jfc lff*n, a Maid and a Motor ty FREDERICK HART « IA H20, tor XcClur* Newspaper Syndicate.) When one's automobile refuses to continue on its way at 10:30 at night, 4m a lonely road eight miles--if the blue book Is to be believed--from nowhere, there is not much one can do about it except curse the garage at which the last overhauling was done and do on^'s l>e«t to repair the machine. But when one Is only twenty, with no particular knowledge of the Intricacies with which manufacturers fill the hoods of the motor cars they |mt out, the task of repairing may well |>e given up as hopeless. So thought fhyllis Deane as she sat disconsolate- ,'ly in the seat of her little roadster and I Vondered Just what she was going to "tflo about it all. She had reassured •Jierself that there was plenty of gasoline in the tank, so the trouble, whatever it was, involved more than a mere refill In U'. "Even if I could refill it," Inourned Phyllis to herself, "I Just know I'm out here miles from a garage." But the prospect of a night spent on -a lonely road In a broken down car, ; with no prospect of help even when - • morning came, is enough to make the Stoutest heart quail, so we must not ttlame Phyllis if she found herself choking back something that was suspiciously like a sob. Then she left the S »eat, lifted the hood and took another despairing look into the tangled and terrifying conglomeration of wires and f)Ipes that confronted her gaze. "Oh, why didn't I take that course • In the motor school while I had the chance!" wailed she. "Or why did I «ver leave Aunt Mary's to drive home 9.1 one when I might have known this old bus would break down? Oh, rm the unluckiest giri In the world-- , "What's that?" "That" iwas nothing very terrifying, trat to the overwrought girl it seemed fraught with approaching doom. It •was a clear, masculine, whistle proceeding out of the blackness of the road behind the ear. Ahead the front lights cut a path of radiance that made the road in the rear seem doubly dark In comparison. It might be a tramp, thought Phyllis, or a kidnaper, or a (murderer, or almost any one who •would be undesirable to meet at night on a dark road without an introduction. Instantly she made up her mind. She would not stay to be murdered. She would hide and see who the intruder was. Suiting the action to the thought she slipped around the rear of the car and -concealed herself behind a friendly 9>ush, where she could see without being seen. The whistler approached. She heard his footsteps come down the hard-packed road at a brisk gait. Another moment and he stood beside the car. The whistle ceased. luck!" she heard him say. In a louder tone: "Oh, whoever thig car! Will you give me a lift down the road?" Silence rewarded him. He called «gaiu, with no better result. Then he miked to the front of the car. His '-gbaee took in the open hood and he ^ave a long, low whistle. "So that's It!" he said aloud,~though to himself. "A breakdown, and they've left the car and gone on. Well, well, I •wonder whose car It Is. I wonder " wondering, apparently, he stooped «*er the hood. Phyllis heard him fmafcllng about, then be emerged and weOt on a hunt for the tool box. Apparently his search was rewarded, for he returned to the engine and she the muffled clink of steel on He straightened with a satlslr and walked to the seat of the but this time his path took him through the beam of the twin headlights and for the first time Phyllis saw him distinctly. She saw, not the tattered rogue her Imagination had conjured up, but a tall, light-haired youth of apparently about twenty-five, with a clean-cut face and eyes that, though they blinked in tke white glow, were blue and jolly. He was dressed in a tweed coat, loosely wad comfortably fitting, with knlck- •er-bockers of the same material. A cap and golf stockings and heavy shoes completed his sartorial equipment. But Phyllis, after the first swift glance, found herself looking again at bis eyes. She had about decided that they were nice eyes when he stepped out of the light and was Immediately swallowed up like a disappearance in the moving pictures. She heard him climb Into the seat f«il press the button of the self-start* «r. There was a grinding and then the motor burst into its elght-cyllndiered song. He throttled it down to Idling speed and she saw the flare of a match as he lighted a cigarette. Then he took hold of the steering wheel with one hand and reached forward with the other. Phyllis knew what that meant and as the gears slipped .. * ... There was an exclamation of astonishment from the seat and the brake® were applied with suddenness. Then his voice inquired: "For goodness' sake where have you been all this time?" "In--in the bush--watching yon" faltered Phyllis "and--and It's my car and thank you ever so much for fixing it; and--I--I think I must be going now." She approached the car. "Oh! It's your car? And why did you hide? Am I so terrifying? And please don't thank me for fixing It It was very simple--really." "But I really must go." Phyllis wondered why he didn't get down and let her have the car. "Well, Tm sorry. I thought you might want to give me a lift. I've been walking all day, and confess that I'm tired. I was going to drive this car along till I came to a house and leave it there. Don't say youYe going to desert me now, after I've fixed It." "But--but I don't know you." '"My name's Harbord--Johtf Harbord-- and I live about ten miles from here; maybe you've seen the place-- Judge Harbord's house. I was walking home from a neighbor's because-- because I like to walk." Phyllis gasped. "Why, you live in the next place to us! I know your father, but I never " "Then you're Phyllis Deane 1 Dad'8 promised that I should meet you as soon as I got settled. You see I've been awa£--In the west--for the past ten years. I Just got back last night I've tramped so many miles in the mountains that It seemed like old times to walk home on such a lovely night. But you wbn't refuse me a lift now, will you?" "Of course, not--Jump In--oh yon are In--well, I'll get In and now we must hurry, for I'm late and father will worry." For a few miles they sped to silence. Then John spoke. 