There is a little town, not so very far

Maranthis, the practical, the alert,
who believes Change is Rest, appropri
ates the page of advertisements. And
as Bhe reads in a soft, murmuring tone,
suited to the calm of the morning, half
to me and half to herself, I catch a new
glimpse of this dear Town of Every-Day
Comfort from Maranthis' standpoint.
You must know that Maranthis' house
keeping garment, or captain's toga, or
whatever, is never left at home. She
clothes herself with the mantle of a gen
tle authority every morning, and when
her foot strikes the quarter-deck of
home, even this temporary home, she
takes command of the ship.
"Ah," murmurs the voice, "here's the
place for our linen! 'Sweet Lavender
Laundry! Ladies' muslins personally
conducted through the tubs. Negligee

we'll spend an afternoon occasionally:
'Miss Ten-Spott will conduct a whist
class at her home in Maple Grove, every
afternoon from 1 to 5. Twenty-five cents
a lesson, forty cents for two from the
same family. Reduced rateB for the
course.' "
"Decidedly," said Maranthis, "we
need some expert teaching in whist.
I've known for a long time our game
does not compare with the young folks'.
But how we will astonish them next
winter in our club!"
"Oh, and my bonnets! 'Eflie Daly,
visiting milliner, makes up ladies' own
ure!'
"Roses, sweet peas, grass pinks," reads
Maranthis with a shriek of delight.
'Lcafie Lee brings to your door three
days in the week, an old-fashioned posy
of sweet-smelling flowers, such as roses,
sweet peas, grass pinks, etc Ten cents
a bunch.' We'll have a bunch on every
window-sill," said Maranthis. "And we'll
remember this summer as the Festa of
Grandmother's Flowers."
It was reported that hundreds of
horses died of the heat in St. Louis.
By actual count the number was nine.
