“THE DEAR OLD DAYS.”
Gimme back the- dear old day*—all the
boys in line—
“Boy stood on the hurnln’ dee,” an'
"Bingen on the Rhine!"
"'Twas midnight; in his guarded lent"—
we spoke It high and low,
While Mary trotted out that lamb "whose
fleece w as white as snow!”
Gimme back th> dear old days that Metn'ry
loves to keep,
With “Eliot, 'tis u fearful night—then's
danger on the deep!"
The o'd-titne awkward gestures—the jerk,
meant fer n bow—
W» said that ''Curfew should not ring,"
hut, Lord! it's ringin' now!
Gimme back the dear old day s—the path
way through the dells
To the sohoolhouse In the blossoms; the
sound of far-off beils
Tinklin' 'crost the meadows; the song of
the bird an' brook;
Tiie old-time dirtionary, an' the blue-back
spellin' book!
Gone, like a dream, forever!—A city's hid
the place
Where stood the old log schoolhouse; an' no
familiar face
Is smilin' there in welcome beneath a morn
in' sky—
There's a bridge aerost the river; an' we've
crossed, an' said "Good-by!"

A TEST
By
BELLE MAN I AXES
tOopyright, 1905, by W. (t, chapman.)
OH to be 18 again and a debutante! ”
sighed Rose Cantrell, as she gazed
upon a young vision of loveliness enter
ing the ballroom with her chaperon.
"I am glad you are not,” said the
man standing beside her. “Your lit
tle friend there is a beauty and no
mistake; she will make two hearts j
palpitate to-night, from all accounts.
Who do you think will win out. Ste- i
phen, the stalwart, or Lionel, the Gib
son ian? I understand they are both
devotees at the shrine of the little j
debutante.”
"Alas! I fear the conditions favor
a Lionel night,' replied Rose with a
sigh. “He is dangerously handsome
and fascinating. Stephen is too mas
sive and overwhelmingly in evening
dress. He would look better in a uni- j
form or in a careless hunting cos- i
tiune. Lionel is in his element on such ]
an occasion.”
"She is divinely tall.” said the man, j
still gazing at the young girl. "Did j
you tell me she was an orphan? She

ton"
“She stays with Mrs. Weston while
her parents are traveling,” replied '
Rose,
“What are they traveling for, and
why doesn’t she travel with them?”
persisted her interlocutor
Rose sighed and regretted the curi
osity of her friend, Tom. She also

