EVERYTHING JUST RIGHT By T. B. 'ANDERSON 4 (Copyright, 1930, Western Newspaper Union) If Nettn and Dorothy Blssell, sis- tern, lind remained nt home Instead of f ii t 'li I ri c tho rlfv fivir. tlicv would not have been responsible-for n sec- I ond hoirlrii from Brookvllle on the nart ' or Warren and Bert Spencer, brothers, The Blssoll and. the Spencer farms Joined and the four had grown up to gether as playmates. In later years Warren had courted Nettn and Bert had kept compnuy with Dorothy, ami It looked as though the two neighbor families were destined to be still more closely linked together. Netta was church organist and guvu music lossoim. Dorothy had graduated and had served as an extra district schoolteacher. Both were restlessly ambitious. They had heard of tho gold en opportunities lying In wait In tho city for bright, up-to-dulo girls. Netta had Kiivcd some money and meditated a course at some standard musical col lege. ' Dorothy had learned of those who bad specialized In Homo educa tional branch and had worked up to phenomcnnl salaries. "We won't stand In your way of n success In life, girls," said patient plodding John Blssell. and a little lat er Warren and Bert Spencer stood forlornly watching a departing train disappear beyond the little old rallrond station, bearing away from them Into the dark and uncertain un known tho objects of their slncerest devotion. Then there came about nat urally their ardent longing to be near those from whom they had parted. The Spencer fnmlly went through the snmo ordeal as their neighbors. "Give tho boys a chance," submitted JUchard Spencer, and Warren and Bert followed the lead of their undaunted girl neighbors, the former dreaming of fame as a Inwycr, his brother flllad with enthusiasm as nn embryo editor, author, or whatever came along In the literary line. Netta was missed at the church or gan and Dorothy had little student friends who mourned her desertion, for she hud won their love completely. Many a tlmo Richard Spencer straight ened up from grubbing with his hoe und lenned upon It, sad and dreamy looking, thinking of the pride ana" pleasure he had taken In the past In having his stnlwart, diligent elder son, Warren, In the next field, whistling cheerily while be did the work of two ordinary tollers from sheer strength and the ardor of living amid nature. It was the fond mother who grieved over Bert, the youngest. Ills farm duties were lighter. Cheerful, hopeful letters came to the respective families after the departure of these dear ones and very often the dcsolnted ones spent the evening In company, their one theme the loved children far away. The Blssell girls were living In a community house un der careful supervision. Thu Spencer boys occupied a room together nearby nnd they saw one unotlier nearly every day. In the city tho brave, struggling souls who had found disillusion where they had anticipated a sure fruition of thu Impulses of youth and ambition had ono by one sorrowed because of their disappointment. The pressures of homesickness resulted In a generul comparing of notes and a frank con fession of longing for home. Love, too, had blossomed the while, nnd centered Interest awuy from the sordid prom ises of the world. Netta acknowl edged a lack of Interest In the ml nutliie of music which took In fads and fancies of melody subservient to Jazz doggerel, love songs und ragtime. Dor othy resented the hurd, practical train ing th'nt would take her among serious, solemn students cherishing theories and fads. Warren found 'the law promised a herd nnd long apprenticeship, and Bert the road to literary fame full of twists and turns and the caprice of nn exacting public. John Blssell and Itlchard Spencer had been away for two days attending a grange convention at a neighboring county scat, it was into in the niter noon when they got off of the train on their return. In the hearts of both thoro was a vivid sense of returning to homes bereft of their brightest treasures. Each was absorbed along the line of thut suggestive thought Abruptly as they passed the little unlou church of the village, they halt ed. Swelling out upon the air was an old familiar hymn. It thrilled John Blssell, It made Ulchard Spencer look at him queoily. "John, It sounds like Ncttn's pluy lng," lie observed, and together they stole to nn open window of the struc ture nnd looked In. "It's Netta she bus come back," ut tered Blssull tremulously, "and oh I Richard, someone Is waving from our porch." "Dorothy," cried Spencer "with the old calico housedress on " "Look look, Ulchard," shouted Bis sell excitedly "over In your field pitching liny Warren I" Itlchard Spencer choked up and neur- ly fell over. "Oh I