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 has
one in the same row,'and she told
me about ours. It is the southwest
corner house, while hers is the
southeast. Isn’t it strange, Pcrrv,
that 1 have never been introduced
to Mr. Sraead ? I wouldn’t believe
there was any such person if I had
not seen him.”
“Nothing strange about it,”
growled Perry. - in whsT bis wife
called his “bulldog” voice, “I sup
pose you want to know him because
he has the reputation of beiru a
iadv killer.”
“Perry!”
C T am told by fellows we both
know that he prides himself on his
beauty.”
• *♦*.**
A week later both families were
settled in the row which fronted a
street and a railroad track and was
equidistant from two depots.
Mr. Smead did not take as kindly
to the change as Perry Thorne did,
but he told his wife thoughtlessly
that one good feature of suburban
life was having the Thornes for
neighbors.
“Where have you ever met Mrs.
Thorne?” asked his wife suspicious
ly.
“Don’t know her from Adam, my
dear, but isn’t she your friend, ana
haven’t I heard her praises sung
ever since we were married?”
“H’m! We have a calling ac-
uaintance, and now that we are to
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 rive
your best friend a great send off I
susceptible and she giddy! We
must be made for each other.”
Mrs. Smead looked volumes at
her handsome husband, but when
is the man who does not enjoy be
ing a bone of contention among his
women folk, and if Smead had a
special and particular virtue it was
that of being good natured.
Mrs. Smead, like the woman of
history, had two treasures—bee
sewing'machine and her husband—
and son drew the line at lending
either, and lf people wanted to caU
her selfish they might. Fortified by
this law, she rented the southwest
cottage.

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 the gates
in approved suburban style and
caught on just as the train moved
out, and then Perry shouted in a
voice that sounded above the roar
of escaping steam:
“We’ve left our Sunday dinners
on the window stand of the ticket
office. You 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 him in •
friendly way:
“Nice way to spend the summer,
living in the suburbs ?”
“Yes, if you don’t care what you
sav.” growled the man.
Then Smead took a bit of paste
board from his pocket and began
to study it.
“Southeast comer, Terrace row,
Oakland.”
Smead asked his gruff neighbor
if he got off at that station.
“No, I don’t,” said the man.
“You couldn’t hire me to live in
that swamp. I go out ten miles
farther, where you don’t have to
sift the atmosphere to keep^ the
mosquitoes from choking you.’
That sounded discouraging, but
Smead was not anxious to ride ten
miles farther on an accommodation
train that slowed up for every cow
on the track, and he wrapped him
self in a speculative reverie until the
brakemon called “O-e-k-l-a-n-d! aa
if only the deaf lived at that sta-
tl(HL . , # i
Mrs. Sinead was waiting for her
husband, whom she expected on the
6:30 train, but the train had come
tfnd gone, and instead « «w ns ad
•ome, well groomed Mr. Smead t
frantic woman, her neighbor, Mrs “
-Thorne, rushed into her cottage. .
“I’ve caught him!” she gasped -
‘Tie’s locked up in the library. Oh)
Oh! Oh!”
"Caught whom?” asked the mys
tified woman. Then, seeing that hei
distracted visitor was very near
fainting, she collected restoratives
and brought back Mrs. Thorpp’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 ol
his hair—had feloniously entered
her house a moment before she
came and, walking boldly into hei
library, had been locked safely
therein by herself.
“The windows are nailed down. 1
have been waiting for Perry to open
them, so he cannot escape that
way,” she concluded.
“I expected Amo- on the last
train. I don’t see ; v at is keeping
him,” said Mrs. Sinead, *‘but he has
not eo:ne yet.” —
“Neither hns Perry, hr.t perhaps i
they will come together. : Isn’f it
dreadful? I daren’t go back with
that man in the house. I ki?pw- by
his looks he is a murderer. Our
girl hasn’t come, and I’m all alone.
Oh, if Mr. Sinead were only herd!”
“I guess I’ll do just as well,” said
Mrs. Smead coldly. “I will take
our revolver, and you can bring the
stove lifter, and ws will interview
him through the door.”
“But what good will that do? He
may s-h-o-o-t first 1”
“Come on,” said Mrs. Smead con
temptuously. She was only a young
matron herself, but she was not go
ing to be ignominiously routed by a
one man army, and she led the way
to her neighbor’s cottage. No oth
er people lived in the row, so they
had all the fun to themselves.
But 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 families, stopped at
the nearest depot, and Perry
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?”
“That is what I would like to
know,” said Mrs. Smead. “I ex
pected him on this train.”
“I haven’t seen him. Who to the
man?”
“A burglar, and he’s locked up
in the library. Don’t you think 1
was brave?” asked Maud, who, now
that her husband had come, felt
that she might poee as a heroine.
“Burglars already? Ha, this is a
diversion. Give me tte key, Maud,
I’ll take your revolver, Mrs. 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.
<r 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 Mrs. Thorne’s
captive,” he said.
“What doe3 this mean?” cried
Perry, his face flaming.
“Yes, what does it mean. 9 ” 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 ms
‘southwest,’ and 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 Maud’s cheeks
grew red with embarrassment* and
Mrs. Smead said:
“Come home! After this I will
meet you at the train and see that
you don’t get into the wrong house.”
“Do forgive me, Mr. Smead,” 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
his colors, and with this parting
shot he followed'his wife to the
“southeast* cottage.—Detroit Free
