POLLY LOPP.
BY OPIE READ. CHAPVER I—CONTINUED She raised her hands as if imploring him yeut them off, and he, looking down
not t were buttoned,
at his shirt to see if it \ showed his yellow teeth, and continued: “Yes you better keep in with me. Man triei to ran a paper here once without
keepin’ in with me, and what do you
reckon became of him?” :
“Went to the legislature, I suppose.
“Hah! Who told you? Dinged if he didn’t go there, but he left his paper dead as a padlock.”
“T haven't anything to hide,’ she said “and I don’t mind telling you thea having grown very tired of city life, I have some here torest awhile, but not belag able to rest without work I have decéfed @o lease this little paper and play with it.
“Talk ike a woman in a show, dinged if von dow’t. Not being able to rest with out work is a new one On me; but we will let that pass.”
“Just as well, I suppose. Yes, it is my purpose to live here a year, and then if! like the place well enough I may remain permanet tly oe ;
“Ah. bah,” said the old fellow, “that is to say, you mought git married and setth down here. Putty good plan, I reckon, for I hear’em say that marriage is about played out in the cities. I have seed bet ter lookin’ women than you air, but then, I reckon, you mought do ona pinch, and you never can tell jest how soon a pinch is goin’ to take place. My old woman has been dead ebout two year and I ‘lowed after while that I sought pick upa chunk of a wife, may do so this fall if my carn down here on the creek turns out well.”
“Your shirt collar is unbuttoned again,” she said.
“Blast me if I don’t go co the black- amith shop and git me a horseshoe nail jeat to accomodate you, Bo you are goin’ to run the newspaper. Never hearn ofa woman runnin’ a paper, but I have hearn of ‘em ridin’ straddle and I don’t see why a newspaper shouldn't come next.”
“By the way,” she said, J should like te find some pleasant place to board. I don’t care to stay at this hotel,”
“You are talkin’ sense, now, miss. Let me see; [live about a quarter of a mile from here—just an easy walk—and if you don’t mind you may board there. My daughter Nell lives with me, and you'd like her. Oh, she eats more books than a sheep do straw, always a chawin’ 'em, and you'd git along well together. She’s too smart for this town, and youand her could trot together right well. Well, I'll send her over to ses you. Irecken you are all right, leastwise you understand takin’ care of yourself. Good day.”
She arose and as he reached the door she called him.
“What is it, miss?”
“Nothing, only I hope that you will not forget te go by the blacksmith shop.”
The old inan puffed and tramped heavily dewn the stairs, and at the bottom he found Alf and the other fellows waiting

“YOUR SHIRT COLLAR
AGAIN.” forhim. “Don’t put yourself tono uneasi- ness on her account, gentlemen,” he said. “She can take care of herself, and if she can’t; I gad, I can take care of her or come mighty blame nigh it; but I reckon that expression is a littie too strong for a man that thinks as much of a revival as I de, and I ask the Lord to excuse me.”’
“Bat hold on and tell us somethin’ about her,’ Alf insisted.
“I don’t know a blessed thing about her except that she’s all right, and that’s all anybody need to know.”
Shortly afterward a young woman called at the hotel, introduced herself to the atranger and said that following the ad- vice of her father she had come to ask Miss Lopp te board with her. “‘We have a great, big old-fashioned house,” she said, and you may have all the room you want, so don’t say you won't, Will you please not say you won’t?"’
Tke visitor had taken a seat on the piano stool and not ungracefully was slowly turning berself half round and then back. She was acomely girlandit was evident that she was the belle of the neighborhood; and it was also evident that shecared no- thing for this distinction, that she had studied aud read herself beyond any com-

THE COMING COMET!
It is Expected to Strike and Sinash the Earth. {kat is if its Tail Doesn't Swing it Around in Another Direetion—Not Due for some lime Yet.
There is, according to the authori- ties, a comet coming straight for the earth. It is coming at the rate of sev- rral thousand miles an hour, and when it reaches here there will be more or less trouble, and something will hare to break. The astronomers in question think the earth will get a trifle the worst of it and are accordingly feeling anxious. It is due here unless somebody turns a switch, and sidetracks it, in less than nine hundred years, so no wonder the discoverers of that comet are anx- ious. But more things than a comet are due to arrive here before long. Witb the hot weather will come sickness and death. Spring, deadly spring, will reap its fearful harvest. There will come
Malaria,
Typhoid,
D'phtheria,
Bilious Complaints.
Biood Troub‘es,
Blotches and Boils.
