How beautiful she was, with that
Queenly poise Of her young head con-
trasting so oddly with the pathetic
droop of her scarlet mouth. Chesters
eyes narrowed as he studied her.
Neaninglessly the dull sound of traf-
&c came up from the streets below.
"Where did the jasmine come from,
Doris?' he asked abruptly. The pene-
trating odor had suddenly made him
bark back to the day OF that pretty
little southern wedding in New Or
leans. when everything seemed crowd
ed with its perfume
A crimson flush surged into Doris
cheeks, then spread TO her broad.
sweet temples and dimpled chin.
THE jasmine" she echoed helpless
ly.
Yes; where did you get it?'
Still flushing. but silent she looked
down at the white waxen petals and
the shining leaves.
'Will you give me a nower? said
Chester curiously. She wrenched the
Jasmine from her girdle and impul-
sively rose from her chair.
Certainly" she said: take all Of il.
Take it as portion OF your fee.
You've told me what / can do: to-
morrow I'll drop in and tell you what
I want to do"
AS her hand touched his for a sec
ond she nodded whimsically toward the
Jasmine:
81 reckon this is the first time any
one ever paid you in such a romantic
fashion,"
When the elevator had taken her
down. Chester walked back to the
table and looked at the blossoms lying
there in all the stiff. white pride Of
their southern fragrance.
And I'd never guessed it." he COM

reflected logically. "or she wouldn't
have left me his gift" Just then the
door opened. 1t was Doris, more ra-
dainty lovely than he had ever seen
her.
whats that name children use for
one another when they take back
gifts, Tom? An Indian giver? Well,
you can use that name for me, be-
cause want these back" AS she
pinned the jasmine into her girdle
again her little gloved hand trembled
perceptibly.
Tell me. Doris" he said to her
commandingly as he arrested her a
second time at the door, what is the
meaning of this? As your cousin and
friend would wish to know, but as
your lawyer must know-I must"

How an Infant sehoe, Wa. Founded.

1t is well known that the Society of
Friends objects TO all war. This con-
scientious feeling has sometimes placed
individual Quakers in an awkward po-
sition.
For instance. during the war against
the first Napoleon n ship that was part,
ly owned by a Friend captured a Dutch
vessel The long continuance Of the
state Of war prevented him for several
years from compensating the owner
and sailors Of the seized vessel in ac-
cordance with Lis principles. In the
meantime he invested the money re-
ceived as lis share Of the prize. and
when at LIST peace was declared he
paid it over. with interest to date. to
those who had suffered by the capture
of the vessel
Not being able to find them all, he
founded with the rest of the money
free infant school in Amsterdam. this
being tie port from which the Dutch
ship had sailed The school was the
first Of the kind set up in the city. and
il was housed in a building called
HOLLANDS Welfare" which was the
name Of ;'c captured vessel.

Billy Patterpat was a block and a

the cowboys across the street brought
up memories of past experiences. and
his eyes had begun to grow troubled

Pretty soon the public will know
 how much If any effect the ordinance
 passed last March at the suggestion of Mayor Elton will have on the sporting
 element of Waterbury so far as deter
 ring them from shooting at random on
 the highways on the Fourth of July. It prohibits the discharge of firearms containing blank or ball cartridges on in any square. park. highway, or public walk within the limits of the city of Waterbury on the Fourth of July under penalty of not more than $50. When it was being acted upon in the alder manic chamber Mir Hewitt wanted to know why it wouldn't be good thing to amend 1t so that the order would apply to every day in the year. but his colleagues didn't see the point else they would have made the change and put the police in a position to stop a lot of annoyance that takes place on the streets a week or so prior to July 4. But 1t is a move in the right direction and the public will watch It's operation with considerable interest Water bury has had too many shooting acci- dents the past few years and it is the duty of the authorities to put stop to the business as soon as possible. If the present ordinance does not meet the case it can be improved from time to time until it is gotten into shape so that it will serve all practical purposes.
