PEANUT
By RUTH WOLF.
(. 1920. by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)
She wns a little bit of n thing, not
moro than four feet ten In height, and
Bhe hnd been ndoptcd as the ofllee inns
cot from the ilny of her arrival. She
wns n capable worker, however, nnd
Tery soon mnde herself respected for
her "gray mnttcr" nmong the large
staff of clerks In the big olllce of
Wheeler & Co., nrchltects.
A too-fnmlllnr olllco boy hnd smil
ingly saluted her as "Bnbo" on lier sec
ond morning In the ofllee, but lier
freczlngly disdainful reply had put
nn end to that Immediately. However,
after she had been there some time, It
was discovered that she had n great
fondness for peanuts "Pennut," she
therefore became to the entire office,
nnd Peanut she remained to the end
of the chapter.
It was a rnlny, slushy morning nnd
Peanut, almost late, ninde a vain ef
fort to put her umbrella on top of her
locker to dry.
"Guess you need some help, child,"
said a cheery masculine voice behind
her, nnd Peanut startled by unexpect
ed sound, wheeled around sharply.
The old locker, at best none too steady,
lurched forward and crashed to the
floor.
With a warning cry, the mnn leaped
forward, nnd with one nrm shooting
out, sent Peanut sprawling nnd safely
out of harm's way. Not so fortunate,
her rescuer, however, for the heavy
locker, as It fell, caught him before he
could get out of the way, and sent him
to the floor, his leg pinned fast.
"Oh, plense, please He still," she
begged, "and I'll try to get yott out,"
nnd in spite of Ins pain the young
man's eyes twinkled for the locker
was like a mountain beside the girl.
"Guess you'll never move that thing,"
he said ; "but I'll be quiet, and you run
downstairs and get some one up hero
to help." And Peanut rushed away.
It proved to be nothing worse than a
wrenched ankle that resulted from the
accident It wns a very subdued Pea
nut who clicked at her typewriter keys
all that morning, nnd although the
news of the accident had sprend like
wildfire nil over the ofllee, no one as
yet had been able to learn the name
of the hero.
"It was no one I hnd ever seen
around hero before," confided Pennut
to the other girls In her section, "but
I'm going Into Mr. Wheeler's room at
noon to Inquire about him. I feel that
it's my duty."
So slic rapped timidly nt her em
ployer's office door, and In response
to a low-voiced "Come In," Pennut en
tered. She stopped short In amazement nt
the sight which met her eyes. There
sat her rescuer of the morning, com
fortably leaning back In a big ofllee
chnir, smoltlng a cigar his bandaged
foot resting on a low stool. Opposite
him sat Mr. Wheeler (regarded as a
most stern nnd unnppronchable man
by nil the ofllee force) Just as comfor
tably seated, and smoking Just as con
tentedly. Peanut gazed, from .one to
the other, her confusion growing great
er every moment, and sending a most
becoming flush Into her cheeks.
"I cr I came," she stammered.
"And I am very glnd you did" fin
ished the younger of the two men, smil
ing. "Now, dad, you can properly In
troduce me to this young lady, whom
I handled somewhat roughly this morn
ing." "Ahem, this is Miss Mnrjorle Pierce,
Ted, one of our most capable clerks.
Miss Pierce, this young man Is my son,
who thought to surprise me with a vis
It todny and succeeded admirably."
"Oh, Mr. Wheeler, I nm so sorry!"
exclaimed the girl earnestly; "it really
was all my fault, and It's too hnd thnt
your son should have to suffer for
my stupidity."
"Why, dnd," said Ted, "I gave poor
Miss Pierce such a push It nearly land
ed her In the middle of next week."
"Yes, true enough," answered his fa
ttier, with a twinkle In his usually
keen, gray eyes. "I believe I've heard
the name 'Peanut' In connection with
Miss Pierce." And Ted Wheeler's eye?
began to dance.
"Oh, Mr. Wheeler that's'Just a nick
name the girls gave me I never
dreamed that you knew about It."
"Well, Junior, I'm going downstairs
to get the machine and take you
home," said Wheeler, senior. "I'll leave
Miss Pierce here to help yoiuget ready
and I'll be back shortly." And he
left them.
"If you'll tell me where your hat and
coat are, I'll -get them for you, Mr.
Wheeler and the young mnn pointed
to n closet In the corner of the office.
MnrJorle brought them and silently
helped the Junior Wheeler Into his ul
rfor Tin moved obediently as she
directed, so that she could button It
nn ho sat In the chair.
VniiM mnkft a canltal nurse, Miss
Pierce." he commented.
