IN THE SUBURBS

"It isn’t because I am tired of our
flat that I want to live in the sub
urbs, but the doctor says we both
need change,” concluded Mrs. Perry
Thorne, who was making her first
plea for country life. “And, oh
Perry, I know of such a dear cot
tage, one of a row. Mrs. Sinead ha
one in the same row, and she tol l
me about ours. It is the southwe
comer house, while hers io the
southeast. Isn’t it strange, Pern
that I have never been introduced
to Mr. Smead ? I wouldn’t believe
there was any such person if I had
not seen him.”
“Nothing strange about it,
growled Perry, in what his wife
called his "bulldog” voice. “I sup
pose you want to know him because
he has the reputation of being a
lady killer."
‘Terry!"
“I am told by fellows we both
know that ho pndea h*™.—\* on his
beauty." j> ! *-

A weak later both families were
settled in the row which fronted a
street and a railroad
equidistant from tiro
Mr. SpMddid
bd Ee fold hiTWeThougbtleaaly
that one good feature of suburban
life wae having the Thomaa for
neighbors. ~~
“Where have von ever mot Mis
Thome P" asked bis wife luraidma-
“Don’t know her from Adam, m;
dear, but isn’t she yonr friend, am
haven’t I heard her praises eung
ever since we were married ?”
“H’m! We have a nailing ac
quaintance, and now that we an to
be neighbors I suppose you will
meet. But you are so susceptible
and she is so giddy I just know you
will set people talking.
“Great Caesar, Laura! You give
your best friend a great send off.
susceptible and she giddy! We
must be made for each other.”
Mrs. Smead looked volumes at
her handsome husband, but where
is the man who does not enjoy be
ing a bone of contention among his
women folk, and if Smead had
special and particular virtue it was
that of being good natured.
Mrs. Smead, like the woman of
history, had two treasures—her
sewing machine and her husband—
and she drew the line at lending
either, and if people wanted to call
her selfish they might. Fortified by
this law, she rented the southwest
cottage.
8 *
A great throng of people was hur
rying homeward, and all bore the
happy burdens of Saturday night—
new shoes for the feet of the little
burden bearers, a new bonnet for
mother, the Sunday dinner—and
among them Perry Thome and
Amos Smead, who had struck up a
neighbors’ acquaintance and were
now hastening to the same train,
going out to their suburban homes
for their first Sabbath of rest. They
were both laden to the ears with
brown paper packages and-had just
time to make the train after pur
chasing their commutation tickets.
They went loping through tee gates
in approved suburban style and
caught on just as tee train moved
out, and then Perry shouted in a
voice that sounded above tee rear
of escaping steam:
“We’ve left
.. our Sunday dinners
on the window stand of the ticket
office. Yon go on, Smead, and I'll
take the next train out”
He swung himself clear of the
train, turned a somersault and
waved “all right" to Smead, who
mopped the cinders and perspira
tion from his face and remarked to
the man standing next to Mm in e
friendly way:
“Nice way to spend the summer,
living in the suburbs ?”
“Yes, if you don’t care what you
say” grotfled the man.
Then Smead took a bit of
board from his pocket and
to study it.
“Southeast comer, Terrace row,
Oakland.”
StimmuI asked his gruff neighbor
if he got off at that station.
“No, I don’t," said the man.
“You couldn’t hire me te live in
that swamp. I go out ten miles
farther, where you don’t have to
gift the atmosphere to keep the
mosquitoes from choking you.”
That sounded discouraging, but
Smead was not anxious to riae«ten
miles farther on an accommodation
train that slowed up for eTerv cow
on the track, and he wrapped him
self in a speculative reverie until the
brakeman called “O-a-k-l-a-n-d!" a*
if only the deaf lived at that sta
tion.
Mrs. Smead was waiting for bet
husband, whom she expected on th*
6:30 train, but the train had come
nnd gone, and instead of the hand
open
that
some, well groomed Mr. Smead s
frantic womap, her neighbor, Mra
Thome, rushed into her cottage.
‘Tve caught him!” she gasped,
“He’s locked up in the library. Oh)
Oh! Oh!”
