A IMatter
of Years
By
H. X~ HARRINER.
?topy right, 1SB. by Hm.ll/ Story Pab. Co?}
?IS sister, who disliked Kate Mar
dock for reasons best known to
?elf. was continually saying spite
fari little things about "girls who
raised generations of young men,"
<wisi??b Is generally considered to be
Batest as biting a thing as one young
wamas can say about another.
Bat this ma le no difference to poor
?nark, except to make him rather more
attaMicrn. and to make him more fre
gaootly dream of Kate's blue eyes and
Barest face, arid to make him try with
K,'' jf diligence, but poorer success,
?r target that she was 25 years of age
ars?!le he was barely pant 20, and that
she had been in society before he had
gens Into long trousers
Me ased to remember with s hot re?
eaatxsent how she had In reality lit
?srsJHy trained him. How one ulght
atta they were In the garden to
gather, and the moon was soft and
hright, he had given her s white rose,
sad If ehe hadn't suggested the pretty
araeeeh that should have gone with it,
she same so clo?e to it it didn't make
txrach difference.
Then when he waa trying with all
tasa awkwardness of an 18 year-old boy
ta learn to dance. It was Kate who had
ahown him the step when his sister
arad the others had given him up as
? dress-destroying oaf. And when
ether boys, who had paid more atti
tisn to dancing school and less to
Basking of s living, had opens?
eaeered at the efforts of his spectacu
tar feet.
He was grateful to Kate for all this,
trf ?ourse, but still, sweet as she had
bees, there was a natural air of the
esteran shout her which he resented,
resllrcrng with ournlng ears how raw
ay eomparison had been the material
she hsd to work upon.
These were the sort of things Dick
aaonrht upon as be sat alone la his
teem??one large and one small, over
?Burton's grocery etore.
The family had left weeks before
far Florida to spend the cold months,
their household goods had be?sn stored
Band eoly Dick was left Left because
he was trying wuh might snd main to
arBtsls a better position upon the staff
?at the Argus-Leader.
There were no racks with guns in
rae tapestries in Dick's apart
Then?? was a pipe or so with
of old magazines on the lit?
table, s confused carpet of old
?papers on the floor, and oa a
little coal stove a battered eof
pot still sputtered. On a chair
the dishes which represented a
harried meal, sent In by a nearby res
?erasant. snd hurried because there
?aa nothing to linger over.
Is the stove soft coal smoked dls
?tVHKltK DID TOU COME FROatr*
anally or ?.puttered, according to the
?sanlity of the tiny lump it contained,
eemsvimee sending out from a tarry
Trsxhhle a thin, hissing jet of nauseous
The bed was unmade and the sheets
?Jare yellowed from bad laundering. '
aMck. hunched in a deep chair, looked
ahtrat at his surroundings with dis- j
gast. It seemed a shame that a man
at* 21? possessed of enough sense to
hold a position worthy at corporation
figures of $30 per week shonld live
Btke a pig.
He slammed the jarring stove door
ran the smoke, took pu his hat, over- !
eaat and pipe, an ? with a last look ,
at the untidy room, went oui Any-i
thing, he felt, was better than th:s?
eaJBn unneeded work at the offic?
Clall on Kate? Not much. Not when '
for two months he had tried to show
her that he didn't really need another
guardian.
Not s guardian two or three years
?Oder at that.
Re clattered down the uncarpeted
aaatrs, and at the snowy sidewalk,
tfsested with the glare, almost collided
wits a young woman, apologizing
Mindly for his clumsiness.
-Why, Dick Wortham!" Dick pulled
tUanself together and stared half un
?arstandlng into a face he knew, a
sweet face with laughing bluo 03'es,
?railing on him over the furs, and be?
t?r? he know it a little snugly gloved
hand was In h!? and he was wringing
It hard
?TCate Murdoch!" he almost shouted.
??Speaking of angels? Here, step
?ander the awning out of the snow and
let me lenh ?it you."
"Where did you come from?" de
ttaanded the girl, noting with obsery_
ant eyes thai 1'?rk asedad a shave
badly.
"From upstairs,*' answered Dick,
the light going out of his face. "It's
an awful hole, Kate. Wish you could
aee It."
"Oh. let me r-ee It!" she es^lalroan.
Impulsiv?, ly. Tie thought almo-t took
her breath away Dick stared at her.
He bit his Up hard.
"See here. Kit B. ' he sad. "I don't
mean to hurt you?you know, but?oh,
pshaw?you krtra* what I mean. I
cant do it. (chafa ..11."
"Now, Dick." she said, coaxlngly.
"Nobody arti] ever know. I'll just peef
In. Didn't we ragraB I was to be youl
fcnother?"
"Not this tri;)," said Dick, with
cheerfulne-,3 rising at the sense o!
duty done, a.-i It will In men at times.
"Mother or not, you're going home,1
young lady, and I'm going to take
you Come on."
?. "I believe you're ashamed of yourj
new home," railed the girl. "Anyway
If you don't care to take me It dcm't
make any difference." The furs wera
given a suggestive shrug. Dick had
swung beside her and they ware nark?
ing along the white s dewalk.
"Dick!"
"Well/? anawered Diek. ?rieSy
"It's awful. I know. but. Dick, I
won't go In, truly I won't. Anyway,
? you're a newspaper man. and It's like
an artist's studio."
"Yes," said Dick, "and living room
| and kitchen and hadrootra. See here,
Kate." He stopped and pawed the
hard snow. "Toa know j'i t as well
as you're stani Bfj there I'd do any
thing on earth for you. Yen know It.
But that? Baa here- l think too
much of you to let you (to it."
The girl drew her wrap about her
and silently they resumed their trudg?
ing. Dick taking the rough snow and
I the girl daintily treading the beaten
path. Suddenly she stopped again.
"Dick," she said, "if I get Walter
to go with us will It be all right?"
They had reacnod the house by thla
time. Dick consider??!
"Well." he sail, with a sigh. "I
guess even a nne-year old brother will
do. Get him and come along. But
I'll tell you now, Kate, you'll never
? apeak to me again after you see that
place."
"Walter didn't want to go much. It
was cold; besides, wonderful to re?
late, he had his lessons to get. A
quarter? Well, yes, he didn't mind
going so very much."
"Dick Wortham!" exclaimed the
? girl. "Aren't you ashamed?to bribe
' him?"
j "Well." said Dick, spreading his cold
hands before the Are, "you wanted
to go. And ycu can't go unless he
does."
Even the chaperonage of Walter did
not make D ck feel comfortable ss
they ascended the bleak stair3. He felt
like a sneak and said as much?In a
whisper.
"How dark It Is," said Kate. "I
can slmost feel the bats and mice."
Dick, looking apprehensively at the
bottom of the stairway, mentally
blessed the Janitor for forgetting to
light the gas, and reso'ved to tip him.
He did not breathe easy until the
atout door had closed behind the three.
"Oh. Dick!" said the girl. That waa
all. Walter had discovered In the
' curtained alcove certain things of In?
terest.
"Oh, you poor, poor boy." she said,
softly. "How badly you do need a
mother."
"I don't." said Dick, making a Barr?
age effort to keep his eyes dry In the
face of the exposure. "I need you,
Kate?you. Am I a baby, that I
need?"
"Hush." said the girl, her eyes full
? of tears, po'nting to the figure of Wal
' ter revealed In the swaying of the
curtain. "After that?" And In a few
1 minutes as they waited for s car Dick
fancied he could s.ill feel the swift
touch of the warm fur on his face, se
ber head was pressed against hla
ehoulder. He wanted to let loose the
old college yell, and said so.
? "Do It," said Kate, radiant, "I feel
that way. too.'
' "Say. that wr.? bully," commented
I Walter, approvingly.
The polVcmrtr? \tn iri?. ??rV**<>*,'ite ?Ban?
ner started, then he shrugged his fat
shoulders. "Kv'rybody's looney 'bout
Crismas time." he commented, sagely.

