The effect was obtained in the time
honored fashion of firing into the air q

when powder alone was used.
On this day tiny bit of the wadding

children. It Is comforting to know
that our great example is worthy Of

body cleaned house in tho morning,
with Just time for Z hurried lunch be-

was over nll but two Of the boys were

"E 112" was worthy OF his worship.
Even the box ofice boy had conflded
to Calkins. the manager, that It was
"A dead swell dame who took up tho
seat for Tuesday mats" and the man
ager had condescended to approve the
statement though Calkins' own pref

dark hair Of the soft, wavy kind that
makes a fellow long to stroke softly.
But Billy remembered nothing but
her eyes after he had received one d.

liquid depths clear down into the IN
troubled soul beyond.
Every Tuesday afternoon the girl
occupied the same seat The Century

and as the heavy battens from which
the scenery was hung came crashing
to the stage one man sprang to his feet.
He was sitting in the fourth row, and
in fash Billy realized that should
this man break the order of departure
there would be a crush in which many
would be hurt.
Billy still carried his now useless
tray. and quick as fash he pretended
to stumble and fall against the panic
stricken man. In falling he thrust the
fellow back into his seat. and the ice
cold water drenched the mans face
and neck and trickled down inside Of
his clothing.
Those near By laughed. and the
crowd, which had been upon the verge
of q panic, cooled down. The panic
was ayerted.
But Billy had slipped on one Of the
thick tumblers rolling under his feet.
In an instant he was on the noor OF
the aisle on top Of the clutter Of bro

badly cut before the girl In IT 112"
