Hurray. a red woman, appeared be-
fore the at y clerk and desired to be
”watered ‘ .
“Whittle your age. Auntie?’ asked
the head of the registration depart-
ment.
“Law me, Cap‘ni Ax me sump'tn

and viewed the old lady sceptically.

tinued Aunt Harriet, "for be dun glb

The mathematicians and the historians
of the Registration Bureau piled the old
lady with questions and finally gathered
enough data to put her down at 115
years of age.
“I ’spec' I be that ole, anyway." said
Aunt Harriet. “and maybe mo'."
Ten days afterward “Auntie Harriet"
rode down to the polls. in Alderman
Mollinger’s carriage. bearing herself as
prondlyasu peacock. And she voted.
She was arrayed in the fashionable bric-
a—brac of a century. She wore a shawl
that her old “tnissns” gave. lu-r in Ten-
nessee three-quarters of a century ago;
a quaint looking white (.xnp. resplendent
in a wealth of ruffles, which her young
missus had given her as a wedding was
ent, and an antique cloth cape. brilliant
in glass bonds, which had fallen into her
hands at the death of an old maid sister
of her last master. about twenty years,
she thinks. before tho era of freedom.
Aunt Harriet is u very sensible old
woman, but she. has one dominating
weakness. and that is to be. in touch "wif
do quality." In her estimation she
reached the apex of honor when she rode
in the carriage of an aldennan to the
polls and had Mayor Cox. who was run-
ning for re-eloction. tip his hat to her.
But that ridc——that triumphant rido~
may cost her her life. for through vanity
she discarded her \voolons to wear the
ancient littory of bygom- days and caught
a bad cold. which has developed into the
grip.
"No. H'tll." she said in reply to n ques-
tion. "1 konn‘t jus' toll how olo I am,
‘but «lat town clerk dour figured me out
at 11?». He told mo 1 was ole enough to

at her own wit.
