Mrs. Rigby, the mother, coughed
sympathetically, a 8 much as to say, “1

“Why, not more than $40!" ecagerly,
“Well, have it done. I'll arrange to

“SBomehow,” Mrs. Righy repeated,
with a rather sour laugh, “With
your income! And no one to look out
for but yourself!” Aunt Trina opened
her mouth to speak, reconsidered and
sjmply sighed In a sort of a helpless
way. “Really,” continued the older
slster in a scolding volee, “you don't

Grace had told her a thousand times
of the pitiful life of an old maid

loneliness, feared doihg anything quite

she had put up with this life all these
years,” Of course, there had been a
time when things had been different
and life had had a bright halo of
hope. That was when she had first

eling alone had been Aunt Trina's
bughear for years, but now as she
sallied forth with her brand new
trunk stuffed full of pretty clothes
and accessories, and above all with
the consciousness that she was
stylishly attired, her appearance at
tractive, she found the independence
delightful, each little experience
more exciting than a whole year of
her former life,
It was really wonderful how easy it
was to make all the arrangements for
tickets and berths, ete,, that before
she had thought to be a complicated,
nerve-racking afair, She was almost
gorry when the train reached Colo
rado, for she had gnet such delightful
people, had had so many interesting
conversations. .
One morning a few wecks later
Aunt Trina, dressed most becomingly
in a rose-colored sport suit, started
out on her usual daily tramp, Her
attendtion was arrested by the ap
pearance of a distinguished looking
gentleman, accompanied by a slender
little ludy. Ten years is a long time,
but Trina immediately recognized
Bert Weston. The lady must be hils
wife. She would have stepped be
hind a convenient tree had not Bert
Weston at once hurried to her with a
lively smile of recognition,
“Trina Evans! lls it possible that
this is Trina's daughter?” And all the
sweet old memories rofi in her heart
at the sound of his voice. “No, it's

title of colonel was not a military one,
although, as I have said, he had the
stature and earriage of a soldier. It
wWas purely a title of respect, a mark

his moral and business qualities. True,
it was a fechle mark of respect, and a

a few mlnut?ln’ friendly chat with sister
Jane. But she usually talked in a tone
of voice hardly lifted above a whisper,

recognize her voice, and she always
seemed to be in a hurry to run home
before any one had missed her. One
peculiarity she had was that she either
laid one hand on sister Jane's arm
while talking, or touched it lightly with
her forefinger whenever she desired to
emphasize a word. She had a beautiful
hand and wore some very large and
showy jewels on her fingers. She must,
have bheen a very beautiful girl, but now
there wus a weary ook in her eyes that
told either of invalidism or trouble; and
vet there was somelning about her that
suggested friskiness. Twas either a
trick of the mouth or a turn of the
hand. Whether from choice or no, she
lived a secluded life; but on rare oeeca
slons she was to be seen riding out in
the family carriage, and when the Meth

seen at c?}urch. thnugbh 1 have heard it

was never the same after that, She
was friendly, even cordial, but there
was a difference. We had no more
romips among the rose bughes; indeed,
it would have been unseemly for an
old fellow to be scen c:\gerinx around;
nevertheless I felt somewhat hurt at the
‘various manifestations of IndlffTrenuo
that the éoung lady took no pains to
conceal. Being sensitive and somewhat
difident where tne women ate con
cerned, T drew myself within my shell,
took “Urn Burial” from the book case
and mentally bade farewell to Ll;v chid
that -had given place to £ beautiful
voung gir! I
Then came a year or two at some fin
ishing achool in Philadelphia, and, be
bold! instead of the heautiful young !
girl who had gone away, there returned
to the village and her friends a more
beautiful young weman. To me, whose
memoty had been so steadfastly fixeq on
the girl, the woman was a daszzling
reveiation, A miracle had been rr
formed and nature bgd made no fuse
over it. 1 watched this young woman,
who had s}‘mmg from the germ of the
girl T had known, with emotions lmgos
aible to describe. Hut chief among them
all were astonishment and a bpwilder
ing sense of loss—a sense of having
been cheated out of some precious pos
session, Strange to say, this young
woman, who had returned to dazzle us
all, made no show of pride or affecia
tion. She was a 8 simple and as nat
ural as she had been when a litle girl;
she brought back with her none of
those airs that seem to stick, like cook
le-burrs on a sheep, to many young
ladies who have had the ndvrm&afen of
the finishing schools; and, withal, she
had a natural dignity of manner that
made a charming foll for her frank-‘
ness,
Her attitude toward me also under
went a kaleidosecopic cha.nfn. Where |
she had been cool and indifferent shol
was now friendly, and she discovered to
me by many pleasant allngtOns that she
had not forgotten the time when she
poured all her childish troubles in mi'
ear. But the day had passed when
found myself at ease in her presence,
and when she ran In te see sister Jane,
which she never failed to do at least
gnee a day, 1 was happy If 1
chanced to be In my room or in the
lttle porch, where, unembarrassed, [
might listen to the clear tones of her
voice and picture to myself each little
gesture she might be making; how she
was holding her head, and when she
was smiling. In her presence [ felt
awkward, old, and unhappy. She car
ried with her an atmosphere so entirely
different from that in which 1 had 4dl
wayvs moved-—she Imparted 8o much
light, and warmth, and color to our
dull and prosy surroundings—that [ was
always glad to return to the solituda
that gave me a world of my own, where,
as the humor chanced to seize me, 1
might be president, dictator, or emper
or, and where all the treasures of the

has praven a revelation to glass wearers, ¥ar and near vision
all in one solid glass-—absolutely invisible while on the face, no
disflguring lines to blister, blur or cause trouble. No more look
ing over your glasses or taking them off to see distant objects—
Just put them on just like you do your shoes and forget plasses.
Are all Kryptok glasses the same? No: the material only
from which they are made is patented, sold and guaranteed per
feet by the Kryptok Company, but after this material leaves their
factory they are not responsible for the grinding and finishing
of these glasses, which are finished up and sold by optieal houses
all over the country So, uniess the actual grinding and finishing
of these glasses is done by an expert, aiso your eyes carefully
fitted, your face correctly measured to correspond in every de
. tail, you will have trouble the same as buying the highest grade
watch made with some little something left out of it.
We have many thousand satisfied Kryptok wearers—we can
satisfy you.
