"Mr. . Minch !" whispered a still. small voice at the tall floorwalker's elbow. "Mr. Minch 1" As the big blonde man did not rec ognize this "still, small voice" as the voice of his conscience, be bent his head down to observe Lottie Miller, a diminutive bundle wrapper, who was registering great secrecy. "Kin I speak word to you?" Bachelor though he was, Donald Minch knew that when a woman asks to say one word she means a score or more, so he led the girl aside to a quiet spot. "What's the matter. Lottie? Any thing been stolen?" "Nothing like that, Mr. Minch. It's abou,t the picnic." "Aha!" Mr. Minch, as chairman of the en tertainment committee of the annual picnic and merrymaking of the Smith Stores, Inc., to be held at Holliday Beach next Saturday, listened atten tively. You know ' that new girl on the gloves?" "Which one?" Lottie sniffed. "Only one worth no ticing, Mr. Minch. Name's Mary Smith I bet that don't tell you anything, "Don't be sassy, little girl !" warned the floorman austerely. "There Is an other girl, blue eyes, curly hair and little freckles on her nose. A pretty " And be never noticed her!' mur mured Lottie, unafraid. "What about her?" "Mary Smith's been crying off and on all day. She isn't going to the pic nic 1" Why isn't she going?" She won't tell; Just wants to go and can't. It's Just tragic 1" sniffed Lottie, who loved the "movies." Mr. Minch looked disturbed. "Send her to me, Lottie. I will wait here." Lottie sped away on her errand, and Donald Minch looked watchfully out of the corners of fine blue eyes In the direction of the distant glove counter. Presently the dainty form of Mary Smith came toward him. There was timid appeal in her soft glance and scared look as of one summoned be fore high Justice. "You sent for me, Mr. Minch?" He nodded kindly and took a note book from his pocket and poised a sil ver pencil. "Let me see. Miss SmltlH you are In department 89?" he asked. "Yes, sir; gloves." "How long have you been with us?' "Four weeks." He looked at the open page of his notebook. "You know I am chairman of the entertainment committee of the picnic next Saturday?" "Yes, 'sir," in an awed tone. "I am checking the names of those who are going. All employees are ex pected to attend If able. Your name Is not checked. Why?" "I am afraid that I cannot go, sir." "Er domestic objection or trouble?' he asked kindly. Mary Smith smiled sadly and her smile was beautiful. It startled him, 'No home trouble, Mr. Minch. have no home my people are all dead, I am quite alone. I would love to come to the picnic, but I am a perfect stranger here and I have no friends, so I thought I would stay at home." He shook his handsome head. "That will not do at all, Miss Smith. It will do you good to come and get acquaint ed with the other workers. This is get-together party, arranged by Harri son Smith what Is the matter? Are you ill?" Mary Smith was leaning against a pillar, looking white and startled. "Oh, no.. You were saying some thing about Harrison Smith It Is a common name enough, but I bad an uncle by that name." "Indeed? Where Is he?" "We do not know we never knew. He and ray father became separated when they were quite young men and lost sight of each other entirely. Dad always said 'be was sure that his brother was dead he traveled all over the world." "That Is very Interesting Indeed, and now, Miss Smith, I shall expect to see you at the picnic bright and early Saturday morning. Busses will be at the store to run you out to the park. Be here at nine o'clock." 'Thank you, Mr. Minch. You are very kind Indeed," she murmured, her pale checks growing pink under his admiring gaze. If Mr. Minch had known that his eyes were betraying him he would have closed them swift ly, for he was a young man who ap preciated the responsibility of his po sition with Harrison Smith, Inc., and a remote manner toward the young women of the company was a notice able characteristic. "If you are not there, you will be docked," be told Mary Smith. Bo Mary Smith went buck to her counter, observed by all ber fellow workers. "You certainly struck twelve with Minch I" remarked Ella Brady, also at the glove counter. "How absurd I" blushed Mary again, whereupon Ella Brady sent a wink cross the lisle to Lottie Miller, whose kindly Intervention had changed the world for one girl and for one man. What a wonderful Saturday that was. To begin with, It was a perfect ly beautiful duy. Holliday park had been reserved exclusively for the Smith picnic, and with the fresh green