 Richard was so busy that several days passed before he found time to discuss with his bethrothed the de- tails of his good fortune.
 Then, he declared he knew little more about them than she did. Some years ago hls uncle had died at the west. The eastern branch of the family had always supposed that he had money. But they never got cent of it.
 We could not afford to investi- gate the matter" Richard explained, even if my father had been willing to do so. He was not. We suspected that an intimate friend of this great uncle of mine made away with the coin before the old man died. It may be that now that this old friend is old and likely to die soon, he has qualms of conscience, and has in- quired about me-the cnly male heir Of the Rankins-and has arranged to have the cash deposited to my ac- count.
 By the way, when one has a stroke of luck more comes to him. By an odd coincidence a man who owes me money has asked me to let him pay me by transferring to me a Ns It was the only way he could liqui- date his debt to me. The owner of the farm cannot afford to hold it much longer, so now would be the time to foreclose."
 You would not forecIose, would you?' the girl asked.
 Richard shrugged his shoulder. Il don't know. l may if I need the money"
 "Oh," Winifred's exclamation startled him to a sudden apprecia- tion of the false step he was mak- inC. You cannot mean that-you know what it was to be poor your selfr'
 He forced laugh to his lips. "Sw weetheart-no, of course not" he exclaimed Tt was only in fun. If the old chap who owns the property cannot pay the interest on the mort gage, of course, I will give him time
 The girl sighed .n relief Do you know you actually frightened me, Dick?" she said. T thought you were in earnest"
 You might have known I was not, dear girl" he reproved.
 Of course she ought to have known it-and she understood now that he had been only in fun. Yet it seemed strange that he who had always rlonged to help the poor people, should jest about another mans poverty.
 Then she excused him as she re- flected that the sudden accession of even a small fortune would naturally excite him so that he would talk loosely In a few days he would be himself again and return to his be- loved task of helping the down-trod- den men among whom he had loved to labor.

Raggedy Andy was so happy be- cause he and Raggedy Ann and Lit tie Ned Gnome had been rescued from the two mean little old Witches by Percfval Pig, he took his Wishing Stick and wished that they would soon find an ice cream soda water fountain.
 And Percival Pig was happy to be changed from pig back into a nice clean boy again, he caught hold of Raggedy Ann's hand and raced with her through the woods in search of the ice cream soda water fountain,
 It only took the Raggedys and lit tie Ned Gnome and Percival a mo- ment to come to a lovely ice cream soda water fountain, and when they reached there they found Percivals S sister, Penelope Pig.
 Penelope Pig was still a little pig girl, but Raggedy Andy wished for her to be changed from .. a pig to a nice clean little girl again.
 This was a nice wish for Raggedy Andy to make, for long, long ago, Penelope had grown tired of being pig and had wished and wished sne could be a nice clean little girl again.
 Thank you. Raggedy Andy" Pene- | lOpe SalQ, l SldlI never make q DIE out of myself again"
 So, the Raggedys and little Ned Gnome and Penelope and her brother PercivaI, sat down beside the nice, lovely ice cream soda water fountain to enjoy themselves.
 The soda water fauntain was a magical soda water fountain.
 It had been made a long time be-. fore by Betsy Bonnet String, but was still as good and new.
 The magical soda water fountain came in fine spray right out of a crooked tree and at the side of the tree there was place where you could get any flavor you might wish
 And at the other side of the tree was a place where you could get any flavor of ice cream you wished to match the flavor of the soda water
 So the Raggedys and little Ned Gnome and Percival and Penelope . tried every flavor there, and that was eleventeen.
 Magical ice cream soda water never gives anyone the stomach ache.
 So Penelope and PerciVal did not make pigs of themselves when they had eleventeen ice cream sodas, for they could easily have drank ten more. But. would you believe it? Just as they finished their ice cream sodas who should come flying up but the two mean little old Witches Wanda and Winda Witch.
 "Oh, dear!" Raggedy Ann saio when she saw them, Now they will try and capture us again, I'll bet a nickel!"
 Let us run as fast as we canr' Raggedy Andy said.
 Do not run, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy" Wanda and Winda Witch cried when they saw what the Raggedys and little Ned Gnome in- tended doing, We shall not chase you anymorer'
 So the Raggedys and little Ned Gnome sat there and the two Witches came and sat down beside them

