He Laughs Best
:. Who Laughs Last
BY SADIE OLCOTT

Dan Eversham entered n railway Sta
ton, bought his ticket and, satchel in
hand, climbed the steps Of parlor car.
His seat was next to n very pretty girl,
Outside on the platform was party
Of youngsters who had been sceingIoff
a newly married couple. PassingSby
Dan Eversham's window, where hessat
near the pretty girl, one Of the party
threw handful Of rice against his
windowpane. Then all Of them waved
goodbys and laughlngly passed on.
This bit Of fun did not trouble Dan
much; but, seeing the pretty girl beside
him blush deep red. lie felt sorry for
her.
Il suppose" he said to her, THAT
those persons think that they fperpe-
trated very good joke"
ut was horrid of Them
This was the beginning Of a. CONVEX
sation that lasted till long after the
train started. Meanwhile those in the
car who had seen the rice throwing
did not doubt that they had a bride
and groom aboard. Dan wasl got up
with sufficient resplendencel for a
groom, and the neat traveling]dress of
the girl was appropriate for a bride.
Then, too, Dan was altogether too po-
lite and attentive to have been long
married, and since they were travelling
together they were not supposed to be
bachelor and spinster.
In the seat opposite the girl sat a
woman from New England. There is
nothing more interesting to woman
than a bride, and this person was a
motherly creature who felt her heart
go out to the young thing who had
but just embarked in the sea of matri-
mony, a sea that the Yankee had
found troubled one. She entered into
conversation with the supposed bride.
'.Nice day." was her entering wedge.
"Quite So" was the laconic reply.
"Going far?"
Il shall travel all day."
"lou must be tired?"
"Why do you think SOP
l"Oh, there's lot to be done in prep.
aration for a weddin'."
The girl saw at once that the party
who had thrown the rice had given a
wrong impression. But instead Of cor
recting 1t, which would be embarrass-
ing. she looked down at an open novel
in her lap and said nothing. The wo.
man was not to be put off.

in Salem. wonder If you're any rela-
ton to her. Your name amt Twitch-
ell, is it,"
mo, it isn't Twitchell."
"Or Salisbury"
NO" and to shut of further inquiry
the girl told her her name was Ef1le
Trobridge.
Il guess it's got somep'n else to II
now"
. Something else! What else can It
need?" s...
"Wall, I guess it don't need nothin'
else, but our laws, made for men, force
us women to give up our own names
and take on man's-that is, when
we tie ourselves up to one of 'em. If
I was you I wouldn't do 1t. You've
got nice name, and I wouldn't take
on any more. What's your married
name?"
"I'm not married"
The woman looked Mt her surprised,
then said in low voice:
II know that brides the first day of
married life don't like to own up to It,
