Cissy Was a Child, but She Hada Remarkable Aptitude For Trade, The tall young man at the desk by the big window looked up with a start. There was something strangely famil- ilar about the little figure in the door- way. He arose hurriedly from his chair. “Why, It’s Cissy!” he cried and step- ped forward. The child’s figure sway- ed toward him, and he caught it in his arms, “George Henderson,” a tired little voice panted, “why don’t you live up to heaven and be done with it?’ “What is it, Cissy?” cried the young man as he placed the child in the great padded chair in the corner and unfas- tened her big hat and anxiously looked her over. “It’s these George,” I'm all right. my breath.” “Gracious, Cissy, did you walk up?” The tired head weakly nodded. She was a slender girl of perhaps a dozen years. Her features were prom- inent, her eyes keen, her chin aggres- sive. Her light hair was brushed tight- ly back from her faee, and this em- phasized the sharpness of her features and her look.

While I was reading it he runned the elevator up. You know the sign. It’s the one that says, ‘No book agents, peddlers or dogs allowed in this build- ing.’ I read it and walked up.” “But I don’t see’— began the puzzled young man. “George Henderson,” cried the girl, “don’t you look at me as if you thought I took myself fora dog!

Kindergarten words is good enough for me. I'm a book agent ’cause dad put it in my head. At the table yesterday he got mad at me and said I had brass enough for a book agent. ‘Do you think I'd make a good book agent, dad? says I. ‘It’s just what you're fitted for,’ he growled. And so this noon I picked two books of mine from the big bookcase and start- ed out.” “See here, Cissy Jayne.” cried the young map, “you don’t mean to say that you came all the way down town alone? How did you do it?” “With a nickel and a transfer,” gig- gled the child. “And your father, and—and Miss Ethel don’t know where you are?” “No, they don’t.” “I'll telephone to them at once,” said the young man, as he turned toward the phone. “Don't do it,” cried the child. “Papa Jayne is down town at his office and of course hasn’t missed me, and Sister Ethel is out to luncheon with Mame Oliver and she won’t miss me until she comes back. And now let me ask your ‘tention to these nice books. They are very choice. One is ‘Little Women,’ by the author of ‘Little Men,’ and the other is ‘Little Men,’ by the same author. They are nice, morul books. There are pitchoors in them. Lemme put down your name for both.” “Good,” cried George Henderson; “very good. Your fatherwas quite right.

Besides, Cissy, you know the elevator boy can’t keep you out if jou haven’t the books with you.” “All right, George. I'll trust you.” “And now, Cissy, what have you to siy to me about Ethel?’ But the child had perched herself on the broad window sill, looking down on the Public square, and was softly hum- ming, “Hello, My Baby.” She paid no attention to George’s inquiry. George looked at her curiously. “Cissy.” he said, “how would you like a heaping plate of ice cream?” The child nodded, but did not cease her tune. George smiled and glanced at his watch. “Cissy,” he said, “what do you say to getting the heaping plate of ice cream and then going over to the matinee of ‘Jack and the Beanstalk? ” Cissy looked around quickly. “Honest?” she cried. George nodded. She sprang from the window sill “You're a darling,” she murmured, and snatched up her hat. “Plenty of time,” said George. “You were going to tell me something, you know.” “Yes,” assented Cissy, “I know. about Ethel.” “It’s about Ethel,” softly repeated George. “Well,” said Cissy, “she ain’t been happy a minute since you quarreled with her.” “I didn’t quarrel with her,” protest- ed George. “Well, I heard some of it,”’ said Cis- sy, “and even if Ethel is my sister I don’t think you ought to put all the blame on her. She felt awful bad about it. I slept with her that night, *cause Aunt Laura came to see us, and I heard her crying.

Say, what was it you quarreled about—Annie Pleas- anton?” “I believe her name was mentioned,” said George. “Somebody told Ethel that they saw you and Annie riding together in the park, didn’t they?” “T believe so,” admitted George. “Yes,” said Cissy calmly. “That was me.” “You told her that?” cried George. “Yes,” said Cissy sweetly, “I told her. She wouldn’t let me wear her second best hat.” George looked black for a moment, then his face cleared. He turned abruptly and stepped to the phone. “E. 7,301 L,” he called. “Knows it by heart,” Cissy. “Is Miss Ethel there?’ inquired George. “Yes, I wish to speak to her.” “George,” cried Cissy, “don’t you forget that the girl at the exchange is listening to every word you say.” “Is that you, Ethel?’ inquired George at the phone. “Yes, it’s George.
