I never did think much of xlrle
Barer! Either they are lanky aad
leggy things, and think they can play
games Just as wall aa boys, or else
they are flirty and silly, and thin one
ought to be always making love to
them.
Love. Indeed! Buck rot! Well. I
don't mind telling you that last terta,
whan I caucht Stewart Mills writing a
lore-letter to hie Coualn Grace, I gave

allowed him to Join war fraternity,
our grand, mysterious society that
soma ohapa would giro their ears to be
allowed to Join, only we don't allow It
to become too cheap the "Brotner
hood of the Oory Hand" and one of
the rowa we have to take Is not to let
ourselves be mixed up la any aoa
aenae with women. We are all to be
either detectives, or pirates, or disco,
erers of unknown countries when we
grow up, and In any of those nowe

girls on principle and I explained to
hsr nn or two thlnzs about sports
that she had got a little muddled with,
and she tried her very best to unaer
stand, and wasn't really so stupid, for
a girl.
So I really liked to talk to her. aad
you may Imagine how disgusted I was
when I came upon her one evening In
the garden with that solemn aaa,
Leonard Ashwell. and 1 do believe he
was talking poetry about the moon
light! As I came near, I aaw Marjorte's
Annt Henrietta comlna down from the
house to look for her. Marjorle Versc
hoyle called out to me quite eageny
tn ask what score the football team
had made. No doubt she was tired to
death of Shelley and the moonllght,ana
glad to hare a little sensible conversa
tion for a change.
"Oh! It's Tommy Braddon." aald
Aunt Henrietta. (Meanwhile Ashwell
had sneaked off down the snruunery.j
"I am so short-sighted, but L reauy
thought"
"Mr. Braddon Is giving me a moat
Interesting account ot the game," said
Marjorle.
w had oulte a good talk; she
seemed to want to get the taste of
Aahwell'a poetry and moonlight out of
her mouth; but half an hour after, when
I strolled down the garden to have
a surreptitious cigarette, blessed If

Then that Ashwell began trying to
make friends with me asked me into
hia room to hare a quiet smoke, ana
so on. I suppose he saw that Mlas
Verschoyle thought no end or me, ana
n he wanted to get on my right side.
But I'm not ao easily tooled.
Miss Verschoyle was quite Inter
ested to hear that I had been In his
rooms, and asked me heaps of ques
tions about the furniture and orna
ments, and especially about the photo
vrafiha. "Was there one of Miss DIsartr aha
naked. Miss Dlsart was a girl who was
.tavin at our home, too a handsome
girl but not my style, who was malt-
ina- a dead aet at Leonard Ainweii.

of Mlaa Dlsart. but there was a nor

asked.

Mlas Verschoyle blushed. Fancy

"Look here." aald ' Marjorle confi

there, aad Jolly well serve blm right! .
But we had hardly got to the lake

ter Leonard Ashwell's arms were
round her, and she had her head on
his aboulder.
As you may Imagine, I was speech-
with dlsxust. And then ne
actually had the audacity to kiss her
before -me and to say: "Congratulate
i. Tommy. You ve been our oesi
friend all through."
Aa If I wanted to be a friend to a
pair of spoony lunatics!
And the actress? Well. It turned
oat to be a photograph of Marjorle
herself In fancy dress, and flattered
out of all recognition.
And if a airl who once seemed to
have some glimmerings of sense In
her can make such a fool ot herself as
that, can you wonder that 1 think less
of the sex than ever?
Absentmlnded Man.
"I guess I had the most absentmlnd
ed man in the world In my chair this
morning." said a Seventeenth street
barber yesterday. "He came In and
aat down near the door to wait his
turn. I jelled 'next' at him two or
three times when my chair was va

hoar me. Finally 1 .touched him on
the shoulder and told him I was ready
for him.

asked.
" 'Why, get In the chair If you want
anything.' I replied. 'This Is a barber
shop.'
'Oh, yes.' he said, and then he got
Into' the chair. He leaned back ao I
let the chair down and shaved him. He
didn't have a word to aay. When I
finished him up be got out of the chair
and took the check over to the cashier.
He paid and started out. When halt

High Time for Compromise.
In Mcintosh county, Georgia, there
... . lawaiiit r lut-i cow. The
cow was dead, but the lawsuit went
on.
It was decided by the Jtuuoe or me
peace, appealed, remanded, decided
again, and once more appealed and
remanded. This went on until the
case came, back to the aqulre for .the
eleventh time. ' -
It was a Jury case, aaa wnen u

lined the attorney by announcing an
Indefinite postponement, saying:
This case has exhausted the
whole Jury venire of the county, and
yoa will nave to wait until the coming
feneration gets old enough for Jury
service."
