"Don't call trie 'Hess,' my name is Elizabeth; and, considering the public ity of our surroundings, I think H would be more dignified, not to say re spectful, for you to address me aa Miss Richards." "Well, I never!' ejaculated Mr. Ver non, as he seated himself at the tab) him and David was gone. After this first interview Mr. David was a fre quent visdtor at Ellaoeth's home as well as at her ofllve. To this latter place, however, he solemnly averred that he only "went on business." He was In no wise discouraged by her re fusal of his first offer of marriage, and continued to propose to her. And and surveyed the small Irate person j Elizabeth continued to refuse. How who was viciously banging her type- ever, she derived much comfort from his society, and in numerous thought ful, tender little ways he helped to brighten her life. "How many copies do you waijt?" asked Elizabeth in a most businesslike -manner, as she laid therjfianu- script on her desk. "Two," responded Mr. Vernon A reward of M.M offered by the Saiarlm ' of agriculture In Queetis tael for th dlacovary of a mean of sraMcstlnc th "prickly pear" pst waiefe Is s cactus Imported from Tho ramedy must not com tkan a eorUIn sum par acre, antaior American: "Th refrain," V all to oar neighbor at the vaude Cs psrforwaaco while the popular tai was beinc rendered, "la prettier CM Dm vorsts."

Chicago Tribune: "Haven't you any occupation?" asked the woman at the klthen door, after listening to hie tale , of woe. "Tea, ma'am," responded , Tuffold Knut, "I'm s hunter.'' j writer, "You'll smh your machine, Hess ahem! Miss Richards if you keep that up." The young woman stopped, folded her hands and bestowed on Mr. Ver-Tiori-a withering glanea ffow a- pair of sapphire blue eyes. "Can't you see I'm busy?" she de manded ominously. "You've been here once before today. What do you want?" "To talk with you," replied Mr. Vernon, impertui bably. "One would think I was here for the sole purpose of entertaining people," Miss Richards replied sarcastically. "I've had to settle two extremely Im pertinent already this morning. I beg of you not to make the third." "What did they say to you?" in quired her visitor, in a tone which boded no good for thtm were they In his vicinity. "Oh," wearily, "one dictated two tet ters, and on the strength of It asked me to go out driving with him; the other desired my company at lunch eon." "The scoundrels!" growled Mr. Ver non savugely. -Give it up, Bess, and marry me." , "I don't know why it is," continued V1IS8 Richards, declining to take any lotiee of her offer, "but nine men out t ten, if they bring me one dollar's worth of work, think they may stay iUd bore me for an hour. The tenth always imagines I'm hungry or pining for a drive." "I really this play will net you at least twenty," interrupted Mr. Vernon In a blended tone of meekness and mischief, taking a roll o manuscript from his pocket, "and, according to your statement Bess, I'm liable to bore you for twenty hours. Still, if. you prefer the drive or" "I,et me see it!" cried Elizabeth eagerly. "Oh, Dave, Is it your new play?" "Yes," replied Mr Vernon, handing her the" manuscript, "but 1 really wish, my dear girl, you would be more re spectful when you address me. My name is David, and, in a public place like this" with a comprehensive glance around the rornm. which con tained only himself and Miss Rich ards "I really think it would be more dignified for you to say Mr. Vernon." "Oh. brother!" retorted Elizabeth, making a naughty face. After which expressive remark she plunged Into the manuscript and became utterly obliv ious to Mr. Vernon's presence. They had met two years before at Cornell. It was Elizabeth's llrst year and David's lust. He had a sister, who was in her class, a:id the two girls became very intimate. Naturally the brother came in for his shur of attention, and, as naturally, he fell a victim to the charms of his sister's friend. Before the close of the year Elizabeth had to resign all thoughts of a college education. The death of her father and the condition of affairs made it necessary for her to assume the sup port of her mother and little brother. ,he bad made herself proficient in stencgraphy before entering Cornell. :'.nd, for a time, had acted as her father's secretary. On her return home she devoted six week to "getting up her speed," and then opened on of fice In a newspaper building on F street. David Vernon loomed once more in her horizon, about a year after sin' had begun her stenographic career. Ills uncle was a well-known Washing ton lawyer, and he offered to take David into the firm as Junior partner. Ths young man would have preferred a literary career, but the opening wis such a good one that he accepted it. It also had the advantage of bringing him nearer to Elizabeth. He devoted his evenings to the stuoy of literature, however, and