And now we are told that it is manner, COt manners, that count. You may avoid the- Scylla of the wrong fork and steer clear of the Charybdis of the wrong knife, but if you possess not manner it %\ 111 avail you little. Manners may be cultivated. Manner, on the contrary, is inborn. So in order to have manner you must begin with your great-31 andfal.ier. He must be of the knee breeches, powdered wig and buckled st-oe variety. And it is even more important that jour great-grandmother should be irreproach able or rather fashionable. Having se lected, these ancestots, however, your social course is free from obstructions. One of the advantages that lies in the possession of manner is thit it enables you to disregard manners. You may put your elbow on the table with impunity. Your language may be most emphatic. >ci;r laugii may ring loudly in the land. You will not be condemned. Gil the con trary you will be looked upon with envy.' Your imitators will be many.

In Jhe (flobe's Daily Short Jtory jjj jetty's White &ress By JULIA TRUITT BISHOP. Copyright, 1002, by Daily Story Pub. Co. "Well. I declare, Hetty, cried Mrs. Lally, half irritated and half filled with motherly pricle, "no sooner do ye get one thing than you're boun' to have an other right on the heels of it. Here you've got a white dress, an' a body'd think ye'd be satisfied; an' now you're all up in arms to go to the city. What in creation you want to visit Elsy Spriggs lor I can't see—you know you never could abide her." Mrs. Ldliy was making a great deal of clattering among the "milk things," for it was morning, and cleaning-up tune. She had no leisure to watch Hetty flush ing and paling o ver the glory of trying on the white dr<^ss. That dress had been the subject of family councils, and bat tles royal had been fought over it. All summer long Hetty had begged for it. She knew or' a photograph of a giirf in a white dress, a filmy white dress that made her lock as though her head and shoulders were rising from a snowy cloud. If she could only look like that once, what wonderful things might not happen—what new lands might not open —whr.t dreams might not come true! "It's the first time I've ever looked like city folks," she said; "an' now I want to go. Do let me go, mother just a littie while —I'll work hard when I ccme back, an 1 not complain 'of any thing." In her inmost soul Mrs. Lally had al ready decided to let her go, but she clat tered the milk things aim grumbled fret fully. "That's jest the way," she declared. "Jest as soon as you get a new thing you want to go an' rag it out, wearin it e\erywhere you go. I'll let ye know w-e didn't do mat when I was a girl. It wasn't often we got anything hnc:, an' when we aid we knew cnougn to take keer of it. Mrs. Lally was off over familiar ground, just as Hetty was off into the land of dreams, her face flushing and her eyes sparkling at the tnings .sue saw taere. V\ hen she came back, after awhile, her motner was telling her that she s'poscd she might as well go, for fthe wasn't uom' any good aboat the place any;,ow, and nadn t uu summer. The letter to Kisy Spriggs told ncr ti-at Hetty wonia go uiai uay wttK, lor »l was deemed auvisaDie to give her plenty of time to receive me letter. Tins maue the triD reasonaoly tale, the only fear bting that Jttlsy might be away from home, and so miss tne letter, or me might have lett the city allogetner since they last heard from ncr, or sne mignt, be sick in bed, and so coalun t meet Hetty at the station, or she might have a houseful or company aireauy. But while Mrs. Lady reviewed all these con tirgencies many times a day, Hetty went afceut the house in silent bliss taat ig nored £lsy Spriggs. Along with the let ter to that severe lady sne had slipped a timid note into the postottice up at the store. It said: "1 am going on a visit to Miss Klsy Spriggs,' ana save the street and number, iviagnolia street —she was glad that Klsy liveu on a street with a pretty name. Was it very far Item Caronuek-t street to Magnolia street? Mrs. Lally turned a battered old trunk upside down to shake out tne ■'trash" that time and the mice nau Mattered there. "You wouldn't need to take a trunk il it wasn't for this white dress," she grum bled. "But if ye put it into a valise you'll get it all crumpled so's it won't oe lit to wear. You can wear that brown check gingham goin' an' comin—an' mind ye, if ye wear that white dress out street car ridin' or anywheres, don't ye lean back against the back o' the seat. The time Marianny Hall went to town and spoi.ej a bran new lawn dress that way. id let ye take my green b'rege veil to spread on the backs o' the seats, but like as not you'd go off an' leave It there, an' I'd never hear from it again." Marianny Hall's mother from over the hill came in to talk over the trip. ''I didn't know as you was goin' to git a new hat, Hetty," she said from the warm heart of friendliness; "so 1 thought I'd untrim mine an' let ye have some o' the ribbin till ye come back, its a pink, an' the sun's faded it some, but it'll look mighty pretty an' fresh along with them red poppies." "Well, now, if that don't fix things!" cried Mrs. Lally with delight. "I been a worryin' about Hetty's hat, ft looked so bare with jest them three poppies on one side. It does well enough with the frocks she's had, but she wants some thin* nicer along witii that white Ures^. ' both lines she has met with pronounced success. Two young women of Nebraska, name ly, the Misses Scott and Fish, a few years ago forsook teaching for farming, and their venture has proved so succes^ iul that their farm is considered one of Find the two pet rabbits. Solution for Yesterday's Puzzle—One over his heart; the other under the skirj She set to work adorning the hat after her kind. Hetty did not cafe. Her thoughts and dreams were far awaj. With so many chances against her, it seems marvelous that nothing intervened - that the train really came at the appoint ed time, and received her, paipitaiin.