I'vc heard of money being made pretty quid on Wall street"-

“They’d get your hay in about twen-

ty minutes on Wall stneet,” responded Davidson decisively. "I know, because thats where I hang out. But nee here, Aslllar. I've got a little sporting blood in ray veins. and I've been under dog myself. BUDDOIO I help you down this tn'-penny banker?"

"Say, if you only would!" “Vary well. Let's have your nve hun-

dred. Therefs something on for tomor- row, nad maybe I can fclean up your littie pile for you during the excita- ment. An you willing to trust me and take the chance?"

Ashiara answer .was to draw, with

trembling ilngors, a bulky envelope from an inner pocket and pass it ever

to the broker, who tore it open and ` counted the contents dextsrously. There

was $500 in the package in well thumb- sdtena sndtwenties. 1

The broker stowed the money away

i and produced a bit of pasteboard. “Therein my address," he said, handing the card to Ashlsr. “You come to that number day after tomorrow at 10, and I’ll have some news for you.”

story of the iight for contnol was' a clever fake, which had allemly caught many small drms. It developed that the Silvers and the Hillmalm had long since some to an amicable agreement in regard to thai- “'I'hcn we’re‘ll_D°Ut 365.000," said Lucius Cole the morning after the skir- mish as he sat with his partner in their private odice.

“About $65,000# agreed Davidson,

“and if I hadn't got wise until a half hour later we'd have been down and out today.”

A clerk ushered ln Silas Ashlar. The

country youth was haggard with anxi- ety. ‘The morning paper says we were hit hard,'! he began. "ly mon-

e’|l__

“Your maney's all right." interrupted

Davidson. “l had your little old I2,- 000 salted before the balloon ascen- sion. Here's your check." He handed Ashlsr a slip of paper.

Silas for n few moments was dased

by the good news. Then he began to stammer -his thanks, but Davidson waved them aside. “Not a word, now, Silas. I want just two premises of you-that you'll never monkey with the Stock Exchange again and that yon will go home and lx up a wedding within two weeks. Do yon agree?"

There were tears in the young man's

eyes. "If Jeanie says the word we'll be married inside of twenty-four hours. This meaq shuts ber father up. I den't want any more Stock Exchange business either, you bot. I’ve bam toe worlhd he lest two days. God ‘bless you, Hr. Davithon. If yon over come to Hebron valley I’ll try to show. how mnch,you've done for us."

A dark lush mounted Cole's thick

neck and overspread his face as the grateful Ashlar left the edoe. "Are you crany, Davidson 7" he demanded angrily. "Whitt the devil 'did you give up that money for? 'I‘he foollhaysecd would have believed anything you told I him." Although meant as a sarcasm, a note of anxiety crept into his high, excited voice at the next question, “You aln’t turning honest, are you?"

There wns more bitterness than hu-

mor in Davidson'e smile as he replied: “It's a little late in the day for that, ien’t it? But I’ll tell you why I dldit, if you want to know. Did you ever stop to think why I wasn't married?" "Oh, a girl sway hack, probably." “Dead right, Lucius. Her folks

thought I dhIn’t have money emough, so they sold her od to s tight dated grub- ber with a few hundred dollars and a heart like s hickory nut. It'a her daughter Ashlar wants to marry. Her husband docsn't like him, and he put the same stumbling block up to the boy that was laid in my path-money.” | "Weil, I ain't kicking, am I?" snarled Cole, with a change of front which would have puszlcd any one but his partner.

“You're senior member of this Inn,

and you can make an ass of yourself if you want te. But while I was about it I'd have got the boy- more than a measly two thousand!" _

loshsrs Spenoor’s Painted Carpet. Herbert Spencer once had a carpet

which began to fads when it had only been down a few months. It consisted, or, rather, had consisted, ef clusters of blue flowers on a drabbish ground. Now, with the principal color gene, it had become far teo dull for the taste of thstlover of brightness. He there- fore conceived the unique idea of hav- ing each lower stamped over with red ink. For this purpose he invented a smsli tin tray, which was made so that it stood quite nat on the door to pro- vent any possibility of the ink being spilled or dropped' about. Bent in it were little wells about as hrge round and twice as thick as s hslfpenny. These depressions were iilled with the liquid. The sempstress-whom he was always glad of an excuse to employ because she was so hardworking and ao poor-was soon set to carry out his plan. Down on her knees she had to go, and as she was decidedly stout it was no light task. With a cork cut the exact size and dipped in ink sho press- ed ilrmly down on each lower, thus leaving it as if covered with red cher- ries. No wonder it took her over' a week. working all day, for the oarpet was from twenty-hve to thirty toot long and proportionately wide.-lar per's Magazine. .

dna of the vagaries of lemory. A child of American parents was

bom in pain, and, although the isa- gilage of the family was English, she learned to speak Spanish dueutiy. She then removed to America and went into a boarding school whore French wha the only language spoken. Of course, hearing no Spanish, the child gradually seemed to forget it. Her knowledge of French was perfect, and that she used as well as liingllsh. When she became an elderly lady her health failed her, and she sank into a condition of physical and mental weakness. After a time her attendants observed that she seemed-not to under- stnnd anything that -was spoken in English, but convened in French with case. At lest she lapsed into a long intervai of semlconsciousness, during which she understood nothing. During the lest days of her life she suddenly rallied, and her command of Spanish came back to her, so that she talked nuently in it and thoroughly under- stood it.
