Mr. Wayne, stamping back iuto Lis
private office. "Any one else would

in ft defonsive tone, as he followed Lim
back, ' 1 didn t think it would make
much difference. Tho young lady is
very capable and she soemeil to want
the place ao badly. She ia very poor,
t Sir. and sunnorts her mother. I know
something about her, you aee."
"Oh! Some flame of yours, I aup
pose, Burns? Very nice arrangement
for you, no doubt.
"I beg your pardon, air," said Burns,
in an offended manner. "I am a mar
ried man."
By JoTe, so you are," said Roland
Wayne, with a laugh. "I had forgot
ten that. Though," he added humor
onsly, "that doesn't always make a dif
, fereuce. Well, try Ler, anyhow.
Where's the mail, please?"
"I tell you what, Bnrns," one of the
Other clerks observed, when that indi
! Tidnal finally emerged from Mr.
! "Wayne's office, "the boss ia in a fly
', humor, isn't he?"
"He's all right," Burns answered
i warmly. "He has given me a ticket to
Atlantic City and two days oft"
; , The clerk whistled.
"Why, I thought he was going to
i take your head oft"
j "You don't know Lim. I am sure it
! is no shame to a man whose nerves are
, always twinging with neuralgia if La
i loses Lis temper now and then."
' Eoland, meanwhile, had taken np his
pen and was writing a lengthy account
of Brisket's new deal in P., Y. and M.
If the cat jumps Una way," he aaid
in conclusion, "the bears Lave got him
sure. Danbury is on our aide. He has
j given Brisket the cold shoulder, and, if
! I am not mistaken somebody will get
j woefully left. I don't intend that it
j shall be me. If everything goes as I
think it will I shall pocket 8200,000,
j and then I am going out of the broker
age business. It doesn't suit me, and
iny health is so poor that I must get
away somewhere or I shall go to pieces. "
"I beg your pardon, air," said a soft,
j tremulous voice at his elbow. "I am
i Miss Archer, Mr. Wayne."
j Roland dropped his pen and rose po
j litely as he saw a slight, graceful figure
I in black standing before him.
1 "Be seated, Miss Archer," ho said
j with a smilo, which no man could have
i: withheld when ho saw tho fairness of
Her tresh young face, and that shy,
sweot flush on hor cheeks. "What can
I do for you ?"
"I am tho telephone operator," she
begau rapidly, and with a norvousness
she could not conceal. "I could not
help hearing what you said to Mr. Burns
a little while ago, and and I came to
say that if you are not satisfied to have
me in the office you need only say so."
"Not satisfied 1" Roland echoed in
manifest confusion. "Well, really, you
know, I Lave not given you a trial ; and
as to what I aaid a while aaro. I am sorrr. I
Miss Archer. I am ofraid you will have
I to set it down to neuralgia. I am quite
i Willing to have you stay if you will"
I "You are very kind,' she said, lacing
and unlacing her fingers in some con
, fusion. . "I should like to stay indeed
it is very important that I hnrM t,...
1 1 this position or something eke. But if
5 'What you say is true if a broker's of.
. mot i ii u jjutva ir woman i i think
I would rather not stay."
, How Ronald Wayne abused himself
; when he thought of his careless words,
and then marked how her lips quivered,
how her evelids droooed to It A An Vanlr I
W the tears ! e
I j "I think I spoke too hastily, Miss
Archer," he said. -A lady's place is
where she makes it. We are not a lot
of savages," he added with a warm
ismile. "If you remain here I think I
i can assure you courteous and consider
ate treatment on the part of every one
in this office. If such is not oeoorded
you you have only to inform me and I
will know the reason why. "
"You are very kind," said the girl,
with a bright, Hooting smile. "I should
like to stay. I really can not afford to
fesign my position."
f "Then stay bv all means." sniil T?r,lna
Ind, to the edification of the clorks, ho
jot up and opened the door for her
irhen she went out.
, After that he caught himself listening
o the soft yet distaut voice in the other
I'oom holding conversation over the
phone.