'Tm awfully glad you Stopped, bnt I can't understand why." "Why, I couldn't fix the motor" Harbord laughed. "There wasn't anything the matter with the ifiotor. Your carburetor air-adjustment--" "Oh, don't be technical I I don't know a thing about it. I'm sorry I didn't go to the motor school." There was a pause, then, 'Tm not sorry," he said. She was conscious that be Was looking at her in the dark. •Tm--rm not either," she whispesred. Cultivating the Mango. The office of foreign seed and plant Introduction of the United States department of agriculture has assembled, through the work of its explorers and through exchange with the British East t&dian departments o^ agriculture, one of the largest collections of selected mango varieties in the world. There are now fruiting at the plant introduction field station, Miami, Fla., about twenty varieties this year, and these represent the selections from more than seventy sorts of this great fruit Some of these have scarcely more fiber In them than a freestone peach and can be cut open lengthwise and eaten as easily with a spoon as a Rocky Ford cantaloupe. They hava an indescribably agreeable aroma reminiscent of pineapples. The mango tree, when It Is in bearing, is a gorgeous sight for it is a long-lived tree and the golden-yellow fruits as they hang in great clusters from the dark green foliage make one of the great tropical plant sights of the world. A Business Mind. At the golf links, Joseph A. Harron of Ogontz Hills, near Philadelphia, was accompanied by his six-year-old son and contented himself with watching Instead of playing. What Interested his boy most was the way other boys went through the tall grass, picked up "lost balls" and got ten cents apiece for them. The lad disappeared but soon returned with a ball which he offered at the club headquarters for ten cents. "That boy of yours has a head for business," said an attendant, turning to Mr. Harron, who had just come up. "I don't know about that," said Mr. Harron. "Those balls cost me $1.10 each. If my son sells them to the club for ten cents, where do I come In?" Investigation showed that the ball had been taken out of Mr. Harron's supply in the locker room and not out of the tall grass. Iteaggerataii. Physiologist*, after having meat hundreds of skeletons, testify that thl men of our own time average from OD( to two centimeters taller than the raett of the middle ages according to a writer In the New York Evening Post We possess their armor, and we do not only appear to have grown taller as a race since the time when the armor was made, but our shoulders could never fit Inside the steel cordeleta of our medieval forefathers. In France, the superintendent of the museums under the second empire, wishing to put on the armor of Francis I, the largest suit of all In the museum of artillery, was unable to do so. It was too small for him, although he was In no sense a giant. Some years ago in Switzerland, on the occasion of a gymnastic tournament, the young men wishing to close the festivities by a procession with historic costumes, borrowed the arms and armor of the arsenal. But the young men were unable to get into It Of the supposedly enormous strength of those historic warriors we have no proof beyond the weight of the equipment The harness of the knights was very much lighter than has commonly been supposed. According to one of the catalogues of the museum of artillery, the weight of the combined armor did not, as a rule, exceed fifty pounds, and inasmuch as those who wore it were horsemen It was the horse that had to bear the greater part,of thg burden. "ON THE ROAD TO MANDALAY" Babel of Tongues at Burmese City to Witness Dedication of New Pagoda. A curious festival was held not long ago In Mandalay, the chief town of Burma. A new pagoda dedicated to the Buddhist religion was to be completed by the placing of a huge crown or thl upon Its summit, more than 800 feet above the ground. To witness the cermony came Buddhists from Indo-China, from the Himalayas, from Laos and Chan and Slam. Warriors from Katschin, sorcerers from Mot and people from other places made a medley of languages like that of Babel. On a street corner would be seen a barber pulling a customer's teeth. On another corner a Mohammedan bird dealer sold caged paroquets to Buddhists, who piously set them free. At very modern booths one could buy toe cream, soda or tea. Mandalay was a gorgeous spectacle and the new pagoda was the center of It. Every pagoda has at Its summit' a thl, or cap, the placing of which Is often a herculean task. The one to be raised weighed several hundred pounds and consisted of a gilded ball and crown and a great spindle above it To