"What 1 want In a wife Is umlubll
It.v. I dou't care how many other good
traits she has. II she hasn't that I
dou't want her."
"How arc you going to find out
about a woman's disposition beforo
marriage?"
"Take her uuawares and test her."
"That rciuiuds me of a story." re
joined the other, and, lighting a cigar,
he told It:
"One tuorniug a gentleman was sit
ting In a railway car when threo well
dressed young ladles got in and began
to look about them ff> r seats together.
There was oue entirely vacant seat,
the next in front of the gentleman
mentioned. One of the girls, who
seemed to be taking the lead, stopped
before these scats, turned over the
back of the forward oue and looked
bard at the geutleinnu sitting In the
I other, plainly saying by her manner:
'We three girls can have a nice llttlo
party of our own In these seats If you
will take oue with some one else.
Uaven't you the politeness to do so?"
"But the gentleman sat still In hU
seat. Evidently there was no polite
ness In him. Tho leader of the trio
took the seat next the window, facing
the Impolite mau; one of her party sat
beside her, while the third dropped
Into the seal beside the man. They
were evidently chains anil kept up a
clatter with their tongues. Tho man
sat among them like a black crow
among white doves, paying no atten
tion to them nor they to him. He was
young and bore the stamp of a gentle
man. Surely It was surprising that he
should not have given them the whole
of the two seats and chosen another
for himself. Instead he sat stolidly
looking In front of hint, not even
glancing out of the window or reading
a newspaper. The leader of the party
begun to tire up. Sitting facing tho
man, she was subject to Ills constant
gaze. It was. to say the least, annoy
J"K
" This Is lutoteraMtV she said, fau
uliix herself angrily. 'Did any ono
ever see such rudeness!'
?' 'Gently, Alice,' said the plrl beside
the srnrer in a cautioning tone.
"?If you think -yon can stand It,
Ret, you change seals with me.'
" "I'm willing, ' Bet replied softly.
" 'Vou shall do no such thing. You
haven't tliu spunk of a kitten. 1 shall
stay right here, and If he doesn't stop
It I'll try to tiud a way to make him.'
"The man paid uo more attention to
the words than if they Imd not been
spoken. If he had occasionally turned
his eyes upon tJie other girl facing him
or glanced at the one beside hlui his
action wouid not have been so no
ticeable. Bur. no; he had toed his
gaze on Alice and ignored the others.
" "I can't endure It any longer,
Maine,' she said. 'I uiust keep my
eyes fixed on you or I shall do some
thing terrible.'
"'Why not apply to the conductor;'
suggested .Ma me.
"i will Just as soon. as he comes
along.'
"But the conductor did not coine
along, and Alice's position was not:
comfortable. She turned again toward
the man. lie was still staring at her.
She resolved to tr\ the effect of re
turnlug his insolence In kind. Fixing
her eyes upon him, s?he stared at him
for a full minute. Making 110 impres
sion whatever, her temper broke away
completely, doping her fan tightly
in her tist. she drew it back and land
ed it vigorously ou the mail's cheek.
"'There!' she exclaimed. 'I'crhaps
it will teach jX>u not to stare a lady
to death.'
"The man brought his hand to tho
hurt, half rose and iu a gentle toIco
full of sorrow said:
" 'There is some mistake. You do
not understand. I am blind.'
"'Oh. Alice" moaned Bet. 'What
have you done?'
"'Why didn't you tell me?' said
Alice to the man.
" 'You have saifl nothing to make mo
understand that I was offending you,
though now some of your remarks aro
intelligible to tue.'
" 'People Iu such condition,' said
Mame coldly, 'shouldn't travel alone.'
"'Girls,' exclaimed Bet, 'neither of
you seems to appreciate tlmt it is you
and not tills poor man who is to
blauie.'
" 'Xo one la to blame, Jadies,' said
the man. it Is simply mv misfortune.'
"The train slowed up f<jr a station.
The man arose and. feeling his way
with a walking stick, started to leave
the train. The glii called Bet took his
arm and saw hku to tile platform."
"I see tl j pith of your yarn," re
marked the listener. "Your man nnd
Bet been 1110 lovers, were married, and
she mltiistured all her life to a blind
man. Very touching, but somewhat
hackneyed."
"N'olhing of the sort. The fellow
wasn't blind at all. It was a put up
Job on his part. lie wanted a wife.
Just as you do, who was amiable. He
found her in the girl who befriended
htm, but itcstead of hunting her up and
marrying lier what do you supposo he
did? Why, he limited up the girl who
struck him ami married her."
"For heaven's sake! What did ho do
that for?"
"Who kuow?? She was homely, while
Bet was pretty. She had no money and
was not remarkably interesting. In
such affairs uo one knows what either
sex will do."
"And how did the marrlago turn
out?"
