believe now, when it comes to food
stuff. Flour made an advance of one
dollar and fifty cents per barrel
Wednesday, (Wholesale) bringing
the wholesale price close to sixteen
dollars per barrel. The pessimistic fi
gures of the government placing the
conditions of wheat, at a low ebb,
created a flurry in the wheat pit
Tuesday when the May option jump
ed 17c per barrel.
"IN SEARCH OF A T0WÎU
By JOAN COSBY.
Jimmy, blinking and blinded by the
shower, readied .for a bath towel. His
fingers, clutching the first one with
which they came in contact, gave it a
jerk off the rack, but the towel caught
on a faucet of the bathtub, and that
had Jimmy known it, settled his fate
forever, for his Aunt Brewster had
given him the towel and Aunt Brew
ster was his chief hope for the future.
"D-n it!" said Jimmy. Suddenly
the towel, or rather the lace of the
towel, let go, and Jimmy didn't. Out
he went over the end of the tub.
When the fireworks in Jimmy's head
had subsided and he had cautiously
tested every bone for breaks, he swore
again. "You blankety-blank loo! thing,
you, with your silly blue roses and
lace. Get out of here!" And without
any apologies to tin; donor, he hurled
the cause of his troubles through the
window and reached for another towel.
We'll leave Jimmy to dry and dress
and rub his bruises, and follow the
towel out of the bathroom window on
the sixth floor of the apartment hotel.
It floated downward—hardly floated,
either, for it was as wide and heavy
as a rug—but it arrived, at any rate,
at a certain point in the street over
which a roadster was passing at the
instant, and having a penchant for
catching on things, it caught on a but
ton of the car's top.
All unconsciously beneath her guy
canopy of lace and blue roses sat Ei
leen Brannon. She saw people stare,
laugh and point, but there was noth
ing wrong that she could see. But in
front of "Anna Katherine's Shop" she
stopped to investigate. What was at
tracting such attention? And then she
saw the towel spread shamelessly over
her natty little car.
"Where did you get that towel so
blue? Out of the sky as you came
through?"
She turned quickly. "Oh, Charley,
isn't it the limit 1 Where do you sup
pose It came from? Get It down, will
you, and Fll take it into Anna Kath
arine. These things are In her line and
maybe she'll know something about it."
But Anna Katharine didn't except
that there were weeks of work on the
lace.
"Then keep It," offered Eileen. "May
be some nice old lady will buy it for
her college grandson."
In the meantime more things were
happening to Jimmy.
The postman brought some letters,
and there was one from Annt Brewster.
Tm starting for Florida," she wrote,
"and I'm stopping to see you for a day
en route. I forgot to take off the pat
tern of the lace on that towel I gave
yon for yonr birthday. Besides there's
something else I want to see you about
that I can't explain here. Until Fri
day then. Affectionately, Aunt B."
"For the love of Peter Jones !"
groaned Jimmy. "Can you beat itl
Where in this nickel-plated town do
you suppose that towel is?"
Then someone rang the bell. It was
Charley Blogett, ' he of the titulating
rhyme.
"Hello, Charley, come ln. I just
need a tonic like you after a bally hoo
day. Aunt Brewster's coming and as
she carries my prospects around in
her bank book we'll have to concoct
some way to amuse her. Proceed,
Charles !"
Charles lit a cigarette. "Poor Jimmy !
Well, I've got a story saved up for her
that ought to help some." And he told
of Eileen and the towel.
"Mine, by jingoes! Where did you
say it is?"
"At a fancy-work shop on Fifth aVe-.
nue. Come along and Til show you
the place."
But when they reached the shop and
inquired for the bath towel they were
told that it had just been sold !
"Heavens!" cried Jimmy in dismay.
"Who bought it?"
But the 'girl didn't remember. A
lady, she thought.
"We'll get Eileen," suggested Charlie.
"Maybe she can do something. Women
can always think of a way."
So they took a taxi and went to her
house. She had just come in and wus
siill dressed for the street. Charley
started an introduction, but to his sur
prise the two were shaking hands.
"You're Jimmy Young, aren't you?"
smiled the girl, while Jimmy was say
ing: "If it isn't my little old play
mate, Dot Brannon !"
"We used to play together at Aunt
Brewster's," they explained to Charley,
quite forgetting to let go hands and
looking back at each other with inter
est that had evidently been compound
ing rapidly for ten years.
"Aunt Brewster Is here!" went on
Eileen. "I've just brought her from
the station."
"But she was to visit me !" exclaimed
Jimmy. "Funny, isn't it!"
"But he doesn't want her since he
lost the towel, so it's all right," put in
Charley.
"It's all right," said a quiet voice in
the doorway. There stood Miss Brew
ster smiling,, the towel in her hand.
"Eileen told me of her find on the way
from the station. I was interested, so
we drove around to the shop and
bought it I recognized it instantly.
But the mystery is cleared up now,
and It's all right The towel has done
what I, came to New Xj»rk to do, to
firing you and Eileen together again."
"The comedy 1% ended!" quoted
Charley.
