THE GEORGIAN’S MAGAZINE, PAGE Daysey Mayme and Her Folks By FRANCES L. GARSIDE. THE tear? a woman wipes away on the kitchen towel are the most sincere tears a woman ever sheds. The tears wiped away with a dainty lace-trimmed handkerchief are some times for effect, and between weeps there are furtive glances at the mirror to see If such deep sorrow Is making the nose red. When a powder rag ap pears to remove all signs of woe, the woe Is never deep. The kitchen towel Is a comforter that only Mother knows. Daughter's grief is usually so fleeting that it never reaches the kitchen At least, this is true In the Appleton family. Daysey Mayme was weeping into a piece of linen three inches square, but her wo*, ah me, was much larger. Rhe had a birthday. Kin four de grees removed sent boxes of candy and perfume and jewelry, and kin not quite so far removed sent more, that being one of the unwritten rules of Klnville. Her father had given her a gold watch, her mother had given her a dia mond ring, and her brother had spent a month's allowance tn buying her a locket as big as the moon. They expected her to be joyful, for •very longing ahe had expressed was gratified But she swept them aside with sad eyes, thanked them with the tears coming, and then went to her room to eat her heart out, a canni balistic feat achieved only by those who leva. For HE. her Beet Beloved, had sent her nothing' He had called twice a week for a month, and she knew he lowed her, and he knew ft was her birthday, and he didn't send even a birthday wish. What were the gold watch from fa ther, th* diamond ring from mother the gold locket as big as a moon from brother and all the gifts from kin four degrees removed compared with one little remembrance from him? Ah. nothing, alas, and woe’s me! Thle forgetfulness meant perfidy. He didn't love her. Nobody loved her Os course, the family and kin were kind, but why shouldn't they be? Wasn’t she the only girl In the family? If he had only called her up to wish her many happy returns! If he had only-—and she cried more and more, thinking how when she was old and gray she would still be cherishing the faded flowers If he had only sent her a bouquet, and now she must grow old and die without a single faded token! < And she wept som* more, and saw her nose was getting red. Then she got her powder rag and cologne and wiped the tears away and felt better But in the enjoyment of the woe of love she found no room for apprecia tion of what her family had done. And her father went to work with a sigh, and her brother wished he had his money back, and her mother, remem bering all the sacrifices the family had mad*, said nothing, but went out and hid her face in the kitchen towel.

He gave Rimington a push forward that on another day might only have accel erated his steps, but which today, dizzy and 111 as he felt, sent him sprawling for ward so suddenly and unexpectedly that the men following in the close-packed, prison file stumbled also, forming for an Instant a writhing and confused melee. As Rimington, bottom dog. and suffering horribly in his state of numb cold from the kicks of Iron-shod boots and the pressure, struggled to extricate himself , he heard a sudden shout, a commotion, confused sounds, and then the loud clamor of the prison bell that gave the answer to that unspoken question ham mering all day in his mind a prisoner had escaped As he rose to bis feet Rimington could see the fly ing figure, running like some thing possessed, down the track of the trolley wagon that, drawn by a small lo comotive. was used for the carting of stone from the cutting He knew the man. It was the defaulting solicitor, whose gay badinage in the prison van on their ' way to Wormwood Scrubs had both sur prised and disgusted him He was con scious of surprise now th* he watched the flying figure, two-fold surprise at the agility of the man. who was of middle age and corpulent, at his mad folly in choosing such a moment for his at tempt, when every single pbint of van tage was occupied by a sentry, every cross-road guarded, no spot or distance. I so It seemed, beyond the sight of vigi- [ la nt eyes or the roach of ready rifles. Even as he looked. Rimington saw , that, the man having paid no heed to the warning shouts commanding him to stop, a rifle was fired—-with pacific pur pose over his head ' But still he ran on Then something happened so terrible, so hideous, that almost as though be saw its every detail before its actual l culmination.

And Rimington, as he heard that shriek which rang out once. then again, and was silent forever, threw up his arms and pitched forward heavily. For the ten following days Rimington was in the infirmary His fainting fit had lasted for pome time, and the doc tor. who knew enough of his health and physique to acquit him of any suspicion of malingering, bad saved him from the usual ordeal of the bucket of cold water and ordered him straight to the infirmary. Most of the men at Bilmouth would have been glad to have changed places with him. Rimington knew that very well. The hospital, so to speak, was top hole so far as comfort was concerned, but he chafed Intolerably at his deten tion. dreading lest he might be sicken ing for some serious illness or be on the threshold of some severe breakdown, for the doctor was evasive. That would be the last stone to the cairn of his mis fortune; it would mean that when he re covered. even if his recovery were fairly rapid, he would be taken off the outdoor work, and once that was done all chance of escape would be beyond his reach.

The tragedy’ he had witnessed had done nothing to weaken his resolve to attempt to escape; he had formulated his own plan and It seemed to him to have the elements of safety. That other breaking away had been merely the thoughtless, aimless attempt of a madman His thoughts ran persistently on Betty on that dream which bad seemed like a warning and an appeal. If he could only’ write or hear—but the time for writ ing or receiving letters had not come around for him yet; he could hope for no leniency in this matters Saucers had set down certain bad marks against him for what he alleged to ha>e been cers in their duty on the day’ of the at dlnation and the obstruction of the offi tempted escape.

LOVE CAN’T BE COMPELLED, Dear Miss Fairfax: I am seventeen, and deeply in love with a girl_three years my sen-, ior. and I am sure she reciprocates. Several times I have asked her to marry me. but she has always re fused. Recently I saw her on the street with another young man. She did not recognize me. HEARTBROKEN. If she doesn't care for you, and has told you so, you should be enough of a man to take her at her word and re main away. Give some other man a chance, and learn to he glad for her sake if he is a good man. And, remem ber, there are other girls, and your happiness doesn't depend on this one as much as you think. THE TRAGEDY OF FRIENDSHIP. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am seventeen and deeply in love with a gentleman three years my senior. About two months ago. when he called. I had a girl friend with me. I introduced her to him, and since then he seems to care more for her. L. T. R. Every woman of wider and more painful experience will tell you this: It is better that he met the other wom an before his engagement (or mar riage) to you than later. A man so fickle is not worth moping for. Hunt up now interests and try to forget him. It Is all you can do. If you run after him to coax him back you only cheapen yourself. IF THERE IS ALSO OPPORTUNITY, Dear Miss Fairfax: Is there any time when two young people, keeping company, not nec essarily engaged, or, perhaps, with out engagement in sight, mav kiss? AN HONEST INQUIRER. If a. man and woman love each other there is no harm in an occasional kiss, and surely there is great joy. But I contend it is better, for the girl's sake, if an engagement exist. The man will love her more, and love her longer, if she is chary of her kisses until she wears his ring on her finger.
