ed. "Now, I’ll put you out of the office—
and throw you out of the plant—and drive
you out of the town if I hear any more
red fire talk out of you. I suppose you've
been gabbing so much you've got them
all excited over nothing. The trust Isn’t
going to buy this plant. It isn’t for sale,
and you go and tell the men I said so.”
Twirling his hat in his hands Higgins
humbly apologized to Josie. Then he ex
claimed:
“I 11 tell the boys what you say, Mr.
Jones. What a relief it will be to them
all. It's made a different man out of me
already.” >
Tears were in Higgins’ eyes and began
to roll down his cheeks.
“Well, what are you crying about?”
asked Jones, gruffly but kindly at heart.
"Because I’m .happy. It’s the first time
I ve been happy in twenty years." blub
bered Higgins, and went out the door.
Broadway grinned.
“Can you beat that?” said he. “He
cries when he's happy. I wonder when
he laughs. He’s a nice, cheerful little
party. I'd like to he around him a whole
lot."
"Did you have st good night’s rest?"
asked the girl.
\\ ith a groan Broadway replied:
My back is broken. Who named that
hotel the. Grand ? There are men in
prison for doing less than running a hotel
like that.”
Broadway grew bolder as he found that
the girl's eyes did not produce that dazed
state of mind and heart in which he had
spent the latter part of the previous even
ing. Now there seemed in her face noth
ing hostile, nothing bitter, only a real
friendliness and a desire to be helpful.
After a time Josie asked quietly:
"Have you thought of what we talked
over last night?”
Broadway laughed.
"Have I thought of it?” he returned.
Then, becoming grave in a moment, “All
I dreamed about was poverty-stricken
families crying out for food. Thousands
of men. women and children passed me
through the streets, out of the town and
into a wild forest where there were noth
ing but chewing gum trees. I could
have slept this morning, but the, Elks
started to rehearse for their minstrel
show in the parlor; so I got up and or
dered breakfast. Oh, a breakfast at the
Grand'"
Josie laughed and offered the new
owner her financial statement. He didn’t
want It, he said, as Wallace had prom
ised to look after that part of the busi
ness. Wallace would be in very shortly,
but he had gone to the barber shop.
"Thank heaven. I shave myself," con
cluded Broadway.
The girl asked about the presence In
the town of Pembroke, and Broadway
explained that Wallace had given him
until 11 o'clock and had named a price
of a million and a half.
Almost the old look came into the
girl's eyes.
"But you sent word to the men—”
she began.
Broadway reassured her:
“Don't you be afraid, 1 meant just
what I said to Higgins. I don’t mind
telling you when I came here yesterday
my Intention was to sell this business
and get it off my hands at any price or
sacrifice, but Carnegie couldn’t buy it
this morning if he offered me every dol
lar he’s got In the world. Wallace and
I sat up talking about it till 2 In the
morning. I told him all you said, and
you've convinced not only me but Wal
lace. too, and he’s -some business man.
He thinks with you—and me—” Broad
way almost blushed at this juxtaposition
of the two personal pronouns—"that the
right thing for me to do is to stick right
here and put up a fight for these people
the same as my uncle did."
. There was a warmth of feeling in
Josie's lbw tone as she said:
SHE SMILES.
“I knew you would, Mr. Jones.”
And then she smiled. Broadway was
almost dumfounded. Her smile of the
previous evening had droused a very
definite remorse in him. Now it seemed
a different smile—a promise that the
girl would believe in him, did believe in
him, and at the same time an intima
tion that she felt that he was acting
solely front his own better nature, with
out outside pressure of any sort. But
it was not entirely the effect of that
new smtlle that made Broadway stam
mer and hesitate as he floundered on:
“I don’t know anything about busi
ness —and I don't know anything—l
never did a day's work in my life, for
the simple reason that I never had to.
The only thing that I’ve entered into
in the last five years is a contest to see
w;ho could stay up the latest. I never
did anything good, because I never had
anything good to do. What I've needed
all along was a—what I’ve needed was— ’’
Broadway was now frantically fumbling
at one of the side pockets of his cdlit,
the pocket which bulged out a little.
“What I've needed all along was an in
centive-something to spur me on—to
force me tev a realization that an in
centive was needed to bring about a
realization that an incentive would rea
lize —” Josie was now watching him in
wonder, for. it Was apparent that em
barrassment had not caused this strange
wallowing verbally. "I’ve needed"
Broadway stopped abruptly, then added:
"What the duce have I needed? Can you
beat that! I knew that thing by heart
when 1 left the hotel. Won’t you read
the rest of it?”
And he threw upon the table before
the girl the paper which he had been
struggling to draw from his pocket.
For a moment both laughed, and then
suddenly the girl's face became grave
as she realized Broadway's anxiety to
make an Impression upon her had gone
so far that he had committed ft to mem
ory. She blushed, and then put the
thought from her.
"It took me three hours to write that
thing.” said Broadway, who apparently
did not realize what his act had signified,
“and I knew I'd forget it.”
Then a moment later he himself blushed.
He was still staring at the girl, and the
Imperious eyes of the night before had
dropperl under his gaze when a tremen
dous burst of cheering came from the
plant. The man and the girl stared
guiltily, as though the men outside had
surmised what was passing through the
minds of these two and were showing a
strong liking for It •
GOOD NEWS.
Before either of the young people had
fully recovered their accustomed mental
states the door was fiung open and Judge
Spotswood, who had come down to the
plant with his wife and Clara, entered.
He was followed by his wife and daugh
ter.
"Great Scott!" exclaimed the judge.
"Talk about excitement! The whole
plant's in an uproar!"

