KffW "OLD ORDER CHANGETH" MILLY'S TANTRUM By J. S. BROOKS (Copyrltfht, 1915, by Hie McClure New papor Syndicate.) Sho stood there before hlin like an avenging nngol. She Ignored tlio ad miration gleaming from his honest ' gray eyes. Then cntchlng sight of his good natured Millie, she snapped: "I I Just huto people that never get angry Just smile, smile." That remark deepened the smile ou Nell Humson'f. cheery face. "lint Mllly, If you knew how oxus perntlngly pretty you look In one of your, h'm 1 tantrums. If you keep on" "Tuntrumsl It's hones! lo goodness disgust and Indifference to any llattory you give me." "As 1 was saying," resumed the Im perturbable youth, "If you don't stop looking so aggruvatlugly charming, why, I shall he compelled to tukc you In my arms." "That's Just what I'm trying to make clear to you. You have done that for tho Inst time I Here, there's no use to prolong the scene." Mllly stepped nearer, and snatching the ring from her linger, she crushed It down Into his hand. Her companion's eyes clouded u lit tle us he answered : "I suy, Mllly, aren't you currying your little farce too far I It's only u trivial thing and you know It. "Furce, Indeed 1 Nell IJurnson. There's another thing. You needn't or der those flowers for mu ; I'll telephone myself." Then the fellow "that never got mad" said hastily: "See hero, young lady, the next time I order any flowers for you, you'll weur them. And when you want Unit rlnt you'll ask for It Good-by." And Nell wai off. lie didn't see tho girl's face pale, ho was too angry to catch sight of her outstretched arms. Why Mllly Clayton should drop Into n chair and burst Into tears when sho had accomplished the thing she de sired, was a mystery. Half an hour litter Mllly culled up the florist and made him promise an early delivery. Shu must have them early. A picture the girl made In her shim mering party dress of pale green. It et off tho healthy pink In her face, and her wavy brown hair, and her brown eyes, still omitting detlanco that but gave n spurkle to tho porttult. She gave u pat to tho silky folds of her dress, then looked at the clock. "Eight o'clock, and no flowers have cornel And I've patronized that florist for so long n time. I'll Just leave him," fdio pouted. Sho looked down at her girdle whero the flowers ought to bo resting. Then her glance traveled to her left hand. "How queer it seems with n no" i ring. But a girl cun't weur every thing," she argued Inwardly. "Oh, it seems so so lonesome my ring and him gone." She looked In her mirror and began to study the radiant reflection In it. "Porhups I was too quick, and child ish per-haps I was," she drawled. "If I'm old enough to be a society woman, I'm old enough to have a little patience with Noll. He's such a boyl Besides, I do miss my ring and him." A loud peal ut tho doorbell startled her. "There's tho flowers. I'll go myself." She trlppojl down the stairs, and turned to open tho door, and tliero toood Nell witli a box of flowers. The girl's face lighted unconsciously. Tho young man's heart heat faster. "Why y, Nell Rurnson, didn't I tell you not to engage " Nell threw out his hand. "When n young lady, one's own fiancee," Mllly's head lifted defiantly "orders mo on tho telephone to bring her flowers early, I obey." Ho ended with low bow. "But I telephoned to tho florist," ex plained Mllly, "You thought you did, dear girl i but your numbers got mixed. So bore I urn ready to escort you to tho party," and the shameless fellow calmly led tho way to the living room. Mllly wont over to tho window, and, Avlth her emollons In a tumult, stood looking down tho street. Her companion produced from hltf pocket a little figure of a Cupid, which ho placed on top of the telephone cov ering, The girl with troubled eyes still gazed streetwurd. Nell next took tho ring and hung It on tho tip of Cupid's urrow. Then ho nllod: "Coino Mllly, look at your lovely flowers. Tho girl turned slowly, cuught sight of tho ring