Pimp'es and Eruptions,
Ague and Chil!s,
Rheumatism. —
And hundreds of other complaints com- tion to the season. There will be many n gap left at the table. Many a little coffin will be carried to its last resting place; many a home will be filled with sadness,

Seott’s Sarsaparilla is what you want. It is the greatest blood purifier and spring tonic of the age. There is nothing like it on the market. Don't confound it with other weak imitations. It is eas- ily the leading blood medicine of the day, as the splendid testimonials pub- lished elsewhere show. ‘Try it.

panionship that the village might offer, and that simply to be admired had long since grown tiresome to her. Miss Lopp never forgot that pleasing picture, the dark eyes half humorously pleading, the abundant hair caught up here and there as if by graceful and yet careless dips, the pleasing face and yet a countenance be- speaking strength of will—pbysical vigor and grace. [ “You must not say you won't,” the girl went on, giving Miss Lopp no time to an- swer, “until you know how much in need ofa sensible companion I am. Father-- and let me request yeu not to pay any attertion.to his strong expressions for he
isreally the best man you ever saw ~—well, he does everything he cau to lighten my loneliness, but he can’t do so very much, you know, being only a man, and Lam actually hungry for some one to talk to.’
“T don’t see how I can resist so strong an appeal,’ Miss Lopp replied.
“There, 1 knew. you couldn't say you wouldn't when you were brought t« understand it all. And we'd better gc now,” she added, springing off the stool “You shall have a large-front room, but it has a rag carpet, woven half sentimental] by a woman that livesvot far from here- by half sentimentally I mean that she thought so much of me she wove it fer half price. But youdon’t mind that, de your”
“What, the sentiment or the half price?"
“Why, the rag carpet, of course. I did not know but you might expect velvet on the floor.”
“My dear child,” said Miss Lopp. “it was not the thought of a carpet that brought me into this neighborhood, and to tell you the truth I don’t care whether the floor is covered with a rag or with saw- dast.”
“Oh, I just know that I shall like you, because yousre not stupid with evenness of talk and kiln-dried manners. So come on and we'll go over right now.”
And so Miss Lopp was installed in a Jarge room in an old-fashioned house. Her two front windows commanded the drowsy village, the town cow that looked as though she had been patched, having so often been scalded by irate housewives; the prowling hog, the sport of every dog that fouad himself without amusement, the hitching rack where farmers’ nags squeal- ed and bit at one another. But the two other windows looked upon a garden, rose- tinted here and there, the dark shade lying between rows of high peas, a tangle of plum bushes « long slope and a creek.
The office of the newspaper was found in a jumbled state, with black and light types mixed together, but with the assist-
“MISS POLLY, WHAT DO IT MEAN?”
ance of a boy who had long been an ap prentice, adecent order was brought about, and from the very first number the paper showed animprovement. The paragraphs were written with a vigor that made the villagers wink as though their eyes had lighted upon something too bright for them; and the editorials on national and international subjects were set forth with that dignity which the farmer demands that his editor shal! observe. A show of frankness soon wins the confidence ofa southern town, and Miss Lopp became so evident a favorite that within a month after her arrival her paper had picked up an additional circulation of fifty copies, a marvelous growth, a newspaper miracle in Broomfield. Nell soon learned to pick up type, and was therefore Polly’s closest and most valued companion, They were rarely seen apart; they strolled in the woods like lovers, and together they begged coatri- butions to the mite society. One afternoon, as @iey were going home to enjoy the cool of the garden, Nell, swinging Polly’s hand as they moved along, declared that she had never been so happy. “I feel that I am useful,” she said; “I feel that I am the dearest friend of a woman who knows something. And do you know what I have been thinking of? Ihave been thinking that we ought to make a vow never to separate. I told father the other night that I should never marry, and if you will take up the same resolution why we! will live together. There’s ‘the stage, and look, there are three passengers, men, and they are com- ing this way.” Polly made no reply, but, leaning for- ward, looked eagerly atthe men. They had been looking about them, but upon seeing her they came quickly forward, aad as they approached one of them called: “Hello, Polly!’ and then each one said: “Hello, Polly!” Several of the townspeople were within hearing, and they loitered near to see what might follow, Polly spoke tothe strangers, and then requested Nell to walk on, that she would overtake her. Nell hesitated. “Won't you please walk on?’ Polly in- sisted. ‘‘I’ll soon catch up with you.” Nell obeyed, though not without mut- tering an objection, and Polly stood in the road, talking to the strangers. What could itmean? Why were they so familiar with her and why should she desire to see them alone? They turned and slowly walked toward the stage coach, which was to go out again at once, to take passengers to the railway ten miles distant, and Polly talked to them in low tones and then they all nodded and smiled. Nell and the vil- lagers were watching them, and so was old man Aimes, and just as the three men had seated themselves in the coach, the old man, commanding the driver to wait a moment, walked up to the door and said: “Tam the mayor of this town.” “Sorry for you,” one of the men replied, “Well, by Satan’s hoofs, I like that, but excuse the expression fgr it’s the strongest T ever did use; but what do you mean by sneakin’ in here without lettin’ anybody know you was comin’ an’ sneakin’ out again without lettin’ anybody know why you did come? Now what have you got te say?’’ “Shut the door, old man. Tra Joo.”’ “Wait!” the old man commanded. “Who are you and what did you want with this young woman?”
