‘I don’t wish to return to Anier-
ca this year,” said the girl who had
been abroad two.
‘Why?” asked the man, who had
not. It was stonily asked—or so
Sorrel thought A third little, white
pebble followed two others and
dropped, neatly aimed, into the
rippling bine of the lake. Sorrel
colored. Hardwicke saw the color,
though his glance %vas fixed on the
aproximate spot where the three
pebbles had been lost to view. He
had a way of seeing oat of the cor
ners of eyes directed .elsewhere.
Ho. now thought .that wave of color
very becoming. He was almost on
the point of saying so, but.he was
saved in lime by Sorrel herself
speaking.
“Because I want the cultivation
of another yeaivof travel and study
and—observation.” .
Hardwicke' stopped * throwing
pebbles into the lake. He leaned
back against the old stone wall,
drew his hat lower over bis brows,
and plunged his bauds into his
pockets. •
“What unmitigated bosh.”
This time he had certainly gone
too far. The giiT" started to ' her
feet on the grassy slope. The book
in her lap—a bulky volume—fell to
the ground. He couldsee thatshe
was trembling slightly, and she
held her head high. . Yes, she was
deeply offended. Hardwicke start
ed up, too.
“Oh, you must forgive me!” he
said. “But you cannot realize how
exasperating it is to a man, with a
man’s impulse in him, to think of
a girl like you mistaking so radi
cally the essential occasion Provi

what has come over the nice girls?
All bitten by the same mania.
Writers, they want to be, and ar
tists and - lecturers, and heaven
knows what Anything and every
thing but the one thing worth be
ing—a sweet wife.”
He had talked as he followed her
and the close of his harrangne was
addressed to her girlish back and
shoulders as they became engulfed
in the wide Swiss doorway. She
had not even vouchsafed a glance.
With a half laugh he retraced his
steps from the old inn to the vil
lage square overlooking the lake
undt-r its centaury chestnuts. The
higher peaks of the snow-clad
ranges were flashed with the sunset
Alp-glow.
“A precious, inspiring moment,”
said a voice behind Hardwicke. It
was Sntterell, the artist. With him
was Miss Ker, Sorrel’s, chaperon.
She smiled acidly upon Hardwicke.
Sutterell glared, but remained si
lent. Hardwicke and Miss .Ker ex
changed a few- commonplaces, if
aDy speech of Miss Ker’s could
thus be qualified. Then Hardwicke
had a perception that she appeared
to be lingering, Satterell, though
not delicately intuitive, appeared to
feel the same thing. He present
ly strolled off. Immediately Miss
Ker spoke.
“Yon asked Sorrel—Miss Fletch
er—to walk out with you this af
ternoon, Mr, Hardwicke?”
|l did, Miss Ker.”
“And if I am net wrong, it was
with the view—the intention —”
“Of urging her again to marry
me. You. are not wrong, my dear
Miss Ker. I know that yon feel
me an interloper. You have very
exalted views for Miss Fletcher.
But I think it a quite good enough
fate for any girl to be au honest
min’s wife. And so, as I love Miss
Fletcher, and as I consider myself
an honest mu:.', I must warn you
myself upon her and to discourage
her masculine ambitions?
A darkling flush mounted to the
spinster’s faded cheek.
“You are at lea9t frank, Mr.
Hardwicke. Whether you merit
other commendation^ I leave to
you. Miss Fletcher was a mental
ly unformed girl when I brought
her abroad, though a very gifted
one. She was an orphan; she had
no relative who could discover or
developsher great capabilities. I
did both. I am au ardent crusader
for glorious causes in which wo
men’s help is needed, but I recog
nize that we need young, fresh
spirits. Here is one ‘that T have
formed. You come abroad, just
for an idle summer; you see a face
that takes your fancy; you follow
us everywhere; you ridicule the
ideas dearest to Sorrel Fletcher’s
soul and mine, and you insist upon
her going back to America this
autumn in order to marry you.

“Mind what yon are about!”
Hardwicke cried two or three times
again to Sutterell, his voice biss-
what do we mean by over-trading?
If so, oar answer is, baying be
oc years:
“My dear Miss Ker, in love and
war all is fair, you know.”
“Then it shall be war!” cried
Miss Ker. “If marriage is to .be
brought forward at all for Sorrel,
let it be not with such a man as
you, careless of great subjects, but
.with such a one as this young ar
tist, tvith a soul full of beauty, who
stood here but a moment ago! At
least, with him, Sorrel’s higher
ideals will not be crashed into the
mire!” She trembled with excite
ment.
“Ab, Sutterell!” said Hardwicke
easily. “Well, lam willing to put
myself agaiust that beauty-lover,
Miss Ker, and see who comes out

