The whole family was in ferment
about Mary. They took sides. head
ed by father and mother. In fathers
camp were the boys, while the girls
supported mother.
Mary was the youngest child in
family of seven. She had just come
home from college and her future
was before her. Father and the boys
wished to have her go abroad, mother
and the girls held out for society.
"She needs quieting down. Ethel
india said II saw her yesterday
romping on the tennis court with that
tow-headed youngster from the hotel
Mason, Jr.. matched her with the
statement, That's why she ought to

when she marries?" said voice
from the door.
There was chorus of "ohs" as
they all turned to look at her. She
wore white linen suit and scarlet
coat. Her fair hair was tied with a
black ribbon and a little three-cor-
nered hat was set jauntily on her
head.
Who's going to get married." she
asked as she came forward.
They began to talk of other things
hurriedly. 1t would never do for Mary

But in spite of themselves the CONVEX

NAUGHTY HOTEL WATERS
1t Is Not Easy to Get Even With Those
Who Are Arrogant and Of
fensive.

Some hotel walters long since grad
uated from the sphere Of usefulness
to one of arrogant haughtiness. There
are only two ways of getting even
with such a waiter.
The best way is to carry a club In
the right hand, concealed behind the
back Enter the dining room with as
much sang froid as may be assumed
without exciting suspicion. When
the waiter approaches with a look Of
scorn and contempt on his face give
him John Arthur Johnson punch with
the club. ::
Such course is likely to produce
more or less of sensation in we'll
regulated dining rooms, and some may
hesitate to adopt 1t on that account,
though they may rest assured that it
would meet with the. appreciation of all
other patrons Of the place. The only
alternative, If you feel that you must
even up the score, is TO leave the ho-
tel and never return TO Ii.
Usually ii is the head waiter who be-
comes afflicted with arrogance. He
meets you just inside the swinging
door and at one swift glance places his
estimate upon you.
Cheap skate" he says to himself.
Look at that necktie. will you, and the
way he combs his hair! III give him to
Clarence"
Being given to Clarence is the depth
of degradation. The table presided
over by Clarence is in a dark corner
and Clarence spends most of his time
in the kitchen with the chef and his
assistants. At the table with you sits
a man wearing rubber collar and an
other with uncombed hair, both of
them eating beefsteak and onions.
When you give your order Clarence
looks at you with whitening scorn.
Wouldn't it have been great pleas
ure to have seen double row of such
walters standing upon the mat at Reno
on July 4?-Richard S. Graves, Okla

she was going to marry the tow-head
ed young man. They stared at her
In dismay.
But you are going abroad, said
father and the boys echoed. You
are going abroad"
IL want you to see something of So
ciety," mother walled, and the gisls
chorused. Society" after her The
final decision was no! Mary, in tears,
said she would marry no other man.
Father and the boys and mother and
the girls agreed that either going
abroad or going into society would
cure Mary.
AT last Mary. very white and still,
said. Il love him. You want me TO
marry rich man But shall be un-
happy. DO you want me to be un-
happy?"
They looked at her, the beloved OF
all their hearth. And suddenly father
melted He held out his arms to
Mary, and she ran to him and hid her
face against his shoulder. Then moth
er gave in. and after mother. the boys
and the girls.
She shall marry whom she
pleases," they said. as Mary sobbed.
Wasn't Mary the youngest of the fam
lily. and hadn't they always let her
have her own way?
A little later their reward came.
The tow-headed young man called and
was received none too cordially. They
wanted Mary to be happy, but the tow
headed young man had not fulfilled
their ambitions
When be had stated his love for
Mary he gave general invitation:
Why can't all of you come over and
spend the summer with me-" Id
asked
"Spend--where? they asked in 4
bewildered chorus.
IL developed that the young man
had country place in England; he
had chateau in France. castle in
Spain and cottage at Newport. In
other words, the young man was very
rich. He had automobiles and an air
ship. and Mary took all this as a mat
ter of course.
Isn't he lovely?" she asked the
family when he had gone.
Lovely" they said. and looked at
each other. Then they laughed and

idea OF your travelling now. Wouldn't
you rather stay here and see some
thing of society,""
Mary shook her head. 81 don't like
society" she said
Father and the boys smiled. Then
you will go abroad" they demanded
breathlessly.
A cloud came over Mary's counte-
nance. II don't want to do any
thing" she said, but stay right here
and have good time"
The family exchanged glances. That
was exactly what they did not want
Mary to do. The tow-headed young
man from the hotel was entirely too
much in evidence. And they had am
billions for Mary.
1T seems such a pity" mother said
when Mary had gone off with father
and the boys, that Mary has no
worldly wiseness. She might marry
anybody"
Ethelinda and the other sisters.
who were not beautiful, and whose
matrimonial chances were limited
nodded eager assent. They were all
fond OF Mary and they all wanted her
to do well. What was the use of hav-
ing beauty in the family II she did
not live UP to her social opportuni-
ties?
Meantime. Mary was again playing
tennis with the towheaded young
man. She liked him very much. He
had kind eyes and a pleasant manner.
Mary was not sure whether she loved
him, out she thought it would not be
hard to do SO. Anyhow, she did not
want to go abroad or into society. for
IL seemed to her that these things
might separate her from the tow head
ed young man. She was sure that he
was poor, for he dressed very simply
and never talked of having things.
Mary's own family always talked of
having things. They made the most
of their little income Mary often
wished that there were more lamb
chops and less silver plate. She had
healthy appetite which demanded
plenty of bread and butter and less
formal service.
Therefore, she was pleased. when
after an exciting game. the tow-headed
young man suggested that they take
tea at an adjacent inn. Tea at that
Inn always meant plenty OF French
pastries, and Mary had little girls
love for sweets.
While they drank their tea. the
tow-headed young man asked Mary
to marry him and Mary said Yes"
He had such kind eyes and such
pleasant manner she said to herself
again. but she knew that was not the
only reason she cared. Some deeper
instinct told her that she had found
her mate.

steadily leave no doubt that the coun-
try is growing in population at a
rapid rate. The gains in some of the
cities are very notable, several of the
little places having made remarkable
advancement in the last ten years
This growth is really more significant
in various ways than the increases in
the larger cities, for it shows local
thrift and prosperity. Study of the
