't I.titlrell, coming down tint ntcpH of j the elevated Million, huw ahead of hill) a girl with chcrrlcH In her hut. The cherrlea and the dark blue rib bon were really iibout all that ho could aee of her, for he looked down on tho 'op of her bond, but n alio furiii-d the corner going down ho caught a glimpse of wavy brown hair and of n trim white collar that ciiuie up to meet It. When he reached the door of exit ho found tho girl with the chcrrlw there. Keen thiiH at cIohc range ahe proved to be nlxxit un high u I.uttn-ll'N heart, tier gown wiin of dark blue llko tbe ribbon of her hut, and ahe carried book In her hand. Hho wm gazing ituxlouHly Into the atreet.

It left the cherrlea out lu the ruin, hut with a quick glnnce around she nii-d up tho Hldcwulk. I.uttrell, taking lung atepa, reached her without effort. "If you will let me." he Hold, "I will hold my umbrella over the cherrlea." She looked up, aturtleil. In the gloom die could not hee his face, but there was no hint of disrespect In Mn voice, and her hot waa new. "ih. If you will"- ahe mild In a prim little way, and for a few minutes they walked on In silence. "We might talk." I.uttrell suggested, "alxuit the weather, it's a good con ventional subject nnd won't commit you to anything In the way of ac quaintance," The girl laughed at that. "1 am not quite sure how to treat the situation. Vy! nee, It's a little unusual to let a man you don't know walk home with you," "SupiK'se we act as If we hud. known each other ull our lives and any tbe things we would say under those cir cumstances." "Under those circumstances," said the little clear voice In the dark, "I should Nay, HtoodncxH, what an awful night!' " "And I Hhould say," was Luttrell'a grave response, " 'Little friend, why tire you out so lute alone?'" "Oh," came tlutterlngly, "I weut to tho library, and when I cume out It was almost dark and, to cap the cli max. It mined." "And your hat would have beeu ruin ed If fate had not kept me dowutown late too. And it's such a pretty hat," lie added reflectively. "Oh!" said the clear little voice again, and then there was another si lence. Tar up the street under a corner lamp they could Just discern a big miiu plodding along, weighted down by two umbrellas. "It'H my. big brother," said the little clear voice, nnd then timidly: "Would you mind going on alone? You see, he might not understand tny letting you but my bat Is new and" "1 understand perfectly," Luttrell told her. "Hut big brothers arc some times dense. I have a little sister my Helf, and I like to look after her pretty closely, nnd that's why I looked nf-ter you." ' Ho had gone Into the darkness be fore she could thank him. Hut from the shadows he watched her fly along tho Intervening space nud come up to her Mb brother. And he heard her uny In that cleur little voice: "It wns so Rood of you to come nfter me. Holt." And then they went along together through the driving storm, and Luttrell wns left alone. After that on his way home rom office he found himself looking for the Blrl with the cherry lint. Hut girls came and girls went, but never tbe right one, and so the months. passed and the winter enmc, nnd there were no cherries on any of the hats, and Luttrell gave up his quest In despair. But always he held In Ida heart the memory of the clear little voice that tad tnlked to him so confidingly la the darkness of the rainy autumn night One night ho dropped Into a fashion able downtown rcNtiiuritut for 4Jiuier, and ut tho next tablo were a big man and a girl In a drooping hat of pale blue. Her gown was of the same col or, and around her neck she wore a col lar of pearls. She was a vision of exqulsltejiess, and there was about her a unvoting quality that made Luttrell look at her more than once. Where had he seen ber? And even as bo questioned the vision said In a clear little volei "Bob, I do believe It Is milling, If we go out, we will have to have a cub." It was the girl with the cherry hot. No other hud such a voice, and thero was the wavy brown hair. And In the brilliant light ho beheld dearly for tho first time tho gray eyeslind the deli cate pink and white of the oval face. Why, the III tie girl was a In-uutyl "You shall have two cabs If you wish," he heard the big man say gculul ly. "We wouldn't want to christen that stunning gown with rain." At the sound of that big, booming voice Luttrell stared, and then he bridged tho distance lietween the two tables and dropped his hand on the other man's shoulder. "Hob Itnymond," ho said, "1 thought I couldn't le mistaken In the voice. Hut you've grown some, Hobble, since I used to pitch you off of tbe campus feme." Itaymoiid wrung bis hand, beaming. "Kls," he said to the Vision In blue, "It's Mark Luttrell. You've heard me tell about our college pranks. Mark, this Is my kid sister." She smiled up at Luttrell from un der the brim of the broad hat "Hob forgets that I am grown up," she said, and Luttrell saw that as yet she had not recognized hjtn as the man of tbe umbrella episode. "I rememlier your picture stood on Hob's chiffonier," he told ber. "You wore your hair In pigtails, but you were awfully pretty, and I fell In love with you." "Oh!" she said, blushing beautifully. "Sit dow n and have dinner with us," Kaymoud Insisted. "Felicia and I have the evening before ua. It's ruining, so we might as well stay here for awhile." ' He turned to give an order to the waiter, and Luttrell leaned toward Fe licia. "If you will lft me," be said, "I wlfl hold my umbrella over the cher ries." There was dead tillei.ee for a mo ment, aud the.n rho whl ipered nervous ly. "Oh, you rre the man! Oh, what did you think of me?" "I wished that I might hold nn um brella over you for the rest of my life," he sold fervently. Her dimples ciune out lu full force. "I am afraid yuu would get awfully tired," she Hiili', i-i:t her eyes drooiied lie fore his g!:ince. "Come up and e its." Hob said that night ns they parted. "On one condition." said Luttrell as he held the fur lined wrap for the vi sion lu blue, "that you lot me fall in love with your sister." "Fclld.i?" Luymond scoffed. "She's nothing but a kid." "I am old enough to know my own mind, nob." said Felicia with spirit. "Aud what is your mind?" Luttrell asked as they went down the hall to gether. Her ryelushes swept her cheeks nnd hid her eyes. "I don't kuow," she said demurely. "Perhrtps-porhops you had better come and And out." Why tha Will Cost Mors. Five years ago a certain mnn made a will. Ijist week he made another one. The same lawyer drew up both documents. For writing the second will the lawyer charged twice as much as for writing the first one. "Why this difference?" asked the cli ent. "Have you attained such promi nence In the legal profession In the lust five years that you are justified In doubling your fees?" "Not nt all," said the lawyer. "There was twice ns much work on this will as ou your old one. You see, at that time you were a married man and your will was short, for with the ex ception of a few minor bequests ev erything was left to your wife. Changes in your domestic relations have made another will necessary. Yon are now a bachelor or a bachelor's equivalent, a childless widower. It la much harder to write a will for a man of that type than for a married man. The mun with a family usually gives nwny everything he possesses In three or four clauses, but the bachelor di vides his property among so many relatives, friends and dependents and consumes so much time lu doing it that the lawyer Is justified in charging blm double the usual fee."
