GRANDFATHER’S FLING.
Broadways belief in himself received a
momentary setback. His grandfather!
What could the girl mean? Why, his
■nardfather had been the most staid of
men If he had had a fault it had been
that he had remained in his home too
fl „=elv and l ad paid too much attention
the dictates of his wife!
■■Whit do 'OU moan about my grand

Broadway would have had a hilarious mo

was taking „
"Your grandfather was a spendthrift.
we „t 'it the determined girl. "I have
been told the st my and I know that it’s
true Ymir grandfather, after he had
been married just two years, went to
New York and Broadway.”
' -How long did lie stay?" demanded
Jackson.
"Two weeks.”
"Well, there, you see.”
"He didn’t come back.” went on the
girl, "until your grandmother went to
N»w York herself and got him out of the
Astor house, where lie had a room at 56
"There, you see. ” repeated Broadway,
"tr o weeks at $6 a day isn’t much.
"BUT HE CAME BACK.”
"But it was the attitude he took," said
Josie, "and for a man in his position
then, and the times he lived in, it was
almost as much as spending a small for
tune would be now."
"But, you see.” said Jackson, "he real
ly came hack, after all.”
"He came hack because his wife took
him." explained Josie, "and he stayed
at home after that only because for the
rest of their lives she henpecked him
into staying.”
She was smiling through tears now.
"Y’ou really wouldn’t want to be hen
pecked and made a man of In that way,”
she said, with another of her moments
of exquisite drollery. ”A lienpecked
made-man always bears the marks of the
pecks.”
While the to him absurd quality of
what the girl was saying had not been
lost upon Jackson in the earlier moments
of their talk, yet the real basis of her
truly feminine words had its effect upon
him. There was some truth In it all.
While he. as of a later and more sophis
ticated generation, might smile at that
long ago extravagance of the Astor house
and the $6 a day. he reflected that his
grandfather probably had not smiled at it.
1’ had been in a. sense deadly serious
with him. It had represented to his
grandfather the top of the imagination,
the utmost crest of a wave of willful
folly, a devilish and daring thing for a
nan of his grandfather's period, and born
and bred in that elemental countryside
of long ago.
‘‘IT'S IN THE BLOOD "
Perhaps Josie was right. Looking back
upon his own monumental folly—which
had never loomed larger than' today—
Broadway saw that heredity could ac
count for it. very easily.
, ’ lhen into his mood, his warring mental
‘tnpulses, came the words that Josie had
spoken on the night of their first meet
ing. when she had given him the little
package of wafers made in his own plant:
Hand It down to your children, and to
.'our children's children, and so on—and
so on—"

