She's as quick and handy as she can be, and my wife thinks a heap o' Her. Took to her from the first when the girl come from over by Coopersville wdy lookin' for work. She's so slim and slight you wouldnt think she could do much. But, land, she's a hustler!" Indeed, so absorbed was Mary In her work that Waln- wright only saw her at mealtimes. Even then she merely stopped for a pleasant word or nod. But one Sunday night when Waln- wright sat alone on the back porch strumming at a guitar a white dress glimmered in the doorway, and pres- ently Mary came out and sat down. "Please don't stop!" she cried as Wainwright smothered the last chord of a college gles. "I'm very fond of music!" "What else are you fond of, I won- der?' thought Wainwright, and he deftly led her on to speak of herself. She was fond of reading, she coufess- ed, and knew many of the roets by heart. Her taste In literature was as simple as it was fine, and the more she spoke the more Wainwright wondered, for she seemed utterly content with her present occupation. "Any work that Is done well is beau- and, though her allusions to herself were Wainwright found it easy to picture her primitive life, primitive and yet not humdrum. Her love of nature and beauty forbade that. "What a wonderful country it is," mused Wainwright, "where even the rustics have ideas of their own and a vivid way of expressing them." Mary's personality was the most challenging and illuminating one that he had dis- covered so far, and descriptions of her covered several pages of his notebook. In the days that followed he found that if he helped Mary with the sup- per dishes the longer they would have to sit on the porch in the cool of the evening. So while she gplashed the . suds he polished plates and cups and ' quo his_ favorite authors. Affer _ stars and listening to the eerie notes of the whippoorwill, a pleasant state of affairs destined to end abruptly, for Walnwright returned from the fields one evening to find Mrs. Rolfe alone in the kitchen. Mary was gone. "I{ad a letter from one of her folks," said the farmer, "and she went right off. Wouldn't take a cent of her pay 'cause she left so sudden." Wainwright looked blank, "Didn't she leave any address?" he queried. "Said she'd write," answered Rolfe laconically | "But wasn't there any message?" persisted Wainwright. "Not a word," said Farmer Rolfe cheerfully. Mrs. Rolfe had some of her famous | biscuits for supper, but Wainwright had lost his appetite. He stood on the back porch in the afterglow, and ev erything seemed strangely deserted. | Mary had gone, and something of the | joy of living had gome with her. Ex- | istence seemed suddenly very tame and dull to the young professor. He | was conscious of emotions not classi | fled in his notebook. "I must have overworked," he said listlessly to himself as he sat on the | Leffingwells' veranda a week later. It | was sundown. A breeze swept up from the Hudson, and a tall glass of lemonade tinkled pleasantly in Waln- wright's hand. Mrs. Leflingwell, of whose house party he was a guest, sat near him in a wicker chair and chatted irrepressi- bly. "We've had an inkling of your ex- ploits," she said, "and will expect a full account of them. Tonight there's a girl coming to dine who's awfully fond of that sort of thing. S8he spent the summer working on a farm where she met the most extraordinary young harvester that-- There she is now!" , Mary, in a white lace dress, was coming slowly across the lawn, "You didn't leave me any message," said Wainwright reproachfully the mo- ment after thelr hostess had left them | alone together, "but I have ome for 'you. 1 wonder If you will care to hear #®?" "You might try and see," suggested Mary demurely, 'When dinner was at its gayest, Mrs. Leflingwell turned to Wainwright. "Do you think," she said, "that your exper' ment was a success?' Wawmwright"s eyes met Mary's in a comprehending flash. "The greatest I've ever had," he an- swered, smiling. A Curious Bird Mistake.

It's a sight to behold some of the women wrestling with their eourt trains, which require considerable practice to handle gracefully. Talking of trains reminds me that here, teo, things are on the upgrade. Women no longer borrow the well-worn train of their sister, aunt or of a retired duchess or go in for patchwork get- rhe one object at present is to ex- hibit a gown both beautiful and ori- ginal. Lace, tulle, gauze, tisene and other flimy materials are used, and the effect when seen in contrast with the men's brilliant uniforms beats fairyland By the bye, "hock cup" is just now | in great demand at court suppers.

The writ- | ing-room where His Majesty attends to business affairs is fitted up like a city magnate's private office. He has not yet taken to a roll-top desk, but an American letter filing system is | now in constant use. A battery of new | typewriters have been installed in the private secretary's office Business Methods Used. | The King manages his vast cor- respondence on strictly "business" lines.

The personal suites of rooms in Buckingham Palace have just been gorgeously re-decorated. Queen Alex- andra's bedroom is paneled in pale | rose silk, with hangings of white satin. Her bathroom is quite new, an annex being specially built for it. Tt is fitted with a bath of Grecian marble from special quarries Queen's Life In Letters. That important chapter of history covered by "Letters of Queen Victor ia" is at last to become accessible to the public, for three volumes will be issued in the autumn The forecast indicates that the work which is appearing "by authority of His Majesty the King," will be one of exceptional interest. The first vol ume covers the correspondence of the Queen until she was nearly 25 years old. Here she will be seen as a girl princess, then as a young queen under the guidance of a courtly chivalrous premier. Next the reader finds her called upon to select a hus band after her own heart. All through there is held up a mirror of public events as they appeared from the throne The second volume covers a long period, dealing with the repeal of the corn laws and foreign revolutions, of | which the most sensational incident | will perhaps be found in the story of the flight of Louis Philippe to New Haven The correspondence in the third volume bears on the eastern question, the Crimean war, the Indian mutiny the China war, the Franeo-Auvstrian | war, and the struggle for a united | Ttaly. This volume closes with the | prince consort's life, so the whole work [ just covers a quarter of a eentury-- | that is to say, from 1837 to 1561. | Queen Victoria was a woman of strong | individuality and of decided prefer- ence and even prejudices. The obicet throughout the book has been to show the personality of the Queen, her Sethi of ppproseiine and deciding questions, her outlook, her = - thies, her shrewdness, her Rate ance, and her diligence.
