Il Is as dull In the National Capital
as Il Is hot and the hotels as well as
those who rent rooms and accOmmO-

Inauguration days are regarded as Op-

all indications are that the regular

THE BROKEN
VASE
By MARCELLEE NDICOTT.


Leila Matthews had no present
worth mentioning and very little past.
She took an intelligent, conscientious
view of life and had a rescuing sense
of humOr. When she left Mt. Hope,
Arkansas, to take the place Of Latin
teacher in one of the questionable
New York schools everybody had
thought her a lucky girl. She bore
the fatal reputation Of being clever
and artistic-that is to say, she had
the ability to appreciate things that
in the natural course of events she
would never have the opportunity to
enjoy. Wherever she went she ere
ated that sympathetic atmosphere en-
couraging to the peoples vanity, which
aided her even IL crudely sociable Mt.
Hope.
Size had always lived with her aunt
and cousins, and she sent the nasal
voiced old lady, whom she tenderly
loved, a monthly remittance from her
earnings.
Ever since she could remember, with
the exception of a single year, she had
led the d%eadening life of Mt. Hope.
When she was a flower of a girl, Is or
Whereabouts, she spent a year in New
York and abroad as companion to an
old a]ristocrat, who realized the girls
Unborn gentility, and loved her.
Her mother had been a Boston WON.
an, her father a rich mine owner who
lost his fortune at a single venture

and in~considerately died before he had
a chance to retrieve it. The mother
did cot survive long, and Leila, then
a baby of five, was left destitute. A
poor relative, her fathers aunt, adopt
ed the orphan, and devoted herself to
the child.
When Leila returned from Europe
she brought back with her a gold cross
that she always wore, a tender letter
or so, and the memory of a few bliss
full hours when her hand had rested in
his. There was ever a rapture, albeit
brOken-hearted, that the finely bred
New Yorker had cared for her in a
negligent, summer fashion, and in I'M
guarded moments had said impetuous
things.
She had been thankful since her
stay in New York that she had never
CHANGED upon her former lover. She
was moderately happy in her work,
her sense of fulfilled duty, and her ia
cile talent for absorbing what was
healthy in character and comforting in
nature and circumstance. She finished
each day with the same thanksgiving
for the happiness of the past, and the
same prayer for the man, alive OF
dead.
One day, one dark afternoon, when
she was at the Lenox library taking
notes for her class, she saw him. He
was slightly older looking, the chin
surer, the bearing more distinguished
than formerly, but the sensitive lips
were unchanged. He had the unmis,
taxable poise of a man secure alike of
his grandfather and his investments,
| two unrivaled means of confidence.
! She had not heard of the man since
his marriage, when she sent his fiancee
a brooch, a crown of pearls, as a wed
ding gift. Heaven knows what months
she had worked on articles for the
Mt. Hope Courier to pay the jeweler;
then the faded neckties she had worn
and the hats retrimmed three seasons
with the same dismal perpetual VIC
lets! She had written a short note
accompanying her present:
will Miss Van Dyck accept a SOU
venir, q very small souvenir, from me?
| have the pleasure of knowing Mr..
| Markham and wish to offer some gift
to show how pleasantly | recall his
courtesies, etc.,"-a thoroughly polite
| note expressed with impersonal for
mality, as if pearl crowns were an
| everyday occurrence; as if she were
not writing with her hearts blood.
The man was rather surprised. and
sent it to Helen Van Dyck, his fiancee.
She wore it several times and later
on gave it TO her French maid-Hen.
rietta did her hair so cleverly, and
she had a fable for pearls. q,
Markham strolled into the library as
Leila was leaving. She attempted to
walk away u~nobserved, but his eyes
fastened on her questioningly, then
| cleared with recognition.
