r 1 Her Engage ment Ring By MYRTLE LEE (Copyright, lilt, by lh' Western Nw paper Union.) She had the daintiest, most shapely ( hand over soon, and Karle Warren ; recognized It and (lashed an ndmlrlng i glanco at the same ns Neva Hurdctte sat drawing pictures for her little I nroiucr ami on a rustic tame in me garden pagoda. There hail been a lively, merry lawn party, and await- j Ing tea there wns a breaking up Into various groups. Unostentatiously I and from choice Karle had kept nonr to Miss Hurdctte and her closofrlonds, Alice and Muriel Dodge, and their es corts. Neva had been his partner at ' times and It had naturally followed thnt thoy had remained together. Little Ned had, however, discovered somebody's sketch hook, had extracted some loose blank sheets and was In sistent that Aunt Neva should am se him. She portrayed his favorite en gine and train of cars, n horse, an an tomohllo nnd an airplane. Karle In dicated an Interest In this pictorial display, hut Miss Burdolto told Ned to hold his collection safe and tight, objecting to Its presentment on ac count of alleged crudeness. ' "Just one more sheet," finally an nounced Ned. "Oh. aunty I won't you let me draw something for you?" "Certainly, dear," assented Neva. Ned spread the sheet on the tabic. "Now," he said, "I want fo show you something wo do In school, You Just spread your hand down tight over the paper. That's It, Now don't you move It," und with pride and ac curacy Ned proceeded to trace the skeleton outlines of lingers nnd hand clear to the wrist. Then with satisfac tion he held It up to her view. "Isn't that line?" he challenged, ind Neva smiled her approval, and Just then some unu called to her from a group a little distance away, and she flitted with n conscious (lush ns her glance- mot that of Karle, betokening Interest manifestly In all her move ments. "You can hnve tills. Mr. Warren, because you're sueli a good friend to Aunt Nova," observed Httlo Ned gen- 'erously, extending the pencilled sheet. Then he run nway after n kitten cross ing tho path! and ICarle casually scanned the very line outline of the delicate hnnd of the peerless creatino of whom hu was Indeed the good friend,' and secretly bop"d to make some day a dearer one. Id!y ho took out his pencil and began uumiUng the breaks Ned had made In the out lines. Thu pencil point ernsged the third finger of the left hnnd nnd rest- ed there. In a whimsical frame of mind Karle began to (race a circlet about the base of that certain linger, lie smiled to himself as he pleasantly recalled that Miss Hurdotte wore no Jewelry, predicting hopefully iltatsho was heart free. He gemmed the ring with n very fnlr diamond and started suddenly as a voice spoke directly at his car, and there was mlchlof-eyed Alice Dodge leaning pnst his shoulder, "Drawing n ring on Nova's linger 1" fluttered this very clover young wom an. "Why, and you hnvo given her an engagoment ring, tool" "She deserves one," observed Karle quickly, ' "nobler and holder 1 Oh, I shall tell her!" "Walt! wait!" dissuaded Karle, but tho winsome sprite flashed away with a tantalizing Inugh. MIssAlIco did nothing of the kind. She wns an observant creature and . practiced as to match-making. It had boon no task whatever for her to dls- cover that Neva and Karle were In love with each other, but that her girl friend was shy and retiring and the l,ovor seeking encouragement. "i snail nurry tilings ulong," ve hemently declared Alice, and a day or two later had an opportunity for pine lug a plan she had formed In opera Ion. Nova had arranged to give a party to which all of her friends, In eluding Karle, had been Invited. Upon the day preceding It Allco said to her "Now, Nuvu, dear, you want to shin your brightest on this occasion. I urn gong to help you dress for tho event and here this will emphasize your magnificence," and she pressed a ring upon Nova's hand. ' "Oh, no!" demurred Nova Instantly "Why, you have placed It on the en Biigeincnt linger 1" "And aren't you longing like every other live girl wo know to have one there to stay?" and Nova blushed her prettiest. Roth of them met Karle tho next day as they passed down tho street. As ho greeted tliom ho no ticed tho brilliant on Neva's linger. The purty was nn cnjoynble occasion to all save the hostess, for Karlo did not appear, nor did ho coma near the house for several days later. , A week after tho party ho mot Nova on the street. It had been a wretched seven days for him. "If you will stop for n moment at tho Dodge home' while I return to Alice this ring she loaned to me to . wear at the party 1 will bo very glad to accompany you," said Neva. , The sky bud been cloudy. Just then the sun came out. Kurle's face had been grim and anxious. Of a sudden It slowed with a rapturous Joy. "A ring from mynelf shall encircle that fair linger before any one eli . gels ahead of mo I" ho fervently re solved, and when those two returned from tho stroll along tho lake mutual delight wolled up In their happy lieurts.

