A Tale of Youth and

BOOTH TARKINGTON
Copyrlcbt. l*li. 1914. by Metropolitan
SYNOP5LS
William Baxter, aged seventeen, fall» at
flrat alcht In calf lovo with young. Mlea
fratt on a visit to, friend# of. hla, Hit
little slltar. Jane, la a fly In the ointment
William U eent by hl» mother to help

friends, cwmea. along with bar dog, Sloplt
A dogflght »n»uea.
Flbpit,"placeu* ffon the ©wni}, loot
ed like something that bad droppad
from a Christmas tree, and ha auto
matically made use of fuaty legs. iome
what longer than a caterpillar's, to
Patter after his mistress. He was nei
ther enterprising nor inquisitive. He
kept cUhs# to the rim of her skirt, which
was as high a® he could see, and he
wlabed to ba tgken up and carried
again.
"My goo'nesa!" exclaimed Genesis,
glancing back over bi» shoulder. " 'Af
11T th'"g ask like be think he go'n' %
git somewberes!" And then, in answer
to a frantic pull upon the tub, "Loolf
like you mighty strong t'day," ha said
"I caln' go no fastuh!" He glanced
back again, chuckling. " 'At 11*1' bird
do well not mix up nothln' '1th ole man
Clematis!"
Clematis, It happened, was Just com
ing Into view, having been detained
round the corner by his curiosity eon
t»ruittg ft set of Loula XVL furniture
wlilcU soma bouse movers were un*
packing upon tha aidtwalk. He ap
proached with glowing eagerness at a
gallop. Flopit was about the Blse of
Clematis' head, aud, although Clematis
was certain that Flopit wa» something
alive, he could uot decide what
Flopit paid not the slightest atten
tion to Clematis. The self importance
of dogs, like that of the minds of men,
la lu dlruetly inverse ratio to their
size.
All at once a roguish and irresponsi
ble mood seUed upon Clematis. He
laid his nose upon the ground, delib
erating a bit of gayety, aud then, with
a llUte rush, set a large, rude paw
upon the sensitive face of Flopit and
capsteed him. Kloplt uttered a bitter
complaint >» an asthmatic voice.
"Oh. nasay dray bid horror!" cried
his mistress, turning quickly at thla,
sound and waving a pin* p#f&aol at
Clematis. "Shoo! Dirty dog. go 'way!"
And she was able somehow to connect
him with the. waahtub and boiler, for
she added, "Nassy laundrymans to
have bad doggies!"
Mr. Watson rushed upon Clematia
with angry bellowing* and Imaginary
missiles "You disgusting brute!" be
roared. "How dare you?"
Apparently much alarmed, Clematia
lowered bis ears, tucked t)i« tftlj under
neath him and fled to the rear, not
haltlnjc once or looking back until be
disappeared round the corner whence
he had come. "There," said Mr. Wat- ]
sou, "1 guess be won't bother ua again
very soon!"
It must be admitted that Milady was
one of those people who do not mind
being overheard, uo matter what they
say. "Lucky for us."' she Baid, "we
had a nice dray bid utans to protect u«,
wasn't it, Flopit;" And she thought
it necessary to repeat something she
had already sufficiently em
phatic—
"Nassy laundrymans!"
"1 expect I gave that big mongrel
the fright of his life." said Mr. Wat
sou, with complacency. "He'll prob
ably ruii a mile,"
The shoulders of Oenesls shook as
be was towed ulong by the convulsive
tub. He knew from previous evidence
thul Clematis possessed both a high
quality and a large quantity of per
slateuce, and It was his hilarious opin
ion that the dog bad not gone far. As
a matter of fact, the head of Clematia
was at this moment cautiously extend
ed from behlud the 1'eucepoat at the
corner whither he bad lied. Viewing
with growing assurance the scene be
fore bim, be permitted himself to
emerge wholly and Bat down, with hia
head tilted to one Bide In thought.
