~Year by year the task of determining

more diflicult. Many lines are sold for pure wool which have more or; less cotton in - them. So clever. indeed. are the imitations.

to disclose the presence of any foreign thread.

If directorial-had been less certain that the younger men of his set were altogether desirable and that they were 'in every ’way suitable for her to select a husband from, Miss Wesley would

have been better pleased and probably-

weuld neier have regretted looking so young. As it was the colonel. although his military bearing and iron gray hair attracted attention under all circum- stances, thought of his age and hesi- tated to ask the popular young woman to marry him. ‘

The incident at the Mabreys' dance convinced Miss Wesley that she had given plenw of opportunities. it ap- peared necessary that she give him not only epporfunlty, but a helping hand. 'nlll, she‘doclded‘. she’wu quite pre- pared to do. It only remained for her to decide the manner of its doing.

01: the night of the dance he had come nearer musterlng the necossary courage than ever before, but just at the moment when the ‘air became aim charged with sentiment young Dr. Howell had come to their corner of the library, and the colonel, with an almost imperceptible sigh, had said the young folks always had something to talk over and he would go get his sup- per and be OK to bed as an old man should. .

Miss Wesley felt a moisture in her eyes and decided, then and there, upon the virtue of the helping hand. There was only the question of when and how it should be administered.

The next week she announced her in- tention of going south to inspect some old family property that had been left to her six months before. All her life

she had heard of the old plantation, with its queer old mansion, and her childhood had reveled in tales of its an- cient ghosL' It was such a silly, use- less, mischievous’ ghost,‘ one that

during quiet midnight hours or thought it not unbecoming to ghostly dignity to take all the covers oil the bed on a cold night and leave one trembling with ter- ror and cold combined.

Miss Wesley went, therefore. with the avowed intention not only of in- specting the property. but of meeting the ghost she had inherited with it.

She took with her Dr. Howell’s box of candles, but aha were one of the colonal'a red mus in the bosom of her traveling gown. Celeste. her French maid. sat nosi- her. smiling as if there were something amusing to the atmos- phere.

Three weeks later Colonel Carr met Dr. Howell coming down the club steps.

“C ' ‘, have you heard of Minn Wesley’s terrible shock?” he asked.

The collnel stopped abruptly.

“Terrible shock? No! What's penedl" he demanded abruptly.

Howell told the story with what seemed to the anxious colonel unbear- able slowness.

it eeemed that Miss Wesley's coach- man. left iu‘town, had received a letter from his fiancee, Celeste, giving all the details of the mysterious aflair. Ac cording to Celeste's animated narrative. Kiss Weeley had seen the family ghost. and the shock in d been too much for. her. Her mia ' hair had turned snow white from thel’ahock.

"it is a strange phase of nature," said Dr. Howell. “And to think of such a beautiful woman experiencing the loss of that wol'derful head of brown hair!“ sympathetically. “They return to the citywthil afternoon. the eoacbman tells mor‘ be added.

The colonel rang the doorbell that evening. feeling ill at ease as to how he should tapro- bla sympathy for the woman he loved.

“You see. I am to be classed among the old folks henceforth, colonel.” she responded to the look in his eyes.

"I can’t ofler sympathy," he sold slowly. I "You bars more beautiful than ever." '