arms stiffened as their muscles prepared
to seize and hold this woman, and there
came the old brute knowledge that if he
forcibly drew her to himself her resistance
would be at an end.
But the muscles did not do more than
harden slightly. His arms did not move.
He did not act upon the knowledge that
comes at some time or other to all de
scendants of the men of the caves and
forests of a time long before the stone
age.
For a new Broadway Jones—born the
day he entered Jonesville—had come to
almost perfect and complete conscious
ness. He could seize and carry Josie by
storm, but if the taint of the spendthrift
was in his blood he would not subject her
to the moral hazards of life with him.
Not only the spendthrift had been dis
solved in the solvent of his new attitude
toward himself, ftut the old selfishness
had gone.
THE IMPORTANT THINGS.
Then came lowly, brokenly, grief em
balmed in every word, those tones that
had the power of moving Jackson as
neither God nor man had:
“I must have seemed to you—to be
leading you—on—l was leading you on
—because I wanted—l want your—oh,
when I put away the specter of your an
cestor I wanted only you—Jackson—only
you. But it wouldn't be right. There
are other things in the world more im
portant than just ourselves—our per
sonal characters—the good we must do
rests upon them—we couldn’t, we can’t—”
She stopped, her breast rising and fall
ing convulsively. Then for a moment
the eyes of Broadway clung to hers. There
was nothing between their souls. These
two suffered, yet grew calm upon the
broad plain of a mutual renunciation.
• » »
The hearty voices of Bob and his fa
ther, now in perfect understanding, came
from the road, as the two walked to the
gate of Jones Manor. And at the same
time the judge and his wife and Clara
drew near to Josie and Jackson, too. Even
the judge’s wife was willing to agree that
Jackson and Josie had had all the time
in the world.
As the younger Wallace entered through
the gate he was saying:
"The town itself has a population of
about four thousand. The plant employs
over seven hundred of them.”
Then seeing Jackson standing with Jo
sie, he added.
"Oh. here’s Jackson now. Tell the gov
ernor all about it. will you? Tell him
how you turned down the trust’s million
and a half, too."
"What—a million—er yes—why of
course,” faltered out Jackson, neither
knowing what his friend had said nor
what he himself was saying.
While Josie turned instinctively and
hurriedly to obey partlj - her impulse of
flying into the maternal arms of Mrs.
Spotswood, the elder Wallace, who was
too intent upon the business matter be
fore him to notice anything else, said to
Jackson:
HIS COURSE APPROVED.
“Mr. Jones, my son has just told me
of the grand single-handed fight you're
making against this giant corporation.
I admire W>ur pluck, sir. ou deserve
all the encouragement any assistance
possible. Believe me. the Empire Ad
vertising Company is with you heart and
soul. Your loyalty to the people of this
town is commendable, sir. You deserve
great credit, and I want to shake your
hand."
Jackson was now able to reply, and the
new youth that he had become was quick
to give proper credit.
"Thanks. Mr. Wallace,” he said, "but
much of the real credit is due to Bob.”
“My son has told me of your modesty."
said the father, “but do not attempt to
deceive me. He has also told me of your
wonderful business punch—something Bob
has lacked, and something that I have
longed to see him develop. I am very
proud that you have taken him into the
firm, and if advertising has any market
value we’ll fight them to the finish. I
have promised my son to return here Mon
day morning. I may have a proposition
to put before you. I'd like to see him
an equal partner in a business with such
a promising future.”
“I don’t know what to say, Mr. Wal
lace,” said Jackson.
Wallace senior misunderstood him. and
assumed that Jackson was putting him
off.
A NEW MYSTERY.
“Oh, Monday’s time enough,” he said,
“I have an -appointment with Pembroke
at his house tomorrow. After ten min
utes talk with me T promise you the Con
solidated people will make no further at
tempts to absorb."
The old Broadway • Jones or the new
one in his infancy would have thought
that this speech opened the gates of all
possibilities, but the new one did not,'
since it meant that there was to be less
of hardship, less of peril, in the under
taking be was to set for himself. Indeed,
this, in the mood of Josie and himself,
would only be another barrier between
them.

DECIDE THAT YOURSELF.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am twenty and in love with a
young lady two and a half years rny
Junior.
My friends think I should give
her up because of her young ap
pearance. P. E. R.
If you love each other, that would be
the strangest reason for breaking off
the relationship ever known.
By all means, be true to the girl, and
rejoice, that she is so favored. To look
younger than one's years is a virtue.
And your friends regard it as a fault!
WAIT A YEAR.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am eighteen years old. and a
year ago became engaged to a
young man of 21. We were engaged
eight months. My mother objected
on account of money matters, and
then we parted. I have met many
young men. but none appeal to me
as he does, and I find I love him
still. A few days ago I received a
letter from him saying that he
could not do without me and
wishes to keep company with me
again and mv mother still objects.
A. B. C.
You are only eighteen, and he is only
21. Too young to marry if there were
no other obstacles. Walt ? year. If in
that time he doesrr’t make good in your
mother's eyes wait another year. Y’ou
will never regret it.
TELL THEM SO.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am deeply in love with a friend
of my brother and do not know the
way to show it. I have been in his
company only once, but my mother
was there and I could not say much
to him. Last Sunday evening my
brother bad a lady to the house.

Cottolene
makes delicious pastry
It’s the last word in pastry
making. It makes cakes so
light and airy that every mor
sel tastes like “ more.”
Digestible too, because Cot
tolene food is never greasy.
Cottolene is better than
lard, because it’s a vegetable
—not an animal —product. It
is richer—use one-third less.
Cottolene is cheaper than
butter —costs no more than
lard, and will give better re
sults than either. Use one
third less than
butter also.
Cottolene ia never
sold in bulk al
ways in air-tight
tin pails, which pro
tect it from dirt,
dust and odors. It
is always uniform
and dependable.
