Cllve Rumball, vigorous, well-built young man of twenty-eight, was ruddy of cheek and bright of eye In spite of his hours Indoors as junior member of the law firm of Smith & Jenkins. Now he was spending three weeks of his late summer vacation at the home of his uncle, Samuel Todd, by whom he had been reared a man whom nothing would induce to desert hla farming estate in the country for more than a few days at a time. "What do you say to taking In the state fair tomorrow?" asked the uncle over their leisurely breakfast on Sunday. "I've arranged for my usual exhibits apples and potatoes and so forth. I'd like you to go along." Cllve Rumball's ruddy cheeks grew perceptibly ruddier. He was well aware of the fact that the state fair was booked for the following week on grounds Just outside the state capital in the next county. The roads and village streets in the surrounding country had been so placarded with notices of the fair that only a blind man could have remained In Ignorance of the fact that it was to take place and that it was to "eclipse all previous state fairs in magnitude and splen dor." Td like to go with you, uncle," began Cllve, rather feebly. "But, of course, I can't say I take much Inter est In that sort of thing. I" Frank ly Cllve loathed state fairs, and he had good reason to do so. "It's a little different in your case," Interrupted the uncle. "Fact is, I'd be disappointed if you didn't go. You see, am sending up an exhibit of the Cllve Rumball apples, quite a lot finer than anything else we've ever been able to produce larger and redder and juicier.' They are of nil odds the finest apples of their class. It will be a feather In your cap as well as mine, and with the farmers all talking about the Clive Rumball apples they will be greatly Interested to see the one for whom they were named." The uncle did not heed the look of protest and entreaty on his nephew's face. He smiled remlnlscently. "Yes, It was Just about twenty-three years ago when I first perfected that apple, and you'd Just come to live with us. I'd been working hard trying to get the right strain, and I'll tell you I'd come pretty near being discouraged more than once. You were a pretty little boy with round, red cheeks, looked at the apple and I looked at you, and It come over me In a flash, That apple would have to be called the Cllve Rumball. I didn't know," added the uncle with the embarrassment of pride, "that it was going to be one of the most famoua apples In the world. I didn't know that it was going to, as it were, make the name of Cllve Rum ball famous." Cllve Rumball himself had heard this story often enough before and he had endured for many years the em barrassing consciousness of bearing the name of one of the world s most famous varieties of apple. In school, until the boys had learned to know the strength of his arm, he had been known as "Apples," and frequently Jesting allusions through college had been made to his ruddy apple cheeks. "I hope,' said Clive, trying not to show the least suggestion of his an noyance, "I hope, uncle, that I may be able to make the name Cllve Rumball known as something besides that of a red-faced apple." "Hey I" said the uncle, who had never dreamed that the situation was embarrassing for his nephew and not quite understanding this protest. "Oh, well. Don't worry about that. You'll never lack a reputation. People will always be glad to meet you, Just to see what the little apple-faced boy looks like when he has grown to be a man." , If the name had been anything less usual than Cllve and Rumball the task of becoming dissociated with a fa mous apple might have been less dif ficult. If the world-famous apple had been the Thomas Smith he might have passed unnoticed as Tom Smith. But there was no getting around Clive Rumball. It meant an apple and noth ing but an apple to millions ef farmers far and near, Just as surely as Dan Tucker means a dance or Jenny Wren means a bird. The following Monday h dutiful Cllve Rumball drove over to the fair grounds near the state capital with ' his Uncle Samuel Todd. Samuel Todd had made his small fortune as the conservative partner of a brokerage office, but his hobby bad always been farming In general and apple raising In particular, and be never felt more at home than with a group of pro gressive farmers. "I want you 'to meet my nephew," said Mr. Samuel Todd with a smile as he clapped a broad-palmed hand on the back of a white-bearded old farmer. "My nephew Cllve Rum ball. "That sol" exclaimed the farmer, beaming at the nephew. "Wall, ef you're as sound as the Civic Rumball apple, , you're all right." And he lauched long and loud at hit own comment - The remark was only typical. Before Cllve and his uncle had been on the fair grounds for a haJf hour Cllve Rumball. , had been Introduced at least ten times to as many farmers who all cracked some sort of Joke about ths famous apple which had been named for him. They had