Reginald, Rose and the Raggedy Girl

red rose which Hortense had plucked for him. while they were walking through the garden.
 Along came the Raggedy Girl. Reg gie saw her long before Hortense did. Indeed, to tell the truth, Hortense was more interested in watching the handsome young second gardener. who happened to be working quitS' close to the wall that afternoon. tha. she was in her charge.
 Imagine her surprise then. when she turned and beheld Reggie and the Rasgedy Girl standing facing each other--and Reggie offering her the big red rose.
 Here's Q rose for you, little girl" Reggie was saying quite simply.
 Mon Dieu!" cried Hortense
 "oh!" gasped the Raggedy Girl as she stretched forth her hand and took the flower. And again, "Oh"
 'Eet is too much!" exclaimed Hor- tense. Come wiz me. Reggie" But Reggie had no intention of do- ing so. DO you like roses?" he asked the little gir.. "Oh! Oh, I just love them." she cried, smelling the fragrant blossom : end folding 1t close to her check :, "Reggle!" comhanded Hortense. I've got lots of 'em." continued Reggie, smiling at her. And I'll give you one every day, if you like"
 The Raggcdy Girl stared at him. open-mouthed. It sedmed too good to be true; and she feared she surely must be dreaming. Why. for weeks and weeks she had watched the beau tiful roses in the garden and lonRcd for one--just one. And here, the li'- tie boy who lived there had given her one--and promised one every day,
 "Reggie!" gasped Hortense again: and she clutched him by tho arm to drag him away.
 Well. well, what Is the matter ?" asked a quiet voice right behind her It was Reggie's father who had been riding and had just dismounted from his horse to speak to his son.
 "Msieu." explained Hortense, rnak- ing him a courtesy And she hos tened to explain and to apologize fer the fact that his son. actually his own son. had spoken 10 this ragged little girl and given her a rose.
 Reggie's papa smiled. That is all right, Hortense." he said. "And the little lady shall have her rose every morning. too. I am glad 10 see that my little son Is such a gentleman. It is easy to be polite to your equals. you know. Hortense: but true courtesy. Is that which is shown to those who are not so well off in riches or educa- tion as yourself"
 And then, to Hortense's horror he. too. talked to the little Raggedy Girl for quite a while. and told her to come, to the wall every day for her rose. N All of which might be a good lesson for certain little boys and girls you and I know. don't you think?-but of course we won't say their names!

When Belinda Scored
So

mother told Aunt Susan all about the cakes and pies she's been baking and you bet I'll be there to help eat 1t up."
 At last the day of the party arrived and Belinda fairly flew home from school to prepare for the great event. When she emerged from her mothers s hands she was G. vision of childish grace and beauty. Arrayed in pink silk with shoes and socks to match, a band of velvet around her pretty curls, thus she set forth to make her first conquest.
 There were many other little girls at the scene of gaiety, and they all looked very nice indeed, but it was Belinda who easily captured the heart of every boy. In all the games they played it was the fair Belinda who led them off. When they were form ing for Sir Roger de Coverly," Billy boy looking very shy and awkward slid up to her, and keeping his eyes fixed on his boots said timidly, Be Inda-will-willy you be my partrer?'
 why, Billy-boy I'm so sorry I've just promised Teddy Cook" returned the little girl sweetIy. And Billy-boy with jealous rage in his heart saw his rival walk proudly off with the coveted prize.
 When they had danced "Sir Roger till they were tired somebody was heard to say that Teddy Cook was wanted outside and later, news was

Whereupon Hortense. with many gestures and exclamations had tried to explain. It was simply that Reggie
 was Reggie, the son of wealthy par ents and little boy who had a cer- tain position and aloofness to live up to.
 And the Raggedy Girl was, well,
 just a ragged. poor little miss who
 wasn't of the sort whom Reggie should know and play with. Hortense
 was quite certain about 1t; and she added, further, that Reggie's papa and mamma would be quite dis pleased, even shocked, if they learned that Reggie had so much as spoken to the Raggedy Girl.
 But Reggie couldn't understand 1t
 at all. He thought her a very nice
 little girl-and he was tired, oh.l so
 tired, of having only Hortense and hls
 pony and a groom-with, now and
 then, ono of his own rich little friends from the city-for company. He felt
 certain he could have all sorts of jolly
 times with the Raggedy Girl, and he
 knew she could teach him a lot of
 delightful games to play.
 One afternoon Reggie was walking with Hortense outside the big wall which enclosed the estate. And he happened to be carrying q beautiful