^, in to its embrace—that her ticket was Ot the righc knd, after all—that the engine did not dash through bridges or tumble down hills and wreck the train. The con ductor, going thdough with stolid lace, doubtless was dimly conscious of a plain little figure in a brown checked gingham. How was he to know that along with her •went a trail of such rosy dreams ;»s no one dreams now any more, because fairy land has vanished and the Arabian ,\'igms are fled? Nay—crowning wonder of all, there was Miss Elsy at the station with a sour sn.ile on her wrinkled lace. Circumst in, 1 g had made that smile for Miss fciisy, for with little strength and less skill sne "sewed out," which tends to the starving of soul and body. "You got here, did you?" was Miss Elsy's greeting; and she led her guest away toward Magnolia street, which had beea so long a street of dreams. What matter for»the poor little houses, crusneu up, one against anotner, uanK alleys here and tuere between them? What matter for the no-yard in front ana the worse than no-yard in the rear? What matter for the Italian fruit stanu at tne corner, where the Hies swarmed over the lruit; or for the cobbler's sh across the street, wnere the crippled coo bler starved among the wrecks of shoes . he tried to menu. No matter for any thing. This was the city, wnere one migut look out of tne window at any time and see someone that one knew. This was the city, where one might be sitting in the bare little front room, dressed ail in white, and someone would knock so gay ly at the door and come in, and stand there amazed to see that the little coun try girl looked as though sne hau spent all her life on Magnolia street. "I'd rather not go out—someone might come," sne said in the morning. '"Nobady comes in the mornin's," Miss Elsy repiieu; so they went out and rode on the street cars, and Hetty watched from the windows with eyes that missed no iacc in an tne passing throngs. "11 you wear that dress 'roun' the house all the time you won't have nothln' lit to wear when you go out," saijt Miss Eisy warningly. Ho Hetty meekly wore a darker dress, but kept the white one spread out on her bed, ready to put on at a moment's notice. When the bell rang she flew to the dress—she haa it in her hands—what was that? Only a negro with vegetables? Merely an old woman with pralines? Simply two sisters, beg ging tor St. Alphonsus' asylum? "You couldn't go about here any time without meetin' people you knew, could you?" asked Hetty. Her eyes were be ginning to take a tired look. "La me!" said Miss Elsy. "I can go many a day without seem' anybody i know. I can see lots I don't want to know." Miss Elsy laughed grimly. It was not often that life had any kind of jest for Miss Elsy. The light at the corner flared up, and the children poured out of all the dank alley ways and made uproar along the sidewalks. "People come later In the city to visit than they do in the country, don't they?" asked Hetty. "Yes." said Miss Elsy absently; and Hetty could not be prevailed on to go to bed, but sat at the window, looking out into the street—sat there till the chil dren had grown, tired and the alleyways had swallowed them up again. "I've got a day's sewing to do," said Miss Elsy. putting on the little black hat with the draggled nlume that lay for own against th« brim. No, Hetty would not be lonesome —not at all. She would enjoy the rest. And Miss Elsy went away. Some protecting Providence went with the girl in the white dress that day she had put it on with such pains!—for among all the multitude of cars she found the right one, and the right one among all the mifltitude of buildings. Frightened and trembling as she was, she inquired the way resolutely, of con ductors, of men on the street, of busy men In stores, who came out to the sidewalk to show her where to go. Even when she had entered the hallway of the great building and stood there, half-fajnting before the four elevifc rs that shot np and down without a mo ment's pause, the same Providence reached out a protecting- hand. "Whom do you want to see?" a<ked a kind old greybeard, bending over her as strong men do over children and ■weak things. "Marriner?— Frank Marri ner? I'll show you the way." It was over—she was there—in the door of his office. She leaned ag.un^t the door, holding her heart still with both hands and looking in. The lady in black silk, the lady with the best in that region. No men are em ployed on this ranch, which comprises about 80 acres.
