Don't Let the Grass OXLEY STENGEL (Copyrhtht.) yon had It In you. ««|)ETTER and better!" Ralph Wll- 5 cox exclaimed delightedly, "Why, I didn't believe Max!" Ralph knocked the ashes of his cigarette on the green grass a few inches below the piazza on which the two young men sat Ho drew a deep breath of the soft, flower-laden air of a rare June night Max Crawford groaned aloud. **I say! Have a heart, can't you?" Just because I tell you I spilled a cupful of toa--like the clumsy ass that I was --spoiling a dress and an afternoon for a pretty girl and generally making a fool of myself--you think it a huge Joke. I always did abominate teas anyway. That was what happened when I was weak enough to drop in on one." "Drop a cupful of It," Ralph corrected solemnly. His brown eyes tWjjj^Jed. "Nevertheless wild horses Wouldn't have kept him away!" he explained In an aside to the moon. "You see She, the One-and-Only-Glrlin- all-the-World, Lady Moon, asked him to go. There is the answer." "What of It?" Max demanded fiercely. "She's asked others, too!" "What of It? That's what Tin asking you, surly head," Ralph returned. "Why, man, I didn't think yon were so clever!" "Clever In getting myself la messes, yes. Say, Ralph, cant yoa let me alone?" "Certainly, I can. But Is It fair, I ask you, to begin a good love story and not finish it? I want to know how It is going to end." Max did not follow his friend npstairs until the clock struck one. Even then he did not sleep. Had Mary really forgiven his clumsiness of the afternoon before? She had said so, of course. Why hadn't he invited her to go to dinner with him and at least shown her he was Interested In her? Instead he had taken the 6:10 train for Tower Hill--knowing that Ralph and his mother would welcome him. On the 8:10 bound for the city the next morning Ralph made no mention of the tea and Max's part in It For which Max was duly grateful. He did not know that his paleness was the real reason. But as they were parting at the Grand Central station Ralph reminded him that he could finish "that story" on Sunday. "Don't let the grass grow under your feet," he warned. "Dinner at two as usual. There may be company." Acting on Ralph's advice. Max ^toclded to call Mary up. He waited until evening, however. Miss Davis was out for dinner, he was informed to his dismay. Another man, no doubt Ho spent a miserable evening at the club. Where was Mary? That was Thursday. On Friday morning Max was called out of town on business. He reached home late Saturday night Too late to call Mary Davis! He tried at ten on Sunday morning. He would stay In town and see her. "Miss Davis was out of town for the week-end." Max started out and.* walked miles before catching the 12:32 for Tower Hill. What was the use of staying In town If Mary Davis was away? . Max arrived at the Rookery Just In time for dinner. Mrs. Wilcox greeted him cordially and ignored his silences. "Ralph Is late, I'm sorry," she told him. "H$ drove to the cityearly. He only said he would brln§ a girl home to dinner. I don't understand It at all, Max. I thought--" "I thought so, too, Mrs. Wilcox!" Max volunteered. Then in answer to her questioning look: "I thought Ralph was In love with Elizabeth Darrow-- and she with him," he added. Just then they both saw Ralph's car coming up the drive. It stopped in front of the piazza and Ralph Jumped out He was followed by a girl. Mary Davis! Then Max realised another girl was being assisted out of the car also. Elizabeth Darrow. Dinner was a wonderful feast. Max was seated next to Mary Davis, and somehow he managed to talk to her. After dinner what was more natural than to wander over the hills of the Rookery with Mary? Mrs. Wilcox had excused herself for a siesta. Ralph and Elizabeth had Just disappeared. Max and Mary had been watching a sailboat on the sound. Mary looked down at the carpet of green at their feet "Why, you can almost see the grass grow!" she laughed. "Oh, 1( musn't!" Max exclaimed. "Stand on that rock, please, Mary!" "What do you mean?" The girl was puzzled. "I mean--I don't want to let the grass grow under our feet--I dont want to lose you, Mary." Then he held out his arms and Mary's dear head was on his shoulder. He drew her close. It was their hour. "Now will you finish that story?" Ralph demanded when the two girls had gone upstairs with Mrs. Wilcox. "Yes. And they lived happily ever after--thanks only to yon! But how in the world, Ralph?'* "How did I find out about Maryt Easy. She and Elizabeth are friends, you remember. But even with your good start you rarely needed help, old man." * "I surely did!" Max grinned. "Thanks, pal. But congratulations are due you; too. . All the happiness In ths world!" "Well, I go after mine! JJsre acft the girls now." ' "V:" *• Milwaukee Man Found Dead In Bed • at Home of Niece a t . Orchard Beach WUliam McCoy, 60 years old, was found dead in his bed at 9 o'clock Sunday morning at the summer cottage of his niece, Mrs. Edward Schillo, at Orchard Beach, one-half mile north of McHenry. Mr. McCoy, whose home was at Milwaukee, Wis., had been in poor health for some time and had come to the pleasant summer cottage of his niece, Mrs. Edward Schillo, and her mother, Mrs. Barrett, to rest and recuperate. Mrs. Barrett is the sister of Mr. McCoy. He attended a movie in town Saturday night and went to bed about 11 o'clock seemingly as well as ever. When his sister went to call him the next morning she found him dead in bed, the victim of a heart attack. Coroner E. H. Cook was summoned and a verdict of death due to chronic myrocarditis was returned following the inquest. The,body was taken to the Jacob Justen undertaking parlors and later in the day the remains were taken to Milwaukee where burial took place. "There is no chance that the price of beef will come down--at least not for two years, if ever. It is up to stay and the trade will have to readjust itself to it," said J. S. Campbell, Chicago representative of the Bureau <of Agricultural Economics, U. S. Department of Agriculture, at a meeting of the Retail Meat Dealers association recently in Chicago. He gave as his reason that the producers are not allowing the young stock to leave their farms for they know that the price of beef cattle is going higher. The feeders are buying up every young animal they can get of any description to feed up and sell at a much higher price. 'The trouble is," he said, "there are no cattle on ranges like in former years, to bring in when the feed lots are emptied." If this expert is right, the consumers who are waiting for beef prices to drop are going to be disappointed. The local markets are compelled to malr» their retail prices in accordance with the market quotations. MRS.
