A DILEMMA.
Mr. Bertram Lamar sat on the arm
of a chair in the hall of the hotel at
Scarborough and idly swung hie foot
Mr. Lamar was bored, An extended
acquaintance with this young man
forces me to confess that he was not
often afflicted in that way. We know
that noman can aspire to be of the
highest fashion without constantly ex-
periencing the pangs of this distin-
guished ailment, and yet Mr. Lamar
was unquestionably of the highest
faghion. The most cursory glance
would tell you this. Any one could
see that he belonged to the best people
that he was used to the best people
that only the best Jeopls would be
bearable to him. But now he was
genuinely bored.
Ladies passed—old ones, who swept
up the dust with trains, and who
creaked as they moved, as if they
wanted oiling ; young ones in light
frocks and wide, flowered hats cast a
shadow over the clearest eyes. They
kept banging gen the glass doors and
going out into the blaze of sun beyond,
with a bursting into bloom of lace par-
asols, or coming into the cool of the
hall, with the rustling, silken sheating
of the parasols suddenly furled and the
tapping of little heels on the hard floor
He never glanced at them. But they
did at him—swiftly, obliquely—from
under their hat brim, out of the shad-
ow, He looked away, with raised
chin and indolently drooped eyelids.
There was one girl—she kept going
to and fro—and as he looked on the
ground he could see the hem of her
dress and her feet. They were pretty
feet in yellow shoes, small and pointed.
Mr. Lamar found himself ruminating.
“Suppose the head is as pretty as the
feet. But itnever is. There's a law
of compensating which prevents that.
The head which belongs to those feet
is thirty-five.” And helooked up. The
head matched the feet to perfection.
Mr. Lamar felt that he didn’t look
bored any longer. Rather, however,
than sacrifice this dearly bought
and enviable condition of being he
turned his back on that enchanting
head, and sauntered into an adjoining
room, There would be no one to look
at there.
The room was empty, cool and dim.
It had oak chairs and tables and writ-
ing desks, sea green walls and a great
window opening on the balcony. Out-
side there were ladies of uninteresting
ages sitting under a forest of parasols.
Beyond were velvety sweeps of close |
cropped turf; dappled with short shad-
ows shrinking tothe tree roots, Splin-
ters of dusty sunlight crept down the
boles of the stately elms and trembled
on the white dresses of paesing girls.
Mr. Lamar felt that he might gaze up-
on this prospect for an infinitude of
time and remained bored.
But fate willed otherwise. As he en-
tered the room he saw something on
the floor near the table. He picked it
up. It was a band about an inch and
a half wide, covered with puckered
yellow ribbon, and with one end run
‘through a clasp of dull silver showing
a monogram in small diamonds, There
was a bunch of narrower yellow ribbon
begide the clasp, each end finished
with a little tongueless silver bell. It
appeared to Lamar from some hang-
ing filaments of thread that the two
ends had once been stitched together
He looked curiously at his find.
“What can it be ?”” he mused, star-
ing at it.
We have said that he was young,
and came of the best people, and with
the best people there is always a doubt
as to whether they wearsuch vulgar
things as stockings or possess such un-
mentionable things as legs. “Wings,
not legs and feet, shall move them,” as
the poet gracefully expresses it.
Lamar first thought that he would
take it to the office, but curiosity com-
pelled him to study it: It might be
worn round the neck ;but not long
enough. He drew the severed ends
together and held it off from him, eye-
ing it dubiously and reflectively pull-
ing his small moustache. Oh, yes, of
course: Now he saw. How dense
he'd been! A bracelet. Holding it
together he pushed his hands through it
and swung on his wrist.
“I don't thing I ever saw a bracelet
just like that before,” he thought,
moving it around snd looking at it
with his head on one side.
And then, as he looked at it, came a
sudden flash of wakening light, and for
a moment he stood staring at it in stup-
efied horror as it hung over his wrist.
With the return of consciousness he
crumpled it up and crushed it into his
pocket. What should he do with it?
If he took it to the office the owner
would never dare to ‘claim it. If he
found out who she was he would nev-
er dare to offer it.
He could imagine the scene. A
lovely and youthful lady is discovered
walking in the corridors. To her ap-
pears Mr. Bertram Lamar in full even-
ing dress, with a white pink in his but-
tonhole. Then drawing a package
from his pocket, Mr. Lamar, presents
it to her murmuring, “Yours, I be-
lieve,” and vanished through a trap
door.
The Lamars were famous. for their
chivalrous’ attitude toward the sex.
What should he do to spare her feel
ings and his own? And he turned
the cause of his perturbation over in
his pocket.
Just then he heard a step outside—
a feminine step. With a guilty start
lve retreated from the table, fell into a
¢hair and seized the morning paper, in
which he buried his head. Anyone
noting this fact would of course imagine
that he slambered, and feel themselves
safe from espial.
“Tt is she,” thought Bertram. seized
with guilty tremors. ‘She hascome to
hunt for it,” and he remained motion-
less.
