S NANCY'S 1
{ PROXY.
) By RPES W. SARGENT. i
) Copyrighted 19wi, by Associate J X
1 Literary Hrefs. \"
"Saucy, It's ttwfuL-to go to school."
Nancy IXurt nmii nodded a solemn as
sent to (he statement, for she always
agreed with what Bobby Seaton said.
In this Instance her own views were
reflected, albeit those vltfws were
somewhat prejudiced at the moment
by the fact that she had been kept In
after school, and Bobby had had to sit
on tho curb' and wait for her. He had
done his best, two, to be kept In, and
so share her punishment.
"I'll be glad when I'm married and
don't have to go to school," -he con
tiuued solemnly. "Married people
don't have to go to school."
"Mr. S'-arrltt did," reminded Nancy.
"He was a minister," explained Bob
by, as though that made a difference.
"Besides he was married when he was
In college. College is different from a
school."
Nancy nodded wisely. She could not
grasp any distinction, buf since Bobby
said so, there must be n difference.
"School's horrid," she complained.
"I Just fired one teenty little spit ball,
and Miss Magnus made me Stay In."
"She's got to stay to correct the ex
ercises," explained Bobby, "and she's
'frit Id to stay alone. That's why she
always makes some one stay In."
"'Taln't fair," Insisted Nancy, "and
we were going after nuts too."
"I tell you what," exclaimed Bobby.
"Let's get married, and then she can't I
make us go to school."
"Right now?" demanded Nancy, with .
a glance at her soiled dress.
"That little ink stain don't matter,"
assured Bobby. "We'll go to Mr. Scar
rift He (fot married when he was In
school, so he'll understand."
"But he went to school after he got
married," reminded Nancy.
"That's because he wanted to," ex
plained Bobby. "If lie didn't want to
go he didn't have to. We won't want
to go."
He start m1 to Ills foot, n.W Xanrv
obediently follows. Had Bobbv pro
l>oswI n siroii to iho north pole she
would have followed with the same
content. for ?ns not Rnbby wise with
the wisdom *t>f full eight years, while
*ho boasted ;i srjinr six?
It was a short walk to the minister's
home, and presently Bobby. I, rave but
.1 trifle weak In the knees and wdth a
higher color his faee. was explain
Ing lo the minister his desire to wed.
I he Iter. Kcarrltt, prate and studi
??us was shocked at the suggestion
and with gentle reproof nt tlielr sncri
<?ge turned them from his study. Tho
reproof was lost on a determined uilnd.
and when the door had closed Bobbv
shook his tiny list In t lie air.
"Just 'cause he's mnrrled he don't
care bout no one else." he said vin
dictlvely. "He's on,y Murr,er
iu town. Huh."*
There was u world of scoru iu the
exclamation, and Hobby's wrath was
not He bad not understood what the
minister was saying, but he had gath
ered that he was being scolded for
even thinking of marriage, and this
under the very eyes of his beloved.
I here were three other ministers in
town, but none of them was at home
and Bobby turned toward the tired
Nancy.
"it's no use," he said, with a tighten
ing of the quivering Hp. "We've got to
go to Riverside."
Nancy blinked back the tears and
put her hand In his.
"It's dreadful hard getting married "
f,f n d;.."Do M" "?ve trouble
like lb In?"
"W hen they elope." explained Bobby
calmly. "You don't have time' to fix It
with the minister."
?I don't think that Moping'* much
run." ventured Nancy, but Bobby's
look silenced her. Together they
trudged aloug Iu silence until the
r'T passed and the road to
Kheislde Iny bare and lonelv before
them.
The shadows were closing Iu, and
there were clumps of trees that rnude
patches of dark, Just the sort that
bears love to hide In.
Kor the benefit of his lady Bobbv
Kept up u brave front, but his clasp on
the tired, dirty little hand that lay
within his own tightened when the
dark places cauie, aud the sturdy lit
He legs were urged to greater speed
until the danger point was passed.
1 he dark was closing in now, and
Nancys plump little legs were uot as
strong as Bobby's, and, though she
bravely sought to hold the pace, she
lagged behind.
At lust. In spite of her fortitude, she
had to give in and sank with a little
sob on the grass beside the roadway.
"I Just can't go any more, Bobbv,"
she wailed. "It seems like we 'most
walked louud the earth."
'Its only a little way now," urged
Hobby, -an' maybe the minister will
ask us to sfav for supper."
The mention of food was the lifst
>:,raw. Fatigue had prevented tho
t bought or huuger. but uow Naucy
knew that she was famished
A school lunch Is not calculated to
last until 7 o'clock, und Nancy remem
bered that there was to be Jellv cake
for supper.
At the sound of the sobs that shqyk
her tiny frame Bobby- knelt beside her
and sought to check tho flow of
tears, but not until she had cried her
self to sleep on Bobby's shoulder did
silence come.
Bobby himself felt very much like
crying, but that would never do, and
he held back the tears while he stared
I >ra \ ely Into the dark, his arm protect
ingly about the sleeping Nancy.
h IC 8e^?U 1? Passed as he
nat tbero In the silence and the dark.