TWO TRAVELERS CAME BACK According to Army Captain, Mules Re- turned From That Dim and Undiscovered Shore. The regimental morning report is n fearsome document. On it appear all the changes in status of men and ani mals for each preceding -I hours. It inppened In an Ohio regiment onco that two mules fell 111 one night. Tho ctcrlnnrliiii gave his verdict of hope- ess, and the cnptnJn of the supply nnipitiiy accordingly made the proper entry on the morning report : "Two mules, from duty to dead." But under the euro of the grizzled old stable sergeant the mules recov- red and next morning the captain found them "alive and kicking. Now, entries made on the morning report can never bo erased, which mnde the situation embarrassing lor the cap tain. However, he was n man of re source, and the next day's report car rled the startling entry: "two muies, from dead to .duty." Shrub May Prove Valuable. Two vears before the war, as the storv Is told, two Gorman chemists applied for permission to experiment with the plan! life on a great semi-nrid liitich' in central Mexico. Their re quest .was granted, 'with the under standing that they furnish a complete report of their findings, lho two chemists worked feverishly, and chiefly on u squat, odorous shrub called "go- hornndoni," long reputed" to possess medicinal properties. Suddenly they disappeared; what they had discover ed was never known. Now, after ex periments with this same desert shrub which they have found In drier parts of New Mpxlco, chemists of the United States department of agricul ture believe that they havu discovered another alkaloid to add to the list which already Includes morphine, quinine and cocaine. Its chemical and pharmaceutical properties are now un der Investigation. Popular Mechanics Mngtrlne. Trapper's Tomb a Log Cabin. A humble log cabin which stands In n trackless forest near Lake Atha basca, in western Canada, wns once the home ot a fur trapper, Its builder. Now It Is a tomb, sheltering tho frozen body of Its former occupant, who died there, alone and unaided, nearly two years ugo. To Investigate the cause of tho trapper's death, a fearless mem her of tho royal northwest mounted police Journeyed to the desolate scene In midwinter, braving the terrors of tho wilderness for months before reaching his objective, situated miles from railroads and civilization. The corpse was in a perfect state of pros ervatlon, due to the eod, dry air, and was not moved from tho hunk on which the trapper passed uwny. Pop ulur Mechanics Magnalne. Last Resort. An eminent engineer said In our hearing yesterday that In Italy tho workers are giving two hours of their time as a free gift to the state.

