One day It became reported that the
pretty Rosa Tburlier was going to mar-
tuniisl ber back on him without even

the young men asked him why be

he replied that since Itosa Tburber
would not dance with him he would
never dunce with any other girl. Of
course this was repeuted to Miss Tbur
ber, who said Unit she was pleased to
save the other girls the pain of being
Invited to dance by such a scarecrow.
The next thing that Rosa beard
about Joe Oreen was that when twit
ted about finding, or rather not finding,
a girl to marry him be bad said that
the only girl In the world be would
care to marry was Rosalind Thurber.
On bearing It stpj aald that ba. bad a
ry that homely Joe Oreen. No ono
would believe it at first, but after sev
eral of Rosa's friends had asked her
about It and sbe had admitted It It was
accepted as a fact They were mar
ried, and the most astonishing part of
the matter followed In a crop of beau
tiful children. Most of them resem
bled the mother, with her rnven tresses
and rosy complexion, and the "red head
ed ones," as those who Inherited from
the father were called, fortunately did
not fall In Ihe fire ns he had done and
were therefore without his blemish In
this respect and without his birthmark.
