MARSTKRS DRUG STORE Mr. Wuukeorelt. fattier of a family tils oldest dauguter. Eunice, wug teu-(y-Htarttd one One clu.v on n lm trip He bad worked nord for oiany yearn und. bavins secured a competence, pro posed to take a vacation and nee Hume thing of tiie world. Some one after ward asked blin wbat was the Happiest moment In bis life. He replied. "When I wns on tbat ocean liner sailing out through New York bay." Whether the leaving of bin fnmily and family cures behind coutrlhutd especially to his happiness or detract ed therefrom Is a puzzling question to maids and bachelors. Certain hus bands and fathers who do not take kindly to family restraints may see ft all very clearly. Hut this story has nothing to do with Mr. WiiuUenfclfs trip: It has all to do with his return after seven mouths absence. It was midnight when. bav. lug paid his cahtiinn. he mounted the slept of his domicile and, opening the I vestibule door, a man attempted to brush past him. Mr. Waukenfelt seized him. there was n scufllo. the man soon rein xlng bis effoits till he was pinioned ; by his opponent. "If you'll give me time to explain" i the prisoner began when his captor In 1 terrupted. "You can do that at the police sta tion." And. dragging the man out on to the stoop by his coat collar, be hus , tied him down the steps. He was as ton Ls bed to see that the man was quite i young and looked strong enough to "wipe the floor" with his antagonist 'Nevertheless he permitted himself to be led like a lamb to the slaughter. Indeed, lie never made a move to re 1 slst or uttered n word till he was laiid ; ed In the police station. "What's your name?" asked the ser geant at the desk. "I'll leave hhn with you, sergeant," said Mr. Waukenfelt. "I've Just re turned from a Jong journey and wish to go home." "Sure you'll appear against him In the morning?" "Yes: I'll be here; don't worry." Mr. Waukenfelt went home and. go ing to his own room, went to bed without disturbing his family. In the morning there was a great hubbub at learning that the father had returned. All gathered round hlui as soon as he came out of his room, and there were hugging and kissing till breakfast was announced. "What did you bring me. pop?" ask ed his youngest son. Anil the ques tion was repeated by all the family in an ascending scale of nge I ill it reach ed lltose old enough to refiviiu lnni expressing what was mi their minds. When all were satisfied In this respect, Eunice, throwing her arms jtboiit her father's iK'. k. said: "And I've gut smnethhig for you. pupa. dear. (Juess what it is V Mr. Waukenfelt guessed ewrythln from a pair of suspenders to a flock, then g:ive it up. "A s.oi In-law." said the girl, hidlug her blushes u her father's chest. "A son in law! Why, sweetheart: that's suniet hiiig for you, Hn't It ? You've not given nie anything, but have taken away yourself." "He's perfoitly splendid, papa. 1 want you to meet him rlyht off. I know you II like him. lie knows you are here; at least I told him you were coming last night. Wo sat together till nearly 12 '. lock. I did so wish you could have arrived before he went away." "What time did he go" asked th; 1 father. I "About a quaru-r to 12." ! "Why do you say 01i?'" ' "I had an adveuture when I on me In. i I opened tho vestibule door, and a bur j glar who was trying to get Into the house or trying to get out. I don't know which, tried to escape." "tJood gracious!" "Hut 1 got him." "(Jot hhn: Didn't he kill you?" "I wouldn't be here If he had. I took him to the police station and left him there." "Wh.it kind of a looking uuu was he?" asked Mrs. Waukenfelt. "One of those fellows who go about committing burglaries with crysanthe 1 mums In their buttonholes and leave gentleman like notes for the persons they rob You'd better look over the stiver. Hut he vouldn'l have got away with nu thing, for 1 took hhn right from the limine to the station ' 1 "Did he look very w U ked ?" asked Eunice. "Very." "What did he say when you turned him In?" "Oh, the sergeant began to question bint, asking him tlrst his name. 1 came away about that time." "What name did he give?" "Menhayden or Mendenhorn or some such queer name." "Oh. heavens!" exclaimed Eunice. 'Are you sure It wasn't Mendeuhall ?" "That's It-Mendenhall." "Oh, father! He's my Tom!" "Your Tom! How did your Tom' "It's that nbomlnable outside door. He got caught lu the vest bale that way once before ' As soon ns KunfN could get on her wraps she hurried away with her fa ther for the station.
