Eddie’s Doom

tSS PARK always sat With her knitting in a corner of the hotel lobby and took note Os things,” Wrote the girlfriend. “Even the colors she Was knitting int-’ her shawl were harsh and disagreeable ■■ —purple and crude pinks. The jet beads about her neck 1 winked cOI d1 y and her shrewd eyes rivaled them in expression. Totally innocent people of sensi-

tive natures paled when impaled- by her stare. Those with mild sins ert their consciences made energetic detours to avoid, her. ’ “The only human being who appeared even to tolerate her society was Eddie Hartley, woo sunny of temperament that he would have beamed'upon his executioner or smiled winningly upon, his -deadliest enemy. That was why, although he was past--25 and six feet tall, every one called him Eddie instead of Edward. “When' he started in after his arrival to recuperate from typhoid fever he-sat cheerfully and played checkers with Miss Park or held her eyerjasting skeins of yarn or even chatted with her; but when he began to show color in his face and get about a little Alicia Phelps and her moth r had made their appearance. Presently it happened- that Alic'ia and Eddie Hartley were .always either on the point of starting off somewhere together or were just returning or else they had something desperately important to communicate to one another and had to flock by themselves to say it. “The rest of us smiled amusedly at the incipient romance. Because we did not notice her, anyhow, we neglected to observe that Miss Park was not among those who smiled. Besides, she had never been known to smile. “The third time Miss Park saw Eddie and Alicia sitting side by side in the secluded Japanese corner was the ci-owning touch. Eddie bubbled over when he. rehearsed the scene to us later. “ 'She said she had my interests at heart,’. he quoted, his eyes resting mirthfully on Alieia, ‘and she could not bear to see me wasting time on a girl so frivolous and unmindful of the higher interests of life that she had to change her gown four times a day! That for you, Miss Alicia! Also she Intimated that you were a dangerous Young person seeking to beguile me!’ “Thereupon all of us set about aiding and abetting the comradeship of Eddie Hartley and Alicia.. It was enough that it irritated Mias Park, so everyone lent.an enthusiastic hand. “Daily her opinion of Alicia dropped lower; from stern glances she passed to audible sniffs at her sight. When she vowed -to some kind friend —tvho forthwith repeated it—that that designing- girl was trying to ‘rope in’ Eddie for his money it seemed more serious. “ ‘Hateful old creature!' stormed Alicia,' with a stamp of her small brown shoe. ‘What possesses her, anyhow; ,1 never did anything disagreeable to her—why won’t she let me alone?’ ' ■ ' • “Miss Park almost wept over Eddie’s approaching doom when she could get to listen. She said he was such a fine, noble young man that it was a shame he should be sacrificed. Her checkerboard was put away and her-purple and pink knitting grew er- • ratio in spots. , ' “Eddie Hartley bore her frequent lectures with sweet tolerance, promptly rehearsing them to Alicia as soon as. lie could escape: They alternately chuckled and raged over what Miss Park said and kept on their glad young • way? ■ J ' .i. L “All of ms. said that Miss Park should be ashamed of herself and that sne was an uncharitable, sour, horrid old woman with a grudge agaJnst all things young and'happy and that she was so disagreeable by nature she could not help it. “When just before Alicia, and her mother Went back east the news got out that she and Eddie Hartley really were engaged, our natural polite and sympathetic joy was intensified to. raptqre as we reflected how infuriated it would make Miss Park. In the general- opinion it was a direct judgment upon her and served her right for being so meddlesome. “That was why I was startled into speechlessness that evening when I stumbled on someone crying in a dark corner of the hotel veranda underneath the Cherokee rose vine and discovered it was Miss Park. •“ ‘I can’t help it,’ she quavered. ‘He; was so nice to me—and now I suppose he’ll never have time to play checkers with me again!’ “When you come to think of it, if you were a cranky, elderly woman that only one person in the world had ever been nice to, it might have affected you in the same way when he abandoned you and took to trailing after a giddy young girl who had .plenty of other admirers. That was the explanation of her lectures and Bniffs. She had been jealous all the time! i “Somehow, I felt sorry for Mlm Park!”—Chicago DaJJy New.
