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.

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.'"
