THE TIMES.

The Fairy Godmother. By JEROME SPRAGUE.

Copyrighted. 1308, by Associated Literary Press. Bubbles didn't care -whether it was appropriate or not; she -wanted It, and she was saving up her money to get it. Every morning when she went to the store she found the girls talking of tlielr summer hats. "What kind are you going to have?" they would ask her, and Bubbles would laugh the gay bubbling laugh that had given her her nickname and would say, "Wait and see, girls; wait and see." "Oh. piffle I" one of them said on a certain June morning. "I don't believe you're going to get a hat." "Wait and see; wait and see," said Bubbles provokingly. And then after the store was closed she went around the corner and looked nt the hat with the white feather. The price was in plain sight ?10. Bubbles earned $4 a week. Out of that she paid her aunt 2.50 for board. Fifty cents went for car fare, and the rest she had for herself. Since last summer she had managed to save $9.50, and the other fifty would add the complete amount necessary to buy the hot with the white feather. She decided to tell Alice Forbes about it. Alice was at the ribbon counter. while Bubbles sold notions. Their acquaintance rose from the fact that they walked home in the same direction. "I'll have to wear it with all my old blue suit." Bubbles said as she went along. "But I don't care. I've made myself a white net waist, and it's awfully becoming." "Ten dollars Is a lot for a hat," Alice said quietly. But Bubbles laughed, with her head flung up and her bright eyes shining 'Oh. what's the use of living," she said, "if a girl can't have something pretty now and then?" Alice nodded. Her blue eyes were wistful. "That's what I think," she said. "Now, there's a remnant of riblion at my counter. It's white, with bunches of pink roses on it. It would make a lovely girdle, and I could buy a while dress for 1." cents a yard and a little wreath of pink roses in the mil linery department, and then I could be bridesmaid for Millie Drake." "Does she want you to be?" Bubbles asked, with interest. "Yes," Alice said. "Jimmie Bryan is to be best man." "Ob.:" Bubbles was silent for a moment. Then she asked, "Don't you think you can afford the dress?" "No," Alice said r.nietly, "I can't. And I told Millie last night to ask vou. Bubbles. I knew you wouldn't mind j being asked second, because I'm her oldest friend. I laid the piece of flowered ribbon away this morning, so that If you wanted it you could have it. 5"ou could make a white net skirt to your new waist. It would be awfully pretty with the pink roses." But Bubbles was looking at her curiously. "Don't you mind." she asked "I mean not beinat bridesmaid?'' "Yes, 1 do," Alice said, ."nd Bubbles Eaw that her eyes were full of tears. "But 1 have to give all of my money to mother now that father Is sick and can't work." "Well, it's a hard old world," Bubbles remarked as they reached the corner where they separated. "If I decide to take the ribbon, Alice, I'll let you know in the morning." At the nest corner Bubbles met Jimmie Bryan. "Jimmie." she said, with her gray eyes challenging him "Jimmie, are you going to be best man at Millie's wedding?" "Sure." answered Jimmie "cutaway, white flower in my coat and all the rest of the agony." "And me to walk up the aisle with you?" said Bubbles. Jimmie looked at her in surprise. "I thought Alice was going was going to do it." he said. "Alice can't get the clothes." Bubbles informed him, "and if I wasn't a celflsh pig I'd get them for her, but I want a white feather in my summer hat." Jimmie hesitated. "Look here. Bubbles," he said a little awkwardly, "ain't there some way you could make Alice think you were getting her dress and let me pay for it? I'd like to do It." Bubbles caught her breath quickly. "Why, Jimmie!" she said. Jimmie flushed. "She has an awful hard time," he said. "Yes, she does." Bubbles agreed abstractedly. She was a little white, but she still smiled at Jimmie. "So you don't want me to be bridesmaid with you?" she teased, still with a funny catch In her breath. "Aw, Bubbles," he stammered, "you know I think you're about the nicest thing ever" "But you'd rather have Alice walk up the aisle with you," was her quiet reminder. "I wouldn't," he declared stoutly, "but I'm sorry for Alice." "Of course," Bubbles agreed, and then she went on to plan. "I could get ber the things and tell her the money had come to me unexpectedly." "I am afraid that wouldn't do," was Jimmie's worried response. "She'd feel as if she had to pay It back. You get the things and send them to her and don't bave any mark on the box, and she'll never know where they came from." ".Well. I caoT rt' the things -yrt

talked about," Bubbles said, "or ebt would know right away. Do you cara how much you spend, Jimmie?" "No," he told her with the reckless

