WHERE'S EMELINE?
By AGNES G. BROGAN.
(CoiiyMittit, 11)20. Western Newapuiier I mm.
The girl looked about the old-fash-Jonod
room with the French windows
ho ImkI udinlred ns a rhllil, opening
-out on wide verandas. Then she went
o tin; lano and sorted over the inn
sSlc. The .solids of a by-gone day,
which she had expected to find, had
(given way surprisingly to new and rol
licking ballads. So Aunt Emollne nlso
lind taeniae modernized In her lute
lor music. Snllle tossed her lint on
n chair :ind placed her traveling bag
beneath it, and begun to play the one
sentimental piece nlio could Mud. It
was something about "Oh I I'm lonely,"
nnd "Oh, I'm blue." and carried a
touching appeal. Hut as Snllle for
the second time reached the chorus
nnd was walling softly, "Oh I I'm so
lone-ly," a masculine voice nearby em
phatlcally remarked :
"So am I."
And ns Sallle, undecided whether to
stop or to proceed, uniintlelng with her
song, finished "Oh! I'm blu-eV' the
young man again exclaimed:
"Thnt'8 me, too. I've been sitting
out there," he went on, as she turned
on the stool, "wanting to curse every
thing In this dull tovvn from the baud
stand to the pump, when your musical
voice expressed my feelings for me."
".My singing." Snlllo demurely re
plied, "litis never before been likened
to cursing. Hut If It helped to relieve
.you Will you tell me," she broke
off abruptly, "where my Aunt Kmc
llne Is?"
"I'm afraid." the young man sadly
nnswered, "that I cannot oblige. I
wish that I might know your Aunt
Hmellne."
"Hut If you don't know her," per
sisted the girl, "then why are you
lierer
"Pardon 'me," the young man-sam,
"1 have been wondering that very
thing about you."
, .Sallle turned from til m coldly.
"I came to visit my Aunt Kinollno,"
alio replied, "but she seems not to be
at home, while you ?"
"I am very much at homo," the man
jdcnsnntly Interrupted.
Sallle stooped to pick up her bag.
She would go In search of Aunt Kme
llne. "Who nro you?" the girl asked.
"I am James Oliver Lodge," be nn
swered, "and I hope the name duly Im
(presse you. Some people call me
Mini.' "
"Tell you what," he suggested Im
pulsively, "I'll get out the Car and we
-will go nnd look for Aunt Kmellne to
rgether. We'll try the shopping dls
1rkl llrst Just one short block.
3Irlng your valise," he advised.
"Certainly not," Sallle nnswered
promptly.
'I am going to stay right on In this
liouse."
ViT'ii i i'iV i .
"Nothing wo,.ld give .no greater.
ensure," Jim snld cheerfully.
kju are luuuyi nuiiie excimmeu.
"Why should you be so pleased about
ur - I
"It Is rather soon ; I fear to tell
.- ..I c i . 1 1 . i . . i i
you," he answered with a menu
lanco, and tho girl sighed In exasper
ation. Sallle Ignored this levity. She felt
4hnt she had Joked enough.
Under pretense of reading, she took
tiook from the table, and the young
imin obediently passed out through a
Vronch window to the veranda. On
tho tly-lcaf of the hook, Sallle rend on
Inscription, "To Jiiiuoh Oliver Lodge,
from Dnd."
The girl's pretty brows wrinkled In
perplexity. This young man whom she
hud dismissed professed no kuowl
edge of Aunt Kmellne, yet here upon
"her" tublo was "his" hook from dad.
"Come here," she called peremptor
ily, and the young man came.
"You don't know Aunt Kmellne," she
nccuFod, "yet hero Is your book, upon
licr table."
"It Is not her fable," James Lodge
retorted; It's mine my tnblc, my
house, my everything."
"Your home," Sallle murmured, "nnd
you lot mo walk In and play your
jilnno, and "
"I didn't let you," Jim denied. "You
came In yourself. When I heard the
piano, I followed from tho garden.
When you asked for your Aunt Kme
llne, and I offered to take you out and
try to locate her, you drove me," ho
ended tragically, "from my home."
"I arrived at tho station this after
noon, and asked to bo taken to the
Orton place," Sallle carefully ex
plained, "and tho town driver brought
me here, nnd left mo at tho door. I
remember tho house from childhood
visits. When no ono answered to my
irlng, 1 came In to wait for my aunt,
df this Is your homo, then whore's
.Aunt Kmellno?"
"At her bungalow, no doubt." the
young man answered briskly. "1 will
take you there. If you bail mentioned
the numo Orton, I should have known
tit once. Had has bought the old Or
ton homestead but If wo live hew for
ages It will always be 'Orton plnco' to
the natives."
As he stood, Salllo's bag In his hand,
;iames Oliver Lodge looked down Into
.her faco with laughing eyes.
"You oxprossod a determination not
long since," he reminded her, "to stay
right on In this house. I told you
then that nothing would give mo
groator pleasure. However, wo will
take that subject up Inter. Praise bo!
