So, when liridget's first day out arrlvi'd. she and Hurry both looked for ward to it us u sort of lurk. Ax they were < I r 1 1 1 U 1 1 1 k their eoftee that morn ing, 1 1 m ? following conversation took place : "Now don't go and try t * ? get up a regular dinner tonight, honey. I'm eut Intt too much, uii.swiiy. And I won't have *\ nil gelling nil hok and tired w orkiug cr stove !" "That's very swvel of you. Hurry, lull don't imagine that we can't huVO dinner Jiisj bemuse Bridget is out. I shall enjoy getting It. And 1 don't think much of wives who set out cold bites because they're lazy. You'll see!" "All rigid, pel, suit yourself, but bo ready on time, and if the dinner Is very good, I might have something In my pocket. If might bo tickets for the Hippodrome !" "Oh. how lovely! Of course I'll be on time. Don't miss the early train!" In the middle of the rfterhoon, Mol ly descended to the kitchen, clad In a neat blue linen dress, and tackh?d the dinner. About half-past five, Mrs. Wchster, a near neighbor, who had made friends at once with Molly, rang the bell of the ('a its' house. Molly answered, sat down with her culler, and upijlogl&ed for her dress. Hut she was s??"iivident ly nervous and left the 'oom so many times on one excuse or another that her experienced friend t>egan to realize that something must be wrong with the kitchen arrangements. At last the truth came out and Mol ly explained her predicament, between tears and laughter. "Why, Mrs. WcbSter," she cried, "It novi'r oceutred (o m?* I ??? r??l? I n't get a whole dinner nlinic! I've done lots of cooking !" "Come 011 out ami let's see now hud it is." suggested Mrs. Webster. It dill seem miller hopeless. tin the tables hiy a fierce looking collection ? ? f vooking utensils and dishes, all soiled. Mrs, Webster peered into everything, while Molly explained. Mock bisque soup being Harry's favorite, she had decided upon that, and had made it early to have it out of the way. There It stood on the hack of the stove, .a line curdled mess, "keeping hot." The ro:i-i beef v)n> had put on j: >? >d , and early in the new double roar er, laboring under the delusion that the' invention nl>so|\ed one from giving any ' further at tent ion to the meat, A glance ui it. before her neighbor's arriv- i al. had re\ealed a liille. drieibup. hard ! I'iece of beef, utterly uritit to serve. | Molly ami Mrs. Webster looked at! each other a moment and then cleared I the at niosphere bv laughing imniod- 1 erately. When Molly could get her , brea ( h. she said : "What shall I do? of course, my pride is hurt, and I hate t<> tell llarry, bill I suppose 1 must." "Why tell him that you tried to get a dinner at nil? lie has suggested the theater, you suj\ It would be most natural for you to have a light supper to save trouble, as you may be going out." "Hut I told him this morning I didn't mind the trouble, nml lhal_I was going to get dinner." "Never mind. People sometimes 1 change their minds. I don't want to corrupt your morals, but 1 advise you to do as 1 say. If you will, I can help you out." Molly nodded assent. "Hood : Now, what salad have you got?" "Lettuce and tomato." "Couldn't be better. Any canned i soup in t he house?" "Only ready-made tomato." "The very thing! Haven't you learned the secret of putting hot milk and a bit ?>f butter to that just before serving? Very likely It will be mis taken for your own brand of bisque." "CIreat ! You're a wonder, Mrs. Web ster." "No. just an old housekeeper. Now, I've got cohl ham and 11 cream cheese I can spare, and I'm going to send them over. If by nny chance you have your dessert, don't you see thut with a i>ot of coffee you'll have a delicious and hearty supper, after all?" At 6:80 Harry was met at the door by a smiling bride. He held up an en velope, teaslnglv, high above her head. "Do I get some food, or do we stay at home tonight? No nice dinner, 110 Hippodrome, you know." "I guess I can get dressed in time," said Molly demurely, and, hand In hand, like two children, they went into the dining room. As Harry took the last swallow of the deiuiou*. piping-hot coffee, he re marked ; "Bully supper, Molly. Took my ad vice, after all. didn't you? I'm glad you didn't suend the afternoon fussing over a hot <i7nrW." Molly smiled at hlni across the table. (Copyright, t.v the McClure Netvspa 1 1 r Si adU'Ate ) ONE WAY OUT By ELSIE SEE.