get it to the top an Inclined plane of bamboo scaffolding like a huge toboggan slide had been built and was decorated with silk flags and umbrellas. Up the inclined plane the heavy cap was slowly pulled. Six days were required for the ascent and seventh to fasten it In place. THE AOU&ADS. "As rve said before," said Mrs. Aoodad, "I am one of the few lady animals who care about being more gen* tie than the gentleman animals. "That may Sound a bit mixed up* but what I mean is that I am more gentle than Mr. Aoudad, and so many of the wives or mates of the different animals are much wilder than their husbands. "Take the lioness, for example. She ts far wilder than the lion, and the tigress is far wilder than the tiger, and so It goes; but not with the aoudad. Mr. Aoudad Is the boss! He Is wilder than I am, too, by nature. "I am a great deal more gentle. I wait until he has finished eating until I have my meal, for if I don't he shoves me away into a comer. "You've all heard of that before. 'It strikes people as very funny when they come and see us, and watch Mr. Aouded shove me out of the way until he has his meal, and then when he Is all through I go and have mipe. • "But with all that Mr. Aoudad has many fine points, and I admire them." "Thank you, thank you," said Mr. Aoudad, who had been listening. "Sometimes when I look at yon, you run away, dont you?" he asked after a moment "I do when I see that you want me to move," she said meekly. "Ah, that is very right and proper," he said, "for a Mrs. Aoudad to be so obedient even to tha mere look of a Mr. Aoudad 1 "Ah, I say It again, how fine my handsome mane Is which hangs down below my throat It Is a most beautiful mane, and my horns are so beautifully long and curved. They are just right in thickness and In size. In length and In everything else that horns should be right lnl How about that, Mrs. Aoudad?" "Right, my dear, right" she said. "You are a handsome fellow, and I am always here to tell you so. Except of course," she added, **when you send me off into a corner." "That is good," said Mr. Aoudad, "to think that you are always here except when I send you off. "Well, and what have ypu to say to me today? What have you to tell me? Stay around and talk to me, Mrs. Aoudad. I'm glad to welcome you as a talker today. That Is to say, I would like it if you talked to me, and talked a good deal to me, and talked to me of the things you know it makes me happiest to hear! You will talk to me, eh? Ah, yes, you will, for you know that you always do as I say, "That Is a very gorgeous fact, a very gorgeous fact Indeed!" "I will talk to you," said Mrs. Aoudad. "And you may stand on yonder rock as I do so." She need not have said that however, for - already Mr. Aoudad was Had the Wrong Car. My husband deals in old and new cars, and I seldom drive the same car twice. The other day I drove an old car downtown, and after doing some shop^ ping started for home. I had not gone many blocks when I discovered was not driving the same car I had when I left home, and immediately turned back. Where I had taken .the car I saw an officer talking to a very much excited woman. I offered all sorts of explanations, but it was most embarrassing, for the woman whose car I had taken was my next door neighbor, with whom I had not been on speaking terms for six months.--Chicago Tribune. Even Those. Into' Mr. Toddles' room marched the detective. "You sent for me, I understand," said he gravely, "to investigate a burglary that was committed here last night?" "Of course I did," Of course--of course!" fussed Mr. Toddles. "What Is missing?" "Several odds and ends, and three complete sets of harness--brand new, too!" "Ah!" murmured the detective. "Did the thief or thieves leave any clewa-- any traces behind them?" "Traces!" said Mr-Toddle^--No: they took those, too." ' WRONG TO CARRY A "ROLL" JFee Much Money Is Kept Out of Clr- • 'calftion Because of Currency In the Pockets. Hhat extra wad of bills the average man carries in his hip pocket Is a detriment to the national credit and a direct instigator of crime, according to 3. H. Tregoe, secretary-treasurer of the National Association of Credit Men and formerly a leader in the commercial life of Baltimore. This opinion is agreed to by Secretary Morningstar, of the Credit Men's Association of Baltimore. Scores of millions of dollars, if not tbelr bills by checks, Mr. Tregoe argues, there would be millions of dol lars( put beyond the reach of th« "knights of the diving hand" and othei seekers after loose cash. The workingman Is a factor in the present-day situation, according to Mr. Morningstar. "It is not only the rich man who carries a large amount of cash on his person," he said. "The workingman today has money and he carries it with him. Just recall a few of the tales you have read about workingmen paying cash for pianos and dia mond rings and such incidentals Then figure how much currency he keeps out of the bank by loving th« baadreds of millions, are estimated as feel of It In his pocket"--Baltimore being carried needlessly in the pockets of American citizens, and wHle in the pocket the money is as definitely withdrawn from circulation as if it were to the old sock or under the loose bride in the hearth where the motion picture misers always keep their boarded gold. Mr. Tregoe recommends a specific remedy--checks. If the people put their cash in tha bank and then paid Sun. ' A Thorough Enthusiast.