And thus they parted.
“May I beg you especially not to
go for this sail to-day, Miss Fletcb-
er?”-said Hardwicke, a few days
later.
There had been a sail on the
lake proposed. The first sugges
tion had cofne from Sutterell. He
now glared fiercely at Hardwicke.
Sorrel threw up her little hand.
“I don’t see why you should
make any such request, Mr. Hard
wicke,” she said.
“For the best of reasons,” he an
swered placidly. “I believe a still
wind will blow up within two
hours and the waters of this lake
are notoriously dangerous in sud
den squalls. One must be able to
sail a boat as to the manor born,
and even then--”
Sorrel had walked on as if un
heeding, her head still in the air.
Miss Ker, though she had grown a
trifle pale, made a motion to follow.
“Perhaps yon are wrong about
the wind, Mr. Hardwicke,” she
said, her tones having regained,
spite of the declared enmity, au
acid urbanity. “It seems very still
now.”
“I certainly think Mr. Hard
wicke is wrong,” put iu Sutterell,
with a smile of the finest irony.
“We shall see,” remarked Hard
wicke.
“Are von going with us?” quer-
ried Sorrel, stopping short.
“Yes. You have no objection?”
“I thought yon might be afraid*”
said the youDg lady, putting aside
all her little poses of inspired fem
ininity, and speaking like the
schoolgirl, which she, in reality,
bad only recently, ceased to be.
And she smiled mueh as .Sutterell
bad done. Bat Hardwicke did not
appear to see the smile. It was as
suredly, as Miss Ker had remark
ed, very still now. And Satterell,
looking wonjanishly handsome in
semi-nautical attire, (did not know
how to sail a boat for all moderate
purposes. Miss Ker quoted poe
try now and then, and glanced at
him for sympathy. Sorrei, her
hands in her lap, the soft pings of
her wayward hair crisping under
the brim of her little sailor straw,
gazed out on the mountain shores,
and avoided looking at Hardwicke.
Hardwicke, smoking by the ladies
permission, looked at the horizon
now and then.
- At the end of an hour he made
a remark in an undertone to Sut
terell,
Sutterell glanced up and shrug
ged his shoulders. Hardwicke
seemed to insist, and Miss Ker,
glancing out from under her para
sol, became attentive.
A moment later a new expres
sion swept Sutterell’s face. His
well ent, but weak mouth drew i£-
ing through the roar'and whistle of
thhwind. But Sutterell seemed to
lose" his'jiead. His spray damped
face was blanched. His trembling
fingers had lost their canning, and
in the terrifying confnsion of the
moment his presence of mind for
sook him.
• Forsook him fatally. A fresh
blast struck them—the boat ca
reened.
There was a great cry from Miss
Ker—
And then Hardwicke was throw
ing out arms and legs in the green
water and dragging Sorrel up to
the surface of it.
“Hold for your life!” he shout
ed, and Sorrel clung to the bottom
of the boat, now floating an ob
long, unsteady balloon, upon the
waves. Miss Ker was clinging
there already, shrieking out pray
ers. Sorrel had made no sound.
By their side another sailboat was
hurrying to their rescue, tacking
as well as the wind would allow.
The men in it called to them to
hsld fast yet a moment, and then
Sutterell’s ghastly visage arose to
the surface and made a .vild clutch
for the boat. He caught Sorrel’s
shoulder instead.
“Let go!” cried Hardwicke. »But
Sutterell was past comprehension.
“Do you want to drown a woman
to save your carcass?”
But help was at baud. The oth
er boat was already alongside. It
was but three minutes since the
first had capsized. One minute
later the four drenched bodies had
been tnmsfered into the dry bot
tom of The second.
yond one’s ability to pay, and
A week afterward. The little
Swiss village still held its four
chance voyagers. Sntterell and
Miss Ker had both retreated for
several days to their beds in con
sequence of the nervous shock and
exposure. Satterell, indeed, was
still invisible, and Miss Ker, this
afternoon, taking advantage of the
prerogative of her years (though,
as she said that morniDg to Sorrel,
her prematurely'gray hair made her
seem much older than she really
was), had sought'his bedside with
the ministering graces of jelly
turned out by herown hand.
“Sorrel,” said Hardwicke, find
ing the girl -alone, “I insist upon a
definite answer. In a week I leave
for borne. Which is it to be? Your
so-called vocation, or—love?”
* •„ ;* % * * *
When the girl returned . to the
inn an hour later Miss Ker was
there and started up dramatically
at sight of her face.
“You have—”
’“Promised to marry Mr, Hard
wicke. Yes.” She was smiling
and weeping at once. “Forgive me,
Miss Ker! It is a great disappoint
ment, I know, but since that mo
ment in the boat—when we faced
death, and I knew how brave and
noble he was—I realized the whole
volume of love! I choose it—in
stead-of my vocation!”
“Ab!*’ said Miss Ker. She turn
ed her face away and said no more.
mb?
“Was it not odd?” confided
Sorrel to Hai'flwicke that evening.
“I thought she would take 'it so
differently.”
“Oh, the old lady knows what
she is about,” said Hardwicke, care
lessly,
Que week hefore they were to be
married—they had both been
home several months—Sorrel came
down, to meet Hftrdwigbe with a
flushed face.
“Miss Ker is to be married^ too.
Here is • her letter. She says she
has taken the step because she has
found a man who can help her in
her vocation and is capable of. ap
preciating its sacredness.”
‘A Tap at me. Well, and who is
the archangel?”

