anybody hut some nelglihor, fluttered
the neat and circumspect little lady.
"It's only me. Iteulah," "poke the
bluff voire of glnntJike John Moore,
her dlntnnt cousin. "About once a
year I get around here. Why don't
you ever rome and see u, Ueuliih?"
"You know I never go anywhere
now," she mild, briefly.
"Well," spoke John, plumping down
Into an ensy clwilr. "I've heard some
wonderful things about those prt
chickens of yours, and I've come to
find out aiMut them. Well! Well!
Well !"
His ruddy fare began to pucker com
ically, and he let out a great guffaw,
"What are you laughing at, John
Moore?" demanded Miss Uculah, with
severity.
Her cousin could not reply for some
time. Waddling u round In the chicken
yard a full score of Plymouth Kock
chickens were pnrtullng proudly, at
tired In close-fitting overcoats,
"It's a great Idea." said John, "but
It's the funniest thing I ever saw."
"I don't see anything very funny
shout It," resented Miss Jones. "Some
of the poor things froze up Inst win
ter. They shan't this."
John Moore grinned the harder as
he strode to the window and again
looked out. John Moore fancied he
saw something spectacular In It all.
"iVe got an Idea, Beululi," he said.
"I'm looking for 'a novelty, and that's
what brought me here. I want to buy
those chickens."
Miss P.euhih regarded her cousin
sharply and then suspiciously.
"They're not for sale," she declared
at once.
"Then I wont to borrow them
rent them, we'll call It. We are work
ing up a procession," John went on
to explain; "torcldlghts, music and
all that. We're going to have a hay
rack, showing prosperity heaps of
apples, corn, goddess of liberty and the
like. I want to scatter those winter
clothed pets of yours over the load.
It will be a great catch."
It proved a greater catch than the
Ingenious committeeman had expected.
It Mas two days later when Miss
Jones saw a wagon draw up to the
yard. Her pets, well fed and lively,
were e!ng returned safe and sound
to their coops, as her cousin had
promise!.
The weekly paper hnd Just arrived.
Miss Jones had flushed In a startled
way as she rend "the news," It np-
peared that the overconted chicks hail
been the novelty of the. procession.
The district had a great many chicken
farms. The home display had won
over this Interest, they hnd voted for
Allen Parsons, and that cundldate was
elected.
Allen Tarsonst How that name
awoke palnfnl memories In the heart
of the recluse 1 She had drawn open
a drawer In the old-fashioned secre
tary and had tuken thence a sheet of
paper, closely written over, and a
photograph. " The latter was a photo
type of the portrait of the successful
candidate In the paper. There was a
knock at the door. Miss Jones opened
It to face the successful candidate.
"I had to call to thank you for the
great support your pets gave me,"
spoke the sialwart, flne-Jooklng visi
tor. "Whjn Miss Jones Iteulah !"
At sight of the man she had loved,
still loved In secret, her estranged
fiance. Miss Jones puled, tottered, and
Allen had to help her to-a chair In
the sitting room. As he started to
leave her his face fell upon the pho
tograph and the letter, Ills eyes di
lated as he traced a line or two In U.
latter.
"lleidah," he said, his lips set kindly
but determined, "has this Jetter any
thing to do with your rejection of my
suit two years ago?"
"It has everything to do with It,"
faltered poor Ileuhth. "Can you look
tit It and wonder why? You wrote It.'
"Yes, I wrote It. but ns a model for
a ..friend who wished to propose to a
young lady In another town. How did
It come Into your possession?"
"Miss Simmons brought It to mo
she said she found It."
"Stole It, more likely," asserted Al
len. "My old landlady and a mischief
maker 1 Oh, !ulah! And has this
foolish misunderstanding kept us so
cmeUy apart all of this time?"
John Moore, coining Into the house
to see his cousin, halted, stared, stood
rooted to the spot, and then retreated
softly with a. great chuckle of satis
faction. For Deulah was resting confidingly

Finely upholstered. Equipped with electric starting and lighting, system and
demountable rims with 3 V6-inch tires all around. A real family car. Anybody can

which goes with Ford cars, low cost of purchase price, small cost of operation
and maintenance. Won't you come in and look at it?
