QCTSSORS, needle, thimble and
jj tongue were unusually busy that
afternoon. The I'lnilk-o Sewing wi
dely had a reputation for promptness,
and tbe Thanksgiving box of clothing
for the "deserving poor waa not ready
" Mr. Tarkinson waa the preaident of
the Pimlico Sewing aoclety. Mm. Par-
kinaon hod alwaya been its president.
She waa a woman of the Napoleonic
order, to whom a kindly fute had at
yet brought no Waterloo. In all )
clal affairs the Tillage had tacitly ac
cepted her dictatorship aince the day
. her first huaband, Hev. Joshua iligg"
installed her aa miatreaa of the old
red brick manse among the elma. Hev.
Joshua had succumbed to heart disease
a few months after hi advent in the
village, end, although Mr. Parkinson
was only a grocer In a small way, the
good lady had ever exacted a full meed
cf honora due her former exalted posi
tion. At first the conversation waa deaul
tory in character. Hut like the prelim
inary skirmishing that uelitrs In the
real battle, it but preluded the discus
sion of matters pertaining to the gen
eral welfare of Plmllco and ita inhab
itant a.
Mrs. Parkinson had something of im
portance to communicate. Sundry lit
tle hlnta and tbe bobbing of her
brad, and the pursing of her thin lips
evidenced the fuct. Even the decided
snip of Mis. Parkinaon'a scissor car
ried ita note of warning.
The president of the Pimlico Sewing
society did not seize an opportunity to
address her sister workers; like her il
lustrious prototype, she created oppor
tunities. "Mrs. Blythe Isn't coming to-day, not
beln' very well. I've bad no word from
Miss llecky, so I suppose she'll be here,
llcfore Miss llecky cornea " here she
lowered her voice impressively "I've a
word I Just want to say to the ladles
here. I haven't a thing to say against
Miss llecky, except Just this: Miss
llecky i a-gettln' along In years, and
II makes me down tick to see a womnn
of her age a-goln' on so. Why, she's 30
If she's a dny, and she's a-goin' out to
partie an' bavin' young men company
like she wasn't more than 19. I
feel like a woman o' her age ought to
have more sense than to be wearin'
bata with all kind o' flowers an' tenth-
ers on 'em. Hut, if she hasn't, why
seme one Just ought to tell her. That's
what I think."
Mrs. Parkinson had grown excited.
Her low, mysterious utterances had
risen to full oratorical crescendo. Hhe
wiped her glasses deliberately, put
them on and looked around.
Mrs. Morrow's scissors had ceased
cutting. Khe possessed only one pair
and they alwaya squeaked.
"Mis' Parkinson, ye hev Jest give ut
