"He's waiting for them to come
now. But he won't run away. I
know Tom enough for that. /
wanted him to come himself and tell
you all about how it happened, but
he just couldn't. You know, Ina,
he's cared for you ever since you
were running up and down Main
street on bicycle eight years ago,
hair flying and laughing over your
shoulder at some one. When he
came out of high school / went down
and talked to Mr.. Carey at the bank.
/ used to 90 to school with Tip
Carey years ago, and | didn't mind a
bit asking him to give my boy a
chance. He started Tom in right
away and he was doing well and
satisfied until"
II came along" Ina spoke bitter
ly. 1t was true in way. She loved
pretty things around her. She had
told Tom she wouldn't marry him
until he could take her to her own
home. She didn't want his mother
to live with them. She was old
fashioned and just funny little old
lady. Ina's father had been sheriff
in Harbor View, and even county
treasurer before he died. She was
stenographer at the hotel now, but
no one except herself knew the air
castles she built at her desk. Tom
had not usually been included in
them. 81 suppose he blames me for
everything. How much did he
take?"
The old lady pinched her lips to-
gether again as if she had suffered
quick pain, but her eyes were wide
and placid.
"About five hundred, ell told. He
took it out Friday and wired it east
and expected to put it right back
by Monday, He says he figured he'd
clear enough, to start in housekeep-
ing right away, and get you the
piano, too"
Ina put her hands over her face.
The tears were coming faster She
had wanted the piano, and suddenly
she remembered the look on Toms
face when she had told him she could
have a piano in every room if she
married Owsley Rawlins, the hotel
keeper.
'Tf he doesn't put in any defense,
how-how long will he be sent
away?" she asked.
at depends. He Just wanted me
to tell you he did it so he could have
! things nice for you"
Ina knelt beside the little figure
in black, her arm around Toms
mother.

''Why didn't he come himself?"
Mrs. Ellis puckered her lips at
the challenge in the girls tone. She
smoothed out her gloves on one
knee and smiled doubtful, visit
full little smile.
"He didn't think you'd ever want
a see him again"
81 didn't-for a moment" The
tears fickered on the long, dark
lashes before Ina could stop them
She stood over near the open win7
dow, looking out at the pretty gar
den and the old Roman seat at the
turn of the walk where Tom had
frst told her he loved her the best in
the world. She thought of that

"I'll go with you and see hin"
she whispered.
'Land, child, you needn't" pro-
tested Mrs. Ellis, kindly. "We1l get
along. Tom don't expect to hold you,
Of course. He's made a mistake, but
he's going to stand by it and do what
he can to make up. But he knows

her wide-brimmed hat, her pretty
face tear stained and determined,
her lips pressed together frl.ly.
"He did it for me and Pm glad he
hasn't run away"
The streets were dark as they hur-
ried along. Down at one cross street
Ina saw the lights around the hotel
They seemed to throw out radius
of brightness like lure 70 the love
of luxury in her heart. She slipped
her arm around Toms mother and
bent her head to the keen autumn
wind that brushed by them.
There was somebody waiting in
the shadow of the porch when they
came to the Ellis cottage. Ina hard
ly noticed it. Straight into the hall
she went and turned into the dining
room. There was no light. She went
to the old-fashioned sofa and knelt
beside it, her face pressed to Toms
rough, curly hair.
"Dear, I've come" she whispered.
"And don't you care. Tiff you have
to go away for it, Tom, I'll stay
here with your mother, and wait"
Sand you still love me?" He sat
up, haggard and helpless. "After

"Your mother says it's poor love
that can't stand the first good puff
of trouble, and she loves you, Tom"
Behind them sounded cough,
very low and discreet. In the shadow
doorway stood Mrs. Ellis, her
widows bonnet of, her chin bit
appraised.
'srom, lad, Mr.. Carey's asking If
you could start in at the bank fresh
by Monday. He's taking little
mortgage on the house to oblige me,
and there won't be anything said
about the shortage. It's paid now"
Tom stood up, tall and square
shouldered in the little room. Ina
was close in his arms
an be there, mother" he called,
clearly.

PAPER BAG DISHES.