sparkling its wel come, and with a llttlo quivering sigh sho cried out: "Oh, my dear, darling ring. I'vo missed It sol" And sho eagerly .snatched It from Its place. Then sho looked at Nell, who tried his utmost to conceal the mischievous twinkle In Tils eyes. But Mllly saw It and challenged: "Why don't you say what a woman would? that "If you wanted flowers from mo you'll wear them; and when you want this ring you'll ask (or it." I do usk you for your ring, Noll, and I do want tho flowers you bring. I fouud out how trivial I'd been us soon ns you left me, Nell; I was so lonely 1" Noll stood patting the toluphone. "Good old telophonel You played .successful part ob Cupid that time," he qxulteu. British Miner No Longer the Grimy Individual He Has Been So ( Frequently Pictured, 1 A new type of minor Is being evolved at Atherton, Lancashire, ' through tho growing popularity of tho baths at Messrs. Fletcher, Burrows and company's collieries. At first only 10 per cent of tho men used them; now tho figure Is CO per cent. The miner now goes to work in tweods and brown boots Instend of his oldest clothes nnd clogs. Ho no longer be smirches tho seats of tramways and railway carriages with tho grime of his calling. Nor does he drive his wlfo to despair with tho amount of work ho brings into the house each day. Ho goes homo spruce nnd well groomed, with no signs of the weariness so characteristic of the men "coming up," "All tho young men use the baths," said the keepor of the bathhouse. "Some of the older men don't." "They are learning sonse," volun teered nn old miner. "And I wonder tho women didn't teach it to some of them n bit sooner. "Convenience I" His eyes twinkled. "Why, man, If I wanted to Juzz I could bring my dress clothes here and bo roady for tho bail twenty minutes after I got out of the cage. No, I'm not going to stnrt Jazzing not at my time of life, But I might be going to a dlroctors' banquet one of these days. You novor know In these times." Fif teen minutes suffice for a miner's hath. Men In a hurry take n little loss, dan dles n little more. They And their own soap nnd towels. London Times MAN WHO D0ESN!T GROW UP Just What Is Wrong With Individual i Who Falls to "Keep Up With I the Procession." i Insufficient occupation and tho con sciousness of not being of much use nearly always explain the man who does not grow up. There may have been a period In his life when he was an ndmlred ornament of society, when his cleverness was applauded, when his violent assertions and rash criti cisms nnd absurd resentments wore listened to ns the outpourings of an Interesting and awakening mind nnd were valued perhaps for some facility In utterance; but tho mind lins not mn tured, perhaps because It never was forced to grapple with anything vital; nnd the facility In utterance Mint wns a charm In youth has dwindled with yeurs to peevish fluency in objection, censure and condeinnutlon. The man who at twenty-five Is still n dabbler, with a faculty for raising a laugh by , his trenchant disparagements of the achievements of grown men, Is likely at sixty to bo complaining of tho cook ing ami the weather, the high prices I and the policy of Mie administration or living only for the purpose of ex pressing his discontent with tho unl- i verse. j A man jiecds time In which to grow up, but If ho does not fertilize time with work he will lie only the weed of a man. Youth's Companion. Quack Remedies. "Bolshevism can't make this poor world of ours a heaven," said Mayor Cornell Sehrolber of Toledo.- O. "Bol shevism Is a quack remedy, nnd the bolshevik remind me of Blanc. "To Blanc, who had a cure for every thing, Noro remarked that his over worked brother couldn't be Induced to tnke a holiday. "IIo's terribly run down," said Noro, 'but ho won't lay oft' says he'd bo lost without his profession.' "'Humph,' said Blanc. 'What Is your brother's profession, may I ask?' "'Chiropodist,' said Noro. "'Then,' said Blanc, 'the thing Is easy.

