THE
MATCH-MAKING BLIZZAKI).
Carrie Welton, the little school teacher at Smithtown, had for some months been wishing that some change of fortunlB would take hexaway from this dreary neighborhod, so full of depressing memories.
She had not always hateii the place so—in tact, some of the happiest hours of her lite had been spent there, but that was before she had quarreled with Alexander Hall and he had sold out and moved to Dakota.
It was her own fault that she had lost him, and that did not make lier feel any the better. Just out of co quetry she had accepted the atten tions of a commercial traveler who ocasionally visited the town. Hall resented this, and a quarrel was the result.
She was therefore delighted to get a letter irom her Uncle Tom one morning from Dakota. He had taken up a quarter section of land and was doing well, and suggested that as many women out there were doing the same, it mignt be to her interests to take up a claim and try farming.
Carrie had no sooner finished the letter than her decision was lormed to go. She wrote her uncle that she would arrive within the next three weeks, and she was with him in less than two. "I have the lumber all ready for your little house," he said, as he drove her from the station to his "bachelor hall."
Somehow she was lighter hearted and happier since she knew she was in Dakota than she had been for months. She knew why—she did not cheat herself. It was because she was in the same country with Alexander Hall. It gave her a sense of companionship —this very knowledge. "In the morning I will take you out and show you your claim." continued her uncle. "And I've «iioten this site for your cabin. It'll be about a mile from mine—just a nice walk for you when von get lonesome."
The next morning was bright and sunn v. but of course windy. "What a wind! Does it blow often like this?" asked Carrie'as they rolled along over the smooth prairie. "Wind?" Why this is a calm day, my dear." said Uncle Tom. "Wait until you have seen a Dakota blizzard, my dear, j^efore you talk of wind.".-,
Soon they came to Carrie's "quarter section." as Uncle Tom called it. Carrie could not see where it began or left ot'r, she told Uncle Tom. 11 was like all the rest of the country--just land, and nothing more: prairie as far as the eye could reach. "Well, but I know where the invisible lines lie," responded Upcle Torn. "Now.0)ver yonder in that knoll your cabin will be built, after we have attended to the legal formalities, and that is the extreme southern limit of your claim. A little south of it there is a slight ravine, and then another knoll. The ravine is the dividing line between two quarter sections."
Who owns the other one?" asked Carrie, very anxious to know who might be her neighbor. "I don't believe it is taken, though I heard something about it the other day. Some fellow was looking it up I believe. There are some dozen of them around almost daily. That was the reason I was in a hurry1 for you to come."
A few days later, after the legal formalities had been attended to. Uncle Tom drove Carrie out again to look at the cabin that was in process of erection on the opposite knoll. "Why. that claim has been taken, too! 1 wonder who will be my neighbor?" queried Carrie. "I can find out at the land office," Uncle Tom replied.
He did so and gave Carrie the desired information the next day. "It's some fellow named Hall—A. Hall," he said. "He just sold out his interest in some claim about fifty miles north of here, and now he's taking up this, which he intends to keep as a homestead. They often sell out at a nice figure after staying a few months on a claim. Some fellow pays them a good round sum for their chance and they go elsewhere."
Carrie felt a sudden leaping of her heart and a curious excitement at the sound of the familiar name. But was it likely that this was Alexander? It would be too wonderful to be true.
Yet it was Alexander! She saw him at the postoffice the next day, and passed him without so much as a glance. He looked as if she had been an apparition, and took a step forward and then stood still, chilled by her cold glance in which there was no recognition. He knew he had conducted himself like a brute and an idiot when he left Smithtown. He had realized it a dozen times since—realized it constantly, in fact—with a dull heartache, whenever he was alone with himself. But he had never been quite brave and manly enough to write and ask her pardon, believing ere this that Mr. Parker had the first place in her heart. And now she was here in Dakota! How strange!
A greater surprise awaited him in the knowledge that Carrie's claim- and cabin were just opposite his own. The two cabins were completed and furnished, and the occupants moved in. Alexander's was the more pretentious of the two in the exterior, and Carrie's the more sumptuous within. For she had brought her books and she had a few plants and with those indescribable ornaments, which some women •seem to create by a turn of their, hand, her rooms were very cosy. "Got acquainted with your neighbors yet, Carrie?" asked Uncle Tom after\a month had passed.
