He spies Miss Pratt and a party of
young friends and goes toward them. He
creates derision an.l turns to find Jane
and her young f.iend paroling after him
and getting even. A brief goodby and a
surprise at the end.
In the smallish house which all sum
mer long. from morning until late at
nlglit, hud resounded with the voices
of young people, echoing their songs,
murmurous with their theories of love
or vibrating with their glee, somotimes
shaking all over during their more
boisterous moods—In that house, now
comparatively so vacant, the propri
etor stood and breathed deep breaths.
"Hah!" he breathed sonorously. He
gave himself several resounding slaps
upon the chest, then went out to the
porch and sat In a rooking chair near
his wife. He spread himself out ex
pansively. "My glory." he said. "I be
lieve I'll take off my coat! I haven't
had my coat off outside of my own
room all summer. I believe I'll take a
vacation! Rv George, I believe IH
stay home this afternoon!"
"That's nice," said Mrs. Parcher.
"Hah!" he said. "My glory, I believe
I'll take off my shoes!"
And, meeting no objection, he pro
ceeded to carry out this plan.
"Hah-ahl" he said and placed his
■tocklnged feet upon the railing, where
a number of vines, running upon
strings, made a screen between the
porch and the street. He lit a large
cigar. "Well, well," he said, "that
tastes good! If this keeps on I'll be
In as good shape as I was last spring
before you know it!" Leaning far back
In the rocking chair, his hands behind
his head, he smoked with fervor, but
suddenly he Jumped in a way which
showed that his nerves were far from
normal. His feet came to the floor
with a thump, be Jerked the cigar out
.of his mouth aud turned a face of con
sternation upon his wife.
"What's the matter?"
"Suppose," said Mr. Parcher huskily
—"suppose she missed her train!"
Mrs. Parcher shook her bead.
"Think not?" he said brightening. "1
ordered the livery stable to have ■
carriage 'here in lots of time."
"They did," said Mrs. P^jjher se
verely: "about S3 "7
"Well, t don't mind that,1' he rettthi
ed, putting lils feet up again. "After
all, she was a mighty flue little girl In
her way. The only trouble with me
was that crowd of boys. Having to
listen to them liked to kill me, and 1
believe If ahe'd stayed Just one more
day I'd been a goner I"
"Mr. Parcher!" a youthful voice re
peated.
He rose and. separating two of tha
Tines which screened the end of the
porch from the street, looked out Two
■mall maidens had paused upon tha
sidewalk and were peering over the
picket fence.
"Mr. Parcher," said Jane as soon as
his head appeared between the vlne»—
"Mr. Parcher, Miss Pifttt's gone. She'a
gone away on the cars."
"You think so?" he asked gravely.
"We saw her," said Jane. "Rannl#
br x were mere, vvuue wai goin i«
chase tis, I guess, but we went In the
baggage room behind trunks, an' w«
saw her go. She got on the care, an" It
went with her In It Honest, she's gone
■way, Mr. Pareher."
Before apeukliig Mr. Pareher took a
long look at this telepathic child. In
his fond eyes she was a marvel and a
darling.
"Well, thank you, Jan®," he said.
Jane, however, had turned her head
and was staring at the corner, which
was out of his sight.
"Oo-oo-ooh!" she murmured.
"What's the trouble, Jane?"
"Willie!" site said. "Its Willie an'
that Joe Bullitt an' Johnnie Watson
an' Mr. Wallace Banks. They're with
Miss May Pareher. They're coniln'
right here!"
Mr. Pareher gave forth a low moan
and turned pathetically to his wife,
but she cheered him with a laugh.
"They've only walked up from the
station with May," she said. "They
won't coiue In. You'll see!"
Believed, Mr. Pareher turned again
to speak to Jane, but she was not there.
Tie caught but a glimpse of her, run
ning tip the street as fast as she could,
hand In hand with her companion.
"Kun, Uaunie, run!" panted Jane. "1
got to gel home an' tell mamma about
It before Willi;:! I bet 1 ketch Hall
Columbia, anyway, when he does get
there!"
And In this she was not mistaken;
she caught Hail Columbia. It lasted
all afternoon.
it was still continuing after dinner
that evening, when an oft repeated
yodel, fallowed by a shrill walled
"June-ee! <;h. Jane-uee-ee!" brought
her to an «>»wn window downstairs. In
flia eal'iy 3uslT s!Tu looked out upon
the washed face of Rannie Klrsted,
who stood on the lawn below. "Como
on out, Janie. Mamma says I can stay
Outdoors an' play till half past 8."
Jane shook her head. "I can't I
can't go outside the house till tomor
row. It's because we walked after
Willie with our stuinmlcks oat o'
Joint."
"Can't you come out at all?" Rannie
urged. "Go ask your mother. Tell
her"—
"How can I?" Jane Inquired, with a
little heat, "when she isn't here to ask?
She's gone out to piny cards, she and
papa."
Rannie swung her foot. "Well," she
said, "I guers I haf to find somep'n to
do. O'nlght!"
With head bowed In thought she
moved away. Jane, on her purt, left
the window and >vout to the open front
door. Consclentiou.-ly, she did not
cross the threshold, but restrained her
self to looking out. On the steps of
the porch sat William alone, his back
toward the house.
"Willie." suld Jane softly, and, as he
made no response, she lifted her voice
a little, "Will-eel*
"Wliatchwant!" he grunted, not mov
ing.
"Willie, I to[d mamma 1 was sorry I
made you feel so bad."
"All right:" he returned curtly.
"Well, when I haf to go to bed, Wil
lie," she said, "mamma told me be
cause I made you feel bad I haf to go
upstairs by myself tonight."
8he paused, seeming to hope that he
would say something, but he spake not.
"Willie, 1 don't haf to go for awhile
yet, but when I do-maybe In about a
half an hour—I wish you'd come stand
at the foot of the stairs till I get up
there. The light's lit upstairs, but
down around here It's kind of dark."
He did not answer.
"Will you, Willie?"
"Oh, all right!" he said.
This contented her, and she seated
herself so quietly upon the floor Just
inside the door ihat he ceased to be
aware of her, thinking she had gone
away. He sat staring vacantly into
tbe darkness, which had come on with
that abruptness which begins to be
noticeable in September. His elbows
were on his knees, and his body was
sunk far forward in an attitude of des
olation.

The Origin of "U»h»r.''
Speaking of ushers, I learned an In
teresting thing from an English man
ager. He told me that in the old days
the theater men used to sit around ta
bles and drink during a performance,
and if they became boisterous or annoy
ing the manager sent waiters down to
hush them up. These men were offi
cially known as hushers, but as a cock
ney cannot-say his U's—where they be
long—they became known as 'ushers!—

Camouflage Not New.
The art of camouflage is nothing new
to the American Indian, as the Chris
tian Science Monitor points out. Ages
ago, comparatively speaking, before be
had heard anything about firearms, he
was accustomed to steal unobserved on
a herd of buffaloes by the simple device
of decking himself out with a buffalo
skin and horns. If that wasn't a resort
to camouflage, what was it?