could It be true tha the welcome wanderer hud returned V ilo knew that It was so, us out through tho hroud farm gateway cumo the team, and in the driver's scut was Bert, "Out of tho way," he yelled like Bomo delighted hoy. "Got to get some tilings for ma In tU town. Ob, dad we've como baclc to stay. And every thins Is Just right." A DREAMER OF DREAMS By JESSIE E. SHERWIN (Cupyrlght, 1920, Western Newtpapff Union) Blossom time 111 (lie Valley of I hippy Days I . A dreamland garden Bpread out by nature, as If for lovers-only ! It wn wonder, as they wandered hand In hnnd ncross tlie velvety sward and the very birds seemed to warble th loveliest melodies for their enraptured cars alone, that Evan Reese and Miri am Wayne felt that the world was mnde for them alone and that life was all of love nnd happiness. "Sweetheart mine," mucin u red Kvnn, "it will not he long before we shall have our own little home In the most beautiful spot In this most beautiful paradise. We have reveled In star shine, und (lowers, and bird song, und perfumed breezes, nnd poetry, und dreaming. The practical calls now, but memory will sweeten und hallow the golden dnyB we have passed amid these lovely jtcenes." She clung to bis strong arm and leaned her fair golden bead lightly on his shoulder In u vision seraphic the rapt smile on her face, the ecstuctlc glow In her eyes revenllng the pure soul within. He was nil sincerity nnd honor, she n lovely bud, Just expanded Into the full flower of radiant girl hood. The pretty village nestled In n golden haze beyond tho end of the valley. They bad paused nt the emi nence of a gentle slope, gowned with (lowering trees und commanding a view of alternating dale and brook for miles acros the sun-gilded expanse. "I have secured an option on the site here, Just two acres," spoke 'Evan, "and the owner will hold It for mo In definitely. When I go bnck to work It will be raro happiness to prepare the plans for tho bungalow. As 1 progress I will send the first outlines to jrou. to accept or alter at your will. Two yenrs Is not long, nnd by the end of that time, with hard work and econ- ilomy, I snail nave sumcient 10 uuuu the little nest that shall echo all day with yeur merry song nnd lnughter." Dreamers of dreams, alas 1 for their sublime faith In goodness ono In the other, In the smo'olh, even materiali zation of their hopes and plans. Evan went to Chicago from the little villuge where he nnd Miriam hnd been born to become cashier and bookkeeper for distant relutlve, who made u busi ness of purchasing commercial paper on u small capital. He was Adam Muy, and he bad a customer named Rupert warren, n broker, who borrowed on a limit of ten thousand dollnrs, always on a special and reliable collateral. One dny when Evan's employer was away Wur- ren entered the office In great urgency. 'The full amount," ho said. "There are the usual securities," and so reg ular and reliable had been the dealings of Warren with the house thnt Evan simply glanced at tho securities, saw they bore the usual name, "Midland," gave a check for ten thousund dollars and entered the transaction upon his books. It was the next morning thut rumor tlew about In business circles that Rupert hud absconded, leaving nothing hut debts. Then Adum Muy made a discovery that crushed hlni. Warren had foisted on him not securities In tho Midland Construction Co., n pros perous concern, but those of the Mid land Building Co., a stock jobbing pronation whose stock was not worth the paper It was printed on. Of course ho blamed Evnn, and the latter cen sured himself for not examining docu ments more closely. The loss of the money crippled May, but honest Kvnn Reese enme to his relief. Mr. Muy," he said manfully, "the loss Is due to my carelessness. I will work for you until the amount Is paid up for my slnipk board and lodging Tho rest of my earnings will go to u fund to recoup you." It wus tho only way of honor, and Miriam, with a sigh, with ten years bnnl servitude before them, gave up all her bright drenms and urged him to the noble sacrifice. Miriam found employment In a store In the village, Evan labored nights at extra work, striving to re duce tho great debt be was obligated to pay. Those two met only once a yeur,. and then only 0110 afternoon, for the hours of work were dnlly precious to them, it was Just nt the beginning of summer two yeurs Inter, however, thut a week's vacntlon cutne for both at the same time. Ilo had grown older und more serl ous. The roses In Miriam's cheeks hud faded somewhat, but sublime fulth one In the other was its bright us In those olden days when they had roamed and dreamed, us they roumed and dreamed now. They sat on the green sward In the