Clarence Itudd aa u boy was full of
fancies. Fie loved pictures, music,
story. He was a voracious reader, his
favorites being the "Arabian Nights'
Entertainments" and "The Wonder
Book."
One day in autumn, when Clarence
was about sixteen years old, he heard
his sisters talking about Halloween.
Ho asked them what it was, and It
was explained to him. Bess told him
that she was intending when she went
to bed to look Into a mirror and ex
pected to see there the face of the man
she would marry looking over her
shoulder. There Is something attrac
tive In the idea, especially to a very
' young person. It seized upon Clar
I ence's wonder loving disposition and
I would not let go. There was one
[ feature about it that he could not un
I derxtand—if a slrl might see the Im
j; age of her future husband looking over
j her shoulder iu a mirror, why might
j not a boy see his future wife?
j There Is no reason why a sensitive
j boy should not he a manly boy, and
j Clarence was both lie would not. for

| CLARENCE SAW ALICE'S REFLECTION IN
THE UlKltOlt.
the world, let his sisters know that ho
would do u girlish thing. Indeed, he
I would not do a girlish thing, lie
would not look in a mirror to see the
! face of a sweetheart simply because
i that was a girl's prerogative. Hut be
fore thinking lie gave expression to
the idea thai there was 110 uiore reason
why a boy should not see his sweet
heart thau that a girl should see her
lover. Then as soon as Le had spoken
the words he blushed
His sister Kate, two "ears younger
than Clarence, saw the blush, and It
gave her an idea. Koto was full of
mischief, and nothing ao delighted her
as playing a prank. If site could only
arrange to have her brother see a girl's
face In a mirror on tl e romii g Hal
loween! She clapped lie/ hands in
glee at the thought.
Once the idea had taaen root in
Kate's head she fell to planning the
details. At first she thought as to
which of her girl friends she would
prefer for Clarence's sweetheart. She
passed them all In review and at last
decided that not one of them was good
enough for him. Beside*:, the effect
upon him would be core pronounced
and he would more 'lkely be deceived
If he should see ono he had never seen
before. Then Alice Arche. whom Kate
had met ai boarding school and ad
mired very much, occurred to her.
Clarence had never seen Alice. Knte
would ask her friend to visit her on
the 31st of October. Hut she must con
trive that Clarence should not see
Alice before seeing her reflection in
the mirror. This would be difficult to
arrange. It might be easier if she
took Alice into her plan, but this she
did not wish to do It' she could help it
After much thought she concluded that
nlone she would not be equal to the
aisk. Indeed, it seemed that the whole
family must be in the secret or It
would be given away. She went to
her mother and begged her assistance.
Mrs. Rudd siniled at her daughter's
plan and at first pronounced it im
possible. but finally, converted by
Kate's pleading, she gave way and
promised her aid. She said it would
be best for the plan to take no notice
of Halloween as it approached. Alice's
coming could be kept from the rest of
the family, and it might be possible
for them to spring their trap without
any one except themselves being in the
secret.
Alice Arche received the invitation
and accepted It Bessie Rudd, four
years Kate's senior, was admitted to
the sccret since her assistance was
necessary. Alice arrived after dark
on nalloween. and Kate was driv
en to the station to meet her. On
her return with the guest all the chil
dren younger than herself were safe
In beil. Besa was In Clarence's room
n lth him. She hail gone there to make
herself useful In carrying out the plan.
She knew of ICnte and Alice's arrival
and hail timed her visit accordingly.
The door of the room was open. She
had continued to get her brother with
his back to it and his face toward the
miror of his dresser. In this position
he remained while chatting with her.
"Tread softly," said Kate to Alice as
they went upstairs. "The children are
asleep." Kate led the way to a corri
dor leading past Clarence's room and,
pausing, said:
"You will find your room at the end
of this hall. The door is ajar, and the
light is turned low. I am going for
some toilet articles that I had forgot
ten. I will be with you in a few min
utes."
