BROWN BUTTONS
By MILDRED WHITE.
(Coprrlcht, lm. Western Newspaper Union)
Rlioda sal listening ns Mrs. Hamil
ton talked, nnd rebellion rirose within
her. Was It for this, the visit had
been urged upon her? That sho might
be led into a marriage with the ex
acting son of her mother's dearest
friend. John Hamilton's virtues hnd
been sung lito Rhmlu's ears as long
as she could remember: John Hamil
ton, the spoiled nnd adored of his
mother. Rlioda, In her country home
had anticipated long this sny In the
city. She hnd thought then only of
the companionship of her mother's
girlhood friend, and of tho Joyful
glimpses Into a big world, which sho
might give her. Then. "Aunt Cyn
thia," as the girl had been taught to
call her hostess spoiled it all.
"I am going to he perfectly frank,
Rhoda,"she said. "To have my friend's
daughter for my own daughter-in-law,
Is tho secret wish of my heart.
Cynthia Hamilton regarded hei
guest perplexedly.
"It cannot be possible," Mrs. Ham
ilton was asking, "that you aro al
ready promised to another, Rlioda?
But," she quickly ndded, "your moth
er would have told me of your en
gagement." "Not exactly engaged, Aunt Cyn
thia," she calmly replied, "but there Is
n man whom I intend to marry the
man who has my heart." Which will
bo true, Rhoda told her conscience,
when the time comes.
"Your mother made no reference to
a possible ndmirer," Aunt Cynthia
said sharply.
"I don't think," Rhoda replied, "that
mother knows him."
"Not," Aunt Cynthia reproached "a
clandestine affair I" Rhoda shook her
head.
"ITo doesn't live In our town," she
explained confusedly. Mrs. Hamilton
sighed In relief and smiled.
"We all have those fancies, my
dear," she snld indulgently. "When
I see this lover I will consider you
seriously. For the present let us drop
the subject. I Irivo an errand for you
to do. Would you mind going down
town? You can ride directly to the
store door. I have some buttons to
be mntched. brown buttons, for my
new suit. The tnllor must have them
tonight.
Rlioda seized upon this escape, but
when she stood In the nlslo of the
great department store n snmple but
ton In the palm of her gloved hand,
Rliodn's cheeks were still Hushed from
her (Micounter, ' and two dimples
popped out in her cheeks.
"Ithcdn Blair." she said mentally,
"that was an awful position to put
yourself into. Engaged nlmost nnd
not 11 man on your horizon."
Just then Rhoda, dimples nnd all,
bumped Into 11 man who sent the
brown button rolling down the tloor.
The young man nimbly pursuing thu
button brought It back with n bow
to It's owner. And Rhoda perceiving
him to he hatless. took tin- nice young
tnan to be n floor usher nnd asked
to he directed to the "button depart
ment." With a stare and n quick, pleas
ing smile, the young man offered to
escort her there and with a protect
ing arm against the shopping throng
led the way to rfn elevator. As a
store usher, however, he was strange
ly remiss, for ns the two Issued
through a labyrinth of ways, no but
ton depnrlment was In evidence. It
wns necessary for tho obliging young
man again to seek the elevator nnd a
search of tin doors below. Ills gaze,
as ho did so. was admiringly, though
politely bent upon Rhoda's pretty
face. And when at last the button de
partment wns found the particularly
desired button, wns not among Its
number; the nice young man promptly
offered to have It hunted out In stock,
and delivered surely, that evening. It
was with evident regret that he bowed
his fair customer through tho door
way, while Rhoda riding hack to Aunt
Cynthia's, experienced a pleasing
sense of coming adventure. The ad
venture nrrlved that evening. An ex
ceedingly nice looking young man,
ushered by the mnld Into the presence
of John Hamilton and his mother,
asked, Hushing boyishly, .to see "Miss
Blnlr." While Rhoda, entering nt
that moment, wns in time for Mrs.
Hamilton's repronchful remark. "You
did not tell me," she snld, "that the
friend of whom you spoke lived In our
city."
Impulsively, though perplexedly, the
friend' himself, saved Rhoda reply.
"I am Jack Warren of Warren &
Son's department store." he said, "per
mit me to Introduce myself."
John Hamilton arising, bowed testily
and left the room, while his mother
with an astonished murmured re
sponse quickly followed.
','1 came," the nice mnn told Rhoda
"to bring those buttons : My own de
livery. Thought, when your folks
knew who I was, L'jat they'd let me
stay awhile with you. But, my pres
ence seems unwelcome, so
"N'ot your peosenro," Rhoda hasten
ed to explain. She paused. "I guess
I had hotter tell you all about It," shr
said desperately, and sho did.
Jack Wxrren listened, his pleasing
smile broke forth.
"I'd love to play up to that 'almost'
fiance of 'yours while you are here.'
he said.
Then eagerly his eyes betd Or
girl's.
"Afterward," he added durlngl), "i
am goin; xi d my lic-t to trv tn onll1'.