Aunt Jane leaned over nn open chest In the garret. "What's this?" she queried, hauling out some white material. Heckle, her niece, drew her brows to gether. "That's the bureau scarf I started lost winter. You didn't like the pat torn, so I dropped It." "H'm," said Aunt Jane. "What's this?" She pulled out something guy with colors. "Oh, that's the tablo runner. I got bo sick of It I novor finished the thing." "H'm. And this?" Another article was brought to light. "Goodness me. I started thnt shirt waist over a year ago. I'd forgotten all about It." "Since you were old enough to re member," commenced Aunt June, "I hnve tried to Impress on you the value of finishing what you comment." "Do what you set out to do. This applies to greater things than bu reuu scarfs and shirtwaists. If you know n thing is right, go ahead with it." "But, auntie," interrupted Beckle, this time successfully. "How am I to know thnt I can trust my own Judg ment?" "Your conscience will toll you." Heckle, sitting humped over the toy of n trunk, pondered deeply. "Then," she snld finally, "If I start to do something that I nin sure Is right, I should not allow even you even you, auntie to swerve mo from my purpose?" "Exactly," returned her aunt, with a pleased nod. "Let's go down now. I want to tnke n imp. The nnp lengthened Into a regular snooze. Aunt Jane was a sound sleep er. She was aroused finally bj knock ing on tho door. "It's hnlf-pnst four," called Ruckle. Aunt Jnne arose hurriedly. Her sim ple toilet did not take many minutes. Giving n final hurried dab at linr tight ly twisted pug of gray hair, sh- moved toward the door. To her nstonlsh nient, It wns locked. She rattled the knoli vigorously. "Beckle," sho called. "I'm so sorry," spoke a sniiill voice close to the keyhole, "but I'm doing whnt you told mo to do." "Unlock tills door," demanded Aunt Jane sternly. "I can't." "What do you moan?" "Not until you" promise nie some thing," said Beckle meekly. "My henrt tells mo I am right. This Is the only way. I've begged nnd begged and prayed ; but you have always said no." Aunt Jane's hands sank limply to her sides. Beckle had wittingly made her a prisoner. "Beckle Stowell, let me out this in stant. "I will," came tho pleading voice, "If you'll sny that I may mnrry Dwight." "Never," Bho rnged. "Does that that whlppersnapper know you have done this?" "No," In bronthless haste. "I Just asked him to como to supper tonight. I told him I had n real nice surprise for him." "A real nice surprise," mimicked Aunt .Tnno; then, after a slight pause; "He will get It." "Oh, auntie." Beckle's volco wns full of tears "then you can't come out, It's after five now. I've got to go downstairs." Aunt Jane leaned weakly against the door, her thoughts In such turmoil thnt she was momentarily stricken dumb. The minister due at six. The tablo not set. The biscuits . In an outburst of despairing rngo, sho boat on the door with lior clenched lists. "Heckle 1" she shrieked. "Bccklo !" No reply. From tho distant down stairs came llttlo clattering sounds ns of dishes being moved. "It's twenty minutes of six, Aunt Jane." "My biscuits 1" wnlled Aunt Jane, "You wicked girl. I shall novor forgtvo you as long ns I live." These bitter words evoked n little sob from the free side of tho door, A terrifying Idea flashed Into Aunt Jane's mind. Did the girl mean sho might run away? All her wrath was swept away suddenly In a flood tide of love. Sho could never think of Beckle other than n child. That was why sho would never listen to her talk of marrying. "It's ten minutes of six," pleaded Beckle. "Oh I heard the gute click." There was n momentary quaver In her volco. "Aunt Jane Dwight Is so dear." Her volco sank to a breath. The Janglo of the doorbell rang through the house. But to Aunt Jane's henrt, Beckle's whispered words sound ed louder than did tho bell to her ears. "Beckle," she questioned, "are you sure you're right?" "Yes.' came the answer with quick Intake of breath. "Then you shall have hlni, dear." Tho key rattled in the look. Tho door swung open. Aunt Juno nnd Beckle stooM face to face. At that mo meat the door-bell lungled most Impe riously. "My biscuits," gulped Aunt Jane Heckle's face was Blowing with sweet Joy. "Dou't you worry nbou those biscuits," she laughed. "Do you imagine I didn't want my oiikheoiucu suppor to ho a success. Just go out In tho kltchun nnd smoll 'cm." NEBRASKA iiiiiiiiiiiiiiicifiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiftiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiriiiifiiiiiiiiiiiitiiitiiiiiiifijiimiiin is our state. Its present constitution was written in 1875, but during the forty-four years that have elapsed the state has developed to a degree that demands a new and revised constitution. i i All statutes, all laws are based upon the constitution. Hence the necessity of having a broad document. That will be possible only if broad men sit in the convention; men who are actuated by patriotic intelligence rather than class prejudice. Farmers and bankers, doctors and lawyers, preachers and teachers, carpenters and merchants, newspapermen and capi talists intelligent men from every walk of life should be represented in the convention. Out from the hate, the strife and the strain of the war period a NEW NEBRASKA is emerging. If you want to have a part in this forward campaign fill out the attached coupon.