"Oh, but Mr. Wheeler, please let me
do something for you while you are at
home. Can't I get you something to
help you pass the time, so you won t
feel lonely?"
"Why, yes come to think of It, 1
guess you can. I'll speak to dad when
he comes up, and ask him to lend you
to me for the next couple of days."
"Mo I Why, what can I do for you at
home I didn't mean why, what can
you nosslbly want of me?"
"Well," said the young mnn, "I have
always been very fond of peanuts ana
I foresee that I'm going to like them
better than ever."
And before the moaning In his eyes,
Mnrjorle fled to the outer olllce.
THE WINDOW LADY
By JOSEPHINE 3. BROOKS.
(. 1920. by UcCluro Newspaper Syndicate.)
It wns n room on the sld of the
house, close up to the next building. It
wns always quite dark, even In day
light. Laura Cocroft leaned her head upon
her hand.
She had little time to mako new
friends. She hnd little money with
which to enjoy herself. When she
walked In the park she'actually looked
longingly nt the kiddles riding In the
swan boats; a thing she had never
done, small ns It seemed, nnd childish
the pastime. It was always save. save.
It was growing very dusky In the lit
tle room. After a meager supper the
girl pulled down the shnde at the
window nnd begun sorting her work by
a feeble flickering gas light. It wus
eleven o'clock before she finished
tired nnd discouraged ; with eyes heavy
and hend weary.
It might have comforted her a little
had she known of the many furtive
glances her window neighbor, Al Mur
dock, had cast across the opening at
her lowered curtain. He had cnught a
view of her at work, silhouetted on the
curtain.
"Poor girl I SJhe doesn't seem to have
mnny good times. Then that old Jail
of a room must be fearfully dingy," he
reflected, turning ivny from his watch
tower. ,
The girl, all unconscious of a sym
pathy that would nave warmed her
heart, worked on.
"It's u holiday tomorrow," she
mused, relief llghtlog up a little the
pretty eyes. "There'll be no alarm
to waken me, thnts one comfort.
Guess, after breakfast and my work,
I'll take my book and lunch nnd spend
the day In the park. I'll wnteh the
kiddles and envy them."
Now It happened that Just at this
time Al Murdock was at peace with all
the world, and rt the same time filled
with sudden philanthropy from the
fact of a raise In his salary.
"I'll stroll over to the park tomorrow
and take some of the poor kiddles for a
sail In the swan boats," he declared.
Later his energetic tread souuded
sharply on the broad stone pnthway
across the Common.
"I'll be a kid just for today. Wonder
what the fellows would say to see me?
Whew! If there Isn't my Lady of the
Window. She's telling stories to
those little children. They can't be her
scholars. I'll speak to her."
Al slyly kicked a stone from the
path. The girl looked up with recogni
tion In her glance.
"They nren't your pupils, Lndy of
the Window?" questioned the young
man.
"No, oh, no; I pitied them their
longing looks toward the boats. A con
genial feeling prompted me," she
smiled.
"I sny, Unit's too bad," pitied Al.
"Lady, there Is a swan boat return
lng. Will you and your retinue favor
me by accompanying me on a snll?"
Al bowed low. his fnce one broad
smile.
"My, yes!" they all chimed
The little girl piped up:
"The lady will "ie our princess and
you'll be the p.-!n:e. Us four '11 be
fairies; then we'll play It's a truly
fairy boat."
He stowed the children on the rear
seat retaining Laura for himself.
With many "ohs" from the little ones
they circled the pond and little Islands
of sand nnd shrubs,
Al felt repnld by the warm glow at
his heart. He escorted Laura to her
very door.
"Well repeat the good time some
day. Shall we?" he questioned.
You are most kind to a lone girl.
Yes, I shall dearly love to go," shu re
plied candidly. p
It proved but the beginning of better
times for the girl. Even the drudgery
of night work was lightened by
vision of merry eyes gleaming across
her papers.
Instead of glances across the open
lng there were talks and smiles on the
Inside of Lauras room. Al even
helped her with her papers,
One night Laura's house of cards
fell her pleasant dream was over for
as she raised her curtain she saw
shadowed on the opposite window two
forms embracing each other nnd actu
ally kissing! A stylish girl at that.
She lowered the curtain and dropped
Into a chair,
She sat there a while then went sad
ly to bed.
"I've had my salary raised again,
dear Lady of the Window," confided
Al, one evening long after. They were,
such close friends now.
"I saw the dearest bungalow today.
It was Inviting a young couplo's pres
ence. Can you Imagine for whom It Is
waiting?"
"There Isn't a dark room In it. I
asked them to hold tt until tomorrow.