parked their car and were directing their steps toward the building where were exhibited various fruits and vegetables along with a new and improved Cllve Rumball from Samuel Todd. - ."There's my friend, Mr. Jennifer," said the uncle, pausing as he saw a man alighting from a car in the park ing field. He was in agitated con versation with a young and animated woman, so Samuel Todd did not in terrupt. Mr. Jennifer was apparently trying to get the young woman to alight and the young woman was re sisting. Clive Rumball became some what interested. Though he caught but a blurred outline of her face, he felt a keen attraction. Besides, he saw that the locks that showed beneath ber lit tle cloche were red red like burnished copper. And Cllve Rumball had a fail ing for red-haired girls. Presently the farmer, Mr. Jennifer, got out alone, sighed deeply and the car turned while the girl at the wheel threw Mr. Jennifer a kiss. Mr. Jennifer caught up with Cllve and his uncle. Let me introduce you to my nephew, Cllve Rumball," began the uncle, importantly pronouncing the name, but Mr. Jennifer was too preoc cupied with his own affairs to hear the rest He merely bowed to Clive and his uncle and said, "By heck 1" "That gal of mine," he went on. She's all right, but she's stubborn. But, then, red-haired gals usually are. All I wanted was that she should get out and go around with me. I wanted to Introduce her. But she had made up her mind she wouldn't. So she said she'd drive around and call back for me Instead. I've got a mighty fine showing of carrots," he continued, ad dressing Samuel Todd In particular, - And Clive Rumball wandered along while the two agriculturists discussed apples and carrots. It was about then that Cllve Rum ball summoned courage to slip his moorings. Suppose you and Mr. Jen nifer look around awhile and I'll meet you later, say at the Judging stand at about twelve." It was' agreed, and Cllve Rumball, hoping that no one would recognize In him the godfather of the rosy-cheeked apple bearing his name, wandered back to the parking field. He strolled around it, wondering whether by chance he might find, the red-haired daughter of Jennifer. He was still looking when a motor coming around the wrong direction honked violently to him. "Excuse me," said the driver, who proved to be no one in the world but Mis Jennifer. "You were with my lather when he went oT. Will you see him again?" "I expect to," said Cllve with bow. "I expect to meet Mr. Jennifer and my untie at twelve." "Well, will you tell father, then,' said the girl, "that I've gone. I told him I wouldn't come, and he knows bate these fairs and why and now I'm going. I don't know just where, only I'm not going to hang around this place. And that's that." "I suppose It is," said Cllve with laugh. "In the meantime, why do you hate state fairs, Miss Jennifer?" "Why shouldn't I?" threw back the girl, and then fearing lest an atten dant might find her with her car faced the wrong way, she added : "I'll tell you, but not here. I've got to turn. Hop in, and I'll set you down wher ever you are going." , Clive got In beside the girl with red hair and, having explained that he was going nowhere in particular but that he had Just drifted back toward his own car, they started out of the grounds and along a country turnpike. "I hate state fairs," she explained, "because my name's Deborah Jennl fei" " She paused to see if this brought a smile of recognition to the face of her companion. "You are ap parently not a farmer," she went on. 'If you were you would no doubt have made some remark about carrots and red hair. You apparently don't know that the Deborah Jennifer Is the most celebrated variety of carrots In the country maybe in the world. My father perfected it. He named for me when I was a little girl be cause I had red hair. I'd like to dye It sometimes not that I mind being red-haired, only I do mind the Jokes that people crack when they know my name Is Deborah Jennifer. Honestly, it is enough to make me want to get married, just so I could be called by some other name." Then she added quickly, "Only, of course, I don't in tend to. I don't like men and I shaD' ever be married." "I should think," said Cllve with a smile, "that that would be your best way out of It Unfortunately my own name is Cllve Rumball" He got no further. "Heavens," cried the girl. "Then you're an apple. And I suppose people kid you about being apple faced only of course you aren No," added Miss Jennifer with a twin kle in her bright blue eye, "I couian' think of marrying you even If you wanted me to." All of which shows that red-haired girls are Just as apt to change their minds as any one else, for before an other summer had brought another state fair every farmer's magazine throughout the country had published the pictures of Cllve Rumball and his bride. Deborah Jennifer, under a head ing to the effect that an apple had mar ried a carrot Sure a Relief.