"She got him under and kept him
there."
"1 reckon." said the other thought- '
fully? "I reckon 1 won't m?rry." 1

| Bhe Cuie Mr. Davis |
OOOCXX-XJOOOOOOCOCXXJOOOOOOOO
[Copyright. 190S, by T. C. MoClure.]
| Tbe cute Mr. Davis figured out that
to get safely away with a fortune be
longing to some one else be must make
himself all over, lie must wipe him
self out and create a new character.
It was a matter requiring a good deal
of consideration. One slip in the pro
gramme and the whole machinery
would be thrown out of gear. When
taking his position f.n had u tine mus
tache and a pair of whiskers. lie cul
tivated them and let them grow at
length. He had prominent cars, and
he mude them more prominent by
combing his hair in a new way. His
i speech was naturally brisk and con
tained a slight lisp. He cultivated the
briskness and the lisp. He had bushy
eyebrows that met In the middle. He
called special attention to them as a
heritage from a strong race.
In the two years and a half that the
cute Mr. Davis was getting ready for
his grand coup he learned to speak
the Herman language of a professor.
He gave a wrong uame, lied about his
occupation and let It bo understood
that ho was going to Germany as
ngent for an American * machinery
house. He managed In one way and
another to become better acquainted
with the country for tlfty miles around
than un.v drover or peddler. Through
a second party he bought a log bouso
aud a few acres of land In a poor
farming district where settlers wero
far between and let It be understood
that a German professor was to oc
cupy It In tlmo to make experiments
In chemistry of the soils and In geol
ogy. In his own room ho donned cer
tain gunncnts and posed before his
mirror. His brisk speech In English
became a sort of drawl In German.
In place of his perfect gait he culti
vated a slight limp. He learned some
thing of the rudiments of chemistry
and geology. He knew what chem
icals to buy to stain his face and hands
and give him a swarthy look. Ha
knew what change would come about
when his whiskers and mustache dls
Mr. Davis would have to ride tlftj
miles to Ills retreat when his coup
came <>rr. He could Ko by any one of a
dozen trains, but lie shook his head,
i the event was ready he had
bought a horse and buggy and knew
everv foot of the road. He had hired
a room under another name In a differ
ent part of the city, and what he need
ed for the metamorphosis was there
days In advance of the event,
programme was gone over again an
again. There was no flow In It. 1
cute Mr. Davis would disappear off
the face of tho earth souie day, anU
how the smart detectives were to con
nect I'rofossov Schmidt with the lato
cashier was more than he could gl\e
them credit for. lie tried hard enough,
because that was his destruction or
salvation, but he had to pronounce his
programme simply perfection.
The great day came at last, lhu
cashier went to the bank with the lar
gest deposit for years- that is a coupe
Sl-t him down at the bank, but : ten
minutes later he was out on the walk
and hurrying away. He reached his
rooms, changed Into his disguise and
then shaved himself. Then bis eye
brows were thinned out, his hair couib
ed according to programme, and the
cute Mr. Davis drew a long breath and
said to himself that he delled all the
detectives on earth to ldeutlfj him.
The rest was dead easy. A German
who spoke broken English dro\o out of
,own behind a gentlo horse, and no
one gave him any attention or cared
whither he went. At the country Inns
where he put up no one had any curl
osltv about him. When he reached his
house he found that his nearest neigh
bor was two miles dlstaut and a Ru.
slau Jew at that. *
The cute Mr. Davis had figured that
his dropping out of sight would crea*
? sensation. He was right. For the
first tweuty-four hours It was thought
he mlglit be the victim of foul play.
Then the bonding company began to
hustle for other clews. The "S"1"
police were called In. and the reward
offered brought scores of private de
tectives Into the game, inside of three
davs everybody had settled down to
the belief that It was a caso of skip,
and all work being done was bascdon
that theory. Never was there a hotkr
hunt ror an embezzler. If Mr. Davis
had committed murder the chase w ould
not have been half as vigorous. W 1th
, a week the whole United States was
on the watch for him. and copes . of
that photograph v. III. the whiskers
wore Hying about like leaves In u g.ile.
At the end of a month the army of de
rives had ?o turn In their r*por*
with the words "No clew attached.
It was believed that the criminal had
escaped to a foreigu country.
The cute Mr. Davis, alias Professor
Schmidt, figured on making use
retreat for a number of months and
then assuming some other guise In
some other part of the countrj. All
went well With him for a number of
weeks, and then one day a rough-head
of a boy who was hunting for a lost
calf approached the house to ask for
information and heard a man singing
a song In good old fashioned Eng
lish He had been told that the occu
pant was a German. He went aw a
and reported his "And, and it >,ot to
the ears of a constable, and from
to the sheriff and the detectives and a
week later the cute Mr. Davis was
