No woman anaii naa nun wm mj permission," said Bob stiffly. Teggy's eyes flushed ominously, and her pretty lips stiffened into a straight Hue. "If you countermand my order, Bob Ilolcomb," ahe flushed angrily, "yon may" Bue choked back a little sob. ' "Whntr "You may keep the ring yoa were going to give me," finished Peggy re morselessly. "Do you mean itr be asked, coming closer to her and looking down Into her wide gray eyes, "Yes," said Teggy hardily. Hokomb turned away with a little droop of his broad shoulders. "Never theless, Peggy, I must countermand the order," he said gravely. Then he went down the steps and disappeared through the stable gateway. Teggy, JJnwood stared after, him with hot cheeks and flashing eyes. Her little brown hands tightened their grasp on the arras of the low chair. "I'm very glad I broke it off," she thought mechanically. "Fancy twlng married to a man with such a nasty temper as Bob Ilolcomb! What a foot I was to fall la love with hlni!" , She sped upstairs to the chints sit ting room, where her mother sat be fore a cozy fire. "Mother, dear, let us go home at once," she began abruptly. "I can't stny la Bob Ilolcomb's house another minute P' 8ho sank breath lessly on the couch. , . Mrs. Llnwood adjusted her glasses and looked quizzically at her daugh ter. "We mustn't spoil Bob's house party, dear," she said mildly. "I told him wo would stay until uonaay, ana we must do so. Have you quarreled with htm, Peggy r "Yes," said Peggy shortly. "What about? Was it worth while r "I'd rnlher not tell, mother," admit ted Teggy guiltily. "Oh, welll" Mrs. Llnwood smiled furtively into ber book. "If I were go Ing to quarrel, Peggy, dear, I wouldn't wear that brown dress, You know it is so uubecomlng, end when a woman disagrees with a man sbo should wear her prettiest frock. Now, the blue linen"- ' ' But Teggy hud flown out of the room and was anxiously surveying herself in the cheral glass la her own pretty apartment. "Mother's right," she sighed miserably. "I look a fright la this frock. It's too late to prctty up' very much, but where is the blue linear . ' ;. Late that afternoon Peggy encoun tered Bess Dane sauntering across the lawn under the shade of century old elms. ... ' "Congratulate me, Peggy, dear," an nounced Bess, airily extending a slim hand. ' Peggy gasped. ; ; v "Not Frederic? Bess, dear" "Not Fredfcrle," Interrupted Miss Dane coolly. "Guess again, Peg, and in the meantime admire my ring. Isn't it the sweetest ever?" ' ' Such an odd ring it was too. In numerable small diamonds formed the petals of a daisy, with a blazing topas for the yellow center, Peggy looked at it with wildly beating heart "It's more suitable for you, Peg, be cause it's a marguerite. Nevertheless it suits your humble servant right down to the ground, as the poet has it" Miss Dane sighed complacently as she seated herself on the grass. ,f. "Come, sit down, Peg,' and discuss the details," she. coaxed.; - "You will be maid of honor, of course." . "Of course, Bess," murmured Peggy miserably, "when when" , "Don't say 'when again," admonish ed Bess mildly. "I'll tell you when 1 know; Bob hasn't even asked me to name the day. There were other and more important matters to go over,; she blushed warmly. "But you and I ,cn talk about the frocks and the wedding and about Bob himself." '''I didn't, even suspect," said Peggy humbly as she nibbled a blade of grass.. ,.. -'t f.V - '', ; i, "No one suspects., It will not be an nounced until I go home. Don't you think him the best fellow in the world, Peg, dear?" ; , ' ' "Of course," cried Pegy1 lightly. "And now. Bess, you must let me go,; for I am going for a gallop." , "Not on Black Dan?" questioned Miss Dane playfully. , ,, .;..., , "No, indeed," said Peggy warmly, "Hs has thrown me twice, you know. I shall ride Pretty Girl." . 