"You are not going out in all this
rain, are you, Betty':"
*Why not?" Betty turned around
slowly and looked at her mothe:.
"Why not? Why, because it is pour
Ing-simply pouring:"
"Well, what of it? I'm not afraid of
rain." And the young lady clasped her
gloves with a snap, unfastened her umi
brella and tripped out beneath the drip
ping skies.
Hardly two squares had been covered
when Betty saw a young ia coning
toward her. Jack Winslow bowed,
smiled and stopped. Betty blushed.
"Why, really, Jack, what tempted you
out to wade?"
"What tempted Miss Betty away from
her chocolates and novels?"
"Mr. Elfland's new picture."
"Jove, that's just my excuse: Say we
go together." Jack looked anxiously,
wistfully, at his companion. Miss Bet
ty blushed more deeply.
"Come along," said she. And togeth
.er they walked down the street. Ar
riving at the art gallery, they hunted
out the much talked of picture.
Several people were standing before
it In silent admiration. The painting
represented a room, seated in the fore
ground of which was the figure of a
girl In a 'white gown. Her. blaok hair
was parted and arranged ia soft,, thaio
rolls on both sides o'f her- fair, pale
face. In her hand she held two roses,
a red rose and a pink one. The trou
bled' expression of her face told of per
-:plexity. A question was to be solved,
but the answer could not be found.
Betty clasped her hands with delight.
"Oh," she cried, "how perfectly beau
tiful It is: Oh, Jack, Isn't she-isn't
she just perfect?"
The young man smiled down upon
the enthusiastic girl at his side.
"She is beautiful, but not perfect.''
"Why not?"
Betty opened her eyes wide with
amazement.
'Because," continued the young man,
"she ought not to have any trouble in
knowing whom she wants for her hus
band."
"Why not? One man might be rich
and the other man poor. Donj't you
'see the pink rose is small and pale,
while the other rose ,is a full blown
beauty of a rich velvety red.
Jack shook his head.
"Anyhow she should not hesitate for
a moment. She should take the man
she loves."
"And be poor and miserable all her
ifre?" inquired Betty mischievously.
"Not miserable, but poor and happy,
perfectly happy."
Jack Winslow was watching his com
panion's face. Betty laughed.
"Well," replied she, "perhaps you are
right after all. Here comes Frank
Carlyle."
A tall, slender young man walked
.leisurely up to Miss Betty's side, and,
bowing slightly to Jack, he turned to
ward the picture.
"Well," remarked he after a mo
ment's silence, "she is in a fix, isn't
she? Pink or red; it's down to a
choice of a favorite color', it seems to
me."
"Not at all," replied Jack testily.
"Which does she ldv-e best?"
"Well"-Frank elevated his brows
as though' surprised--isn't that about
what I said? She has a chance to s'o
lect her favorite now, and why doesni't
she do it without so much trouble?"
Betty, who had been silently admnir
lng the picture during the conversa
tion' now turned again towar1 her com
panions.
"She is a girl you know ?"
"Yes," replied both of the young men
at the same time.
"A girl," continued Betty. "has to
wonder sometimes whether she knows
her own mind or not. Here are two
men. Both are kind and attentive to
the girl. Both offer her the lest that
he has to give. Both pay her the high
est compliment that a man can pay to
a woman, for each one in turn asks
her to be his wife. Here, on the one
hand, are riches, a life with every wish
granted, a mother and 'father miade
comfortable, and a husband who loves
you. If she does not love him, she
respects and admires him. On the
other hand are a life of everlasting
economy, a home where there my al
ways be the necessities of life, but
'very few of the luxuries; a father and
mother who must continue in their
same circumstances, a little trip now
.and then when there chances to be an
excursion, and a husband who loves
you, who denies himself for you :and
whom you in your turn love. Which
shall it be?"
Without a moment's hesitation both
of the young men answered. "The man
you love."
Betty was twisting the chain of her
satchel around her tiuger. She laugh
ed and shook her head when she heard
the answer.
"Well, I see that you are both as
yet at the romantic age."
"Are you?"
Frank Carlyle looked down into the
fair. sweet face close beside him. Bet.

THE DINNER TABLE.
ome Hints on How to Behave When
Aceidents Happen.
Accidents will happen. If one hap
pens to spill something he is unfortu
nate, but a ready, earnest apology to
the hostess is all that he can do to rem
edy the difficulty. A careful hostess
will acknowledge the apology and im
mediately change the subject.
This story Is told of a hostess at
whose table a beautIful china cup was
broken. ''Never mind," she said pleas
antly. "They break so easily. See"
And she crushed one In her hand.
Her met-hod was rather too elabo
rate. It would have been quite as sat
isfactory to the offender and far more
genteel had she said: "I hope you have
received no Injury. The cup doesn't
matter In the least."
If a morsel of food drops from the
fork to the tablecloth do not attempt
to remove It. If a guest drops a fork
or a spoon he should let it lie. The
hostess will provide another.
If anything distasteful be taken into
the mouth It may be removed on the
corner of the napkin, when it can be
folded away or placed quietly on the
plate.
If a bit of food falls on the waistcoat
of a guest he should remove as much
of it as he can quietly with the corner
of his napkin.
Damuseus Swords.
To the lovers of strange goods the
bazaars of Damascus are far more
alluring than those of Cairo or of Con
stantinople. -The capacious chests of
the merchants contain mn'uch that we
would buy were our purses longer. Old
emroderies of wonderful colors, deli
cate china, silks of many hues, swords
of cunning workmanship, all these lie
piled beside us on the floor. It is but
seldom that a really good specimen of
the Damascus sword can be obtained,
for the art of working and engraving
steel is dead.
These -.words were made of alter
nate layers of iron and steel, so finely
tempered that the blade would bend
to the hilt without breaking. with an
edge so keen that no coat of mail could
resist It, and a surface so highly pol
Ished that when a Mo0slem wished to
rearrange his turban he used his sword
for a looking glass.
In the Great Western Wheat Belt.
One square mile of wvheat. Ever see
it? Transconrinental trains used to
stop in the Smoky Ihill valley of Kan
sas to allow passenger-s a view of such
a wonder. It realized all the travel
ers' dreams of agricultural splendor.
Hundreds such visions now mark the
great grain area of the plains, but their
beauty Is none the less. Six hundred
and forty acres of wvealth! It shim
mered beneath the perfect opalescent
blue of the sky, the tall straws bending
with their weight of graIn. Standing
on the seat of'the reaper one mightse
inthe distance a glimmer of green pas
tures and catch glimpses of rustling
ields of corn, but here was the he-art
of summer.-C. M. Harger in Scrib
