“Yes,”

said Miss Isidora Ives, “the | tower is

mine still, and I intend to keep it. Everything else they have taken away from me, because some | loggerheaded old ancestor of mine | signed name to a deed ‘John B.

Robinson’ instead of ‘John C. Robin- son.’ As if one letter of the alphabet could make any difference! I’ve no patience with people! The majesty of the law, indeed! Pshaw!”

“But if the rest of the property be- longs to your cousin Robinson so does the tower,” suggested Mrs. Milroy.

“I can’t help that,” said Miss Isidora. “Here 1 am, and here I mean to stay, lftw or no law.”

Mrs. Milroy opened her weak eyes. Feeble as a kitten herself, she could scarcely comprehend such valiant reso lution in another.

“But if they come here with the sheriff and a posse comitatus and a writ of habeas corpus?” she faltered.

“Then,” said Miss Isidora, “thby’ll have to clear ont again. Common sense is common sense. The heuse is mine, and | mean to keep it. I’ve got ' new bolts and bars to all the doors, ;} and I keep a kettle of boiling water on the stove night and day, and my friend, | Mr. Jeffreys, who Is a clerk in a law

office, has given me the hint never to let in a man with a bag.”

“Why not?’ breathlessly questioned Mrs. Milroy.

“But, of course, ma’am,” said Rebec: ca, “nobody. can stand against the law.”

“T’ll see whether they can or not!’ Miss Isidora Ives. “Be sure you keep the kettles well filled, Rebecca, and don’t let the fires go out, day or night.”

And whesever she received through

he mail a letter with a legal appear- unce, Gr ap envelope erested with the firm: address of Messrs. Tape & String: | ham, ber cousin Robinson’s lawyers, she invariably poked it between the bass of the grate and smiled vindictive- ly to see it blaze.

“\Wonat are we to do with such a case as this?’ said Mr. Tape, when he heard ail this.

“T'ut in a sheriff’s officer at once,” said Stringham. “The woman is a trespasser and has been all ber life.”

“No, no, 00!” said Mr. Tape blandly.

“She's a woman; no harsh measures. It is Gideon Robinson’s express injune- tion that all courtesy be shown to the defendant. We'll try something else be- fore we proceed to extremities.” And one pleasant October afternoon, when the air was all blue mist and the setting sun shone as if through a medi- um of opaque gold, the landlord of the Toplady Arms came puffing up the hill witb a stout, pleasant faced gentleman, and rang the bell, which echoed like a double chime through the tiny tower.

“Go away!” said Miss Isidora from ‘se window, spying the tops of two hats,

There is no sense in trying to dodge amy sort of trouble around a tree. The only way is to come squarely out and face the dif- ficulty and fight it. If you are sick or half sick, the best course is not to neg- lect or ignore it, or

retend that it Socen't exist, but to find the proper rem- edy and use it.

“Go away, I say!” sternly repeated Miss Isidora Ives. “Rebecca, bring in that kettle! I'll have you to understand that I am not to be trifled with.”

But by thjs time mine host of the Toplady Arms had simultaneously re- covered his breath and his presence of inind.

“Miss Ives.” he puffed stertorously. “don't be flustrated! It’s only Israel Jenkins.”

“Bless the man’s heart!” said Miss Isijora. “Why didn't be say so before? And what on earth did you want bere, Jenkins?”

“It’s a lodger, Miss Ives,” said Jen- kins, who bad married Miss Isidora’s old nurse, and somehow felt himself to be connected with the family.

“A—iodger?” repeated Miss Ives. “This isn’t a lodging house, man alive!”

“Yes’m—I’m quite aware of that,” said Israel meekly. “And where no offense is intended, it’s hoped as none will be took. But, knowing as you was alone and unproetected”—

“I don’t know what you call unpro- tected,” brusquely interrupted Miss Ives. “I’ve got a loaded gun and a six gallon kettle of boiling water here.”

