Then she girl turned | to me. : "Why, Roxane!" she cried. I exclaimed, in i { | _"Mariam!" | same breath. "What on earth are you ~ doihg the here?" (This from both of us at the | same time). Then we clasped each | other in our arms. It was some minutes after our | | public and affectionate greeting be-| | fore we could recover from our mu- | tual surprise sufficient to' talk co- | herently. When we had looked up| and saw the stern visage of the maid, | who, arms akimbo, plainly was wait- | ing to see that we left the neighbor- hood, Mariam shrank from her, plac- | ing a hand appealingly on my arm. | "It was the wrong house," she whispered.

"That maid will stand there forever, | unless we leave, and it makes my blood curdle to look at her. Did you ever see such a countenance?" "She thought I was a thief," said Mariam, almost tearfully. "She or- dered me away. Do I look like a] thief, Roxane?" i "Of course not, you silly child!" | "But the maid thought so. She looked at me so hard, and then she pushed me out of the doorway. 'Don't try nothing like that," she told me. 'That game has been played on me before," I didn't know at first what she meant, but suddenly it dawned upon me that she suspected I wanted to rob the house or some other hor- rible thing. 1 fled." | "She isn't a very good judge of human nature," I said.

Frankford Fair a Success. Belleville, Sept. 25.--Frankford's annuil fair was held Friday. In snite of heavy rains during the night the attendance was as usual large, and the entry list reached a total of near- ly two thousand. Exhibits were up to the past, except in fruit and cattle; the horse show was exceedingly fine and the poultry were first class. Much interest centred in the speeding events and in the physical drill and machine gin demonstration by the machine gun section of the 155th Battalion under Lieutenant Allen and McGie. e thing nice and be quite right about it, but to mistake you for a burglar, Mariam, is a reflection on the ob- server." | "That's precisely what I think,' Roxane; but then one can hardly blame her if all persons are like me. I hardly ever go out that I do not try to get into the wrong house before I finally find my home. The houses | here all look alike, and somehow I never think to look at the number. It's not like dear old Americus, "But.what are you doing in New York?" I asked. "The last time I saw you you seemed content to remain forever in the South." "And so I was," replied Maniam. "This is not of my doing--this com- ing to New. York. It's Uncle John's. He insisted and kept on insisting un- til I just had to come.

I remonstrat- ed, "You are just old enough to be full grown, and that is all. Yet you speak of being an old maid." "It isn't how old you are, Roxane, it's how old you feel that makes you an old maid. I've discovered that." "Perhaps you are right in some cases," I agreed. 'But you are in no danger so far as you, yourself, are concerned. New York is too gay a place ever to permit one' to grow old prematurely." "It is too gay and too big," replied Mariam, "It's bigness appals me ap times, and the people I see, and the display and the clothes--why, I some- times rub my eyes, expecting to find that I have been dreaming." We had walked more than 'a block when Mariam suddenly stopped. "I do believe this is our house," she said uncertainly. "It looks Just like it." She ran up the steps and rang the bell. "I'm afraid to try my key," she "I did that once at the wrong house and they almost sent me to jail!" LANSDOWNE NEWS BUDGET School Fair A Success--Several Pro- perty Transfers.

The first contingent of the Republic's expedi- tionary force is on the eve of depart: ure, but its destination is a secret. The special training of the Portu- guese troops seem to qualify them for a mountain campaign, as in the Balkans. But popular feeling in France, as in Portugal, is in favor of their fighting on the western front. British and French staff officers and military instructors directed the training of Portugal's reservists and new levies.