on the grass. lazily eating an apple. Billy ly-boy-look-see what I've got, an invitation to Bella's party" she cried holding aloft a tiny en- velope.
 Rats" said Billy-boy. "Ive got one of those things somewhere. Gee. where'sAit gone to anyway" he nut tered, diving into his pockets and bringing forth odds and ends of string, glass alley, a core of an apple, a boot lace and last of all the missing note stuck to a big dabb of sticky substance known commonly in the small boys realm as ''taffy." Read it Billy-boy," said Belinda, persuasively.
 What good will that dor" ques- toned Billy rather sullenly. "Oh, just to see if it's like mine." returned Belinda Please Billy-boy." And when Belinda coaxed even hard hearted Billy went under. So Billy read in bored voice: "The pleasure of your company is requested at birthday party, to be I held in honor of Miss Bella Carr on Tuesday afternoon at 4.30 F. M, al her mothers residence. 422 Maple avenue"
 "Isn't 1t too lovely for anything ?' sighed Belinda, as Billy-boy finished "'Course all girls like 'em," an swered Billy-boy seornfully. i"'Cause they can wear their pretty clothes and sit on a chair giggling all the

can." said MT. Chip. Please don't disturb our little ones"
 T won't disturb them," said Timo- thy grimly. "I'll swallow them whole!" Up the tree he went while the Chip pensbys screamed with fright and futtered their wings. Now, the nest was built on a very slender twig, and Timothy Timanus was very large, heavy cat. overfed on milk and liver and not used to much activity. So it was that when he was only a few feet away from his prey, the branch on which he stood bent down. Timothy grabbed and struggled right and left. but the little twigs were too thin to hold him and down he fell with a thud on the grass. He was not much hurt, except his dignity which was rudely Jarred--for he was a very dignifled cat. The Chippensbys did not jeer at him. They were afraid he might try again and be successful so they sat quietly and watched. Pretty soon Timothy IT.
 
 walked around, pretending nothing was the matter at all, Then he went up to the tree and, in an offhand way, sharpened his claws. Then he looked up and acted as if he had only just spied the two Sparrows sitting there Il think will let you stay there as you are out of the way" he said in an important voice. But don't came down on the lawn and disturb me-"
 Then he walked sedately away and disappeared under his Canna leaves. and l don't know whether he had Q sense of humor or whether he was just making the best of things. Which ever way it was, he showed that he was very sensible cat, don't you think SO? Anyhow he left Mir. and Mrs. Chip alone after that, and they soon had fine lot of little Chips flying around.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-09-22

Well. if you keep off this tree. we might let you use the lawn, MT. Cat"
 Now. Timothy Timanus did not like this at all. as he considered that the Park and everything on it belonged to him. So he put back his ears and growled and began to climb up the tree. But the Sparrows flew off laugh ing, and as soon as Timothy Timanus climbed down again, they flew back on their perch.
 This annoyed Timothy and he went under his Canna leaves to think out a good way to punish the birds and soon he thought of a rather cruel and wicked plan. He said no more after that only waited and waited and wait ed. and soon the Chippensbys got used to him and built their nest.
 Later-if one could have seen-five little eggs lay in the nest, and still Timothy Timanus waited, his mouth watering. One day-if you had had ears as sharp as old Timothy's-you might have heard little chirping in the nest and you would have known that the

 And the Raggedy Girl? Well, of course that wasn't her name; Reggie had called her that from the moment he first saw her on the outside. of the big wall peering over at the beAu- tiful flowers and the great sweep of lawn within. Not out of meanness. but because he didn't know her real name and that name suited her. Her papa and mamma were as poor as Reggie's were rich, if such a state ment is permissible. She had noth- ing-Reggie everything.
 And yet, all she wanted was a rose. Just one, mind you, of the hundreds of red and pink and yellow and white ones growing so 1uxuria inside the wall. And she couldn't have it; for to climb the wall and pluck one was to take what didn't belong to her; and the Raggedy Girl was honest, even though her little dresses were patched and worn.
 Now. it is pleasant to relate, Reggie was attracted to the little Raggedy Girl from the outset. Please, Hor- tense," he said to his French nurse, that bright morning he espied her

knowing expressionl But he was rather spoilt and had rather insolent man ners for cat. He used to go every day into his Park and creep under the big, shady leaves of the cannas, which completely hid him from view. as if he were in a little tent. and there he would doze and watch the people and carts and cars pass.
 One day MT. and Mrs. Chippensby, a very estimable couple, sparrows by birth. came down the street and stopped at the little Square. They looked over the place carefully and liked it well.
 '"fhat beautifufi tree is just the thing!" cried Mrs. Chippensby. And see the lovely Peanut Man standing there! With his cart all heaped up he is sure to drop a few morsels- perhaps a peanut a day, maybe more!'
 T like the lpcattor," said MT. Chip pensby, who never gushed. ,
 So the Chippensbys moved in then and there and selected 8 twig on one of the little branches of the Maple Tree as the site for their home.
 But Timothy Timanus under the Cannas had seen all this. and did not approve. He said nothing, though. until that evening when the City had settled down and the street became quieter. Then he came out of his retreat and strolled over to the tree and looked up at the Chippensbys, who were preparing to retire after

 As for Belinda she had suddenly discovered her power and led Billy boy sad chase, although she knew that perhaps the next day would find her running to do his bidding as of yorc, yet that night was her night and she meant to make the most of it!

At enc end of it grew a little Maple Tree, not an extraordinarily beautiful tree. but good and faithful just the same, and under its shade on the sidewalk all day stood Augustus Giaconano selling peanuts from his cart and keeping a wary eye out for newsboys.