 The man who waits to marry up- til he falls in love at first sight had as well wait to make any other move until he is struck by lightning, fol the one is just as likely to happen to him as the other
 Just as few men are great lovers as are great tenor singers, which is a good thing for women because great lovers seldom make good hus- bands. Emotional men are not only the hardest to live with, but they require fresh objects upon which to expend their sentiment.
 The kind of love that endures the strain of matrimony best is a glori- fled friendship that is not based on thrills, but common sense. It does not see a man as a romantic hero, nor a woman as q full-fledged angel, but as human beings. and. recogniz- ing them as such, loves them, faults and all. It does not ask the impos- sible, but it sees that it Is getting companionship and sympathy and understanding.
 This love looks before it leaps It takes suitability into consideration, for 1t knows that the slogan, All for love, and the world well lost" is the most misleading propaganda on earth. It loves with It's head as well as it's heart, and that sort of love stands the test of time and the wear and tear of life.
 The ability to chum with man or woman is the real acid test of love. Thrills don't count because they are canned after marriage, any how

SHORT STORY BY SARAH HAARDT APPEARS IN NSMART SETN

In October Smart Set" there is story by Sarah Haardt of Montgomery. Now when young women get their names over a story in the Smart Set. fthey have reached that stage of dis tinction where the Miss" Is omitted. And anyway Sarah Haardt Is up there in Baltimore fraternizlng with the distinguished Mencken and his con- temporaries and a little thing like title would only make her laugh with keenest pleasure. So this story called Joe Moore and Callie Blasin- game appears in the Smart Set. It is really just a word picture of Mont gomery splashed on the pages of the magazine.
 The wonder Is that such young writer and one who has lived in this city most of her life. could get the perspective and portray the atmos phere that surrounds the life of Zoe Moore and Callie Blasingame."
 People who are informed as to just what 1t takes to succeed as a modern day writer, declare that Sarah Haardt is we'll on her way.-Montgomery ..Adyertiser.

 "Gt is dated" Stone said, "the date that Dr. Waring died.
 It was. Had this, too, been gwen to the strange young woman, whom Stone was beginning to designate 10 himself by the title of adventures Was 1t possible that young glrl. Who seemed scarce more than child, had somehow maneuvered to get all this from a man whom she had denoer- atelv fascinated and infatuated!
 It was incredible-yet what eise could be assumed?
 Gordon Lockwood looked deeply distressed. Ills lips set in a ught line. and he said through ms clenched teeth:
 my faith in that girl! She Is blame less, and only these misleaalng GIT cumstances make you think other wise, MT. Stone"
 The detective looked at him as one might regard a hopeless lunatic,,
 But young McGuire's- face was a study
 He looked horror-stricken and then dazed. Then he held an in spiration, apparently, for he smiled broadly-only to lapse again into a profound gloom.
 If it ain't the beatin' est" he said. at last "Whatcha make of 1t, E. Stone?"
 Pm completely staggered for the moment, Fibs," the detective re- turned, "but these cumulative evi- dences of Miss Mystery's-er-ac- quisitive, disposition, seem-I say, seem-to lead to a suspicion of her undue influence over Dr. Waring, at least. as to obtaining money.'-
 "Oh, she didn't" Lockwood fairly groaned. Don't blame herl Per haps Waring fell victim to her urged these gifts upon her.
 Perhaps" Fibsy said; perhaps he threatened to kill her if she didn't accept his checks and coin and rubiesl-and maybe she had to kill him in self-defense-"
 "Self-defensew Lockwood cried, grasping at any straw. Could it have been that?"
 "No,p Stone said; "be rational. man, whatever made Anita Austin kill Dr. Waring, it wasn't a case of self defense"
