on $9.85! I wouldn't
put It past him! By George, I
wouldn't!"
"Do you think we'd better go down
to the ParcherB'?_ We'd Just say we
came to call, of course, and If"—
"Get your hat on," he said. "I don't
think there's anything in It at all, but
we'd just as well drop down there. It
can't hurt anything."
"Of course 1 don't think"— she be
gan.
"Neither do I," he Interrupted Irasci
bly. "But with a boy of his age crazy
enough to think he's in love how do
we know what'll happen? We're only
bis parents. Get your hat on."
But when the uneasy couple found
themselves before the house of the
Parchers they paused In the darkness
and presently decided that It was not
necessary to go in From the porch
came tho laughter of several young
voices, and then one silvery voice,
which pretended to be that of a tiny
child.
UO, s Him?: o mm- un uu, uijj onir
va Josle-Joe! Mils' be polite to Johnny
Jump-up, or tunt play wlv May and
Lola!"
"That's Miss Pratt," whispered Mrs.
Baxter. "She's talking to Johnnie
Watson and Joe Bullitt and May
Parcher. Let's go home. It's all right
Of course 1 knew It would be."
"Why, certainly." said Mr. Baxter as
they turned. "Even If Willie were as
crazy as that, the little girl would have
more sense. I wouldn't have thought
anything of It if you hadn't told me
about the suit ;ase That looked sort
of queer."
And when they came to their own
house again there was William sitting
alone and silent upon the steps of the
;>oroh.
"I thought you'd cone out, Willie,"
said his mother as tliey paused beside
him.
"Ma'am?"
"Adelia said yon went out, carrying
your suit case."
"Oh, yes," he said languidly. "If you
leave clothes at Schwartz's In the even
ing they have 'em pressed in the morn
ing You said I looked damp at din
ner. so I took '•'in over and left 'em
.•here."
"1 see." Mrs. Baxter followed her
husband to the doer, but she stopped
<n the threshold and called hack:
'Don't sit there too long, Willie. The
dew Is falling, and It rained so hard
today. I'm afraid it might be damp."
"Ma'am)"
"Come on," Mr. Buster said to his
wife. "He's down ou the Parcher's
porch, not out in from here. Of course
he can't hear you. It's three blocks
and a half."
But >\ imam's ratner was uiism&cu.
Little he knew. William was not upon <
the porch of the Parchers, with May
Parolier and Joe Bullitt and Johnnie
Watson to Interfere. lie was far from
there. In a land where time was not
Upon a planet floating In pink mist,
and uninhabited, unless old Mr. Gene
sis and some Hindu princes and the
diligent Iowan may have established j
themselves lu Its remoter regions—Wll- I
11am was alone with Miss Pratt in
their own home. Aud after a time
they went together and looked into the
door of a room where an indefinite
uumber of little boys, all over three
years of age, were playing In the fire
light upon a white bear rug. For In
the roseate gossamer that boys' dreams
are made of William had Indeed en
tered the married state.
Ills condition was growing worse ev
ery day. I
It was the morning of the great day
when a trolley ride aud picnic were to
be given in houoi of Miss Pratt. Wil
lie bad a spirited argument with his
mother on the time honored subject of
taking an overcoat and Anally submit
ted to her arguments.
She hung the garment upon ills arm,
kissed hiin, and he departed lri a des
perate maimer.
However, having worn big tragic
face for three blocks, he halted before
a corner drug store and permitted his
expression to improve as he gazed
upon the display of "My Little Sweet
heart All Tobacco Cuban Cigarettes,
the Package of Twenty For 10 Cents."
William was not a smoker—that Is to
say, he had made the usual boyhood
experiments, finding them discourag
ing—and. though at times he consid
ered It humorously man about town to
say to a smoking friend, "Well, I'll
tackle one o' your ole coffin nails," he
bad never made a purchase of tobacco
In his life. But It struck him now
that It would be rather debonair to dis
port himself with a package of Little
Sweethearts upon the excursion. And
the name! It thrilled him inexpressi
bly, bringing a tenderness Into his eyes
and a irlnw into his bOSP-IU.

Feeding tha Srsi!«.
In Frauce, "where the.e Is a big de
mand for snails, the email farms yield
a handsome profit. As many ns 500.000
"first quality" malls, tlie price of
which In normal times averages about
$1.80 a thousand, can be reared oa
an ucre of land, says the London Tit
Bits.
They need be fed only once a day,
preferably In the evening, and,- though
extremely voracious, are by no means
fastidious. After a fall of rain, which
seems to sharpen their appetites, a bed
of 100,000 snails will soon demolish a
barrow load of cabbages. They are
fed not only on green stuffs, but on
wine dregs or bran soaked In wine, a
diet which is supposed to impart a spe
cial flavor.
Cut Glass I* Fragile.
Cut glass probably would break more
easily than uncut pattern glaas. The
pattern in cut glass Is cut by means
of grinding wheels. Uncut glass pat
terns are usually molded. The angles
In cut glass are better defined and
sharper. The cutter also may, In some
cases, drive bis wheel u little deeper
than in other spots. Obviously the
glass at such points would be thinner
and more fragile.