of the trees and arus sod the hlua of the surrounding water, tnere was nothing more to be desired for a play ground. As chairman of the entertainment committee, Mr. Donald Minch was here, there and everywhere, directing games, leading the dancing in the pa vilion, always finding time to help some one else have a good time ; mak ing Introductions, seeking out the lone ly and the unpopular ones, making everybody happy. Neither did he neg lect his own pleasure, for did he not dance repeatedly with pretty Mary Smith until her cheeks were as pink as her frock? For his pert. Mr. Minch quite made up his mind that a bache lor's life was dull Indeed. Whereupon he sought out Mary and Invited ber to attend the theater with him xne night the following week. At this particular moment along came Mr. Harrison Smith, a breezy, opulent gentleman, who shook hands with Mr. Minch and looked Inquiringly at Mary. 'A strange, face to me, Mr. Minch. This Is one of our flock, I suppose?" he asked genially. , "Miss Mary Smith of the glove coun terhas been with us a month. She says she has an uncle somewhere in the world who bears the same name as yours," said Mr. Minch, as he pre sented Mr. IluiTison Smith. "Run away, Minch, while I question Miss Smith I may be her long-lost uncle, although I have no strawberry mark on my left arm," said Mr. Smith, 'Ah, my uncle Harrison didn't have one either, but he did have one on his left thumb," laughed Mary. Mr. Harrison Smith calmly held out his left thumb. "What's that?" he asked. ' "Oh 1" cried Mary frightened. "Are you my brother's daughter?' calmly asked the successful merchant "My father was Hobart Henry Smith." "Where Is he now don t answer, my dear. I see It In your face. I did not know what had become of any of his family. I have spent much time and money" ' His genial face was overcast with sorrow. . "We are alone we two." he said after a while. "You must come and be my daughter." Just then Mr. Minch came along and heard the whole story. "Get all the folks together, Minch. I want to tell them about my adopted daughter. And as Mr. Minch, looking depressed enough over the shattering of his plans for a wife named Mary, Mr. Smith drew him aside with a little slap on the shoulder. "There'll be no objec tion on my part If she wants to marry a likely young man In my store, say the general manager, eh Minch?" , And Mr. Minch smiled. NEW AIRSHIP LINE PLANNED Luxurious Zeppelins to Fly Between Spain and South America In Near Future. i Plans for an airship line between Spain and South America have been completed. The king of Spain Is largely respon sible for Its Inception, and the Zep pelin company Is reported to have re ceived a commission to construct air ships with a canaclty of 4,500,000 cubic feet, a length of 825 feet, capable of carrying forty passengers, malls and goods, and having a cruising speed of nearly seventy miles per hour, for this service. The details of these vessels, which are given In the English scientific Jour nal, Discovery, show a luxurious cabin with a social hall and ten four-berth sections somewhat similar to those of a Pullman car. The work of construc tion Is expected to take twi years, and the service will probably be Inaugu rated In 1925. It is anticipated that the Journey from Spain to Argentina will require a little over three days, and the re turn Journey something over four days, the longer time on the eastward course being due to prevailing head winds, say-i the Living Age. Seville will be the European ter minal and Cordoba the Argentine ter minal. Buenos Aires Is an unsatisfac tory landing point on account of its variable winds. In Agony. Everything had gone well with the newly married couple. Directly after their honeymoon they had taken rooms In a hotel and so they had no boupekeeb.'ng worries to mar their happiness. Disillusionment came when they took a furnished home at a seaside town, sweet young Angelica undertaking to look after the cooking. It was far from being a succeiis. The pastry was always as hard as a brick and the puddings well I One duy they had a picnic on the seashore and were sitting watching the waves, when Angelica exclaimed dramutlcally: "Uovr the sea moans I" "No wonder," replied her husband pessimistically, "I have Just thrown some of your cake Into It" He Knsw. Halfway through the second act the heroine, after having been left starr ing with a bunch of children, and gen erally having been "put through It," got tired of this sort of treatmeut and shot the villain dead.