“Go on, driver. So long,old top.” And off they went.
“Miss Polly,” said the old man, turning toward the editor, ‘“‘what do it mean?”
“Your shirt collar is unbuttoned again,” was all she said.
CHAPTER IL
That evening in the house of old man Aimes there was a silent supper party. Nell’s flowing friendship had been rudely checked and a sharp heel had been set upon the old man’s dignity. And it looked as though a coolness must neces- sarily follow. The strangers had brought a mystery with them and had left it in the village, and in this mystery stood Polly
Pp. Not a word had been spoken. Polly arose to leave the table. Nell looked up
and her countenance was sorrowful, not so much that there might be a compromis- ing mystery, but that it was kept dark from her.
“Goin’, Miss Polly” Aimes asked.
“Yes, I am. gh with my supper.”
“Bet wait a ent. Now there’s no need of foolishness between us; we are your friends and you ought to speak out. Them men comin’ here and bein’ so famil- tar like with you will cause a scandal, and it’s far me to determine as the mayor of this town whether or not I can stand by you. But first you must tell me—never mind about my shirt bein’ unbuttoned and all that sort of thing—you must tell
me somethin’ about them men. Now will
—e
—no, It ain't, Where aid vou Kuuw opener “I might have met them in a city. * “Hah, what’s that? Might have met
them ina city, but why? That’s what I want to know. Didn’t you hear one of them refer to me as ‘old top,’ and I’ve been ten years mayor of this town? Hah, didn’t you hear that? And why, then, should you have met them in a city, or an ywhere else?”
“When I probably met them years ago perhaps I was not aware that they were going to refer to you as ‘old top.’”’
Nell laughed, and the old man seratched his head, ‘Well, now, we'll say that you couldn’t help meeting them,’’ he went on, but we can’t say that you had to become so well acquainted with them as to let them call you Polly. I gad, I don’t call you Polly, and I’m the mayor of this town and have been for (en years this comin’ July, I gad. Hope the Lord will in the meantime excuse both I gads. Hah, now answer me that, will you?”
“All that you need to know, Mr. Aimes, you shall know ir time.”
“Hah, intime? But what will the peo ple of this town think when they come to me to find out and I put them off with your sayin’ that they shall know in time? I gad, miss, when the people of this town want to know a thing there ajn’t no sich thing as time--the whole scheme is an eternity until they find out, and unless they find out before the next election I’m beaten assure as a horn, and I've been mayor so long now that I can’t quit. Set down here now and tell us, won't you?”
“Not this evening. Nell, ['m going out into the garden.”
Polly was sitting in the summer house when Nell joined her. They were silent for atime and then Nell said: ‘Iam so sorry that anything should have happened. Iwas ashappy as I could be until then. Tell me, dear, what it all means, and I'll promise to stand by you, no matter what it is, for Ido think so much of you, J do, Pol'y, I love you, in fact, and now It does grieve me so to have anything come be- tween us.”
Poily took her hand and, hoiding it, replied: “There are many features of life in a city, and same of them wight seem strange toyou. That should haye be- come acquainted with those men was a happening; that they should have come to this place is another happening, and neither happening amounts to enough to cause any real uneasiness on the part of my friends. Sq ] beg of you not to let it worry you.!’
“Oh, it doesn't worry me so far as I am concerned, but what will the people say? Indeed, what won't they say?”
“Nell, the view and the opinion af a vil- lage are necessarily narrow; here people are suspicious of strangers and are ¢ver on the logkout for an ppportynity to suspect one another, so it would be quite impossi- ble for me to make an Saplanallon that would be satisfactory to them,"
“Bat, my dear Polly, you can make an explanation that will be satisfactory to me.’’
“Nut now, my dear, but after awhile I will. Your father is calling you.”
The old man stood at the garden gate, whooping the name of his daughter, and when'shg had pqmg tq him, having left
Polly sitting og a bench in the simrey house, the old fellow said; ‘Nell, ga into the house and stay there till I come, aud when 1 dogome I may haye some mighty interestin’ news for vou."
