A SILENT
PROPAGANDA
By OTILLIA F. PFEIFFER
(Copyright. Wniiri .Nrw.paiwr toiual
Mrs. Jason Crown lived In tlte show
ninnslon of the town In Aftoii Ter
rat e. Her ulster,' Mrs. Kincst i'arks,
more hmnl.ly resided In a modest lit-
tie cottHKe tn Arlor Place. The for
mer conceived herself to le the soclnl
queen of llntiiipton. The Inner wn
content to he aide to clothe herself
and her fninily respeetuhly and m
the household hills when due.
The P.rowim lived hlj;h through the
BiilTernnre of Miss Milieu Lhiseoll,
their uleie. nnd limited uloug on cred
it. All liraintoit knew the circum
stances of their rie In the world so
dully. A hrother nf Mm. I'.rown ami
Mrs. I'aiks had died leatlng a tine
home ii ltd quite a fortune to nn or
phan daughter. He had appointed Mr.
Hrown executor of the estate und, on
account of his sister, a very liberal
compensation for his services as
guardian of Althea. The sequence
was that the lirown move1 from
modest quurtera into the lrlseoll man
sion rent free, and were lavish In
expenditures, ns they all came out of
the estate.
At once Mrs. P.iown liean to hlooin
forth as a devotee of fashion and so
ciety. She piouped uhout her a spe
cial clique, feied and feasted them und
the humble Parks family, not helug
considered eliirihle for admission to
the charmed circle, were practleully
Ignored.
Not that they minded It much, for
they were not of (he kind that Haunt
ed in false colors. Then, besides, they
had the love and confidence of Altheu.
yiie was a bright, heartsotne girl, and
very soon saw through the thin veneer
of her puurdlanH. They had tried in
vain to induce her to treat the Par lis'
people as Inferiors, hut uothiug could
spoil her. There was scarcely a day
that she did not pass a pad of It In
the company of her favorite aunt and
her Utile ones.
For two years Althea lind been
away at a select seminary, and tills
gave the Browns nn opportunity to
spread out more than ever. Their
guardianship was nearly at an end,
according to the te rms of the w ill, and
those who professed to know hinted
that Jason P.roun was growing q-ulte
reckless In his use of the Drlscoll re
sources. One day a fine looking, gen
tlemanly appearing young man came
to Hrampton whose evident good
breeding and courteous ways commend
ed him on sight as "an eligible" by the
lirown set. It was reported that he
was sent on the mission of looking up
some law matters. He lived at the
best hotel nnd had an automobile, but
made the mistake of his life, as Mrs.
Brown gave It out, by taking up with
the I'arks people. Once he was seen
taking the tired-nut Mrs. I'arks and
the children out for a regular airing,
he fell many degrees In the favor of
the social (tieen of Brampton.
"A very presentable young man," ob
served that critical lady to her close
friends," and I understand he comes
from a creditable family; but we must
draw the line strictly." .'
"Why, what do you in'ean?" was In
quired. .
''He seems to favor the Parks con
tingent. Of course, they are my rela
tives, but they do not belong In our
class. Mr. Throop seems to enjoy
their company and that of their kind,
and I have cancelled an Invitation to
htm to my next reception, not cnrlng
to take any risks."
"Oh, dear, no! Selectness in every
thing, dear Mrs. Ilrown." was sub
mitted, and to others, when Inquiries
were made concerning the newcomer,
Mrs, Brown simply looked mysterious
and shrugged her shoulders. This was
the cue to her servile followers, and
Sidney Throop was Ignored purely
through a systematic propaganda of
silence.
"I think It your duty, Jason, to probe
and resent the mysterious operations
of this young man," observed Mrs.
Brown to her husband, "What busi
ness he has looking Into our affairs?"
"I'll five him a piece of my mind."
was the rejoinder, and the neit day
Sidney Throop, doing some writing at
a desk In his attorney's office, was
confronted by Jason Brown with the
words :
"I've como to find out why you are
making Inquiries about my private af
fairs." Throop arose and closed the office
door. "To save you trouble. If you
must know," he answered, "I have been
acting in behalf of your niece, who
baa authorized me to gather up In
formation looking to a cancellation of
your powers as administrator."
