"Bis price was a little higher than some of the other fellera. bat I like his work." Mr. Tidditt pondered deeply ' until lnner time; then he cornered the cap tain behind the Bangs barn and spoke ' with conTiction. - "Whit. he said, "you're the one re sponsible for the committee's hirin Phoebe Dawes.

" 1 MEN Captain Cy had notified Mrs. Bangs that the perfect boarding boose would shelter htm no longer than the coming week a new problem arose. "Whtt," said Asaph earnestly, yoTr" ve Bartln made the place rise np out of its tomb; yon have so. If s a tniyyfa., pi ell nigh, and I callate It " must have -cost a heap, but you've done It ail but the old folks themselves. Too can't raise them tip, Cy; money wont do that. And yoa cant live In this great house all alone. Who's gola' to cook for yoa and sweep and dust and swab decks and. one thing a'noth er? You'll have to have av housekeep er, as I told you a spell ago. Have yoa done any thlnfcln about that?" And the captain, taking his pipe from his Hps. stared blankly at his friend and answered; "By the big dipper. Ase, I ain't! I remember we did mention it, but I've been so busy gettin this' craft off the ways rthat I forgot-all about it" ln discussion which followed Mr. TiAiitFa reminder was long and seri ous. Asaph and. Bailey Bangs racked theirfbrsins and offered numerous sng SestSooa but the majority of these were not 'favorably received. "There's Matfidy Tripp," said Bailey. "She'd. Uka the Job. I'm sartto. She's a widow, too, and she's bad experi ence fcsepln bouse along of Tobias. htza that ' was her husband. But, if yoa do bixeiber, don't let Ketury know I hinted at tt, 'cause we're goin to lose on boarder when .you quit, and that's too many, 'eocdiu.' to the old Sady-way of tMntirr-." Ton can keep .Matildy, for all me," repBed the' captain decidedly. "Come obiter religion's all right for those that hsjs that kind of appetite, but havin' It passed to me three times a day, 'same as I've had It at your house, is enough; I dont hanker to have it warmed over between meals. If I ship ped ilatSdy aboard here she and the Bev. Dnnfafrla would stand over me. Watch and- jwatefa. till I was convert ed or crasy.ione.or the other." i "Well, there's , Angle. She" v "Acsier sniffed Mr. Tidditt. "Stop your Jotdta',J3Bley. This is a serions matter." "I wantdokm. What" "There, there, .boys!" interrupted the ssptata. -Don't fight. Bailey didn't mean to Joke, Ase. He's fall of what the papers call unconscious humor.' In gfrre in ttrarttAngie is about as seri ous a matter as I can think of without Bettin' down to rest. Humph! So fur we ha vent gained any knots to speak of. Any more candidates on your mfend?" More possibilities were mentioned, but none of them seemed to fill the bUL The conference broke up without arriving at a decision. Monday morning after breakfast Captain Cys trunk was put aboard the depot wagon, and Dan'l Webster drew It to Its owner's home. . The farewells at the perfect boarding house were af fecting. Mrs. Tripp said that she had spoken to the Bev. Mr. Daniels and be would be sure to call the very first thing. Keturab affirmed that the cap tain's stay had been a real pleasure. Ton never find fault. Cap'n Whit taker," she sold. "You're such a man ly man. If you'll excuse my sayln so. I only wish there was more like you," with a significant glance at her hus band. As for Miss Phinney, she might have been saying goodby yet if the captain had not excused himself. Asaph accompanied his friend to the house on the hill. The trunk was un loaded from the wagon and carried Into the bedroom on the first floor, the room which had been Captain Cy's so long ago. Gabe shrieked at Dan'l Webster, and the depot wagon crawled sway toward the upper road. "Got to meet the up train," grumbled ths driver "not that anybody ever mass -tra It. feat Xjiariite Im.'posed imffTASffiR'S PLACE By JOSEPH C. LINCOLN Copyright. 1908. by D.