Shall I engage It?"
"For for you aud the oUier Lady
of Your Window?" she trembled. "I
I think It would be best rooms are
so scarce, you know, especially sunny
ones."
"There's no other Lady of the Win
dow but you there never will be,
dear," assured the young man.
"But once I saw the shadow of
of you and another girl, aud you
you" sho faltered aud stopped.
The young man burst Into a lnugh
of relief. "Why, that's my sister I
hadn't seen her since she was married
and left us.
"Shall I hold the bungalow for usl"
Laura, with shining eyes, noddod
assent.
SATISFIED WITH DOG'S MEAL
Westerner In New York Proved
Knew a Good Thing When
He Saw It.
He
A man and wlfo moved to New York
from the West a sane, conservative
! American man nnd wife, used to
money nnd. knowing the worth of It
nnd brought the family dog along,
paying $5 c.trn fare for the dog, by
the way, on the train. They went to
a large and gorgeous hotel and In the
due course of time the dog needed sus
tenance.
"Hlng for n waiter," said the hus
band, "and we'll get the dog some
scraps."
The floor waiter came and when
asked to bring some food for the dog
explained with, soma hauteur that he
was the floor waiter and not the dog
waiter, but would inform tho dog
waiter of the desires of tho dog. Tho
dog waiter arrived In course of tlmo
nnd tho predicament of the dog was
explained to him. The dog wnlter
wrote, down the order carefully nnd
depnrted. Presently he returned bear
ing n silver trny on which were dls
plnyed daintily various articles of
food somo vegetables, some meat nnd
n crncker or two.
"What's that?" asked the husband,
examining the contents of the trny
with Interest.
"The service for the dog, sir," the
wnlter replied.
"How much Is It?"
'One dollnr, sir."
The husbnnd took tho trny.
"Get tho dog a bone," ho said. "I'll
eat this. It's the best-looking meal I
have seen In the plnce, and the cheap
est." Samuel G. Blythe, In Saturday
Evening Pos,t.
KNIFE ENDED ALL SQUAWKING
Pets of Clemenceau No Longer Cre
ated Disturbance, After Undergo
ing a Slight Operation.
M. Clemonceau's love of pets, of
which much has appeared In the press
since his recent visit to London, once
Involved him In trouble with his
neighbors. Twelve years ngo, during
his first term ns premier, ho hnd n
number of pencocks nnd storks In
stalled In the gardens attached to the
ministry of the Interior. There nre no
trees In these gardens, only lawn and
flower beds, which In M. Clemenceau's
opinion lack animation hence the
peacocks. Hut other people living In
tho Plnce Beaiivun complained thnt
these birds were too animated, their
cries being so persistent ns to render
sleep Impossible.
Things reached such n pass that the
prefect of police was asked to Inflict
his official superior for disturbing the
peace of his neighbors, who were all
the moro Indignant because M. Cle
menceau went home every night to
sleep nt his tint In the Hue Franklin,
far out of the range of the pencocks'
cries. However n scandal Wns averted
by the premier allowing a slight oper
ation to ho performed on the vocnl
chords of his pets, which, without oth
erwise Injuring them, rendered them
Incapable of squawking
And Still Eggs Are Hlghl
The hens need a walking delegate.
Grinding the benks of the poor unpro
tected fowls .seems to be the modern
poulterer's long suit. Witness tho
modern working day of an unhnppy
hen on an up-to-date chicken fnnn,
where as many as is.oou eggs are
hatched at one time.
Electric light has done It. The
lights burn steadily until 10 p. m. At
4 n. m. they are turned on grndunlly
until their full glare wakes the hens,
The poultry then sit up nnd rub their
eyes and think. "How short the
nights are getting 1 Yet It's certainly
daylight. Well Just one darned day
after another 1" Nights nre short. The
touching Innocence of the hen victim
izes It to the extent of getting only six
hours' sleep n night. Eight-hour day?
Why, the chicken works as long ns
the farmer! The Nation's Business.
Stopped Anyway.
Willie motoring with four girls my
clutch got out of order and It was nee
essary for the girls to get out and push
In order to get the car In motion. On
the way back It was nrranged thnt
when we got to the homo of the girl
where they were all staying they
Vould Jump off while the car wns mov
lag slowly, thus to prevent my stop
ping nnd being stalled again. Imagine
my horror when they nil Jumped off
backwards and falling over In a bunch
rolled Into the ditch. I surely hnd
quite a time explnlnlng my seemingly
ungentlemnnly act to the girls' par
ents, who had witnessed the Incident
from the porch. Exchange.