“And,” mildly went on Israel Jen- kins, “this ‘ere gentleman, a Mr. Mar- shall of Alabama, wanted a pleasant lodging in the nefghborhood, which meals could be took at the Toplady Arms—though ow apartments is all oc-

cupied with the gentry as come to fish and shoot through October—and No- vember—and it might be a consolation to you, Miss Ives, to have a gentlemar about the premises.”

Mr. Marshall proved himself a quiet and peaceable member of the little household. He liked dogs, and allowed

Miss Ives’ King Charles spaniel to

sleep, undisturbed, amid the papers op

his table.

He was partial to birds and entered at once into the most friendly of alli- , ances with the parrot and the macaw. | He grafted Miss Isidora’s orange tree for her and showed her a new way to train her wax plants,

“I am, socially speaking; a fraud,” said the stranger, “a forgery.”

Miss Ives sat down on: the sefa im a helpless way and stared at:him

“But your sweet’ graciousness amd kimdmess have cemquered. me,” ad@ed Mr. Marshall.

“What do you mean?” said! Wiss [wes.

“Just this,” satd the stranger: “Lam here on false pretensess [ am your

“Ma’am,” vhispere@: the heartless maid, who turned absointels green on hearing the name ofthe fasily ememy,

“shall 1 bring: the kettle of boiling wa- :

ter?”

“Rebecca.” said Miss Ives. “hold your tongu@ and go out and teed the young turkeys. to manage this matter myself.’”

And Rebeeca, feeling herself put down, departed.

“] came here,” went on Mr. Robin son, “to leek into the fmets of the case. myself. I have Reard of your prejur dices against me”—

“Yes, 1 think so,” interposed Miss Ives.

“Andi, do not blame you for them,” said Mir. Robinsen. “Now that Ll am personally acquainted with you, Miss Ives, uothing eould induce me to pros- ecute this”—

“Imiguitous. elaim,” dora.

“Iiquitous elaim,” acceded Mr. Rob- inson, with a repetition of the swal- loaving sound. ‘Just what you please te call it. Ll respect you as a lady, but } appreciate you as a relative; but, ef course, knowing who I am, you can- not tolezate me any longer as your friend. 1 will pack my bag and de- part at once. I can only feel regretful that L have deceived you so long. I feel mayself to be a hypocrite and a swindler.”

He waited meekly to receive the full tide of Miss Isidora’s curbed wrath. She put out her plump little hand, with four dimples in the four joints.

“Don’t go!” she said in a low voice.

“What!” cried the incredulous plain- eff.

“There’s no reason why we shouldn’t be friends,” said Miss Ives in her odd, brusque way. “Things seem so very

“Isidora,” said Mr. Robinson, “we're cousins, you know, twice removed. Ik may call you Isidora?”’

“Oh, certainly,” said Miss Ives.

“We are the two last seeming heirs.”

“Plaintif€ and defendant,” nodded* Isidora.

“Exactly so. Now it’ has just oc- curred to me—I nrean, I’ve been think- ing of it for some time—that if we were to unite our claims’—

“To get married, do you mean?’ said Isidora bluntly.

“Yes, precisely. It would put an end litigation,” pleaded Marshall Robinson. “Would you be willing to marry me?” said Mr. Gideon Marshall Robinson.

“¥-yes!” said Isidora, “I think I should. I’m not young, but then six and thirty is not absolutely old.”

“You are a rose in full bloom,” said Mr. Robinson enthusiastically, “and I myself am not a mere boy, it must be remembered.”

“And if people should ‘laugh at us, why, we'll let them laugh,” said Isi- dora.

“And we'll laugh, too,” said the mid- dle aged lover cheerfully.

The fire was allowed to go down, the kettle cover taken off, the charges drawn from the gun and the tower pronounced to be no longer in a state of siege.

And this is the way im'which the famous case of Robinsorm'versus Ives, which Had promised to swell the fees of lawyers {innumerable for the next ten years, Was removed from the court of records. And no one was sorry ex-
