"Hasn't he nice blue eyes?" said Miss
Dressel.
"Horrors, child! Don't you say such
things out loudl What tf ho should
understand English 7"
"Impossible. Aunt Ellen. German
blondness. reading a German paper,
traveling In n German train with bag
gage marked 'A. von 8.. Bremen.'
"Virginia! What does possess you?
I never heard you talk so."
Miss Dressel laughed a hearty Amer
ican laugh. "I am so glad to shake
the dust of Europe off my feet that I
can't keep It In. I'm so glad we're
headed for Hamburg, the Kaiser NVIl
helm der Grosse. America and Wash
ington that? that? well, honestly 1
should like to kick the epaulets off the
guard's gorgeous blue and gold uni
form. Don't faint, Annt Ellen. I'll
?top and not say another word for an
hour."
For an hour and five minutes Miss
Dressel sat silent, ostensibly watching
the valleys, the German gables, the
green of meadows and forests, as they
swept by. For an hour and five min
utes their young German fellow travel
er read his German paper, and for an
hour and five minutes Miss Ellen Van
strum enjoyed perfect peace of mind.
Then Miss Dressel conghed. and Miss
Vanstrum Inwardly caught her breath.
"Aunt Ellen," said Miss Dressel, la
slly waving her hand toward the scen
ery as If she were discussing It? "Aunt
Ellen, do you know that young man
has a dreadfully nice face, even If he
Is a German. Oh. don't look shocked.
Just gaze out the window as If I were
talking about the scenery, and he will
never know the difference. I've been
looking at him off and on for the last
hour. Just see what a nice firm mouth
he has. He's so well groomed too.
Just look at his Anger nails. Oh. Aunt
Ellen, I wish you wouldn't gasp so. I
like his looks better thnn any forelsmer
I have seen In the five .tears we have
spent In Europe. Really. I shouldn't
mind being married If I could get such
a handsome, well groomed man as
be Is."
"Virginia, oh. Virginia !" groaned
Mrs. Vanstrum. "It's? It's Indecent to
talk about a man like that when he
can't understand."
"Don't Jiggle your pompadour crook
ed, Aunt Ellen," said Miss Dressel
calmly. "Don't worry. If he under'
stood English he would have betrayed
himself long ago. Fie might be a chunk
of pink and white and yellow tnffy for
all he understands of the English lan
guage. Thank goodness. Aunt Ellen,
here we are almost at Hamburg. Here,
let me tie your veil. You are getting
It on crooked. No, let me carry the
suit case. It's a young house. Now
for my last fee ? almost? on foreign
?oil."
The train bad hardly come to a long
screeching stop In tbc great station at
Hamburg when the door of the car
riage was jerked violently open and a
young man pulled the German out
with a hearty grip, exclaiming In Eng
lish:
"We're In luck. There was a state
room unengaged on the Kaiser Wll
belm, and we can sail four days earlier
than we expected. Good luck, man!
Why don't you say something Instead
of looking at me like a dazed Idiot T"
The German pulled himself together
with a noticeable effort and began to
stammer out something In German,
when the other Interrupted him Impa
tiently.
"Aw. cut that outl You know per
fectly well 1 can't understand a word
of German. Never mind; come along!"
The young German flushed red. and
with one appealing look straight Into
the eyes of the astonished Miss Drcs
sel he picked up his suit case and was
soon lost to view In the hurrying
throng.
Miss Dressel silently picked up her
lnggage, carefully avoiding ber aunt's
eye, and for a minute after leaving
the carriage she looked helplessly about
her. Then the label "Berlin" on a
carriage caught her eye, and without
a word to ber puzzled relative she took
her by the arm, raced ber across the
station and pushed her In. stumbling In
herself. Just as the guard put his band
on the door to close It
"Why ? what ? where"? said Miss
Vanstrum.
"I don't know." said her niece des
perately, "but most anywhere out of
Hamburg."
"But our steamerl" gasped Miss Van
strum.
"What's losing a steamer, Aunt El
len, compared with my peace of mind?
I'd no more sail on the Kaiser Wllbelni
now than I'd fly. Aunt Ellen, you're a
Jewel not to say. 'I told you so,' nor
even to look It"
"You haven't given me time," laugh
ed Miss Vanstrum, "but I must say 1
certainly think It There, I'm glad
we're off at last I don't think I my
self care to come face to face with that
young fellow again."