Almost at tbe next corner ttio olotties
boiler with legs and tbe waahtubs and
Genesis were m&rehlag ou, and Just
behind them weut three figures not so
familiar to Clematis and connected In
his nihid with a vague, mild apprehen
sion. But all the backs were safely
toward him, and behind them pattered
that small lire thing which had so pro
foundly Interested him.
He rose and came on apace silently.
When he reached the side of Floplt,
some eight or nine seconds later, Clem
atis found himself even more fascinat
ed and perplexed than during their for
mer Interview, though again Floplt
seemed ntterly to disregard him.
Clematis was not at all sure that i
t'lopit was a dog, but he felt that It
was his business to And out Heaven
knows, so far Clematis had not a par- I
tide of animosity in his heart, but he '
considered It his duty to himself, In .
case Floplt turned out not to be a dog,
to learn Just what he was. The thing j
might be edible.
Therefore, ayain nmAxj-r Qblinuair j
Bide Floplt," whOe'tBi Human "beings
ahead Went on, unconscious of the ap
proaching; climax behind them. Clema
tis sought to detect by senses keenef
than sight some evidence of Flopit'i
standing In the zoological,. kingdom,
and, sniffing at the top of Floplt's head
—though Clematis was uncertain about
its Indeed being a head—he found him
self baffled and much disturbed.
Flopit did not smell like a dog; be
smelled of violets.
CHAPTER III.
Truoulsnce.
CLEMATIS frowned and sneesed
as the infinitesimal particles of
sachet powder- settled- in the
lining of his nose. But his con
science compelled him to persist in his
attempt to solve the mystery, Hence
he sought to place his nose in contact
with Floplt's, for he had perceived on
the front of the mysterious stranger a
buttony something which might possi
bly be a nose.
Floplt evaded the contact Be felt
that he had enduredabout enough from
this Apache and that It was nearly
time to destroy him. Having, no. ex
perience of battle, save with bedroom
slippers and lace handkerchiefs, Floplt
had little doubt of his powers as a
warrior. Betrayed by his majestic self
importance, he had not the remotest
idea that he was small. Usually he
saw the world from a window or from
the seat of an automobile or over bis
mistress' arm.
From these various Ignorances, of bla
sprang his astonishing, his Incredible,
▼alor. Clematis, with head lowered
close to Flopit's, perceived something
peering at him from beneath the tan
gled curtain of cottony, violet scented
stuff which seemed to be the upper
part of Flopit's face. It was Floplfa
eye, a red rimmed eye and sore, and ao
demoniacally malignant thut Clematis,
indescribably startled, would h«Y9
withdrawn his own countenance at
onte, but it was too late. With a fear
ful oath Floplt sprang upward and an
nexed himself to the under lip of the
horrified Clematis.
Miss Parcber and her guest turned,
screaming. Clematis! self command
went all to pieces. Mr. Watson en
deavored to kick. Clematis without
ruining Floplt—a difficult matter.
Flopit was baresark from the first,
and the mystery is where he learned
the dog cursing that be did. In spite
Of the Pavld and Goliath difference in
size, it would be less than justice to
deny that a very fair dog fight took
place. Genesis relieved himself of the
burden of the washtub upou his back
and watched the combat In simple
pleasure. A furious young person
struck him a frantic though harmless
blow with a pink parasol.
"You stop thein!" she screamed, "Qf
I'D havp you anvstedr
''You, Clem!" he shouted
And ipstautiy Clematis was but a
whitish and brownish streak along the
hedge, lie ran like a dog in a moving
picture wben they speed the film, and
he shot from sight once more round
the corner, while Floplt, still cursing,
was seized and squeezed in his mis
tress' embrace.
But she was poj satisfied, "Where's
that laundrymau with the tin thing on
his head?" she demuuded. "He ought
to be arrested for haviug such a dog.
It's his dog. isn't It? Where Is he?"
Genesis turned ai>d looked round
about the horizon, mystified. William
Sylvanus Baxter and the clothes boiler
had disappeared from sight.
"If he owns that dog," asserted the
still furious owner of Floplt, "I wi|l
bsve him nrrostttf. Where la he?
