A Race For ji Wife By EDITH V. ROSS Miss Jiuiuclln Medocroft she was usually cnllcd Jack was nil ntliletlc girl of the period. She was the beat skater and tennis player in tlio county, and, ns for motoring on Innd or water, she 1 111 tl no equala among women and few unions men. Jack wns one of those ingenuous, holtcrHkelter, fearless persons who are nlwaya beloved. All tho men were In love with her, nnd she was positively pestered wjth proposals. She began preparing for lovo bank ruptcy by being so tender hearted whenever she refused n man Unit upon Ills begging her not lo deny him all hope sho said ho might hopo Just n lit tle bit The next man she promised she would try to love lilni. And so It went on, tho numbers of these aspir ants for her hand increasing every day till sho did not know herself how many of them there were. One day sho received a lecture from her mother in this wise: ".Tnquelln, do you know that, you nre wasting your opportunities? You won't nlways be young, One by one these young mpii who wish to marry you will begin to drop off till nil arc gone. And then wliit will you do?" "I'll look out that tho Inst one doesn't get nwny," Jnqnolln stood half nu hour of lhl tnlk, nt tho end of which sho told her mother thnt who would come to a deci sion among her lovers immediately. Tho good lady asked her to nnino thoso who had proposed to her. Jnck gnvo tlio names nnd was told that her decision would notbo interfered with except in tlio case of Dick .Gregory, who was very much nmong men whnt .lack vns among women. The moth er's prefcrenco wns Uenry IUlllard, n young clergyman. Why Jack didn't decldo between thoso two men instead of following the course sho did no ono knows. That one of tho two was her preference every ono supposed. Only ono mini could hnvo first plnco in her heart, but which thnt ono was only Jack herself knew. She had only to accept the one, and the other, with tho rest of her Bultors, would relapse. .so far as sho was con cerned, into nothingness. Jack wroto each of her admirers that, not bolng nble to iiccopt them nil, she would Institute a test exnmlnntlon ns to their fitness. In Lapland, she said, tho groom must catch his bride. She proposed that tile man slio would mitrry should catch her. Sho lived oh a rjver that some fifty miles below pass ed tho city of 11. Sho would leave tho next morning for I) but whether by rail, steambont, trolley enr, motor car or neroplnno she did not sny. The ninu who llrat proposed to her after she hnd commenced her Journey would bo accepted. AVo will follow only the efforts of two of tho applicants. Dick Gregory and Henry nilllnrd. Illlllnrd wns loath to enter upon so undignified n contest. Hut his objection, was based solely on account of hls1 being In orders. In his heart tlio plan delighted him, for he wus as fond of athletic sports ns either Jack or Dick. Ho had been whllo In college n qunrtorback on tho university team, had won a prize in a motorboat rueo ifml had dono some Hying in tho nlr. None of Jack's suitors belloved thnt she would select an ordinary method of conveyance. Tho question wns whether sho would go by Innd or water. Greg ory possessed an ndvantago In the fact thnt ho owned nnd operated nn aeroplane. He could therefore go quickly and seo over n broader nreu tlinn ono moving by any other convey ance. Ho selected his flying mnchlno for his convcynnco in tho contest. Illl llnrd choso an automobile. Doth these men went to tho steam boat landing and railway Btatlon, thinking those places tho most advan tageous points from which to lenrn of Jack's movements. IUlllard arriv ed thero half nn hour aftor tho dny boat had left the dock nnd learned thnt Jack hed left on it. What 'had lieen oxpected of her that sho would 0 in somo convcynnco of her own fnlled. IUlllard turned his mi to down tho river, taking a road that run on tho On ilk besldo It. It was not long bo foro ho overtook the steamer and hop ed to get aboard at tlio next landing place, which Was somo twenty nillos below. . Gregory reached tho shirting point Boon after nilllnrd and gained tho jiaino information, but ho was obliged to hnvo his aeroplane dragged to open ground for starting and then to make several attempts before getting up In tho nlr. When llnally ho arosu ho saw the steamer pursuing her way down tho river far bolow. Now, tlio two rivals were In one respect In tho same fix. Tho winner must get aboard the boat. IUlllard, seeing tho aeroplane, realized this and wondered how ho might get nhend of his rival. Putting on nil speed, he got Into n position In ndvnnco of tho bout and, leaving his car on tho shore, plunged nnd swam for tho channel in which tho boat must pass. Gregory, seeing tho movo from above, dipped and, leaving Ills neroplnno on tho sur face, also took to tlio water. Thon commenced a swimming match be tween the two men. Gregory had struck the wnter without calculaUng aufllclently on tho movement of tho boat, which camo upon IUlllard first ami ho was taken aboard. Jnck is now tho clergyman's wife and admitted ns soon ns tho raco was over