By FANNY RICHARDSON
Ammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
l»U. by McCiur* r,«w»paper Sytiu.ualv.,
X THE age of eighteen one snould
be blissfully nappy, even in a
stuffy train—especially when one Is the
proud possessor of two boxes of choco
lates, yoses and four magazines. 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.

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.”

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.
