I If Ben Dcan'f 'confusion at Mrs.
I Coogrove'i announcement was not
. natural it wit most clever and ered
i ittilt imitation. Lillian' cyei and
mine told each other that, and 1
found myiclf doubting the nounj.
:. r.cM of our theory that h had tent
a telegram hi the early morning, jn
I; strutting that the be umnionj to
tj leave the Coagrove farm house.
; She rose and walked swiftly to the
telephone, and as I had my first
! chance to inspect tier complete cos
tume she h.ad beeu seated when we
came iiH-I gave another swift, fur.
? tive glance at Lilian and caught a
? cojnprehciiding twitcli of her eyelids
.in, return, '''For Utss Dean was at
.? tired for traveling, .from her modish
t1 silk blouse to'her unity brown pumps,
r!and her eklft belonged to the travel
P ing suit sjie, had, wyrn upon the day
Of her arrival, and which wc had seen
but once' or twice-since. She had
divided. her sartorial time between,
; hct'anort clothes, which she much
' fancied, and filmy summer gowns for
I the; days wnen no climbing or fishing
J trip's were scheJqled. 1 - .
t "What la It?'!-
Tie -traveling suit to Lillian, to
i me, 'Dicky-; end, I- guess, to the
i Cosgroves also, "- spellci ' but one
"thing: Bess Dean's previous knowl
edge of the telephone call, at which
one ndu ju( tiiuwn sucn naive sur
prise. I think we all listened shamelessly
to the one-sided telephone conversa
tion. I know I did, and was sure
that the girl had purposely left the
floors open between the dining room
and the sitting room, where the tele
phone was installed.
"Yes, this is Miss Dean. Oh, Miss
Edwards? What is it? Why I I
don't understand. ":: f thought jiext
Tuesday. I "was 'eure that was -the
date you wrote meJ' ; I hive the lct-
ter. . But. of course, no-matter how
' the mistake occurred, I'll get there,
the1 minute I can. I'm-sorry it happened-
Ohf yes,' JH bring the let-
- ter I Goodby."
The receiver, clicked on the hock
and' she. came back .into the dining
room with the most: realistic imita
tion pf a roufed Jemper J ever have
-seen. Her eyes hed angry sparks,
', and' hef- cheeks were deeply flushed.
"Tha horrid- od cat!''
S.he sat "down tS h?r interrupted
breakfast,-.while we. ail looked at her
wit? ' curious, .inejest. . But 'Dicky
was the -only one who spoked .
"that yon are a;1it peeved, at, some
unfortunate - tnembcr of youf well
knovVn and gentle sex." ,
.-; "I'd like e wring her neck," Bess
sDtan retorted i'viciouslv. then with
i ; every appearance m virtuous maig

did not begin until next week.
I And fter thi, freak calls me down
over the telephone for not being
': there, says school has opened, that
she wrote me thP .letter bsrseff, and
, there could he no mistake, and so
I forth and so on. I'd like to see her
face when I show the principal her
letter,, for I 'W not going to monkey
with her one minute."
"You're perfectly right," Dicky
sajd eniphatically-'Never deal with
a mere miniog 'Assort your rights,
I'm proud of you.''
She wrinkled her ose at him, a
saucy, rather attractive bit of panto
mime, which 6he frequently em
ploys, toying with Jier salad for a
minute before speaking again, ' r
''Now., the next thing is what
train can I get? That afternoon
train reaches New. York too late for
me to make connections for Haver
ford, except with an evening train.
j I don't want to get into the town at

"Thers is.'?.On: of the stranger
guests spoke decidedly. "But you'd

in order to make it by motor at the
w : average pace.'' ; .- "
"I wonder," she Jopked across at
Djcky. "Don't yov want to be real
i sweet to me,' DtckyTbird, and motor
me down to Rhinebeck? . It's a gior-
knjs day; and you oueht to be glad
I to do it just to. be rid pf me,"
, "Nothing would please me . bet

I've piade. an appointment to meet a
man and see abou. a bit ot property
t;p here that I've got my eye on.
But me wife is a chauffeur pf repute,
and me car is, as you know, a ,wqn
dcr. I fey thern both at your feet."
There was but one thinsr for me to
say, and I said it promptly, with as
c much enthusiasm as I could muster:
J "If I'll do, Bess, I'd be delighted,
J T simply must get a motor hat to
wear home mine is too dilapidated
t for words and Kingston has some
f very, good shops. Lillian, did'nt I
hear yoa say you had some shop

Can't you come, too?"

Common Sense
By J. J. MUNDY.
The Encouraging Work.
When a man whom you know is
experiencing hard luck; when every
th ng seems to be going against him;
when his so-called friends have de
serted and he feels alone and dis
graced, do you go to him and try to
make him forget some of his sorrow?
You might do a lot of good by
telling snch a man some of the good
things he has donesome of the
worthy achievements he has -to his
credit. :
If he has done you a favor some
time, tell him about it, and offer to
repay it with a liberal interest.
One of the hardest blows to a man
who is down and out, is the thought
' .hit .11 ihr onaA hr hi i done has
; been forgotten, and that those to
whom he nas done a gooa turn no
