(C 1114, MClur Xawipapar Syndtoat.)
Louise Westway put back ber Dretty
bead and laughed.
"That's a good one," she said. "Re
minds me of the one about the old lad;
on the train. Tou know ltT"
Me: let's have It" saKgested ber
caller.
"V7 ell, there was an old lady going
to Boston, and all the way there she
kept asking the conductor endless silly
questions. Finally she said. 'Cap'n,
when I get to Boston which end of
tbe car shall I get off atr And the
conductor said, 'Either end. madam;
they both stop there.'"
will Ma sob slapped his thigh and
roared with laughter. His whole body
shook. A frown of displeasure flashed
across Miss Westway's face and she
became suddenly silent. She simply
could not bear to see Will Mason
laugh. He was well bred and of good
family purely he knew It was com-
Jnon and annoying to go on as if he
were having aa epileptic attack every
time he heard something funny. She
actually felt embarrassed for him, and
often wondered why the chair did not
give way beneath him. Every minute
an expected to see It happen, and
sometimes even wished that It would.
Perhaps U would teach him a lesson.
"If a all right to tell jokes." he re
marked a mement later, breaking In on
ber thought, "but, Louise, you're evad
ing me, and I'm not going to propose
to you again. If there's any more of
it done youH have to do It" He was
all seriousness now, and the girl felt
that his words were final.
"Oh, dear, Will, I can't tell you how
I feel about It Sometimes I think I'm
terribly In love with you, and some
time XiMukJDa nsL Jt'a such j big
i slop, and tonight TTvr aiT cross" an3
Irritable. Everything annoys me so."
8he seemed on the verge of tears.
i "Are you ill, dear?" He was all
concern at once and put a cool hand
on her forehead, on her nervous,
twitching fingers. Suddenly she felt
calmer; he was adorable when he was
like that, so tender and gentle and
yet so mascullnely self-possessed.
."Does your head ache?" he asked
after a moment. "Maybe I'd better
go home and let you go to bed."
I "I-.-I don't know what aches. I
think It's my heart," she stammered
out and hid her head In the cushions.
I "Now, don't cry, honey." He
stroked her hair. "Did I hurt you
1 when I snld I wouldn't nronose aaalnt
I'll take it back If I did. and I'll go
on asking you as often as I have to
until you can make up your mjnd
whether yoo want me or not Won't
that do?"
She dried her eyes and looked at
him. How big and manly he was.
After all, what girl could resist him?
Only his laughter stood between
them like an evil spirit trying to sep
arate them.
"Well, don't let's worry any more
about It tonight. I'll be going, and
you run upstairs to bed. Good-night,
dear." He 1 eld her hand a second,
then picked up his hat and left her.
The next day on her way down
town on the street car Louise sat
directly behind two men who were
talking so loud that she could not
help hearing what they were saying.
"Tell you what, Jim," said the older
man, "you'll have to find out one thing,
and that pretty early In the game
marriage Is Just a series of adjust
ments, and there are no two persons
on earth so perfect they aren't going
to do things that get on each other's
nerves once In a while. You know,
when Edith and I were first married,
I simply couldn't bear the way she ate.
She seemed to pick over her food, and
she'd take a spoonful of Ice cream and
put It In her mouth, and when the
spoon would come out, Instead of be
ing empty only the top would be licked
off. I thought It would drive me mad,
and yet I hated to say anything to her.
Things were really getting serious,
when I came home unexpectedly one
day and heard her talking to her moth
er over the phone. 'I've overcome It,
mother,' she said. 'You know how
Harry used to drive me wild the way
he'd forget and Interrupt people when
we had callers? He'd get so Interested
In what they were saying he'd break
right In. Well, It got worse and worse, '
until one day I realized that If I let It
get on my nerves any more we'd land
In the divorce court, so I decided to
pay no more attention to It, and soon
forgot to notice whether he Interrupt
ed or not, and I found out another
thing, all people do It sometimes when
they're Interested and excited, so It
wasn't such a dreadful fault' After
that I realized that If she could be as
big as that, I could, too, so Instead of
my critical attitude I became more tol
erant, and now I really don't know
whether Edith still eats that way or
not. On my word I don't!"
"Well, good luck, old boy, this Is
where I get off." ;
The speaker had . gone, but he had
left a deep Impression on the girl be
hind him. She did her few errands up
town and hurried hack home.
"Honey, Mr. Will comln to supper
tonlifht?" asked black Mlrandy at the
door. " Cause if he comln' I sho' gwlne
cook one o' dem chickens. Lordy, I
Jes" loves to hear dut man laff He
ack like he plumb tickled to death all
over I" Mlrandy rolled ber eyes and
gave a fat chuckle in her throat
"Yes, he Is coming," said Louise,
happily. "I'll call him up and Invite
him right away, and, Mlrandy, make
him an awfully nice supper, 'cause he ;
Is an awfully nice man." j
"He sho' Is, honey," answered the
servant, fervently, "He done gave me
twenty-flve cents las' time he comej
here."
"You old Shylock," laughed Louise, as
she ran up to her room on winged feet
"Funny how a total stranger can j
change your whole destiny sometimes,"
she said to the banister railing, "and
then not even know that he's done It.
Dear old Will," she sighed softly,
"Won't he be happy

Many Volcanic CraUrt
in the United States
When we think of volcauoes we gen
erally associate them with some for
eign country, but here in our own do
main we have within a comparatively
restricted area a group of 63 volcanic
craters. This Is In Idaho and the place
U called Uh "Craters of the Moon,"
because the landscape Is so cold look
ing and so barren f vegetation that It
resembles the landscape of the moon
as It seems to us when viewed through
a telescope. While It Is barren It Is not
without color, for there Is considerable
varlutlon In the tints of the ground
wBlch Is covered with the "frozen"
lava which flowed from these craters
a few hundred years ago. There Is one
field which Is called the Blue Dragon
which Is lava of a beautiful aurelean
tint and with a polish as If It had been
varnished. There are cracks In the de
posit at regular Intervals and all of
similar shape, which makes the mass
resemble the scales of a great dragon.
These volcanic mounds are of various
heights and same of Interesting forma
tion, with considerable variation as to
color. This field Is about three miles
wide and thirty long and has been re
cently dedicated to the purposes of a
public park. While it Is not exactly
accessible, It Is not a difficult place to
get at and at the present time It Is
little known. It is located between
Cary and Arco. I
