the hotel parlor had Mated Itself to
death apparently, for It had emitted
one last agonizing screech, and refused
to go on that very morning Mr
Stokes, attired in spotless Manuels, and
looking like a crimson peony, made a
canvass of his scattered guests, plead
Ing that someone with musical altliity
(would play for the Saturday night
dancers
"What Is a dance without music?" he
had plaintively imjuiied for (tie twen
ty fourth time when lie reached Judge
Itandall'* cottage at the edge of tire
lake "Miss Betty, of course I know I
would be court marlialed If the young
stern knew that i bad persuaded you
to leave the floor for the orchestra—”
tie paused with a pleading look In tils
hovin* eye*
Betty ttandall looked thoughtful.
She did love to dance!
"Isn’t there anyone at all?" ahe
asked, Increduioualy, at last. “What
has become of old Nat, the black fid
dler who played for us last year?”
"Died last winter, Miss Hetty. You
see. If Blue laike wasn't so far off the
beaten trsck It wnuld he easier to find
some one—to get a musician to a hur
ry—bnt tucked away off in the hills—"
"Very well, Mr. Xlokee, there Is no
use in my spoiling everyone's pleas
ure—you can count on me to play the
piano. I wish It was In tune," she
said, with a whimsical little smile
curving her charming mouth. "And
ri'W, let me bring you some of our
good lemonade, you look so warm.”
When Mr. Stokes had departed,

"Why, It's a I rump warning him

What a wild wait/, melody that was!
Betty’s trained lingers kept perfect
time, but through it all whs the tremo

the mellowed wood of the instrument
fiud mingled with the rhythm of the
waltz on tip* floor helovv was the 1

hoards, laughter and sometimes a hum ,
lu-lug mpaniment as the dafTcers ‘
went on and >n The slim brown bands
left the violin .for 'a moment, a no 1 in ■ r
page was tinned on the piano rack,
and then the stringed voice called
Betty into the past, where she and

Her eyes were heavy with - unshed

throat, followed the satiny wood of the
violin to the curve of lean law and the
strong chin Then, compelling brown
eyes drew her look to their own.
It was Boh! Bob, the beloved tiddler
—the unknown tramp! W
Betty did what any other heart sick
woman would have done under the
name circumstances. She fainted
quiet ly away, looking like a fallen pink
rose.
The strong arms of the fiddler car- I
rled her down the winding stair to her
fathers arms, and they supported Mrs. j
Handall across the sands to the cot- I

veranda, fear In his eyes, until Betty
came shyly down
“l am no longer poor, Betty." "he
told her at lust, after a Tong tale of a

"It doesn’t matter when I saw your

Perfumed Op : c!e Used

of the revival services at Mt. Calvary
Church Saturday night was marked
by a visit from Knights of the Ku
Klux Klan in full regalia. The Rev.
H. P. Bennett, pastor of the church,
who conducted the meeting, had
just finished his sCrmdn. The organ

Soldiers,” when seven Klansmen, in
full regalia,-entered the building in
single file. They marched up to, the
pulpit and one of the hooded visitors
presented Mr. Bennett with a nurse,
which was found to contain $40, the
gift, it is said, of the Blackville Klan.

and called on the donor to offer pray