t'rence to what I've been a-thinkin' this
four years buck. Ilecky'll be 31 im x'
spring, 'cause I know she wuz born
the very day old Deak'n Toutelotte'a
calves died, fer I remember ex though
'iwus yest'day how the deak'n "
Mr. Morrow hud a reputation. Some
one considerately rescued the meeting
from the intricate mazes of one of her
reminiscent tales.
"My mother wasn't married till she
wuz 3z, but lal she hadn't wore posies
in her bun net for so long 'fore thet
time 'she felt ez though ev'ryone in
the meetln' house wuz eyeln' her when
she wore her weddin' biinnet with a
bunch o' white flowers on it."
"I've been keerful about soyln'
anything thet might cause trouble by
comiu' to the year o' Mi' III the an'
llecky," Mrs. Iligge remarked, "but I
hev been thlnkiii fer some time thet
fer a woman clost to 10, all thut dress
In' up could scarcely be favorable In
the eyea o' the Lord. Hut I said noth
Iti' about it."
"Near 30!" old. Mr. Tracy exclaimed,
with ome cnrn; "Ilecky'll never see
30 again. She's one age to my Joe, an'
he' been married goin' on nine years
now. Why, llecky an' Jane Thompson
air the same age, an' Jane's bernwenr
ln' notbin' but gray an' brown, fer
years; a: she's gcttin to look real old,
too."
"Hut, mother," young Mrs. Traey
said, "surely you do not think Mis
llecky looks old?"
"No; I must say llecky doe not show
her age; but shu' a-gettin' along all
the same. An' las' summer, after I saw
them red flower, I Jest niude up my
mind to speak to llecky, an' ay I:
'Don't ye think red is Jest a llttie gay
fer je'i" says I, an' she luffed. "Why,
I'm not a gra ml mother, ye know,' says
he, A grandmother! An' she not eten
keepiu' steady company ez fur ez I
know. Hut it's the way she bus young
men a-comin' to sec her thet I don't
like. There wur Seth Adiiiua a scttiti'
up reg'lnr with her all l.ia' winter, an'
ev'ryone thought they'd, be married,
n' nothin' ever come of It. An' Mis'
Clark' nephew, he. took to goin' there
fer another spell, nn' nothin' come o'
thet, either."
Then Miss Flint no one seemed In
remember the time when this good old
woman was young -spitefully Tit t off
the end of her thread, and peered
through her glasses at the Irregular
stitches she was putting lu the apron
of some poor child who presumably
would prefer the useful to the beauti
ful. ""Twotildn't le no surprise to me,"
he said, "if Miss llecky didn't keep a
light hiiriiin' In the parlor ev'ry Sun
day night o' purpose to make folks
think she was ha in' company."
"Twotildn't surprise me none," the
Widow Jenkiin niired the ladies. "I

