PREPAREDNESS
BY Hector Raynie BurIeigh

Preparedness is the keynote Of
the hour" read Miss Letitia Parker

She scarcely understood the full
meaning and specific application of
the word, for hers was a placid life,
avoiding wars alarms. She never
forgot that word thereafter, how
ever, for directly below it was four
line local item that made the color

hand grasped the paper with a ner-

her heart Of hearts as the model, the
idol of her sentimental dreamings.

younger. Now she was 25, but time
had not dissolved the velvet softness
of her cheek nor the gentle lUster OF
her eyes. She had grown a trifie
prim with the dawning of woman
hood, but her heart was still young.
She had always liked Abel, despite
his quiet, retiring way. A stray ex-
preston Of a friend of Abel, coming
to her ears secondhand, had cast
the die that fixed her Iife's hope and
aspiration. I'm going away to wres-
tie with fortune" Abel was reported
to have said. IF I make a go of it I
am coming back to ask the woman I

hoped Mr.. Drake would write her

have loved and lost than never to