“Caught whom?” asked the mys
tified woman. Then, seeing that her
distracted visitor was very near
fainting, she collected restoratives
and brought back Mre. Thome’s
scattered wits.
Maud explained as soon as she
could speak that a desperate looking
man—a burglar, she was certain,
and a convict as well by the cut of
his hair—had feloniously entered
her house a moment before she
came and, walking boldly into her
library, had been locked safely
therein by herself.
“The windows are nailed down,
have been waiting for Perry to o]
teem, so he cannot escape
way,” she concluded.
“I expected Amos on the last
train. I don’t see what is keeping
him,” said Mra. Smead, “but he has
not come yet.”
“Neither has Peary, but per hap*
they will come together, lan't it
dreadful P I daren't go bade with
that man in the bouse. I know by
hie looks he is a mqnkrar. Our
girl hasn't come, and Tm inline
Oh, if Mr. Smead were oab here!"
**I gufN.ru &> foot as weU," said
Mrs? amead coldly. “I will take
onr revolver, and yon can bring tbs
stove
him through the door."
“But what good will that AeP Bs
may s-h-o-o-t jjrttf”
/feomo on," said Mmjtewad
tempiuoufty. She wae only a young
matron henelf, but aha was not go
ing to be ignominioualy routed by a
one man army, and aha lad the way
to her neighbor's cottage. No oth
er people lived in the row, so they
had all the fun to themselves.
Bat at that identical moment the
7:40 train, sometimes called the
husbands’ train, so many of them
went out to spend the week’s inter
val with their familial, stopped at
the nearest depot, and Parry
Thorne, with his double load of
packages, hove in sight. Both wo
men were overjoyed to see him.
“What’s the row ?” he asked,
dropping his bundles on the veran
da.
“A man!” said both women at
once.
“Where is Smead P"
“That is what I would like to
know,” said Mra. Smead. “I ex
pected him on this train."
“I haven’t seen him. Who is the
man?”
“A burglar, and he’s locked u;
in the library. Don’t you think
was brave?” asked Maud, who, now
that her husband had come, felt
that she might pose as a heroine.
“Burglars already? Ha, this is a
diversion. Give me the. key, Maud.
I’ll take your revolver, Mix. Smead.
Now, ladies, stand aside,” and Perry
made a valiant rush for the library
door, which he unlocked and threw
open, at the same time presenting
arms according to the best manual
practice.
“Don’t shoot!” cried a familiar
voice that trembled, not with fear,
but merriment, as Mr. Smead step
ped smilingly forward and bowed
low to Maud. “I am Mra. Thome’s
captive,” he said.
“What does this mean?” cried
Perry, his face flaming.
“Yes, what does it mean?” de
manded Mrs. Smead in the measur
ed syllables of the divorce court.
“It means,” explained Mr. Smead,
“that my wife has not yet learned
to box the compass. She gave me
‘southwest,’ ana your wife locked
me up in a room that has no ventila
tion and under a criminal ban. But
I forgive her,” he added, with gal
lant protest, whereat Mand’s cheek*
E w red with embarrassment, and
». Smead said: —
“Come home! After thin I will
meet yon at the train and see that
you don’t get into the wrong house.”
“Do forgive, me, Mr. Sinead,” said
Maud penitently, while Perry glar
ed darkly like a jealous stage lover,
“but you did look so—so”—
“She said you looked like a con
vict," remarked his wife.
“At least it has made us acquaint
ed,” observed Mr. Smead, true to
bis colors, and with this porting
shot he followed his wife to the
“southeast” cottage.—Detroit Free
Press.
Waited For Himself.
One of the latest and best stories
ef absentmindedness concerns s
Pennsylvania professor. Being call
ed out on some urgent matter re
cently and expecting to be engaged
for some hours, he a fixed a notice
to the door of his private sanctum
stating that he would not be beck
till 3 o’clock in the afternoon. As
it happened, he was able to get away
earlier and arrived back at his cham
bers a little before 2 o’clock. See
ing his own notice, which he had
r te forgotten, on the door, he re*
carefully. When he had tho
eughly digested its contents, he to*
• seat on the stain and waited j
tientlj until 3 o’clock.
