Love and
lice May
By JESSIE DOUGLAS
St..
by alcClurt Newspaper Syndicate.)
Alice saw him coming down the plat
form toward her. She would have
known him anywhere, the way he car
ried his dark head, the humorous glint
In his brown eyes, the sudden smile
that showed his very white teeth.
She wondered whether she could
avoid him.
"Why, Alice May ! I haven't seen
you for a blue moop I" he cried, drop
ping his bag and taking her little
gloved hand in his.
"A blue moon four years old," she
answered.
Then she could have bitten out her
tongue for admitting It.
What are you doing here?" Billy
Rogers asked with that engaging way
of his.
"I live here now."
"Oh, yes. You're married, of
course?"
"Yes," she answered. Crimson swept
over her cheeks.
In that moment she had covered
over all the hurt of four years of re
membrance with a "yes." Somehow
she could not have Billy pity her, have
him think that she still remembered
"And how is your wife?" Alice May
asked.
"Oh, very well," Billy answered a.b
ruptly.
He turned to her with his old eager
way.
"I want to hear all about you. I've
got to wait here for two hours for the
next train. You couldn't you wouldn't
that Is, would you have tea with
me?"
"My my husband Is very broad-
minded, but what about your wife?"
Alice asked quickly.
"Oh, my wife's heard all about you,
She'd be glad," he answered.
They wolked up the main street to
gether, Alice hot and cold In turns at
the monstrosity of the lie she had told
And yet at the moment It had seemed
the only way to save her pride, the
only way to be on equal terms with
Billy again.
For she wanted to hear about him,
what he did, what he thought, what
he felt. Surely It would be no disloy
alty to the woman Billy loved his
wife to spend just two hours with
him on their old terms of comradeship
and understanding.
Alice looked up at him shyly. How
good he was to look at I She liked the
seriousness of those brown eyes, the
clean-cut mouth, the brown cheeks,
even the way his hair grew.
He smiled down at her suddenly,
"Where are you taking me, Alice
May?"
"Here," she said.
"Here" was a tea shop with crispy
fresh dotted swlss curtains at the win
dow, and once they had pushed open
the door Billy cried, "How jolly I"
It had a wide, white fireplace with
shining andirons, oval rag rugs,
spinning wheel and round tubles with
a pot of primroses or wild violets cen
tering each.
They chose a table by the window,
and Alice watched Billy shrug out of
his coat with that old familiar gesture
and fling himself down In the settle
beside her.
"I believe," he said with that glint
of humor In his eyes, "that you brought
me here because you knew how becom
ing it was to you I"
It was becoming to Alice. The neu
tral-colored walls, the pleasant old
time furniture, seemed to be her back
ground. She was not exactly pretty,
but something more than pretty.
"Alice May," Billy said thoughtfully,
when their tea and crumpets and mar
malade had been brought and Alice
poured with that dainty precision of
hers, "I want to know all about that
house of yours and those chubby-
cheeked children I"
She blushed again.
"Yes, two lumps; how did you re
member? I know you have sunny
rooms and that flowered stuff beside
the windows and a piano overflowing
with music and flowers everywhere
now, haven't you? And two rosy
youngsters in what-do-you-call-'ems I'
"I'll tell you all about tlmt," she said
quickly, "but first I want to know all
about you! How's your work and
and your wife?"
"Oh, my work?" his eyes lighted up,
"I'm going down to Mexico shortly.
Think of It, Alice May the adventure
putting a new bridge across the
wilderness. A company's sending me
down there, but it's at my own risk,
I'm keen about it " he stopped,
"There, I'm boring you to death."
"And your wife?" Alice persisted.
He stirred his tea absently and for
got to drink it. Alice knew all at once
that he wasn't happy, that this woman
who had married him was not the
woman for him. She hated her in that
moment.
She thought suddenly of her friend
ship and Billy's. They had walked
and skated, danced and teased each
other. They had exchanged books and
opinions ; Alice had made chatlng-dlsh
suppers and Billy had brought her rib
bon-looped boxes of candies. Yet
strangely enough they had never
verged on love making.
5 Alice knew she could never forget
as long aa she lived the night Billy
had told ber he was being sent to
Alaska. '
"Think of the adventure of it, Alice
May I"
i But she had only thought of the
loneliness of It.
She had smiled to him bravely
enough, told him how glad she was
until she had seen his train pull out
of the station. And his letters that
had began so lengthy had finally
stopped altogether. And then she had
heard he was married.
"What are you thinking of, Alice
May?" Billy asked, breaking into her
thoughts.
"I am thinking," said Alice softly,
that if you're going to get that train
you'd better begin to go for It I"
And you haven't told me about
your husband and those two kids?" he
said a little wistfully. ' ' '
"Would you really like to know?"
she asked.
"I'd like to know anything about
you," he answered.
His voice sent her heart beat hurry
ing. She stood up and gathered up
her gloves. The waitress, coming to
look for her tip, observed with gratifi
cation that the tip was large and the
crumpets untouched.
There wasn't any use of pretending
any longer. Alice realized how weak
she had been to come with him. She
loved him still, she always would, and
now she would have to begin all over
again to put him out of her thoughts.
