.TRUE FRIENDS.

Mary Ann stood on the back porch
churning. Her dress was neatly,
tucked away from the contact of
splash-ing buttermilk, and her eyes
rested on the blue flecks of sky, show-
ing through the leaves of a Virginia
creeper which covered the lattice; but.

her thoughts were remote enough from ,

flecks of sky, green leaves or splash.
~ ing buttermilk.

Inside the dim sitting room her
mother nodded to the musical rythm
cf the churn, and the buzzing of two
files, high on the window pane. The
needle, stuck half way through the
cross stitches in the heel of Mary
”Ann’s stocking, was held perilously
:close to the gray head bending over
it, and bobbing up again at regular
"intervals. The warm, Janguorous June
day courted sleep, the churn dasher
outside rose and fell monotonously,
and its cadenCe mingled with Mrs.
Smi-tlier’s dreams. _

Presently there came a rap of bony
knuckles at the front door. Mrs.
Smithers’shead gave a final jerk up-
ward and her eyes blinked open. She
rose and hastened to the door, the
stocking still in her hand. _“Oh, is it
you, Liza?” she said. “Come right
in. I was half asleep when you
knocked—these long summer days
make one so drowsy.”

Liza gave 'her skirts a shake.

“It’s awful hard for people to keep
clean in Kansas,” she complained,
“with the wind blowin’ the dust all
over creation." She seated herself
and glanced smilingly about her. “It’s
nice in -here,though,” she added, “and
I’m mighty glad I found you at home,
because I came on special business.”

“I hope you didn't come beggin’ for
the church,” said Mrs. Smithers.
“There ain’t a red cent in the house,
and won’t be until Mary Ann finishes
the churnin’ and sells the butter.”

”That’s her churn-in’ now, ain’t it?"
asked Liza.

“Yes. Why?”

“I’ve got somethin’ to say I don’t
want her to hear, that’s all.” She took
off her mittens and smoothed them
out across her lap.

“Sarah,” she began solemnly, after
an awkward pause, “I’ve always been
a good friend to you, haven’t 1?”

"Boat as good as any friend I‘ve
got.” answered Mrs. Smithers, with a
curious intonation which was lost on
Liza, so intent was she upon the sub-
.ject in hand.

“Well, I’ve come to do you a friend‘s
turn now.” Here she paused again.
and Mrs. Smithers, drawing her nec-
dle through, held it suspended, waiting
to hear. “Some-times,” Liza went on,
“people's own kinfolks is the very last
ones to hear things that’s goin’ on—
talk. I mean~and that ain’t right. If

- there’s talk go-in’ 'on the ones nearest
of kin ought to be the first to hear it.
Leas-tways that’s my opinion. Ain’t
it yours, Sara-h?”

“It depends,” said Sarah dryly.

Liza rolled the mittens neatly to-
gether and turned the hem of one over
both.

“Now, supposin’,” she said, at a
slight loss for words for once, “that I
had a girl like Mary Ann—”

Mrs. Smithers involuntarily started.
For a second she shook as if with a
chill.

“And people was goin’ roun’ talkin’
about her? XVouldn’t it be your duty
to come and tell me?”

Mrs. Smithers did not reply. Her
wrinkled face had turned a polish yel-
low under the tan of the Kansas
winds. The stocking had fallen into
her lap.

“Of course it would,” continued
Liza, “and so I’m goin’ to tell you
this, because I think you ought to
know it.”

She coughed ftwice behind her hand
before she began again.

“As near as I can make out,” she
said, “it was this way: Jake Saun-
ders was comin’ along the road from
Mulvane Saturday night—I think it
was; yes, I’m sure it was Saturday
night—and he saw two young people
driving towards him in a buggy in the
shadow of the trees. It was bright
moonlight, you know, and when they
came out from under the shadow the
young fellow threw his arms around
the girl’s neck and kissed her! Kissed
her right there in the moonlight where
Jake Saunders could see, where any-
body could ’er seen what had a mind
,to look! Why, in the name of common
sense didn’t he kiss her when they
'were 'in the shadow of the trees?
That's what I’d like to know. Sarah,

“that young fellow was Charlie Sulli-
van, and the girl—well, the girl was——
Mary Ann!”

Mrs. Smithers had mechanically
taken up her work and was slowly
running the long needle through the

’ heel of Mary Ann’s stocking. She

. {pressed the threads down with her
thumb nail and snipped 01f a stray end
with her scissors. Her face was emo-
tionless, as if carved in stone, but the
fingers that held the scissors trembled
a very little.

“You know Jake Saunders,” Liza
went on. “He can’t keep nobhin’. That
was Saturday night, and before morn-
!n’ the whole town was alive with it.
Everybody knew it, even the little
children. Such things go like wild-
fire, once they get started, and the
worst of it is they keep addin’ and
addin’. You wouldn’t ’er known ..,the
story by Sunday, they’d put so many
frills and furbelows to it.”

