mischief in those orbs, which for the
stranger are full of revelations in the pos
slbilities of the pastime of flirting, which
cuban girls have reduced to q science.
But to be dangerous she must have her
fan, that deadly implement of Cupid,
which she understands how to employ
with ravishing potency. Without her fan
she Will not engage in the combat, as in
such case, flirting becomes raw and
clumsy, while with one it is artistic, cleo
trio. and instead of requiring boldness,
the effect is heightened by Ne suggestion
OF modeSty. If man is inclined to hasten
matters by seeking an early introduction
TO Cuban girl, she has only to close her
fan and look at him with cool surprise to
make him go away uncertain whether
she has been playing with him or his eyes
have deceived him. They add to the effect
by combining their few signals with q
movement of their fans.
A glance of admiration must be caught
on the instant Between the removal
and replacing of the fan and the glance
seems thousand times more mischievous
than it would have looked had not the
fan lent it something of slyness and
secrecy. The flirting girl smiles behind
her fan, allows the young man to see the
mischievous expression and then hides
her face in confusion. Imagine roguish
laughing glance at the top or size Of
fan quickly replaced by the view of
demure round face, respondent with its
coal black eyes and ruby lips, turned
calmly in another direction and wearing
the expression of statue. There is
probably more flirting in Cuba than in
any other place, but this is doubtless to
be attributed to the fashion the women
have of lolling in the windows, which
is taken advantage of by the young men,
and has led to a curious custom.

them both with the ball and had to de-
clare them out. The way Maude treated
me after that episode very nearly led to
the discovery of the relations between us.
That however, was reserved for the mel
ancholy future.
The first inning threatened to be
eternal, for the catcher of the Lilies was
entirely ornamental. She could not
have stopped one of the widows shoots
IL she'd stood in front of it, and she was
too cautious to try that. In the course
of time. however, one of the Daisies nit
the ball, and this so delighted an admirer
in the grand stand that he sent her bou-
quet by boy With desire to triumph
over rival she walked off her base and
sweetly asked the widow to pin it on for
her. The widow promptly touched her
with the ball and that settled it. The
victim said that the widow was an ugly,
mean thing and she'd never speak to her
again.
The Lilies weren't SO long about it.
The pitcher of the Daisies just tossed the
ball in, and the first Lily to take the bat
knocked the ball right down to first
base. The first baselady fell down on 1t
as 1t was passing over the bag and Sc
cured an tout" which won her much ap-
plause. Then the catcher got hit with a
third strike, and it made her SO angry
that she grabbed the ball and chased the
batter all over the right field with it.
Away in centre field they both got tired
and sat down, SO decided that the Lily
was out for running out of the base line.
She said that it was real mean, anyway,
and she continued to sit where she was;
and refused to be comforted
Pretty soon the Lilies had to take the
field, and the widow with wicked eye
was in the box again. l had grudge
against her for making me chase the ball
SO much, SO tried to coach the batters on
the other side.
There was one pretty little Daisy in
particular who came to the bat after my
wife had reached second base. was tell
ing her lots of points about batting, and
in order to make her listen breathed q
little delicate ~hattery into her shell-like
ear. This tickled her so that she turned
round to me and said, coquettishly:-

She never got any further than that
because, at that moment, the widow hit
her in the back with vicious in-shoot,
and she fell into my arms in dead faint
Maude had been fixing her hair out on
second base, but at this unfortunate mo-
menJ she looked up and saw me support
ing the inanimate Lily. Maude always
was of jealous disposition, and this sight
was too much for her. She just came
straight for the home plate, cutting off
third worse than Mike Kelly did

"No, Pm not out" she said, beginning

The way she went on let the secret out,
and all the Lilies began to accuse me of
giving the game to my wife's side, and
they said didn't know any more about
baseball than a COW. Then got mad and
called the game.
At this the reporters came upon the
field and got eighteen different versions
of the score and of my infamous du-
plicity, which they published in all the
papers, under the heading of society

THE WAY IT rs WORKED IN CUBA.
If youth is smitten by maiden's
charms, and does not know her name, or
how to become acquainted with her, he
walks by her window of an afternoon,
passing and repassing, and directing side
chances at the object of his admiration.
She is quick to notice this, and if in
clined to encourage him she remains in
her seat. In time, he may venture to
speak to her, and may secure an invita-
ton to call upon the family, after a few
whispered chats at the window, or will
have way pointed out to him for a
formal introduction. But if his man
ners and looks are distasteful and
offensive to the young woman, she waits
till she is certain that he sees her, and
then quits the window with show of
great displeasure, founcing into the
room and banging the window shutters
into the street on shopping excursions,
to make calls or for any other purpose
unless they are attended by servant or
an elderly person.
Thus does the Cuban belle, from whom
the f1irtatious American girl may learn
so much in her favorite art, pass by many
but easy gradations' up Cupid's stairway.
The heated term is gliding swiftly away
| and with the advent Of September the alb
sent bellies are returning to the city with
an infinite Inconsistencies and self-com-
plaeency of manner that savors of fall
| ing mercury and coming marriage. May
| they repose in the reflection that the past
| is secure, and quaff the cup of assured ex-
pectation until the flowers fade, TIL win.
| ter, or Caerhaps till Easter, when they
! may finaf4s scale the heights of happiness
| by the ladder of love.

will continue whispering to her for some
time, while she joins in the conversation
of her relatives with an air of pretended
interest that an actress might envy. One
never sees woman reading in Cuba, and
for that matter nobody weakens
their eyes by such an amusement.
Every club has its library, but the
collection of books is slender and
the volumes are dusty and abandoned
looking. The women and girls some
times hum pretty Cuban tune, or chat
among themselves and comment on the
passersby; but often they are content to
Toll lazily, as they fan themselves with
that graceful mastery of their huge fans
peculiar to Spanish and semi-Spanish
women. The only women to be seen in
Cuba who possess energy are the ballet
dancers in the theatres. But inactive as
they are, their listlessness does not ex-
coed that of the men, as no one allows
himself to be disturbed with work BY
o'clock in the evening the main streets
of n Cuban town hum with activity. On
the clear and cool evening air the ladies
come out in full force, accompanied by
their husbands, mothers OF duennas on
their way to the theatre, or to sit in one
of the parks and listen to the music of the
military band. Here the beaux and

which rapidly became arduous. They
were also dangerous, for whenever a
young woman had three strikes called on
her she screamed in highly disquieting
manner, shut her eyes, threw her bat
wildly into space (and usually in my
dfrection), and then made a frantic
plunge lin the direction of first base.
When She got there as she invariably
did while was chasing the ball, always
had to call time while she fixed her hair.
Meanwhile the nine captains OF the side
that was out came up and reviled me
cruelty for not chasing the bali faster.
Some of them had only misty idea of
the rules of the game. Maude was one of
these. On one occasion she reached first
base while was making my customary
excursion after the missed third strike
It was her idea to get back to the home
plate somehow and thus secure the APP

liberal for the first two or three dozen
: runs that were made. Maude always
-~9s fond of admiration. When the girl
pllowed Maud at the bat had swiped
tie air three times she put her head down
and set out for first base. This looked
like an elegant chance for Maude, and

base line with her eyes shut. She and
the other Daisy met midway with a
crash that scattered hair pins all over the
field. The widow, who understood the