offer aeeep's it. Xobo ly ain't breakiii'

seen to exchange gluncc, for it was
quite well known In the village that tbe
eldest sou of the Widow Jenkins had
been refined by Miss Itcbecca the week
before he married .Mariiidy Flint.
Ily this time, altliousii no vote bad
been taken, it was plainly demonstrat
ed that Miss Itebeeca III the wus to be
summarily relegated to the rnnks of
the elderly unmurried ladies of i'lm
llco. Th president's heroic face fairly
beamed. Despite the readiness with
which the sisters of the icwing society
always responded to her calls, she had
counted on some opposition. Miss
III the was a popular young woman.
"Well," she suid with a self-satisfied
smile, "Mrs. Traey an' me talked it
all over some days ago, an' we decided
then that Miss llecky has been behav
ln' like a ' in her teens long enough,
nn' we are going' to glvs her a hint she
can't help takin. Squire Larkin's sis
ter, June llest, hn stepson a-comin'
here to visit the squire: an' the -quire'
wife be in' but poorly, she wants we
an' the girls to get up a party for him.
I don t know vwirther you ve ever
heard Mis' Larkin speak o' Dr. Sum
merlon. He comes from out west, an
this Is his first visit. They say he is
doin' real well out wet. Ilettie an'
Kvvie are goin' to give a big dance fer
him In their pa a new burn 1 haiik.givin
night. All the young people's to get
Invites to-morrow; but I Just told the
girls to leave out Miss llecky, an' they
done so.
"I guess Mis Ilecky's pretty apt to
tek a hint. llecky ain't been much of
a fool ez I kin xe." This time it was
the owner of the musical scissor who
spoke. "Well, good land alive! If there
ain't Miss llecky herself a-comin' right
in; nn' she's got a strange man a-wait-
in' fer her at the gate. Wonder who
It can be!"
And then Miss Rebecca Wythe came
in, looking happy and rosy, and not a
day over its. She wore a trim winter
cont, and two bright yellow wings
were sticking straight up In the little
jnunty felt hat that perched defiantly
above the wind-blown waves of Mim
Itebeeca' shining black bair.
I can't stay to-day," she announced.
"I am aorry, for 1 know how much
there Is to be done; and mother was
not well enough to come. Hut, you
know. Squire l.nrkin has a nephew just
come to town to spend the holidays.
We did not know him; but it seems he
met brother Tom out west, and so he
came to see us as soon as he hud seen
his uncle and aunt. Nothing would do
but that I must take him around this
afternoon to see his old friends."
Mrs. Parkinson's face was a study.
She said nothing; but Miss Flint had a
malicious light in her eye as she a-iked:
"What air ye golu' to do, llecky, on
Thaiiksgivin'?"
"It 1 our turn to go to Sister Mar
tha's thlyear. We'll take the train in
the morning, you know, and come back
the next day."
Then Miss Ilebecca laughed merrily,
as she added: "Oh, just let me lellyou.
llrothrr Tom actually made that mini
promise to spend Thanksgiving with
Sister Martha to taste her cake. You
know what a famous cake iniiker Mar
tha always Ins been. Hut 1 niliM hurry
away. You all look so cozy in here, and
so industrious); It mukes me feel quite
good for nothing."
Miss Hlythe left; and a hush fell up
on the nssembly.
Then there was a rush for the win
dow. Yariouscnmplimcutnry remarks
were made about the personal appenr
auce of thedoetor from the west, and
a few uncomplimentary things said
about the deep-laid scheme of his de
signing companion. These last did
Miss Itebeeca great injustice; for she
had never even heard of the existence
of the doctor from the west, until his
unceremonious entrance into her
father' house nn hour before.
Mrs. Parkinson and the meek-look-If.g
lady scorned to "put themselves
out" by going to the v iudnvv for a peep
at Miss Itly the's gallant escort. The
announcement regarding the disposi
tion of the village puest on Thanks
giving had so broken into the plans of
the good president that anuicmcnt
and Indignation stilled her voice; but
there wna a heightened color In her
cheeks, and the accelerated speed of
her needle told its own story.
The meeting adjourned at an earlier
hour than usual, much to the- relief of
.he ladies. On the vthole. the afternoon
hud been an uncomfortable one.
Hut Mrs. l'arkiusiiiidid not ackiHiwI-
i'dgedefeat. F.arly the following morn
ing she "ran in" to consult with Mrs.
Tracy, one of her stanch supporters.
As a result of this conference the
Thanksgiving dance waspjstpoued for
several days, and the iN'etor received
an Invitation, which, however, be did
not accept. The young people on t heir
way to the party tun him walking
with rapid strides in the direction of
lVacon JMvlhe's; am! it was known
that Miss Ilebecca hail a new silk waist
and a large knot of pink ribbon for her
hair.
That was only the beginning. AM ef
forts to entice the oung man from
the dangerous Miss llebeccf proved un
availing. Indeed, be nppran d to spend
far more time at the Itlii the home than
he did with his good une'e and aunt.
11c had even been seen out snow-balling
with Miss Itcltccca's two young
rephcwK. For once the bold plans of
Mrs. Parkinson failed.
Her principal coadjutor hud the
hardihood to advocate a chiini:e in the
line of operations. This lady's daugh

