"Frank Enders Is a goose? the most

"I've no patience at nil with Frank,"

lie bad n deflnite mental Image of
her. She must be slim and young,
wltb eyes iuuoccut, yet sjuirkllug, and
with a rosebud mouth; bright, but not
bookish; well bred, of course; gracious,
yet with dashes of temper; reverent,
gay, even almost frivolous, she would

He belle\ed It tlrmly; hence there
was no thought of danger, of anything.
Indeed, but a new experience, when
he found himself upon Higlitowu's
main street very early In the morning
confronted with a tall womau, slight
and tired looklug, who held up her
hand lu urrest, asklug Imperatively.
"Will you take a lone woman stranded
and stranger somewhere? anywhere?
so she can get something to eat?"
"Certainly," he said, with a reassur
ing smile. "IIow lucky that I came
out thus l>efore breakfast! If you
don't nUinl, I'll take you home with
me. My nnnt will make you very
welcome, and somehow 1 rather hate
to think of you at our hotel. It's a
disgrace to Hlghtown, but we dare not
have It bettor. If it were better the
summer boarder would desccnd on

"Ob: Is it possible any place has es
caped?" the stranger Interrupted. En
ders smiled again. She had a delicious
voice? soft, clear, vibrant, with the
least possible drawl. She was dressed
very quietly, but very well? even bis
masculine Ignorance was aware of the
fact.
"l'ou are doing a dangerous thing,"
she ran on, "If you speak tme. High
town may never get rid of me. I'm
so sick and tired of boarders and all
their works."
They were approaching his own door.
The stranger somehow sensed the fact.
She shut the laugh from her eyes, the
merry curves from her lips, stood very
straight and held out a card to him,
saylug primly: "I hope that vouches
for me sufficiently. Miss Maxwell Is n
respectable enough person. Your name
Is" ?
"Enders? Frank Endere ? at yout
service," Enders said quickly. She
gave him a quick look. After a sec
otid or two she said softly, the whim
sical smile again wreathing her lips;
"I know a lot about you, Mr. Frank
Enders. My name child, Doris Clare,
makes you out n sort of cross betwixt
a fairy prince and n paladla. For her
sake and because you ask no ques
tlons I'm going to explain. I was on
the express, which does not stop here,
bound for Pallantrae, a place, I take

could not sleep I got up very, very
early to find the train staudlug still,
panting and snorting like mad, a mile
or so from your station. A perfidious

not start for ever so long. Wanting

"Jost as I hud sirolled a little too

my train, but my worldly possessions.

berth. So you mc me abjectly a pau

sions."
"They shall be overtaken. Don't
worry about that. But, tell me, what
did you think, feel, do, when you fonnd
yourself left?" Enders said, looking
straight at h?r.
"Oh, I promptly forgot the landscape
and looked for a mllepost. The first
one I found road "Ellghtown. ?
miles.' Some malefactor had smudged
the figures, but at least there was
promise of fiuding something. It was
not a false promise, you see. I tramp
ed on and found? you."
"I wonder will you think you found
anything worth while?" Enders mur
mured reflectively, as though to him
self. Miss Maxwell laughed. "You
don't know. what case yuu are In, that
is very evident," she said. "1 ha to to
proclaim the fact Imldly, hut I make a
living by writing love stories, and ever

"1 defy you, defy anybody, to make
me a hero of romance," EmSera said,
flushing deeply. Agalu Mlfs Maxwell
laughed: but, after It, she shook her
head, saying, "You truly won't do for

That was the l>eglnuliig of It. The

So it had been the most natural thing

"There's just one way tfi put him out

"Ungrateful! I don't understand."
Enders returned. She looked over his
head, saylug softly: "I was a stranger,

"We two can Ik? left out of the ac

"You see I was right," Doris Max

An Unexpected Reply.
A very demure little Frenchwoman,
who teaches her native tongue in a
well known southern college, learned
recently, under embarrassing circum
stances, that it is not always safe to
accept as a flual standard of correct
English what one may casually hear.
One night at supper the president of
the college announced to the assem
