1C vi i.t. r - i,\ American Press Association.] '5 hen Mbs Jeunuette Perkins weat to the country for a couple of months in summer it was for the purpose of relaxation. The winter social season "*lh Miss Perkins was her "busy day.” Ihm in the swim, with no expectation el a dowry, it w as hop business to marry an establishment. None of the young men she had met during the wini,-r that she could get tilled the measure of her requirements. Some were stupid, some dissipated, some Pfiffed with vanity and none of them quite rich enough. Miss Perkins’ social position required as a minimum $lii.itoo a year, and it was her ambition to land three or four times that oinoiu t. IIred of the social functions which she had eonslantly felt obliged to attend for a matrimonial purpose, when July came she resolved to go to some Hiiiliile class resort where she would throw oft the artificial aud be refreshed h.v tlie naiural. But even lids was a part of her general plan, for she felt thal some real lovemakiug would give zest to her abilities ns a charmer when engaged in hunting down a millionaire. Ml Perkin-: received a heart freshenin that sho had not bargained for. One Howard Dangler, a recent graduato el a ta bool for civil engluesrs, talked p enthiisin-dicnlly of the life work bet ore hiui and showed so plainly (hat hi-, career would be tile better for her wifely encouragement and afho quite flustered her.

But when, the sea - n being over, they separaled on a sleamboat landing, stai’di , r aiiart fro it the crowd, (he lovel ; *p: In Miss Perkins’ eyes was not all assumed.

How I of m.ii to look me up! You are the etily oil" of my summer acquaintances Hi t | have met again.” The words “summer acquaintances” arc spoken in an unmistakahle tone. “I have not been to your city before since 1 met you.” stammers Mr. Dangler. “in - I would have” Then, seeing that lie i- making matters worse, he stops and reddens. Mi - I’erkins does not help him. Indeed. she sits mute, waiting for him to untangle himself He goes off into something about “that delightful season." cheeks himself and. with a touch of melancholy, speaks of tlie “formal wittier." t lien conies again to a stop. I'liis time Miss Perkins condescends to make a remark. "Do you remain for some time in the

city?”

The words conveyed the Idea that ! she would he w illing he should leave hy the next train. Py this time Mr. Dangler was beginning to re. over himself. Whon he i spoke s was in a conventional tone, yvilli v. hieh be seemed to be quite j as familiar as Miss Perkins. "I shall lie Hero all w inter.” be said, j "but I fear 1 hall see little of you in oeiefy. for i shall he very busy.

I’m sure I have kept you altogether too long for a mere summer acquaintance." During these developments the beat of Mi:-- Perkins’ heart had gone down lo something like forty to the minute. | Nbe saw the opportunity of a lifetime pass without a possibility of even a clutch. Though Mr. Dangler spoke In a quiet tone, he gave no sign that Miss I’erkins could even be to him more than ti summer acqualnUince. Coldly, but courteously, he left her. Mi- I’erkins kept her room for throe da\ ; and when she reappeared looked as If she had been keel hauled. She had it" heart for her winter campaign, and it was a failure. Site met Mr. D m h r several times in company during the season, and on one occasion he wn pr<“ ehled to her He did not refer to ever having met her before. MARY A. BOWERS.

[Copyright, 1: >x, by American Press Asso- | elution.) We were but a day out from Bremen when a seaman stepped up to mo and, saluting, said, "Mr. Warren, one of the men on the lower deck heard a cough among the freight and after a search for stowaways pulled out a girl." “A girl!" I exclaimed, surprised. “Yes, sir; a girl." 1 directed the stowaway to be brought up on deck In order to look ! her <nvr with a view to determining j how mui h work she could stand and I wh it kind of work to give her, for our | orders were to work stowaways so hard a--, to render that method of gaining free transportation undesirable. The gi; I came up frightened, but after ti glance at the oeeau, seeing that we were well away from land, a look of triumph crossed her features. Knowing by my uniform that I was an ottlcer, she stood demurely before me, with her eyes on the disk. She was very fair indeed, so fair that I knew she came from my native north. “What have you done this for?” 1 asked her. “Don’t you know that we work stowaways harder than those who hire themselves to us honestly?” She dhl not reply. Only a faint Hush passed over her fare. The longer I looked at her the more her delicate beauty grew upon me. Her features, especially her mouth, could not have been more exquisite if they had been chiseled by tin artist, and, though her clothes were soiled and torn, she had not been long enough In the hold to show the elTccts usual to stowaways. There was something piteous about the slender, shrinking figure that deterred me from visiting the usual hardships due to such offenders. bat’s .\oitr name?” 1 asked. "l iretrhen." ‘‘Well. Drelelicn, you have been a very foolish girl. You’ll be worked hard, and if you can’t show that you can sit ort yourself when you get to New Y<tU yen will be sent back.” At that moment tin - captain came along and. taking In the situation, relicvcd me of all responsibility. He was a terror to stowaways and sent the girl away to be worked day and night. I shuddered, for 1 knew the delicate frame before me could scarcely stand the ordeal. \ny word of protest from me would only result in a heavier strain for the girl. We had stormy weather all the way over. Hsgichen. though seasick, was forced to continue at her duties. Every moment of the day and much of the night she was cither at work in the galley under I lie brad cook or in the cabins under the stewardess, and both were ordered lo make her life misera ble. The weather kept us all busy, and I saw nothing of her till we reached New York. Then on the day of our arrival I saw well. It was what remained of the poor girl. In five days her beauty had departed. Her cheeks w ‘re sunken and had taken on a bluish white tint. Her eyes wore a hunted look; her arms were bones covered only with a bloodless skin. Slie was tottering to the gangway to go a-liore with the immigrants. She carried no bags or bundles like the rest- indeed, she would not have been able to carry them if she had pos sessed them. I was off duty and. going up to her, took her arm and steadied her down the gangway. I went with her into the room where the disembarked immigrants assembled for examination. Suddenly she gave a cry and, break Ing aw ay from me, ran toward a young man standing with his hands In his pockets watching the crowd come into the in. “Hans,” she called, "I am here!” Tlie young man drew back from this skeleton of a girl In filthy rags and with unkempt hair. “I am Hretchen. Oh, Hans, don’t you know me?” Hans stared at Iter curiously. Gradually he showed signs of recognizing her. She was his betrothed and had come as a stowaway to marry him. He knew of her coming and was there to meet her. But the sight of her after her torture was too much for him Without ti word he turned and left the place. Gretchen fell fainting Into my arms Site was deported in the same ship in which slie had come over, but she did not work her passage. The government attended to that. One night while I was on duty I saw a woman’s figure come up a compan lonway and make a dash for the gun wale. She was half over when I caught her and dragged her back. She was Gretchen. I placed her In a deck chair and questioned her. I learned Hint she had lived in the German province from which 1 had come. I secured a promise that she would make no further attempt on tier life. I also got some belter clothes for her and a berth In the second cabin. On the day we reached Hamburg 1 was leaning over the rail of the bridge, looking down at some second class passengers on their deck watching for laud. Suddenly my eyes met those of Gretchen. Decently dressed, much of the color back In her cheeks, the look of suffering faded from her eye, she was again something of the beauty I had met os a stowaway. For the first time since that meeting she smiled at me. My life is different now from what It was lief ore this episode. Then when ashore I grew tired of idleness and myself and was glad to get hack to sea. Now I have n cottage near Hamburg and when coming Into port can see a figure standing liefore It thro wing 'me kisses. It Is Gretchen. my wife. I and the mother of my children. | BEVERLY WORTHINGTON