THE BEACHES' VISION
BY ELLA W. rEATTIK.
(Cooyrifhted by the Dally Btory Pub. Co.)
Hudson Irvington Ifeach wae deetined by
hie father for fir tat thma: To which end
he educated him liberally. So Hud, emerg
inff from academic halU, looked about "n
life with a natroniung air and waited for
Opportunity to come along and make him
a pretty bow. lie waited a good n.aoy
yearn, but the never etepped before him
or Menied to notice him in the leat. Hie
people all died end left htm nothing but
the memory of honorable livee, and poor
Hud. horribly lons-ly, married a girl he
knew after ascertaining that ehe had do
objection to makirg her own go writ and
waa willing to t?in.r the grocery bill to
uit a bookkeeper aalary.
Jtut in ipite i.f all the dullneiM with which
he waa surrounded, and the fact that he
toiled all day and walked home through
filthy etreeta to a third flat and a plain
wife. Hud could nut come down to the ac
tual it tea, Or, to put it more fairly, he re-
fuM-d to notice the un interesting actual!
tie and confined hiinaelf to the enjoyment
of auch thing in life aa auiud him. Aa,
for eiample, the cart.
Hud kepi booka for a River street im
porting houe, and it was Kit privilege to
handle invoices of tea from China and col
fee and apices from Java and M;tm!a'ay,
it wan, without doubt, the purent uuugiiia
Hon, but it tw-eiiied to Hud that the very
invoices of thece thing had an aromatic
scent it bout them, and it waa his chief in
dulgence to leave his work a minute be
fore tiie noon hour and go to the shipping
room, where the curious caaee of redolent
wares were opened
At firt when he tried to tell hie wife,
she laugued. Hut she loved Hudpoor
Hud who had never had anything that he
wanted and when she looked in his
dreamy. 01 like eyes, she made up her
mind to try to understand what he i
talking about. Very plain women are
sometimes untelfish like that.
It was she who bought him an old ropy
of the astonishing tinvels of Marco Polo,
and she (rot the chronicles of Sir John
Maundcvillc out of the public liluary and
read aloud to Hud rvemngii. She yot me
joss nticks, too, and burned ti.em in a tiny
jade bowl. And after that both of the
Henchea got in the way of buying oriental
trinket a and Mrs. l-each htTtred the
grectiifth plaited etiaw wrapping that
came about the tea boxes, and made a
dado ol them around her dining room,
neatly prmeling the tvltnle. After t at tb
pungent perfume of the dried tea leaves
were forever in that room, and made it
peculiar. Moreover, she struck a Uny grng
when meals were reedy, and the gong had
a I. Hunting oriental sound.
So into toe lives of Hudson Irvinuton
Heat h and his plain little wife began to
come the color ol the mysterious east,
ami they dreamed of Far Cathay and
talked nrniut "the I nil," and were absurdly
hat'kneyed-thoutrh they didn t know it
and they envied the people who could
cross the western leas, and sad into the
toy country of .Jatmn, or Me the vast,
thronging rivers of China, and hear the
tinkling of the temple bells.
"I uftcd to think it waa very silly to talk
aljout the incarnation of the soul," Mrs.
Iteecli said to Htidvnn, "but now feel
quite sure that I used to walk through a
barar and talk with ivory-faced old men
in turbans, and that I umm! to buy curious,
delightful things. It cannot be that all
I know about marketing is going down on
CI rk street to the butcher's. I hate the
butcher's, anyway. Why can't we eat rice
and sugared rherriee and beautiful deli
cate things like that"
Hud managed to get some delicious rel
ishes such aa Christians encounter when
they go to 1 loin bay, and he and Mr. Ilea eh
iicd them with scrupulous frugality. On
Christmas he made her a present of eu
gnred cherries and ginger and small, pre
cious packages of tea.
They knew but few persons on this
teeming globe and wrote to fewur still,
though they were people who would dear
ly have loved an interesting correspond
ence, and chief of all their epistolatory de
lighta was the letter that rame now and
then from Hong Kong from a correspondent
of the Kiver street house. Hud, to tell
the truth, had rather thrunt his personal
ity upon this man, and by careful coaxing,
the b usin chb eorreapondence had grown
Into a friendly interchange of personal let
ters. "It seems curious to me at tunes," said
Hud one day, rubbing the bald spot on hie
head, "that in all my life 1 am never to
get a smell of the bexar tbe garlic and
the incense and the perfumes ami the dirt!
How miMTnbly dull our streets are, Mary!
What would you think if you saw people
in white linen and red and blue and yellow
and gold and fawn colors? Mary, how
would you like a Cashmere shawl' Or a
camel hair robe)! Kli?" Then they both
laughed like children who have a secret
and Mtry, getting up, lit one of the little
joss sin ks in the jade bowl.
It was only lait winter that the Reaches
began to got tired of visions. Perhaps they
real if ed that youth was really gone. Any
way they knew beyond all peradventure
that they were poor; that work was con
stant and poorly remunerated, and that for

