THE TELEPHONE.

He came on Sunday, stating clearly
that he wished to see Miss Phyllis.
He heard voices in the parlor and de-
clined entering. Phyllis came down
stairs with her furs and hat on.
1T tempts me out of DOORS" she
said, ~ should have gone before if
l had not half expected you"
So they strolled down the street,
turning at Marergo avenue, where
the wide walk, the low boughs of
the pepper trees with the bright ber-
ries and the blossoms they had
learned to love would help her out a
little, this resolute maiden thought.
'Mr. Denton, perhaps I'm wrong.
II am, l shall be sorry did this.
IF I'm not l shall be glad, 1t seems
20 me that there must have been a
mistake somewhere. viii you tell

The walk did not need to be a
very long one. Very soon it devel-
Dped into somewhat merry one.
And the little scene in the library
hfterward was also n merry one.
The telephone once understood and
given its proper place, proved quite
the good fairy of the tale. To all

PHYLLIS.


Phyllis wrote long letters in which
she told in detail the events of her
every day to Harvard assistant,
who was some day to be a Harvard
professor, which would mean the be-
ginning of the coming true of some
dreams for Phyllis and the professor.
She leaned back in her chair now,
late at night, thinking about it; after
a bit her thoughts turned to this
strange affair of Ruth's, which had
naturally found its place in her pages.
Writing OF 1t had pushed her little
nearer to the point where she felt
that something ought to be done.
1t was very still through the house.
Suddenly she started and listened.
Ruth's room was next to hers. She
got up softly and put her ear to the
door. The noise was that of smoth-
cred sobbing.
Phyllis came hack to her desk,
pushed aside the thick envelope reso-
lutely, and after a moment of fierce
biting at the end of her pen, she took
a sheet of paper and wrote q short
paragraph in which was stated the
fact that they were to leave for the
East again Monday. She told Mr..
Denton that she would be pleased il
he cared to call before then.

Mr.. Foster, tall, thin, keen-eyed,
rose from the big leather chair in
which he had been comfortably smok-
ing, and, throwing down his cigar
stub grasped the arm Of the husband
heartily, saying:
swell, old man, your dinner was tip
top and the cigars even better. But

The husband drew aside the cur
tains which separated his den from
the larger rooms and they stood for
a moment in the door watching the
picture before them. On the sofa,

Ruth. She had just risen and the
fingers of her left hand still touched
the keys. Behind her were windows
through whose tiny diamond panes
the roses showed, seeming just now
to be blooming only for back
ground for her. She had been sing
ing wonderfully. 1t had excited her,
perhaps, for her checks were full of
color and her eyes strangely bright.
Mr.. Foster, Jr., whom Phyllis had en-
pected to entertain, sat beside the
piano with his chin propped by his
hand. His eyes were bent full upon
her.

New York-pre-eminent in most
things-is the greatest pumpkin pie
eating city in the world. During the
season. from September to February.
there are, on an average, more than
$1,000 pumpkin pies a day eaten In
that city. Estimating each pie to con.
tain Ave pieces, an army Of something
like $4,000 pumpkin eaters musteri
daily.
To make $4,000 pies q day requires
5000 pounds Of pumpkin and 10000
quarts Of milk. Such dry, prosaic and
exact things as figures are hardly In
keeping with the poetic pumpkin; but
II Is interesting to figure u the fact
that In the four months or 10 during
which the pumpkin pie flourishcs there
are about 1900, 900 pounds Of the fruit
used to make the pies which are eat
en- in that city, and a million and u
quarter quarts of milk. With a pencil
and an Imagination interesting figures
Of the consumption OF the United