Beauty and Personal Magnetism Make Elsie Fergu-
By Margaret Hubbard Ayer.
WHEN a girl is asked whether
she’d rather be beautiful or
have a magnetic personality,
unless she’s under sixteen or a perfect
gump, she decides at o«tce for the mag
netic personality.
The combination of both beauty and
personal magnetism with brains added,
spells feminine genius.
Nobody will deny that Miss Elsie
Ferguson has beauty, brains and per
sonal magnetism, and as we all hope
and believe that the first of these can
be had for work or rnjiiey, I asked her
to say whether it was possible to attain
the quality that we call "magnetic,” the
thing that draws us instinctively and
unconsciously to another's personality.
“Is it possible to define what mag
netism is?” said Miss Ferguson. "The
thing that attracts us to other women
is their personal charm, and no one has
given a better description of charm, that
most illusive quality, than Barrie in
‘What Every .Woman Knows.’ ‘Charm
is the/bloom ort a woman,’ he says.
When They Fail.
"Many people deliberately try to be
magnetic, to fascinate or attract. Girls
and young society women often make a
stupendous effort at exerting this pow
er. and it would seetn as if the more
effort they make the less result they
obtain.
"The noticeable effort that is made to
attract another person Instead of show
ing real personal magnetism generally
Irritates or confuses the person who is
to be attracted.
"There can be nothing forced or arti
ficial about the magnetic person.
"Some people have defined personal
magnetism as perfect health, but 1
should say that was vitality rather than
magnetism. Vitality attracts one un
less it is too overpowering. You have
seen persons with tremendous health
and strength who give of these quali
ties to every one about them, and oth
ers with the same characteristics who
take the vitality from other people and
almost sap the air of its life-giving
qualities.
“I should say that personal magnet
ism was a kind of an electric current
through which the person gives to oth
ers the best of his mental and spiritual
powers.
"If you have no reserve fund of your
own, nothing in your heart or brain
that is worth giving, the electric cur
rent is useless and no matter bow
strong the person’s vitality, there is ne
real magnetism there.
Without Effort.
"The magnetic person gives and gives
of herself or of himself, but w ithout ef
fort, or at least without noticeable ef
fort, though as in the case of an act
ress, for Instance, there is a conscious
endeavor to charm an audience by
sending along those electric currents,
the very best one has to give."
; "Rather exhausting, I should think,"
said the writer, as she looked at Miss
Ferguson's slender, almost delicffte
physique, the small oval face, with the
earnest far-seeking blue eyes, shaded
by a mask of reddish-blonde hair, care
lessly twisted up in a big knot. Miss
Ferguson had come in from a long re
hearsal, and dad in a black tea gown;
that accentuated her youth and ethe-

the corner of a huge sofa.
"Indeed, it’s terribly exhausting,” as

HAVING read, and heard in lec

has no use for a drone, Daysey
Alayme Appleton decided to quit the
butterfly life she was leading.
She would become an ant, that being
the insect emblem of industry. She
would get a position as clerk in a
department store and Study Human
Nature. (Daysey Mayme laways uses
capitals in Studying Human Nature.)
She got a position in the linen de
partment, and her first customer asked
for napkins.
Daysey Mayme showed her stock,
trying' her best to entertain as she dis
played the goods.
"At my home," she said, “our nap
kins are so large that when the neigh
bors borrow them, we find out after
ward that they use them for table
cloths."
The woman didn't buy.
"Perhaps,” thought Daysey Mayme.
"I wasn’t cordial enough.”
A few minutes later another shopper
asked for towels.
“I am so glad to see you,” said
Daysey Mayme. “I was hoping you
would come. 1 know," seeing the wom
an's look of surprise, "that we are not
acquainted, but are we not all of one
family? Are we not sisters? Let me
show you our newest thing in guest
towels.”
She powdered her nose with one
hand, spreading the towels on the
counter with the other.
“The very smallest towels are called
guest towels; they are that size to
match the size of the welcome.”
She laughed, but the shopper didn’t
smile.
"Perhaps you don’t laugh,” said Day
sey Mayme, "because you are a guest.”
