The Painting Of Satan.

BY ETHELYN LESLIE HUSTON.
(Copyright, 1901. by Daily Story Pub. Co)
Although the rest of the guests-of
the gentler sex-at the Hotel Helene
sometimes said unkind things about
Mrs. Weston. that lighthearted little
lady was. perhaps. like certain per-
son not mentioned in polite society, not
quite as black as she was painted. 1t
Is true she did like to talk to interest
ing men. whether they happened to be
married or not, and the men. interest
ing and otherwise, liked very much to
talk to her. And when Mr.. Hartleigh
began to show distinct preference for
her society in that lazy hour or two
after dinner while digestion went COM
fortably on to the soothing strains OF
the mandolin orchestra, Mrs, Weston
took 1t as matter of course.
The Hartleighs had always shown
their fondness for each other as much
as good breeding would permit and to
the casual observer, there was no
change In their mutual regard. But
Mrs. Weston scented trouble through
her high-bred little nose as accurately
as thoroughbred racer sniffs danger
borne to his quivering nostrils op the
summer breeze.
And when Hartleigh brought his in
dolent post-prandial revolutions to an
anchorage beside her chair, she re-
ceiyed him with the tact that questions
lot, but waits. And such tact is worth
unminted gold to women, II they but
knew it. A few do.
So, one evening, she learned all
about it, She knew that Hartleigh was
pot in love with her, and she knew
hat Hartleigh's wife. under her usual
gently gracious air, was fretting about
he intangible something that had
hust its BanQuo-ghost into their hap
ness.
That evening when Hartleigh made
come reckless statements to her about
her irrisistable attractions generally
and his appreciation thereof. and all
the rest Of 1t. Mrs. Weston nodded her
sensible little head and assumed an
ar Of fitting gratitude for the compli
nent paid her, and then faltered. with
becoming touch of hesitation, and a
quite fetching little quaver in her soft
Voice" Observation-Disclosures"
Hartleigh tossed his cigar behind the
gas-log Of the big fireplace and said,
with gloomy irritation:
oh. she doesn't care. The best OF
US are conceited beggars. you know.

to say so. The woman must take the
initiative in thing of that sort"
Mrs. Weston niDbled the edge OF her
fan and the muscles around her pretty
mouth twitched. Hartleigh had en-
tirely forgotten, in the unburdening OF
his sick soul, that he had declared n
deep and abiding passion for Mrs.
Weston but five minutes before. and
was plunged in gloomy reverie. Mrs.
Weston pressed the fan sternly against
her rebellious lips, and finally turned
toward him a face Of becoming grav-
ity.
perhaps it is not as bad as it looks, "
she said seriously. we may prove
an alibi yet Go away now, and give
Mr.. Stanton your seat You have been
talking to me long enough, and the
tabbies are looking unutterable things
my way"
Thus while she talked sweetly to the
enraptured Stanton. her busy and
clever brain was at work on the Hart
leigh problem. She was unshaken In
her belief that Mrs. Hartleigh was in
love with but one man, and that man
was Hartleigh. Consequently. that let
ter-or portion of letter-that Hart
leigh had accidentally seen, must have
some explanation. But how to get at
it?
It is a thankless task to try and SET

d. W. Blaine of Pratt writes to tho
Capital that the movement to secure a
special rate for 10000 harvest hands to
take care OF the great wheat crop Is
booming, says the Topeka Daily Capt.
tal Mr.. Blaine and others will go be-
fore the Western Passenger associa-
tion TO ask for n special rate OF one
cent per mile from the Mississippi
river. The estimate OF 10000 hands Is
made from a canvass OF farmers by
school districts. The crop in the
wheat belt will be 25 per cent heavier
than that of last year. Mr.. Blaine
says: 1T is necessary for those who
need extra help to make an early esti-
mate OF the probable number OF men
needed; also to join in n petition ask
ing that the railroads grant a harvest
hand rate. Last year we were granted
n rate of one cent per mile from Mis-
souri, river points to the wheat belt in
