Brown Eyes
or
BY Joseph A. P0ic0r

When Eloise's lover remarked that
he abominated blue eyes in women be.
cause they were often tricky and de-
%ceitful, 1t was not to be marveled at
that Eloise's big violet orbs widened
first in surprise, then in indignation
and finally In the worst sort of wound
ed love and pride. How did she know
that Royce was color blind?
She would not lower herself to de-
mand an explanation of Royce's rude
ness; that 1t was deliberate and cruel
was obvious. Furthermore, such an
observation could have been prompted
only by some hidden motive-whether
of resentment or pure malice she did
not know and did not care. The result
was the same, and self-respect left her
mo alternative but to break the en-
gagement at once and without the
abasement of words or a n This
she did by returning by express a dry
goods box full of the accumulated
presents of six months and the be-
itrothal ring by registered mall.
The frigid farewell she had accord
ed him the night before had prepared
Royce in part for what was coming.
But he felt very much like rubbing his
eye and pinching himself to see If he
were really awake or dreaming when
the blow actually fell. He had not
supposed for an instant that Eloise
would carry a petty fit of irritation to
such limits.
How had he offended her? They
had had innumerable differences dur
ing the brief period of their engage
ment, but these had been followed in
evitably by explanations and e~cstatic
adjustments. She was leaving no ave-
nue. open to him now. She had dis
missed him with a cold formality that
signifed one thing-she had made a
mistake In her choice and wanted it
reetified before 1t was too late. She
did not love him-that was manifest.
And nothing else mattered.
For a long time Royce sat In
thought. Should he go to her, force

The Falls City tribune., 1911-01-06

for some shadow of response from
Royce to the packages she had sent;
then, with q broken heart and a brain
teeming with reckless resolutions, she
began to take out her clothes and pack
them for the trip.
AT -four o'clock she suddenly remem-
bered that she had not time to write
and must send a telegram to her
friend stating when to expect her.
She ran to the telephone only to find
that it was dead" The nearest neigh
Dor was a block away, but that tele-
gram was essential, and, snatching up
a scarf, she wound 1t about her head
and hurried down to the Keleeys.
Anita Kelley met her at the door.
She wore a mammoth bunch of violets
In her belt, The odor of them came in
a sickening rush to Eloise's senses.
but she trampled down her feeling.
as she said, lightly:
What exquisite blossoms! Where
did you get them?"
The queerest thing" replied the
other girl. "A boy brought them up
about noon from Milford Royce. 1t
seems he's going off on a business trip
to be absent some time. But | can't
imagine why he should have sen me
the flowers except that we used to be
good friends and | had a sort of half
way engagement to go with him to the
opera next week. But of course you
know all about his going"
Hsnh--ar- ~ nnYrsn nrt
| came to ask the use of your phone
for a moment, dear. Ours Is out OF
order and I'm rushed to death to get
away on that six o'clock train for Gin
~cinnati."
Eloise never knew how she got
through with her message nor how she
got out of the house without betray-
ing herself. Anita Kelley! OF all
girls In the world she was the very
last she would have dreamed of as n
rival. A Jealous pang shot through
her; In a flash she remembered Mil
ford telling her once that Anita and
he were sweethearts in the boy-and-
girl days-and-and Anita had black
eyes! He had repented of his hasty
declaration of love to her and gone
back to his first choice.
Eloise staggered up the steps and
went blindly on to her unfinished pack
ing in the disordered room, every
nerve tingling with modification, the
outraged blood pounding in her tenn
pies.
At $50 she was ready for the jour.
ney. At 5:35 she stepped into a taxi
cab and was whirled toward the sta
ton. She took up her position in line
at the ticket office and waited impa-
tiently for her turn to come to secure
transportation and get aboard her
train.
As she turned from the window the
hot blood splurged to her cheeks; her
gaze trembled Overwhelmingly into the
earnest, all-at-onee e%ntreating eyes of
the man who had yesterday been dear
er than all others.
"Eloise!" The name escaped him
~inyoluntalily he took a quick step
toward her. every resolution of the
morning forgotten.
But the girl lifted her head with a
swift touch of dignity and passed hiln
with a cold nod of recognition. In a
second he was beside her. Her indif
ference maddened him. and casting
prudence to tho winds Royce blurted
out the FIRST thing Chat came into hts
thought.

Have you ever been bothered by the
cross lot fiend, the fellow who has nc
respect for your lawn or curb or lot!
He is much in evidence in Bedding and
ought TO be squelched. The Council
passed an ordinance recently making
it felony to cross peoples lawns,
curbs, lots, etc. but the work of mutila-
ton still continues. hope it will not
be necessary to arrest anybody to make
the in tent of this law plain to the cross
lot fiend.
School is out, and the little folks care
free are left to roam at will from pillar
TO post. Mothers did it ever occur 10
you that your neighbor may have
something for her kids to do besides
playing all the time. 1t is not bad
idea to know where the kids are al
least a part Of the time and you may
be able to help out little on the tir ed

public places but the poet has hit the
question fairly well in the following eff.
fort.
Girls Of bygone days wore hats;
Think Of 1.-THE stupid flats!
Styles so simple and so crude
We have hurled to desuetude;
Nowadays upon there heads
Women carry featherbeds,
Footballs, flowerpots, laundry bags,
Bales Of feathers and of rags;
Helmets, pie plates, butter tubs,
Jungle growths of trees and shrubs,
Dishpans, saucepane, jardiniers,
Sofa cushions, flights of stairs,
Baskets green and pink and brown,
Rightside up and up side down,
Pyramids and Effel flowers,
Buckets, barrels, hives for bees,
Boxes meant for fruit and cheese;
Drying pans with wires and Stats;
Anything, in short, but hats!
