S By BERTHA ROSE. 8 by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) H A II off. 'S far as the car goes!" called the conductor. The pas sengers rose and moved toward the door. A white-haired old gentleman was the first to step off, and he did so with much forethought and precision, for the street was slippery beneath Its slushy covering. After him came a middle -aged lady of firm countenance and rigid bearing, and directly behind her stepped a dainty, dark-haired young Blrl. There was something Irresistible In Barbara Liindgren's eyes. They were large and black, but deep down in their fathomless depths lingered a sug gestion of tire. Barbara, being young and small and graceful, with none of the apprehen sions in her youthful mind, which In variably attach themselves to old age, naturally did not watch her step care fully before stepping 01T the car. She stepped gayly down, all the glowing anticipation of a successful shopping expedition reflected In her eyes, and down she fell, into the half-melted snow and mud. She heard a loud, derisive laugh, and turned In time to catch sight of the now departing owner of that laugh. In her heart she swore vengeance. Her face burning with a fiery red ness and her right leg smarting with pain, she allowed herself to be helped and escorted to n safe section of the sidewalk by a chivalrous young man. "You're not hurt much, 1 hope?" he asked in a rich, masculine voice. She looked up at her benefactor and gathered In a moment that he was tall, kind and handsome. "No," she smiled wanly, "I'm not hurt- much." Then, the smile vanish ing, "Did you hear that that beast laugh when I fell?" "Did I hear him !" he rejoined hearti ly. "Yes, and I wanted to box his vul gar ears for it." "I wish you'd done It !" Her eyes flashed. "But I'll retaliate. He'll learn who laughs best the first or the last." Fingering her muddy wrap, Barbara breathed : "Oh, I'm a fright. How'll I ever get home like this?" "Would a taxi do?" he ventured, be ginning to stand somewhat In awe of those miraculous, onyx-black eyes. When Barbara arrived home she hade Marie, her pretty auburn-haired sister, follow her upstairs and there she broke forth with her story. "I'll teach him better I" she stunned. "How are you planning to get even?" Marie lnipilred, her gentle heart appre hending dreadful consequences. "I'll lind it way!" And no more could .Marie extract from her. The weeks sped by, imd the gentle, forgiving brown eyes watched the llery black "tirs with fear ami wonder. And el nothing happened. In the meantime, Tom Lyons had manifested (ml a little interest In Bar bara which she, in her turn, recipro cated. Marie was not left out, either, for Tom one evening brought to the home of the two girls an attractive looking friend of his who immediately fell desperately In love with that love ly lady whose name was Marie and vice versa. Barbara's chance for revenge came at last, as all things come. It occurred In a pharmacy. Mr. I'helps, the drug gist, with whom Barbara was on inti mate terms, lot reduced her to Lewis I'rewotl, a young friend of his. Many times, in the days that fol lowed, Barbara found occasion In visit the pharmacy. And many times Mr. 1'ivs.olt took her to the theater, to the knowledge of no one but Lewis and herself. One evening, when Marie was out, Barbara asked her new lover Indoors. It was then that he proposed to her. Anil It was there she answered, with an affectation of tremulous love: "Oh, how unexpected tills Is!" lie waited happily, falling to per ceive I lie revengeful llame In her now lowered eyes. "Don't say no," he pleaded. "Willwill you come next Thursday for the answer?" she faltered. "Yes," he promised valiantly, and went. The appointed day saw Mr. Prescott walking buoyantly up V street, the very springtime of youth In his gait. At her door he baited. Something seemed strange. Sweet strains of mu sic Hunted. He experienced a burning sensation. Suddenly the brown door was throw n open. A rlood of beautiful music a picture of pink and white roses and lilies of the valley clinging white crepe showers of millions of small (lakes, blue and pink and white Lewis hreuthed heavily, In 1 moment the two brides Bar bara and Marie were safely deported In a grand limousine, and In another moment 11 lively, full rolce fell upon tint ears of the baffled spectator Bar bara's voice. "He laugh best" the called smil ingly. "Who laughs last." was Tom Lyons' hearty conclusion as. smiling gayly, the happy group drove merrily away. He Had Been Thinking. She But don't you believe that two can live cheaper than one? He Yes; two men can live mncb cU'uoer than ouo woman. New York Life Insurance Co. affords the holder PROTECTION in more ways than one.