Ten of these were conflicts with Indian tribes, of which the most important were probably the Black Hawk war and the Seminole war. If these are called wars, an eleventh might be added--the Modoc war of 1873. The Important wars on the list are the War of the Revolution, the War of 1812, the Mexican war, the Civil war, the Spanish war, the War with Germany. The minor conflicts included in the list are: the War with France, 1798; the war with Tripoli, 1803; tha Philippine war, 1899.--Outlook. it ar for Segcori. j •<., Designers Are Endeavoring to Eliminate Lines Which Will Qlve Wearer Broad Appearanoe. Tea time In fashioiable places is a most fascinating hour this time of the year, as we are all tired of sport clothes and this affords an opportunity of seeing something decidedly new .in little afternoon frocks, according to a fashion authority. It is going to continue to be a fall season of light airy colors--cream lace for afternoon wear and black lace for evening wear--quite the reverse of what we have been accustomed to. A charming frock worn at tea by a blonde miss was deep ecru pussy willow taffeta and an overdress of fishnet lace In cream color. A wide ribbon girdle with Immense bow and streamer ends in the back was of wide ribbon in light tobacco biown. The whole dress carried three tones of the lighter shades of browh beautifully blended. The hat worn was one of the newer models, a medium-sized rolling brim. It was a brown duvetyn, beautifully hand embroidered in several oriental shades. The crown, semi-Tam O'Shanter effect, was of Silver metallic embroidery trimjned on one side with a soft bow of glossy broWn satin ribbon. Bfeck lace certainly reigns supreme for semlevening affairs. Whether a coat is long or short, wide or narrow at the bottom, or a wrap of conservative rich velvet or any other popular material, the designers are endeavoring to eliminate any lines which will give the wearer a broad appearance. The majority of salt coats are almost knee length, many unbelted and slightly flaring at the bottom, but not rippled, although a few show pointed Insets of contrasting materials. One suit was most novel, showing a cape instead of a coat. The skirt was made on plain, straight lines, the material being rusty gold-colored duvetyn, the bottom finished with a five- Inch band of the same material In dull delft blue duvetyn and around the bottom was a band of the gold-colored duvetyn put on underneath as a facing and it had no other lining. The large draped collar was of the same material as the skirt proper. Suit collars generally are not as targe as last season.

HAT AND BAG ttADE TO MATCH 8unbiirn Remedy. One of the best remedies for a coat of sunburn is sweet cream. The cream is healing and not the least bit irritating to the most fiercely .burned nose. The prepared "cold creams" are, of course, healing and bleaching, but are very apt to Irritate the sensitive member. Before washing , the face rub tightly with ordinary sweet table cream, let stand as long as possible, then wash the face with lukewgrm water, using no soap. Sunburn is really painful to some persons and sweet cream lessens the hurt. Like Topey. ' "What's your name?" said the officer to a young colored lad who joined the ship at the cape. Algoa Bay, sir."

' JMtira--Corsets Are Only, « J j Slightly Curved. x / jL&Wfllng to the fashion eifwrts of Paris, the, "molded frock" Is among the smartest of the new fashions. But by "molded" we do not mean a revival of the "hour glass" figure--that unnatural over-emphasized fashion which made women look as though they had been poured Into tbelr clothes and then left to harden. Mme. Magnler. the famous corset maker of Palis, announces that corsets will be "only slightly curved, following the natural lines." And from that we gather that the frocks wl.l tend la the same direction. And several of these "molded frocks" hsve already beep seen at the operA worn by the smartest society leaders of Paris. The corsage Is straight across the top. supported by a strand of brilliants or perhaps a narrow stiver ribbon, and tba desue Itself Is cnrrled down over one blp In an unbroken line and across the front, with a fold or two of drapery at the left side.
