KITTY'S STRATAGEM.

Such little witch as she was, this
Kitty Day, of whom l write. She
couldn't help flirting if she tried, and
it wasn't her fault, of course, if men
were taken in by the round, childish
face and great Innocent blue eyes
For they were, scores of them, and
Kitty went on her way rel oicing-com-
pletlng their bewilderment by the shy
looks, and smiles, and bushes, that
really meant nothing, but were very
effective, nevertheless.
But, in all unlucky hour for Kitty,
she said yes to Il dark melancholy
Young man, who had been her shadow
for months. She wasn't in earnest,
but did it for the fun of the thing, .
and because she wanted to know how
it felt to be engaged 1t resulted
seriously, however, for, in spite of en-
press commands to the contrary, the
accepted sutton went directly TO her
father and told him all about it.
Mr. Day looked at his daughter mis-
chievously that night, as she sat be-
hind the tea-urn with such comical
assumption of dignity.
80 Pm to lose my little housekeep-
er before long, am l :" questioned he,
significantly.
why papa, what do you mean -
and Kitty blushed scarlet.
Mr.. hilbert called on Inc today.
He is an excellent young man, and the
son of one of my oldest friends. |
heartily approve your choice, my
dear"
He promised to keep the engage
ment a secret said Kitty, in veXed
tone,
80 he told me, but concluded after
ward to break his promise rather than
act dishonesty. For it wouldn't have
been quite fair to have concealed the
engagement from me-"
Il don't know why, I'm sure It's
only bitof my fun, any way. lnever
meant to marry him"
Mr.. Day looked at her sternly.
I'm not jesting," she added, pet
tishly. He threw himself into such Il
passion that | was fairly frightened
into saying Yes, and sorry enough
I've been for it since"
Are you in earnest, Kitty -
Yes, am, and the blue eyes flash
ed detiantly.
rs it possible that a daughter of
mine has so little feeling and princi-
ple:n
Now, papa, what is the use of lee
turing. You know me of old. I'm i'll
trouble and want you to help me out
of it."
But you've given your word, Kitty,
aud must abide by it,"
Didn't he break his -
Yes, and was justified in doing so.
But you are not. Still,Tll give you IA
choice of two evils, if you think mar
rying young Gilbert one. Few girls
would. Either keep your promise and
make the best of circumstances. or
break it aud pass the winter in the
country with your aunt Dorothy.
