But Isa bell'd usually smiling mouth was puckered Into an unhappy little twist. The ticket she had put in her glove read “Lestervllle,” where, Isolated from suitors, theaters, dances and good times, she was expected to spend an eventless vacation away from the city with her aunt, who was to strictly see to it that she did nothing else but eat good food, fresh from the farm, and rest. Perfectly ridiculous, wasn’t It, that such an attractive'girl as Isabell, with absolutely nothing the mutter with her, should be made to spend her vaca tion in such a place? Her aunt hud said there were no young people in the neighborhood. Isabell laughed as she recollected. Who even heard of a neighborhood without young people? However, her aunt wus true to her word. After Isabell had stayed four days In Lestervllle she had not seen anyone her own age except the tawny haired, freckle-faced farmhand. Isa bell, craving companionship, thought the boy "better than nothing,” und they spent many a half-hour together. When Isabell had been a week in Lestervllle she heard there was going to be a costume party in the villuge. Her freckle-faced friend told her of It. She began making plans for it, having made up her mind she was going. Arriving conspicuously late at the party, there was nothing for them to do but watch the games which were In progress on lantern-bedecked lawns. A young man dressed as Captain Ivldd, evidently their host, offered Isabell his place In a game of croquet. “But I don't know how," she had objected. Tom, at their host’s suggestion, eager ly took his mallet and joined in the game. “I’m sorry you don’t play," said the host, “but there are six or seven other games you could join. They’re danc ing the Virginia Reel in the barn. Come, let’s do that." Smiling, Isabell took his arm. “It’s quite a while since I’ve done it, but I’ll try.” And a few moments later Isabell was “doing It.” She little knew what a gay picture she made In her Egyptian costume, dancing in and out, clapping and bowing to her unknown escort, whose fiercely grotesque costume seemed to enhance the beauty of his little partner's outfit. "Let’s play ‘It,’ ” said Captain Kidd, after the dancing was over. Then followed a period of explana tions. In spite of the fact that Isabell knew very few of the games, she found her host more than eager to explain. He took her to this group and that group, Introduced her, but never once let any of the other men be her part ner. Somebody tugged at her dress. It was Tom. “Hurry, we got to go now, or we’ll get caught. The thing’s ’most over l” Dismayed, Isabell looked at her san dalless foot. “I can’t, Tom, until he finds my sandal.” “We can’t wait," he said. "Come with me now—easy, this way—so they won't notice." It was ten o’clock, the day after the party. Isabell was getting ready to go blueberrylng. In a sunbonnet, hardly to be recognized as the dazzling Egyp tlan princess of the night before, yet certainly as desirable, she was soon walking In a thicket of berry bushes. B'rom time to time she wondered, how she had been able, as she recalled last night’s experiences, to get home ahead of her uunt, hustle under the bed clothes still in her costume, and wear the Innocent expression she had worn when her aunt had opened her door to see if all was well. B'or un hour Isabell picked, humming snatches of a gay little tune. Then there had been a slight rustling in the bushes, a scream from Isabell, and the berries had been scattered In a hun dred directions. Then she had run and run. A young man was coming toward her. instinctively he held out his arms and she ran right into them. Absurd, Isn’t it, to try and work against fate? How hard Isabell’s aunt bad worked to keep her niece away from parties and excitement. And she had only to send her niece out to a blueberry patch where there wasn’t supposed to be a soul around for miles, and a young man dropped right out of the clouds at her feet. It was Cuptain Kidd who carried Isa bell back to the road. He took a Jong time about It, going around a longer way than necessary. “You say you only saw his horned he asked. “Yes. But I don’t think I’ll ever be able to go berrying again.” . He looked down at the pale face. ‘He wouldn’t hurt you. He probably run faster than you did, “When we get to the road, I‘m going to give you your slipper.” “You have my slipper 1" she cried. ‘Why, It’s Just like the Cinderella fairy tale, Isn’t It? “My, but we’re taking a long time getting to the road. Why, you’ve taken me around the longest way. Naughty prince l Just for that. I’m go. lng to make you carry me right up u the house. Auntie will have a tit 1” And auntie did have a fit, but she might Just as well have saved her Strength. (' 1 <k PAID LOCAIaS.

RESULTS THAT REMAIN Are Appreciated by O’Neill People. Thousands who suffer from back ache and kidney complaint have tried one remedy after another, finding only temporary benefit. This is discour aging, but there is one kidney medi cine that has earned a reputation for lasting results and there is plenty of proof of its merit right here in O’Neill. Here is the O’Neill testimony of l one who used Doan's Pills years ago, and now makes his testimony even stronger. H. J. Zimmerman, prop., Cream Sta tion, Main St., says: “My backached continually day and night. My kidneys acted frequently and my head ached. I had to get up many times during the night to pass the kidney secretions which were highly colored and burned in passage.. I was also dizzy and there were severe pains in the back of my head. Doan’s Pills completely relieved me of the trouble.” AFTER SEVERAL YEARS, Mr. Zimmerman said: “It has been several years since I have had kidney trouble. My case was a bad one but Dona’s completely cured me.” 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. (First publication March 27.) NOTICE TO CREDITORS. Estate No. 1536.

Real News Paramount In the country newspaper, sensations, scandals—the recording of human misery—is almost taboo. At least it certainly is sec ondary to the printing of real news about people and things. For the province of the country paper—your HomeTownPaper —is to give community interests first place, printing the more or less sensational personal items only when necessary to keep faith with subscribers who pay for ALL the news. Therefore, your Home Town Paper can give you, in full meas ure and overflowing, 100 per cent pure news about the people in whom you are interested—your relatives and friends of the Old Home Town. “The Frontier”