So did
she. There was not the
slightest vibrating rustle from her si-
lent figure, Bertram rattled the paper,
stabbed a little hole through it with
his finger and peeped at her. She was
standing in the doorway peeping about
the room, and she was the young lady
with the yellow shoes. She was
charmingly pretty in a light dress of
striped flannel and a loose shirt of thin
silk made like a boy's. Under the
turndown collar was knotted a four-in-
hand necktie of white pique and about
her waist was a woven silk belt clasp-
ed with a silver S. She was slowly
sweeping the room with a long glance,
only her head moving, her figure
firmly erect, her right thumb in her
belt and her left hand . hanging by her
gide and lightly clasping a little leath-
er thong which wound about her
knuckles. As to her head—that love-
ly head with strong brown. hair curling
up crieply under her sailor hat, deli-
cately rounded cheeks and gravely
pouting lips—it was an image of soft,
delicious beauty. At her side sat a lit-
tle pug dog on its haunches, gasping
and rolling its eyes.
She cast a hurried glance at the
gentleman reading the paper and walk-
ed into the room looking intently about
the floor.
“What would she say,” thought Ber-
tram, as she paesed him in her search,
“If I-were to innocently ask her what
she was looking for and gallantly offer
to help her find it ? But I'll spare her
that.” :
She was certainly hunting thorough-
ly. She moved several of the chairs,
drew up the lace curtains and looked
under them and peeped into all the
corners.
When she had searched everywhere
‘she straightened herself with a sigh,
threw one last reluctant look about the
room, and éalling to the pug, “Come
along, dearest ; it isn’t here,” depart-
ed.
Bertram laid down the paper and
looked after her. She appeared to
him to have a singular amount of sang
froid aleo a very graceful back.
Mr. Lamar was not bored that after-
noon. He was consumed with perplexi-
ty. How could he return the lost trea-
sure to the owner ‘without causing her
embarrdssment, without making her
his enemy for lite ? If it had been any-
thing else how delightfully he could
have broken the ice withit! But to
break the ice with that historic em-
blem—impossible |
“I must give it to her this evening,”
‘he thought. “I'll wrap it up in paper
andtie one of the ribbons round it
that are on that handkerchief case
‘Milly gave me. Then, if she asks me
—ag of course she will—whatis it, I'll
say carelessly : “Oh, ncthing! Just
a trifle I think belongs to you. Don’t
hurry to open it. Have you noticed
what a beautiful night it 1s? And so
I'll engage herin absorbing conversa.
tion. = But if the conversation is not
sufficiently absorbing and she begins
‘to open it I must flee from the wrath
tocome. And when nextI meet her,
dying to speak or even bow to her,
there will be a wall of ice reised be-
tween us. She will turn her profile
toward me and become engrossed in
the beauties of the landscape. Such is
the irony of fate.”
At 7 o'clock Mr. Lamar come slow-
ly down the broad stairs, looking as
handsome as a young Dionysius, in
his dress suit, his shining shirt bosom
and a white pink in his buttonhole.
The hall was full of moving figures
and a blaze of light and color.
Mr. Lamar was too perturbed to
mingle with the gay, loud voiced,
laughing crowd. He wished for soli-
tude and directed his steps toward the
little writing room. He had not wrap-
ped the treasure in paper, not tied it
with a ribbon from his handkerchief
case: He had not done anything with
it. He did not dare, The sight of its
owner might inspire him to the desper-
ate pitch of boldly offering it to he, or
suggest to him some cunning way of
returning it without betraying the iden-
tity of the finder. With these ideas in
his mind he carried it still in his pock-
et in company with his keys.
The gas in the writing room was
not lit. Mr: Lamar went to the open
window. Just outside it on the bal-
cony was the young lady who had
worn the yellow shoes. She was read-
ing and rocking, her pug in her lap,
and if she was pretty in her flannel
morning dress words cannot describe
her 1n a mist of fine black gauze cut
square around her neck, and showing
her arms to the elbow. Her skin was
as white and flawless as a blanched
almond. There was the gleam of a
old pin from the shadow of her dark
air, and a jewel hanging ground her
neck rose and fell with her quiet
breath. Assheread she absently pull-
the pug's ears, which lay with its eyes
half open and its head against her
arm.
Lamar looked around. She turned
the page. The pug, disturbed, rose to
its fore paws, gazed at her with an ex-
pression of idiotic fondness, and tried |
to lick her chin. She avoided this
demonstration of aftection by moving
her chin from side to side, keeping her
eyes still on the book. The pug con-
tinuing, she struck it gently, observ-
ing.
“Don’t, you bad, little. abominable
dog!”
“] beg your pardon,” said Lamar
suddenly from: the window.
The lady looked up with raised eye-
brows of polite inquiry.
“I have something of yours, said
the young man desperately and in a
low tone.
“Yes? What is it?”
“]—I—don’t quite know. Or rath-
er—Well—But—Um! I didn’t like
to leave it at the office. I thought’'—
He leaned out of the window with his
closed hand extended. ‘Here it is.”
She held out her hand, and he drop-
ped it in. She looked and gave an ex-
clamation of joy that caused the pug to
jump to the ground.