already had fame as the author of several little comedies. When he learned what Kllzubetn was doing, and how hard nhe. hud lo work, David, with fine prospects but a snuill salary, asked her to marry him, and Elizabeth laughed. "I'd spoil your career, Dave," she said, "and if thai Is not a good rea son" with a glance of amusement "I have a belter." "What Is il?" demanded Mr. Vernon. "I don't love you," she returned. "Pesldes you are only twenty-seven, David, and you don't want to burden yourself with a wife for at least eight years. I'll be too oh?, then thirty and you'll prefer some young girl." , "I'll do no such thing," Interrupted David eagerly. "I've loved you for two years, and I'm going to marry you if I have to wait until you're forty! There Isn't a reason on earth why you can't love me," he added with a (ouch of Indignation; "I'm good looking, clever" "Oh, David!" "Well, you're not going to deny II, are you?" demanded he wrathfully. "I'll tell you what, Bess, In five years I shall be rich. Then, how nice for you to be Mrs. Vernon." "What a mercenary wretch you must think me!" said Elisabeth with a gleam of mischief In her eyes. "Be lieving me to be adamant whore your good look and cleverness are concern ed, you tempt me with riches. For harms, elr, for shame!" But the office door slammed behind promptly, and then added mischiev ously, "that is, unless you want an extra copy for yourself. Maybe when I'm dead and gone, Elizabeth, it will comfort you to pore over these ev idences of genius your criticism has fostered." "More like you will lose your copies and want to borrow mine," said Eliz abeth in the tone of one having ex perience. Mr. Vernon regarded her mournfully. "There isn't an ounce of sentiment In you," he remained. "Thank heaven, there Isn't." replied Miss Richards fervently. "You may not realize it, bu,t sentiment is a dan gerous trait for a woman In my posi tion. Now," she added teasingly, as she saw' the look of disgust creeping over David's smooth-shaven face, "now if I'd been sentimental, Dave, I would doubtless have been married and di vorced several times in the last two years." "I wish to goodness you'd quit this place," growled David, gazing at her anxiously. "You grow more cynical and flippant every day." "Who'd decypher your miserable chirography if I did?" demanded she archly. "We could have a machine at home," he suggested eagerly. Miss Richards laughed. "What a tempting prospect!" she cried gaily. "All your other suggestions have failed to appeal to me, but this one is so brilliant, Dave, I shall really have to consider it." Once again the door banged violently and the small mistress of the estab lishment found herself alone. "Never mind, he will be up to the house to night," she thought philosophically as she went back to her machine. The day following the stnogruphio office of Miss Richards was a very busy place. Work had come In, as was often the case, with a rush, and Elizabeth had to engage another sten ographer to assist her. Toward the close of the day, however, she found time to begin David's play. As she proceeded with it her - Interest-grew apace, "it is his best effort," she kept repeating to herself exultantly, while her fingers flew swiftly over the keys, "and it must succed!" She had just finished the first act when her eyes fell on a tiny sheet of notepaper which had doubtless slipped between the leaves of the manuscript by accident, and the following In. a dainty hand greeted her: "My Dearest Boy I am sorry not to have seen you Friday night and so glad that you have gotten over being cross with me. Do come Sunday, and we'll bury the hatchet for good. It was all a mistake, dear, but you must ad mil I had cause to act as T did you were seen with her so much." RUTH. Elizabeth put her hand to he head in a dazed fashion. So Dave was like all the rest. Dave, whom she had believed to be all her own! And another girl was complaining of his attentions to her Elizabeth! Well, the other girl would have no further occasion to complain as far as she was concerned'. When Mr. Vernon called the next day, Miss Richards was taking a speech for Senator Smith. The learned legislator was tvxmplng up and down t lie little ollice, talking, it seemed to David, at the rale of three hundred words a minute, and gesticulating fiercely. Elizabeth looked up from her notebook and pointed a roll of p ipers ou her dcuk. David helped himself mill went out. That night when he called nt Ihti house of Mrs. Richards informed him jlhaf Bess had a head ache and ttskfd to be excused, I!c thought nothing of this, but when two or three days had gone by and In failed to get speech with hor David licgi'n to feel both Indignant and wor ried. . "Either BcMS is Wirl:'g herself io death or she's out with me about something," he thouulit, as he straight ened his cravat, preparuloiy to mak ing another