; Lottie's Blue Eyes
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.!

THE narrowing conviction was Fore
ing itself upon Miss Sophias mind
that her brother, Rev. Harmon PEN
dleton, at the mature age of "A, had
actually fallen in love. This fact was
in itself an offense to Miss Sophia, but
it was not all, for the minister had
committed the supreme folly of losing
his heart to chit of a girl, and a most
Objectionable young person altogether
in Miss Sophia's eyes.
''Now, If he had only fallen in love
with Mary" unused Sophia. "She is a
most estimable young woman. But
that doll-faced, vain, frivolous Lottie-'
and Miss Sophia groaned. "A man of his
age and a minister of the Gospel to lose
his wits over pink and white complex
ion and yellow hair! Oh, it is too bad.
II only knew of some way to olsen
chant him."
Just then two girls and a young man
passed along the street. One Of the
girls was tall, dark-haired and stately;
the other was pink-cheeked and yellow
haired. Her hands were full Of roses
and her laughing eyes were upifted
in the face of the young man by her
side.
Miss Sophia snorted with disgust.
Flirting, as usual, the shameless
piece!'' she calculated. "a nice min
ister's wife she would make! Harmon's
an IDIOT"
Then Miss Sophia suddenly awoke to
the fact that the hired girl had been
left much too long at her own devices,
and rose hastily to her feet. In SO do
ing she tripped over stool and gave
her ankle severe wrench.
Z A little later Rev. Harmon Pendleton
returned home and found Miss Sophia
with her foot on a stool and her ankle
swathed in bandages.
.'Why, Sophia, what has happened p
asked the minister.

Miss Sophia, with grim disgust. II