Alice proceeded as directed. Pass
ing the room in which Bess and Clar
ence were^Hie naturally gave it a quick
glance. That Clarence saw Alice's re
flection in the mirror was evident to
Bess from the expression on his face,
but she paid no attention to it, chatting
on as if sho had seen nothing. What
she was saying her brother did not
heed. He was thinking j>f the girl's
glance he had Been in the ro'rror be
fore lilm.
"Some one—a stranger—Jnst passed
the door. Did you see anything?"
"See anything? What do you mean?"
Now, Halloween was In Clarence's
mind, and for a moment the Idea that
he had seen his future wife dominated
him. But fear of being rallied for
such a fancy deterred him from fol
lowing the matter further.
Bess proceeded with what she had
been saying and knew that Kate's
scheme had been successful. Soon aft
er this she went to Kate's room, where
sho found both Kate and their mother,
and the conspirators, especially Kate,
listened eagerly to what she had to re
l>ort concerning Clarence and the re
flection and what he had said about It
"So far so good," exclaimed Kate,
after listening to what her sUter said.
"Now what?" ■»
"There Is nothing more to be done,"
said the mother. "Clarence will meet
your friend at breakfast and"—
"And what?"
"It won't be easy to explain the mat
ter, will it?" Mrs. Ruild finished
thoughtfully.
"Indeed It won't," Bess remarked.
"I'm afraid, mother, we've got into a
muddle iu consenting to aid Kate."
"I'll keep Alice in her room In the
morning." said Kate. "That will give
as time to make up a story or some
thing."
"We'll simply make a Joke of It, as
was intended," said Mrs. RudtL "Come,
girls; go to bed."
Clarence liudd was as sure that be
had seen u girl's face in the mirror
on Halloween as he was of his ex
istence. But why had not Bess,
who was sitting with her face to the
open door, seeu the tlesh and blood as
be had seen the image? lie was puz
zled, but his mind clung to the correct
solution that the girl had been in the
house. Would she bo there tomorrow?
lie expected to see her at breakfast.
But when morning came and the
stranger did not appear at the break
fast table, no member of the family
making any reference to her, Clarence
was staggered. lie studied the face
jf each of the older members of the
family, but gained no satisfaction.
After breakfast he went out, and after
a conference of the conspirators, at
which it was decided that the guest
must be informed of the prank that
had been played. Kate carried a break
fast up to Alice and while It was being
eaten told the whole story.
If there was any fear that Alice
vfSuld be displeased it wi « allayed at
once.
"There's but one way to carry out
your scheme to its proper end, Kate,"
she said. "1 must go away from here
without your brother seeing tne."
"And then?"
"And tiieu—let me see—it wouiu uo
n {rood plan for you to visit me and ar
range that be should com», too, while
yon are with uie."
Mrs. Rudd endeavored to get the
girls to bring the matter to an end
without, as she expressed It, running
any more risk, but Alice was obdurate
and insisted ou having her way.
"You put me into it," she said, "with
out consulting tue. There's lots of fun
In it, and I don't wish to see it spoil
ed. 1 think you should permit me to
handle it from uow on."
It was decided to let her have her
way. She left at once, and it was ar
ranged that Kate should visit her with
in a few weeks.
Clarence's natural reticence prevent
ed his saying anything about the face
he had seen on Halloween, and the
secret of the conspiracy was kept from
him. In time Kate went to visit Alice
Arche and when about to return wrote
her brother that she had "picked out"
her friend for him, at the same time
suggesting that he come for his sister
and escort her home.
Alice Arche and Kate Btidd agreed
that when Clarence appeared they
would keep up their game. But when
his sister introduced him to the girl
whose image he had seen in his mirror
Ids expression was too much for them.
Neither girl succeeded in keeping a
straight face. Kate burst out laugh
ing, and Alice, seeing that the end had
come, followed suit
"I knew there was a prank being
played on me!" exclaimed Clarente,
prevaricating, for he knew nothing of
the kind. "Come; out with it. I must
have an explanation at once."
The explanation was made, and Miss
Arche treated the affair as the Joke It
was. but it had made an Impression
on the impressible Clarence. He had
for weeks been dreaming of the face
he had seen on Halloween, and It
was not destined to fade. Years after
his sister had played her prank upon
hiui he married Alice Arche.