No wagons came along, ttytugh once
un automobile shot p?#t at a speed
that rendered hi* cry unavailing.
| The passing of the oar ouly nerved
to make the loneliness, the more pro
nounced, and when two more great
yellow eyes shone far down the road
; Bobby gently lowered the golden head
| from his shoulder -to the grassy bank
jaud sprang to his feet. Perhaps If he
waved bis arms they would see and
stop.
Nearer and nearer came the lights,
and he stood directly In the yellow
patch the lamps made in the white
dust of the road. To his great relief
the car slowed down, and from be
hind the curtain of light tbut half
blinded the tired eyes came the wel
come sound of a familiar voice. Bobby
sprang forward to throw himself into
the strong arms of his big brotfler.
"You're u tine pair of runaways,"
cried Howard. "We have been search
ing the roads for nearly two hours."
"Is Nancy with you?" demanded an
auxlous voice from the cor, and Bobby
knew that Nancy's sister was there
too.
She gave a little cry when Howard
brought the girl to her and covered
the tear stained face with kisses
Howard made up a bed In the tonneau
for the children and ran on to where
the road permitted a turn toward
home. Bobby was not sleepy now,
and he stood leaning over the back of
the front seat watching the car eat
up the road.
"We was eloping lovely," he said
plaintively, "until Nancy got tired.
Now I s'pose this spoils It all."
"I guess it does, old man," was the
laughing comment. "Suppose that you
give me your proxy."
"What's proxy?" demanded Bobby
curiously.
"It's this way," explained Howard
as he let the car slow dowu. "If you
want to do something! but don't have
time or for some other reason you
cau't, you appoiut a proxy to act for
you I appreciate highly your endeavors
to unite the Haitman and Seaton fam
ilies. but, since your scholastic duties
prevent the consummation of your
laudable Intentions, 1 propose that you
constitute me your proxy lu the prem
iss. 1 might add that In consideration
of this demonstration, of your confi
dence lu my integrity I am prepared
to reciprocate with the donation of
one bright silver half d'-llnr In the coin
of the realm."
Bobby regarded Ids brother suspi
ciously. Up never could toll just what
Howard wa* up to when he used the
big words, but Hie proffer of a half
dollar was a business proposition, ao<1
he stretched out Ids baud.
The exchange was made and How
ard turned to the girl.
"Etta," he said gently, "It would be
a shame to frustrate the plans of these
two Innocents. Don't you think, dear,
that you might act for Nancy and
make this marriage by proxy an as
sured fact?"
For a moment (be girl hesitated,
then she half turned hi the seat. ?
"It would be a shame? to spoil their
plans," she said gently. "I thlnk?I
should like to act as Nancy's proxy,
dear."
A Natural Result.
Wlllowby had a good shoemaker,
Hiram Pool by name. Nobody knew
the trade of making, mending and
tapping, resoling and patching shoes
better than he. His conversation took
on local color from his shop, no matter
what the subject ndgbt be. One even
ing an astronomer, sojourning in Wll
lowby, gave a "talk" at the town hall,
and Hiram went to hear him.
"What did you make Of all he said
about the cause o' wet weather when
he'd spoken so light of the moon hav
ing all to do with It?" somebody asked
Hiram the next day.
Mr. Tool held up the boot he was
mending aud squinted at the sole of It.
"His talk needed waxing," said tho
shoemaker dryly when his Inspection
of the boot was finished. "But what I
made out of It was that he considered
tho wet weather usu'lly comes when
the clouds are so old and rotten they
won't hold the patches."? Youth's Com
panion.
Encouraged to Hope.
When the Empress Frederick, eldest
daughter of Queen Victoria, was a lit
tle girl, her disposition, to the great
grief of the queen, was haughty and
arrogant. Once, when about to embark
on the royal yacht 'Victoria and Albert,
she was lifted across to the deck of the
boat by one of the sailors, who, <u he
was putting her down gently, said,
"There you are, my little lady."
"1 am not a 'little lady;' I am a
princess!" was the prompt aud indlg
nnnt reply. The queen, who had over
heard tho conversation, detained the
man with a gesture und. turning to her
spoiled little daughter, said:
"Tell the kind sailor that you aro
much Indebted to him for his civility
and that, although you are not a 'little
lady' yet, you contldently hope to merit '
the title before long."
An Air With Real Air.
During one of the political tours of
Mr. Cleveland, In which he was accom
panied by Secretary Olney, he arrived
during a severe storm at a town in
which lie was to speak. As he en
tered the carriage with his friends and
was driven from tho station the rain
changed to hall, and Immense stones
battered and rattled against the ve
hicle. A brass band, rather demoraliz
ed by the storm, stuck bravely to its
post and played,
"That Is the most realistic music X
have ever heard," remarked the presi
dent.
"What are they playing?" asked the
secretary of state. ?
"'Hall to the Chief,' with real halll" 1
rejoined Mr. Cleveland.
