Practical
Joke
BY HAROLD CARTER


Before Doctor Haynes had been six
weeks in Bishopsville everybody was
agreed that there had been some mys-
terry in his life. Tongues wag in small
communities. Doctor Haynes lived
the life of a recluse; and even the
country people could see that his
knowledge was that of a practiced
city operator.
There was the case of Mary Par
sons, the bankers younger child. She
was taken i'll with appendicitis on a
Sunday morning. in the small hours.
and the nearest hospital was fifteen
miles away. The case was acute, a
journey in the car to the railroad sta

room, by the light of an oil lamp, and
a week later Mary was sitting up in
bed, playing with her dolls.
Il wonder what the mystery is, ia
ther?" asked Gladys, the bankers
pretty twenty-year-old daughter.
1T might be more charitable not to
wonder, dear" answered her mother.
Nevertheless the banker and his
family liked Haynes. Mary adored

him. He broke his rule of privacy in
favor of them. Very occasionally he
would pay them visit on a Sunday
afternoon. The Parsonses encouraged
the young man. He was so obviously
a gentleman, and he had been so kind
to Mary. And 1t was not long before
a deeper feeling grew up between
Haynes and Gladys.
Just as the banker and his wife,
who looked favorably upon the mat
ter, began to expect the announce
ment of an engagement, Haynes fell
back into his old recluse habits. The
banker said nothing; his wife was
sorely troubled. Gladys grew paler.
but she stified her pride.
Until that day of the dinner party,
when Haynes, who had refused an in
vitation, was summoned to attend a
child that had overeaten. Mary had
invited all her little friends, the par
ents had come tc take them home,
and the doctor found himself the
cynosure of all eyes. And Gladys sud
denly felt acutely the humiliation OF
his presence.
She was white with anger; and no
body knew what was said until the
bankers wife found her crying upon
| the doorstep, while Haynes was walk
ing quickly away.
HE has behaved shamefully!" said
| Mrs. Parsons Indignantly.
Gladys raised her eyes in pathetic
appeal. 'You don't understand, moth
err" she answered.
The doctor had told her he loved
her. and that he had never loved any
| body else: also that he could never
| ask her to become his wife and would
try to forget her, as he hoped sh'
would forget him.
Mrs. Parson was laxative. Tit

criticism of Haynes was expressed
