INS, by Associated Lit erary Press. Her mother named ber Cynthia wbep i she was three day old and said sbe hoped tbe little darling wouldn't grow up to fall In love and become a wife and mother. : The little darling didn't Wben She was a year old she hadn't rolled yet ' When tbe doctor was ap pealed to as to what ailed ber be re plied: - "Her name gave ber shock and aoured ber disposition." , "Hut will sbe die young?" was asked. "Not by a jugful! Sbe Is cut out for an old maid, and sbe will live as long as tbere is anything that she can med dle with and stir up trouble." Sbe bad got to be tbtrty-flve years old wben an event happened. Dp to till time tbey bad been incidents and occiirreures. This wus un event to be spelled with a big "E." Little Mrs. Larkins was tbe bride of a year. Sbe bad married a nice young oi:in. and tbe borne was a bappy one. One day tbe husband answered ber in an impatient way. and soon after be bud gone to business Cyutbla dropped In to Hud tbe wife In tears. Tbe old maid licked ber chops. Here a bouquet of gossip for ber. What was tbe matter? "It's its Henry!" "Ab ba! ! said so wben yon were married. What's be done?" "I wanted just a card of books and eyes, and be said be couldn't be both ered with such trifles." "Well, that's tbe beginning of tbe end. In six months there will be a separation." "Oh. don't say that Henry was bothered about something and gave me an impatient answer. Maybe be will even bring tbe books and eyes when be comes." "Lucy Larkins, prepare yourself and don't be deceived! 1 can't stop' longer today, but I will come In tomorrow and tell you what yon must do. Unless you want to lose your husband, tbls thing must be nipped in tbe bud." "Why, Cynthia, bow you frighten mo!" exclaimed tbe wife. Mr. Larkins bad loaned a sum ot money to be repaid n't a certain date. When the date arrived tbe money was not forthcoming. Therefore be was :ipset If Mr. Larkins bad owned up about the money tbe skies would have clear ed In five minutes. ; If Mrs. Larkins had mentioned that tbe old maid wo seeking to make trouble there would have been an explanation. As It wos, when Cynthia culled next day she hound n victim ready for her. -."rid he bring the books and eyes?" she asked. "N-uo." ' , : - "Good! We will now proceed to show that young man u few things to opeu his eyes. We will let him under stand that If be is tired of you you are ditto." "But I can't believe he is tired of me," was protested, . There was plain talk on tbe one side and tears and sobs on tbe other, and at length the wife was won over, and tbe old muld left tbe bouse saying: "Remember that 1 you flunk out you will lose Henry. All you have' to do is to keep quiet till 1 give tbe word." Just about that bour the money that Mr. . Latins was anxious, about whs pnia over, and be came dome an hour ahead of time to tell tbe good news and make bis apologies. "Oh, Lucy, dear!" he called as be entered the !s;uc8. No Lucy dear. , Then came the note left for him prop ped up against tbe clock. "I have discovered that yoi no long er love me, and you will never see me again!" It read. Mr. Larkins jumped two feet high, ills heart choked blm. His knees wnb bled. Tbe room whirled round and round with blm. in a minute more be was out of tbe bouse calling an alarm: "Lucy has committed suicide! Come on to the river!" The river was at Its lowest stage, and a child could have crossed It Lucy's bedraggled body was not to be ieeu. There wus n mud turtle or two Hailing hp or down, but no Lucy. There were orchards and groves, Mid nil night long men were searching They found .no trace of the missins n-ife. and the next day the ground was overed again with even more care. The result was the same. . As night rump down for the second dme u score of men 4rftber at t Larkins homo to sympathize, condole mid plan anew, llenry . Larkins was In tears and the others on the verge when In walked Lucy. She had come downstairs from the garret, where she hud been In biding lu compliance with Miss Cyutbla 's orders She bud agreeo to stay up there at least three days, but couldn't stand the strain. . Her story was told, explanation made, and after a time of rejui-lni! Sipilre Miller rapped for ordev w.-.i said: j "Gentlemen, this meeting has a pit-as ant duty to perform.' let os perfo-m It" Twenty men filed out and down the street and stopped at tbe bouse where the old maid made her borne. She squealed and kicked and scratched, but she was borne to the river and durked till she did not get her breath before high noon next day. No arrests: no suits for damages. She felt that she deserved the dose. i riacQifiPfl FRATERNAL ORDERS. A.7.AA. M. La Grande Lodge No. 41, A. P. tt K. UL holds regular meetings first and third Saturdays ( :80 p. m.
