stead of attending to his business”
A Hoary-eyed Chinese tattered out
of the back room. took the rod

Charleen her laundry. Back to the
inner room. dlifuslng the faint aro-
ma of the Pop??-
“Quite a good-looking Chinamn.’
suggested Mrs. Charlaon's oom—
panion. ‘

“Well. all Chinks look alike to
me." that lady answered. '

Wan Lung had can. to the town
a year or two before. His father
was a naturalized American—in the
days when this was legal. He had
been born in China. after hisfather's
departure. He can. to America
when he was ten. The father. who
was proud of his son. sent him to
the university. Wan Lung was
twenty-three when he came to the
town.

There was a mission to the Chio
nose. “'an Lung was already a
Christian.
not to be. for the sake of studying
lander pretty Elsie James. who con-
ducted the class. An ' innocent
anough deception. At any rate. no-
body knew he was a universly
graduate, and Wan Lung made
amazing progress in English.

"My star pupil." Elsie James
would say to her friends. "it just
shows “Lat we can do among these
Chinese."

"X‘l’hat you can do. my dear,"aaid
her father, looking at her pretty

(ace.
‘Take care. Elsie. and don't let
im {all in love with you." her

mother warned her.

Elsie laughed. A week or on later
she had him to the house. Wan
Lung created quite a sensation
among the guests, with his good
English and his intelligent ways.

"i declare. 1 think those Chmese
just too cute for words." said
Minnie Hawthorne. Elsie's

‘ all foreigners are."

 

Wan Lung. in short. was voted a
success. and thenceforward he was
a star at church (airs and festivztis.

and a great favorite with lhe ladies.)

Perhaps he pretended1

"But you love no one else?"

"No. Wan," Elsie admitted.

"tony, Wan, it‘s because you're
yellow, of course." ,

“'an was about to have the’room.
but Ellie's mother had suspected
something ard had not been idla.
she pounced upon Wan Lung.

"The ideal" she cried indignanuy.
'It's the most disgraceful thing I
ever heard of. your presuming to
dare to malts such a ragga-flan as
that to my darling daughter.”

“You fill forgive ma. I didn't un-
derstand.” said Wan Dung humbly.

"Didn't understand? You should
have. then! Elsie. darling. it never
pays to have anything to do with
these Orientals They simply can‘t
understand our American wan
They only insult you.”

Then Wan Lung made his little
protest.

"I do not think I insulted Miss
Elsie.“ he said mildly. "I was good
enough to teach. to have to your
houae to tea. and [—1 suppose I had
forgotten that l was yellow." And
he went out. e

But now. if you go to Wan Lung‘s
laundry shop. you will have to wait
qu;te a while before he staggers out
of the little back room with binary
eyes and the faint aroma of the
W‘PPY about him. But Elsie's
mother was correct. Wan Lung is
yellow.

the economy of house fur-

ered the matter carefully you car.

not realize how much more con—
venient a room is in which there
are enough tables than a room in
which there are not enough. Of
course in the living room a big
table about which the whole fam-
ily can gather is mean“ most
nutrients and comfortable. But
_evou so. a couple of small tables
add to the general comfort of the
room. And in some rooms several
small tables and no big ones are
the best arrangement.

This does not mean that you
need wonderful furniture heir-
looms in the war of old mahog-
any tables. nor that you need
much money. There are plenty of
impenflvo modern tables to be
had. .
