And Ji-dekiah,

And Jane Sophia soprano sings
So high you'd think her voice had wing*
To soar above all earthly things.
When she leads off on Sunday ;
While Anu Maria’s alto choice
llings out in such harmonious voice
’lhat sinners in the church rejoice.
And wish she’d sing till Monday.
Then Obedlah's tenor high
Is unsurpassed beneath the sky;
Just hear him sing ’’Sweet Ry and By,’’
And yo.t will sit and wonder;
While Jedekiah's bass profound

And wukcs the echoes miles around,
Like distant rolling thunder.
Talk not to us of Patti’s fame,
Of Nicolini's tenor tame.
Of Cary's alto—but a name—
Of Whitney's ponderous basso!
They sing no more like Jane Sophia.
And Ann Marla. Obediah.
And Jedekiah in our choir,

The young woman fixed her large
liquid blue eyes on a distant sail In
the liquid blue of the lake and dreami­
ly answered that she supjtosed most
girls did.
"Have you?" asked the sprawling
young man.
■‘Perhaps I have," the girl admit­
ted.
“Tell me what he's like."
“My ideal?” She withdrew her eyes
from the sail and fixed them with a
cool stare upon her questioner. “I—
.‘hl nk—you—have—your—nerve,”
she
said, very slowly and distinctly.
“Perhaps I have,” said the young
man. “I always try not to leave it be­
hind when I go anywhere. I so often
need It In my business. Be a good fel­
low and tell me. I won't give you
away. Honest, I won't. Come on,
now; you and I are good friends.”
"Why do you want to know?”
“I’ve got an Ideal fellow In my mind
and I want to see how near he could
come to the plans and specifications.”
"Is he nice?”
“Nicest'kind."
“And you wouldn’t—If he should
come up to them—you wouldn't tell
him?”
"Not much. What kind of sewing
society do you think I am? Certainly
"HONESTLY, I DON'T LIKE THE LOOK OF
HIM.”
I wouldn't. This shall be our own
dark secret. I’m the closest kind of a
fellow, me.”
“I know’ you are and I wish you’d
move farther away,” said the girl.
“You never know who’s out on the ho­
tel veranda with field glasses. Well, if
It's a secret then I’ll tell you. To be­
gin with, he's tall. I've got to look up
to him. you know, and I'm not what
you might call petite.”
“How tall?" asked the young man,
drawing a small memorandum book
and [»encll from his coat pocket.
“Rather over 6 feet than under.”
“Well, I suppose you know what you
want,” said the young man, ‘but I hate
these lanky guys myself.”
“He wouldn't be lanky
He'd be
broad In projiortlon.”
“Then he'd be altogether too big for
a flat. You'd find him horribly In your
way. There wouldn't be room for the
piano.”
“He’ll have a house—two houses;
one In town and another in the coun­
try, and a retinue of servants. He'll
be wealthy.”
“That might help some. Go on! Rut
I tell you honestly I don't Ilka the look

"If you Interrupt me I cnn’t go on,”
said the young woman. "He will have
a high, white forehead------”
“Merging Into pink where It meets
the back of the neck,” suggested the
young man. “I can Just see him. I
beg your pardon. Pray proceed.”
"If you say another syllable that's
the last you'll hear." the young woman
said, severely. "If you are really In­
terested you’ve got to keep quiet and
listen. A high, white forehead and
crisply curling dark hair. His eyes
are dark, too, and they can look very
soft and tender, but they flash like a
storm cloud when he Is aroused to
anger."
The young man whistled under bls
breath.
“He has a drooping silky mus­