Hello, Miss Hill," a little girl called
as they came out of the tearoom, "did
pass my zaminatlon in geography?"
"I'll tell you Monday," Alice Hill
answered.
A furious crimson swept over her
white cheeks.
Billy Rogers stopped still.
"What does she mean? Why did
she call you Miss Hill? Are you still
teaching?"
"Yes, I am teaching. And I'm not
married. And I never will be" her
voice caught in a little ob "und now
will you let me go, Billy Rogers?"
He caught her hand and tucked It
Into his arm and his voice was some
thing she could never forget.
"Let you go now that I've found you
again? Pn yon think I'm crazy, Alice
May LUU? I'm going to take you off
with me now to Mexico. We'll be
married this afternoon by the little
preacher In the town where we used
to live"
Alice tried to draw her arm away.
"But your wife?" she whispered.
"My wife and your husbund belong
In the same boat. They were both
made up on the spur of the moment
at least my wife was."
"But are you sure," Alice persisted,
"that you want me?"
"And why, if I didn't, did I stop off
at Hilly Center on my way to Mexico?"
But, after all, it wasn't his words
that silenced her, but the kiss he gave
her behind the dreary waiting room,
when she forgot everything but that
she loved him, too.
EACH FLOWER HAS PURPOSE
Many Peoples Are Intensely Supersti
tious About Uses to Which
They Shall Be Put
The Japanese are very superstitions
about many flowers, and will have
none of them. The orchid, gentian,
daphne and azalla, are utterly pro
hibited for felicitous occasions. There
is also with them an aristocracy of
flowers most sharply defined. The Iris
is of princely dignity, but because of
its purple color must not be used for
weddings. Some flowers in themselves
are regarded as being of ill-omen.
Such Is the camellia, for Instance,
which Is neglected because Its red
blossoms fall oft whole In a manner
which reminds the Japanese of de
capitated heads.
In Mexico the Indian carnation bears
the name of the flower of tho dead,
and when a virgin dies It is customary
for a young woman to carry a gar
land of flowers and sweet herbs in
front of the coffin. The high priest
of the andent Mexicans gave aloe
leaves, traced over with sacred charac
ters, to people going among volcanoes,
to protect them from the incident
dangers.
In China the peony Is regarded
with superstitious reference and pride.
The natives of Samoa, in order to se
cure the admission of a daparted
spirit to the Joys of their paradise,
wreathe the head of the corpse with
flowers.
Prodigals.
William IL Allen writes in "Civics
and Health":
The man who Is prodigal of his
health may work along all right for
years, never realizing until the test
comes that he is running behind In his
vitality. The test may be hard times,
promotion, exposure to cold, heat,
fever or a sudden call for all his con
trol In avoiding accident. His career
may be ruined, because of no health
bank account to draw upon in tlmo
of need; because of vitality depleted
by alcohol, tobacco, overeating, undcr
exerclse or too little sleep.
Critical Criticism,
The young editor had Just. founded a
new magazine one of those highbrow
things with pale gray covers and uncut
pages and was eager for applause.
"What do you think of it?" he asked

"Well," replied the other, wearily,
but warily, "the stuff you rejected
must certainly have been rotten."

Something to
Think About
By F. A. WALKER
BEING NEIGHBORLY
ntHE first and final requisite of civil
Izatlon Is that the people shall be
neighborly. There is no better remedy
for temperamental indigestion than
good-fellowship nothing so productive
Of amity between Individuals and na
tions. When neighbors call to one another
from opposite doorways they are un
consciously strewing the rough path
of life with flowers, making the home
atmosphere brighter and easing one
another's burdens.
The wealth of the world cannot
buy such friendliness.
Such civility as this usually
emanates from the middle classes wito
compose the great majority. They sing
at their work, accept their position in
society with complacency. Among such
people the destitute never starve nor
remain unattended in illness.
The women folk, besides keeping
their homes neat as lilies, mend cloth
ing, darn stockings, and as likely as
not make their own dresses, If they
find by so doing they can save a lltttle
money to help in sending their Wil
liams to college and their Marys, who
have wonderful voices, to the con
servatory of music.
And the husky men build barns, dig
ditches, plant gardens, prune trees,
flght potato bug3 and crank up their
automobiles with punctilious regular
ity for a family ride.
Bridge parties and five o'clock teas
are not so popular with ihem.
They prefer neighborly confrater
nities, the great outdoors, the buds
nnd blooms, the lovely scents of earth
and air, where their Joy can gush out
without restraint.
They are not human counterfeits.
They admit their frailties, but if you
will observe them closely, you will
discover that their redeeming quali
ties, which sweeten their cares, are
far in excess of their faults. For that
matter, If you turn to them In trouble
you will find their kindly deeds and
encouraging words, hand-m-hana.
Comfortably happy themselves, they
delight In giving happiness to others.
Their souls are awake to the growing
need of a friendlier relation, a closer
alliance and a stronger bond of sym
pathy among the various sons of men,
whose greater troubles come from not
being neighborly.
Even If we regard such concord as
no more than a sort of primitive
friendship, it has in it divine princi
ples of excellence which neither querist
nor analyst can argue away. . ,
(, 1923, by McClure Newapaper Syndloate.)