“Oh, how glad I am! Thanks so
much. Thanks awfully. I was afraid,
it was lost. Ien’t that lucky?’ and
she looked affectionately at the returned
treasure with her head on one side.
There was light enough to see her
face distinctly. She did not exhibit a |
sign of embarrassment, not the ghost |
of a blush. Lamar felt a sudden chill |
of disappointment.
“You found it there?’ she said, in-
dicating the writing room, and looked
at him with frank, candid eyes. ‘Yes,
there’s where it was lost.” :
“J—TI suppose go,” said Lamar, with
a wan smile.
“J looked for it myself this morning
all over,” she continued, “under every-
thing, but it was gone.” ;
“Yes,” said the young man, with a
fatuously inquiring air. *‘If she knew
1 was behind the paper she'd ask me
why I dido’t give it to her then and
there, and what the deuce would I
say ?"’
“I value this yery much,” she went
on, turning it over in her hand.
sy ron imagine 80.”
“You see, there is onl
There is not a single
where.” :
She looked smilingly into his face
Lamar stared at her in stupefied hor-
ror.
“Only one—did you say ?”” he man-
aged to articulate in a faint voice.
“Only one,” she repeated, nodding
her head. “It was made to order.”
There was a moment of silence. La-
mar made no comment, but continued
to stare vacantly at her. He was
thinking : “It must have been an ac-
cident. She can’t be a veteran of
war.”
“When you have only one, and that
such-a pet,” she continued, not notic-
ing his silence, you like to have every-
thing as pretty as possible.”
“Yes, yes. Of course, of course.
ejaculated Lamar. laughing idiotically
“If you have only one, I expect 1t
must be somewhat of a treasure,” he
thought. "Then he added boldly, but
with the air. of confiding a piece of
news, “I have two.”
“Two 2" said the young lady, with
vivacious interest. ‘ What kind ?”
Lamar looked askance at her alarm-
.ed silence. Was she doubly afflicted ?
She was stroking the pug with the tips
of her fingers, and there was nothing
in her placid ‘expression to suggest
mania of any form.
“The same as everybody else's,” he
answered with some hauteur. ‘Are
the People in this part of the country
in the habit of managing with one ?”’
“As a rule, they have only one ; it's
go.much less bother. Though, to be
sure, I have a 'friead who has—let me
gee~—yes, eleven,”
“She must be a centipede,” thought
Lamar. “J seem to be encountering
remarkable freaks of nature. There ie
a fortune waiting here for any one who
wants to start a museum.” Then he
remarked aloud, regarding her with
his head on one side, a tolerant, tord
smile on his lips, “There must be quite
an “embarrass de richesse,” especially
when you're walking.”
“They do get in the way,” admitted
the young lady, ‘but most of them are
well trained.”
Very clever of them, I am sure,”
murmured Lamar, feeling that he was
about to swoon.
There was another short silence,
during which the girl continued to ex-
amine her restored treasure, Presently
she said, musingly : “I see the threads
are broken. She has broken them
once before, though I don’t see how
she can possibly do it.”
Lamar only started and swallowed.
She held his glance with a horrible,
eerie fascination.
“You know she loves to run to me,”
she prattled on. “She ran away from
me this morning, and when she came
back it was gone. She must have
crept under the table and not come out
until she had got it off.”
“Who is she?’ asked Lamar ina
troubled voice.
“She ? Why, Bobo—my pug. Isn't
she a beauty ? Come up here, Bobo’ —
patting her knee. ‘I want to put your
collar on, and show this gentleman,
who was kind enough to return it, how
pretty you look when you're all dress
ed up.” She held the bandaround the
dog’s neck, and turning to Lamar, said
with laughing archnesss, “Isn’t it be-
coming.”
Lamar sat down on the window sill.
He took up the morning paper and be-
gan to fan himself with it, though the
evening had grown unmistakably cool.

The Statesof Montana and Washington are
very fully described in two folders issued by
the Northern Pacific Railroad, entitled “Gold-
en Montana” and “Fruitful Washington.” The
folders contain good county maps of the states

mate, lands, resources, and other subjects of
interest to capitalists, business men or settlers.
Holders of second class tickets to North Pa-
cific Coast points, via Northern Pacific Rail
road, are allowed the privileges of stopping
over at Spokane, Washington, and points west

tions of this magnificent state before locating.
Northern Pacific throngh express trains carry
free colonist sleeping cars from St. Paul, and
Pullman tourist sleepers from Chicago (via
Wisconsin Central Line) to Montana and Pa-
cific Coast points daily.
California tourists, and travelers to Montana
and the North Pacific Coast, can purchase
round trip excursion tickets at rates which
amount to but little more than the one way
fare. Choice of routes is allowed on these
tickets, which are good for three or six months
according to destination, and permit of stop-
overs.
The elegant equipment on the Northern Pa.
cific Railroad; the dinner car service; the

(via both Wisconsin Central Line and C. M. &
St. P. Ry.) to Pacific Coast points, and the
most magnificent scenery of seven states, are
