as much as you please"
It's my-my nose," sobbed Tessie; lit

and big and lonesome, and | miss gran and
Chloe and poor Lie so much. Oh, | wish
was home at dear old Moss Manor again! Oh,
my nose! | believe I've broken it, Trix-my
poor nose!'
And then Trix, who knew the pain was a
great deal more in Tessie's heart than her
nose, bathed that much abused feature in ice
cold water, and smoothed the soft, fair hair
back from the hot young brow, and soothed
and ooddled and comforted her homesick sis
ter until Tessie fell asleep.
But for Trix herself there came no such
speedy iorgetfulness. Aunt Prue was wise
this evening, and long after the sun went
down behind the old church tower, and the
little bird that had its nest in the upper
branches of the walnut tree had chirped its
vesper hymn, Trix sat by the window, her
black eyes fixed upon the starlt sky that
arched her new home.
She did not cry. 1t was very seldom in

storm "TriX doesn't mean that everything

dull after dear old Moss Manor, and We don
deess! DC g. see the soldiers today very mu'h' IN
1T is quite useless to say anything more,
Therese. l have told you no! And what L

And Aunt Prue turned from the room, leav-
ing Trix standing by the dining room window,
with an angry light in her black eyes that
Tessie knew meant mischief.
Il wouldn't mind, Trix," said the little
peacemaker, stealing up to her. sisters side.
There will be big crowd, no doubt, and we
might get lost or hurt"
Il do mind!" said Trix, impatiently, shak-
ing off the little hand from her arm: IF you
like being cooped up this way, like a sick
chicken, | don't. And I'm not going to stand
it. either!'
What are you going to do, then, Trix"
asked Tessie, in low, frightened voice.
"I'm going to see the parade!" replied Trix,
with a defiant toss of her head;
oh no PE%s sSn & Pfifd Gfs Tss
you know; and this isn't our own dear old
home and there are cannons, and guns, and
firecraclers going off all the time. Oh, I'd
be frightened to death i you went by your
self! i would, indeed, Trix!'
And Tessie chung, tremblingly and half cry
ing to her sisters arm.
'You are such little goose, Tess" said
Trix, softening at sight of the distressed face.
"Aunt Prue can twist you into anything she
pleases. won't go to the parade if you're
going to make such a fuss about it. Let us
20 take walk in the square; there is no
harm in that"
And the two sisters ran up into their own
room to tie on their black straw hats for a
walk in the dull old square, every path Of
which they had trodden and retrodden for the
last three weeks, until they were tired of the
straight rows of trees and sun-scorched gravel.
But pleasant surprise awaited them this
morning. Leaning against one of the old
poplars stood familiar form, gorgeously ar,

deed, that those bright, fearless eyes were
moist with any such tender dew; but her
young heart was aching with bitter pain to
which tears like Tessie's would have been
sweet relief.
She thought of the dear old home, and the
dear old life, and the dear old love that was
forever gone, and the present, to her utterly
cheerless and desolate.
Poor gran dear, darling old gram" she
whispered, looking up to the sky, whose gold
Ell gates had opened for the dear old grand
mother only week ago. ,''Fll try to be good
even here for your sake; but it's going to oe
bard-I know it's going to be hard"
And Trix did not find herself agreeably mis-
Prue, who had lived by clockwork all her life,
dreamed that the ways of her strictly regu-
lated household could be to the two restless
little girls whom she had caught like wild
birds on the wing.
Through the long bright summer days, life
at the old mansion in Trevor Square went on
in dull routine that was almost maddening.
The rising bell changed out at the same hour
every morning At eight precisely Aunt Prue
took her place behind the coffee urn in the
sic, in neat plaid ginghams, ON each side of
the table, and James, in his funereal black,
at the foot.
There was an hour for reading an hour for
writing, an hour for sewing in the morning
for Miss Talbot was improving her nieces'
minds until school opened in autumn-an hour
for luncheon, an hour for a walk on the som
bre paths of the city squares.
Trix and Tessie had never realized before
how many hours went to make summer day
the day that at Moss Manor seemed only
one long sunlit stretch.
For nearly three weeks everything went on
smoothly enough. Aunt Prues wards felt too
strange and depressed to object in any way
to her rules. Then came the Fourth Of July,
and with it the sleepy old city woke up from
it's summer nan. ElapS waved and cannon
thundered and Trix, who had never seen or
heard anything OF the sort in her lie, began
To feel her fathers soldier blood stirring in
her veins.

Cant we 20 down to the parade, Aunt
Prue?' she asked, with eager eyes. here
are three regiments going to turn out, James
says, and"
IL think that l have expressed my d,sap'
probation of your manner to James more than
once, Beatrix," was Aunt Prue's frigd answer.
"You have acquired a bad habit OF frlendll-
ness and soeiability with servants which must
be broken off at once. No, you cannot go to
the parade. 1t is no place for you. There IS
always n noisy, commonplace crowd on such
occasions, with which | would not wish you
to mix. A true lady always avoids scenes OF
public excitement"
But l am not u lady yet,"' said Trix, impa-

Aunt Prue. II would be very glad, indeed,

VETERANS REUNION
 IS ON AT MERIDIAN
CITY IS ALIVE WITH VISITORS AND THE MEETING PROMISES TO BE ONE OF THE GREATEST SUCCESSES IN HISTORY.

Meridian, Miss, September 25.-(Special) The state reunion of Confederate Vet erans will be convened in this city to- morrow morning at o'clock at the court house for a session of two days. Tonight Meridian is swarming with Confederate Veterans from every part of the state, and the city has assumed an air of gaety, every business house and many residences being appropriately decorated with the national colors and the colors of the Con- federacy. The reunion promises to be one of the greatest successes in the his tory of the organization, as the people of Meridian have subscribed most lberally for the entertainment of the visitors.
 News was received in Meridian today that the postoffice at Lauderdale was robbed Monday night of $200 in cash and S2Oc in stamps by cracksmen, who blew open the safe in the office. Four un- known white men are suspected of having committed the theft, and every possible effort is being made to locate them. The men were in town a few hours before the theft, and were seen no more after it's discovery.
