The word is. according to good authority, derived from the Punic Shafan-rabbit. This animal has been very numerous in the country, often destroying whole crops. African ferrets were kept to drive the animals out of their holes. We find the rabbit often represented on old Spanish coins. Leaving What? Wifey looked out the window.

r • ••••••• • • | HER HOPE CHEST | » By SYLVIA TURNER. "I never saw one before, Cousin Jess. It must he more fun getting it stpeked up. How do you start one? Do you hine to wait until you meet someone you like best?" "No. You start in on hopes, clear, don’t you see? You hope the right one may come, and you try to be ready for him." "But didn't you ever—you don't mind my asking, do you—liuve anybody—l mean—didn't it over seem as If you might use the things?" “Yes. once." Jessica’s tone was quite impersonal and cheery. "When 1 was nineteen. We had u new minister. He wa? 4Ulte young, and very talented. It
il was a shuttle to waste him here in this I, little dead and alive place. We were r engaged to*be married for several () mouths." 3 “Then whnt?" Dora rested her . rounded chin on her palm eagerly. She did admire this self-sufficient, charming cousin greatly. After the steady ■ round of humdrum life in Hollywood ' is was like n real glimpse into the out- ; side world of endeavor and achieve* t nieut to have her visit them. ; “Then I just broke it. Because he . refused a call to a city church. I was ambitious, and he felt that his duty 1 lay here.” “But haven't you ever really been 1 iu love —I mean so it hurt you?" “Yes, I have loved, richly and fully, and, niy dear, he never knew. Close < > up the hope chest. I'll give you everything in it when you are ready to have your own bridal veil pinned on." “And not one single word more i would she say, mother, dear,” Dora ex- i claimed that night when she had told Mrs. Dinsmore of the* hope chest story. "Who do you suppose it was'*" Mrs. Dinsmore shook her head with t a little smile. But the following day : while she was driving through the little t town with Jessica she bowed to someone just emerging from the City hotel. t "It’s Greg she said cas- i ually. “He’s our city attorney, and run- " ning for the legislature, too. He made ■ a splendid record on some factory 1 cases. He pushed several cases ::t , won them. Hurley I-r ’ _ r | . . ,-tuMe stood back ot bin auc. -»-'itie better town element on his side. You remember Harley, of course. He’s still minister here at Grace church.” “I —I always thought he was so conservative,” said Jessica, haltingly. She was frowning. “Well, he was, until he married Nellie Stevens. She made a splendid wife for Hurley. It means everything to a man, what kind of a woman he chooses for a wife. To a man like either liar- ; ley or Greg Ivesson, marriage would meun more than just love and companionship. A woman would be the in- ’ splration of their life. If she could not be this, I am sure —” | Jessica gave a quick cry as the horse swerved and backed. In an instant it lead reared and bolted straight down the street, headed for the railroad tracks. Greg Ivesson had just stepped into his car when the horse started. As it *vung down the street he followed, bending low over the wheel, seeing, not so much the swaying carriage, as • the figure to the right—Jessica Hayes. I ' Just as tney came to the trucks there was a whistle of the down express. 1 , It did not stop at Hollywood, he knew, | ■ and the frenzied horse made straight I ’ for the crossing with ears laid back and staring eyes. How he did it he I
never could have told, but he turned : the car directly across its path, and ; the two came together heavily, the car and the carriage, but the express swept on. And the figure on the ground was Greg’s. Jessica’s stay had lengthened from one week to six. Every day she went with Mrs. Dinsmore to call at the ho- ( tel and ask after Greg. During the , time when he lay unconscious that first | day she sat alone, thinking of all her aunt had said. A woman should be the inspiration for a man like him or Harley. She had not been. When Greg was better Mrs. Dinsmore insisted on his coming up to the Pines as her guest for a rest. “You know, in spite of his success, he leads rather a monotonous life. You won’t mind, will you Jess?” innocently. “Oh, not at all,” answered Jess. “I’m going Monday, anyway.” But Sunday as she passed along the walk to the street to join Dora she heard her name spoken. Greg came toward her from the stables. I “You’ve changed so wonderfully.” he said to her. “I remember you as a girl here. I mean when you were about eighteen. Perhaps you never guessed it, but I was awfully In love with you then.” “I never guessed it,” said Jessica. ' with a curious little smile. “I expect I was rather selfish.” | “But even though I never told you, Jess, you became my inspiration in my work. A real love is that to a man. I Perhaps if I had married you then, we would have been unfitted for each other, while now—well, I'm waiting for your answer, dear.” When Dora heard the news of the coming wedding she gave a little cry of make-believe regret. “Oh, Cousin Jess, I lose the hope . chest, don’t I?” But Jessica shook her head smilingly. , “You may keep it, dear. I’d rather I, start out on new hopes titan those burlied away tn old lavender.” | (Copyright, 1917, by the McClure Newepa, l per Syndicate.) I
