A LOVE STORY
“Then,” she said, “you leave me to infer tr it your name is an atrocious one.”
PAINTED WITHOUT CONSENT
Love ana the summer both were j<> un g And so were man and maid. When under leafy boughs I swung Her hammock in the shade; The bird? in happiness above With lyrics filled the air. And here was Eden, here was love. And here my sweetheart fair.
“My name is well enough,” he said. “But let it go. There are other things to hold our attention. In the first place, how do we stand socially—and financially? Wait, please. I am about to tell you something concerning myself.” “Not the story of your life!”
His Hair Was Green and His Whiskers
Were Red. “Can Hie Ethiopian change his skin.
or the leopard his spots?”
No. but Michael Feeney of Parkviile can do a stunt worth two of either of those. His friends say that it really isn’t so bad; the green’s above the red where It should be and that’s some consolation, says the New York Sun. Rut Michael Feeney himself doesn't see it that way. Patriotism’s all very well in i;s place, but when a man has bright green hair and red whlskne it’s going too far. And besides, these sentiments were not voluntarily expressed; they were forced upon him. This is how it happened: Mr. Feeney .was strolling along the quiet streets of Parkville when he caught sight of two of his friends. Mr. Bill Forker and Mr. Bill Brady, engaged in painting tbe cottage owned by Mrs. Chambers. Mr. Forker was slapping on red paint and Mr. B; ady was doing the trimmings with gre.-.n. Being artistic by nature, Mr. Feeney approached the spot, where they were working. “The top of th’ marnin’ to yez,” said he to his friends. But the two at work were engaged in a heated argument and paid no attention to the interruption. “Oi don’t helave it,” said Brady. “Now Oi’m tellln’ yez roight. Why, it’s all over the place.” said Forker. Mr. Feeney became curious. “Phwat’s the news, byes; phwat’s all over the place?” "Mud,” says Brady, and the two painters began to laugh. "Oi suppose that ye mane thot by way of a joke,” said Feeney. Then be started for the street, Forker slipped up to his side and drew tbe red paint brush quickly across his whisk°rs. As the old man turned upon his decorator Brady slipped up from the other side, knocked off his hat, and drew the green paint brush deftly over his head He was angry at being hit, but never for a moment suspected that be bad been painted a swell. “So t hot’s the way ye trate me friendly advances is It?” said Feeney. Shaking bis fist at the two, he turned on his heel and started for home. On his way several persons looked sharply at him and then turned away and snickered. Feeney began to suspect that all was not as it should lie. but he was not prepared for the sight ’.bat met his eyes when he looked ino the mirror at his home.

Thought I, no need of winning words To set her heart astir; Silent, I’ll let the poet birds Sing of my love to her. Dumb for an hour I sat, and this Is just what happened then — I turned and stole a timid kiss. Another, and again.
“Not exactly. But pray do not interrupt. I am thirty-one, in good health, no serious habits, fairly goodlooking, measurably ambitious and something of a favorite where I am best known. I have a comfortable situation in connection with a down town oirice, ana mere is a neat nctie sum lying to my credit in a certain bank. I think I might even compass tile cost of a modern cottage.” “That’s nice,” she said. "I have a little balance on a bank book myself.” “That’s nice, too,” said the man. “Do you think it would cover the cost of the furniture?”

“If carefully invested,” said the girl “I think it would."
“I’m glad of that,” the man commented. “I never believe in adopting the installment plan where you can raise the cash. And now be equally frank and tell me about yourself.” “No,” said the. girl, “I’m too much prejudiced in favor of the subject. Let’s hear your opinion.”

A GAME OF CHAFF.
The great house loomed darkly before the young man who paused for a moment at the iron gates. Then he stepped forward briskly and passing around the mansion rang the bell at the side door. It was almost immediately answered by a young woman who put her finger to her lips as she ushered him in.
"All right,” said the man; “but. of course. I’m prejudiced, too. At the same time it is a good thing to air one’s prejudices occasionally. If our prejudices do not agree pray correct me from time to time. To begin with, you are beautiful. Then you are fairly intelligent. You have a nimble wit, but you have been somewhat spoiled. Eh, you don’t like that? Nevertheless, it is quite evident that your employers have been too indulgent. Oh, yes, they have. And yet one who really—admired you. could overlook this—shall 1 say painful—defect—in time.” “Is that all?”

She took him into an apartment that might have been the breakfast room and motioned him towards a chair.
“Can't I shake hands with you?” he asked. “It seems like quite an age since we parted.” “Thank you,” she said and gave him her hand. “It was just two weeks ago to-day—if that can be considered an age.”
"Ail I could dilate on your attractions until the gray fingers of the dawn beckoned me away!” “How nicely you express yourself. 1 had only to shut my eyes to hear the surf beat on the shore and the band softly thrumming on the hotel piazza.” “What a lovely time we had—while it lasted. How those golden moments scuttled through pleasure’s hourglass!” “There you go again. But we did have a lovely time deceiving each other, didn’t we?” “It was our foolish vanity that did the deceiving-—our hearts were as true as steel.”
“Thank you for remembering the day,” he gravely said. "1 will admit,” said the girl with a little blush, “that it was quite an episode in my life. I’d never had such an opportunity before.” “No?” he said with a slightly rising inflection. He looked at her with a curious expression. She was a pretty girl, a very pretty girl, and though her hair was smoothed into plainness and surmounted by a simple little white cap, its beauty and luster seemed brightened by this attempt at concealing them. Her gown was plain, too, and over it she wore a fresh white apron.

I wouldn’t have asked you here at all, but Miss Ainslie counseled it. She said it was my duty to undeceive you. That is all, I think.

“I was silently admiring the way your father says Grace,” remarked Warren Hayes. “Come,” said the girl sharply, “what is that special business you have with papa to-morrow morning?” “And here I’ve been openly crediting you with unusual cleverness,” said Warren Hayes, with a despairing gesture. “Yet I fancy you half suspect. The fact is, Miss Grace Ainslie, alias Thingamy, that when a young woman admits her devoted admirer through the side door it is about time for papa’s consent to be asked.” “You are a rude and hasty man, said the girl. “And 1 suppose you are just conceited enough to fancy that you will succeed with the father as well as —I mean that you hope to succeed with the daughter as well asi you think you’ll succeed with the father.

“I was about to tell you," he replied. “You see. that as the petted heiress, Grace A'.nsiie, you seemed as far above me as a itar. I was mad to write to you to-day. But now it’s different.