Jason Brown turned pale. "How Is
that your business?" be blustered.
"Just this: to make It easy for you
to resign without the public being ap
prized of your Irregularities, i roust
use plain words, Mr. Brown Althea
wishes to save you humiliation and
disgrace."
"Althea!" ejaeuhited Brown.
"Exactly my wife. We were mar
ried quietly two months since."
Mr. and Mrs. Brown left Brampton
a month later for New York, where
the former had been offered a very
lucrative position, but the community
was only" partly deluded.
The Parks group were placed In
charge of the old homestead and
Althea and Kidney made their home
with them, all hands, under new har
monious circumstances, happy as tn
day was long.
A GIRL OF THE
HOUR
By ALDEN CHAPMAN
(Copyright, Vttvrn Ntwtpaper IMbrI
The lirllllatit M))iitfn?9M in the love-
lv Kit tit IMtmlu 1 1 it fttitt M'ikiitil hutea
consumed. Hi leust have nlwlied the
distant cause of the varied emotions It 1
expressed, had the object of the same
been present at that moment. For
years she and Maurice Croft hail been
playmates and then lovers. She had
come to the city to visit relatives and
here, within a week, mourning anil
missing her cavalier true, dreadrul
news of him had reached Ithoda. A
cousin of Maurice coming to the city
for a flying visit had called upon her.
"Yes, there has been cnrrylngs on,"
submitted chatty Winifred Forbes,
who herself had once experienced a
secret fondness for Maurice, and not
loath to bring the news to a success
ful rival. "The silly boy has I ecu
'taking a (ling, a he calls It, and Is
bent on showing olT to the limit."
"As how, now?" suggested Ithoda,
calmly enough.
"Well, he went over to Springfield
with Aleck Prince who, ns you know.
Is wild enough to serve ns a warning.
They had a two days' sojourn, visited
the races, played billiards nnd fancied
they were going the pace. To wind up
they visited a show. The premiere
was a dancer. Lulu l.angford, 1 be
lieve they call her. She made eyes at
Maurice, recognl.lng a green simple
ton, I suppose. In her act she drops
a bouquet and then airily sends It out
Into the audience with tip of her
dainty toe. It landed In Maurice's lap.
I don't believe he did anything more
than send this charming Lulu a
bouquet the net day. hut he enme
back home like a knight errant vaunt
ing the conquest of Impressible hearts
without number. Do you know he hns
a dozen colored photographs of this
Lulu hung about In his room, showing
her In her various poses? I saw one
portraying her as 'the girl of the hour'
high heels, the latest ns to garb,
blonde hair, a golden aureole, nnd nil
that. He talks ef 'the life,' and you'd
think he was a past grand master of
the giddy w hirl !"
But nfter Winifred had left, the little
hands clenched, the pearly teeth set
vengefully. and Ithoda uttered three
forceful words!
"III cure him!"
K hod si had not departed from pimple
neatness of nttlre during her visit with
her wealthy relatives. She had thought
more of Inspecting nrt galleries and
museums than attending shows and
social gatherings, but now she en
gaged In a confidential confnb with her
stylish cousin. Phyllis, and asked he
to co-operate with her In pun'shliig
Maurice for daring to look at another
woman.
"Ton are Just about my size nnd
your dresses will fit me very nicely,"
planned the audacious plotter. "1
shall ask Matirhe to the city to re
main w'th your brother for a few day
nnd net as my special escort, lie shall
have n real sample of high life. In
deed! I"11 warrant he will pine fnr
quiet, Inexpensive vltlnge life and his
occasional reasonable drive In n livery
buggy nnd the humdrum but whole
Borne town concerts whn I have
taught Mm a salutary lesson!"
Maurice appeared the day nffer he
hnd received a summons from hi Indv
hive. His little whirl In a small city
had taught him that life In the me
tropolis wa' expensive, nnd be came
with a well filled pocket honk, but
never ganging the whims and caprices
of a willful tlaneee. He was astounded
to be greeted by the modest, tasteful
village Inamorata arrayed In the very '
exrreme of smart nttlre." Ithoda had i
