do it wont you of course mrs andrews would but what in the world takes you away my dear child she aaked in burpise and marion answered in one word business and set to work to pack ber trunk and in four hours after mr lex- ingtou left by train for armitatfe mrs royal lexington also left by train for the same place for i mean to know for myself just exactly what these business trips are the little lady declared ouly one hotel in arm it age then drive me there she ordered the backmau at the quiet little station only one maam and a firstclass one too several new york ladies and getrtle- meu stoppii there fur august high up plenty o pore air cool nights no mtls- kecters and a lively place for business mrs marion thought as she was driving an the picturesque side of hahidays moun tain but no one not even royal lex ington himself swinging in a hammock on the wide breezy piazza saw the quiet smile on her lips as she passed into the hotel closely veiled in soft gray tissue a slender graceful little figure that every one noticed with admiration sfr lexington included who is shef he asked captain miller the next day who oh the little woman in gray silk mrs kenneth i believe and my wife says the sweetest litttle thing she ever saw for marion had registered as mrs kenneth and had taken the best vacant j room in the house and ordered her meals served in her apartment and ouly joined the other guesta when she was positive the coast was clear the ladies at the hotel all fell in love with her and the rentlemeu became inter ested iu her simply because they never saw her who is that gentleman iu the white flannel euit and broadbrimmed hat mrs kenneth asked one morning as com ing on the piazza she looked at the party of departing horsemen miss delryniple a blackeyed beautiful girl laughed lightly isnt be handsome he is mr lexington who is so very de voted to lija clifford uot the faintest chance for you or i mrs kenneth is ha widower no what makes you think so a bachelor then t of coarse miss delrjtnple laughed oh i mrs kenneth said dryly a bachelor and quite nicelooking too why hes handsome mrs kenneth handsome as an adonis we are all wild about him lila clifford particnlarly and- shell get hira yon see if she dont i be lieve mc is vcrj much interested in you too mrs kenneth miss delryniple went ou gayly it was only this morning he begged me to make an introduction what shall i say to him thanks for your kindness miss del ryniple but i came out for absolute free dom from society hell send you a bouquet though he i tod me he should i and as miss delrymple had said so it transpired thatvery evening a servant brought to mrs- kenneths room an ex quisite bonqaet to which mr royal lex- jagtouv card was attached a bopqut even dower of which expressed its senti ment and mrs kenneth smiled to her self and sent back a cluster of daisies and that was the beginning of a desperate floral flirtation which before the week was oat criminated in a note full of exaggerated seuiojeut harmless enough as far as any j actual wroijj saying went but neverthe- less ludicrously absurd in the recipients j eyes j there must a stop be put to it for i want to see rob and marion again mrs i kenneth decided and so she sat down i and wrote a delicious little note in baok- j hand saying she would meet mr lexing- ton that evening in the parlor at half past eight an hour which found the parlor de- grew crimson youve outgeneraled me marion fairly and squarely and ill give dp the first train in the morning marion for my sake you can afford to be mag nanimous and as she felt she could the boarders at tho hotel were not a little electrified to learn at eight oclock breakfast that mr lexington and mrs kenneth had left by the 620 train together 1 its too bad lil clifford declared confidentially to miss delrymple he used me too shabbily for anything but as captain millers brother put in an appear auce the next day and miss lilas eyes made direct havoc with his masculine heart she did not wear the willow very long and hereafter when mr royal lexing- ton coas on a business trip to the country in the summer time mariou and the tots go too a7tsb twxntt tkabs no doubt she fllrtodail girls do but then yoa know the didnt mean it to me in all things she vas true a blind man even could bare soon it but thorns are lound near ertarj rose and after someiow mouth wa parted a tear drop glistened ou ber nose and i for dari wu brokenhearted a score of yean have passed away since then i lately heard about her her hair had turned a trifle grey her figure grown a great deal stouter and i since then have married twice my heart uo longer reaches toward ber for she baa 1n a widow thrice and latelrs gone to taking boarders most as good first boy had any icecream this year second boy not quite maybe they let yon lick the dish maybe they didnt neither i git but termilk and put in ice and though it aint quite icecream it comes so close that dad gins me a licking for bpendingmy money a business journey not going away again royal mrs lexington said perturbedly yes my dear going away again if that is the way you choose to put my per emptory business trip but you only came back from a busi ness tour last week and then mr royal lexington took his cigar from his mouth and looked contem platively at the end of it while he spoke in his most impressive manner marion you seem not to understand that women should not be bothering them selves continually about the why and wherefore of their husbands movements let it suffice you my dear that affairs of importance call mc from home i leave you a fair sum of money to spend i leave you to the society of your children and what more should a woman desire and marion actually pouted money- isnt everything and one docs once in a while tire of the society of a boy of four and a baby of three my dear you shock rn 1 and the lofty reproof in his tone was something simply wonderful but maynt i go tiua time royal mrs lexington pleaded lifting a pair of lovely bine eyes and gently patting her husbands hand a very handsome baud too with a cameo ring on its shapely little anger my dear no you cant aud how bug will you be gone this time royal impossible to say not bngerthan a ponth anyhow however it vnll depend upon circonutatices and where are you going 2 she asked sighing at his answer to armltage now marion but where is armitage royal a beastly utile place on the delaware road see here marion dont tease me liny more but go on with your sewing or your reading like good little girl tm j serted for the piazza and promenades awfully sleepy and thip htemar chair is j and precisely on time er lexington just the thing for a pap and hi lex- made his appearance in the duskiness of ington adjusted his handsome head- com- i the room whose only light came from the fortably on tho pillow of the chair and i swinging lamp in the hall at the piano betook himself to slumber while marion that occupied the duskiest corner sat a sat solitary aud grave and wrought some slender whiterobed figure and as mr marvellously pretty garment for baby ellington approached she arose and marion bowed and the next day she packed his valise i cannot say how grateful and do- according to his orders aud at high noon light received his goodibye kiss and his parting j he began but stopped short staring at command i her as though he could not believe tbe be as economical ae yon on my dear evidence of his senses he said as he drew on his gloves times i m marion 1 be stammered are hard and the money market growb yes royal it is i she answered with tighter every day especially keep your perfect composure eyes on the grocer bills marion and see butwhat howrwhy people told while im away if you cant cut it down me hat mrs kenneth was a widow there might be a saving in desserts might j people say very etiordiuary things there not while i am gone however who was at fault mrs samuelsou sent her little boy billy to the store after some spool cotton billy spent the money on himself in the shape of taffy and on his return his mother baid what kept you so long and where is the cotton j i didnt bring any cotton but
