THE DALLES, OREGON Glass - Lime, Cement, MISSING SKUiiiUi. It Laid tbe Foundation for a Love Story Before It Turned "Up. The first night in the new house iow in effabiy dreary it was ! May day had dawned with blue sky and vrin'ds full of treaoherous balminess, but Ions before noon it had'clouded over, and with the dusk a fine, needle-pricking sort ol rain had set In, which, without making much outward show, had yet contrived to drench us girls through and through as we made our way along the streets with the parrot's cage, the music box and the best duplex lamp with the jeweled glass shade, the three household treasures which forthe life of us wo dared not trust to the tender mercies of the truckman, in spite of his manifold vows and declarations that be had moved the very best families in New York, and some of 'em every May day for ten yearn. V e eked out our painfully insufficient in come, Beulah and I, by letting lodgings, and we did not always have luck in the busi ness. To speak paradoxically, the new house was an old house, and not in the best of re pair. The yard gate was oft its hinges ; one window blind banged distractingly against the north sido whenever the wind took a lurch in that direction, and as Beulah en deavored to warm a can of cold tea above the. flickering gas jet we could distinctly hear the rain leaking through on tbo, floor above or heads with a ''drop-drop" like the ticking of a clock. As for me, I had cut my fingers trying to open a box of sardines, and was dolorously endeavoring to stanch the blood with a t. from immaculate pocketrhandkorchief when the last load came. , The truckman and his assistant were tired and cross, and a little the worse for beer; the old horse was played out; t; rain drove harder aud harder, and the wind blew out the shadcless gas in the hall just as the little old assistant dropped the basket that contained the best crockery wilh a irash. And wo were glad enough when at .cngth the last bundle of disorganized stove pipes was flung into the basement hall, and the truckman vanished like an ugly dream Into the mist and darkness. It was not until tho next day that we dis sovered the trunk. There it stood up against the wall, just exactly as if it belonged there a snug, square box, neatly covered with canvas, and bearing innumerable hotel labels, for eian and domestic, pasted on it, while the 3ne initial "C" faced us at either end in black paint. "Gracious me!" said Beulah. "What's this?" "Perhaps it belongs to one of the lodg ers," said I. "They don't any of 'em begin with 'C,' " reasoned Beulah. "I mean their names dont." "It's a mistake, then." said I. "Some one will bo sending for it directly." ' But day after day overlapped one another, nd no one sent for tho trunk. "The truckman ought to know," said Beulah. "Wo haven't got the truckman's ad dress.' said 1. . "Xo, to bo sure," sighed Beulah. "I wonder what is in it-t anyway," said I. "Do j ou know, Beulah! I almost think that one of that bunch of rusty kivs we found in the basement pantry would lit it." "Wo oughtn't to think of such a thing," said Beulah, severely. "Why not?" said I. ''Suppose the con tents are perishable?" "It would bo equal, to highway robbery," remonstrated Beulah. "No, it wouldn't," said I, "and the old thing is so dreadfully in one's way. If we could only get it up into the store-room bo fore the new lodgers come." "Let's try," said Beulah. So between us we hoisted the trunk up two flights of stairs and put it away in the angle of a chimney. "It's awfully heavy," said Beulah, "ana there's something rattles inside of it." "I've heard of dead bodies being cut up and parked in trunks sometimes," said ITin a whisper. "Letty, don't talk nonsense," said Beulah with a shuddef. We had had the trunk about a week in our possession when I went back to the' old house that we had left to get tli::,;c Deu Key wnicn naa . somenow been over looked on the top shell of a corner cup board. Mrs. Dawson, the old lady who had mo- .d fn, was disconsolate. - - I've lost my boarder," said Bhe, "al ready." Dear me I" said I, "that's a pity." -"As nice a young doctor as ever you set eyes on," sid she, "as wanted the front room for an office and the back parlor f--bed room." 'That would have been very nice," stw i. "And all because ha couldn't find his boaes," said Mrs. Dawson. 'Couldn't find his bones?" eohond I. Surgical things and anatomies. t-ou know," explained Mrs Dawson. lla as good as intimated as .I'd stole 'cm. Now, what sort of use could 1 make of a iot of bones all wired together? Is it likely I'd steal 'em I" Mrs. Dawson was so solemn aud plaint ive and tho idea was so supremely ridicu lous that I went oft into a spasmodic fit of giggling. I could not help it, standing there on a chair, with half my head and shoulders in the closet. I hope she didn't bear me! However, I found my bed-key and de parted, and when I got home I told the story of tho young doctor and tho bones to Beulah and even gravo Beulah laughed. "But I'm sorry that tho poor old lady has lost her boarder," said Beulah, gently. "So am II" I cried, overwhelmed, by a 'dden remorse; " and I wouldn't have 'auguea u 1 could nave helped it, Beulah But I couldn't help it 1" Half an hour afterward I heard Beulah Tailing mo. Bat I did not answer, for the very good reason . that at . that especial moment I was a martyr to curiosity. To speak truth, I was on my knees before the mysterious trunk, trying to fit one of the equally mysterious bunch of keys to it. uu . uwi juab ictteutsu LUttL musk - ttggratvttb- I ing stage when a key had been got in and absolutely declined either to turn the lock or to come out again. .

'I'm sorry I opened tho trunk," said X. "but I was so dreadfully, awfully curic.u to know what was in it." Believe me, Miss E.rry," said the young doctor, "I shall not prosecute you." "It was Very wrong of Lettie," said solemn Beulah. '.'-. "I'm always doing something wrong," said I, disconsolately. "But it was so very thoughtful of you," said the doctor to Beulah, "to reineinbci that' this trunk might possibly belong tc me. It sets all the little complications at rest at once." "And you won't give up Mrs. Dawson's rooms' now?" said Beulah-kind Beulah, who was always thinking of other poopie. "Most assuredly not," said Dr. Carson. But after they had gone away I went up to my room and cried. The idea of being caught I, a growh-ur young woman opening trunks with bunch of false keys on the sly ! And I could not be comforted until Dr. Carson laughed me out of my scruples and mortification. He came often to the house to call after ward. He said he owed so much to Beulah. And one day, when I was feeling verj cross and miserable, Beulah came to me. "Letty," said she, " guess what Dr. Car son asked mo to-day." "It would require no fortune-toller tc guess," said X. "He asked you to marry him, and he has made a wise, wise choice - And I hugged and kissed her tenderly. "What nonsense!" said Beulah "and I five years older than heat the. very least. No, dear little Letty, he asked mo if 1 thought you would be. willing to ensure the trials and privations of a young doctor's wife." "And did "yu say yes?" I cried, coloring like a rose.