that sho had hoped he would win. Tho two mnko a very nednto couple. ASINGULAR LETTER By JOHN Y. LARNED We don't know how many cases have occurred where minors have been swin dled out of their Inheritances by rela tives, guardians or executors, but there aro quite; a number of such Instances on record. When wo remember what n temptation u fortune Is nnd tho number of unscrupulous persons In the world it is n wonder that there aro not more such cases. When I was In the high school I formed an attachment forn girl nam cd Ilnzcl Mnnsflcld, She belonged to a wealthy family, whllo my parents were poor. Indeed, when I went to college I wns obliged to work my wny by teaching and other expedients. I parted with Ilnzcl Mnnsflcld when we were graduated at tho high school and did not meet her ngnih for ninny yenrs. After lcnvlng college I studied lnw nnd in time put out my shingle ns an attorney. I bad not prnctlced long be fore I received by mall n copy of a book handsomely bound nnd altogether qulto an acceptnblo gift. Aftor tenring off tho cover, which wns much soiled, I looked eagerly on the flyleaf for tho name of the donor nnd wns surprised to find tho lenf ns blnnk ns the day It enmo out Of the mnnufacturer's hands. I ran through tho pages, expecting that a card would nppear, but found none. Then 1 opened tlio book and shook it. There was nothing in It. I examined tho writing on the cover, which was In a woman's hand, but It was not familiar to me; at least I did not remember It. I was addressed as an Individual, not as a lawyer. I looked all over tho wrapper, but saw nothing to give mo any clew. Tho book, con sidering tho way It enmo to me, wns a mystery. A fow days later I concluded to read tho book, hoping that there might be something In tho text that would sug gest an explanation. It wns n book of tnivols nnd to mo very dull. I wns nbout to glvo up Its perusal when I camo to n light lead pencil mark under tho word "my." I noted tho fact and read on. On tho next pago tho word "dear" was similarly underscored. This began to look as though I was on the track or sometiiing. l now ceascti to read, but looked for another marked word. It was "old." Tho next whs "school." I was somewhat disappoint ed, for "my dear old school" meant nothing to me. But I turned tho leavc3 till I camo to tho word "mate." These five words wero n revelation. My mind at onco turned back to my bchool dnys, but I had a number of friends nmong them nnd could not set tlo on nny ono who would bo likely to send mo nny such mysterious commu nication. I read on and evolved the following sentence: "I need both n friend and n lawyer." At.thls point I was po eager to loam who was my correspondent that I tiii'io'd to the back of the book and examined It from the end to -the beginning. Here I found lettoiN. not words, underscored. The first letter marked was a "d," tho next an "1." tho next an "e," the next nn "I," the next mi "f." I know I wns noting the letters backward and kept trying by reading them In reverse order. When I enmo to tho "f" I no ticed that thus far they spelled "field." Four letters more, read also In reverse, gave mo "mans." The two syllables to gether gavo "Mansfield." Could tho communication come from my old chum Hazel Mansfield? I looked engerly for tho next letter, and, sure enough, It wus an "1." I ran over the pages rapidly, coming to "c." "z." "n." "h," In sequence. Ilnvlng discovered my correspondent, I wns now impntlent to know why sho hud need of a friend nnd n lnwyer. Turning to tho forward part of the book where I had left off, I began again reading the message. It Inform ed mo thnt tho writer wns held a pris oner In a country houso with no other near neighbors by tho executor of her father's estate. She was kept there waiting legal permission to plnco her In a retreat for feoble minded persons or to bo disposed of In somo other wny that would ennblo tho executor to ap propriate her estate. A part of this sho knew nnd a part sho surmised, She begged me to do something to extricate her from her terrible position. Her reuson for sending mo tho book wus that she was not permitted to communicate with any ono. Sho had found tho book In tho library nnd nt times when she wns not watched had underscored tho words and letters that composed the message. She was per mitted to go out riding gunrded by u woninn who wus her Jnller. She hnd conceuled the book, which she, hnd wrnpped. addressed and stamped, In her muff and whllo being driven out managed, when the wumnn wns look ing tho other wny, to drop It out of the enniage. All being explained, I went to work on tho case at once, applying to the court for n habeas corpus, nnd before anything could bo done by tho enemy I got Miss Mansfield out of her Jailer's possosslou. I unearthed so much ras cality that before long I had tho ex ecutor of tho estato tlcclng to somo for eign land, whero ho went into hiding to keep out of Jail. lie bad squandered ono-Iiulf tho estate that ho had been appointed to manage, but I saved the other half for Its lcgltlmato owner. As tho