"So you're goin' to do your own cook In for a spell, Cy?" observed Asaph a half hour later. "Well, I guess that's a good idea till you can find the right housekeeper. I ain't been able to think of one that would suit you . yet" . "Nor I either. .- Neithers Bailey, " I Judge, though for .awhile he. was . as full of suggestions as 'a pine grove is of wood ticks. ' He started to say some thin' about it to me last night; but Ke tury hove in sight and yanked- him off to prayer meetin'." -; "Yes, I know. She cal'lates to get him Into heaven somehow." v. : -. - VI guess 'wouldn't be heaven for her unless he was around to pick at. There he comes now. ; How'd he get out of wipin' dishes?" - " " Mr. Bangs strolled Into the yard. "Hello r he hailed. "I was on my. way to Simmons' on an errand, and I thought I'd stop "in a, minute. Got somethin' to tell you, Whit." "All right Overboard with ft! It won't keep long this hot weather." Bailey smiled knowingly. "Didn't I hear the up. train whistle as I was comln' along?" he asked. "Seems to me I did. Yes! Well, if I ain't mis taken somebody's comln' on that train, somebody for you, Cy. Whittaker." "Somebody for me?"- "Urn hum! I can gen'raHy be de pended on, I cal'late, and when you says to me, "Bailey, you get me a housekeeper, I didn't lose much time. I got her." Mr. Tldditt gasped. "Got her?" he repeated. "Got who? Got what? Bailey Bangs, what in the world "have" , "Belay, Ase,", ordered Captain, Cy. "Bailey, 'what are yon givin us?" "Girin you a housekeeper and a good one, too, I shouldn't wonder. She may not be one of them $10,006 prize museum beauties," with a scorn ful wink at Asaph, "but Jf : what I heat's true she can keep bouse. Any how she's kept one for forty odd year. Her name's Deborah Beasley, she's a widow over to East Trumet, and If I -don't miss my guess she's in the depot wagon now headed In this direction." "Thar s her on the aft thwart. I Judge. She ain't what you'd call a spring pul let Is she'" She certainly was not The occu pant of the. depot wagon's rear seat was a thin, not to say scraggy, female, wearing a black, beflowered bonnet and a black gown. A black knit shawl was draped about her shoulders, and she wore spectacles. "Whoa!" commanded Mr. .umley, piloting the depot wagon to the side door of the Whittaker house. Dan'l Webster came to anchor immediately. Gabe turned and addressed his pas senger. s "Here we be!" he shouted. "Hey?" observed the lady In black. "Here we be!" repeated Gabe, rais ing his voice. . . "See? See what?" "Oh, heavens to Betsy! rm, gettin'. the croup from howlin.,' say here '-we be! Get outl" He accompanied the final bellow with an expressive pantomime indi cating, that the passenger was expect ed to alight She seemed to under stand, for she opened the door of the carriage and slowly , descended. Mr. Bangs advanced to meet her. "How d'ye do. Mrs. Beasley?" he said. "Glad to see yoa all safe and sound." Mrs. Beasley shook his band. Hers were covered as far as the knuckles by black mltta. "How d'ye do, Cap'n Whittaker?" she said in a shrill, voice. v"Yon pret ty smart?" " , ,-. Bailey hastened to explain. "I ain't Cap'n Whittaker!" be roared. "I'm Bailey Bangs, the one that wrote to you." - . ' "Hey?" , Mr. Liumley and Asaph chuckled. Bailey colored and tried again. "I ain't the cap'n r he whooped. "Here he is here!" He led her over to her prospective employer and tapped the latter on the chest. "How d'ye Io, sir?" said the house keeper. "I don't know's I Just caught your name." In five minutes or so the situation was made reasonably clear. Mrs. Beasley then demanded her trunk and carpetbag. The grinning Lumley bore "I AIN'T THE CAPN I" TBX WHOOPED. "HBBB, EI IS HKHEl" them Into the bouse; then he drove away, still grinning. Bailey looked fearfully at Captain Cy. "She is kind of hard of hearin. ain't she?" he said reluctantly. "You re member I said she was." The captain nodded. "Yes," he answered; "you're a truth tellin chap. Bailey. I'll say that for you. You don't exaggerate your state ments." . ' "Hard of hearin!" snapped Mr. Tld ditt "If the last trump ain't a steam whistle she'll miss Judgment day. I'll stop Into Simmons' on my way along and buy you a bottle of throat balsam, Cy. You're goin' to need it" The captain needed more than throat balsam during the fortnight which fol lowed. The Widow Beasley's deafness was not her only failing. In fact she was altogether a failure so far as .her -housekeeping was concerned. She -could cook after a fashion, but the fashion was so limited that even the bill of fare at the perfect boarding house looked tempting in retrospect. "Baked beans again, Oy!" exclaimed Asaph, dropping in one evening after supper. . " 'Tain't Saturday night ;oo soon, is it?" "No," was the dismal rejoinder. "It's Tuesday, if my almanac ain't out :f Joint But we had beans' Saturday, and they ain't all gone yet so I pre sume we'll have em till the Jast one's swallowed.' - Aunt Debby's got what : the piece in the Reader used to caH a frugal . mind.- She don't Intend- to waste , any thing. Jast Thursday- I . spunked up courage enough to yell for ' salt fish and potatoes fixed . up with pork scraps, you know, same's we used to have when I. was a boy. : We . had . 