THE EVENING STORY

A promising half-back, unless I'm
much mistaken"
"Favors his poor mother? sighed
the banker, and rubbed his bald spot
as he started violently.
There it is again" he exclaimed
Come, come. john said the
doctor, whats the trouble? Been
working too hard, eh?"
II don't know what the trouble is
and that's the trouble"
Lets see il we can't clear 1t up, /"
and the doctor ceased to play with his
paper weight.
"Well, James, it's like this, Let's
see. oh, yes. Well. it was the day
the Prominent American Citizens
came home. They'd begged me for a
brief sketch of my civic work and
my dear Stacia wrote a few words
for me, and that night my dear Stacia
and | were aroused from our rest by
a crash that sounded as If all the
china in the kitchen were broken.
On going down to see / found our
Haviland wedding service smashed to
atoms on the floor My dear Stacia

most careful. She is certain the
would trust my Stacia as would old
Jenkins, who locks the vaults at the
bank. Unlike my poor Bertha, she
never overlooks a thing. ouch" He
Jumped up and nearly bounced onto
the doctors lap.
Poor old john thought that

what's in it, Aloud he said sit
down, John; there's a good fellow, and
let me take your pulse. Nothing
wrong there. Feeling pretty good

with caution, for Bundy was a church
warden, a prohibitionist, and could
take away patronage to the city ply

game myself-be frank"
The little banker drew himself up.
II give YOU my word Of honor that
not drop of liquor has crossed my
lips these 10 years"
The words had scarcely left his lips
when he fairly skipped around the
room, his hand to his bald spot, as if
more than commonly business-like
wallop had hit his denuded Uranium.
Look out!' shouted the doctor.
you're knocking over my books!
You look as If you had stopped a
left-hander from Dempsey"
"Am l going insane?" called the
banker. These blows"
Tell me one thing. Does Mrs.
Bundy complain?'
"Well. yes. You know my dear
Stacia never uses face powder, but
she had bottle of cold cream she
uses occasionally when we go on long
rides in the car. Some one had
poured ink in the cream and my dear
Stacia ruined one of her best pillows
and appeared at breakfast slightly
stained"
Anything else?"
Queer things happen, and maybe
you're in the hands of clever prac.
tical joker"
Last Sunday my wife was carrying
the chicken and had reserved some
small pieces of white meat for herself.
They We're whisked off her plate and
vanished. Yes, sir"
The doctor considered. "Was your
wife fond of chicken?"
MY poor wife was excessively fond
of the pleasure of the table"
Here the whole row of books fell
down, knocking the doctor off his
chair, while poor Bundy seemed to
receive a more than customarily
severe punishment. The doctor sat
on the floor, undignified, indeed, but
smirking. To himself that scientist
said: Il could swear a fat woman's
arms went around my neck. And
didn't that enornous woman drench
herself in September dreams?"
Hastily brushing off his trousers,
the doctor left the room to search for
volume bearing on what he believed
to be a solution of this problem,
Ever hear of poltergeists?' he
asked, casually.

did not come to be made fun off,
well, you say you and Mrs.
Bundy are both disturbed. Have the
children suffered any?"
Poor Billy complained he saw his
mother the other night and she said
my dear Stacia should be in the pen
for false statements. Now, the kids
all like their stepmother and We
agreed it was a nightmare after too
much supper. They all eat we'll"
The doctor shook his head. Don't
you worry. I'm going to invite my.
self for tonight to see your home and
Wen see what We'll see"
; AT dinner were Bernice, Billy,

guest.
When told the occasion demanded
the presence of a doctor she at once
professed her willingness to assist.
We will keep our vigil in the den,'
she declared. There are only few
reference books there and they cannot
hurt any one"
The family retired at II. The three
injured friends took their seats In the
small room and talked of how careless
some people were with their children
when cars passed and how glad they
were so different. Then a sleepy con.
tent stole over the doctor and he re-
marked that soon the trout would
rise.
Suddenly Mrs. Bundy let out a thin
yell. Some one is shaking me by the
hair" she said, and, to the utter
amazement of her husband and the
doctor she jumped up--but her hair.

circle the ceiling, while all the books
fell with a crash to the floor.

The First Mrs. Bundy.

was agreed that he did the
right. thing. Eight chill
flren are a burden on any man, even
if he be manager of small but pros
porous rural bank, and when an auto
mobile had removed his eminently eff
cient wife from her earthly usefulness
his choice of the science teacher OF
the high school was deemed wise and
good.
Mr., Bundy was banker by design
and vocation. His mind turned to
figures as plant toward the sun.
His children resembled nothing so
much as a stout column of figures.
Mrs. Bundy II cher that was Stacia
Larcome of the High" as the farmers
wives called herr fitted admirably to
the businesslike, scheme. She looked
precise. She was reported to have
made wise investments Her hair
was smoothly parted. Her hands
were broad tipped, eminently prac-
tical.
The Bundy residence" (see the
local paperl was a model 1t fronted

by the appearance of John Bundy in
his shiny closed car returning from
the bank each afternoon.
1t was therefore in the nature of
an earthquake when he was seen to
enter the door of the house of the
only medical man in the village, who
was known to have a prediction for
psychIcal research.
Mr. Bundy was not sick. He was
merely thoroughly frightened. When
the merry eyed man of pills. greeted
him he stroked his smooth-shaven
plump cheek and-stammered.
Now. it is not to the discredit of
the man of medicine if he thought for
the moment the sedate little banker
had been celebrating. John Bundy
had never heretofore been known to
stammer.
James Jones'" he said at length,
'T believe I should have gone first
to the police"
Glad to see you, John. Always
glad to see you. You and the chill
dren and your good wife, too, certain
ly look fine. They're credit to the
air of Lumpville, and though they
don't help to make me a heavy de-
positor they're a pleasure to see.
Billy goes to college this Fall, eh?
Evening star., 1927-04-22

DR.. Jones saw his name in the
papers as an assistant at a veritable
scarce. The future was bright. John,
annoyed beyond measure at this ex-
pose of his wife's artifice, began to
pick up the books, among others the
gorgeous gold and green Prominent
Citizens" which accidentally fell open
at his own name