husband of tho heiress I man aged tho property so successfully that It is now what It was when her father dfed. A Happy Coincidence By LOUISE B. CUMM1NGS During tho second empire In. France two country gentlemen. M. Hecnrdler and M. Gallipeaux, met at the chateau of the former, and whllo discussing somo lino old wine Gnlllpcaux said to his friend: "Where is your son Louis?" "Traveling." "My daughter nlio Is traveling. She will bo nt home for the nutumn bnll. It will bo her entrance Into society." "My son will be at homo nbout that time. I am looking forwurd to his coming with pleasant nntlclpntlons. Ho has not beeli hore for ten years. When he wns twelve years old J put 1 1 1 in to school In Gonevn. From there he passed to the university, and since then he has been traveling. But why Jld you nsk about my son,?" "I win tell you. It would give mo great pleasure and 1 should consider myself highly honored to unite our families in the marriage of these two young persons." "Just whnt I hnve been thinking of for somo time." replied the other. "How old Is your dnughtor?" "Mnrio Is twenty." 4 "And Louis U twenty-two." It wus then and there ngreed that tho youngsters should marry. That was a time when parents In France ar ranged marriages for their children. When Louis Uecardlor returned to tho paternal chateau his father met him at the door, and the two wero locked In each other's arms. They chatted for somo time, when tho fa ther said: "Louis, It Is now time that you set tled down nt homo. I nm getting lone somo in my old ago and want you with me. I dcslro also that you should bring a wife into the houso and that I may have a grandchild In whom to bo Interested. I have arranged a match for you with tho daughter of nn old friend of mine, and It Is expected that the marrlngo shnll take irfaco very soon." Tho young mail's, face spoke plainly that this was unwelcome news to him. Ho made no reply for some time, and when he did It was qulto a backset to his father. "My dear father," ho said, "I have always obeyed you and will continue to do so save In this one thing, the choice of a wife. I do not approve of our iVncostral custom of parents choos ing mates for their children. I am a believer In love and that marriages should be made for love." "But my word has been pledged. To tell my friend that you will not marry his daughter would be an Insult." "Xot since I have never seen bor." M, Uecardler argued a long while with his son without effect. The young man had met a girl in his travels nnd hnd fallen In lovo with her. Ills father was wrapped up In him nnd would not brenk with htm, A letter wns dispatch ed to M. Gnlllpcaux announcing that tho match must bo nbandonod. Naturally-- tho latter was much Incensed that his daughter should bo refused and wrote his old friend a very curt reply. Louis Itecardler's falling in love was one of those cases whero persons of opposite sex. are drawn together nt sight. Louis had attended the opera ono evening nt Mllnn, nnd in n box di rectly above him and so near him that ho could almost touch her sat a ytfuug lady between whom and him camo nu instantaneous spark of love. Louis could not keep his eyes off her, nnd she, conscious that they wero al ways upon her, gave him an occasional glance, while a faint blush and a rest lessness of her fan showed that sho wns much nffectod. The next dny Louis mndo an attempt to find tho young lady, but was unablo to do so. The reason of this was that sho had depart ed early in tho morning with a party with whom she wns traveling. Louis had returned to France, being expect ed by his father, hoping to gain per mission to set out again to find the girl with whom he had fallen in lovo nt sight. Not long after the urrlvnl of youim Uecardlor nt homo the autumn bail camo off. Her father lemembered that his friend, M. Gulllpcaux, had told him that his daughter would be presented to the soclnl world on that occasion, and having heard that Mile. Gallipeaux was a very chnrinlng girl urged his sou to attend the ball, hoping that meeting her there ho might bo attract ed to her and the match might yet bo brought about. Louis refused to go, being satisfied with nothing but to set out ngnln to find tho girl who hnd en chanted lilni. Finally his fntlie con sented that he should depart, provided he would llrst attend the ball. Louis agreed to the condition, attend ed tho ball nnd was standing listlessly looking at tho dancers when suddenly his heart enme up Into his throat. Who should sail by him In the dance but tho girl ho had seen at tho opera at Mllnn I Louis lost no time In securing an In troduction, and when ho henrd the words "Mile. Gnlllpenux" ho paled. He hnd refused to marry tho girl with whom ho had fallon in love! When M. Uecardler was Informed of tho altuaUon ho ordered his carriage and drovo at onco to see his old friend, M. Gallipeaux. no was coldly receiv ed, but when ho oxpluined tho cause of his son's refusal and that 'Louis was wrapped up In Mario her father was soothed and consented that the mar rlngo should take plnco nt nn early date.
