I have faithfully kept my promise I never to divulge to my sister Louise the adventure that befell me at our first memorable dinner at Lily Carter's, nor the identity of the prim waitress who served us on that occa Eton. And no one but Mrs. Carter and the person directly involved ever knew of the loss and subsequent history of my pearl scarfpin. Brief mention must be made of my eldest sister's inordinate and sinful regard for the details of household management, for thereby hangs this tale. Her own home is perfectly ordered, and thus intreiched, outside the application of the adage concerning dwellers in glass houses, she justifies herself in cavilling at the domestic peccadilloes of her friends. Not one that is not afraid to entertain Louise. I knew that Mrs. Carter was quaking over the prospect of our dining at her house. She was a boarding-school friend of Louise's and had married a poor bank clerk, and this was Liuse'3 first visit East since Lily had set up house-keeping. We were to go out early in order to be driven about the suburbs before dark. My sister had preceded me, and as I was on my way i'rom the aIama T sJ o ohnrt r?nt blclliuu, aiuuv, x u, ?^? to the house by way of some vacant Hots. Grip in hand, I sprang up the banking which sloped abruptly from the sidewalk, and upon reaching the; top noticed a girl, hesitating 011 the brink, as if dubious about trusting herself upon the slippery surface; for it was the winter season. After passing her, I paused, witti an instinctive desire to be of assistance. She was the prettiest creature I ever saw. Her blond hair fluffed out from beneath a boyish seal cap which matched her rich coat. Upon the soft curvo of one cheek, where the coquettes of old used to wear their patches, a small brown mole enhanced the fairness of her skin. She threw me a conflding look from her gray eyes which were shaded by wonderful black lashes, and tentatively stepped upon the Icy slope. Then her feet began to slide. "Quick!" she cried, and extended one hand in my direction. With more zeal than caution I was at her side, the impetus of my leap precipitating us at a break-neck pace down the bank, across the slippery sidewalk * - * - - -A 1 nruv M V. &DQ 1D.IO lUC Street. w ku a uutucu, "Thank you so much," in a sweet voice, she disengaged herself from my support and was gone. I adjusted my hat and coat collar with a pleased though regretful smile, and, with a habit I have, felt for the pin in my scarf. It was gone! And then I remembered with vivid distinctness the violent pressure of two small hands against my chest as we made our mad descent. It was a valuable pin, and I was sorry to lose it. But my deepest regret was on another account. * ? * o "What a charming maid;" this in a stage whisper by Louise to Mrs. Carter. "Has she been with you I long?" "Not long," Mrs. Carter had time to respond before the girl re-entered the dining-room. I glanced up with out interest. Her hair was blond, parted primly in the middle and drawn smoothly away from her forehead. Upon the curve of one very pink cheek, where our colonial belles were wont to wear their beauty patches, was a small, brown mole. So my lady was a professional thief gaining entrance to this house disguised as a servant! The dinner was a success and the servant perfect. Louise beamed approval and Mrs. Carter basked therein. After coffee in the library, I found some pretext for leaving the room. Listening stealthily at the pantry door, and hearing the faint clink of china, I entered. She was seated independently on the top of a pair of portable steps, finishing an ! ice. Her face blanched when she met j my condemning gaze, and she sprang I to the floor. Her beauty smote me to the heart. | "I know everything," I declared in I a dramatic whisyer. "If you will leave at once I will not expose youi position!" "How did you know?" she breathed, wide-eyed. "It is quite apparent," said I, dryly, "especially after the theft of mi pin." "Oh!" she gasped. "It's you, is it!" "Yes, it is I," grimly. "However it is upon my friend's account that 1 come to you, not my own." "Why don't you tell your friends?' ! shp ripfiorl I felt myself growing red. It is a man's pride to have a reasoi for his acts. I llieu realized that hei beauty's appeal to my sympathy was my reason now. "You are young," I replied, se verely. ' I trust this is your first of fense and that you will reform." She covered hor face v/ith her lit tie hands and for a moment he: shoulders shook gently. But the eye that she raised to mine were tearless "Since you ar-> so kind I will tel you tbe truth. I uld not steal you pin. It caught?it. caught in m; pompadour! You will fiao it adver tited in the nvociaff paver." Was this clever nise te> throw m< off? I looked at her keenly. * "Yon don't believe me!" The gray eyes flashed.' '"I do believe you, and 1 ask your pardon. But?I can't understand your position here?as a servant?" "Is it necessary that you should, Mr. Barrows?" It was the icy voice of my hostess. Being now without defence I looked the picture of guilt. "When I need any detective work, Mr. Barrows. I will call upon you:? perhaps. Until then, kindly refrain from annoying my servants!" It was evident she thought me j smitten by the charms of her table girl. So I was?yet?was a wellmeaning young man ever in a more awkward position? "Nonsense, Lily! Mr. Barrows does not deserve such abominable treatment! And I'm not your servant!" "Oh, Daphne, think what you are saying!" implored Mrs. Carter of her mutinous maid. "I don't care. You'll have to tell him, Lily. I'm sure he can be trusted with our secret." How blessed for that! TVi?n Hiou tniH mo hnw Mrs. Car ter's lack of a waitress had been supplied by lier cousin Daphne. Knowing Louise as I did. I could appreciate the situation, and after mutual assurances of forgiveness and confidence our strange session in the pantry broke up. When my sister returned to Chicago a few days later, I did not accompany her, and in due season the pearl scarf pin was fashioned into an engagement ring for the -loveliest girl in the world.?Boston Post. i The Tight Little S * Isle. 2 eitiotieietiMoaiaiiiiMt An Englishman's pride in his own country is both admirable and humorous at times.

Ey JAMES W. WORKS.

It chanced to be Sunday morning, and also he had , casually passed near one of his traps. In the jaws of the steel trap he discovered a live mink. As the poor creature was badly mangled and suffering, he, out of humanity, took the animal out and knocked it in the i head. This seemed to be satisfactory and the charge was about to be dismissed when Deacon Cobb sprang his , trap: "Parson, did you set the trap agin?" With a deprecatory wave of ; the hand easy to imagine but diffi; cult to describe, the parson replied: , "Deacon, I just barely set it.-' Confessed Too Much.
