Mr. Kenworthy carried away with
him a very attractive picture, a young
girl in short dresses, with her hair
down her back and withal sullicieiitly
developed both physically and In
tellectually to please one who h id come
to manhood. Moreover, the picture
did not fade. The fancy once caught
Is very tenacious. Kenworthy did not
go to see Fdith again, for he could
find no valid excuse to visit a child,
hut tmt a day passed without his see
ing tier in his mind's eye.
One day she received a note from
htm saying that he had thoroughly
tested his new aeroplane nnd was
ready to keep his promise to give her
brother an airing, tie would start
from a Held in which stood the shed
covering tils machine the next after
noon at 3 o'clock. When that hour
arrived a boy jumped the fence and
strode toward the aeronaut. On reach
ing Kenworthy he sajl that his sister.
I'.ilith ntliugliam. iiad sent him. saying
that he would be taken up In an aero
plane. "You're the image of your sister, only
you are dark and she Is light. Are you
twins?"
"Yes." faltered the boy. (iiiaillng un
der tlie Inipiisitive gaze.
Ken worthy's mind eing intent on
his preparations for his flight, he
turned away and when they were
completed Invited the boy to a seat
beside him. They rose slowly, the
latter holding to the machine with a
grip which If strong enough would
have crushed it. The aeronaut cast a
glance aside and noticed that the hand
was white and shapely. But one guid
ing n machine rislug higher and higher
has no time for other observation
than those connected with his flight,
and Jack having a neck at risk be
sides his own felt an extra amount of
responsibility resting upon his shoul
ders. Ills companion sat still, display
ing no fear, but feeling a great terror.
The hills and the houses grew smaller
and smaller below them and thin
seemed hung upon nothing. The a!r
which had been quiet below was
blustering above, and suddenly the
machine tilted like a bird changing Its
course. A suppressed cry escaped the
boy.
"I've kept my promise to your sis
tor." said .lack, "and I think we had
better descend."
No objection being raised, the aero
mmt begau the descent. All went well
till Ihev were w'thln IKi feet of the
ground from which they started, when
something snapped and the speed of
the propellers was visibly reduced. It
was evident from the aeronaut's mid
den pnMIng iipiui levers that something
had happened. Indeed, he found It
necessary to glide on an incline down
upon the earth lie succeeded In do
ing so. and when the machine stopped
running on Its wheels the arms of his
boy passenger were clasped tightly
around hi neck.
II" uncheped them, and then found
that the boy had fainted Kenworthy
to"k 111 ii in his a nns and laid him on
the grass Thinking to rouse him. he
ripped open Id Jacket and unloosened
his collar.
The secret was out. or. rather. It be
gin to come out. for though .lack knew
the boy was a girl he did not know n
great many other thing that he learn

Much at Least the Actor-Critie
VVaa Forced to Admit.
John Hare, the Knglish actor,
once went to see one of Heerhohm
Tmc's infrequent pcri'oi i-.ances of
Hamlet, lie won!. I willingly have
avoided Tree for s mie little time
afterward for reasons obvious to
others who, like him, had seen this
least, impressive of diis actor's roles.
Hare chivalrously remained in his
box to the end of the play. As the
curtain descended on each act he
had dreaded the invitation of his
fellow player to his dressing room,
where the usual courtesies would
have been expected.
Act by act slipped by without any
word from the stage, and Hare grew
: proportionately relieved. As the
last curtain fell, however, and Hare
retired from the box he found a
messenger at the door with Mr.
Tree's compliments, and wouldn't
he come home for a bite of supper
with some friends?
At table Hare parried opening
after opening, yet not once did Tree
refer directly to his Hamlet. Hare
on his part dreaded every break in
, the conversation would bring the
dreaded topic. After a decent time
; he drew away from table to go
I home. Tree accompanied him to
; the hall to put on his coat. "Xow's
i my hour," thought Hare. Xot one
word from Tree. They shook hands
on the threshold, and Hare started
' down the steps in happy relief. Tree
followed him to his carriage. Hare
j heard him in dread. Still the topic
; was avoided. Tree, with cordial
courtesy, opened the door. Hare
I slipped into the cushions of the car
! riage, joyfully heard the door slam
and drew a deep sigh.
; Hut before the horses started
Tree's head was in at the window,
and he said, with blighting suavity:
"At least, John, you'll admit it's
a good play."
Largest Grave In the World.
The largest single grave in the
world occupies just exactly one acre
of ground, which is surrounded by
an iron railing. This enormous
grave is located at Puerto Cortez,
in Honduras, and is the burial place
of a woman. The tombstone occu
pies the center of the ground in
closed, and several wooden figures
representing the deceased are ar
ranged in statue-like form in differ
ent parts of the ground. There
are sixteen of these figures, which
in the evening give the place a
ghostlike appearance. The deceas
ed had died rich and in her will
had specified the amount of ground
to be purchased for her grave and
the manner in which it should be
decorated. She had many curious
notions, and the size and ornamen
tation of her grave were among
them.