regretted that Pearl had confided to
her a secret that was not to be im
parted to a third person. Fortunately,
their waltz was on, and Tom forgot
his inquiry.
Throughout the evening Rose
watched with interest the division of
the greater share of Pearl's dances j
between the tall, broad-shouldered !
man in whose eyes was a world of !
silent adoration, and the gay. hand
some youth who danced with such
reckless abandon.
"It could hardly be expected, 1 sup
pose,” cogitated Rose, "that a girl so
young and inexperienced as Pearl
would make the sen hie choice and
take Stephen. Still Pearl is wise be
yond her years. 1 wonder if she will
tell them what she told me. It should
make no difference to a man in love,
but 1 imagine Lionel will shy at the
disclosure but Stephen, so capable of
the grand passion, ought not to mind
anything."
A few days after the ball Pearl came
to pay a visit to Rose, who proposed
on a rainy afternoon that they tele
phone Tom to come and divert them.
"Whom shall 1 ask him to bring
with him, Stephen or Lionel?” she
asked, turning to Pearl.
"Both,” replied the sagacious
maiden, with an enchanting smile.
"The Lady or the Tiger,” thought
Rose, as she gave Tom his instruc
tions.
The three men promptly responded
to the summons and when Itose was
serving lea, Tom casually remarked
to Pearl:
"You have come to the city in my
absence, Miss Craig.”
"Yes,” she replied. “You have been
away two years, haven't you? and my
guardian. Mrs, Weston, only moved
here a year ago.”
"I believe Rose said that your par
ents are traveling?”
Rose tried to divert his attention,
but his eyes were fixed on Pearl, who
appeared quite at ease.
"They are." she replied; "and now
we are here, all friends, together. I
am going to tell you the story of my
life, which is known to but very few.
Rose among the number. My parents
are dwarfs and exhibit in a circus in
England. 1 was sent to this country
when 1 was quite a child to be edu
cated. I was placed in charge of Mrs.
Weston, who saw in me a resemblance
to a child she had lost. 1 visit my
parents frequently, and they are de
voted entirely to my happiness."
There was a profound silence after
this astonishing revelation, which
came so suddenly that Rose with all
her tact knew not what to say. .-' a
dared not glance at Tom, who was
not an adept at concealing his feelings,
and she feared his intense surprise
would hurt Pearl. He was the first
to break the silence.
"My dear Miss Craig," he said with
a kindly smile, “it does indeed seem
odd that one so (all should come of a
dwarfed race, ‘but I can match you in
family peculiarities. I have a brother
who is his own uncle!”
"Tom, what are you talking about!"
exclaimed Rose in relieved tones.
"It is true.” he persisted. "He mar
ried his step aunt, and of course his
aunt's husband would be his uncle!"
Pearl laughed heartily, and Rose felt
that she did indeed love him for tak
ing the astounding information so
easily. Lionel recovered himself and
began questioning Pearl about her life
and her parents, as if it were a most
ordinary statement she had made.
Stephen alone was tongue-tied and ill
at ease.
"He looks." thought Rose, “like a
man who has had a most terrible
shock."
When he finally spoke, it was to
propose departure. Lionel acquiesced
and asked Pearl if he might escort her
home, but she explained that she was
staying with Rose. Stephen merely
bowed his adieu.
“I'll never again." reflected Rose,
“judge a man by appearances. They
both acted just the reverse of what
I expected.”
In the evening Tom came again,
but this time alone.
"I thought,” said Rose, “that Lionel
would come up with you?”
"Lionel has just left the city. He
had an urgent summons away, and
sent good-bye to you both.”
"Et tu. Brute." thought Rose, glanc
ing at Pearl, who seemed in no ways
disturbed by the information.
"Miss Pearl." said Tom. thinking to
break an awkward moment. "Rose
says you play. Can't you give us
some music?"
"Certainly; if you and Rose will go
in the next room to listen. I will play
you some dreamy, slow music.”
This was quite satisfactory to Rose
and Tom. and they went into the li
brary. As Pearl sat at the piano, her
fingers wandering harmoniously over
the keys, the maid announced a caller,
but Pearl w*as so absorbed in the mu
tic, she did not hear the announce
ment.
“Pearl.” said a manly voice beside
her.
She gave a lit tie. nervous start and
looked up from the piano to see Ste
phen standing at her side.
“Pearl, l ain glad to find you alone,
1 have loved you for a long time, as
you must know. I didn't know how
much until I heard vour little story
to-day. It seemed to me- I must take
you then and there into ray arms
1 c uld not speak without telling you
1 lo--fd you, so I came now to ask you
if th re is any hope Pearl-■”
"I wonder,” said Rob* to Tom, "why
Pearl has stopped playing. We
muf n't neglect her.”

STORY OF IOWA TWISTER.
Picked Up Mare and Colt and Re
turned Them to Earth With
out Injury.
"Talking alctut cyclones, the most
peculiar circumstances I ever heard
of took place over near Mingo 24 yeans
ago.” said H. W. Robinson, according to
the Lies Moines Register and Leader, j
“One of those terrible twisters came !
tearing down from the southwest
toward Mingo along late one summer
afternoon, but apparently not in line j
with the town Many of the citizens
about Mingo saw it and most of them
took to shelter.
"Over in the field in the direct path of
the whirling mass were a mare and colt j
feeding. Suddenly the whirlwind was
upon them. Well. sir. that animal anti 1
her colt were lifted up just like an
ordinary wind would lift a piece of pa- j
per and carried straight up to a consid- ;
erable height and let down again as i
gentle like as though they were being
lowered in an elevator. They alighted |
almost in the place where they were be- !
fore the storm struck. Apparently con
fused at first, the animals finally pulled
themselves together, and as the storm
passed on began eating grass as though
nothing had happened.”
