I'm sur he'd take you, too, if you
asked him"
mo, honey, II don't think so. |
don't expect to see the commodore
again; we've aren't friends n
more"
'Oh, auntier' exclaimed Willie, in
genuine dismay. And he's so good
too"
Willie thought for a minute that his
Aunt Marjorie was going to cry, and
then he was surprised to hear her say
in a tanner ~singularly unlike her
usual g%entleness. Maybe some peo-
pie think he is good, but l know his
true character, and | do not think you
ought to go around. alone with him.
This speech was rendered with all the
dignity that a woman of the world,
aged nineteen, could muster.
You went with him alone to lots
of places" complained Willie. you
went last night"
'Yes, and that's just the reason I'm
not going again. If Il man takes a girl
to a dance and forgets her he will GER
tainly forget a little boy when he takes
him to the circus, and then what would
happen to yOu?'
Really this was awful. Willie had
never seen his dear little aunt in such
a state, but she was very sweet to him
and took him out driving that after
noon. stopping in the village to buy
him candy and lots of fireworks for the
Fourth. He didn't know what to think
about his beloved commodore, but saw
him the next day and promptly repeat
ed the whole conversation. 1t seemed
to him the simplest way out of the diff
ficulty.
Did you forget, commodore?" he in
sisted.

SO Willie kept his counsel and was
petted much by his Guat.2 20" the next
two days. On the morning of the
Fourth he was firing off his crackers
from the open window in his lite
niGhtclothes at 4 o'clock. and Marjorie
said never a word Of complaint. She
had made up her mind to take him to
the circus herself and TO get away early
to avoid any possible coI..ict with her
former great friend. the c0.nmouorp-
now n stranger forever.
Before lunch was over, however, the
c~ommodore's touring car stopped ut the
door and the commodore WAS standing
on the porch, cap in hand. announcing
that he had come.
"Yes. | see" returned Marjorie cool
ly, but deliberately ayoi.in; his gaze.
Max had such II way of looking ut one.
But what for!"
"Why, to take my friend Julius Gaze

Willie locked a~nyiously from one to
the other in an ecstasy of hope and
suspense.

If you come. too. 1t will be all right"

A Queer WAGER.

There are men whose pride is in the
stole endurance Of acute discomfort.
They insist upon doing unpleasant
things in order to convince themselves
that they can do them. At Oxford
some years ago there was an eminent
Rugby football player whose passion
was to discover the most uncomforta-
bic things and then to do them. One
evening a humorist suggested that-as
beastly TO sit in Il cold tub all night
long. The %footballer at once offered to
wager that he could sit till morning
chapel time in his cold tub. And he
did it.-London Chronicle.

Willie sat on the steps in Il distinctly
unhappy mood. 1t was the first of
July, bright and beautiful. The garden
was abla2e with flowers and he could
pick as many as he wanted. His ball
and books and little fire engine lay on
the porch beside him, and his collie pup
was begging him to come and play, but
Whitehead no heart for any of these at

 The value of the saloon stock is probably about $1500 and of his real estate and other holdings 8, ,000. Arlington owns three business houses on Walnut street occupied by the Herald, s. Heine- mann and Farmers Bakery, a good cottage home in Chastain's addition and several small houses on Remmel Avenue. But against this property there are several mortgages to be paid, which will leave little from this source for his creditors.

To Be Permanent Train.

It nas been the custom of the Iron Mountain to take off the Hot Sprin4s special about this time each year, but it has vir- tually been decided that the train will remain in service through out the entire summer. The train has usually been put in commission about the 1st of Jan uary each year and has been patronized mostly by visitors to Hot Springs. The train has also been patronized to aconsiderable extent ir the St. Louis-Little Rock traffic, and the officials be- lieve that there will be enough travel between Little Rock and Hot Springs and St. Louis to justify the train remaining con- tinuously in service.
