POLLY.

"Dear Margaret; am sorry to grievs
you, but l cannot marry John Murray.
He is too plain and pokey and would
never suit me at all. and am going
20 marry the man l love. He Is not
your style and knowing you will not
approve l am taking French leave, and
you will never be bothered with me
again. Hoping that in time you may
forgive me, l must now say farewell.
Your loving sister. Polly"
On reaching Polly's room to assist
her in dressing for her wedding Mar
garet found this note upon the table.
The girl had managed very adroitly to
get her clothes out of the house with
out exciting suspicion, and left at the
last minute. So there was no we'd
ding at the little fiat that night, and
when the guests arrived they were
quietly dismissed.
All her life Margaret Mcguire had
scrimped ard saved and sacrificed,
practicing every form of self-denial for
her younger sister At IA she entered
the shop that her small earnings might
be added to the family store Earnest
" desiring an education. she went to
night school and determined that Pol
ly should not be deprived OF the advan-
tages Of the day school. she denied her
self almost the necessities of life to
keep her out of the shop. All her
ambition was for Polly, the Sunshine OF
her life, and she sat up late plying her
needle that she might have a gay lit
tie dress for school. Her own was
patched and darned, her coat was
threadbare, her shoes were mended, but
% long as Polly had a ribbon for her
hair and was bright and happy Mar
Earet was satisfied.
Polly danced and sang, accepting all
without thought of her sisters sac
Tinces. She grew up to be beauty.
and finally graduated from the public
Uchool. much to Margaret's delight.
The younger boys now began to get
places to work, and the strain was not
quite 80 great. Margaret obtained a
situation in a dry goods store, and
they moved into a better fiat, and had
more Of the comforts of life.
Why, how pleased you look!" ex-
blamed Polly one evening when she
opened the door for her sister. Got a
raisef"
No, indeed" laughed Margaret Il
wish i had!"
She did not tell that John Murray.

He came, and Margaret received him
with fluttering heart. for she had never
attracted any mans attention before.
After few minutes Polly came n,and
Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1899-05-13

IT WAS POLLY HE CAME TO SEE.
from that moment the world was
changed for John Murray.
Polly. pretty Polly, with her viva
cious conversation, her coquettish airs,
and ravishing dimple, completely fas-
cinated him. Margaret saw 1t all. She
sat with the lines gradually deepening
IN her face, and wished she had not
been so foolish as to crimp her hair
Such frivolous things were for Polly.
and she was rightly punished.
John Murray came often after that,
but 1t WAS plain that 1t was Polly he
came to see. They became engaged.
and after a while he obtained a posi-
ton in a wholesale store and there
was no excuse for delaying the mar
riage.
Margaret worked early and late that
Polly might have pretty things for her
wedding. The day was set and small
company invited. Then she found the
little note-and Polly was gone. Not
= word Of thanks to the sister for her
self-denial-never kind word for the
man she had treated SO cruelty.
Two years dragged slowly on and
nothing was heard OF Polly. They
made no effort to find her, and did not
even know the name Of the man she
married. She dropped as completely
out Of their lives as If she had died.
John Murray continued to call at the
little home-they had a common sor-
row, but Polly's name was never men
toned.
One night, when Margaret seemed
more depressed than usual, he said:
Margaret, you must not grieve SO
much. Come, get on your things. and
lot Us 80 to some place OF amusement
and see the lighter side OF life"
They went to one Of the music halls
and there they saw Polly. She came
out upon the stage with penciled eye
brows, painted cheeks, and scant attire
and sang a coarse song with many
suggestive winks and smirks. The
look OF innocence had left her face, and
when she performed series OF high
kicks Margaret was 80 shocked she al
most tainted.
John sat as II turned to stone. and
realized as never before the contrast
between the painted woman on the
stage and Margaret. and wondered
hov he could ever have loved Polly.