call on the obdurate danivel. H was a little early for his visit, so David deckled 10 glance over the man uscript he had obtained from Eliza beth. There was an Interroga tion Hint on the sixth page of her copy. As this was her method of calling at tention to something I hut was not dear in his language or chirography. he began turning over the original to (hul the page and make comparison. In doing this he came across the little scented sheet of gray nolepaper and gave vent to a low whistle as he read it. "This accounts for Bess's behuvlor," he said aloud, "but who In the name of all that myrteiioiis is Ruth, and hnvv come that letter in my manuscript?" A moment later there was a knoi at the door and Charlie Thurston rami In. Mr. Thurston was dramatic ed itor for one of the dally papers and boarded In Ihe same house wllh David. "I want that play of yours, Dave," he said hastily. "Ooodwln has prom ised lo look It over tonight. If he takes It, your fortum? Is made." "Let us hope he will take It, then. Held Dave, handing him the Manu script. As ho dll o, the 11 lilt- sheet of gray pott-paper fluttered tj loe Hour. ' ... Charlie picked it up. "Where o earth dft this come from?" be de manded in astonishment. "I've been asking myself the earn question for the last ten minutes." replied Dave, laughing. "Some puriKW or perron unknown put It between ilk leaves of my play." The puzzled look on Charlie Thurs ton' face gave way to a smile. "I ha it on my desk the night I sat up read- . Ing your confounded stuff, and it mu have slipped in somehow. By the war. old man," he added after a little paus ,'ypu must congratulate me. Ruth an I are to be married next month.". 'Miss Gilmore?" asked Dave in . 1 i ' 1 . . . 1,. 1 . . h. is It?' Wel, Charlie, here' my hano, You always were a lucky fellow." A half hour later David was stand ing on Mrs. Richards' steps. The doar was unlocked and he went In. He feared Bess might send word ehe waa not at home if he rang the bell. 'They are awfully careless about tle door," he said under hi breath a bfc pushed the pai lor portlers aside. Tb room was dark and deserted and the housebreaker proceeded on his way i , the library. In the soft light of the red lamp he saw a little figure curloU up on the lounge by the window. 'You didn't stay very long, mother.'" said a familiar voice. 'No, I thought you'd be lonesome responded Mr. Vernon promptly. Elizabeth sprang to her feet. "Ot, it Is ycu, David?" she said ungra ciously. 'Yes, it is me," returned Mr. Verno forcibly il ungrammatically. 'I can'ft say, Bess, that you seemed overjeye because of my arrival." 'I don't like people creeping Ur on tae unawares," replied Bess Richard crossly. 'Then people shouldn't refuse to see There was an awkward silense- t! 11.. v.m.fu4 VlS I UiLVIU illlcUiy Ul UjJ dim iJumiiA "J- jhair nearer Elizabeth's loun-s. "Goodwin has agreed to examine irif play," he remarked. "Charlie Thurs ton you've met Charlie askeij him t do it. Thurston sat up the other nigha. until the' 'wee sma' hours' perusing H, and he says he's certain Goodwin 'iS take it." "I am sure I hope you will be suc cessful," was Miss Richards' polite rt-jolnder. David eyed her mischieviously. "T4jr the way, Bess, dkl you ever meet Ruffa Gilmore?" he Inquired, innocently. The color flamed into her face. "Hk. why did you ask?" "Nothing, only she's just promise to marry Charlie, and I wondered Jf you knew her." A long silence followed this interest ing news item. Then Dave left tn chair and seated himseif on the sofjt. "Say you're ashamed of yourseST, Bess," he whispered, as he slipped Ijif arm around her waist. "I am dreadfully ashamed," she ans wered softly. And Dave looking twa in th'Acyes saw something that he baA never seen there before. "But this doesn't mean that I ai.ui 'pring to marry yodNaow," said EEes beth a few moments later. "You mkr. remember that I have responsibilities, David, and you may have to wait Ur me as long as Jacob did for Rachel.'" "I'll do no such thing," replied Jfcc, Vernon with emphasis. . "I'll give -it just six months to settle your impor tant buyiness matters, so you had .pes ter g-et accustomed to the idea." Elizabeth shook her head. "We'll decide that later," she said smiling, and Dave, who loved her proud, inde pendent ways, wisely forbore and iaj ther discussion of the subject 4hit evening. "I reckon I've proposed to yau nty times seven,"he remarked later he was bidding her good-night, 1W you haven't told me yet, Bess, -what iiultised you to even agree to arcejat me in the far off future." Elizabeth laughed mischievously, "It was your suggestion that I wuu'iC continue to pound my typewriter at Mrs. Vernon," she replied, saucily.. Really, Dave, dear, no feiii in the pro fesston could withstand an offer f tempting as that." This time David didn't slam door; he kissed Elzab'-th instead. Die THE CHURCH BELL.