Archllbald Hill, head of one of the
New York East side settlements has
wet with souie rather humorous a_
well as sad experiences in tbe coursa
of his work among the poor. This lit?
tle comedy, reported by the New York
Times, took place while he was living
in the overcrowded district populated
by Russian Jews.
It was a sad eyed, bushy-haired Rus?
sian who broke in upon his musings
one night. "My vife's sick," he said,
looking stolidly at Mr. Hill, as though
intending to hold him responsible foi
the catastrophe.

about bali an hour's eloquent dis
eoarea ' tha old gentleman was con?
vinced, and with a sig?i of relief Mr.
Hill saw him leave, bound for the
nearest free medical bureau.
Perhaps an hour afterward he re
turnexl, however, looking more ha?
rassed and worried than ever.
"She von t lake it." he .-aid. sadly.
"What was it?" asked Mr. Hill.
"Vot der Herr Doctor gibe me. She
say she no fool."
"Tell her it's not fool i ah to take
medicine. Tell her I take it always,
and it makes me well. What did he
give you?" he asked, by way of after?
thought,
"Dis," said the old man. handing
him a crumpled bit of paper.
"Have you had this prescription filled
yet?" asked Mr. Hill.
"Vilt, vilt? Vot you mean by vilt?
I gibt her dis and she vond swallow
It"
Mr. Hill leaned back in his chair In
despair. "Well, upon my word!" ha
aald. "Of course she wouldn't ?wallow
that paper. She's got more sense than
you. Now, my good man, what yon
want to do Is to take this paper back
to the dispensary where you got It
Aak the policeman there to show yon

aBty ha aeme little pilla or something
Ilka that Take that home to your
wife Give It. to her, and ?.ell her she
must awallow it at one gulp. It won't
taste bad, and It will make her well."
He repeated the directions two ?t
three times until the old man looked
aa though ha understood. "Remem?
ber," he said, as a parting warning,
"aha must awallow It at one gulp."
But hla mind was not at ease. It
suddenly occurred to him that tbe med?
icine might not come In pills or cap?
sules, after all, in which case? Tha
audden thought made the cold sweat
come. Perhaps it was a liquid. That
fool of a Russian would be likely to
give her the whole prescription In one
dose! With sudden haste he started
down the street in the direction of the |
old maa'a home.
He knocked, and the old man himself I
answered the door. There was a look
of relief on his face as he recognized
hla visitor.
"Siaa ?raon't take dis neider." he said.
"She Shy dot Hen* Doctor 1st crazy.
She can't swallow all dat. Und I tell

"Swallow!" shouted Mr. Hill. "What
have you been trying to make her swal?
low?"
"Didn't you say dot she should swal?
low at vone gulp, und I gibt her the
rubber end first, ober she no swallow
the glass part?**
"And then." said Mr. Hill, after he
had nnished telling the story, "one ex?
pects things of these poor fellows. It's
simply too bad, but what can one do?"