in that neighborhood of "lint" buildings.
looking out on end hits wire clothes lines
and hre escapes. They grew depressed.
They were almost ill lift tured with each

redolent dado.
Put iiifd as the dirty Chicago winter was
settling down upon them in a most dia
heartening way, and the furniture of the
Hat was looking its meanest, and Mary
was most conscious of the out of data
character of her three year-old jackrt. Hud
rame home one mght with a white face.
"Hud,' cried Mary, when she saw him,
you're i,iehargc.l."
"Mary," shouted Hud. throwing his arms
about bcr, "you lie!" and be kissed her
sijuare on the mouth.
It's the Ind!" half sobbed Hud. "1
tell you, M.-iry, it's the Ind that has upset
me! I m to go as agent for our house to
Hong Kong! It has come true."
"Hong Kong isn't the Ind. ' said Mary. al
most crossly. She was surprised that she

After I was graduated, I went to my

When I hsd, in a negative way, finished
the book, my father pulled his chsir toward
mine, ami in s strange, dry voice, saia
'l.n i,i.u mv me a dehnitinn of law."
I pondered long, tried to scratch the defl

I've heard of people making niouey by

I was full of romantic ideas. I knew I

I got a commission as deputy marshal,
and then revealed my scheme to my chief.
lie suu'ied heartily at ti e oeginnirig ot my

convinced him I wss lenoua, he filed
his steel blue eyes on me a few minutes,
screwed the corners of his thin litis, and
then spoke in s dry voice: "I knew you
were s man of sonorinal imagination, but
tliat you were insane, 1 never before sus

along a rocky road that wriggled between
precipitous walls m the mountains of hi
hot county. A little stresin tittered along
the route, and, far above, the pine-harp
sang soft tuuei
All st once my bora reared, bent his
fine neck, spread his ansiriU, and snorted
alarm.
The next second, a sharp report shat
tered the silence. My horse, quivering,
stood in tht center of the roa.t. The next
second, the click of a dry hranoh wat
heard above me. Then a splash among
green leaves. 1 hen, down acroi t epom
mel of my saddle, dropped a hui-e tvild est.
hit bosom ipurting blood. W at did all this
mean: Wnile sitting in 1 e'j. ers wonder

source of this enroid of sweet aour.ds.
Soon came a velve:y swiph iwnoi.g the
paw-paw biuhes st the left of the rosd.
Turning hiy eyes, fearfully but eagerly, I
saw a iaee, flamed by gieen foliip-e. From
the face smiles cd like soul-ennii, and,
at their touch, 1 full my own grew in
itantly bright. Was I dreaming? If so, I
prsveil to awaken never! ltut I wns not
dreaming. Out through the cpeen of
'eaves .ui.ied th form of a yming woman,
clad in blue velvet. She had on her head
a white man's 1st, the left brim pinned to
the wile of the crown, revealing a broad
hstn' of squirming hau above the ear. A
great lot of lasy, yellow curls lulled on her
s.iouljers.
I sst speechless, watching th riot of

it in my heart- in t';e locket of memory.
Directly ale ai!anred wit' in touch of

I took her proffered hand, and as the
current of mrgnrtistn ftaalied slong the
line of my neivaa, I kii.I. not knowing
what else to lay: "I'm certainly thankful
to you for depriving me of this wanton
enemy, but how did you know my nameY'
"tlh, I've known your name for several
years, and became especially familiar with
it of late, since it wss known tiiat yon
wouhl free the hills of the moonshiner
king."
"I premme I'm not far from his haunts!"
I said, feeling s heroie surge in my soul.
"Nut very far. but you can't arrange to
capture him this evening. You will go
home with me. I live only a short distance
from here."
"I thank you for the hoapitabt offer, but
I must tie going on now."
"()hk no; you'll not go on this evening,
sir," she said, tapping her gun, and smil
ing significantly. "I invite vou kiudlv to
go with me, and 1 hope l'U not have to say
you ar.au go, sir.
"You won't have to use that Din to per
suade me." I said, nervously, "ril go."
"Wf course you will."
A short distance ahead, th narrow
thr.wt of the gorge widened into a besuti
ful b.oin of green valley, is the center ol
which a white houie shone in the dwlin
ing sun like a silver rtar.
When we got to the gste s great, broa.l,
tall giant came ambling down the path
towards u. his hands in his pockets, snd
a benevolent smile struggling through his
shaggy Ward.
"Mr. lon," said the girl, gsyly, "let m
introduce you to my fsther, th celeblated
outlsw, lluater Tsggart!"
A few minutes later t was chatting with
Miss flora Tsggart in the parlor, when
she arose, and, going to the lentn-table,
brought a photograph of a l.amUotnc ho
whom I recognised as toe youthful Leon
liilTord.
"I g w it from your Ih ardiiu' house mis

looked as if she was mentally ktMig it.
"I have your phtUmrp :, t.M ," 1 said
"in the lo. V et o! my soul "