1 "Wine child," murmured Boss, sur veying her ring dreamily. As Peggy rods slowly out of the lodge gate and turned into ths lane that was her favorite bridle path her Isst picture was of Bessie Pane st- amlnlng .her engagement ring with loving odiulratUittn M ' " , 1 i PcKgy's warm, impulsive heart swell ed with grii f and indignation. , Light indeed was Hob Ilolcomb's love wheu he could. shift so quickly troms one sweetheart to another! How conven ient for such as he to carry an engage ment ring in his pocket! . Peggy had never seen the ring nntu it flushed from Miss Pane's finger, but nob hud told her it wns the prettiest ring iu the world and that there was do other like it. It had come mat morning lu the registered mall, and he had whispered that he wanted her to try it on after broatrast. And then had come the Cluck Paa k episode, and she had not seen Bob 1 sines. He had absented himself from the luncheon table under idea of bnsi ' ness. No wonder he had been s shamed , to face her! . Pretty Girl ambled down the lane, where the thick hedge on either sldo made a long green arbor through which the late afternoon sunlight fil tered on Peggy's shining hair. A fimmh. rwilNdl on the toDmost bough of a young chestnut, poured out a rap turous song, iut uquiu uup i the girl's ear with brartbreaklug weetuetts, snd she leaned her sunny head down on Pretty Girl's neca ana sobbed. The mare stopped and turned her hond with mltd surprise. Some one wns comlni: down the lane ou a uii ot-ht homo-some one with discontent ed eyes that lighted wonderfully whoa tbey saw Peggy's drooping oeao. "Peggy, deurt What I the matter?" Bob Holeortib was bending over his late fiancee, tnd one strong hand drew her bead to bis shoulder. Teggy Withdrew herself with a ' frightened -ry. "How dare you, sir V she said Indignantly. She was obliv ious to the traces of tears on her pink cheeks, . , "Ob, come now, Peggy," entreated rjolcomb, "I know yoa didn't mean what you said aud" "Bessie Pane has told me of her en gagement to you, Bob," said Peggy icily.' '.,' "Engagement! To Bessie! FudgqH said Holcombe weakly. "Why-r.f course she is engaged to Bob MM. He's staying over at Bwheroft Sfld rode ovor here this morning, and I guests they fixed it up then. Been her ring?" Teggy nodded. There was a singing in her heart, aud she wondered if Boh could hear It "Trashy looking ring." commented Ilolcomb, fumbling in his pocket; then , be drew forth a leather case and ex tracted a ring, the conventional ea gagemcat rlQS-a large solitaire. As ho slipped It on Peggy's willing finger he said tenderly: "Now, mott people would say It was Just like a hundred other engagement rings, but it isn't There isn't another ring like it in the world, Peggy, be cause it means that we are betrothed with It It means that our love, will always overcome any foolish misun derstandings, eh, Peggy, darling?" he murmured as he slipped his srta around her waist And , Peggy smiled nssent with a Unlit of new understanding In her eyes. " . ' Down Growing Roots. The unalterable downward trend of the first rocft is all the more remark able when we consider that the sub sequent ramifications grow out in auy direction wnicn seems to ie uesintDie.v' Many yearn ago Colonel Greenwoir started some experiments by filing horse chestnut seeds In inverted pots. The first root to appear developed downward into the light, but naturally soon shriveled up aud died. Not so tho secondary wots, which had spread into tho soli of tho pot. The tipper parte of the plants, which bad presumably first grown to one side and then shot upward,' coiUiuued to flourish exceed ingly. It is related that for no leas than twenty years Colonel Greenwood kept one of these chestnuts, alive, alt the time in an upBlde down condition as far as ibo roots were concerned. When the plant became too largo for its original receptacle its roots were incased in a chimney pot several of these latter being called into requisi tion as the experiment continued. Finally ths root Was turned ovjr a wall and conducted to a niouud of earth on the other side,' at last being allowed to take n natural course This the long suffering tree readily did nt;d remained for some time a great curi osity with its long arching root.-.-Si'I-entifle American, With the Minstrels. , "Mlstah Walkah, wot am do dlff unce 'tween a trnv'Ier startln' to Tangier an' a plate o' veal hash?" 1 "I give that ono up, George.
