HUNTING THE SHOE
By II. N. EGBERT.

All the way over Nicholson had tried
to make the acquaintance Of the girl
IN brown. But, try as hard as he
could, he failed to elicit anything
more than parting greeting from her.
She was named Mary Martin. and he
overheard her telling the steward that
she was school teacher and spend
ing her vacation on a tour of the Brit.
ish cities.
Nicholson was making a pleasure
tour. He was one of those fortunate
young men who have sufficient income
to make work unnecessary. Not that
he was an idler. He meant to take
up sociology seriously-was, in fact,
on his way to England at the invita-.
ton of friend, to attend some crowd.
ed political meetings in the Black
I, Country, the industrial part Of the
| Midlands.
The girl in brown would not say
anything more than "good-morning'
and "good-evening" She even seemed
to resent Nicholson's attempts to
force himself upon her, the young
man thought. So. by the time the voy
age was half ended he had left hel
severely alone.
1t was one of the greatest disap
pointments that he had ever had. He
was not an unduly impressionabls
J young man, but the girl in brown hat
made a profound impression upon hi
heart. There is some inner sense tina
tells us whether these affairs have IL
them the possibility of permanence
Nicholson felt that he could love tn
girl in brown-given propinquity TO
,, the development of his passion-unti
, he died
,, However, love must have responsive
! ness, and by the time he reached o.
ford he had only a pleasant, mellowe
\ memory Of her. He put up at tn
Queens hotel. His room was on
! long corridor. And as he entered
he heard light footsteps coming alon

Mrs. Commuter, basely deserted by
her maid at the eleventh hour, mobil-
lied a Swedish reserve in desperation
for the dinner party. All the English
the new domestic understood was the
sign manual, but an hours drill put
her in some shape for service. The
dinner went we'll until dessert. The
Swede forgot the finger-bowls which
should have been upon the plates. Mrs.
Commuter employed the sign manual
under cover Of the table illustrating
the washing and drying Of hands. The
Swede nodded, went out and returned.
Mrs. Commuter turned to lind the new
domestic at her elbow. Serenely she
held a dish-pan of hot water. cake Of
yellow washing-soap. and the kitchen
roller towel.

the girl in brown.
She did not pay the slightest heed
to him, but without any sign OF rec

Nicholson sighed, changed his mind
about going to bed. and went out and
nromenaded the High for nearly an
hour.

Nicholson went to bed and slept like

In fact. he was a little ashamed to

that the sun was shining brightly. He

his shoes. And, next to 1t, was a

Practically all returns from the

ceived at present and the growers
are not very enthusiastic regard
ing the prices received this year,
many announcing that this would
be their last year in that busi-

Judging from the returns mar
ket conditions were the same the
country over, there being but
little difference in the prices re-
ceived from the various centers.
The cantaloupes this year were
of good grade and it appears that
all sections of the country also
