4 kind, there was no telling what he
| might do If coaxed on by q designing
woman.
| A couple of weeks had passed when
one hot afternoon the Chicago widow
sat down at an open window to read
and fan herself. She hadn't been there
ten minutes when the Rev. Peters sat
down at one of his second story win
| dows to do the same thing The wild
the. widow, but Angelina saw them
both. She saw the widows fan waved
In way that said. .Glad to see you"
and the reply was waved back, MANY
thanks" Then the widows fan began
an outrageous Irritation, and the min
ister's fan kept company with 1t, and
even when she waved that she thought
she could love him for himself alone he
wasn't driven of the field. The snub-
bed girl had watched and bided, and in
day or two social thunderclap shook
the town.
The father Of Angelina, would be
pillar, etc., had not found the Rev.
Peters as clay in his hands, as he had
hoped for, and his effort to run
things connected with the church to
suit his own ideas had not proved sue
cessful. He had put up with defeat
as meekly as possible, but, like Ange-
lima, he was on the watch and the
bide. That his only child and favorite
daughter should have failed to make
thorn in his side, and a smile of salts
faction lighted his face as she called
him to witness the last five minutes Of
the Irritation. With his own eyes he
saw those fans working as If driven
by steam power. He wasn't man to
stand anything of that sort even if he
hadn't had a grievance. He drew the
line at minister riding the bike or
playing croquet and thought he was
Overliberal at that. Within day he
and Angelina had taken care that about
30 different members Of the church had
been posted on the Irritation. 1t is
needless to say that people were dunn
founded and that the Rev. Peters wab-
bled about and almost fell down in
faint when he heard the gossip. AS
for the Widow Moreland, she was more
than astonished, but Of course she had
to giggle over it. When the elders of
the church doubted the sanity of An
gelina's father in spreading such
yarn, he vigorously replied:
.sI'll show you whether I'm crazy or
mott! Call meeting Of the vestry, and
]. will be there to make my statement
and prove it! When see a Irritation
with my own eyes, guess ] know 1t
from load of coalY'
A meeting of the elders was, called.
It had to be. The minister wanted it
as well as Mr.. Harris. When all was
ready to take up the charges, it was
Elder Spooner who asked in his slick,
suave way:
snow, Brother Harris. how long
since you flirted with woman?"
'Never in all my life!" was the indig-
nant answer.
"sThen will you please tell us how
you knew this was firtation?'
"Why-why, they were waving their
fans at each other"
"But we have seen plenty of fans
used in church. You don't mean to say
that flirtations were being carried on

corra1eHr, 1900, By c. 3. LEWIS.

49,. ."..
The Rev. George Peters of the First
| Presbyterian church of bonneville was
| q young man of about %. 1t was his
| first call, but it was agreed that his
sermons were the best ever delivered
before that congregation. He was also
popular in social way, and, taken all
around, he had a standing that few
young ministers could boast of. When
! he had been in bonneville six months,
he had made just two enemies. These
were an old maid named Angelina Har-
ris and her father Neither was an open
enemy but Angelina was piqued and
provoked and somewhat imbittered be-
cause the minister had kept clear of
the matrimonial net she would have
thrown about him. She would have
been willing to make q match of it
with almost any one, but it was the
ambition of her soul to marry clergy
man. She struck the young reverends
trail at an early date, and she followed
it with ardor and persistency until he
was obliged to give her the cold snub.4
AS she was one of his flock, and as her
father was a would be pillar Of the
church, the snub wasn't ice cold or full
Of carpet tacks, but he made his mean
ing plain nevertheless
From that hour Angelina Harris had
it in mind to do that good man up. She
didn't give her hand away y throwing
out little slurs and innuenGo es, because
she would have found no one to listen
to her. but she set herself to watch and
bide her time. He who watches and
bides finds an opening Sooner or later.
AS Angelina was keeping tab on cur
rent events a widow named Moreland
moved to bonneville from Chicago.
She was young, rich, .yivacious and
took her place at the head of society
at once. She occupied a house exactly 4
opposite the one in which the minister
lodged, and it was also next door on
the left to that occupied by Mr.. Har-
ris. She hadn't got settled yet when
Angelina made up her mind that her
cue was to watch for something be-
tween the new arrival and the minis
ter. She sized the widow up for a firt,
and, though she had never seen the |
Rev. Peters indulge in anything of the

Brother Harris as his face got very
red. Il don't know the code, as you
call 1t, but do know that they were
talking by signals that is, Ange-
lima
"Oh, 1t was your daughter Angelina

lied that he had put his foot In it.
"And how dare you charge my daugh-
ter with firting"
"But if she hasn't tiirted how does
she, know the code? You have made a
grave charge here, brother, and we look
to see you support it. You say you saw
part of the Irritation. What did the
widow convey to the pastor by her
signals? Take this fan and show us
how she used it,
al can't do it. If Angelina was''-
"Oh,i Angelina was here she could"
said Elder Spooner as the other caught
himself. "Well, let us send for her, as
1 suggested before"
''I'll never do itY'
''But the charge, brother-the charge.
Here is a charge of Irritation against
our pastor. You made it, but you
haven't submitted one iota of proof
thus far. What are you going to do
about it?"
.'Mebbe it wasn't exactly a firta-
tion," sullenly admitted the brother
after awhile.
: The Rev. Peters said he was using
the fan to drive away the flies and
bring breath of cool air as he read
over the sermon he was to preach on
the following Sunday. He had neither
noticed the widow nor Angelina nor
her father. The Widow Moreland had
insisted on being present. Yes, she
knew all about firtations, but really
she hadn't the nerve to sit at an open
window under the eyes of her neigh
bors and attempt Irritation with
clergyman and the pastor Of the church
she was soon to be a member of. If
she used her fan languidly, it was to
drive away the droning house flies; if
briskly, it was to warn darning nee
die or beetle to keep safe distance.
"WeresI to f1irt," added the widow
as she shook out her fan and smiled
coyly, 81 should do like this" -
And she went through such a series
of motions and gestures as no elder Of
that church had ever seen before, and
some Of them almost found themselves
trying to reply to the signals.
+, 'ffWell, Brother Harris, what shall
we do?" asked Deacon Spooner as the
widow retired.
Ill guess Angelina was mistaken
was the hesitating reply.
".And your?
81 guess was too. Yes, I'm willing
to sayI was and take it all back. I
hereby ask everybody to forgive me,
and I'll go home and box Angelina's