"No, and I don't want his acquaintance," answered Carrie, rather icily, "Nice fellow, I think," said Uncle Tom. "He's got business in him, and will make a successful man. He's taken up a tree claim now. I was talking with him today." "What is a tree claim?" asked Carrie. "Oh, you plant so many trees and have them growing at a certain stated time—say two years—and the land is yours. He said you might do that and be worth just so much more. It would cost you but a trifle to have trees planted." "He is taking an interest in my affairs, is he? Well, nobody thanks him for his advice," snapped Carrie in a voice unusual to her.
Uncle Tom wondered what had come over the girl, usually so sweet tempered.
The weeks went by, and November came. Carrie was on the third month of her six. She had made a great many friends, and had read and sewed and had made her uncle's cabin and her own very pretty and comfortable, and she felt that her time had been well employed.
One 'November day Carrie was "tacking" a comforter, which she had pieced together out of bits of calico. The wind had been blowing with increased lury from the northwest all day. Toward evening it became terrible, and a sleety snow began to fall. It seemed to shake the frail little cabin to its foundation. Carrie felt her heart sink with fear. This was something beyond any of her former experiences, and she remembered what Uncle Tom had said of a "blizzard." "This must surely be a blizzard," she thought.
Higher and higher rose the wind, louder and louder and still louder it shrieked. The walls of the house shook, trembled and then—Carrie was conscious of being lifted into the air by some unseen force, and whirled through the darkness and then falling. After that all was blank.
She was only stunned, and when she opened her eyes she found herself in a confused mass of ruins, and Alexander Hall was kneeling by her caling her name. "It was not necessary to come over," she said. "I ,am not hurt in the least." "Come over!" he repeated breaking into a laugh. "It is you who have conic over, Miss Carrie and 1 am very glad to see you, even in this unceremonious manner." "What do you mean?" she asked. "Why 1 mean that you came, house and all, and planted yourself right in my dooryard with a thunderous clatter. It is a wonder your neck was not broken, my dear." "Do you really mean, "Alexander, that my house blew over into your yard?" "I mean just that, Carrie. I always thought your cabiu rather shaky—mine is twice as substantial—and now you will be obliged to accept my hospitality for the present. Fortunately, I have a man and wife stopping with me this week. They have slept soundly all through this cyclone. They are used to the country. But I will wake the good woman now, and she will attend to you."
The next day Alexander said to her: "Since you unbent sufficiently to call upon me in such an unceremonions manner, Carrie, before I beg your pardon for my old disagreeable meanness, can't you stoop still further and marry me. now that I do most humbly crave your forgiveness? I have always loved you."
Of course Carrie could not refuse. 'Pon my soul!" said Uncle Tom, when he had heard the whole story.
It's better than a magazine yarn! You are the heroine, Carrie, and Alexander is the hero, and I am the sort of good angel, you know, that fixes things UP "You and the blizzard," laughed Carrie.
Four Supper Dishes.
A housewife noted for the excellence of her cuisine gav^he following formulas:
Bake large, mealy potatoes in their skins until nearly done. Take from the oven and cut a slice from the top, leaving the skin on one side to form a sort of hinge with a fork pull out the underdone heart, and fill the hollow thus made with a^tiny shaving of smoked bacon peppered and rolled tightly. Close the potato and put back in the oven to finish cooking.
For Cheese Souffle—Pour two cups of hot milk over two cups of soft bread crumbs add a cup of grated cheese and three beaten eggs bake as an omelet (this will make two), and when one side is done set it in the oven until brown. A much longer time is required in the cooking than for the ordinary omelet. It should puff to a thickness of at least two inches and be of a uniform golden brown. 5 .^4
An odd but especially delicious omelet is made by mixing six eggs, beaten, two teaspoonfuls of melted butter, two of grated cheese, salt and pepper, with taragon, chives, and parsley chopped fine. Put butter the size of a walnut in a pan and cook as an ordinary omelet, or finish in the oven as for a couffle.
For curried eggs, cut one apple and one onion in thin rings and fry a golden brown in butter sift into this a dessert spoonful each of curry powder and flour, and dilute with half a pint of water lay in four hard boiled eggs, shelled and quartered. Serve in wall of boiled rice.
A girl encourages a young man to stay out late during courtship and then kicks because he heeps it up after marriage.