She looked hard at Mrs. Smithers,

‘ searching in her stony features for
.nme slight encouragement to proceed,
but, finding none, she proceeded any-
way.

“Now, seein’ I’m your best friend,

‘ Sarah, I thought it would be a kind-
ness to come and tell you what they
I were sayin’. It seemed sort of pitiful-
like to hear everybody talkin’ about
"_,.-Mary Ann, and you smil-in’ around

unbeknownst—smilim’ maybe at the:

very people what was doin’ the worst
talkin’.” '.

She fidgeted a moment, while the
sound of the churn filled up the si-
lence. '

“As I said to Jane Hawkins,” she
wound up lamely, “it wasn’t right.
If nobody else would come and tell
you, I said, I would.”

Mrs. Smithers cleared her throat.

“I see by the mornin’ paper,” she
said, “that’s wheat’s gone up. That’ll
be a good thing for Kansase—that is,
if the rail-roads don’t charge mor’n it’s
worth to haul it away. This ought
to be a good year for Kansas with
such big wheat Crops and the corn so
fine.” ‘ _ - . .

“Yes; the corn’s fine enough right
now,” retorted Liza, “but there’s no
telling what it’ll be‘ before the sea-
son’s over. Like as not the hot winds
will kill it, or the chinch bugs’ll eat
it all up.”

She flipped a speck of dust from
her sleeve and took up the old sub-
ject where she had left oif. ,

“If I was a lone widder with one
daughter, and people was talkin’
about her, I’d thank somebody to come
and tell me. That's what I would
do.”

“I try not to think of the chinch-
bugs,” said Mrs. Smithers. “If they
come, let ’em come. Any way, half a
crop in Kansas is better than a whole
crop in any other state. That’s what
the matter with Kansas. Her own
people run her down.” ,

Liza suddenly left her chair and
stood erect, her starched skirts rust-
ling with indignation.

“You’re a queer creature, Sarah
Smithers,” she said. “You never were
like other people, and you never will
be, I guess. When a friend comes to
do you a kindness you ain’t got a civil
word in your head for her. This is the
last time I’ll go out of my way to ac-
commodate you—the very last time!"

Mrs. Smithers remained seated.
“You’ll excuse me not goin’ to the
door with you, I hope,” said she, with-
out ofifering any special reason for not
doing so; and her visitor flaunted out
of the house and down the walk alone,
heedlessly brushing against the inof-
fensive rows of phlox and sweet wil-
liams as she went.

When the gate had closed upon her
with a loud click, Mrs. Smithers rais-
ed her head and listened for the sound
of the churn. It had ceased.

“Mary Ann!” she called softly.

“Ma’am,” answered Mary Ann from
the pantry where she stood, moulding
a shining pat of butter.

“Come here a minute.”

Mary Ann printed a clover leaf on
he butter, laid it on a plate, and ap-
peared in the doorway, holding it out
upon the palm of her hand.

“Look at this,” she said,
yellow as gold?”

“Yes,” smile-d her mother, “but put
it down ‘and come here.”

She put the plate on the table and
approached her mother, her face
flushed with the. exercise of her work.
She knelt down by her.

"There’s something I want to tell
you,” she said, clasping the old wo-
man’s waist with her strong young
arms, and throwing back her sunny
head with an estatic gesture, her eyes
aglow.

”W'ait,” said Mrs. Smithers. “Maybe
I can guess what 'it is. Let me see!"
S‘he pondered, her finger on her l-ip.
“Saturday night you and Charley Sul—
livan were out driving along in the
shadow of the trees. You were driv-
ing towards Mulvane, He asked you
to be his wife and you said you would.
W'lmt a naughty girl, to promise with-
out her mother’s consent! Just then
you drove out of fin shadow into the
moonlight, and he threw his arms
around you—mud kissed you!”

The girl smiled and dimpled.

“Why, mother!” she cried. “How did
you know?”

“I’m a mind reader.” Mrs. Smithers
answered; then, seeing the puzzled
look on Mary Ann’s face. she added:
“No, dear, I’m not a mind reader, but
I’ve got so many friends—good, true
friends who come and tell me things
they think I ought to know.”

“I hear one of them coming now,"
said Mary Ann, rising from her knees.
“You go to the door, mother. My
face burns so.”

M‘rs. Smithers put down her work
and went to the door. She. half op-
ened it and looked out.

Entering the gate was a middle-
aged woman of ample proportions. As
she approached the house her wide
skirts filled up the narrow walk,
bending the slender stalks of the flow-
ers to the right and to the left. She
panted as she climbed the steps, a
broad smile further expanding her
face across which the, skin was
stretched, drum like, to its utmost ten-
sion.

“How pretty your flowers always are,
Mrs. Smithers,” she gasped. “How
do you ever get them to grow like that
in Kansas?”