"Good-by till next year, llttlo.Dorlsl" hailed Sidney Throop from the old- fashioned carryall, conveying himself nnd three fellow vacationers' from camp to the little railroad depot. He waved his hand In 'kindly fare well nt the forlorn Hguro of a girl of slxteon, Doris Loe, who stood nt the rustic state of her uncle's home. She smiled bravely, then turned bur bend away, and Paul Fnber, at the -side of Throop, noticing a fluttering handker chief, remarked : "I declare! That little sprite la sorry to have you leave she's cry ing" "I am sorry mysfilf," replied Sidney gravely, "It bus been a plensuro to know such nn unspoiled child of na ture." "Sho hasn't been the snme since yes terday seems to havo avoided the crowd for some reason or other." "I can tell you why," piped In nn other. "She looked positively awed when Fabcr's sister stopped at the camp In her automobile. I suppose the poor little wild flower was stunned nt the magnificence of the acknowledged belle ot tho season." So tho episode passed, but Sidney Throop sat silent and thoughtful. Their camp bad been located In close prox imity to the farm owned by the uncle of Doris, and It had been her task to bring fresh milk and cream morning and evening to the temporary sojourn ers. An artless, Innocent child, she had the good fortune to deal with reul gentlemen, und as the days ran on grew to regard them as true friends. "If I am to do the extra chores of carrying milk and eggs and chickens to tho picnickers," said Doris to her uncle the next day, you must allow me ii little pin money." "Why not?" Interrogated Mr. Lee good nnturediy. "Hut I hope seeing these gay people from the city hasn't put a lot of vanity Into that sensible little head of yours." Kvor since tho dny she had mot the fushlonnblo Miss Anlce Fnber there had becomo a model established In the mind of Doris as to what the real lady of society should look like. "I suppose Mr, Thorpe made some wldo comparisons between that sllk-and-Ince beauty and humble little me In calico," mused Doris, and naturally n trifle bitterly, and then a chnnge came over her. She nurtured a species of reserve und every penny of pin money sho acquired she put carefully away. Gradually her wardrobe began to Include little articles of feminine ndornmont dear to the girlish heart. A year had rolled around and Mr. Lee Informed Doris that "the crowd of young follows," as he termed It, had advised him that they would take the old camp cottage for a month. Doris was in u bewildering state of animation. For n full year she had dreamed, planned nnd saved. It almost took away tho breath of the poor va cationers when there burst upon tholr vision the afternoon of their arrival a new nnd glorified Doris. She wore u silky, scaly dress skirt, qulto "vntnplMi," having a certain trail ing nrbutus oftect. It fitted like the fuzz of a clingstone pencil. Her breath came quick, her eyos glowed like dia monds, hut as the four young men greeted her friendly enough, but vague ly, Doris shivered. Somehow she traced not only surprise lu their faces, hut n certain reproachful, pitying sen timent. The unusual gravity of Thorpe crushed her. Tho young face clouded when she had ascertained what sup plies they would require dally from tho farmhouse. Doris hastened from the camp, reached a covert, and threw herself on the ground In n wild pnr oxysm of vexation nnd disappoint ment. "What Is the trouble, little friend?" spoke Sidney, who lind followed her, and she came to her feet angry nnd defiant. She darted one look at him nnd lied precipitately. To both a cor rect conception had come. Sidney nt once comprehended that tho foolish lit tle maid had modeled herself after Miss Fnber to appear modern and Im pressive, nnd she renllzed that she must appear grotesque and out of her element, nnd her vanity was wounded. Like some penitent sho nppeared nt tho camp In propria personao the fol lowing morning, her own modest nat ural self. She was reserved nnd looked pained and humbled. Sidney accompanied her as she started home. "Dear little friend," he spoke almost tenderly, "It seems good to see the bright fairy we all ot ,us love once again ns nature Intended hor." "And I did It ell for you I" sobbed Doris. "Miss Faber " "Miss Fabor, confidentially, has wrinkles to conceal, and none of your lovely roses on her cheeks," observed Sldnoy. "Hut 1 am only n calico girl, and I thought that If I was drosuod like Miss Fabor" "Mado up, you mean," Interrupted Sidney. "You don't need that." He could scarcely resist the Impulse to take her hi his arms In till her nrtloss graco and beauty. "Doris, deur," he snld seriously, "there Is one mnn who always wishes to find you ns you are n sweet child of nature ono who hopes some day to have you ns nil his own myself." And sh- read truth nnd adoration In his earnest, longing eyes, aud was content. ED. KIERIG, Auctioneer General Farm Saks n Specialty. References and Dates nt First Na tional Hank, North I'lattc, Neb.
