The only person In town who knows all of our klnology and most of that In the county, where It Is a separate and Interminable study Is "Avnt" She has lived Martha Merryfleld, here since the early fifties, and wns n Ierklns, one of the eleven Ierktns children that grew up In town; and the Perkinses were related by mnr-rlag- e to Ihe Mortons, of whom there are over fifty living adult descendants on the town-sit- e now. So one begins to see why she Is called Aunt Martha Rlcrryflcld. She Is literally aunt to over a hundred people here. She lives alone la the big brick bouse on the hill, though her children and grandchildren ure In and out ull day and must of the night, so Unit she is not at all lonesome. She Is the only person to whom we can look for accurate Information about local history, and when a man dies who has been at ail prominent In affairs of the town or county or state, we always call up Aunt Martha on tne phone, or send a reporter to her, to learn the real printable and unprintable truth about him. Aunt Martha used to bring us flowers for the office tuhle, and it wns her delight to sit down und tube out us she culled it and her go after the town slmms. She has promised a dor.cn times to write an article for the paper, which she says we are not to print, entitled "Self-Mad- e Women I Have Known." She Bays that men were always bragging about how they had clerked, worked on farms, dug ditches and whacked mules across the plains before the rallronds came; but that their wives Insisted thnt they were priucesses of tho royal blood. corn-knif- l; r ?; i. i i I good-enoug- ft, ebe flashed out: "Oh, child, you needn't look at me I did both; It depended on who was looking But, as 1 was saying.

She came to one showing a must ached and goateed youth In a captain's uniform a slim, straight, " soldierly figure.

She sighed us she said: Let me see, I guess I havent happened to run across Jim for ten years or mor but he didn't look much like this then. Poor old Jim, they tell me hes not having the best time In the world. d Miss Larrabee came down the walk from the stately old brick house, carrying a great bouquet of sweet peas and nasturtiums and popples and phlox, a fleeting memory of some association she had In her mind of Uncle Jimmy Purdy and Aunt Martha kept tantalizing her. She could not get It out of the background of her consciousness, and yet it refused to form Itself Into a tanassociated gible conception. It vaguely with her own grandmother, as though, infinite ages ago, her grandmother had said something that had lodged In the girl's head. When the occasion made Itself, Miss Larrabee asked her grandmother the question that puzzled her, and learned that Martha Perkins and Jim Purdy were lovers before the wur, and that she was wearing his ring when he went away thinking he would be back in a few weeks with the Civil war ended. In his first fight he was shot In the head and was In the hospital for a year, demented; when he was put back In the ranks he was captured and his name given out among the killed. In prison his dementia returned and he stayed there two years. Then for a year after his exchange he followed the Union army like a dumb creature, and not until two years after the close of the war did the poor fellow drift home again, as one from the dead all uncertain of the past and unfitted for lilac-bordere- s the future. And his sweetheart drank her cup alone. The old settlers say thnt she never flinched nor shrank, but for e Iler particular animosity In the town Is Mrs'. Julia Nop I Worthington. Aunt Martha told us that when Tim Neal came to town he had a brogue you could scrape with a knife and un 0 before his name you could hoop a hogshead with. And that woman." exclaimed Aunt Martha, when she was under full sail, "that woman, because she hus two bookcases in the front room and rends the hook reviews In the Delineator, thinks that she Is cultured. When her folks first came to town they were ns poor us Jolts turkey, which was not to their discredit everyone was poor In those days. The old man Neal wus ns honest an old Mick as you'd meet In a days Journey, or at a fair, and he used to run a lemonade and peanut stand dowu by the bunk corner.

Aunt Martha would say through t beatific smile, "she's s woman In many ways, and I wouldn't any anything ugulnst her for (lie world. Once Miss Larrahee, the society reporter, brought back this from a visit to Aunt Martha: "I know,, my dear, that your paper says there are no cliques and crowds In society in this town, and that it Is so democratic. But you and I know the truth. We know about society in this town. We know tlmt If there ever was a town thnt looked like a side of bacon streak of lean and streak of fat alt the way down it Is t his blessed place. Crowds? why. I've lived here over fifty years and It was always crowds. 'Way hack In the days when the boys toed to pick us up and carry os across Lira Creek when we went to dances, there were crowds. The gills who crossed on the hoys backs weren't considered quite proper by the girls who were carried over In the boys' arms. And they didn't dance In the same set." Miss I.arrahee says she looked Into the elder woman's eyes to find which crowd Aunt Martha belonged to, when 1 calls the Amalgamated haodholders. to the trundle-be- d trash Just out of their kissing games. It's funny to watch the little tads grow up and pair off and see how bravely they try to keep in the swim.

Then they dont get out to the dances much, but they Join a card club." In her dissertation on the social progress of young married people. Aunt Martha explained that after the second year the couple go only to the big dances where everyone is invited, but they pay more attention to cards. The young mother begins going to afternoon parties, and has the other young married couples in for dinner. Then, before they know it, they are Invited out to receptions and parties, where little tads preside at the punch-howl- s and wait on table, and are seen and not heard. Aunt Martha continued : By the time the second baby comes they take one of two shoots either go in for church socials or edge Into a whist club. Aunt Marthas eyes danced with the mischief In her heart as she went on : Now, If after the second baby comes, the young parents begin to feel like saving money, and being someone at the bank, they Join the church and go in for church socials, which dou't tuke so much time or money as the whist clubs and receptions. The babies keep corning and the young people keep on Improving their home, moving from the little house to the big house; the young mans name begins to creep Into lists of directors at the bank, und they nre invited out to the big parties, and she goes to all the stnnd-uand receptions. AS they grow older, they are asked with the preachrra and widows for the first night of a series of parties at a house to get them out of the way and over with before the young folks come later in the week.

Mrs. Winthrop got off the truln quite grandly and bowed and waved her hand to the bund, and the Judge walked over and gave the band lender five dollars. They said afterward that they felt deeply touched to find a raw western town so appreciative of the coming of nu old New England family, that It greeted them with a hand. Before Mrs. Winthrop had been here three weeks she called on me, as one of the first ladies of the town, she said, to organize and see if we couldnt break up the habit of the hired girls eating at the table with the family." The talk drifted back to the old days, and Aunt Martha got out and showed Miss Larrabee tiie pictures of those whom she called the rude forefathers of the village," in their quaint old costumes of In the book were men and bnby pictures of middle-age- d women, and youthful pictures of the old men and women of the town.