“ain’t it

“I suppose stayin’ at, home and
tendin’ to ’em has somethin’ to do
with it,” answered Mrs. Smtihers

grimly. At the same time she fast-
ened the hook on the inside of the
screen door.

Mrs. Hawkins stood outside, like a
book agent, meekly waiting to be ad-
mitted.

“Ain’t you goin’ to let me in?”
asked.

Mrs. Smithers answered the ques
tion with another.

“Are you one of my friends?”

“Yes-9’

“Have you come to tell me some
thing you think I ought to know?"

“Yes,” answered Jane Hawkins.

“Well, then, I’m not at home,” said
Mrs. Smithers, and she slammed the
door, drew the bolt and went back to
her darningf-Peterson’s Magazine.

l A RAGE FOR VELVET.

 

 

r All Sorts of Costumes Made From 1.. Vol-
utina Also Worn.

(By special arrangement with the FLY. Sun.)

Velvet is tobe much used this win-
ter. The present styles demand the
employment of this rich fabric, and
both plain and fancy velvets are far
finer than ever before and more ar-
tistic in design and coloring.

. For several seasons two-toned or
changeable velvet has been fashion-
able for gowns, but it is no longer
considered good style except in a few
very light shades, such as apricot,
where a blending of two colors is ne-
cessary to get the desired opalescent
effect.

As to color, browns. blues, purples
and greens promise to be the var-19.

 

The always popular greens shade
from emerald to hunter's green, and
from hunter’s to myrtle. Gowns of
plain velvet show trimmings of mag-
nificent passementerie or lace; often-
times, strange to say, coarse cotton
lace embellishes the richest silk vel-
vet.

Not every woman can afford a. gown
of silk velvet or even one of half silk,

are to be made into smart frocks, and
they are of such excellent quality
that only experts can distinguish them
from the real thing if they are well
cut, well made and fitted.
way, this material is known as velu-

 

tina this season and is brought out in
all the new shades.

By far the hand-sonicst of all the
velvet novelties is a material known
as antique or satin soleil degrade.
This comes in nine d'iil'erentshadings.
such as petunia, mordore, sea green.
cornflower or bluet, Capucine, gray
and Russian blue. and the tints in
each piece run from very dark to
light. This fabric is used in millinery
as well as for bodices and trimmings.
and is quite expensive enough not to
become common.

 

Most of the new skirts are being
made so tight in the upper part that

the back in the prevailng mode cer-

obviates any possibility of the open

on the left side has also made its ap-

This Item of Interest from
East Norwalk May Ex
plain Why the Nor-
walk Reader Knows
Considerable and
Does not Ynow
Everything.

What we acquire easily we generally
part, with readily; what costs us physi-
cal or mental effort, as a. rule, we hang
on to tenaciously. No one is better
authority on this question than our
public school teachers. Many a. time
it must have puzzled them what to do
with a great many of their pupils, how
to get knowledge in their heads is
the ditficultly, but once, in, if they ex-
amine the thick skulled receptacles of
their pupils they W111 find solid and
substantial reasons for his estimate of
their merit. Mr. F. S. Lyon, of 22
High street, South Norwalk, an ex-
teacher who was in harness for near-
ly a. quarter of a century in that city
says: .

“A slight uninary trouble accompan-
ied by backache attacked me from the
result of a cold which I caught at an
entertainment some years ago. It hung
on for a few days and I looked around
for some medicinal preparation which
would remove it. After reading quite
a few testimonials about panaceas and
cure alls for the kidneys, I selected
Doan’s Kidney Pills. It did not. re-
quire a box to remove all the difliculty.
I have heard in South Norwalk of over
a score of people who used this remedy
and obtained the same result as I have. ”

them, he should be given a pair of light
dumb-bells and taught how to use
them. He should exercise with them
night and morning, this will expand
the chest and improve the figure. Girls
need constantly watching that they
carry the body straight and the head
erect. A child that is given to iolling
about should be encouraged to lie rath-
er than sit, the former position will do
much to keep the back straight. But
nothing is so good for a. child’s health
and proper development as plenty of
exercise in the open air.

Mule Will Kick. But Never Runs Over.

Touching the protest we occasionally
bear against the dangerous practice of.
driving loose mules through the streets
it may be well to assure the timorous
that there is no possible danger of a
mule running over a child. You may
set a baby in the middle of Marietta
street and drive a thousand mules at
a wild gallop through it and not one
would hurt the baby. It is well
enough to give a mule’s heels 8. wide
berth, but no one ever heard of a
child or man being run over by one.
You could not drive a mule over a
child.—Atlanta Commercial. ‘

 

Everybody Satisfied.

“Dere’s always bound-to he kickers.”
exclaimed Meandering Mike. “Did
you ever know a time when de people
agreed unanimously dat dey had do
right man in de right place?”

“On’y-ouce,” replied Plodding Pete.
,“I was bein’ put into jail .on de occa-
sion.” . ..
