Everybody knew Miss Jessie Kap per for a person of the highest prin ciples; what was not so well known was that her thrift which was alike hereditary and habitual, forbade use of the principles for every day. She spoke eloquently of the larger vision, world humanity, harmony with cosmic law, above all, the crying need of the uplift She was, further, more than generous of her time and her breath for all manner of causes that might serve as pedestals. Notwith standing, there were chuckles from the unregenerate mass over the wash erwoman's verdict: "Hit ain't only that she wants to be bell-wether or no sheep somebody else must pay for the bell." She looked exceedingly well to the ways of the household her mother was an Invalid, her father away half the time In congress. That gave her added prestige. If she didn't go to Washington with the general. Her mother Was excuse quite sufficient and daughterly devotion was thus an added asset. She paid cash for every thing save her subscription to church and charity for them she set apart the Increment of ber small economies. She loathed extravagance espe cially the Carroll Beaton sort. Car roll also kept house for a rather help less family a pretty, frightened, in capable mother, and a scientific fa ther, who lost himself In his work. Luckily they had a fixed Income a fairish one but Carroll wore clothes It pained Mrs. Grundy to see, admit tedly because she could not afford bet ter. Yet she bought the best of every thing In market not always the cost liest rarities, but the best of Its sort. She kept a maid for her mother, and a man-cook, who also looked after the lawn and the laboratory both, at wages that seemed fabulous to Allyn town, the while doing her own sewing, and even making over her hats. She had little parties, too very simple cake and Ice cream or tea and sand wiches In cherry or strawberry time the fruit serving In place of sweets. There was dancing, too, on the piazza or the grass, to the phonograph that was Mamma Beaton's consolation. New records for It, costly ones at that, further jarred Miss Kapper'B amiabil ity. So badly, Indeed, she said out right to her gossip, Miss Susan Fife: If ever anybody needed a guardian It Is Carroll Beaton unless she gets one of some sort, she'll die on the) town." "She can get a mighty fine one, any minute she'll say 'yea,'" Susan re turned smiling slyly. Miss Karper bridled, saying acidly: You don't really believe John Hunt- ly has serious Intentions? I know he goes there right along but it's to see the professor, same as It has always been " Maybe he's saltln the old cow for the calf but I have my doubtB," from ths gossip. Miss Kapper opened he Hps to speak, but shut them with sif sf ths Jaws on what she had meant Is say, running on after a niln uts to her fall clothes which meant making some few new ones and mak ing wvvr many that had seen service. Dyed, rs-eet and refurnished they would look ew and wear Just as well nd safc saving! Jennie Brltt, ths ltttts )ld maid dressmaker, charged so Btoderately even Carroll Beaton could afford her If only she would. And so obliging always ready to turn, and sootrlve, make the most of every scrip of lace or trimming and never svn4 la a bill till the end of the quarter. Jennie was an Institu tion, said Ml Kapper, and "John Huntly'U egret to that," said Miss Susan. "He roes there every little while to hear hsr tsO sbout his moth- er they wers little girls together, and went to ths sams school. She gave him his first cass when he started law-practice I shall always say she'd never s-gone snd sued the Prices on that last land note If she hadn't want ed to show folk what John could do.' The land money safe In a 7 per cent mortgage, Jenny Brltt felt she could let It ride, a sure provision for age or Illness, meanwhile earning trifle more tbsn she spent to live if she did work so Chen p. She had rooms downtown two, shabby but clean al ways snd rather cheery by lamj, light. John Huntly found them no upon rslny October evening, whose early luck had somrhuw made him lose relish for work. Aunt Jennie would brace him np she was so birdlike, al ways cheery, no matter where the wind sat She would give him tea, just the sort he liked not too strong clear and very hot, with rose leaves she had candled herself, floating In It, dark blurs against her single eggshell cup. They wers In the kitchen brew Ing It when there came a merry rata plan opa ths outer door. Miss Jennie smiled to hear It. "Sit still hers snd don't yoo peep," she adjured her first visitor over her sboul der ss aha vsnlshed, leaving ths door sjar. Next minute ha heard Csmdl say ing gayty: "Ah. ha. Keeping Blind Jack's holiday. Miss Jen 1 Ixm't blame you rsln slways makes me latler than usual. So