shade of somo bushes near to the site where the dream house bad never been built except In their fnncy. There was a strain of sadness to their mutual coming together, thoy glunced over the plans for a little home framed wlleu Joy and youth glided nil the future. ''It muy be yeurs, but we will not give up our hope." spoke Kvnn tender ly, "It will not bo yeurs," spoke nn In trading voice, uniL both stared nt 11 man bronzed, bearded, who bud step- ped Into view. "You don't remember me?" he asked "Think again. I urn Rupert Warren made good In my exile. I went to see May to pay up what I bad no righ to take, lie sent me It you. nnd I huve come to restore to you the money that will build w uo'ibO of dreams." DOCTOR OF HEARTS By BETTY M'INTYRE. (3. 1920, by McClure Newipaper Syndicate) Phyllis was a talehtcd, well-educnt- cd, handsome but unspoiled child of wealth. The male portion of Kings town openly adored her, while' the contrnry sex secretly copied her mun ners, gowns nnd her style In 'hnlr-dress- lng. She was" n born mntchmnker" nnd quarrel-pa tcher, and when any of the girls of the town were benrtbroken over some John Henry, she was sought, and although she was only twenty-two, her advice was sage. In this wny she had earned tho name that the boys bad given her, "doctor of henrts." When her friends wrote to her they always placed D. 0. II. after her name, nnd with smiling good-nnture she ac cepted their fun, and no one ever guessed that the doctor's own heart needed mending. Many of her ndmlrers proposed to her, but she refused them all, for she did not love them, and she was a firm believer In whole-hearted love or none at all. She very tactfully found some charming girl for ech of the disap pointed swains. One benutlful morning the doctor, feeling rnther lazy, took an Interesting book nnd some red-cheeked apples that vied with her own cheeks for roslncss, nnd settled herself In the couch ham mock to wait In comfort for the mall man. When he arrived she smiled ns she read the D. 0. II. placed after her nnmc on four of her letters. She smilingly opened one of them nnd rend a long letter from one of her "pa tients" who hnd found happiness. One letter bore a foreign postmark, but the usual D. 0. II. was there, and she was puzzled, for ns fnr as she knew, none of her friends were nbrond, and the address being typewritten, gave her no Information. , She slit the envelope nnd read: "Dear Phyllis At last I have found where you live. Until tonight I have been unable to find you, although I have searched for the past three years. After I returned to Camden and found you gone, I ran down every possible clew to find you, but nil In vnln. Last week I came here from London, for I knew of your fondness for Egypt, but I could find nothing here until to night, when I dropped Into the English club, nnd hero I met a chap numed Clark, who knew you. When he told mo thnt you were not married, I made up my mind to see you at once, nnd beg your forgiveness, If I can, for my foolishness. So I nm coming to you ns fust as I can, with the hope In my heart .that you still love me a little. "Yours forever, "TOM BEVERLY." The rest of the mnll was forgotten, nnd her dnnclng heart made her eyes glow with a wonderful light. Tom was coming to her after three long years, and he had searched until he had found her; the silly thing they hnd quarreled over was forgotten. For the next three days she lived In a fever of expectancy, nnd each day found her dressed In some wonderful dress, for she was anxious to look well when he enme. For a week she watched for him nt train time, but be did not come. One morning In her plain glnghnm dress she curled up In the hammock to rest nnd sleep and dream of his coming. She woke to find Tom lenn- Ing over her, nnd with a glnd cry her arm encircled his neck nnd In the kiss that followed nil the pnln of the years ,wns forgotten. Suddenly she became conscious of her plain dress, and asked him to ex cuse her until she changed It. "Why chnnge It, sweetheart? You are wonderful In that dress, and silk or satin could not Improve you any." And then, In the approved fashion, he told her Just bow wonderful she wus to him. With n happy nigh tho little doctor of hearts dropped her head on bis shoulder. A shrill whistle and the postmnn entered the ynrd with several letters, all with the D. O. II. after her name. Tom, picking up one from where she threw them Into the hnm mock, kissed the D. O. II. as he said, with his arm around her, "Doctor of henrts Is a good name for you, my dnrllng, for you suru can fix sick hearts, but after the way you have fixed mine, I'll tell the world that to 1110 D. O. II. menus delight of henven." ' Largest Dictionary.