It was the evening of the last inn
slcale of the season at the White
House, and an unwonted air of antici
pation pervaded the brilliant througas
It gathered In the great east room.
"They say she has one of the flneet
voices ever heard off the stage," said
the wife of a South American dlplo
mat "Sat the family U on* of til*
kind they call here 'P. P. V." tod will
not let her accept any of the often rtio
has had for gi*atid opera. This la her
only appearance In public alnce ahe re
turned from Europe. There's Anton
von Stoach Did yon eve* eve any one
no eager to go everywhere a* that man
la? He's altnply crary about meetlbg
Americans."
"American women stranger*, yoo
should any," laughed a man wearing
the cross of th? Legion of Honor "Von
can get Tony von Stoach to go any
where Just by hinting that some new
girls' will be there."
"They say nt the German legation
that by actaal count Tony von 8te* h
has met 800 "new girls' since the sen
son opened. And he's still going."
A* the rlpplo of merriment greeting
this expression of the well known fol
ble of the |Mipnlar Anton von Ktoach
died away some one said: "HtTwh: The
program Iteglns."
For some time Anton vimi Sto?-h
watched the artists come ami go. hi*
face wearing an unwonted look of wen
rlness and discouragement. For months
he had sought diligently for the I wo
American woaen who called Wasltlne
ton their home, who had l>eon his fel
low travelers from Rerlin to Hamburg
on that fateful August day. More than
once he had followed a lithe, active
girl with glinting chestnut hair, only to
tlnd It was a (tranger Instead of "Vlr
glnln of Washington," as he had come
to call her. Dny after day, night after
night, he had followed the whirl of the
social wheel, bnt never had he found a
clew to their identity. He had apent
hours poring over the etty directory,
but never a young Virginia nor an el
derly Ellen proved to be the first I wear
ers of the naiuoa he had met so oddly.
Aa a ripple of enthusiastic applause
greeted the appearance of the star of
the evening Anton von Stosch raised
his eyes and tfcen grew rigid as he saw
"Virginia of Washington" In the flesh,
smiling acknowledgment to the enthu
siasm. One long look to assure himself
It waa really ahe, and Anton von
8tosch sat baclt In his chair with fbld
ed arms and a look of content npon hla
face aoch as It had not worn In all the
months alnce he had arrived at the
German legation. No sooner waa the
program ended than he made his way
to the blue tx?m where Mlsa Dreasel
was holding court and without delay
?ought an introduction.
"Oh!" said Miss Dressel. her hand
poised halfway toward hla. "Why? oh.
I'm glad to meet you, I'm sure," ahe
ended lamely ?s she saw her exclaina
tlon and gesture had attracted atten j
tlon. Anton ven Stoach looked straight I
into her eyes a:t he took her hand.
"I am glad lo meet yoo? again," be
aald quietly. "I have hunted thla town
over to find you. May I call tomor
row T"
"j_I_oh, I really don't know," aald
Miss Dressel. Then she began to laogh
almost hysterically. "It's all too absurd
? and I can't talk about it now ? and
please don't get offended, but 1 was ao
surprised and"?
?Til wait," iiald Anton voti 8tosch.
quietly falling back. "It la quite
enongh to know that I hav* found you
at last."
Though he afioke no more to her that
evening. Miss ?ressel waa well aware
that he followed her from group to
group and from room to room, as If
fearful of loslrg sight of her. Aa the
door of her carriage was snapped shut
his face appeared In the opening, and
he said quietly, but firmly:
"I shall do myself the honor to call
upon you tomorrow afternoon."
Had Anton von Stoach been lesa
eager or determined be would have
waited until the conventional hour of
calling and poiislbly have mlsaed Miss

Trade At Home
IT is a hard thing to convince tome people, who have acquired the
mail order habit, that it is to their advantage to trade at home. The
green fields far away appeal to them, so they send their money out of
town for something that is no better than can be found on the local
merchant's shelves. The money is thus gone where they, nor any one
of the community, will ever see it again, and where it can do nobody
good but the person who has it and he is hundreds or thousands of
miles away.
THE MAIL ORDER PEOPLE
are not the only offenders who are blind to the interests of the commu
nity. The merchants are just as bad. Many of them send away for
their printing, while at the same time argue agains?mail order butineM