'em, all right, and if beans of a Satur- . flay, hadn't' been.; part of :her ..religion we'd, be warmm' 'em up yet I took in a cat for company f other day, 'but the critter's run1 away. To see It look at the beans In Its saucer and then at me was pitiful. I felt like bandin myself over to the cruelty to animal folks." r "Is she neat?" Inquired Mr. Tidditt "I don't know. I guess so on the Installment plan. It takes her a week to scrub up the kitchen, and then one end of It Is so dirty she has to begin again; consequently the dust is so thick In the rest of the house that 1 tan see my tracks. If 'twan't so late In the season I'd plant garden stuff In the parlor nice soil and lots of shade with the curtains down." from the rooms In the rear came the words of a gospel hymn sung in a tremulous soprano and at concert pitch. -' ' f "Music with my meals, Just like a high toned restaurant," commented Captain Oy. , "But what makes her sing so ever last In' loud?" ' "Can't hear herself . if , she ,don't . I could stand her deefness, because 1 if-hflfa fin aiHiftinn flnrt wa mn v nil come to it but" The housekeeper, still singing, en tered the room and planted herself in a chair. "Good evenin. Mr. Tidditt," she said, smiling genially. "Nice weather we've been havin'." - . Asaph nodded. , ' "Sociable critter, ain't she!" observed the captain. "Always .wfliln to help entertain. Comes and sets up with me till, bedtime. Tells about her family troubles. Preaches about her niece j out west and how set the niece and j the fest of the western relations are . to have her make' em a visit I told her she better go I thought 'twould do her good. I know 'twould help me consider'ble to see her start. "She's got so now she finds fault with my neckties," he added. "Says I must be careful and not get my feet wet Picks out what I ought to wear so's I won't get cold.' Shell adopt me pretty soon. Oh, lfs all right! She can't hear what you say. Are your dishes done?" he shrieked, turning to the old lady. "One? One what?" inquired Mrs. Beasley. - v ' They won't . be done till you go, Ase," continued. . the . master of the bouse. "She'll stay with us till the last -gun fires. T'other -day -Angie Phin ney called, and I turned Debby loose on her. I didn't believe anything could wear'' out Angle's talkln' ma ' chinery, but she did it Angelina ' Btayed twenty minutes and then quit hoarse as a cow." I Here the widow Joined In the con- versatlon. evidently under the Impres- sion that nothing had been said since she last spoke. Continuing her fa j vorable comments on the weather, she 1 observed that she was glad there was so little fog. because fog was hard for folks with "neuralgy pains." ' Her brother's wife's "cousin had "neuralgy" for years, and she described his suf ferings with enthusiasm and infinite ! detail. Mr. Tidditt answered her ques tions verbally at first later by nods and shakes of the head. Captain Cy fidgeted in his chair. , "Come on outdoor, 'Ase," he said at last "No use to wait tOl she runs down, 'cause she's a self winder, guar anteed to keep goin for a year. Good night!" he shouted, addressing Mrs. Beasley and heading for the door. "Where you goin'?" asked the old lady. - "No yes. Who said so? Hooray! Three cheers for Gen'ral Scott! Come on. Ase!" And the captain, seizing his friend by the arm, dragged him Into the open air and slammed the door. "Are you crazy?" demanded the as tonished town - clert. ' "What makes you talk like that?" "Might as welL She wouldn't under stand it any better If 'twas Scripture, and it saves brain .work. The only satisfaction I get is bein' able to give my opinion of her and the grub with out hurtin' her feelln's. If I called her a wooden headed Jumpln' Jack she'd only smile and say no, she didn't think 'twas goin' to rain, or somethin' Just as brilliant" "Well, why dont you give her her walkin' papers?" . ; "I shall when her month's up." I wouldn't wait no month. I'd heave her overboard tonight You hear me!" Captain Cy shook his head. "I can't very well," he replied. "1 hate to make her feel too bad. When the month's over I'll have some ex cuse ready, maybe. The joke of it is that she don't really need to work out She's ; got ' some money of her own owns cranberry swamps and I don't know what all. Says she took up Bailey's offer 'cause she cal'lated I'd be company for her. I had to laugh even in the face of those beans when she said that" However, at the end of the month Cyrus sent Deborah on her way with an extra month's salary In her pocket Zfi he CflAiinued.X LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS BT BLAKCHE Every-Moment Exercises When I say "every-moment exer cises," I am speaking literally. It la a splendid thing to have! a set of ex ercises for the development of the neck and chin, and if you have them, use them. But have you ever stopped . to thinlt that there are certain exeroises that you can use while on the street In the theatre, out calling or even on Nora's day out while you are cooking John his dinner, that' will materially im prove the lower part of your face?.. There most assuredly are. First please notice the picture with this article. The pose of the head, the elongated neck, are certainly at tractive. As a matter of fact, the young lady is simply putting in prac tice one of my every-moment exer cises. She is stretching the cords and ten dons of her neck, and incldently, cul tivating a graceful head-carriage. Ad ded to all this, she is ueing prevention as the best, cure for that bugbear of womankind a double chin. Exercise No. 2 is, change the posi tion of your head frequently. Cer tain ultra-inclined women are advo cating a hideous pseudo style lately that' of carrying the head sunk be tween the shoulders and fixed there stiffly. Look around a bit for your self, and see how ugly and beauty destroying a fad this is. Try to keep your heck stretched out to' Its fullest extent Do not hold It stiffly.' I do not mean by all this to crane your head forward like a turtle peer ing out of its shell, or to twist your neck ! extravagantly. Extremes are extremes and are always unsightly. But hold your head up as though the world meant something fine and big to you, and act alive. Don't slouch your neck into your collar or hump your shoulders.
