By ALDEN CHAPMAN
The Afton river divided Lyndon exactly
in halves. There was little
choice between the east side and the
west side as to residential qualiflca- j
tlons, although the latter included the
business section of the town.
By a strange coincidence the social
leader in the east town was Mrs. Edward
Browne, and the dominating lady
of the west was Mrs. Edward Brown.
"With the *e,' please remember," the
east side empress of style and fashion
would remark when Introduced for
the first time. "We run back to the
Browne-Burdetts of Gloucestershire, I
believe. There were three baronets in
the family at the time of Charles II."

"Without the *e.' so as to avoid confusion,"
fearlessly remarked the queen
of the west side domain. "We are
of the branch of the parliamentary
Brown family of Wotton, I understand."
So the social leader with the "e" i
and her rival without It assumed great
airs and strove to eclipse each other
in the eyes of their respective adherents.
Exclusiveness became the essence
of the combat between the two
cliques. Thus, Mrs. Browne patronized
the church element and Mrs. Brown
, the business set. It was a continuous
rivalry between the vaunted high aesthetic
attitude of those borrowing a
certain supremacy as to art and literature
and their competitors who
counted bankers and other real men
of wealth and position in their ranks.
Never did the east side, engineered
by Mrs. Browne, announce some high
social function that It was not followed
by one arranged by Mrs. Brown.
New, by another strange coincidence,
Miss Edna Browne had become acquainted
with young Mr. Walton
Brown. The restrictions which shut
them out from meeting socially In any
general way made no difference to
them. They langhed mutually at the
conventional restrictions which. In a
measure, separated them as though
they were feudists and enemies.
A caller upon Mrs. Brown one day
set a ball rolling that was not destined
to relapse into Inertia until it had considerably
depressed the high social
notions of both the Brown and the
Browne element The visitor brought
some news to Mrs. Brown that stirred
her up greatly.
"Confidentially." Imparted this gossip,
"I learn that Mrs. Browne has employed
an expert to trace the genealogical
record of the family."
"Is that true?" at once bridled Mrs.
Brown. "Thank you for the Information;
we shall do the same. I fancy
we are entitled to a crest or a coat of
arms fully as much as the Browne
family."
"Mrs. Browne dilates extravagantly
on a certain Erastus Brown who first
added the 'e' to hi.R name three centuries
ago."
"Bless me!" derided Mrs. Brown,
"our family goes back three centurlea
beyond that." {
So the rival social leader* ccntrlb-:
uted each to the Income of a dismal
looking genealogical student who pro-.
fessed great proficiency in tracing
back family history. Meantime Edna
and Walton lived the life of hopefnl
contentment and love, became engaged,
and all Lyndon wondered if the an- !
tldpated marriage would tnlte the |
rival factions or at lea/1 mitigate
their mckbounjl exclusiveness.
One day Mrs. Browne received dla- j
mal news. The owl-faced antiquarian
she had employed called upon her with

from England and the *e' signifies

And now ensued an influence that

Mils, as the saying goes, and her social
rival to eat homble pie. Neither
made public ner failure to link up with

that the other had learned of the dismal
outcome of the quest after Illustrious
ancestry. Then each hailed
with relief a general town function In
which both were forced to take a part

celebrated. Edna, arrayed In n liberty
