Out in the moonlight, down in the pine
grove, Hannah walked with great
shawl wrapped close around her, for the
night was cool. She had seen what she
had seen, though she had held her peace
for her daughters sake, and it may be
she had noticed signs and tokens as well.
Ruth came and went in her accustomed
ways and did her accustomed duties, but
q mothers eye is keen. There was some
thing astir in the heart under that placid
face.
A figure came through the garden gate,

said to herself as she watched his friend

older than Ruth. Just so much older
had her husband been than herself.
Meanwhile Friend Wilson stated his
case, and Ruth, with a curious futter at
her heart went down the pine grove all
alone. calling softly. Mother, mother!

Then Hannah took Ruth's hand in

fondling word and pressed his lips upon

the mother laid her hand this time upon

SWEET Ruth.

Allen Weir, walking, whistling. along
| the country road, came to a dead halt,
whistle and all.
With his great sombrero of a hat, his
| somewhat careless attire and gait, he
presented a striking contrast to the OBJ
| ject of his attentiOn-a maiden in a soft,
gray dress. white neckkerchief and neatly
| folded hair.
Allen Weir was an artist and a young
, man and must be excused for staring,
for both nature and art pleaded for him.
However, he returned to a sense of the
proprieties before he had quite disgraced
himself.
No sooner had he reached his place of
destination, under a great oak tree, than
out came canvas and colors, and the in
defatigab BILE pencil toiled until the sunset
staid it.
1t was a pretty bit of form and color
| he left upon the canvas. l am sure there
was something deeper in it than color
and form, something more than pretty

and saw his subject" not watering

| lently, himself out of sight, and went back
once more and worked up the expression.
| The picture was a success, the greatest
| one Allen Weir had ever achieved. But
something about the affair was altogeth-
er unsatisfactory.
The evening found Allen Weir at the
Quaker farmhouse, with a pitiful story
| of fatigue. They were kindly people at
| the farm. If he was Sketching near the
place, they said, he must leave his port
| folio and easel there till morning. And
| his heart and step were very light as he
went his way, thinking of Ruth-that
| and peace and maiden love and limo

well.

he could call her so without offense.

| She looked up hastily. He had turned

| and looked upon her image with little
suppressed cry of wonder and delight.

MRS. STORMONT SUES.
CLAIMS She Was Deceived In a Real
Estate Deal

A sensational suit was filed in the dis
trict court late Wednesday afternoon
by the attorneys for Mrs. Jane c. Stor-
mont against N. B. Campbell, a loan
agent, to set aside deed to real estate
in Topeka on the grounds that Mrs.
Stormont was defrauded in the pur-
chase.
The petition reads as follows:
s'That on or about the 14th day of
May, 1900, the said N. B. Campbell who
assumed to be the friend and adviser of
said plaintiff, represented to said plain
tiff that certain real estate situated in
the city of Topeka could be purchased
from Mary D. Holiday at a great bar
gain for the sum of $1,000 in cash and
that he, the said defendant, would fur
nish and pay one half of said sum which
he represented was necessary to procure
and purchase said real estate if she, the
said plaintiff would furnish and invest
the other half of the sum of $4,000 and
that one half in value of all said real
estate would be conveyed to said plain
tiff and the title thereto placed in her
name of record.
.sThat the said plaintiff at the time
was ignorant of the real and true mar
ket value of said real estate and relied
upon and believed the representations
so made to her by said defendant, N. B.
Campbell. That so relying upon and
believing said repreSen tatiOnS and with
out any further information or knOwl-
edge concerning any of the matters here
in before alleged the plaintiff at the
special instance and request of said
defendant, N. B. Campbell, placed in his
hands 81 500 in cash for the purpose OF
investing the same in said real estate.
That on the same day at the special re-
quest of said defendant the said plaintiff
loaned to the said defendant the sum
of $500 in cash, the defendant agreeing
to repay the same within a day or two.
Plaintiff further alleges that at the
time said defendant, n. B. Campbell,
procured and obtained from her the sum
of 50, 500 and the said sum of $500 that
he well knew that he could and 1t was
then his intention to purchase all the
said real estate hereinafter described
from the owner thereof for the sum OF
$500 in cash"
The property spoken Of is lots num-
Der 266 to 2SS Fillmore street and lots
Nos 1862 to 367 Western avenue. The
petition claims that Campbell had no in
tention of paying any of his own money
for the lots and that Mrs. Stormont has
been deceived and defrauded.
MIR. CAMPBELL SILENT.
N B. Campbell has a real estate and
insurance office at Cos Kansas avenue.
When asked about the suit he said; Il
now nothing about it except that saw
a notice that the suit had been filed.