I happen to ho a favorite with Miss
Orlqn."
And Salllo, mull!ns at his daring,
blushed us she Mill .--I.
jj THE LESSER EVIL i
ii - I!! t
By MILDRED WHITE. ;:;
The girl seated on the top step of I
tin- porch looked down Into the trou- I
bled lace of a young man Jut below.
'T.nrnie." she asked Impulsively,
"what's all this I hear about your at
tachment for a certain l.ucla Holmes?"
Harnett Willis turned sharply.
"Who has been talking to you about
tliatV" he said. "I never saw such a
town. A visitor can't be in It twenty
four hours without learning the se
crets of one's heart."
"So It is a heart secret?" the girl
laughed. "Well, tin to my Informant,
she Is no other than your mother's old
helper. Hannah, It seems, considered
It her duty to 'warn mo.'
Haruie muttered an exclamation.
"I am being frank with you, friend,"
the girl snld airily, "In order Hint 1
may In turn get at the truth."
"Well you've got at It," the man
succinctly replied.
"l.ucla Holmes has always been
the only girl for me. A fellow doesn't
speak of those things to every one, j
but yon and I. Patricia, have gotten to
he good chums In a few days. When
mother told mo that the daughter of
her old friend was coming to visit us,
I'll confess that I did not look forward
to the event with enthusiasm. All that
tins changed.
"Wo understand each other like
well, like two fellows. Heretofore
mother's women guests have been the
bane of my existence, forced to pilot
them about here and there when I'd
rather be "
"Piloting Lucia," the girl inter
rupted. Harnle laughed.
"Exactly," ne said. ''You see moth
er has a stubborn dislike to Lucia,
which Is most unjust.
"I suppose," Pntrlcln remarked spec
ulatively, "that I'm tho latest attrac
tive renmle on trial. I wish you had
told me this before. Harnle. I did
think that your mother was very gra
cious In Insisting upon us calling each
other by our first names. And" tho
girl's laugh broke forth. "It Is a situ
ation. There's my own mother pnek
Ing me off here with tho same object
In view. There happens to be a dis
approved young man by the name of
Hill back home who has an attach
ment for jne. 1 have shown no evi
dence of being displeased, so I nlso
am switched off to friend Harnle."
Tho two sat staring Into ench oth
er's eyes.
"Whnt's the matter with Hill?"
Harnle asked at last abruptly.
"Absolutely nothing," the girl em
phatically replied.
"What appears to be your Lucia's
glaring fault?"
".Mother says," Harnle nnswered -Im
patiently, "that Ltlela Is no house-
keeper. Lucia, It seems, also Is too
e, ,.
. . '
he broke off,
It was on the following evening
thnt Mrs. Willis, discussing the Inter
esting subject of their son, snld to
Harnle's father.
"Ilo has been with Patricia every
moment of the day. Scnrcoly could
he spare 'the girl long enough to let
her change her frocks."
"Tho scheme then," thnt man re
simndod, "Is working promisingly, and
tho fair Lucia neglected."
"Lucia was hero this afternoon,"
tho mother ndmltted. "Harnle and
Patricia drove her over. Hut she did
seem out of it, beside our sprightly
visitor."
"'Sprightly' hardly expresses Miss
Patricia's vivacity," tho elder WIUIb
drily replied. "She described herself
to mo this morning ns 'a snappy
skirt.'
"Mn'ntn," asked Ilnunah entering
tho room nt this moment, "am I sup
posed to go upstairs after my kitchen
work Is done to do up that strange
drl's room?"
"I will go up directly," Mrs. Willis
said, but Harnle's car came tearing up
, to the door nt this moment nnd,
whistling an accompaniment to Har
' nle's hummed air, the guest burst Into
the family living room.
"Wo'vo had the greatest time evert"
she announced. "Also we have called
upon tho perfect Lucia. Does that girl
over do or say anything wrong?"
Mrs. Willis bridled.
"Lucia Is merely un ordlnnry self
respecting girl," she said.
"Come on. Pnt," ordered Harney's
peremptory voice, and tho two passed
from the room.
"You don't think," tho mother asked
the father pleadingly, "that Harnle
really can enre for that dreadful
girl. I limy ns well admit It, she Is
dreadful 1 And I'd rather, oh, n hun
dred, times, hnto him oven marry
Lucia."
In n shadowy corner ot tho porch
tho "dreadful girl" gavo a'trlumpbnut
sigh.
"It has been nn awful ordeal, Har
rile frlond," sho said, "and I'm not
suro that I shall ever get away from
that slang, while my conscience con
tlnually reproves me for tho reflection
on my mother's training. Hut wo have
won, Hnrnlo. I saw It In your moth
er's face. She Is willing to submit to
the 'los?p evil,' You may have your
Lucia"
"No, thanks," she Interrupted his
gratitude. "I, too, had an Interest In
the game. When my own mother
lenrns of your betrothal to Lucia,
when tho desirable Harnett Willis Is
no longer free, why then Hill may foe
h lesser evil, too."

