“However,” her sister went on. “let’s

j But Mrs. Cy Cummings dominated
j this situation Just as she bad domlnat-

I nnd Lossle, dressed In pretty frocks
| and becoming headgear, went obedi-
j ently—If rebellimtsly, upon her gny-
| chosen way. The new object of
• lage Interest was most perplexin;
his attentions. For though he noticed
not at all the four women who never
failed to be present tit each entertain
ment, his attention to Miss Lessle be
gun at first encouragingly, caused her
Kmnnglng sister much anxiety and
heart burning. For after a long and
romantic drive through the country
In Lessle’s company, Mr. Dixon would j
absent himself from lier presence for
weeks nt a time, reappearing unex
pectedly at meeting some evening to
walk home by her side, and thereupon
disappearing again from any chance
encounter.
“Mr. Dixon,” Lessle remarked one
day, “showed me some pictures of his
sister last night. My! she must have
been tine; looks like a fashion cover
In all of ’em an’ every one different.
Used to piny un’ sing an’ take part In
public entertainments, he tohl me, an’
gave teas an’ parties herself besides,”
“I'ro’bly,” Mrs. Cummings answered
crossly, “that’s why some dull stay-at-
home folks ain’t up to the mark with
him. Anyone cm see, Less Saunders,
that you ain’t enjoyin’ 1 yourself out In
comp’ny even when you’re dressed up
an’ pretendin’ to be—”
• It was then that Lessle revolted.
“Well,” she answered calmly, “there
Isn’t going to he any more pretendin’;
I’m through.”
When Lessle appeared at breakfast
next morning she was garbed In her
neat print dress with sleeves rolled
up nt the elbows. And when she went
out later to the apple trees with her
sewing she returned her sister’s dis
approving frown with a smile. Lessle
beneath the apple trees was Just a
wholesome, rosy-cheeked woman who
sang ns she rooked comfortably to
and fro. Her sister’s parting slain of
the door ns she left the house* failed
to disturb Lessle’s satisfied ei
And presently upon one of Ids unex
pected visits came Nate Dixon,
sie motioned Jilin indifferently to the
bench at her side, but the color left
her cheeks ns she laid aside her sew
ing. The village prize stared wonder-
Ingly at the woman before him.
“Why—” he stammered, “you look
real different some way, Miss Saun
ders.”
“It*s the dress,” Lessle answered
frankly, “nnd the plain way I’ve done
my hair. Tills is it’s natural way.”
she laughed shakily. “Reckon this is
Jest my natural self you’re seeing to
day, Mr. Dixon.”
A light came to the man’s eyes as
lie leaned eagerly toward her.
“You mean,” he asked, “that you
aren’t altogether a pleasure woman
after all? Forgive nie,” he quickly
added, “you see. my sister was never
contented to stay in her own home
—always running after excitement,
never finding'much happiness, either.
So I never Imd much of a home, shift
ing most of the time for myself.
I hoped when I did come to like a
woman—to love a woman—that she’d
he the kind who could make a real
home fijr me. Didn’t want to tie her
down, cither, unless I was sure she’d
be hnpjty there. Lessle,” he ended
solemnU\,“you look now like the worn-
nn who might be content in that home.
Are yoi that woman, Lessle?”
And tvhen she ^ad wiped the tears
from her eyes Lessle beamed upon him.
“Beats all,” she said, A how my whole
life Ini' gone by contraries, right up to
tills minute when I thought you’d
never el re, for the real me—that. I

1 Greatest Reductions Yet Offered!
IN THE PRICES OF ALL DRY GOODS *§ READY-TO-WEAR
Because we realize that the farmer cannot in justice to himself pay the high price for goods that
were bought by us on a 40c cotton basis and also that the market value of our large stock of dry
goods, shoes and ready-to-wear, etc., is declining daily with the price of cotton, we have been and
are selling merchandise below cost. It is time for everyone to make a sacrifice and we are ready to
take or lose and grin about it. \