I had to rush out In It to bring yon these Just a few late peaches, snd soma prsrs not yet mel low. Mother said you must hsvs some ths mlnuts she ssw theto. No csn't sit do wo company coming to supper tonight rite Back my haslet iu want to fill It for somebody else." Word rushed on word Huntly could picture the speaker's vivid face. He had known her all his life. He had never dared tell her his hopes and fears. Possibly because having still his way to make, he had felt her beyond bis reach. Miss Kapper, of whom he saw a good deal, both In business and socially, was perhaps to blame for the feeling. He liked her cordially she was so sensible, like wise so kindly always Interested In his prospects, and overflowing with woman-sympathy for cases of need. She had shed the balm of her sym pathy even upon Carroll such a pity. the dear, brilliant girl was hampered as she was no chance to train herself for a career what would become of ber when her mother died, and the an nuity with her, Miss Kapper could not guess, unless Carroll were wise and lucky enough to make a good mar riage. All this was nebulously at the back of Huntly's mind, when he heard Aunt Jen, saying briskly: "You've got a new frock, child never mind how I know so you bring It here tomorrow. II make it In time for the Aliens' party If I have to sew Sundays.1 "Get thee behind me, Brltt you know I can't afford It" Carroll Inter rupted. I 'There'll be nothln' to pay I'd love to do It good as you are to me," from Miss Jennie. "Bless your heart, I can't afford that any more than the other thing, you angel-sp-arrow I" from Carroll. "One reason I've never come to you for work was It hurts me to see you get so little you cheat yourself In every stitch you set." With that she rushed away, heed less of Aunt Jen's protests. But that lady was scarcely settled to tea cups before another knock, solid, precise but Imperative. Half a minute later Miss Kapper was saying softly: "You put In that lining so beautifully, Miss Ilrltt. I've brought another Job of the same sort And I shall tell everybody how reasonable you are. Why, the tailor asked eight dollars to rellne the coat and you did It for thre4 Now, If you'll put the old lining It Is perfectly good except at the neck, and there's plenty of It, In this other coat, I'll be quite willing to pay you the same price." "You ought to be I" Miss Brltt said firmly. "But I don't put In old linings they never fit. If you're In a hurry I've some stuff would answer " Not for my purpose," from Miss Kapper freezlngly. "You may like to practice extortion I'll be no party to It. Either you use the old material or I'll take the work to somebody else." "Good riddance 1" Miss Brltt ejacu lated. A halt minute later the door slammed hard. At the sound Huntly came from the kitchen saying with an angry laugh: "Aunt Jen my coming tonight was purely providential " "I reckoned so myself," from Aunt Jen. "Gave you a chance to see the difference. I've been scared you'd marry that smooth-tongued skinflint; now, you let her slide and do your best to make a match with Carroll." "Just what I shall try to do with your good help," Huntly answered. giving her a hearty hug. SMELL CARRIED BY CURRENTS Experiments Hsvs Bean Mads to Show the Time Taken for Vari ous Scents to Travel. . The rapid propagation of smells no ticed In the opn air appears due en tirely to currents, since In small tubes, where currents do not exist, the rate Is found to be very small. Experi ments along this line were first under taken In England, and additional data have been reported In this country. With ammonia diffusing through tube a muter and a half long, more than two hours elapsed before the smell could be detected at the other end of the tube. Using different lengths of tubing, It was found that the time required for ths diffusion of the smell was roughly proportioned to the square of the length. Ammonia and hydrogen sulphide were used for these experiments. The presence of ammonia could be detected chemically at a point In a tube after about the same time as when the sense of smell was used for a detector. The rate of prnpaga Hon of the smell of ammonia was not markedly different when this had to pass along the same tube either hort .ontally or vertically downward. With camphor, however, while the rates horizontally snd downward were about the same, the speed upward was about twice as greut. The smell given to Iron and brass by rubbing these with the fingers was also tried, hut gsve no definite results. Queer 8heep. You are so used to seeing our domes tic sheep with tails which are "nothing to spf-ak of," that you will hardly be lieve that there are sheep In some arts of ths world with tails which weigh as much as 40 to 80 pounds!
