YOU And your father really believes that you're
decorous, well trained young business man, and
whenever you don't live up to that standard you
get on his nerves and he thinks you need n

any good, PenrOd?"
"Ma'am?"
"Go on and finish the lemonade; there's about
glassfu left. Oh take it, take it, and don't
say why! OF course you're little pig"
Pcnrod laughed gratefully, his eyes fixed upon
her over the rim of his uptilted glass
Fill yourself up uncomfortaby," said the old
lady. You're twelve years old, and you ought to
be hnppy-if you aren't anything else. It's taken
over nineteen hundred years of Christianity and
things to produce you, and there you sit!"
"Ma'am?"
"lt'll be your turn to struggle and muss things
up for the betterment of posterity soon enough,
said Aunt Sarah Grim. Drink your lemonade!"

Levy, he still secretly thought Of Marjorie, with
pathetic constancy, as his "beau"-though that
is not how he would have spelled II. Marjorie
was beautiful; her curls were long and the color
of amber; her nose was straight and her freckles
were honest; she was much pretter than this
complshed visitor But beauty is not all.

She seemed TO him fairy creature from some
roster world than this. So humble is the human
heart it glorifes and makes glamourous almost

Penrod was enslaved He swallowed, coughed,
scratched the back of his neck and said dis
jointedly:
"Well-I don't care-if you want to. just as
soon"

"Dont you want to, Penrod"
"Well, Pm willing to-"
"No. Say you want to-"
"Well"-
he used his toe as gimlet, boring into the
ground, his wide open eyes staring with intense
vacancy at a button on his sleeve. His mother ap-
peared upon the porch in departure, calling fare
wells over her shoulder to Mrs. Gelbraith, who
stood in the doorway.
"Sny it," whispered Fanchon.
"Well, just soon."
She seemed satisfied.

the door.
Penrod hastily dropped the small hand, and ex

tire Of Feminism to stalk within the sanctum
sanctorum and make its nest in the very bosom
of the universe, and to haunt its unholy radi-
ance from the peak of every humble roof?
My friends, this is no time for temporizing,
no occasion for levity no moment of frivolity.
1t is for us to decide whether this new doc
trine of Feminism, this new dogma which has
sprung up, like a deadly fungus growth, full
bodied and armed for the fray, is to prevail,
or whether we grid ourselves for the conflict

dancing floor had been laid upon a platform
in the yard, when Mrs. Schofeld and her ar
rived at their own abode, and white and scarlet
striped canopy was in process of erection over
head to shelter the dancers from the Work
men were busy everywhere under the direction
of Margaret, and the smitten heart of Penrod
began to beat rapidly. All this was for him; he
was Twelve.
After lunch he underwent an elaborate toilet
and murmured not. For the first time in his life
he knew the wish to be sandpapered, waxed and
polished to the highest possible degree. And
when the operation was over he stood before the
mirror in new bloom, feeling encouraged to hope
that his resemblance to his father was not so
strong as Aunt Sarah seemed to think.
The white gloves upon his hands had pleasant
sr.el he found; and. as he came down the stairs
h, had grea. content in the twinkling of his new
dancing slippers. He stepped twice each
step, the better to enjoy their effect, and at the
same time he deeply inhaled the odor of the
gloves. In spite of everything, Penrod had his
SOCIAL capacities. Already it is to be perceived
that there were in him the making of a cotillon
leader
Then came from the yard sound Of tuning in
struments queak Of fiddle, Groom of cello
falling triangle, ringing and tinkling to the floor,
and he turned pale.
Chosen guests began to arrive, while Penrod,
suffering from stage fright and perspration,
stood beside his mother in the drawing room" to
receive them. He greeted unfamiliar acquaint-
ances and intimate fellow criminals with the same
frisidity, murmuring: AN glad to see y" TO all
alike largely increasing the. embarrassment which
always prevails at the beginning of chdren's fes-
.ivties. His unnatural pomp and circumstance
had so thoroughly upset him, in truth, that Mar
iorie Jones received a distinct shock, now to be
related. Doctor Thorpe. the kind old clergyman
who had baptized Penrod, came in for mo-
nent TO congratulate the boy, and had just moved
away when it was Marjorie's turn in the line o.
children to speak to Penrod. She gave him what
she considered a forgiving look and because OF
the OCCASION addressed him in a perfectly cour-
teoGs manner.

to know that he was really listening to her
mother. II was his first meeting with one OF those
grown-up little girls, wonderful product Of the
winter apartment and summer hotel; and Fan
chon, an only child star OF the brand lie
began to feel resentful.

here fearfully Western. Some nice people called

Bittses? Auntie says they're charming. Will
Roddy be at your party?
81 guess he will" returned Penrod, finding this
ineligible. "The mutt"
Really" Fanchon exclaimed airily. Aren't
you great pals with him.?
whats 'pals'?"
Good heavens! Don't you know what it means
to say you're great pals with any one. You are
an odd child"
II was too much.
ooh, Bugs!" said Penrod
This bit Of ruffiansm had a curious effect
Fanchon looked upon him with sudden favor.
~ like you Penrod," she said in an odd way
and whatever else may have been in her manner
there certainly was no shyness
"Oh. Bugs" This repetition may have lacked
gallantry, but it was uttered in no very decided
tone Penrod was shaken.
Eyes, do" She stepped closer to him, smiling
Your hair is ever so pretty"
Sailors parrots swear like mariners, they say;
and gay mothers ought to realize that all children
are initiative for, the precocious Fanchon
leaned toward Penrod. the manner in which she
looked into his eyes might have made thought
full observer wonder where she had learned her
pretty ways.
Penrod was even more confused than he had
been by her previous mysteries: but his confusion
was of a distinctly pleasant and alluring nature:
he wanted more of it. Looking Intentionally into
another persons eyes is an act unknown TO child
hood and Penrod's discovery that it could be done
was sensational He had never thought Of looking
into the eyes of Marjorie Jones.
