 Patricia and the professor were the Inst to leave the breakfast table
 "So Mary Morris and willston arc engaged" the professor remarked oEverybody is talking about It."
 Patricia looked up at him, startled.
 "why, it's a secretr'
 The professor shrugged his shoul- ders. Nothing Is a secret when 1t Is once told, and the news came from our londlady"
 Mrs. Murdoch? Why, I told Mrs. Murdoch" Patricia confessed. "She asked me such direct questions that I couldn't easily evade, but l never dreamed she would tell"
 And Mary Morris never dreamed that you would tell" the professor re- marked. That's the way all gossip begins"
 q think" said Patricia, flaming, "that you are very unpleasant to call it gos- sip.'
 "DO you know lhe name we u'lNe IOE little girls who talk too much| he asked her gravely.
 She shook her head.
 "Tattie-tale," he told her.
 "Oh," she flung out, "how rude you areP' Then her lip quivered. 'You are horrid to make me so uncomfortable~ When Patricia's lip quivered 1t was time for a mere man to lay down his weapons, and the professor was be- ginning hurrledly, q didn't mean" when Mary Morris appeared at the door
 "Oh, Patricia" she reproached, "did you tell Mrs. NIurdoch?"
 'Yes," Patricia admitted, q did, but didn't think she would repeat 1t, Mary"
 And I didn't think you would" Mary condemned. q thought you could keep a secret, Patricia"
 "Oh, Marry Patricia's tone was dis tressed.
 q thought I could trust you, Patri- cia." And away she went, and Pa trlcia delivered a passionate opinion to the professor
 Nobody seems to think that should have had to lie to evade Mrs Mur-

Pauicla'g eyes were shining. "oh," she said, "how good you were to de- fond me before all those peopleP
 "It wnsn't entirely uuselish," the professor admitted, T hoped might win forgiveness"
 And Patricia accorded 1t, and they Wens for e walk together in the beauty oe tho autumn twilight, and when they came back they were engaged.

 Patricia's eyes flashed their delight but her lips were mutinous.

citement lent to her cheeks when she came in to the Sunday dinner a red ness that was increased by the warmth of the day.
 This Sunday meal was 9 dinner tp conjure with. The boarders ate and praised, and Mrs, Murdoch was just leaning back in her chair when the husband of the lady who wore the red tea gown burst upon the scene
 He went straight up to Mrs. Mur- doch and thundered, ''whQt baye you been saying about me to my wifel'
 Mrs. Murdoch turned pale. Never before had her sins of gossip been brought home to her. Nothing" sho stammered.
 "You have told enough to make her unhappy, to make her accuse meme. What right had y0p2"
 Mrs. Murdoch took refuge in the eI- cuse of the weak. "Well. was told"-
 "who told you?" His black eyes swept the board,
 The eyes of the six spinsterD met bis serenely, Not from them had come tPe first telling Of the tale.
 But Patricia flushed, as the innocent will at times with the memory Of for, mer sins upon them. The flush caught Mrs. Murdoch's desperate eye.
 Ut seems to me that heard 1t from Miss Patricia" she murmured.
 "Ohw Patricia gasped, but before she could say more the professor was on his feet. sEu g,
 q think you must take that back, Mrs. Murdoch" Bis voice was stern. Miss Patricia is incapable of such e thing. think every one here will agree to that"
 "Wen,n Mrs. Murdoch eyRded, +yOu know she told me about Mary @orris' engagement"
 Because you wormed It out of her, and she was too truthful to be able to evade"-the professors tones cut like steel-"and I am sure that if this gen tleman will investigate the stories he has heard he will find that. your source of information was outside of the house, but that within the tale has been spread by you, and you alone.
 "And now," he proceeded, tI would suggest that you apologize to Miss Patricia at once or shah feel com pelled to give you noeSce, and am sure that others will follow. One can not afford to live where one is likely to be held up In this way"
 Mrs. Murdoch's eyes glanced. warIy about the table, saw that popular opinion was with the professor and surrendered.
 "Oh, of course" she said, "I .Was mistaken. It wasn't Misa Patricia"
 Thank you," the professor said gravely, "and now, as we have only our cofIee to foregO, I would suggest that your boarders withdraw while you satisfy this gentleman as to the source of your information" ,
 He stalked out at the head of a long line, consisting Of Mary Morris and willlston and the six spinsters and, at the very end, Patricia.
 When they reached the hall there was little hubbub of comment and of laughter, under cover of which the professor said to Patricia, "Pd have knocked her down if she had been a man." ..-. V. .----