letely."
He was walking up and down the
room, trying to repross the nervous agi
tation which attacked him.
"Sevon 0'oloekl" he said, glancing at
tho timo. "The office is closed long
ago, In another hour Brisket will sign
over those bonds, and then hollo!" as
the shrill alarm of the telephone sum
moned him across the room. "There
is no one at the office," ha thought,
taking up the receiver. "I wondor
w hat's up now? Hello! Who are you?"
"Helen Archer, Mr. Wayne," said a
voice ho knew well.
"Why, what are you doing at the
office thin time of night ?" he asked, in
voluntarily. "I am not at the office that is, not
at your office. I am at tho Central
Station. Can you hear me ?"
"Yes."
"I have something important to tell
you. Our wire got crossed with Mr.
Briskot'a to-day, and I could hear every
word said over it. I could not under
stand what they were talking about,
only Mr. Brisket was talking to a man
liamod Danbury."
"Danbury 1" exclaimed Wayne, in
great excitement.
"They were talking about bonds,
and said a lot of things I couldn't com
prehend, but at last your named was
mentioned.
'"This will put Wayne in a hole,'
Mr. Brisket suid.
' 'Yea ' said Mr. Danbury it'll bury
him alive. It's a onnA fi,inn i,.
shelved to-night. There is no danger,
I suppose, of his getting wind of this
before 8 o'clock.'
'No danger at all,' said Mr. Bris
ket 'if you don't go back on me. There
will be a new deal around and we'll
boost the market oror Wayne's head.'
"Do you hoar distinctly what I say?"
she inquired.
"Yes, yes!" Wayne said, excitedly.
What else r
"Nothing more that I could under
stand, except that they were to meet
at the Continental Hotel to-night I
came here because I was afraid to talk
from the office. I thought some one
might get on our wire, and I have you
here direct. That's ail. Good -by."
For Roland Watim In A
the houae was the matter of a very
short while after Le had received thjs
message from Helen Archer. His illness
and the danger of exposure were quite
forgotten.
He was present, very unexpectedly to
Mr. Brisket and Mr. Danhn
evening conference at tho hotel.
T A. . . . . . .
xt was a stormy scene that ensued be
tween Borland Wnvnn and ihABA fwA
men who Lad combined against him a
scene irom which the young broker is
sued pale with exhaustion, but still
triumphant.

Burns, gloomily.

said, as nho came in. "Thin rnnfimn

It was Ronald Wayne who rose and
held out his hand warmly.
Miss Archer," he sai.l, "I have como
to thank you for tho service you did
me last night. Thanks to you, I have
paved my fortune from absoluto ruin.
If it had not boon for your prompt ac
tion I should have boon a beggar to
day. "
"I I had no idea it was ao serious
as tLat," Helen said Lastily. "I am very
glad I could do you such a sorvice."
"I shall never forget it," Roland said,
with a steadfast look into Ler aoft, gray
eyes, "and I Lave learned a wholesome
lesson. When I went into the broker
age business I did not dream that so
muck of my intercourse would be with
men wholly devoid of conscience or
principle. 1 am sick and disgusted.
Last night I had expected to make
8200,000 by one transaction. To-day
1 find myself thanking heaven and
you that I got out without losing any
thing. I am tired of such ohanoes. I
do not feel that I can enter into con
tract with men like Brisket and Dan
bury without compromising myself,
and so I have decided to get out alto
gether." "I understand that you are going out
of business," said Helen, quietly.
"Yes, I am. I shall close up the
office as soon as possible."
"I expected that, and and I don't
wish to trouble you, Mr. Wayne, but if
you see an opening for me anywhere,
would you be so klud as to remember
me?" (
"I have just been talking to your
mother," said Roland, bowing to Mrs.
Archer. "I am going abroad. My
Loalth requires it, but I do not like the
idea of going alone. I want you and
your mother to accompany me. It will
do you both good indeed, you need it
as muoh as I and I won't take a re
fusal." This is Low Helen Archer took hor

another Hindoo woman, Miss Oorindu-
rajuiu, has begun a course in Spurgeon
Square, London. She had been house
surgoon in the hospital at Mysore, and
tue .Mysore government lias given
her tvo years' absenoe and her eipen
ses. Perhaps tho only woman who was
ever buriod like a warrior with the stars
aad stripe for a winding-sheet was the
late Mrs. Cotter. She will be remem
bered for Ler bravery at the battle of
Tort Donelson. when she snatchnd th
colors of Ler husband's regiment from
their fallen bearer, and rushed through
the smoke with the flag in one hand
and a sword ia the other. After the war
sho made the care of veterans and thoir
families tho charge of her life. She is
buried among the soldiers in Arlington
Cemetery.
It is not true, it now appears, that
ladies, to the number of live or six, aro
in the habit of following the Devon
and Somerset stag hounds astride upon
their horses, after the manner of men.
Only one female rider makes bold to be
stride her horse with these famous
hounds, and as yet she has no imitators.
One swallow does not make a summer,
and it is not probable that this bold,
and very likely bad, rider's example
will afloct hor sisters, or abolish the
aide-saddlo. She is probably a bad
rider, becauso aomo horsemen say that
a cidH saddlo gives a more secure seat
than a man's. To rido in a side-saddle
is also a prettier attitude for a woman
than to nit astraddle of her horso. In
parts of tho south of Europe women
habitually bestrido their mules and
ponies, and the seat is ugly. If hunt-iug-womon
find they uoither look woll
nor go well ou u man's saddle they will
certainly abido by tho aide-saddlo of
thoir fore-mothers.

while spinning; a folding basin for
travelers, a folding flat-iron, a novel
bird-cage chain, a musical fountain,
which renders music while throwing a
stream of water from a statuette with
such precision that not a drop escapes
to spoil the carpot; a dress shield and
a "sweat band" for hats, both said
to be superior to anything previously
known; a carriage telephone, a musical
paper-weight, and a lock which enables
any one, by simply looking at the key,
to determine whether the door is fast