“Well _ done,” shouted Hard
wicke. “I always knew that milk

therefore baying much that could
be dispensed wiib; or to state it
differently, buying those things
that are not necessaries. This
over-trading grows out of nnsound
reasoning, or calculations founded
upon a contingent event which
may never happen.
Many a well-to-do individual be
gins the year’s operations with the
prospect of a fair income at the
close, as hd sees it, and hence he
goes into trading circles and bays
upon that prospect; bat tbe frnits
of that prospect fail to materialize,
and iu the winding up he finds out,
too late, that he has bought beyond
bis ability to pay, and hence finan
cial disaster is the reward of his la
bors. When these instances of
buying beyond ability to pay are
multiplied into hosts, as they pe
riodically are, then comes to
greater or less extent a financial
crash, and well nigh' all classes are
affected thereby. This, of necessi
ty, brings about what is generally
termed a drag in the business
world, an impairing of credit and a
general want of confidence; makes
iuterest high, causes money to flow
back and hug close to its secluded
haunts, and makes the avennes
thereto contracted and difficult to
travel.
How many thousands of people
all over this conn try,yea, how many
in our own county, brought npon
themselves financial disaster last
year by over-trading, by buying
things that were not necessities
and could have been dispensed
with. This is one of the results
that ulmost invariably follow a. se
ries of prosperous years. Judi
cious baying is the underlying se
cret of success, not only with farm
ers, but with all clnsses of people.
That man who prosecutes his voca
tion with vigor, and restricts his
purchases to real needs, seldom
meets with financial disaster. As
with an individual, so it is with a
people. Wero the purchases of the
people of this country daring last
year sifted of all save real needs
we doubt whether there would
have been heard amoug them the
cries of failure and of hard times,
notwithstanding the low price of
cotion. Indeed, we are sanguine
in our opinion that if the working
people of the country would, dur
ing the years of good crops and
fair prices,hedge against over-buy
ing as they are forced to do -in pe
riods of depression, there would, in
a very brief period of years, dawn
upon tbe people of the country
such a prosperity a? would aston
ish us all. There would be more
farmers and laboring men with
small deposits to their credit in
bank than was ever known in tbe
history of the country.
In periods or depression we do
guard against over-buying,and this
soon clears away the clouds of de
pression. And, if, as a people, we
persist through all periods, wheth
er of depression or prosperity, in
hedging against over-baying, who
will dare gainsay the assertion that
the s.qn of prosperity will continu
ally shine on. us?
We do not,and would not charge
that this is the sole cause that bur
dens the people, but we do main
tain that over-trading npon the
part of people generally, when the
signs are fair and the prospects
promising, tends largely to bring
about tbe financial depression and
disasters that overtake us every
few years. And ye further main
tain that a safe way to prevent the
periodical return of these disasters
is to persistently hedge against
overtrading at all times.
A Middle Georgia Land Company. RIDICULING THE GOVERNOR.
Atlanta Constitution.
Some of the more pablic spirit
ed citizens of Putnam county have
organized, or are about to organ
ize a company to be known as tbe
Middle Georgia Land Company. A
charter has been applied for, and
energy and intelligence. The pur
pose of those who are moving iu
tbe matter has been outlined to
the Eatonton Messenger by Mr.
John T. Dennis, a gentleman
remarkable business qualifications,
a gentleman who is perhaps the
originator of, as he certainly is the
prime mover in, the scheme.
It is the intention of the man
agers to secure subscriptions to tbe
value of $50,000, or more, in land
and money as capital stock. If
necessary,more land will be bought,
and this will be divided into farms
of 100 acres each. On each farm
a comfortable house will be built,
and other improvements made.
The intention is to sell these farms
to desirable settleVs on long time
and easy payments, thereby secur
ing industrious and thrifty immi
grants. Bat home people will not
be shat out from the benefits of
the scheme. Farmers who have
heretofore rented land, may, in a
reasonable length of time, own a
farm of their own, paying for it
an annual sum not exceeding the
amount of their rent notes. Thus
renters, who have been living from
hand to month and moving about
in the hope of bettering Eheir con
dition, will be enabled to secure
homes of their owu and pocket the
profits of their labor.
The.operations of the company
will not be confined to one county,
but will embrace several counties.
The result of the movement will
be to add largely to the number of
small farms, and give to the sec
tion,interested a large increase of
the while population. Incidental
ly, it will be the mfeans of settling
the labor question. In securing
immigrants, the new company will
have the active aid of Mr. W. L.
Glessner, who has scored consid
erable success in this direction. He
has already brought a large num
ber of home-seekers to Georgia
from tbe northwest, and has been
the means of inviting a great deal
of capital here for investment. *
Under all the circumstances, tbe
Middle Georgia Land Company
can hardly be called au experi
ment. Its purpose is so clear, and
its plan so simple and rational, that
it can hardly fail of success? We
trust that other sections of the
state will follow this example.