A Pessimist's View,

The pessimist is wont to say that H.
most human beings the bad in nature
predominates because they judge peo-
pie by appearances. Just as they meet
them mostly with their bad foot for
ward. and they spread this idea with
yehemence. but a normal mind when il
judges charitably will see that the pes
simist is wrong. A nature that some
times appears vicious and thoughtless
may on careful inspection be found to
be capable of noble deeds and it only
required a reminder of what life really
means to shed light on a benighted
mind and lead it to paths of virtue
For an example a woman in Sioux
Falls, S. D.. who had been leading Il
reckless, thoughtless life for many
years, bartering and bargaining for
that which should be sacred, after see
ing "A Woman of Mystery sold all
her belongings, closed her den Of in
fanny to start life anew, and "A Wo-

OF the correct amount. He said most
of the short weight packages contain
ed about 20 pounds. This is about ten
percent below what the weight should
be. In other words, the consumer is
being cheated out of about ten per-
cent of the flour he is paying for.
Reply Of the MiiIers.
When some of the miliers were ask
ed why their flour packages were
short In weight they replied that it
was probably due to the drying out OF
the flour after it was packed. They
said flour does dry out, and that the
absence OF the moisture makes the
flour lighter in weight.
H. E. Barnard, state food and drug
commissioner has informed these mill
ers that they must make allowance
when they pack their flour for the
shrinkage in weight by reason OF the
drying out process. He says the pur-
chaser must get what he pays for.
Another matter that has come to
light, especially in the northern coun-
ties of the state. is the shortage in the
weight of butter. The inspectors have
found that some of the butter makers
have reduced the size and weight OF
their pounds" to q very large extent.
and they say this is done because OF
fierce competition among the butter
makers.
A offers butter at a price below
what B can sell It for To meet this
competition B reduces the size Of his
pound" rolls and reduces the price
accordingly. Then A. comes back and
cuts another piece off the size of the
roll and further reduces the price.
This has resulted, in some of the
northern counties OF the state, in
pound" rolls of butter being offered
for sale which do not contain more
than twelve ounces.
At the same time. Mr.. Barnard says,
many people believe they are getting
a full pound and do not know the diff
ference. They are being cheated. and
he proposes to use the law on the men
that do it. He advises housewives to
keep a pair Of family scales and use
them on about everything they buy to
make sure that they are getting full
weight.

IHEAItR WILL Open
No Material Damage Done to
Structure by Recent
Accident.
NO FAULT IN THE BUILDING

The accident at the New Murray
theater this week will in no way inter
fere with the opening OF the play
house. No material damage was done
to the building by the falling of the
large electric sign which Sign Painter
Swain was putting in place. Only a
portion of the coping at the top Of the
building. and above the roof was torn
away. Contractor Poss sent for brick
layers this morning and the coping
will be rebuilt at once.
After an inspection il has been
found that the accident was due to
the improper method used in hoistins
the heavy sign. The block and tackle
was not properly anchored and the en-
tire weight of the sign was on the
coping. The coping. like all such. in
no way supports the roof and hence
is of light construction.
The other walls, and in fact every
part Of the New Murray. according to
the State Factory Inspector. is solidly
and we'll constructed. The Indiana
theater laws are very strict, and Mr..
Murray in erecting his building had to
comply with them. The inspector was
here during the course Of constructor
and placed his o. X. on all the work
done.
AS soon as Mr.. Murray secures an
other sign 1t will be properly hung
The opening Of the theater will take
place next Monday as announced

Pittsburg, Oct. 7.-Pittsburg last
night practically abandoned business

Through the courtesy OF the officials
of Greater Pittsburg, Forbes Field is
being enlarged to take in a section OF
Schenley park. city property. Bleach
ers are being erected on the park
slope, and this, in a great measure,
will eradicate the application Of ground
rules during the championship games
Premiums on seats at Fridays and
Saturdays games are being offered on
the streets.
The entire Pittsburg team is not in
the best possible condition. Pitcher
Camnitz may not work. as he is suf
fering fom quinsy With only one da;'
intervening before the battle is begun
interest is becoming keen.
One Of the pleasures of the post-sea,
son series in Pittsburg is the fact thai
the local games will be decided in the
greatest ball park in the country. Ev-
cry preparation has been made to make
the 100000 grounds adequate for
handling the anticipated record-break
ing crowds. Over a score of street cal
lines run to Forbes Field and special
schedules are to be arranged. In ad
dition, the Pennsylvania and Baltimore
and Ohio railroads are in position t.
take passengers within a few minutes
walk of the park.
A number of out-of-town spectators
arrived here today. The main body is
expected tomorrow. All the celebri
ties Of the baseball circle will be here
together with many thousand baseball
enthusiasts.
