i "You must know that a sad, dreamy
leyed type requires finesse and arc-
Is.irt to romantic methods to win. You
■don't know how to do it, that is all.
■Now watch me!"
| This speech had been preceded by
lan ejaculation made by the younger of
Itba two men, sitting at an adjacent.
■ desk in the pleasant office.
^/-Partners In a business that seemed
■o give them plenty of spare time for
"allying oven in business hours, their
favorite “indoor sport” being yiild flir
tations with those females who had
become wise as to the depth of their
intention and consequently rather
lame pastime, It was with strenuous
efforts they tried to capture the at
tention of any stranger or newcomer
to their floor.
Innocent, possibly In Intent, but nev
ertheless trivial and somewhat cheap,
so thought a recent arrival in the next
room —a • sad, dreamy-eyed, well-pre
served woman of mature years, who
had opened a millinery shop next door.
The. yyunger man had tried every
means to become acquainted, but'be
yond a cool smile, nod, or passing
greeting, he had made absolutely no
headway.
So the elder man took a hand in
this flippant pastime of capturing a
passing fancy, and he tried the ro
mantic, mysterious way, that his su
perior (?) wisdom mapped out.
A rosebud through her letter slot
greeted her in the morning; a blank
vgrd, sometimes. A box of flowers de
livered late In the afternoon, from a
mysterious source. He had the satis
faction of seeing his flowers in wa
ter in a place of honor; but lie did not
know that the woman had heard that
tliat was a habitual custom of his to
try to soften the heart of the fair sex
with the touching presentation of a
flower, and she had no delusions as
from whence these sudden attentions
proceeded. 4
So it was an Inwardly-amused wom
an who set the flowers where he could
see, but no hint of her amusement
looked from her sad eyes as they cas
ually met In the hall. Her bow and
greeting were, if anything, cooler.
Then one day a tall, blond man,
somewhat younger than the woman,
came along the hall. His step was
faltering and there was a strange,
groping movement in his hands, yet
he went straight to the door marked
“Maison, Hatter." where a cry of rap
' ture 'greeted him. The door was
quickly closed and only a continuous
joyous murmur could be heard.
The shop was closed for the remain
der of the day, and together they were
lost to sight.
Though silent, uncommunicative and
aloof in the time of trouble, hiding,
Spartan-like, her exquisite torture of
uncertainty through a most grilling
ordeal; In the glow of this most cer
tain joy the woman expanded and had
to give out of her happiness and re
lief from a corroding anxiety.*
So the news spread like wildfire
through the building, for human na
ture,, prone to gossip, is the same in
an office building as elsewhere. ,
“Yes, my baby brother; we are all
that is left of the family; was In
France,” she told a neighbor. “Had
suffered a peculiar affliction; was
■struck totally blind while in action.
Nothing could be done to relieve him.
He was examined by noted specialists
who diagnosed the case as .paralysß
of the optic nerve resulting from
shock.
"Sometime he might regain sight,
-but they held out no certainty of
hope.
“Oh, yes, a remarkable cure.
Through the treatment of a noted
psychologist, Dr. he had regained
h's sight, misty at first, but dail ,
growing stronger.”
On hearing this “the man next,
- door,” under his apparent lightness j
being a 100 per cent American, flushed I
a dark red from shame, but grew pale i
a moment after as a sudden realiza
tion that he loved this woman as a
man loves only one woman in a life
rhne. that his careless pursuit had led
him into deep waters of emotion, and ,
ihat bls feeling now was akin to wor
ship for this brave soul who so pa
tlently had borne her sorrow In si
lence for so long.
Late In the afternoon next day
he called at the hatter’s and pleaded
his. suit. She laughed at - first. The
sad, dreamy eyes were sad no longer,
but dancing wells of joy. But as she
saw the man’s depth of emotion she
grew serious.
“I am sorry ; but you see next month '
I am going to marry the psychologist
who restored my brother's sight!”
A Humorous Speculator.
A speculator on the stock exchange i
was sitting In a friend’s office and dur- j
ing the conversation, which was
mostly about stocks and bonds, he in
formed his friend tliat he had picked ,
up a cheap thing during the winter.
“ft stood at thirty-three then, and
yesterday It touched eighty-four!” he
said.
“By Jove! You are lucky. What
is it?' asked his friend.
“A thermometer,” was the reply—
Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.
Studying Effect.
“Have you read the latest novel?”
“No,” answered Miss Cayenne.
“Everybody is talking about it."
-“■That is why I tike to say I haven't
read it. It makes me seem so un
usual.”

TO SEND CAR TO THE
ORPHAN'S HOME
AT HAPEVILLE.
I wish to call the attention
of the public to the fact that
the time is slowly, but surely
drawing near when we are to
load a car of provisions for the
Hapeville Orphan's Home.
At our Associational meet
ing 1 happened to be appointed
a committee to look after load
ing such a car at this place
and am taking time by the
forelock to notify the public
not to wait until the Fourth
Monday in November to bring
your gifts, but start haw, as
I will provide ample storage un
till loading time. It was my
privilege to visit the Home re
cently and the matron of the
Hospital told me that they
had plenty of quilts for the
winter, but could use anything
else.
So you can bring any thing
from a turn of splinter light
wood to a barrel of syrup—any
thing that a child, a cow, mule
or hog can eat. Corn, hay.
peas, potatoes, syrup, meal,
meat, lightwood, sheets: pil
low cases, blankets, etc. They
particularly need potatoes and
I would be nice to bring some
sugar-cane. Those kids like
it just the same as yours. And
if you little girls want to do
a good turn why not send your
second best dolly for some
little girl up there, who has
none and those of you who
have a good book to spare,
stories on out-door life for
boys and girls, and nice clean
stories for girls will be appre
ciated
There's no excuse. Every- !
body can giv something. Start
now and bring it in.
Yours for service,