It was unusually silent at the Merrl
well breakfast table that sunny morn
ing. Jimmy, Sr., neglected the golden
brown pancakes and gave his undivid
ed attention to the morning paper.
Mother Morrlwell sat motionless, her
eyes fixed on Jimmy, Sr.'s face, while
Jimmy, Jr., dabbled unheeded In his
oatmeal.
"What Is the matter with you this
morning, Jim?" asked his wife. "You
haven't eaten n thing; Anything
wrong with the breakfast?"
"No! yes I Everything is wrong!"
snapped her husband. Jim never had
spoken to his wife In thnt tone be
fore. "Jim! Whnt on earth are you talk
ing nbout?"
Standing beside her chair, his face
white, his hands shaking, he pointed
an accusing finger at her.
"You're the reason ! How can I get
anywhere In this world when, Instead
helping, you deliberately hinder?"
Nan snt very still, her eyes big with
wonder. He went on
"Hero I am, a young man. with n.
reasonable amount of brains, trying to
get along In my work, to make a suc
cess of myself, nnd how can I whun
my wife Insists on wearing house
nprons from morning till night? Oth
er men's wives wear trim, stylish
clothes, nnd look nice, but you . . ."
He broke off nid paced the floor.
He went Into the hall and strug
gled Into his overcoat, and then came
back.
"You know nbout that proposition
If I got that chance It will mean il sub
stantial raise, but I can't do It alone.
A nice wife, you are!"
All that morning, Nnn wns (pilot,
trying to think of some way to ap
pease her husband. Lunch time near,
sho prepared some wnflle hatter. Then
the hell rang, and to her astonishment
her husband ami a stout, elderly man
Mood at the door.
"This Is Mr. Charleson, Nnn. Mr.
Chnrloson, meet my wife." Mr.
Charleson was president of Jim's com
pany, and It was he who would deter
mine who would get the Knlrvlew con
tract. She led them Into the cheery
living room, where Jimmy, Jr.. snt on
tho floor In tho sun, playing.
"Mr. Charleson and I were over to
Fnlrvlew, nnd as It was lunch time,
wo thought we'd come here." Jim
avoided his wife's eyes, but ,Nun rose
to the occasion.
"I am sure I am very glad to hnvo
you, Mr. Charleson. If you will ex
cuse me, I'll get lunch."
When they entered the dining room,
Jim shot her a look of reproach as he
viewed the table, but Mr. Charleson
was very jovial, and soon he and Nan
were chatting like old friends. To
Jim's disgust, tho topics were baby
and cooking.
"May I have more salad, Mrs. Morrl
well?" asked tho visitor, "it's n long
time since I've tasted anything so
good."
Ho ronched for another wnflle.
"I remember when I was a hoy.
down In Louisiana, every Wednesday
was 'walllo day,' and how I used to
look forward to It. Wo nto them by
the dozens."
Fur dessert, there wore big, sugary
doughnuts that Nan had made that
morning. Mr. Chnrloson lenned back
and smiled nt Nan.
"You're a line cook, Mrs. Morrlwell,
nnd I'm going to send my wife over to
see j on nnd yet your recipe for dough
nuts."
When they had gone, Nun dropped
wearily Into a chair and cried. Jim
my, Jr., toddled over to her nnd she
caught him In her linns.
"Oh, baby, I'm afraid we've queered
everything. Jim was so angry."
An hour earlier than usual, Jim
burst In, recklessly slamming the door,
caught his wife and swung her clear
off the floor, covering her face with
kisses,
"Oh, Nannie, girl, you did It! I've
got It I" And he twirled her around
again.
"About ten o'clock Mr. Chnrloson
called mo Into his ofllce and said he
wns going to Fnlrvlew, nnd wanted
'mo to go along. Well, we went, nnd
ho discussed the whole thing with me,
nnd I took notes. About twelve o'clock
he said :
" 'You live near here, don't you, Mor
rlwell?' "I snld 'Yes, nnd then Invited him
to lunch. What else could I do? He
accepted, and I poium! nnd prayed
you'd have something In tho house.
Well, after wo left the liouse ho was
rather quiet for a while, and then ho
said :
"'Morrlwell, you're a very lucky
man; do you know It?'
"I asked why.
" 'Your wife Is a girl In n thousand.
She's got the right Idea. I only wish
my own wife were nioro like her. I
wanted to see your home, Jim. I
wanted to pop In unexpectedly, whero
there could he no possible chnnco of
preparation, nnd just get a glimpse of
your home life. I did, nnd 1 tell you
you're a wise man.
" 'Your wife knows how to cook. Sho
doesn't feed you on French pastry llko
so ninny women would. And by tho
way, you can start on that Fnlrvlew
contract next week. Have your esti
mates ready by Mondny.'"
Jim's voice quivered nnd ho burled
his head on Nun's lap.
"Oh, Nannie, girl, you'll forgive mo,
won't you 7"
