Al 4 HER SECRET.

Mr.. Paumerton had a very contemptu-
Gus idea of "A womans ability TO keep a
secret, and Rose, his wife, knew it and
wanted 20 prove that she could keep one.
Mr.. Paumerton one day found a man
leaving the house, and his wife immedi-
ately after looked flushed and excited. Her
husband tried 20 find out what was mp,
but she merely replied that IL was a mat
ter Of business, and that she intended 10
keep her secret. To Mr.. Paumerton's great
annoyance she did. After several weeks
he saw the male stranger come out Of the
house again and take cab. Mr.. Paumsr-
ton followed in another cab.
His own cabby stopped in front Of real
estate Office.
"He went in there" he said. "I'd kept
up closer II | could, but my horses ain't
the equals o. his"
"That's all right. Here's your money.
You need not wait. I'll take a street car
back 4"
Into the handsome Office Mr.. Paumer-
ton rushed, but the man he had followed
was not visible. tall, gray haired gen
tleman came forward.

tatingly, "to see about some real estate. T"
"Ah, yes, certainly. Sit down. I'll
show you what we have II you will ex.
plain something In regard to your wishes. "
MY wife and | have often talked Of a
home in the subur urbs-on the hills--a house
OF eight or ten rooms, nice grounds and
not too tremendously high priced"
The other smiled blandly, then walked
back to a desk TO bring forward his maps
and diagrams. In the meantime Mr.. Pau
merton saw nothing of the good looking
young fellow he had been following.

Before he went home he found exactly
what he wanted, only he learned that an

The next day he went and looked at the
house and lot A beautiful home IL was
indeed, and he put in his bid and anxious

But the other party did "go better, -
and the deeds were made out, he learned.
"I'm sorry" he said to the gray haired
gentleman, "but could not afford to Of

tion, wasn't worth any more"
Then the same individual that he had
followed not long before entered the Office
and addressed the elderly man as father.
"His SON, mused Mr.. Paumerton. ~

eye on him hereafter"
