THE KID

[Origiual.l
I was walking m the street with
Dick Norval, a young friend of mine
of twenty. A girl with her skirts at
the tops of her boots passed us and
with a smile.

home from church last night. Her
father stayed to help count the contri-
button"
There was something in the sweet
smile that the girl gave him to make
me feel as il I would like to punch his
head. Still, 1 was very fond of him.
though he was very "kiddish" himself.
"Who is she?' 1 asked.
"Grace Lincoln"
Eleven years passed. Dick Norval
had spent Ii greater part of the pc
Rod out Of my life. then came back N
to it again. He was dining with me
one evening, and l asked him why he
had not married. We were over our
coffee and cigars at the time. Dick
blew a smoke ring inc looked through
1t in a melancholy way into vacancy.
Had a disappointment" 1 asked
"TeIl me about it,
at don't mind" he said and gave me
the story.
"a good many years age, before ]
left this region, 1 used to know a very
young girl of the name of Grace Lin
colin"
1 had not thought of "the kid" for
years, but 1 remembered her and prick
ed up my ears.
when 1 first knew her / was twenty
and she was scarcely fifteen and Alto
gether too young for me. She went
away to school and to college and when
she came back was twenty-three, while
l was twenty-eight. There was a lot
of difference in her, though not a great
deal In me. In one respect l remained
precisely the same. 1 still considered
q girl from twenty to twenty-five about
the right age for me. 1 was thrown a
great deal with Grace Lincoln, and we
became fast friends. Her father had
grown YER rich, and h couid have
shone In society, but preferred to
devote herself to an object. She un-
dertook the dispensation Of the amount
her father set aside each year for char
ity, and, since she Investigated every
case thoroughly, the work took all her
time. Society tried hard TO get hold of
her, but she said she had no time to
give to it She was a very intellectual,
girl, and / was never better entertained
