SALLY ARLINGTON was not of a
curiotts turn of mind, but her In
qultiltlveftegs hud mastered her at last,
"Whal In the world Is that man look
ing torV" she asked of tlie matron of
the babies? codvaieBcent home.
The matron turned her eyes toward
the rich, sloping lawn that rolled away
from the porch toward the wuter he
lew, .she laughed at the question.
"A four-leafed lover," she said.
"But he does it every time be comes
up," persisted Sally. "I buve watclu
him from our garden, and I've been
consumed with curiosity."
"It's funny about him poor chap,"
explained the matron. "His little girl
has been here all summer convalescing
after a winter's illness. She has no
mother, and the father is all hound up
In the little thing. The youngster has,
;i notion that If her daddy could And
a lour leafed clover and give it to bet
she could go home with him soon.
Such a notion! We have all sorts of
whims in our sick children."
Sally was watching the young man
searching the thick clover patches.
"He'll never find one there, but do
you suppose he'd like to look in our
lawn?"
The matron was matter-of-fact.
"Why not V Do you grow them?"
"X mi, not exactly; but there seems
to he a good crop of them this year,
as 1 find one very (line 1 go across the
lawn." Sally told her. "I'd gladly find
one for him, hut that Isn't the point.
Von must find II yourself."
The man was coining toward the
porch, Ilia lack of success evident on
Ills finely cut features.
"I.s your little Kileen to be disap
pointed again'" asked the matron.
He nodded. "I'm a dub lit this sort
of thing, I fear. I never found one In
my life."
The mfilron look the occasion to in
troduce him to Sally, and she laughed
ill Ids lack of luck.
"Would you like to try our garden ?"
she asked. "I've watched you more or
less all summer, and If I'd known what
you were doing gild why I might
have planted some so that you couhl
BOl miss them," she joked.
The man looked at her. "Are you
serious about having them In your
lawn?" he asked eagerly. "That kiddie
of mifle is obsessed on the subject."
"Perhaps It's a complex," ventured
Sally.
"It's something feminine, anyway,"
the man I old her.
After a few more words the pair of
newly acquainted young people left
the matron to her charges and went In
search of a four leafed clover.
True I" her prediction, Sully picked
up the extra leafed clover Inside of ten
minutes, nml the man snt looking at her
with admiration, She handed It to
him.
He took It. "nut. I must find one my-
seir," he explained, not, however, offer
ing to give her back the good-luck
omen Instead, lie opened a tiny note
hook ami put It carefully within.
Eventually, and with Sally almost
leading bin to the spot where It grew,
he t, ii ml a clover with four leaves.
Toe smile that wreathed lis face was
Worth much to Sally. She had known
the little Eileen ever since the home
for convalescent babbie bad opened up
iii their neighborhood In the spring,
and now she could see where the wee
one had Inherited her cluirnilng smile.
"I'll take It to Kileen at once, and
then I must hurry back to town. Il Is
(Utile a trip out here to the country,
hut since the youngster bins no mother
1 have to do double duty, especially
win n she Is 111," he said, sadly.
"I'll try to sec much of her If It will
help you." snld Sully, generously.
"Will It?" asked the man, thank
fully. "1 shall never forget your kind
ncss."
If the matron bad been of a ro
mantic turn of mind she might have
noticed the added devotion of Sally
Arlington to the little girl whoso father
had found her o clover.
"And you do think I may go home
soon. Miss Sally?" asked the little one
a few days after her rocelpt of the
four leafed clover.
"You are getting pink cheeks and
your appetite Is good, srt I think It
wen t be long now, Kileen," console!
Sally,
"And Hi clever did It I told daddy
so," Insisted the child.
Sail) told the father what
girl had said.
"I'd bate to tell you what
hope the four leafed clover
for me." he said, earnestly.

opened up to me since I folded that
green charm within the leaveg of my
netel k" he went on, looking straight
Into her a) es.
Bally .'.t opped hers utuler the gpgV Of
his earnest ncss.
" b don't uT Why can't you tell
me?" She asked.
The man was silent for so long that
Salty wondered If she had Insisted too
much on his confidence.
"If I were nre that you would like
to hear." he said. "I think I should
tell yon here and now. It It seems
so soon. And there Is so much to
consider.
"M il 1 tell you tbat I love you?"
Sally nodded like a child as she
rataed her big eyes to his.
"And we'll talk about oil the rest
afterw nrtls." he said.
They did not get to "all the rvst"
that da There seemed to Ih so many
. of saying merely, "I Icvc you."
"And my .lover brought urs till gootl

Chicago, ill. Casualty totals report
ed for the tornado which swept
through southern Illinois, Indiana,
Kentucky and Indiana after lashing
eastern Missouri Showed 638 killed in
Illinois. 08 in Indiana, 34 in Tennessee,
2'i in Missouri and 18 in Kentucky.
Murphysbpro, ill., headed the list
with 19 known dead. The exact toll
of the srorm. Red Cross officials ad
mitted, probably never will be known.
There were some victims actually an
nihilated In the wind terror. Others
Wi re removed to different towns. And
there have been scores of visitors in
the section who will not be missed
for weeks.
Saturday and Sunday the guant, hol
low eyed survivors in the storm area
of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Ken
tucky and Tennessee stood solemnly
by the yawning death pits in their
hist good-bye to wives, mothers, chil
dren, sweethearts, snapped into eter
nity In a twinkling by the awful force
of the cyclone.
Everywhere in the five Btates which
felt the death laden breath of the
storm, lite victims, many unidentified,
were committed back to the earth
from which they came -laid to rest
separately, by twos, by threes and
by dozens, in soldier dug graves. And
simple white crosses, conjuring up a
picture of other such symbols acroHS
the Beg, stood forth to mark the trail
of devastation.
The total property loss has not been
compiled, but will likely be more than
112,000,000 in Illinois alone. With some
$8,000,000 in Indiana and about a
million each in Missouri, Tennessee
and Kentucky, the property loss is
likely to exceed $1S,000,000.