ness of the skilled laborer who earns j his $3 a day; "no, I don't." I "Then I'll get a robe dress of pinki mull with a wreath of silver roses. She'll look like a dream, Jimmie." "I hope she will," Jimmie said, and Bubbles sighed. "Goodby, Jimmie," she said as she came to the tenement where she lived on the third floor. lie looked at her anxiously. "You're not cut up about not being bridesmaid, are you?" he asked. Khe shook her head. "No," she answered bravely. "Well, you're pretty nice. Bubbles," he said heartily, and then he went on his way. When Bubbles reached home she took out her hoarded store of money. With what she would add on her next pay day she would have $10, and she could buy the hat with the white feather. She fingered the money for a moment, and then she dropped her head on her arm with a sob, for Bubbles had wanted that hat to wear to church on Sunday morning when she sang in the choir with Jimmie Bryan. It had been for Jimmie's admiration that she had craved the pretty hat. And, after all, it was Alice that Jimmie cared for. Two days later Alice came to her counter breathlessly. "Oh, Bubbles," she said, "such p wonderful thing has happened'." "What?" asked Bubbles Innocently. And then Alice told her of the won cJerful gown and the dainty accessories that had come the night before in a big box. "I can't imagine who sent them." "It must have been a fairy godmother," said Bubbles demurely. "And now I can be Millie's bridesmaid," caroled Alice when she had exhausted all her conjectures as to tha giver. "You won't mind, will you, Bubbles?" "No," said Bubbles steadily. And as she sold needles and pins and hooks and eyes and whalebones and a hundred and one other things that day she told herself that she did not care. Why should she want to walk beside Jimmie Bryan when he preferred to have Alice? She passed the window with the hat with the white feather that night with out a glance, and on Sunday she wore a plain little black sailor with a cheap red rose, and 6he looked prettier than ever in Jt. "Alice thinks you're a fairy god mother," she told Jimmie after service. "Say, did she like it?" he demanded. "Of course she did," said Bubbles. "Who wouldn't?" But Jimmie did not answer imme-, diately. He stood looking down at her. "fay, little girl." he said presently, "you look mighty nice In that hat." It cost just $1.0S," Bubbles informed him glibly, "marked down from $2." "1 don't care what it cost," Jimmie staled. "You look mighty nice." Bubbles couldn't resist saying. "But nt half as nice as Alice will in that pink robe." "Bubbles, I believe you're jealous," flashed Jimmie unexpectedly. Bubbles' cheeks flamed. "Why, Jimmie Bryan!" she faltered. "Look here," Jimmie demanded, "did you think I was in love with Alice?'' I'nder his keen scrutiny Bubbles was forced to admit, "I couldn't very well help it, could I?" "I was afraid you would," Jimmie said, "that dav when I planned to get her the things, hut I had promised. Oh, look here. Bubbles, you come out to the park with me, and I'll tell you about it." And all the way to the park Bubbles' heart sang, and she seemed to walk on air. and she was glad that she hadn't bought the hat with the white feather. She was glad shn hadn't been extravagant, for Jimmie seemed to like her just as well in the black sailor with the red rose. In the park the beds were full of Jonquils and tulips and hyacinths and crocuses, and under the flowering almond tree Jimmie and Bubbles sat down to talk. "You see," Jimmie explained, "there's Bob Travers, and he's in the navy, and he's away on a three years' cruise, and he made me promise that I'd look after Alice they've been in love with each" other since they were kids and when Alice's father got sick I tried to help, but they wouldn't let me, and it seemed as if getting her the dress would be what Bob would want me to do, and now he's going to get home in time for the wedding, and I told Millio she'd have to have him for best man." "Oh!" cried Bubbles, aglow with happiness. "And then I told her how much I thought of you, and she wants us to be in the wedding party, and Oh, well, look here, Bubbles." And in the shadow of the flowering almond he held out his arms. And Bubbles, having wept a little weep of joy on his broad shoulder, sat up and wiped her eyes. "Ain't I glad I didn't spend all my money for that feather, Jimmie?" she said. "Ill get the white net skirt and wear the rosebut ribbon" "And a diamond ring," interrupted Jimmie. "A diamond ring! What for?' demanded Bubbles. "Because we're engaged," said Jimmie rapturously. Economy Begins at Home. "I hear yon're teaching youT son to flay draw poker. Do yon think that Tvise?" "Certainly. He's bound to learn from some one. If be learns from me It keeps the moDey io the family." New Tort -Life - - -

With reference to the fiftieth annl Tersary of the first railway in France, a French contemporary points out that it was in connection with this event that the virtues of pommes souf fles were discovered. A French chef was traveling; on the new line from Paris to St. Germain, and was pre paring in the train the banquet which was to eelehrate the opening. Just before arriving at St. Germain he threw some potatoes in the boiling butter. The train, however, was delayed, and the potatoes had to be taken out again. When the train restarted the potatoes were once again put in the boiling butter, and to every one's delirht were found, on being taken out, to be deliciously light and inflated. The beauties of the pomme souffle had been revealed. London Gloto. Globe. A Yoga's Feat. For 14 years Bava Luchman Da?9 received from the priests of the Black Caves of central India the necessary education in order to become a yoga, as a yoga must be capable of taking the 4S postures of the Hindoo idols. Perhaps his greatest trick consists in balancing himself on the ends of his fingers while the whole of hl3 body is in the air. Bava stated that In order to obtain the rank of yoga in the Black Caves of India he had to continue in this position on the ends of his fingers under the eyes of the Judges, without a second's interval, for seven days and nights! Strand Magazine. Dignity of Authorship. One of the abler modern writers made this confession the other day: ',1 am so devoted to my wife that I allow her to break In upon me whenever ehe pleases. Naturally, she cuts into my line of thought and often destroys the continuity of genius. The only way for me to do a, good day's work Is to quarrel with her. to make her so angry that she will cry, fuss, break a few dishes, smash a kitten, scald a puppy or two, then go to her room and stay there. By the time I have done a lay's work she is in excellent humor and tired of being alone. Then we make up." Who Pays for This?