Where is that laundrymau?'*
"Why, be," Genesis began slowly,
"be aln' no laundrym"— He came to
sn uncertain pause. If she chose to
assume, with quick feminine Intuition,
that the dog was WlHtum'a and that
William was s laundryman It was not
Genesis' place to eulighten her. " 'Tle
'larly." he reflected, "since she talk ao
free about gittin' people 'rested!" He
became aware thut William had
squirmed through the hedge and now
"You stop th«m, or I'll hev» you V'
r««t»d!'!
lay prostrate on tbe other side of It,
but this, likewise, wijs something with
in neither hi* duty nor his Inclination
to reveal.
"This here laundryman," said Gene
sis, resuming—"this here laundryman
what own the dog, I reckon he mua'
hopped on 'at street ear what went hy,"
"Well, he ought to be arrested!"
•be said, and, pressing her cheek to
Floplt'i. the chaosed het-toae-. "Is
iiun'i Icicle 2e"art"a-.^51tTn' So SoppltyT
t?m's own mumay make uma all right.
Urn's p'eshus Flopltl"
Then, with the consoling Miss Parch
er'g arm about her, and Mr. Watson,
even more dazzled with lore than when
be bad first met her, some three hours
post, she made her way between the
tuba and passed on down the street.
Not till the three and Floplt were oat
of sight did William come forth from
the hedge. In silence then they re
sumed their Journey. Clematla was
waiting for them at the corner ahead.
That evening, at about half past 7
o'clock, dinner being over and Mr. and
Mrs. Baxter (parents of William) seat
ed in the library, Mrs. Baxter said:
"I tblnk it's about time for you to
go and dress for your Emerson club
meeting, papa, if you intend to go."
"Do I have to dressMr. Baxter
asked plaintively. "I'm getting old
enough not to have to, don't you
think, mamma?" be urged uppealingly.
"When a man's my age"—
"Nonsense!" she said. "Your figure
is exactly like William's. It's the fig
ure that really shows age first, and
yours hasn't begun to." And she add
ed briskly, "Go along like a good boy
and get it over."
Mr. Baxter rose submissively and
went upstairs to do as ha was bid.
But after fifteen or twenty minutes,
during which bis footsteps had been
audible in various. parts of the house,
be called down over the banister*:
"I can't flod my evewlng clothes!
They aren't anywhere In the house!"
"Where did you put tbem the last
time you wore tbem?" she called.
"1 don't know."
"All right; I'll come," she said, put
ting her clothing upon the table and
rising. "Men never can find anything,"
she observed.
Search high, search low, no trace of
Mr. Baxter's evening clothes were to
be found. "PerUspa William could find
them," said Mrs. Baxter, a final con
fession of helplessness.
But William was no more to be
found than the missing appareL Wil
liam, in fact, after spending some time
In the lower back hall, listening to the
quest above, bad just gone out through
the kitchen door. And after some en
suing futile efforts Mr. Baxter was
forced to proceed to his elub in the ac
coutermenta of business.
As he passed the bouse of Mr. Parch
er be noted the fine white shape of a
masculine evening bosom gleaming in
the moonlight on the porch. A daintj
figure In white sat beside It, and there
was another white figure present,
though this was so small that Mr. Bax
ter did not see It at all. It waa the
figure of a tiny doglet, and it reposed
upon the black masculine knees that
belonged to the eveulng bosom.
Mr. Baxter heard a dulcet voice.
"B« la ludtfTerlnk, Isn't be, »weet«*t
Flopiti Seriously. though. Mr. Wat
son wan telling me about you today.
He says you're the most Indifferent
man he knows. He sayi you don't
care two uiluutee whether a girl Urea
or dies. Isn't he a mean ale wicked
sing, p'eshus Flopit?"
The reply was Inaudible, and Mr.
Baxter passed an, having recognized
nothing of bla own.
"These young fellows don't have any
trouble finding their dresa suits, ]
guess," he murmured, "not on a night
like this."
Thus William, after a hard day, came
to the gates of his romance, entering
those portals of the moon In triumph.
At one stroke bis dashing raiment
gave him high superiority over John
nie Watson «ud other rivals who might
loom,
