Beatrice Fairfax Problems That Perpl ex Loalnc a Suitor. i'oar Misn Fairfax: For about a year ami,a Half 1 went about with a young titan who lived n distance from mo. His Intentions were serious and , 1 thought a great deal of him. The ] last time he visited me everything he said or did annoyed me, and I let him know It. On the way to his train I stoke particularly about his clothes. 1 did not think he was as neat as he ! might he. I knew this would hint him, ns It was not the first time I had mentioned it. Everything seemed all right when we pat-led. and he said he would'write and let me know when he would see me again. Two years have passed, and I have not heard a word from him. Mia sister corresponds with me. but never mention* hi* name On# year ago I met him at a friend's home for just a few minute,*, and he acted very coldly toward me. Do you think he was justified in ignnrfng me, and should I have written him an apology, or am I will rid of him? c. M. n. Perhaps he thinks he la well rid of you. Perpetual nagging Is bound t»i disgust the most even tempered of men. If everything the man said or dil annoyed you. there doesn't seem much i iiHnce that there was anything you cared about • xcept having a de voted suitor. I am sure he was even more annoyed by having you And fault with him all the time. Don’t \t*u suppose vou nan other qualities • besides your ovfftritkfcl attitude which he might have wanted to hange? Learn from this to be less ' arrogant, less rritiraj and more in i lined to remember that the precious gift of seeing yourself as others see j vou isn’t yours, so you must learn to > I judge generously, THE NEBBS— there are two sides to every question.

When I saw Alfred Durkee lift his wife from the train and carry her i to the Marvin station in his arms. I wasted no time in greeting them, hut instead rushed to the lone taximan r,f the little village, finding a stranger j instead of the genial Doran who used j to Rfrvt u*. "Wait here for me, please," I in structed him. "I want you to go down to Durkee's.” 'All right," he replied laconically, and I went swiftly toward the sta tion. meeting Alfred coming out from ft. I have the taxi right here." I said. "What's the matter?" “Leila stumbled, and. I am afraid, wrenched her ankle a bit when we changed from the express at Jama ica. It upset her nerves for a little, but I think she's ail right now. But —" with a sudden look of astonish ment, "how did you know, and—" "How do I happen to be here?” I retorted, sudden relief that Leila had not been really ill. as I feared, sending my spirits upward. "You aren't very hospitable, are you? I'm visiting your mother." "Where's the Dicky-bird?” he asked, as he turned with rne toward the station. ‘‘.Madge! You Dear!" "Out of the city for three days.” I explained, “and I’m on my way to the farm via this route. Strolled over to meet you tonight, saw you lift Leila from the train, deduced that you needed a taxi—Is the explanation satisfactory?” "Perfectly Shcrlockian." he gibed, and then I was at Leila's side, not ing rellevedly that in spile of her in jury, her eyes were less tortured, her face more composed than It had been the night before. Madge! You dear:” Her face light ed up with genuine pleasure as I bent to kiss her. "How wonderful to find you here! Has Alfred told you what a stumble heels I was?” "He told me your ankle was hurt,” I returned, "and the taxi is waiting outside. Alf, supi>ose you tell him ; to come to this door"—I indicated a door a few feet from where we were sitting. "Great head.” Alfred commented appreciatively, and promptly departed I waited only till the door had closed after him before turning to Leila. "They will be surprised and griev ed to see you in this state.” I said, using the plural pronoun designedly. 'They?" she reapeated. ”Oh, Is Dicky at the bouse?" "No, but Bess Dean is there for din ner." I replied, hoping that my voice was casual and carefully looking away from her. I did nijt wish her to suspect that my Information was meant as a warning. I heard a little gasping breath hut after a second of two, Lelia a voice sounded composedly. A Short Hide. I wish abed chosen some other night. I do hate to be ill or disabled when strangers are in the house. Not that Bess is a stranger—she's awfulijr good company, but—she isn't like you.” I turned to her in time to receive the wistful, tender smile with which she f.nished, and I paid a little mental tribute to the willpower wihich had enabled her to conquer the emotion I knew she had felt at the mention of Bess Dean's name. There was distinct cleverness, too In ’he fact that she had not professed pleasure at the news of Bess Dean's presence as a less adroit woman would have done That later on she would r tifkle her fears and doubts to me. I was sure, but the imminence rf Alfred's return forhade any giving way to the emotion with which such a confidence could not help but be in vested. Indeed, she scarcely had fin ished speaking before he came breezi ly into the station again. ' He'll he at the door by the time we are,'' he said. ' Ready, Sweetheart?” His tender smile at Leila was some thing for any wife to cherish. "Don't you think I could walk?” she asked. "That's not the question.” he flash ed back, slopping toward her. "You're not going to try. Put your arms around my neck, there—that's right. Madge, have you her purse'' All set, everybody.” He bore her light weight with ease thr ;gh the door of the wai ing room to the tail. “Suppose you get in first. Madge.” he said, "and you can ease her down to the seat.” I obeyed him, and Leila was seated Oh Man , By Briggs ^NOW *ftHAT You "l---s WHOLE \ ~i(K> oAlD I If DAY OFF LETS T/nKET SomEThiNo') A Nice RIDEOUT IN / -5600) mtJ ;Tne.