At the etid of a month, how I'ver, Jerri's curiosity and his vanity were gratified hy nil Invitation (o Dick's apartment to he the audience ?>f one to hear the tlrst reading of Dick's play entitled, "Out at the Tun s' "Hully for you, old boy !" and "Kleh II I'd, you'll hack the dramatized best Hellers off the boards," were coinnieuls that came from the delighted Jerry during the first ^part of tln^ muling, but later lie protested: "Oh, come now, Dick, whoever heard of a rich uncle from Alaska turning up to back ail im pecunious nephew in a. scheme to Urlv,e his prospective father-in-law to the wall as a means of making hiui suc cumb gracefully to the relationship?" "And whoever heard of people going to the theater to see something they've heard all about every day of their lives'/" retorted Dick. "I throw up my hands!" Bald Jerry, making un exaggerated demonstration of his acceptance of defeat. "On with the play !" Dick did go on with the play, und the play went on the boards almost Im mediately, bringing so much money 1 ti f ? ? the box ofliee and such Mattering offers to lis author that he was soon In sight of atlluence. Dick began to hope that he dared approach Anne Morri son's hopelessly rj.rh father as a pros pective soii-iieflTw, but it was Jerry's unhappy lot to knock those hopes Hy ing. "Old man, I've got some rotten news for you." said Jerry, us he rounded a corner of a shady country bine, wlilther he bar! taken Dirk for u Spin in a re markably new yellow car. "Our com pany is closing a ileal with lCllhu Mon tague for that big lot adjoining the Morrison home in Huntley place, which seems like a continual ion of all those reports that Aune and old Monragtie : re engaged." "You're a regular storehouse for comforting I hoiiL'li: s. Jerry." "Tie ..t!i r elje- k. please," said Jerry, v.. mo. k humility, but smiling so benignly that Dick laughed in spite of bis dejection. "I'm making myself t he bearer <>f unpleasant tidings to give \ nu a last chance to go in and w in." "A great ehnuce I've cot to go iu title] \\ i r i now," unit tered Dick. "The smaller your chances the big <> ger your \ictory ? if you win. Chirp up. old num. Don't you know tlmt while there's life there's hope? If you net. like a dead one, of course there's no hope for you. I might add, inci dentally, that tills deal will keep Mon taguo here until next week, and if you're the poor hut deserving lover I take you to he, you'll cut in ahead of him by spending this very week end up where the Morrisons are summering and where Montague has" been hanging out a goodly number of week-ends." "I'll let you and Anne. too. know that I'm nom dead one. Will you" get mo back to town right away. Jerry?" With Jerry's aid Dick managed to get the train, and the next morning, on the hotel piazza in an Adirondack resort, as Anne appeared, all in soft white corduroy, he had the joy of see ing pleased surprise In her eyes as she hiushingly met his own -rapturous gaze. She consented to show him the won ders of the place, their Ilrst objective point being a high point overlooking a wonderful panorama of sturdy little mountains. "Don't you love it?" exclaimed Anne blissfully. "Love it? No ? I love \ou." said1 Djek in headlong recklessness. ' Anne, Is there any hope for me? Once I did hope a little, Anne, but I had nothing then but a wealth of love to offer you. I haven't great material wealth to offer you now, but enough to begin on and promising prospects. People are say ing that you nro engaged to Ellhu Montague, but t can't give von up without telling you that neither lie nor any other man could love you more than I do." "Why, Dick, Mr. Montague is going to marry my mother's sister out in Denver." said Anne in surprise. Then she added, with a pretty little puut; "If you hadn't been so busy becoming j a famous playwright, you would have | found out long ago that lurkim; in the: wings and leaving the staire !?> other! men Is no way to get n hcroit.e nut of a tangle." * "Do you mean thnt I may i my own method of getting you < at ,,( rhls tangle?"