NO GREEN PAPER ENVELOPES Ban Placed on Them by Official of the Post Office Department Is to Stand. .American business men frequently nin up agalast some federal regula tion or other which temporarily vexes them because they feel that It is a governmental Infringement upon their ray of doing business, even though the matter Is generally trivial. They do not realize that oftentimes this regu lation Is for their own advantage or In the Interest of human welfare. A good (lustration of this has just been found by the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce and the Post Oflice department, and the explanation has caused the business concerns in terested to agree most heartily that the federal regulation should stand. This Illustration was with regard to the use of green pni-er In "window envelopes," which are now extensively utilized by American business houses. A circular, Issued last January by the office of the third assistant post master general, says that "the station ery used In window envelopes, or at least that portion upon which the ad dress appears, must be white or, If colored, of a very light tint or shade. The use of dark-colored stationery Is not permissible." The rules and regulations division of the Post Office department states that "green Is probably the most diln cult color for the mnll distributors to handle under the trying conditions under which they have to work." HADN'T CAUGHT THE MEANING Headline Writer Might Have Done , Better to Have Glanced Over That Fish Story, Edwin E. Slosson, director of Sci ence service, Washington, tells this story In the Xew York Herald: "Those who read anything more of the newspapers than the large type at the top of the columns will have ob served that copy readers do not always take the trouble to read the articles to which they provide headlines. Just so artists do not rend the stories which they Illustrate and publishers do not read their books before writ ing the blurb for the slip cover. All the headline Inventor seems to care about Is getting rlie proper number of words In the line without regard to what the letters mean. "A few years ago It was discovered that ponds and streams could be kept free from wlgglers by breeding min nows In them, and that this was a good way to prevent the growth of the anopheles mosquitoes which carry the malarial fever microbe. The informa tion was given out to the press by the United States Fish commission In an article headed, 'Fish Prevent Ma laria.' 'But one editor, finding that this wa too short for his line and feel ing the need of adding a practical touch, filled out the head so as to read 'Fish Prevent Malaria: Eat More Fish.' " T. C. Kent, professor of mathe matics at Oregon Agricultural col lege, was a visitor here during the weVk in the interest of that institution. $ By LAURA J. COOK 2 (, 1923, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) (JAM afraid I cannot do much for you, my dear, but perhaps this lit tle story may help you to see your way." The girl perched herself on the porch railing and, with a little sinlle, waited patiently for the old man to col lect his thoughts before beginning his story. "She was very much like you," he begun, his eyes following eagerly the course of a motorcycle speeding along the almost deserted road. "She was not pretty, but always smiling and happy, and perhaps that Is better. You know how 'tis. I think I shall call her Peg, though It was not her name. I met her several times at the theater, but I did not see enough of her to know her well. "Peg and her chum had been pals since they were kids together, but for the sake of some petty argument they bad not spoken for about a month. I learned afterward that Peg had be come aware of the fact that her sweet heart and her chum were seeing too much of each other; so, hoping to keep them apart, she quarreled with her chum. "Peg not only went with 'Buddy,' as she culled him, but when he had been hurt the winter before she went with one of his friends, so Buddy thought she did not care for him. After the quarrel Buddy and Peg's chum saw more and more of each other. Acci dentally? Slay be 'yes,' maybe 'no,' maybe 'neither.' "Anyway, they grew to care for each .Hat an, I ii-liui. It n'DE f,,n lota Pw, I awoke to the realization that she loved i only the one who had called her 'Peg o' My Heart.' She gave up the others' yes, there were several and then sent for me for advice. I never understood why she chose me, because I was of a different nationality, only two or three years older, and we barely knew each other, hut perhaps she did right. You know how It Is." For a moment the old man sat silent ly ruminating, then, at a remark from his listener, he resumed his story. "She was never the same happy-go-lucky girl again. She appeared happy, but at times there were tears In her eyes, and whenever she met Buddy and her chum she turned aside with a sharp intake of breath. "Peg told me all her troubles that night and asked me many things. I told her not to let Buddy see she cared and perhaps It would be all right In the end. Several times Peg sent for me to talk over things, and we were soon intimate friends. I had a motorcycle and together we took many rides, stopping sometimes to argue or to talk over common Interests. "That was one thing about Peg, She could adapt herself to any kind of per son, for she had read a great deal and could argue along many lines; she loved sports, and she knew a little of 'most everything. "Well, I came to love Peg and one day I told her so, and asked her to marry me. I remember how she looked, for she was dressed about as you are now, with her khaki knickers, shirt, soft collar and tie. She seemed love lier than ever to me. "'I love yon, too,' she answered, tears In her eyes, 'hut I can never mar ry you while there is my Buddy to think of, for I still love him.' "I left town next day, and that Is oil, my ehild, because I could never bring myself to return, and I do not know the rest of the story. Perhaps Peg and Buddy were reunited, perhaps not. I do not know." As the old man finished the girl stood up. "Thank you, Vnele Joe; you have helped me, because I shall go tonight with Boh and I shall forget the others. I never cared for them, anyway, but you know how 'tis." "I Gotta Beat It." The librarian in charge of the story hour Is always very careful of her diction, as the telling and retelling and dramatization of these stories afford a splendid opportunity to stimulate the use of good English. The results are often gratifying and often disconcert ing. These children possess an un usually strong sense of the dramatic. The story for the afternoon had been Cinderella, and now one of the six-year-olds was "telling It back" to the "teacher." She started out beautifully, but as she became more and more Interested In her tale, she reverted to her accus tomed speech. Finally, In the third tcene, where Cinderella, while dancing with the prince, suddenly discovers that the clock is striking twelve. Rose, no longer a mere story teller, but Cin derella herself, looked up at the clock, dramatically clapped her hand to her forehead and in a tense, emotional lit tle voice, cried: "My Gawd 1 Lookut the clock. I yotta beat It I" Margaret M. Stokes In Scilbner's. Know Little of Henry Hudson. Charles Barnard, an authority on the subject, says that the time and place of the birth of Henry Hudson appear to be lost. "We only know," he says, "that he had earned, perhaps Hy the time he was forty, sufficient reputa tion as a bold and skillful navigator to be placed In command of the ship Half Moon of Amsterdam. Early In lrtOii he made a contract with a party of Imteh merchants to act as captain of their private exploring expedition, and lu the written agreement between them he was described as 'Henry liud wn, EPilishiiiaa.'"