For those who delight in the favor of fish, there is no more agreeable way of serving them than when cooked in a paper bag. The bag must not be an ordinary, but one made for the purpose of the tough fiber paper especially prepared for such cook ing.
 One might have a paper supper. pa Der table cover or doilies and napkins. paper candlesticks and shades, paper favors and paper flowers for deeora- tion. This would be especially appro- priate for a paper wedding anniver- sary.
 The cocktail may be served in tiny paper bags torn open to show their contents, the salad in paper cases and the meat and fish in individual bags. piping hot, or a larger bag with the whole serving on a platter.
 Halibut seasoned with tomato, lem on juice and butter will come out after fifteen minutes in hot oven, swimming in its own juices and most delicious to the taste.
 Apple dumplings baked in paper bag are elevated from common dish to a creation. Served with a sauce made of half cup of softened butter. a cup of powdered sugar, teaspoon of vanilla and half a cup of whipped cream, if it is handy, will be ambrosia fit for the goddess.
 Salisbury s.eaks.-Put round steak three times through the meat chop Ter. to have it we'll cut; mix with melted butter. salt and lemon juice, using ones own taste in regard to the amount used and depending upon the amount of meat. Pat out into long fiat cakes and put into a wellgreased paper bag to bake just ten minutes in a hot oven. Serve with baked po- tatoes.
 Green bananas unpeeled, adding little water to the bag, will bake nicely in twenty 10 twenty-five min utes ard are delicious accompani- ment to the steaks with little lemon and melted butter poured over them.
 When baking small fillets of meat or biscuits, a griddle cake turner is an indispensable utensil in putting things into the bags for cooking.

When Portugal Was Great.

The announcement that Portugal is to be linked up by 'wireless" with all the Portuguese colonies" is a remind CT of the vanished greatness of what was once the leading coloni4ing em- pire in the world. From Lisbon ln the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries went out marines through the un- known and uncharted oceans to Af- rica, India and the New World to the west, and planted the flag of Portugal in every corner of the globe. But ia Africa alone has Portugal maintained its hold of colonies of any magnitude. In India are little bits of Portuguese territory, Nova Goa, southeast or Bombay. being the capital of all Portuguese colonies east Of Cape or Good Hope; while as far east as China the island of Macao. in the Canton river. first colonized nearly 400 years ago, still owns the sovereignty or the government at Lisbon.

pany roam through the old house vita it's art treasures still on the walls. Art ist- from all quarters of the world have left their work here, the walls Of the entire house are picture gallery never to be forgotten. There are all kinds of pictures-landscapes flowers, symboli- cal nude figures and wonderful ehara- eatures.
 The light was fading rapidly when we left Pegano's bnl there was enough left to visit the shops and buy some thing, that unfailing practice of the American woman, wherever she may find herself.
 The next day, unhappily our last in Capri, was spent in driving to Anna Capri and the Pieela Marina. fere-a of the donkey had arranged that her husband should drive us, and appear ed with him and a companion early in the morning, each making a brave showing with his neat little Victoria and sturdy horse with a long feather waving gaily from his foreloek and bells jingling merrily from every pos sible part of his harness. The drive to Anna Capri was very like the walk 10 Tibefius' Villa, with the same entranc- ing view in every direction. The little town itself is indescribsbly quaint and picturesque, simpler and even more foreign than Capri, with no large ho- tels and few tourists. We lunched at a charming little inn-really nothing but a pension of the simplest type. Luncheon was served under a pergola in tiny garden with roses every where, and hens roaming around in the most social manner, while friend ly eat persisted in forcing her society upon us to the distress of the member of our party who "hated eats. - Such a luncheon as it was, simple to de gree but perfectly cooked and served, a real Italian meal, just dish of Ma caroni fit for the gods, followed by an omelette fried potatoes, salad, cheese and fruit, washed down by delicious i 1dHfl Nlnt auI >tfNcu ON klit fiiNSl hospi;able of hostesses. On leaving we were simply loaded with roses and given the most urgent invitations to come again, and all went away feeling we had made new friend. In fact that is one Of the charms of Capri, all the people are your friends, you feel il the moment you arrive, and grow more and more conscious of il the longer you stay. IL is easy 10 under stand how people come for a week and stay years. As an American man who had lived there year told me, "In way it's a dangerous place, il will sep arate two people who love each other, every time, fl one wants to stay in Capri and the other does not. Per haps il is because the Islands oI the Syrens are near and the old charm ex- ists as il did in the days of Ulysses.
